To us the honor of inventing or adopting that very disagreeable mode of punishment belongs. Améng the laws for the preservation of order when King Richard sailed on his crusade was one that any soldier convicted of theft should have his head shaved, be stripped of his clothes, have melted covered with feathers and so set ashore at the first land that was touched.— Storms of Old England. In the year 944 in London alone 1,500 houses were blown down; in October, 1091, a great number of churches and 500 houses were destroyed; in 1235 it thundered for fifteen days consecutive ly. The dreadful night during which Cromwell’s spirit passed has forined a theme for poet and partisan. And the great storm that “o’er pale Britunnia passed” in November,1703,*the most terrible in British annals, also has its enduring record in poetry. It did damage in London to the amount of £2,000,000; over 8,000 people were drowned in floods in various parts of the country; twelve men-of-war, with over 1,800 men on board, went down in sight of land, and the Eddystone lighthouse, along with Winstanley, its inventor, was swept away. > Blind Swimmer’s Straight Steering. It is a standing puzzle that all blind swimmers are able to hold an almost perfectly straight course for very con Siderable distances, though no more guidance is given to them than some species of call or whistle coming from the winning goal. A blind man, in fact, desiring to go in a straigh’ line possesses, the, curious power of being able to do so almost exactly. A provincial mayor instituted a ‘series of contests in an open lake between blind men and ordinary ones of about equal skill and strength, and the result was marvelous so far as the straight steering of the blind was concerned.—London Chronicle. Moths and Butterflies. Butterflies are active in the day and fold their wings together when they settle. Their antenne end in clubs. The fore and hind wings never hook together. The chrysalis is angular and not inclosed in a cocoon or silken case. Moths, on the other hand, are usually active in the dusk or at night and do not fold their wings together on settling. The feelers are very various in shape, but rarely clubbed. The fore and hind wings are generally fastened together during flight by a “hook and eye” arrangement. The chrysalis is not angular and is inclosed in some sort of case or cocoon. ; Jewels on an Idol, ' The jewels of an Indian idol must be worth stealing if many of those remarkably hideous images possess such valuable head ofnaments as one made for the idol Parthasathy, in the Triplicane temple at Madras.
