The houses are of rough mad wslto,

kinds, one a large active IGlow who
runs and files with equal facility and
rapidity. He ia omnivorous and om-
uipreaent, and not a trusk, box or
basket escapes bis invasions. He is
found of every size, from that of a
small pin-head to two inches, or more
in length, and fpr every one killed p
dozen seem to start into its place. Va
rious species of cocl^roacbea are preyed
upon by bugeepiders which live in the
walls or in the thatch of palm. From
tip to Up they are often four inches in
cihameter and at night come out of
th sir holes In search of food. They
are harmless, If not agreeable compa

ters, 1 arge enough and strong enough
to cap. ure small birds. They make
their dt»mlcHe In the palm roof and
•seldom t.'eecend to the lower regions.
They too i*! -0 harmless, but the hairs
sting very severely, and they are not
pleasant co tenants. To these may be
added an h vflnlte variety of smaller
species. Nex t we have a small scor
pion, about an Inch long, browp, with
a coal of fire 1 n his tall, the sting of
which Is very painful. What possi

you admit a hereafter, If everything In

u bpuse, tf you regard this life as
completed, If the whole career began
and ended here, then I do not wonder
that there are Unbelief and infidelity,
but the Psalmist says that he could
not bear it until be went Into the sano-
tuary and saw tbs end. Then hie
heart rose up In favor Of right living ;
then his mind was at rest and ours
may be at rest also.
Bear yotir burdens, catty your
crosses trlumphatly ; do not live for
the visible worid, but for the invisible,
which is greater; be hopeful,laugh
rather than cry. Remember that as the
servaats of the King all power to given
you in Heaven and on the earth ; bear
It well, patiently, honorably, In sick
ness or fn health, In prosperity ot In
adversity; remember your Master ;
never forget how much he loved you ;
cling to him, he never will forsake you;
forget father, forget mother, forget
friends, forget country, forget even
your»elf, but don’t foget him who In
dying said : * Do this in remembrance
of me.’ ”

The Work of the Horase.
[Ncir York World.]
As the froth of wild words beaten
up by partisan journalists about the
attitude and Intentions of the Demo
cratic majority In the House blows
away or settles down, sensible people
begin toseo that the Demecratto lead
ers hare never wavered for s moment
from tbe purpose set forth 00 clearly
and so dispassionately long before the
veto of President Hayes was sent In.
frothing could be more striking than
tbe contrast between the cool and pre
cise propositions of the majority In
Goagre^ft and tbe chaotlo medley of
Mstertlooa and declamation* which
President Hayes Has afraid to expose
to the criticism of hla own Cabinet be
fore he baptized, It a veto and sent it
to the other end ef the avenue. _
The House understands that It to
dealing with a grave constitutional
question In which precision of lan
guage to os Important as precision of
ceedlng therefore la the way best cal
culated to aenure a thorough consider-;
at ion of the terms whioh shall be ueed
in giving shape to its purpose*. Tbe
legislation put upon the statute book
from I860 to 1868 respecting tbe rights
of individuals, of the several Btsten,
and of the nation, has In the Revised
Statutes become so tntterwoveh with
previous legtolatlofl that the work of
picking out all the bad laws must nec
essarily be slow and tedious, but Con
gress ws hope will have the patience
tq go on steadily aod with oomposura
until It has been accomplished.
Intimations are thrown out here and
there In the news from Waeh'ngton of
an attempt to fashion our legislation
about the army on election days upon
the Engltoh rules that, on days of vot
ing for the members of the House of
Comraone, all Federal troops ebull be
marched by their oflloere out of their
quarters la any town where each vot
ing may take place into some adjoin-
Ing town where an election is not ap
pointed to bJ held, and that troops
shall not be stationed within a certain
speoifled number of miles of any voting
place, It will be difficult to do this
because voting In this country goes on
In every town on the same day. And
really there is no need of teuch rules In
this country. Nobody objects to the
presence of soldiers In an American
town If they are not present In military
array and not present under orders to
Interfere with or to stand guard over
the election or the polling places.
As In the time of William III. in
England so in this country now the ef
fort to be made and the work to be
done to to prevent the army from be
ing used to Influence or Intimidate
electors. Tbe policy of that sovereign
was modelled by counsellors who were
determined that the English nation
should have a free Parliament, elected
by free citizens at free polls, and whol
ly uninfluenced and unawed by the
eoldlery. That to precisely the thing
which the Democratic party to determ-
ed to secure to-day for the American
nation, and with patience, judgment
and good temper the Democratic par
ty will secure it. If the vital and eera-
Inai principle of our confederated sys
tem of Government is kept constantly
In mind tbe work will be easy. This
Is that each State must preserve peace
and good order within its own Juris
diction. There must be no 6bstacks
to tbe enforcement of Federal laws fn
any State, but'every State must see to
It for Itself that there are no such ob
stacles to the enforcement of Federal
tows within lU.qjin borders. There fa
no such thing as a Federal peace dis
tinct and different from the peaoo of
the States, There can, therefore, be
no need of a Federal police distinct
and different from tbe police of the
States. _
