The appalling features of East Indian • dstime are disclosed in the recent reports ' Of the Uaicutta Uruoiual Court, from " #hich the Pail Mail Gkuette him select- §d seyeral cases: In Cuttack a ^cman draws a child {Bide, takes the silver bracelets from her Irms, and flings the little victim into a tank, on the butfaue of which the body * Is found floating a few days afterward. , , lii Behar a man strangles a boy nine %ears old for the sake of his silver brace­ lets and gold earrings, and throws the corpse into a sugar plantation. At Jfoorshed abadChamoo robsa child aged five, and drops her into a deep and rapid part of the river. At Benares a fellow •litices a boy twelve years old into his house, and there cuts his throat in order ' Id get possession of his silver bracelets, •liile a friend looks on and mildly ex­ postulates, but neither seriously inter­ feres nor gives information to the police. Another takes a neighbor's eon into the fields, under pretense of helping him to fly his kite, there strangles him with his waist cloth, and strips him of the trashy trinkets with which he was adorned. * _ Yet. another conducts a boy aged nine to witness a religious procession, but, pass­ ing neai'a ditch, suddenly throws him / down, partially strangles him, tears the f silver ornaments from his arms and feet, •nd ilings him into the ditch, which is fortunately dry, and where he is found before life is quite extinct. By the promise of a melon Leola in­ veigles Bebee Dee, seven years of age. from his father's house, brains him with a hoe, and buries his turban and trinkets in a field> leaving the body where it had fallen, and where it was found by the anxious father. This mur­ derer, like the others, on being charged with the crime, at once confessed his guilt, and pleaded as an extenuating oir- oumstanoe that he was prompted by an evil spirit. A woman holds a little girl under water until she is drowned, the temptation be­ ing a silver dollar of the weight of two rupees. Two women one evening ask a child, eight years old, to come to them on the inorrow for some fruit, and when she eagerly arrives, the one holds her while the other passes a rope round her neck and pulls it till the breath has fled. The body was speedily found in the midst of some tall grass near the house, and the spoils consisted of a silver collar weighing four rupees. A woman of Tipperah was engaged in cooking her food, when, according to her own account, a child not above six gears old came toddling up to her. uddenly a thick darkness Enveloped her, and a voice sounded in her ears, bidding her strangle her little visitor. ^Thereupon she seized ilie child by the throat, and the darkness passed away. So she dug a hole in the floor of her house and laid the body therein, after taking off the few valueless ornaments. A girl, aged nine, herself recently be­ trothed, drowns her playfellow in a shallow watercourse ; while a boy, four­ teen years old, leads in play a youthful companion to the edge of a tank, smashes his skull with a flint, possesses himself of the scanty ornaments, and then lays the crime "at the door of a neighbor. The Capture of Sew Orleans. Hon. Gideon Welles, Secretary of the Navy under President Lincoln, pub­ lishes an article in the Hartford Times in defense of Admiral Farragut as the capturer of New Orleans. This article is in reply to a statement in the recent decision of the United States Supreme Court, delivered by Justice Swayne, in the case of the City of New Orleans, ap­ pellant, vs. the New York Mail Steam­ ship Company, in which the expression occurred: "On the 1st of May, 1862, the army of the United States captured the city of New Orleans." Mr. Welles proves that t% city was captured by , Farragut on the 25th of April,' and held by him until the arrival of the troops. He also quotes from the records of the War Department to show that repeated injustice has been done to the Admiral. A chronological record published by the department, and purporting to give a record of all events of the war, does not contain Farragut's name, and gives the credit for the capture of the forces on the Mississippi, below New Orleans, to Admiral Porter, who was a subordinate under Farragut. The article concludes: "I liave felt it a duty to the navy, to the truth of history, and to the most dis- jgtinguiahed hero of the war, to correct the persistent misstatements which liave been and still are made in regard to the capture of New Orleans, and to some of the attending circumstances and events of that period. The document, which is sent out by the War Department as a •chronological table of battles, skir­ mishes, etc., which took, place during the rebellion,' is not truthful and reli­ able, insomuch as it suppresses and fails to make mention of some of the most important and conspicuous battles which took place, and wholly omits the name ' of tlie most distinguished hero of the war." . Wasted Fly-Power. It was Hamlet who expressed a pref­ erence for the "fly to ills we know not of," or words to that effect, and Hamlet either was or pretended to be insane. \ The idea that there is any more annoy­ ing torment possible than the frequent fly affords, is an unsound notion, a sign of a very thick skin or of a very thick head. But setting aside for the time the direct discomfort that the creature works for man, it is interesting, and in­ structive, too, to see the seriously inju­ rious effect that its indirect influence seems to have upon the world's industry. There are, in round numbers, 33,000,- 000 cows, oxen, horses, and the like, in this country, which for about ten hours a day during fly time keep their tails in almost constant motion. It is no exag­ geration to estimate that they swing uiem at {least ten times a minute, with a force equal at each swing to raising one pound a foot. That is, their tail force is ten pounds a minute. One horse power is 33,000 feet pounds in a minute, so 3,300 cattle would exert with their tails one horse power, and all these creatures in the country would put forth upon the fly the aggregate force of 10,000 horse power. Now the entire force of all the steam engines and water , wheels in the country used in the manu­ facture of steam engines and boilers is less than* 12,000 horse power. That is, , ^ 4he force wasted byopr domestic animals i in waving their tells to keep the fly away is almost sufficient, if rightly applied, to move all the motive machinery in the iaad^ Umrifard Voumnt, ^ He-ctifttinff witfe Bsrglaw. A week ago last night the house of Mr. H. R. Groff, at No. 42 Wood street, was entered bv a burglar or burglars, and some $60G~wotrh of jewelry stolen. Each piece was marked, and as bills de­ scriptive of each were immediately got out it became a matter of difficulty for burglars to dispose of the property. 'The next step was to open a negotiation with Mr. Groff to see if he would not be willing to lose a small sum for the re­ covery of a large one. A note was ac­ cordingly dropped to Mr. Groff, the burglar saying he was " ready to make a negotiation." If Mr. Groff would send him 3300, he said, and afjpree to ask no questions or attempt to discover the thief, every piece of jewelry would be returned. An answer was requested through an advertisement in the paper. Mr. Groff concluded to open negotia­ tions, but did not feel disposed to stand the $300. He accordingly published a personal notice to the effect that the offer was too high. The same day an­ other note c«me. The burglar was will­ ing this time to take $200, and wanted an answer immediately. It came, and w&s to the effect that the bid was yet too high. The third epistle was immedi­ ately received, and the price of redemp­ tion marked down to $130. Mr. Groff thought that he could stand the toll, and accordingly published a notice to that effect. The next step was to settle means by which the transfer could be made. IVtr. Groff received a note telling him to have the cash at home with him at night, and that some of these evenings lie would have a chance to dispose of it. Thurs­ day night last Mr. Groff heard a tap at his window, and on throwing up the sash, saw a man below in the darkness who asked him if he was "ready with the stamps." " The money is here," said Mr. Groff; " oome in and you shall have it." " I guess I wont come in," said the man, " or you might recognize me. The jewelry is here all right, and I will give it up when you hand out the money." Mr. Groff declined to accede to the cheeky request, and told the man if lie woidd hand in the goods he should have his money. The man at first declined to do so, and insisted that the cosh should be passed out first. " Why can't you trust me as well as for me to trust you ?" asked the burglar. " Because I claim to be on honest man, and you are a thief." said Mr. Groff. The answer seemed to throw a new light into the mind of the man oroide, and he finally decided to pass in the gwods, which he proceeded to do. Mr. Groff took them in, looked them over and found all there, and then passed the roll of bills to the brassy thief.' The latter thereupon departed as silently as he came. Mr. Groff thinks there were two or three other men in the yard, al­ though he saw only one.--Cleveland leader. Learn a Trade. I never look at my old steel compos­ ing rule that I do not bless myself that, while my strength lasts, I am not at tne mercy of the world. If my pen is not wanted, I can go back to the type-case and be sure to find work; for I learned' the printer's trade thoroughly--news- paper-work, job-work, book-work, and press-work. I am glad I have a good trade. It is a rock upon which the pos- sesssor can stand firmly. There is health and vigor for both body and mind in an honest trade. It is the strongest and surest part of the self-made man. Go from the academy to the printing office, or the artisan's bench, or, if you please, to the farm--for, to be sure, true farm­ ing is a trade, and a grand one at that. Lay thus a sure foundation* and after that branch off into whatever profession ^ou please. You liave heard, perhaps, of the clerk who had faithfully served Stephen Gir- ard from boyhood to manhood. On the twenty-first anniversary of his birthday, he went to his master and told him his time was up and he certainly expected important promotion in the merchant's service. But Stephen Girard said to him: " Very well, now go and learn a trade." " What trade, sir ?" " Good barrels and butts must be in demand while you live. Go and learn the cooper's trade and when you have made a perfect barrel bring it to me." The young man went away and learned the trade, and in time brought to his old master a splendid barrel of his own make. Girard examined it, and' gave the maker two thousand dollars for it, and then said to him : "Now, sir, I want you in my count­ ing room; but henceforth you will not be dependent upon the whim of Stephen Girard. Let what will come, you have a good trade always in reserve. The young man saw the wisdom and understood. Years ago, when the middle-aged men of to-day were boys, Horace Greeley wrote : " It is a great source of consolation to us tliat when the public shall be tired of us as an editor, we can make a satisfac­ tory livelihoodat setting type or farming; so that while our strength lasts, ten thousand blockheads, taking offense at some article they do not understand, could not drive us into the poorhouse." And so may a man become truly inde­ pendent. The Pay of Whisky Gangers* , The Commissioner of Internal Reve­ nue has adopted a new schedule for the payment of gangers by means of which it is estimated from $75,000 to $100,000 a year will be saved. Under the work­ ing of the old method of pitying for the quantity gauged per month at ten cents per gallon, compensation not to exceed six dollars per day at any time, it was usually the case that the six dollars were charged for (Jays in which no gauging whatever was done. The new schedule allows pay only fcr the days on which gauging is actually done, at the rate of ten cents per gallon, to an amount not in excess of six dollars per pay. Mrs. Mvra Ciaj»ioE Gaines' next law­ suit in Washington is her answer to Caleb Cushing's bill for services through her long litigation. Tiny Builders. Rock builders consist of /orms of vege­ table as well as animal "ufe. The vege-, table builders are fo^md in the ooze which covers the ir„&rine plants dvawu' Up from the boiwyaj of the sea. They consist of zigza^links of boxes, attached at their corner These vegetable forms, so minute to be inviaihl® to the nftked eye, hav<i the power of secreting the ele­ ments of flint or silica from the water in whicii they live. They are very curi­ ously marked, and there are many varie­ ties of them. The city of Berlin was built on an immense bed of the remains of these minute vegetable forms,and the unstable foundations of the houses is owing to tliis fact., They are so small that one of them is but the seventy-mill­ ionth part of a grain. They live in the water, and damp moss contains them. They increase by subdivision, one being capable of increasing to a million by this process, in twenty-four hours. Their method of building is simply by living and then dying and leaving their flinty skeletons to form the solid rock. They block up rivers, give the green tinge to the Arctic ocean, form a white stone which has beea found in masses five hundred miles long and eight hundred feet thick, and the clouds of dust which are blown from the desert are made up of them. The second class of rock builders are endowed with animal life. The pyramids and the sphinx were built of stone made by these animals, which are mere specks of jelly, some of which have the power of covering themselves with shell; yet they are able to walk without feet, to capture their prey with­ out hands, and all by means of the. gela­ tinous substance of which they are com­ posed. They throw out threads of living fiesh, which seize and digest their food --as though we could digest n beafsteak by taking it in our hands. The rook of the pyramids-is composed of their cases or shells, and is thus full of organized remains. The stone of which Paris is built is composed of these fossil shells. They form marble, and thus enter into the most beautiful forms of sculpture. These little builders do their work solidly, and it is still going on. They labor at the bottom of the deep sea, which, though it was once thought to be devoid of life, is now found to be a populous empire, thronged with active life and strange forms. They never rest, but perform their mission faithfully and well, thus setting an example which the larger ani­ mal, man, would do well to profit by.
