I [l)r. .lay in the South Australian Register.] If you can imagine a pine-apple eight feet high anti thick in proportion, resting j upon its has* and denuded of leaves, you will have ;; good idea of the trunk of the tree which, however, was not the color of ! an anana, but was a dark, dingy brown, j aud apparently as hard as iron. From the apex of this fusticaUd cone (at least two feet in diameter) eiaht hugo leaves sheer | to the ground, like doors swinging back on their hinges. These leaves, which are joined at the top of the trees at regular intervals, were about eleven or twelve feet long, and shaped very much like the leaves of an American agave or century plant. They are two feet through in their thickest part, and three feet wide, taper ing to a sharp point that looked very much like a cow's horn, very convex on 1 the outer (but not under) surface, aud on i tbo under (now upper) surface slightly I concave. This concave surface was tbick- l ly set with j STRONG THORNY HOOKS | like those upon the head of a ter He. j These leaves, hanging thus limp and life less dead green in color, had in appear | nnce the massive strength of oak fibre. | The apex of tho conn was a round con : cave figure, like a smaller plate set within a larger one. This was not a flower but a receptacle, and there exudes into it a clear, treacly liquid honey, sweet and possess ed of violent intoxicating aud soporific properties. From underneath the rim iso to speak) of the undermost plate a series of long, hairy, green tendrils stretched out in every direction towards tho hori zon. These were seven or eight leet long, ami .f*pored from four inches to half an inch in diameter, yet- they stretch ed out stiffly as iron rods. Above these (from between tho upper and under cup) six white, almost transparent, pnlpi retired themselves toward the sky, twirling and twisting with Mir.VEIiI.OU3 INCESSANT MOTION, yet constantly reaching upward. Thin ns reeds and frail as quills, apparently, they were yet five or six feet tall, and were so constantly and vigorously in motion, with mieh a subtle, sinuous, silent throbbing against tho air. with their suggestions of serpents flayed, yet dancing on their tails. My observations on this occasion were suddenly interrupted by tbo natives who bad been shrieking' around tha tree with their shrill voices, and chanting what Hendrick told me were propitiatory hymns to the gn at tree devil. With uti l wilder shrieks and chants they now sur rounded one of the women, and urged her with the points ol" their javelins, until slowly, and with despairing face, she climbed up the stalkof the tree, and stood on the smmit of tho cone, tho palpi swirl ing all about her. “Tsik! Tsik! (Drink! drink!) cried tho men. Stooping, she drank of the viscid fluid iu the cup, rising instantly again, with WILD FRENZY IN U R FACE, and convulsive cord* in her limbs. But idle did not jump down, as she seemed to intend to do. Oh, no! tin? atrocious can nibal tree, that had boen so inert and dead, came to sudden savage life. Tho delicate palpi, with the fury of starved serpents, quivered a moment over her head, then as if instiuetevitli donioniac in telligence, fastened upon her in sudden coil* round and round her neck and urins, and while her awful screams and yet more awful laughter lose wildly to be instantly strangled down again into a gurgling moan, the tendril* one after another, like great green serpents, with brutal energy and in fernal rapidity, rose, protracted them selves, and wrapped her about iu fold af ter fold, ever tightening with cruel swift ness and savage tenacity of ANACONDAS FASTENING I CON THEIR THEY It was the barbarity <?5 the Laocoon without its beauty -this strange, horrible murder. And now the great leaves rose slowly and stiffly, like the arms of a dur tick, erected themselves in the air, ap proached one another, and closed about the dead and hampered victim with the silent force of a hydraulic press and the ruthless purpose of a thumb scr w. A moment more, and while I could see the basis of these great levers pressing more tightly towards each othor from their in terstices there trickled down the stalk of the tree gro, t streams nf viscid honey like fluid, mingled horribly with the blood and oozing ciseera of the victim. At sight of this tho savage hordes around me, jelling madly, bounded forward, crowded to th# tree, clasped it, and with cups, leaves. Lands and tongues, each one obtained enough of the liquid to send him mad and frantic. Tho latest invention in the life boat line is a boat with a broad lino of cork at the load line, so constructed that it sails eqnaliy well cither side up. It will not upset easily, but if it doesupS6t, the bottom and keel fall right down through the centre, and there it is, just as it was before, a perfect boat, only whst was the bottom has become the top, A*: ot rye trie near Waldo measures etph* f •-* ti- in? Lea in etrcuißfsrer)-. THE DOG WAS NOT HAPPY, A Scientific Fallacy Exposed. Tho St. Louis Republican says: “It was reserved for a boy out orr Olive street to produce anew act to tho old and oft repeated drama of ‘A Dog with Something Tied to his Tail.' It wasn't atiy old oys ter can or split stick affair, hut something entirely new. The dog, which was a little black-nnd-tau terrier, with an artistic air, was following a lady, and tho boy was idling along the street with a red toy bal loon which ho was holding by a string. It was a very large balloon, as largo ns those toy hullo jus ever grow. The lady passed the boy and turned tho corner. The dog came trotting along and was about to pass the boy also, when th* urchin, im pelled by a spirit of evil, grabbed bitn. Then, slill further instigated by the devil aud curiosity, the boy tied the end of the string in his hand firmly nbo it the dog's tail, about two inches from the end, and lei go. The auimal started oil'with a yelp to rc join its mistress, but it didn't regain her all at once. The balloon straightened out the tail in an instaut, so that it pointed toward the zenith with a kind of excelsior expression, and lho dog's motions carried out the idea perfectly. The wind freshen, ed up a little, and tho dog’s hind feet wore lifted off the ground, and then began aj senes of remarkable but ineffective move ments on the part of the animal. It didn't seem to boa trained dog, but it turned somersaults and stood on its fore feet and sung littlo snatches of song us never any circus dog in the world did. It would make the most tremeudouß leaps and laud exactly in the same spot it jumped from, and then it would settle down to work with iU fore legs, and p'ny them at the j rate of 2,000,000 revolutions a minute and - over the ground in a manner that I couldn't have been supposed, under tho | circumstances, were peculiar, though, and j the dog didn’t during the entire play, i get beyond the block. The red balloon soared with all the persistency of a Colum bian orator's hyperbole, and tho terrier’s | tail refused to break. Then tbo dog got desperate, and bounded, and struggled, and vaulted, while the big balloon in the air bobbed up and dowu like the oork on the line of a giant fishing for whales Aud all the while the animal sang. Family the string bioke, and the balloon shot up to- j ward tho clouds. The dog disappeared at the same time, though tho boy noticed something like ft blnek-and-tan streak reaching for seventeen blocks, which last ed for a moment only. The performance, as a whole, had been a s ircexs, but it left a bad impression on the boy's mind, lie concluded that his schoolmaster must be a fool, lie had been taught that ft body impelled by two forces opsritiog ut right angles to each other would take au intermediate course. Ho bad just seen that such a body didn't get along at all." lairgo Failures in England. There is a gloomy financial cloud ha ig ing over Great Britian. Several failures of extensive iron manufacturers; have oc curred there, which, together, amount to several millions pounds sterling. The London Times, in its article of the Ist of Juno, says that “they will probably pro duce result* similar to those which fol loweol ths collapse of Orereud, Gurney A Cos. 1 ' Commenting on this intelligence, and tiie probable effect of these failures of heavy English houses on financial inter ests in this country, tbo Cincinnati En quirer says: "We know whnt those results wsro. They created wide-spread busi ness ruin and individual distress. There are too intimate commercial relations be tween tho United State*and Great Britain for any financial disaster to overtake the one which does not Bpeedly lull upon the other. Nearly one-third of onr foreign trade is with Great Britain. There are owned large amounts of otir National bonds, State bonds, railroad securities und other pecuniary obligations Financial distress m England causes thorn to be sent at once to the United States, und put upon the market for sale iu such quanti ties as to break it down, and thus citato a ruinous panic on this side of tbc ocean. It would bo, indeed, a misfortune to have aueb a thing occur while wo huve u mis erably restricted currency, not near enough to do the business of the country, and when the prospects for the orops, in consequence of the severity of the winter, the lateness of spring and tho ravages of insects, are of an unfavorable character. In the look ahead we bavo one thing to congratulate ourselves upon, and that is that onr currency is greenbacks instead cfgold. If it were the latter there would be such a drain upon it as to cause all the banks to suspend specie payment*, aid thus produce wide spread suffering and disaster. They may now take our gold, but in so doing they do not tske the money of the people." The Rochester iMinn.)

Hugging ~t to m’ti' is whst sence | fcepl* '-•rile t A Father Arrested for Taking Away His Own Children. There war* rumors afloat yesterday that Mr. H. L. Schreiner, the well-known book-seller, who loft the city on Wednes day night, had been arrested in Baltimore on tho charge of kidnapping and abduct ing hi own children. Upon investiga ting the rumor the following information was obtained: Soveral days since Mr. Schreiner dis posed of Ins interest in the book-store o* which be has long been proprietor, to hi* brother, S. Sclieiner, but with the appar ent intention of remaining here, and con tinuing business. On Wednesday he an nounced his intention of going on a fish ing excursion, aud made the usual prep aration* for thett pnpose. He left the store about noon, and nothing more was seen of him, but it wan afterwards ascer tained that he left by the Central Rail road train that night lor Baltimose, tak ing with him km two young ohildren. who, since tho death of his wife, have been in the keeping of their grandfather, Mr. Geo. C. Gemenden. He was accom panied on the journey by a friend, who, us the sequel shows, assisted him mate rially. These children, ft; has been stated, were in the custody of their grandfather, and who, we are informed by Mr Schemer'* brother, exercised absolute control oven them, and had them guarded with zeal ous care. On Wednesday afternoon Mr, if. L. Schreiner saw bis children, unci nr* soquently, with the connivance of his friends, got them away from the house of their grand parents, conveyed then to the Central Depot, and left on th* train for Baltimore. Tho disappearance of the father and children created eonsider&Ws excitement among thoßo concerned, and on Thursday morning Mr. Geo. Gemen den, the younger, appeared ut the office of Magistrate Elsingor and had a warrant issued charging Mr. Schreiner with th* kiduapping aud abduction of his own children. Gen. And*r*on, Chief of i’o lico, was subsequently called upon, and attbe request of Mr. Gemenden telegraph ed the Chief of l’oiie* respectively of Richmond, Baltimore, Washington, Phil adelphia uud New Yolk, to urrest H. L. Schreiner on the charge of abduction. Yesterday morning a telegram was re ceived announcing Mr. Schreiner'* arrest in Baltimore by Marshal Gray, of that city. Mr. Gemenden claims under *etion 179;) of the Cod*, iu aocorJauce with which the affidavit was made and warrant win issued, that Schreiner had relinquish ed parental control of his children, aud ia warrying them off' surreptiouv'y, as it were,he wan guilty of kidnapping aud ab duction. On tho other hand, it is claim ed by Schemer's friends that he never rt linquishep control of th* children, a row' that his object iu taking thorn oft itfr th* manner stated w.n to. avoid trouble and delay. Up lo l.st srcotiais Sclneiacr u still in custody *f tbs police of Ualtimor* and it was understood would be breoghd back lo Savannah. We are informed tbwt ■ prominont lawyer iu tbo city stutes that there WiS no law in Georgia authorizing an arrest under the circumstances. The matter bids ftrir to prove quite interesting as well as novel, able luwyers being em ployed on either aide. Thus th* affair stands at present, but new development* may come to light before out next issue. Savannah News. Railway Etiquette. They have n ploasing way of rouiindiuj possengoru what the rule* of the road are in Now Jersey. Tin ea men recently took the train at Nan ark for New York. They hod foolishly got aboard without procur ing tieketa. Wheu tlie conductor cam* along they etated they hud no tieketa, and gave him tire reason for not procuring alien). He ut once stopped the train anti ordered them to get oft. Aa they war* willing to pay the fare, they refused his poite iuTitation. Calling to hi aid the breakeamen and bagg&go master, the con ductor wont for tho delinquent passenger* as if they wero tho James brothera caught tn the act of robbing the train. Cf course they resisted, and the conductor, in ord'r to u n!;e an impreaaion, seized a billet of wood and dealt one of them a blow that fractured hi* ahull. This had the desired effect, and tho i train went on — minus the three unfortue rdo travellers. The officer) of the law ere i now looking for this model conductor 1 and the surgeon* are doing their beat to patch up a skull, ro that ila owner can obey the rule* of u Jersey railroad in the future, and purchase a ticket before ho take* a seat in a car. On this same road, a few years ago, a poor fellow was put off the train ou u dark night, and in trying to find tiis way to a station bo tumbled into tho Hackensack river! He was drown - ed, of course, nobody was to blame, he bad no ticket. and according to tho rale* of the road l.e had no right to lire. Now that the grand jury are after these railroad brigand-, we hope to have the principle well established that a man’s life is of more Taiue than a fifteen cent ticket on any Jer sey rsilroad.- -Washington Chronicle, SWMHWeanMWMSe Men should keep their eyes wide open beforo marriage, sad half shut sftr NO. 10
