EarWigS.

Those who have much familiarity
with gardening are familiar with re-
pulsive looking thing somewhat re-
sembling centipede, only very much
smaller. Well, it is called an earwig
from traditional notion that it occa-
sionally crawls into ones ear when q
chance presents. But they keep as far
from our ears as possible, from an in
stinct of danger in coming in contact
with living form larger than them
selves. A popularity in the character
of these hundred legged worms is a
manifestation of maternal tenderness
for their young, as strongly developed
in the female as in any of the higher or
ders of quadrupeds. AS soon as the
eggs are Matched, the infant earwigs
are as perfect in all their limbs and ex-
terror rs the parent, only they are minia-
ture in size and helpless. The mother
carefully broods over them and vigilant-
ly keeps them together till they are
able to forage for themselves, and then
all parental solicitude terminates
While growing and maturing under a
stone, within prescribed limits assigned
them, if they are suddenly alarmed,
clustering undert the body of the mother
for protection, she evinces determine
ton to shield them from harm by bold
ly facing an intruder. Thus in the OBJ
scure retreats of vermin, whose precise
functions in the economy of life are not
always understood, instructive efforts
for guarding the helpless young and Sc
curing the perpetuity of race, insight
fcant and unimportant as they may
seem to us short-sighted mortals, it is
morally certain they have labors to per-
form and missions to accomplish which
a philosopher contemplates with Won
der and admiration.

The Billiard Cue.

The billiard match in New York be-
tween Dion and DAILY. resulted in a
victory for Dion, who still retains tbe
diamond cue. The game as it came to
a close became intensely interesting,
and both men played with great caution,
the audience preserving the most per-
feet silence unless called upon to ap-
plaud some specially brilliant shot.
DAILY s nerve seemed somewhat shaken.
but the champion entered for his fifty-
ninth inning as cool as a cucumber, and
having made % points left the balls safe,
DAILY failing to count, Dion began his
slxtieth and last inning, finishing the
game IN fine style. The game ended at
l2:O4, occupying exactly 3 hours and 40
minutes.
AS Dion made his last shot Daly walk
ed to the table and shook hands with
him.
DAILY remarked as he left the hall "Tu
play him again and beat him. I think
his luck had a good deal to do with this
game"

To THE EDITOR OF TIE HERALD:-
notice among the dispatches of the Associated
Press one from Montreal, p O., to the effect that
the testimony Of certain witnesses lately taken in
Montreal in relation to the claims against the
British government on account OF "the St. Adams
rad,n to use the language of the despatch sis
completely at variance with the report that said
scheme was concOcted in Canada, and estab-
fishes the entire ignorance OF the authori-
ties respecting the designs Of the raiders"
Now, / beg to say, as counsel for the
claimants, being personally present at the taking
OF the testimony, that the person who made the
above statements, or his informant, is grossly
ignorant of the testimony taken, or otherwise. he
has wantonly misstated the facts. The above quo
tation Is far from the truth. The testimony on be-
half Of the British government was entirely con-
frmatory Of what many knew before, and the
British government by their Colonial Secretary,
Hon. Edward Lardwel, in letter to Lord Monk
under date OF April l, 1855, therein admit
that the raid was concocted in Canada,
and, to use Mr.. Cardwell's words, that
they (the raiders) did accordingly receive from
Mr., Clay, in Canada, instructions for the attack
which they afterwards made upon st. Adams. and
were furnished by him, In Canada, with money for
that purpose, and that they did, In fact, proceed
from Canada to st. Adams on belligerent ex-
petition under these instructions"
In confirmation OF Mr.. Cardwes statement one
OF the witnesses testified that j. Wilkes Booth and
John II. Surratt were In Montreal, the former o
little before and the latter just after Presi-
munication with George N. Sanders and
other Southern emissafies, leaving no doubt
of Mr.. Lincoln was likewise "cOncocted" in
Canada. need hardly say that 1t appeared that
"the authorities" were not entirely ignorant ere.

no reason for such misstatements at this time, un
less perhaps 1t may be thought necessary to insure
the success OF certain parties from Canada now at
