A 20-months-old child in Oranite-
ville, Cal., while standing in the door I
of its home, was charmed by a rat-.
tlesnak, which coilui itself in lro:.t
of him. It was but two leet away,
and was gently moving its head
backward and forward and looking

WITIlorT A NAME.
Captain Charles II. Davis, of Bal
timore, who has just returned from
a cruise on the Carrihean Sea,
brought home with him from Swan
Island, two strange animals for
which he can find no name. They
are dark gray in color, about the size
of cats, but with heads, teeth, and
eyes like rats. Their tails are very
short. There are but few of them
on the islands. A peculiarity of
th; animals is the strong affection
which exists between them. If the
male is caught the female becomes
a willing prisoner, and vice versa.
COMFORTABLE LOOKIVJ CANNON HALL.
Iii one side of St. Paul's Episcopal
Church, Norfolk, Va., is lodged a
cannon ball fired tln-re by the Brit
ish in the bombardment of 177G.
The church is in the form of across,
and its bricks, like those of the old
one at Hampton, are alternately red
and plazed. They probably came
from England, and they show good,
honest workmanship. Over one
hundred years they have stood here,
and not one of them has crumoled.
Even the cannon ball, which is near
ly a foot in diameter, and is half im
bedded in the front, has not broken
those bricks immediately surround
ing it and it looks just as comforta
ble as though it had been built in
the wall by the hands of the original
masons.
11ACTEK1A ON COIN.
Dr. Ileinsch. a distinguished Ger
man chemist has found the bacte
ria ol different diseases slicking to
silver coin long after being exposed
to the disease. An extended series
of observations showed that this is
the case with the small coins of all
LIJlO IB
nations, the thin incrustation of or
ganic matter deposited upon their
surfaces in the course of long circu
lation rendering them very suitable
for tuis parasitical settlement Dr.
IleinsCh scraped off some of these
incrustations and, with a small scal
jiel, divided them into fragments
which were subsequently dissolved
in distilled water. The employment
of lenses of a very high p.iwer show

WARNED iS A DREAM.
An extraordinary story is told in
English court circles, and has been
retailed by the Spiritualists, as to
h reasons which induced the
(Wen at the last moment to alter
tLe arrangements for Irince Leo
puld'a funeral. It is said that a
short time before his death, dancing
with an intimate friend, a lady of
Danbh birth, of great personal beau
ty, and the wife of an Efiglish peer,
lie was rallied by her upon his un
wonted abstraction. His answer was
that his sister Alice had come to him
in the night, warned him of an ap
proaching calamity, and told him
not to trouble, for all would soon be
well. The royal Duke, like his
mother, the Queen, teems to have
arrLed supernatural visitations as
! real, and he told the lady he would
.rofV-r if nnvthinsr happened 10 nun
to have a military luueral. Her
i.rthin the recipient of these
confidence?, wrote a letter to a high
court official, telling him the story,
and he laid her communication be
fore her Majesty. At once the Queen
ordered her dead son's desires, ex
pressed in life, to be fulfilled.
Hence that change at the last mo
ment, which led to so much perplex
ity and inconvenience.

her presence.
She it is that sees that his clothes
are in repair and always ready for
use, orders his meals and iias them
prepared in attractive forms, keeps
bi6 children neat and clean, makes
or oversees the making of their ap
parel. Watches over him and them
lovingly, tenderly, and unwearingly
through all their ailments or sick
uess, entertains him with pleasant
converse, reads to him, adwrns and
beautifies his home, and what is her
return ? Food and raiment, too oft
en sparingly or grudgingly furnish
ed, yet she is happy if she but re
ceive a casual cares or an occasional
smile and kind words.
Few men seem to realize the con
stant drudgery and the incessant
vexations under which a wile untir
ingly and uncomplainingly performs
her daily household unties, not per
haps from a lack of kind feeling, but
from unpardonable want of sympa
thy and consideration. Some men
never dream ofthehouriy irritations
and annoyances to which their wives
are subjected ; they are so engrossed
in the mad struggle for wealth, 60
absorbed in their own pleasure,
thev lose sight of such minor mat
ters as home affairs that claim all of
a woman's attention, seeming to
think that a wife should be happy
aud contented if ber purse be kept
moderately well supplied. How lit
tie such men know cf true woman
hood or of their duties or obliga
tions to their wives! Yet they would
feel outraged if classed with selfish,
unkind oi inconsiderate husbands.
A man who cannot appreciate,
and in som meature reciprocate his
wife's loving sacrifices and unselfish
devotion, is, in my opinion no man.
He should be more loving, more
scrupulously polite to his wile, more
considerate of her, as such, than
when she was only his sweetheart,
for a sweetheart is still her own mis
tress and holds the right to refuse
his attentions, whilst a wife is, in
this regard, wholly in his power,
and I rue manhood will recognize
that fact and act accordingly.
If a woman makes a request of
her husband and he cheerfully re
plies: "Certainly, my dear, with

lie inanurr pieneiraie ner uean anu
are treasured there, but if he harsh
ly answered : "I suppose I must, but
you are forever wai ting something,"
her heart is grieved ani humiliated,
shrinks within itself, bearing an ug
glv wound that time will scarcely
heal.
True politeness, ever thoughtful
of others, never willingly wounds,
and no one has so high a claim up
on a man's politeness as his wife.
She may have, ind doubtless has,
faults, but they are of the head and
not of the heart, and when her love,
devotion and self-sacrifice are placed
in the scales how largely they out
weich these little faults !
Kind words and loving attentions
rrav seem small things, but they
sink into a woman's heart and rivet
her allections. Love is woman s
life; she grows radia.it and beauti
ful upon it, but deprived of it she
j withers and dies. Her love once
given is for always, unless it be
.crushed by coarseness and brutality,
and there are burtes who call them
'selves ruen.

If people could see the human

the vital spark ceases to exist, they
would not want to be buried ; they
would be in favor of cremation.
Burying the human body I think is
a horrible thing. If more was known
about the human frame wnile un
dergoing decomposition people
would turn with horror from the
custom of burying their dead. It
sometimes takes a human body ot),
GO, SO years yes, longer than that
decay. Think of it! The remains
of a friend lying under six feet of
that lenjrth of
j . -. . . . ,
;m n;nT thrmii'h slow stages of
decay, and other bodies all this time
being buried around these remains.
Think i f thousands of such bodies
being crowded into a few acres of
ground, and then reflect that these
,-,.oc nr mnnv of them, in time fill
with water, and that water perco
lates through the ground and mixed
with the springs, and wells, and riv
ers from which we drink. Why, ii
people knew what physicians know,
what they have learned in the dis
secting room, they would look upon
burning the human body as a beau
tiful act in comparison with bury
ing it. There is something eminent
ly repulsive to mc about the idea ol
laying a few fett underground for a
century, or perhaps two centuries
going through the process of decom
position. When I die I want my body to
be burned.

"There is no reason for keeping up
the burial custom, but there are
many against it, some ol the most
practical of which are too recenuy
developed to need mention.
There is nothing repulsive in iue
idea of cremrlion. l'eople s preju

If thev could be awakened to a sense
of the horror of crowding thousands
of bodies under the ground to pol
lute in many inrtances the air we
breathe and the water we drink,
their prejudices would be overcome,
and cremation would be taken lor
what it truly is, a beautiful method
of disposing of the body."

have been established.
Sculptured marble and storied urn

of grateful hearts ; not all our heroes
may have theirhistury chiseled upon
marble, but it is possible to haye
the deeds of every one who suffered
for liberty's sake, remember and re

surely effected, than by an earnest
participation in the solemn exercis
es of the 30th of May. Comrades of
Pennsylvania, it is our duty to be
in the front rank in this noble work.
We go not only as mourners but as
instructors ; standing beneath the
old flag, we point to the heroic deeds
of tho-e whose services and whose
sacrifices we commemorate.
That this work cf love may be ful

public school, religious and civic
society and military organization in

The leaders of religious opinion

supposed that because men with ex

ganizations can dispense with the
normal quantity of sleep it would be
safe for everyb&dy to follow their
example. The sleep of the heart,
which we have seen to amount to
eight hours out of the twenty-four,
is a fair indication of the quantity
of sleep which on an average ought
to be allowed to the brain. As Sir

Drifting.
We have seen a piece of wxd drift
ing down the current of a winding
stream. Something it saUed free
from all entanglement ana made a
fair and steady show. At others it
would be caught by some projection
of the banks and held in the lazy
waters. Anon, a tumultuous wave
would drive it out to the farther
shore, and here swept round in the
eddying whirls of the rapids, it weuld
at last shoot down the dam breast
and be swallowed up in the foaming
vortex below.
We have seen some lives not un
like the driftwood, and of them it
may be truly said "they are drifting."
Sometime borne on the bosom of
tweet communion, at others full of
genuine intent to serve the Master;
then caught by some entanglement
of the world, now lifted up by the
noisy wave of passion, swept into the
rapids and often whirled over gid
dy precipies to yawning depths.
Most ol the sad mistakes in Chris-
tian experience come from this hab- j
..f ,!-! ;,,rr Thiit Atm't intern! to I
do wrong, no but they don't have a
strong intention, to do right, and
here is the great trouble. It we are i
going on as though all the responsi-!
bility belonged to others and noi 10 ,
ourselves, we cannot expect to steer
lear ot failure, borne ol the bitter
st hcartpancs come to us because
we luive drifted into sin, not inten
tionally, but none the less with eyes
wide open. We made no effort to
avoid the evil either in word or
deed. It is possible to live right
eously, but we must get out of the
fashion of taking it for granted. It
the mind is found going upon evil
thoughts, arrest it at once. Other
wise you will awake too late to find
yourself swallowed up in a course
from which there is no retreat.
Beware of drifting! drifting into
idle thoughts, drifting into idle
words into foolish expressions, into
wrong associations, into a low plane
of self content, and into obscure vis
ion of Chrislion obligations. Iiev.
