Hoc a I ,$ t c in s
FLEA-.l3aromv;—lni the.wiee economy
cat' nature there seems to be some palpable
. .16se for every created thing—except the
.. , flea; and after several favorable opportu
nitiesnot of ourown choice—for study
q;lng his.habits and character, we have or
t,:rived at the deliberate conviction that he
.1:1s an expensive luxury for which there Is
7ito compensating advantage. Ho is a
...4yegular " sucker," living off the public;
:: ; atiti might be dispenSed with without the
:'9east inconvenience to man or beast. As
a jumper the flea is huge. As a bounty
cJumper he would have been superb. As
bite-ist he is a success—as a "back-bi-
ter" he is unequalled. Yet with all these
good qualities, he is a coward and won't
make a regular stand up _fight, or give
fair warning of his approach, like the
courageous mosquito. He fights under
cover—frequently under bed-cover and
"fleas from the wrath to come" at the
first symptom of danger. Dr. Webster
has evidently ".been there," for he tells
us "its bite is very troublesome." We
",! ; have frequently fete the truth of his re
marks. Webster also tells us the Amer--
cent' flea is descended from the Saxon
"ilea," the German " floh," the Danish
" vloo," the Scotch " ilech," and the
Icelandish " floc;" and we take the liber
ty of saying it is a mighty mean critter
to conic from such respectable patent
age. That the flea is of ancient m iglu
we have no reason to doubt, for in
;the good book it is mentioned as "the
wickeda, when no man psueth." --
"Likef,fle in
t'tesar, Napoleon and Ben Nutlet,
the flea has a fondness for human gore.—
,
AAn eminent Tishman once remarked that
when you put your finger upon him he
~iiisn't there. Which wasn't bad for an
ishman,mor was it so "slow" for the
'ilea. Fleas seem to have a special fond
treqs for dogs, but we are not aware the
arrection is reciprocated. We once new
''a young lady who was so tender-hearted
that when she caught a flea, she wrapped
ik it in a piece of paper and threw it out of,
the window. The fleas wouldn't have
done half as much for her. It is not at
all strange that the Ilea is a phle-boto
= mist. We have seen it related that foxes
lid themselves of fleas by going to the
water and gradually immersing them
,elves. The farther their bodies are im
' the wa ter, thehigher gothe
liens,
, le
?fleas, until only one ear is left out, when
suddenly?a up comes a paw and they are
Ihrushed into the " briny deep" and meet
, a watery grave. A pressing necessity for
r"''' further investigations into this painful
subject requires this article to be imme
diately brought to a close.
FIREMAN'S PARADE.—The " Good Will
Plose Company," with their splendid new
Stettmer, took part in the Firemen's pa
ade, at Harrisburg, on Saturday last, and
',were highly complimented on their al )-
, pearance by the Harrisburg papers. Their
en , rine was beautifully decorated and
", drawn by four gaily caparisoned horses.—
P t There were forty members equipped and
in line, headed by the Garrison Band,
Amid under the marsbalship of Jos. W.
Ogilby. They returned home about eight
o'clock in the evening; and after unload
Bing their Engine, marched to their En
fl.4gine House, accompanied by a largo
hterowd of citizens, where, after some mu
pie by the Baud and mutual cheering, the
vi k parade was dismissed. We learn that
about a dozen companies participated in
the parade and that it was a very credit
able affair—for Harrisburg.

Local. Papers. —There are many per
sons who either ,lako no paper at all or
else hike one from a distant , city, and
when they wish to see what is transpir
ing in their own neighborhood, they beg
or steal the local paper from some citizen
more liberal than themselves. Many
men of this kind are engaged in business,
and frequently grumble because people
do not patronize “ home Industry,” when
they practice the ver3 r thing' of which

Worth Knowing.— A poison of any
conceiveable description, and degree of
potency, which has been swallowed in
tentionally or by accident, may bo ren
dered almost instantaneously harmless by
swallowing two gills of sweet oil. An in
dividual with a very'strong constitution
should take twice the quantity. This oil
will neutralize every form of vegetable or
mineral poison with, which physicians
and chemists are acquainted.
. The shooting season for reed birds and
all others of the feathered tribe, will com

is hardly bhe who is not ou the qui vive.
Game of all kinds will be most abundant
this fall and winter, moio so, than for
many seasons past.
