WAR AMONG Ants AND FIsurs-Tbe Con

WAR AMONG ANTS AND FIsHEs.-The Con-
cord (N. H. People says that large body Of
black ants were seen few days ago In the
highway between Loudon and Concord,
formed in two lines extending entirely across
the road to the bank opposite. Persons
who saw them estimated their number by
the million. A severe battle was fought,
which lasted nearly an hour, after which
both sides were occupied in burying their
dead.
The New Orleans Rcayune of the 24th
contains the following account of another
similar affair:
We learn from parties just from Missls-
sippi City that very remarkable affair came
off in the water just opposite to the hotel on
Saturday aftereoon last.
A great commotion was noticed In the
water by a number of persons, and II was
soon ascertained that a school OF pOrpoises
were driving 10 a school of large red fish
towards the shore. In few moments the
red fish, being checked by the shoal water,
were compelled to turn directly toward their
fierce pursuers, and then commenced terri
BILE conflict; the water of the sound was
lashed into seething foam, and many of the
red fish were thrown completely into the
air by their powerful adversaries, whose
huge tails did immense execution. Occa-
sionally portion Of the red fish, finding an
opening In the Gordon which had been
thrown them, would dart off in the hope OF
escaping; but few Of the porpoises would
almost Instantly shoot off after the fugitives,
and heading them of, drive them back to
the scene of the conflict. The struggle last
ed about an hour, and a number of the red
fish must have been killed.

WoNEN's RIGHTs IN THEORY AND Practice.
The Lowell (Mass.) Courier tells an amusing
story of an old lady--a strenuous advocate Of
the rights Of women, as interpreted by leaders
Of the Rights Party-whO was recently q Wis
itor at the Isle Of Shoals. When she left she
was in the way of being assisted from the row.
boat to the steamer by Lowell gentleman,
when her foot slipped and in she went up to
her neck in the briny deep, carrying her faith
full assistant part way with her. The latter
however, gallatly. but with great difficulty,
held fast to the old lady with one hand and to
the steamer with the other, his feet dangling
in the water, and just keeping the old lady's
head above the surface till several men got
hold of them and pulled them on deck. The
steamer was crowded with ladies and gentle
men, among whom there was considerable
fright for while, for the woman and her as
sistant were for time in considerable danger.
The old lady behaved in the most cool and
manful manner during the whole scene. When
she was fairly out on deck, and stood there
calm and unmoved, with the briny water drip
ping from her dress, and the kind ladies all
around offering her sympathy and assistanc,
the first words she spoke were "Well, this
is the first argument / ever met with that has
at all shaken my woman's rights notions
If there had been nobody but women here I
should most certainly have been drowned"

AN AGGRAvATING SET-BAcK.-The proxim-
ity Of Mt. Carbon to the iron ores of Missouri,
and the inexhaustible abundance of smelling
coal at hand, led to the establishment Of an
IRON smelling furnace at that point. The ex-
pertinent proved a grand success, and for sew
eral weeks the work progressed most encour-
agingly. Some time since, however. the fur
mace, when charged with twenty or twenty
FIVE tons of moltsn iron, was unintentionally
permitted to cool off. That great mass Of
solid iron now lies in the bottom Of the fur
mace, and the only way it can be removed is
by the use of hammer and ehisel. The fur
mace cannot be torn down, for its erection
caused the outlay of tens of thousands Of dol
lars. Hence the immense mass Of iron must
be chisled out, chip by chip, process that
will involve the labor of months. The loss to
the Mt. Carbon Company by this occurrence
will be many thousands Of dollars.

DRIVING CANARY BIRDs.-A New York
paper, speaking about the importation of
canary birds from Germany, says the follow
ing sight was seen in Florence, Italy, in 1861,
by lady and gentleman belonging to New
York: In walking in the principal street
they overlook a man with long whip in
his hand, which he was moving from one
side to the other in what they thought
was q strange manner. When they came
up with him they found he was driving
a flock of canary birds, as in England they
drive a flock Of turkeys. A carriage came
along, the man waved his whip in peculiar
manner, when the little birds all went to the
sidewalk until the carriage had passed, when
they took to the street again. woman
wanted to buy one, when the man sprinkled
some canary seed at his feet, and half dozen
of them came to him, when he took one up
in his hend and delivered 1t to the woman,
who paid him one franc for it. The man
then went on again.

AT New Hampton, England, some houses
designed for laborers, have been built in a
novel manner. Straw is compressed into
slabs, soaked in n solution of flint to render
them hre-proof, both sides coated with a kind
of cement, and of these slabs the cottages are
built. By ingenious contrivahees, the quanti-
ty of joiner work is much reduced, and the
chimney is so constructed "a to secure warmth
with the smallest amount Of drying fuel, and
at the same time heat drying closet. The
cost of n single cottage of this description,
combining all the requirements of health,
decency and comfort" is fs5.

How the World Runs.

Across the mead at even-tide
Ny path doth ever lie;
She to her summer house hath hied,
And peeps as pass by.
OF fixed appointments have We none;
IT'S but the way the world doth run.
How first it CHANGED 1 cannot guess;
kiss her every day:
1 ask no leave-she says not yes
How first it CHANGED cannot. guess;
kiss her every day:
/ ask no leaye-she says not yes,
But still she says not nay.
When lip on lip so eager lights,
Why should we pause in our delightsi

The rose, which pearly dew-drops courts,
Says never, Give to- mel
So love her, and she loves me,
Yet neither says, 1 love hut theei

The society for relief of the East Prussians,
which was founded by the Crown Prince on
the goth of December, 1867, has terminated
its labors, as the famine has ceased. The pri-
vate subscriptions for this purpose amounted,
in all, to about 1000 900 thalers, 746, 1927 Of
which were distributed by the above society.
Many contributions were forwarded from
abroad. and, besides what may have flowed
through other channels, 47l9 thalers were
sent from Great Britain, and 1880 thalers

A WONDERFUL discovery has been made in
Algeria. An artesian well lately sunk at Ain
Sala, to the depth of forty -four meters, threw
up not only large body of water, but an
innumerable quantity OF small fish, which
are described as being on an average half an
inch in length, and resembling whitebait
both in appearance and taste. From the
fact of the sand extracted from these wells
being identical with that which forms the
head of the Nile, it is conjectnred that an
underground communication must exist be-
tween them and that river.

"Dearest papa says my boy to me,
As be merriy CLIMBED on his fathers knee,
" Why are those eges that you see me hold
Coored SO finely wig blue and gold
And what is the beautiful bird that lays
Such beautiful eggs On Easter daysr'
You have heard, my boy, of the man who died,
Crowned with keen horns and crucided;
And how Joseph, the wealthy-whom God re-
ward
Cared for The corpse of his martyred Lord,
And piously tombedit within the rock,
And closed the gate with mighty block.
Now close by The tomb fair tree grew,
With per3ulous leaves and blossoms OF blue;
And deep In the green trees shadowy breast
A beautiful singing bird sat on her nest,
Which was bordereJ with MOSES like malaohite,
And held four eggspf an ivory white.
Now when the bird from her dim recess
Beheld the Lord Ia ,his burial dress,
And looked on the Heavenly face 80 pale,
And the dear feet pierced with the cruel nail,
Her heart nigh broke with a sudden pang.
And out Of the depth Of her sorrow che sang.
All pight long till she morn was M,
She sat and sang IL her moss wreathed cup,
song of sorrow 20 wild and shrill
As the homeless wind when IL roams the hill:
So full Of tears, 20 loud and long,
That the grief Of te world seemed turned to song.
But soon there cane through the weeping hight
glimrnering angel clothed In white;
And he rolled the ,stone from the tomb away,
Where the Lord u the Heavens and the earth lay,
And Christ arose n the csyerns gloom,
And in living lustsr came from the tomb.
Now the bird that sat In the heart Of the tree
Beheld the celestial mystery,
And its heart waa filed with a sweet delight,
And ii poured q fSng on the throbbing night
Notes, climbing Iotes, stl higher, higher,
Ttey shoot 10 heaven Like spears OF fire.
When the rlittering white. robed angel heard
The sorrowing song OF that grieving bird
And heard the following chant OF mirth
That hailed ChrisS rsen from the earth,
He said, "sweet bird, be forever blest;
Tbyself, thy egga, and thy moss. wresthed nest"
And ever. my child, since that blessed night,
