A Two-lleiiuYd Snake.
M. Sender give.-, in Du Xutitr, an ac
count of a thing two-headed snake,
found on the line of railroad from San
lose to Vera Cruz, and now on exhibi
tion in the museum of the Woodward
("arden in San rrauei-co. Is is a
gopher-snake (rclicojhis U'ilkii),:i specie.-
which lives on gophers, rats, mice,
and -mall birds. Thegopher-siiake is a
perfectly harmless reptile, like all the
other snakes of California except the
rattlesnake. The two-headed snake is
! inches in length; its age can not be
determined, but is not over two or three
months: the full-grown snake is seven to
eight feet in length. Its color is a dirty
yellowish white, with a double row of
ehe.stnut-brown. spots along the back:
these spots are nearly square and 7o in
number. On each sid'e is a row of small
er spots of the same color and shape.
On both of the necks up to the heads
are also several small spots. From the
point where the necks fork to the ex
tremities of the jaws is one inch and a
half. The heads and necks are perfect
ly separate and about one inch apart :
each head and neck is fully formed and
in every respect symmetrical. Each of
the heads has two large eves. The ani
mal can put. out each of tlie two forked
tongues separately or together. The
two jaws open into one throat. As each
neck is perfectly flexible, the snake can
turn each of its heads in any direction at
pleasure. It oftentimes "lavs its two
heads dose together-: often "it spreads
them as far apart as possible, or rots
one upon the other. It takes its food
through either mouth indifferently, and
both jaws seem to possess the same pow
er. Some years ago a Missouri farmer,
in plowing, found a rattlesnake which
in like manner had two fully formed
Ii3ads, and a merchant of San Francisco
avers that he observed a similar I turn
untune in a, Java snake. J'ojmhtr Sci

though not so pronounced as that in tlmhcr. is
till :i.i emphatic In conuecliou with the de
pression of tills Kraut industry ol Great Urit
ain. The exportation from the Tinted King
dom ha-declined from $ti77,r.H),0JOin 1?77
to $a.i7,108,W)0 in 1S7S. The export
ation of woolen manufacture ha- de
clined about $;;,UOO,00); of iron and steel,
wrought nml umvrought, over $8,M),IK):
coals, $ 3,fj00,00y, linen. Jute yarns, and
manufactures, almost $5,.7.0,000. At the
same time the report shows, what is espe
cially interesting to this country, that the
importations of manufactured cottons have
decreased more in appearance than reality.
During the five years beginning with 1S7I and
ending with 1S7S, the decreat-e has been $ 07, -8i'l,000,
or nearly one-third of the importa
tions of 1874, while in quantity the decrease
has been only one-eleventh. This is true of
the decrease in exported cottons. While
their value is less, the quantity exported was
greater in 1678 than in 1874.
The table of imports shows that the United
States lead all other countries in the value
of commodities sent to the United Kingdom.
Their exports thither have inerea-ed from
Sa.l,r7.",MW 1S72 to $:57S,,.!."I,IMM ill 1S77.
The country standing next in importance in
this respect is France, which in 1877 sent to
(ircat Uritain goods to the value of '''J1,
SM.UOO. While Franco has thus been in
creasing its export trade with Creat Uritain.
its imports from that Cotilitrv haw fallen otf
in the sum' years from $Ji2f"r.i.",W)0 to .f!M;,
Ui:i,W0. More than half of the increa-e of
our export trade ha-been due to the great
demand for our bread-tuffs and our wood
and timber. The increase in the value of
the latter, and of wheat, sugar, ami Iinli.ui
corn amounts to $.i7,.Kiri,i)0. The trade
between the two countrie-began to turn in
favor of the United States in ISC'i. Jn ISC!
the imports and exports to and from llu
Creat ilritaiu were almo-t equal. In the
two following wars the balance was again-t
us, but since then it lias been iiicrea-iug in
our favor until the above re.-ult has been
reached.
II. is a mi-takc to suppose that cotton from
this country i- le-s in demand in IJigiand
than it wa-seven years ago. Tin difference
between the amounts exported in 1872 and
1878 i- not material. Oilier commodities
haw grown to be relatively more important
article- of commerce, but not at the e.xpcn-e
of cotton. The following table will .-how the

The exportation of cotton in 1S77 was re
markably light, and does not pre-ent a fair
view of the amount of that product sent to
Kuglaud. In 1878 the exports amounted to
$I-.,:S..V4.0iX).
The articles cnumcrntr-d constitute the
most important articles of export from this
Country to the United Kingdom, but they do
not necessarily present the'um-t interesting
data for the study of the growth of our com
merce. The value ot petroleum exported

from nothing to $1,408,000.

Our Consul-Ccneral at Loudon attributes
this gloomy Mate of things for England to
the fact, that American manufactures have
improved by reason of 'our protective tariff.
Hut he gives the true reason for the com
mercial distress of the mother country when
he savs:
The great decline In manufacturing pros
perity Is undoubtedly nl?o attributable to the
fact 'that the Unitetl States have recovered
from thO effects of the War of the Kehellion,
which threw into ltritish hands, to a great ex
tent, the work which should have been done
at home. The people here, not perceiving
that this was a temporary circumstance, sup
posed they had got a start which could never
he made tip, built mills and invested largely
In the manufacturingintcrcst.belicvingthem
selves to to have secured, as well as obtained,
the monopoly of the world. When America
revived, and, under the protective system, ic
cowrcdfmm the effects of the War; when
Americans nsed their own great resources for
their own benefit, made their own wares in
stead of purcha-ing them, this great outlav
beeame in a great degree useless, and the ii:
nction began. Some of the present depression
will doubtless he only temporary, but it is
very generally acknowledged bv manufactur
ers them-clves. as well as by careful writers
and thinkers, that fon-ign competition has en
tirely changed the aspect of thesuhject and as
permanent! v affected the prospect of liriti-h
manufacturers.
In this paragraph he agrees substantially
with Prof. Itonamv Price in his article in a
recent number of the Xorlh American J!c
vinc. What Mr. Kvarts calls a seeming trade
contradiction" consists in the fact that while
wc have been selling the United Kingdom
good- in exee.-s of what we have bought, we
have at the same time been exporting gold
and silver coin and bullion in a much larger
amount than wc have imported it. The
same is true of our entire foreign trade.
The show ing of the report that is greatly to
our discredit is in respect to our tonnage.
The freight earnings of most of the a.-t
carrying trade between America and England
goes into Kngli-h pockets. .Notwithstand
ing that we .-ell Kuglaud more than any oth
er country, the tonnage of the United "state
stands eighth in "the list of coun

Eleclricily in .Morning ("lories.
La-t evening a gentleman of thi- city
accidentally made a mo-t -ingular di
eowry rc-pect ing the electrical inllueiice
of the ordinary morning-glory vine-.
Seated near the lattice work oxer which
the vine wa- trained, his attention wa
attracted to a single little branch tipped
wi,h a growing line extending -traight
o it from the re-t, and speeulaicd within
himself whether the tjny hail's with
which the stem w.i- clothed were not
placed there for the purpo-c of conduct
ing the electric illtid of the atmosphere
to the plant. In order to continue hi-inve-tigalion,
he approached his linger
within a half an inch of it, and was
amazed to ob-erve a -light almost im
perceptible, yet uiiiuiMakable--motion
of the stem. As he pushed his finger a
little nearer, the stem trembled very visi
bly, and was -eemingly attracted and
repelled from him. The hairs which he
noticed before did not move, but re
mained erect. There wa.- no wind at
the time, and the motion was purely an
induced one. After thi- intere-ting ex
periment he placed the end of his linger
within a .-hort di-tancc of the growing
bud. and slowly moved it in a circular
direction. The -tern followed the mo
tion until it was bent in the shape of a
letter C, ami, when the linger was with
drawn, instantly regained it former
straight position. This last experiment
was witnessed by several per-on-, all of
whom tried it. with varying nieces.-.

which Chine-e girls paint their faces in

thi- delectable co-metic over their
cheek- and forehead till they are xs
-hiny a- the moon, and as -tieky :ts
though they had washed themselves in
treacle. The surface thus prepared,
they proceed to lay on the white pow
