The Cabbage Butterfly.

Insect invaders appear to be coming
upon US from the East and from the West.
From the latter point we already have the
potato beetle and we cannot but have our
fears aroused sometimes by the relentless
grasshoppers, although our learned in
structors tell US there is no danger here to
be expected from that source. From the
East now comes new enemy of our
gardens, the cabbage butterfly.
The general color is white, though a
yellow variety of the males is said to
have made its appearance. In both sexes
there is dash of black at The apex of
the front or primary wings, black spot
near the outer margin of the same, about
midway between the front and inner mar
gins. a similar spot on the front margin
of the posterior, or back wings, while the
female has second spot on the primary
wings near the posterior border and IS
more densely specked with black. Be
meath, the markings are much the same,
both sexes having two spots on the prim-
aries corresponding in position to those
on the upper surface of the same in the
females The wings beneath are also
tinted with yellow, especially near the
tips, which feature is important, as in
rare cases the spots are so obscure, or so
entirely absent. that the yellow tint be-
comes of much importance in determin-
ing the species.
The eggs are laid beneath the cabbage
leaves in clusters Of two or three. They
are so small as to escape notice, but under
the microscope are seen to be beautifully
marked They are white first, but soon
turn yellow.
The first butterflies appear in April or
May, and begin the work of egg laying;
and very soon the tiny green farve are
ready to issue, eating their way out of the
shell. They then feed on the tender
leaves OF the cabbage, working their way
directly to the tenderer leaves Of the core.
In June and July the second brood Of
Duffernies appear, when the same round
OF mischief is repeated, but this time
with force vastly increased in numbers.

OF remaining week, continues through

Fight Between Lion and Leopard.

The Geological Gardens at Pesth have
just been the scene of q combat worthy Of
Nero or Heliogabalus. The cage tenanted
by lion and lioness happened to be next
to that in which dwelt female leopard,
for whom the captive queen of the desert
entertained a special hatred Probably
she was jealous of the bright eyes and
beautiful skin of her neighbor, and may
possibly have suspected her lord and mas
Ter Of casting a tender regard or two
across the barrier which separated the
two dens.
the suspicion, brooded over in silence,
became devouring passion, and it ripen-
ed into certainty at the precise moment
when vengeance happened to become pos
sible. The keeper of the gardens had in
advertently one day left hanging within
the lions cage the chain which served to
draw up the partition, and the lion was
not long in seizing it and beginning to
pull. Whether he was animated with a
spirit of fickleness or by curiosity alone
must forever remain secret. But the
result was that the partition flew up and
the road remained open from one cage to
the other. Through it instantly rushed
the lioness, breathing hatred and malice,
but the lion had no sooner dropped the
chain and prepared to follow in chase
than the portcullis fell and the passage
was barred again.
In the meantime, however. . struggle
commenced between the two lady warriors
such as has not been seen in Europe since
the palmy days of the amphitheater. The
leopard, woFsted at the first onset, at
tempted 10 take refuge from the foe by
jumping and hanging to the top rails Of
the cage. 1t was all in vain, however.
She was broughtto bay again, and COM
pealed TO fight face to face with the terri
bic invader. For twenty long minutes
the battle ragged in royal style. The neck
and shoulders Of the lioness were deeply
furrowed with red gashes. But her VIC
tim was overmatched, and at length
thrown on her back, when the coup de
grace was given by the savage fangs of
the victor
The lion, who had been looking on
probably with mingled feelings-at the
scene, will now, no doubt, be restored to
the afecfionate confidence of his spouse
Nothing remained, at the end Of the en-
counter, Of the pretty spotted skin which
had 90 captivated him but q few torn and
mangled shreds, and the romance of the
cages, If romance there was, came to q
tragic end.-Loadon Glo5e
