Pope" Gas he used to be known in the army
was the officer who took occasion to shamefully
assdil the character of President Buchanan,
at Cincinnati, in February, 1861, when he was
a Captain in the army, and, as personal
friend and toady Of Abraham LincoIn's, acted
as one of the suite of the latter in his progress
to Washington to be iuaugurated. In assail-

ordered for court martini, but Nr. Buchanan
magnanimously restored him to rank and duty,
and Lincoln afterwards promoted him, appar-
emily for having wantonly insulted President

A Police "Reminiscences,

A Paris correspondent writes: tsThe
recent death of Nuzillard, the senior
cashier of the Compton d. Escompte,
through whose hands more gold has
passed than would buy up an empire,
reminds me of the following story
NuzilIard had always enjoyed the repu-
tation of being the most clever, and at
the same time most prudent cashier.
However, in 1849 he managed to get
robbed of sum of $4,000 in Gao
notes. The director of the Compton,
although he had always had the great
est confidence in the often-tried probity
of his clerk, still thinking it strange
that he could have so large packet Of
notes AIKEN from him without his knowl-
edge, went to the Prefect of Police, NJ.
Cartier, and told him all about it. The
latter pronounced an. opion favorable to
the honesty of poor Nuzillafd. "Re-
MEMBER" said the director, sthat a
hundred bank notes make quite thick
packet and | cannot see how, with this
packet on his breast" ''Nothing for
a clever thief interrupted NJ earlier.
"Here is newspaper; fold it, and but
ton it in your breast-pocket Now, |
will not promise you it will be there
when you leave the Prefecture ~
''The director laughed, and declared
it was impossible, while he carefully
placed the newspaper at the side of his
pocket-book. The two gentlemen re,
mained sometime in conversation, dur
ing which the Prefect of Police was re-
ceiving people and writing orders.
When the director rose to go, M. Car
lier, after shaking hands with him, said
by the by, l suppose you have the
newspaper all rightr But 10 and be-
hold |! to the intense stupefactionn of the
director, bothIpocket-book and paper
had disappeared, whereupon the Pre-
feet. rang the bell, and the property
was brought back by the amateur thief,
who had done the deed on pencil
command from his master, and the as
tonished owner of the stolen pocket
book then and there declared his COM
plete belief in his cashiers innocence" "

A GlgantIe Ant atorr.
At his lecture in New York, o.
Equatorial Africa, m. Da Chai1iu tol,

As his lecture in New York, on
Equatorial Africa, N. Da Chaiiiu told
ttthe following big ant story..
/ The BashikonaV ants may we'd be
called the lords of the forest They are
the most voraeieas creatures / ever met.
They are the dread of all living animals,
from the leopard to the smallest insects.
1t is their habit to march through the
forest in long regular line, a line
about two inches broad and often sever
al miles in length, all along this line
are larger ants, who act as officers
stand outside the ranks, and keep this
singular army in order. If they come
to a place where there are no trees to
shelter them from the sun, whose heat
they cannot bear, they Immediately
build an underground tunnel, through
which the whole army pass in columns
TO the forest beyond.
When they grow hungry, as by a
sudden command, the long line spreads
itself through the forest advancing for
ward, attacking and devouring ali ly-
ing things with a fury that is quite ir-
resistible. The elephant and gorilla
fly before them; the black men run
away; every animal that lives in their
line of march is chased. In an in
credible short space Of time those that
are caught are overwhelmed, killed,
eaten, and only bare skeletons remain.
They seem to travel day and night
Many time have ] taken to the water
to save myself from them. When
they enter house they clear Il of
everything. Cock-roaches are devour-
ed in an instant; rats and mice spring
around the room in vain. They will
not touch vegetable matter, thus they
are very useful, clearing the couutry-of
many insects. When on their march
the insect world flies before them, and
| have often had the approach Of
Bashikonsy army heralded to me By
this means. s1a ,,a-s.s
a5 Wherever they 90 they make olesn
sweep, even ascending to the tops of
the trees in pursuit of their pIey. Their
manner of attack is an impetuous leap;
instantly the strong pinchers are fasten-
ed, and they only leave 60 when the
piece gives away. At such time this
little insect seems animsted by a kind
of fury which causes it to disregard en-
tirely its own safety. The negroes re-
late that criminals, by which they gen
orally mean wizards, have sometimes
been exposed on the path of the Bash
ikonay ants, tied to tree so they might
not escape, and then be deyoured to
the bones. They are larger than any
ants we have in America. The number
of one Of. the armies is so great that
one does not like to enter into cslcula-
ton, but I have seen continuous line
passing at a good speed particular
place for twelve hours So you NAV
imagine how many millions there NAV
have been, T0E ~ If81

CFrOm the Cincinnati Comusrcial.1

stood by the counter and called for ices
of writing paper and pen and ink The clerk
brought the desired articles 10 her, and she
commenced to write note. As she did so,
the clerk noticed that she was dressed sIe-
gantly, and that hundreds of dollars Rlisteu-
ed through diamonds on her fingers. He
noticed, also, that her face was handsonIs
but there was an expression upon it then
that rendered it repHlsive, despite its beauty.
The cheeks were flushed as il with strong
fever, the Grs. worked uneasily, aud the
eyes relied like those Of maniac. While he
was studying ths strange expression Of her
face, he noticed that the pen wandered ir-
regularly over the paper, and very soon lie
saw it drop from the nerveless fingers, as the
face paled suddenly, and the form, with its
robes of velvets and silks, dropped TO the
floor in limp, shapeless heap. Several
physicians were on hand Immediately; and
they, in their efforts to restore the woman 10
her senses, discovered that. she was dead
drunk. On this occasion she was taken by
kind hands 10 safe place, where she was
gradually !sobered. Her absence, however,
greatly alarmed her relatives.
