injury TO some of his victors Now one
red ant would struggle himself free from
his assailants, and attempt to retreat, but
only to rush into the jaws of death in
another part of the battlefield. Then
another would run to the assistance of a
red comrade in distress, when both shared
the common fate Thus the conflict was
waged; all the time terrific slaughter was
going on-carnage as serious in the world
of ants as any recorded in the :" Fifteen
Decisive Battles" and in that war
among the lower orders in the scale of
nature, which an unref1ecting mind
might look upon without seeing any
thing to wonder at, one could almost
imagine he saw the display of as much
pluck and heroism as was exhibited by
the hosts of Greece on the plains of
Troy. 1t was most interesting to see
the movements and counter-movements
of the contending forces; the wheeling,
advance, and retirement and return of
the little black squadrons, and
the still more furious and desperate
charges of the red legions The excite
ment, energy, and activity on both sides
was wonderful to behold But the over
towering numbers of the black ants COM
pletely precluded the possibility of q
victory on the part of the red ones
Thousands were in the field ready to
step into the vacant ranks, and millions
more were on the march from the
burrow. The line of 100 yards between
the place of fighting and their fortifca-
ton was black and thick and while some
which had taken part in the fray were
returning, still more formidable rein
forcements were coming up at full speed
with all the pomp and circumstance of
war" 1t would take too long to describe
many other features of this extraordinary
battle which would not fail to strike an
attentive observer; and this hurried &C
count of a somewhat important episode
in the natural history of the district
must be concluded with the statement
that toward evening the red ants were
utterly routed and only a few stragglers
escaped to tell the tale: but for hours
afterward the black conquerors swarmed
about, no doubt to celebrate the conquest
in manner becoming to an ant COM
munity.

Partisan Eccentricities.

A CORRESPONDENT at Paris tells the fol
lowing amusing story: A very unfortu
nate young man was pointed out to me
yesterday. He had lived in the country
till he was twenty-five years of age,
when he became his own master, inherited
large fortune, and resolved to go and
live in Paris. He was, however, de-
termlned not to vegetate in the capital,
but to become the talk of the town from
| the very first, and to signalize himself by
some eccentricity or other. That was
an ambition easily satisfied, since for the
last few months it has sufficed for
gentleman to drive out daily in sledge
in order to become the hero of Paris for
whole week. Our young gentleman hit
upon another idea almost as ingenious.
He possessed a very white Newfound-
land dog, and black cat quite as hand
some as the dog This couple led a cat
and dog life in every sense Of the term.
The young gentleman resolved to make
peace between the two enemies, and to
become famous by their means. After
few months his efforts were crowned
with success; the cat would mount on
the dogs back, and the couple would
thus follow their master, at first when he
walked and in course of time when he
rode. In the small village where our
hero resided his success was prodigious
He was the talk even of the whole de-
partment. When he felt sure Of his two
animals the young man started for Paris,
taking along with him his horse, his dog,
and his cat, The day after his arrival in
town, at four in the afternoon on one of
the recent fine days, he mounted his
horse and made the cat mount the dog,
and all four started in the direction of
the Arc de Triomphe From the Place
de la COncorde up to the Round Point of
the Champs Elysees their march was one
of triumph. The young man, overioyed
at his success, proud of his idea, gravely
continued his victorious march, for in
such cases GOODNESS is half the battle
Alas! the finest dreams are the first to be
dissipated. The Round Point became
the Tarpeian Rock of the cavalier who
was mounting to the Capitol. Just as he
was passing in front of the Italian En-
bassador's a scavenger, jealous Of his ris-
ing fame, spouted the water With which
he was laying the dust against the dog
and cat. At this unexpected attack dog
and cat set up dismal howl, and, for
getting their role, scampered off in light,
one right the other left, before their mas
ter and teacher had time to calm their
terror. The crowd laughed loud and
long: the unfortunate young man never
more set ewes on either the dog or the
cat, and returned home as obscure as
when he went out.

At present, actors end actresses arc paid cno.-

ies anywhere between $50 and 300 week. It
ls th1s as much es anything which eats into

The rrcsont large salaries paid actors nre owing
to the competition among managers to obtain
good people. Theatres have multiplied nowadays
without any corresponding supply Of artists. and
