Til 0 Cruelty OF Monkeys.

An amateur naturalist, writing of the
'fondness Of cruelty for its own sake OBJ
servahle in the human species, says !:
:" To refef to the striking similarity of
this passion in man to that which is man
ifested by monkeys, is not, of course, to
explain it's origin but am quite sure
that it is In the MONKEYS that this ex-
planationis to be sought. Every one
knows that these animals show the keen
est delight in wnntonly torturing others,
bnt every ono does not know how
much trouble an average monkey will
put himself to in order that he may
crafty this taste. One example will
suffice. A friend who has lived long
time in India tells me that he has not
unfrequently seen monkeys feigning
death, for m hour or two at time, for
the express purpose Of inducing crows
and other carniverous birds to approach
within grasping distance; and when
one of the latter was caught, the de-
lighted monkey would put it to all kinds
of agonies, of which plucking alive
seemed to be the favorite. AS am not
aware that any other animal exhibits
this instinct. of inficting pain for it's
own sake (the case Of cat with n
mouse, belonging, I think, to another
category, L believe, ii its origin is ever
60 receive a scientific explanation, itwill
be found in some way connected with
monkey life."

The Senators.

The "points" of some of the United
States senator's are pithily summarized
by Washington correspondent. Conk-
ling is the senatorial Adonis. When he
was in the house the young ladies used
to SIT in the galleries and wish they had
lock of the dear little curl that adorns
his brow, and, as it is thinner now than
it used to be, it is probably even dearer
1t is rather singular that the three
bachelors OF the senate should be the
favorite presiding officers Wilson, er.
oDfcioj' Anthony, pro tena., and Ferry,
OF Michigan, in default of either. An
thony is the handsomest; still, it is not
always beauty that wins. Gordon, the
confederate general, is ine.looking,
soldierly fellow. Bayard, OF Delaware,
is the third generation of senators in his
family. Frelinghuysen is something of
swell. Edmunds, his neighbor, is the
most quarrelsome of senator's. Thurman
looks and moves like Beeoher. Dorsey
isonly thirty three years old, the ''baby"
OF the senate. Cameron is the oldest
senator. Dorsey, Allison and Oglesby
have young and pretty wives. Stewart
and Jones are two poor, impecunious
miners, with only few millions apiece
Jones especially. whose income per
month is $250,000. Upton is funny
little fellow, Schurz an admirable speak-
or, but Fenton has the most courtly
manners in the senate. Hamlin, of
Maine, always wears dress coat, mover
an overcoat. Flanagan, of Flanagan's
Mills, Texas, is jolly old fellow, who
says "whar" and "thar," and rouses
the echoes generally when he speaks.
Robertson wears jewelry of fabulous
value--emerald sleeve, buttons worth o
fortune, and diamond studs that would
make the idols of India jealous.
