A large number of persons have called 5o o6 it From the sica of tho wood and its slow growth, it is thought the roptile must have become imprisoned & hun- dred yoars ago, The most most curious part of the affair is that the snake is not hard and petrified, but, on the contrary, is soft and flex- ble.

Somo silly young people in Carlisle, Penn., are amusing themselves by indulging in mock marriagos. ~Their parents should show them what a_serious thing real matrimony is by giving them a sound spanking. The difference hetween the Quaker form of marriage and the Episcopal form is, that in tha former the bride does not promise to cbey, but does oboy, whilo in the .atter the bride does promise to obey, but does not obey.— Drake's Travelor's Magazine, T'he oldest son of the famous singer Jenny Lind, now Madame Otto Goldschmidt, was lately married to an English Iady,at the houso of her tather, Colonal Daniell. ~'Some of the foatures of the wedding, which was in church, attracted & good deal of attention. The bride’s train was borne by & pago in black velvet, and the four bridesmaids wero attired in different costumes of lilac, yellow and white cashmere and muslin, The bride’s traveling dross was w steol gray and salmon colored cashmere. Dr. Jasper Benson, who is eighty years old, was recently married at Boykin,S. C., to Miss Constance Bell, a school girl of twelve, They had_only known each other for two weoks. Dr. Benson was sick at Mr. Bell's houso and Constance nursed him, and as soon as ho got well th two went off together and got mar- ried. The doctor being rich, the marri was' not opposed by her parents. The ill- mated couple sre spending their honeymoon in Flonda, where he owns ' two orange planta- tions. The doctor thinks he will live twenty years longer, Tt is announced that Mr. Joel C. Harris, whoso quaint skotchs over the non_de_plume of Uncle Remus have proved a valuable fea- ture of the Atlanta Constitution, is about to be married to Miss Dora Watterson, the youngest daughter of Col. Fzra K. Watter- son, the richest cotton planter in Georeia. Miss Dollie has gone to New York with her mother to select her bridal tronssenu, which will bo exceadingly elaborate, The young lady ia » petite blonde, very pretty and very ac- complished. Her father is » cousin to the Hon, Henry Watterson, the eminent Ken- tucky journalist, and was colonel of the 6th Georgia cavalry at the battle of Vicksburg TLanding, whero he lost both his logs.

A druggist, dependent largely for his sup- port on tho patronage of Yale students, advertises s follows: ‘‘Arnioa, sticking. plaster. splints, bandages and other base-ball oods.” A class of little kindergarten children in & poor disurlct of Boston, who, although in very destitute ciccumstances, have become thor- oughly imbued with the spirit of Froobels sys- tem, wishing to help in the effort to extend it to the infant blind, have raised among them- selves, by contributing the fow pennies in their possession, the sum of forty-ono conts, which they have sout to the managor of the scheme. Doctor Gielle, of Paris, has found that twon- ty to twenty-five per cent of children hear only within @ limited range, A practical re- sult of this discovery is that children are now placed at such a distance from the teachers’ desk as will correspond with their strongth of hearing. The matter does not appear to have been thought of before, but its obvious impor- tance is now likely to attract attention from our teachers. The annual report of the superintendent of public instruction, in New York, shows that there were in that state last year 11,914 school houses worth $31,011,211, The humber of school children in_attendance was 1,041,080 a number greater than the total population of any one of uineteen states in tho Union. There were 31,570 teachers, 24,847 of them being Women; the averago anuual salary of tho teachers was $391, the total expense of maintaining the common schools was $11,- 838,004, The Springfield Mass., Union discusses the subjact of moral teaching in public schools and declares that » misconception of the principlos of moral growth underlies the demand for text- took lossons in othics sandwiched in some- whero botween tho arithmeti: and the eram- mar, ““What the boys and girls supromel: need as they approsch tho vears of respousi- Ble activity,” aava Tho Unfot, *is not ah eas fumiliaricy With a set of moral rules—though that is good as far as it goes—but & quicken- ing of the moral feelings.

In Junior years seven-fifteenths of the student’s work will be given tothe two required cour- ses for that year, consisting (1) of astronomy, logic, and psychology, and (2) of physics and geology. 1u senior years mental and moral philosophy are the only studies absolutely re- Bulred In diatinotion *from. optionals; ‘The work of that year Is intended to supplement the courses of tho earlier years, and to be adapted to the particular calling which the Senior intends to adopt in life, Political economy apears in the final year as a Senior optional, | Baglish literature coraee i &6 an optional study of Junior year, and pursued until graduation. “‘For admission to the College the qualifica- tont of applicants are to he slightly increased.
