ABOUT MOTHS AXU MILLERS.
Mra. "12. A. K.," Taunton, Massachu
aults, asks tho following: I. "Do ull
kinds of millers muku moths? 2. What
lime in the year are motha lonned?
3. JJii tnSfJr::m. hi wisilen iK)da an
the year, or only in warm .weather ?"
Am. 1. Tbo writer, a lady, evident
ly wishes to know about tbo clothe
moth, and her first question may bu
answered No. Hut us the terms
"Moth" und ' Miller" are used in a con
fusing manner, we must explain. The
scaly-w inged insects ( Lrpittoptcrn ) are
divided into butterflies and moths.
Tho larvro or caterpillar hatched Irom
the egg, is a great feeder; when it is
full grown it liirma a pupa, or chrysa
lis, keeps quiet for a time, and then
cullies out a perfect winged insect bus
slender feelers with a (wooly) knob on
the end, and rests with all its wings
erect, it is a butterfly, and if it rusts
wub two or all ol its wings spread out,
il is a moth, and these usually fly at
night. They vary in sine, fnnn very
minute lo large insects wilb six or even
nine inches spmul of wing. Rome
moths are culled millers, aud somu peo
pie give the name miller to all mollis
that are nut showy. It will he seen
that tbe name moth has a wide appli
cation. In spcuking ot tho clothes
moth, it has become to bo culled simply
moth. Il is it cutoi pillar which, feed

into abatbot wurra water, Irom which,
as yet, bo bas only emerged once or

Throughout this bolt of country beca

Small Mean Tbe noworol mon
ey is on the whole overestimated. The
greatest thing which wera done lor
the world have not been accomplished
by rich men, or by subscription list,
but by men generally of small pecuni
ary means. The greatest thinkers,
discoverers, inventors and artist bav
been men ol moderate wealth, many
ol them little raised above tbe condi
tion of manual labors, in point of
world.y circumstance. And it will
always be so. Kicbes are oftenor an
impediment than a stimulus 10 action;
and in many case they are quite aa
much a misuirtuno as a blessing. Tha
youth who inherita wealth i apt to
hare life mndo too ar for him, and

nothing left to deaire. Having no
