terward another ant came up and went
through q precisely similar process. FL
naily the injured ant slowly disappeared
out of sight into the formicary, surround
ed by several of its companions.
How these ants knew that any of their
comrades were incarcerated at all, and
how that even then they knew precisely
in what direction they should burrow, is
one of those mysteries which battle all
conjecture. 1t shows, however, that they
must possess some sense developed to a
pitch of great intensity, and, though the
theory that insects possess a subtle sense
unknown to us seems scarcely warrant
able, yet it is hard TO see which of our five
senses, however much developed, would
in this case have helped to the discovery
of the plight of their companions. 1t
1t is the sense of hearing which they have
so acutely, IL must be modified to their
special requirements, for they appeared
quite oblivious to any sounds, however
loud, which have made for experiment
close TO the nest.
At one time my ants collected all the
rubbish which they generally threw into
the water, ~ well as a considerable
quantity of earth, and piled il together
just at the very edge of the platform over
hanging the water. They kept steadily
adding to it until it hung halfway across
the moat, being kept together by the
moisture sucked up from the water be-
low. 1t really seemed as if they planned
bridging over the moat itself but if such
was the case, their design was frustrated
by the bridge giving away before 1t
reached the other side. / once cleared ii
all away, but they forthwith set to work
to construct il again as before.

Narrow Stable Doors.

A NAN who will habitually take horse
through narrow door knows very little
of what a horse remembers, or what is
fair treatment to the animal. One single
blow on the hip against the sharp corner
of doorway is sometimes sufficient to
ruin a valuable horse. But when that
blow has been several times repeated the
horse becomes highly dangerous animal.
We have seen horse whose hips were
never healed after striking two or three
times in passing through narrow way.
Another dangerous practice is the leading
of horses out of the barn doors by the
sides of loads of hay, grain, etc. A slight
blow upon the hip will sometimes so
excite a high-spirited horse that the per-
son leading loses control over him, and
he escapes upon a jump, banging his hips
and shoulders as he proceeds, leaving
patches of skin and hair as evidence that
he has got through. Many a valuable
horse has been ruined in this way, and
many valuable one can be saved by
never leading him through narrow
space.--Neao England Farmer.

Obituary..
STYLUS.

Ton. Editor oftas Ne,o National Era:
Mrs. Caroline Harris, wife of VIM. II.
Harris, after brief illness of fifteen min
utes, peacefully breathed her last, while at
her duties as professional nurse. She left
her home apparently in good health, on
Tuesday, July eth, and at twelve o'clock that
night the lifeless body of that fond wife and
loving mother was returned to the home that
she had left in the morning, the picture of
health land strength. The sorrow and an
guish Of that household cannot be described.
She had fallen victim to the heart disease.
She was an earnest Christian lady and trained
her children to love and serve God. She died
in her forty-seventh year, having been a pro-
fessor of religion twenty-eight years. She
leaves four daughters, the youngest of whom
is eight years of age. At the time Of her
death she was member OF Shiloh Baptist
church. Rev. VIM. J. Walker preached her
funeral sermon, on the 18th, inst. "Bless-
ed are the dead that die in the Lord, hence
forty: yea, saith the Spirit, that they may
rest from their labors and their works do
follow them"
Sister, thou art gone to heaven,
We will not weep for thee,
For thou art now, where oft on earth,
Thy spirit longed to be.
Sister, thou art gone to rest,
And this shall be our prayer,
That when we reach lifes journeys end
Thy glory we may share. Z

The Attempt on Bisn,arck's Life
Catholic View OF IL.

The attempted assassination will be used
as trump-card by Bismarck and his party.
In few days the event will be developed
into an Ultramontane conspiracy against the
Empire, and will be appealed to in order to
justify past and future persecution OF the
Church in Germany. Already this coloring
is beginning to appear. It is significantly
asserted that the fool was seen frequently in
the company of a Catholic priest. or course
the inference is insinuated that the unknown
priest urged him to this deed of blood.
Again, as an additional evidence that the
fool was a tool of a Jesuit plot, we are In
formed that a poem laudatory Of the Pope
was found on his person. A Prussian court,
organized to convict, requires no more proof
to fasten the guilt upon the Church, and the
secular anti-Catholic press will indorsc its
judgment with alacrity.
Nothing could be more opportune Tor the
arch-persecutor of Catholics than this at
tempt upon his miserable life. 1t would be
we'll not TO overlook the fact that it hap
pened Immediately after the bold, defiant
resolutions of the Catholic Congress at May
ence were published to the world. The
Catholic enthusiasm of that assembly, and

ing episcopacy of Germany, could not have
failed to alarm tile monster, the lengtAening Of

The valiant Policeman.

Some friend of the valiant policeman of
Uniontown. appears in print in the Chronicle
for the purpose Of replying to our statement,
published last week, in regard to a Disgrace
full occurrence Oh or near the Navy Yard
bridge. We received our information from
an eve witness in whom we have confidence,
aud il will take something more than the
blackguardism of the Uniontown friend Of
the policeman to shake that confidence.
The friend of Policeman w. Il. Anderson
saws that the ERA finds no fault with Lingon
Anderson. We know that Lingon Anderson
is an excellent officer, and have never known
of his doing anything to provoke breach OF
the law, and make arrests in order that he
might be accounted a vigilant officer. On
the contrary, we have noticed that his efforts
have always been to preserve the peace and
quiet of his beat without resort to nippers
and the billy. The result is that he has
succeeded so well that everybody respects
him, and when he attempts to make an
arrest 40 one feels that there is any spite
fitness in it, and no resistance is ever made
10 him. In our account of the "kill the
Nigcer'' mob the officers were not charged
with throwing stones, but the mob was, and
our informant, who saw the affair, states
emphatically that one cOlored manor, as
the policeman's refined friend has it,
"darkey'-was chased and stoned without
rebuke from the officer.
The fiendish delight taken at the clubbing
of one-arned negro by a six-eoot healthy
policeman, with all his arms in sound co. d-
ton, is exhibited by the following language
of Policeman VIM. T. Anderson's admiring
friend: "The beating, by the way, consisted
of two raps on Scotty's cocoa, which cut him,
Gu did not hurt his prorerbially thick skull"
The communication in the Chronicle is full OF
the inspiration of cowardly hatred of the
'proverbally thick skulled." The gentle.
manly and Christian policeman has fitting
ally who defends him, not over his true
name, but in the ambush Of nom de plume,
and by distorting the article in the ERA.

Why Georgia IL Poor.

All! says the Macon Telegraph, one need
but study and contrast figures to see how
poor Georgia is and why she is poor. With
largely increased population our products
have diminished in far greater ratio, until
we have ceased to feed ourselves, and now
spend our cotton product In buying susie
nance, which the population Speaking of il
as whole) are too indolent to raise by
their own labor. 1t is bad showing, and
never will be permanently improved, until
the stern fiat of Coz Almighty is brought,
by necessity-the operation Of public opinion
and laws and police embodying the same
to every mans door, and white and black
are made to feel that they must work or
starve. Sg-z
And these figures also tell us what our So
called big corn crops in Georgia now amount
TO. We consume, say about forty million
bushels of corn, and this year we will raise
hfteen million bushels, leaving us twenty-five
million bushels to buy at a cost of twenty
i've million dollars-more but not less. Well,
we raise, say about 900 bales of cotton,
at net of fifty dollars to the bag, bring
ing us, say $27 500, 900, and when we set
tie the corn bills we shall have balance of
$4,000, 900 in hand wherewith to pay our
meat and guano bills and square dry goods
accounts.
And if these figures are little or a good
deal too round, still we have the mortifica-
lion OF feeling that they squint at actual facts
quite too directly, and that is the real reason
why we are all broken, and never can be 9TH
erwise, till We cease to buy our bread and
meat and learn to produce it every year out
OF the ground.
Now this will be another year when plant
ers will raise enough corn ITO do them," and
miss it by fifty per cent. The foundation of
pecuniary ease and independence must be
laid in abundance Of all sorts-in a general
fitness of supply in which we need 60 abroad
for nothing to eat, either for man or beast.
When our farms abound not only in corn, but
in all that abundance which corn produces
in fat poultry, mutton and pigs, and no man
thinks of selling his cotton to supply his
larder.-SdrannQh Adreniser.
