LOVE FOR ANIMALS.

From an article in MacmIllaR'S Mag
aStne we take the following:
Theirs sympathy with animals was
one of the lovable features of his disposi-
tion. In looking over memoranda of
visits paid to him | find some of a
breakfast at the Elysee, of which Gen
eral Chanzy, NJ. Rouland, the Governor
of the Bank of France, an African trav-
eller, the Presidents family and house
hold, and | sat down. The converse
ton, which had run upon the war in
demnity, Count Arnim's incredulity as
to its payment, and the climates of Yer
sailles and Enghien, turnedupon horses.
NJ Thiers going to visit a horse show
in the evening. He expressed great
sympathy with the chevaline race, and
spoke in glowing terms of the exquisite
SenSibiltyof the race-horse. The mod
ern thoroughbred, the pride of English
grooming, was not SO picturesque, he
said, as the old-fashioned hunter. But
it was superior in its capacity to express
delicate shades of feeling. Blind peo-
pie had sort of facial sense which ena-
bled them, unassisted by their hands, to
tell the height of man in passing him
by; whether the shutters of shop were
up or down, or whether the countenanCe
of a person before them was severe or
smiling. The whole skin of thorough
bread horse, he imagined, was endowed
with this sense. He thought that if the
horse had the organ of speech it would
be the most demonstrative being in crea-
ton. Nature gave it mask which, by
drawing down the skin tight over its
face debarred mobility of expression.-
1t could not, because of its bulk, rub
against human being like cat, or paw
like dog, or wag its tail, or whine, or
utter sounds that careSsed the ear. Yet,
such was the intensityof its feeling, that
it found channels for its eloquent express
sion. What in art or nature was there
so eloquent as the eye, the noStril, and
the quivering skin of the thoroughbred
M. St. Hilaire here observed that the
skin sensibility of the horse is becoming
more developed. Iventured to observe
that the race-horSe one sees now at
LongchampS is a less splendid animal
than the thoroughbred of thirty years
ago. Thiers agreed that it was less Wig
orous and picturesque. The exquisite
barbs of Gascony were instanced as an
argument in favor of the persistence of
a fine type, which once fixed isnot easily
degraded.

RECOGNITION AMONG ANTS.--The
combatS and communications of ants
are among the most interesting and mys
terious phenomena. The Rev. H. c.
McCook has given an account to the
Academy of Natural Sciences in this city
of some experiments he has made to de-
termine what is the mode of recognition
among ants. He has studied the pave
ment ants { ZShamO'7nm ftRbltHm, } which
he has observed engaged in continued
combat for over fortnight, the warriors
being only the workers or neuters.-
There is no distinguishable difference
between the ants of the fighting parties,
yet they recognize each other infalibly
as friend or foe. They challenge all
comers with their antenn@ if they are
friends, they pass on if foes, they
straightway interlock and "fall to."
Sometimes many ants are congregated
against one, which is being torn limb
from limb. Mr. McCook surmised that
recognition was based upon certain
odor emitted by the respective factions.
He found that if they were enveloped
in an odor of eau-de-cologne, while not
at all deprived of activity, all became
harmonious those who were previously
engaged in battle unclasping one anoth-
er, and they went on for several days
amicably feeding, burrowing, and build
ing. The same experiment was tried on
the carpenter ants, which behead their
enemies their hostile proceedings were
not stopped by eau-de-cologne.

THE OLD DOCTORS STORY.

We were a knot of doctors, enjoying
ourselves after meeting of the Hippo
cratic Medical Society, whose members
were accustomed to assemble once year
for purposes of mutual edifcation and
improvement. DIR. Galen Cupps was in
the chair. He was our Nestor, our old
man eloquent, living professional le-
gendary budget. On his face you could
read entertainment" as plainly as you
ever saw it painted on an old fashioned
tavern sign; and to it, after day of
weary rambling over the dusty paths of
theraputic lore, we turned as naturally
for refreshment as the tired wayfarer
halts before the inviting sign-board wav-
ing hospitable welcome to the cheer
within.
Genial DR.. Cupps Like father
Grimes, that good old man ''we'll never
see him more" No monument marks

undertakers, possessed they spark of

enterprise and the large Immigrant have
fallen snto the hands of irresponsible
spectators, who care less about the early
completion of the road, than the oppor-
tunity to enrich themselves out of it. If
this is the case, it will not be the first
time that land grants have fallen into
such hands and the completion of the
roads delayed years thereby.
In our opinion the time is past when
Spectators, by securing the possession
of important railroad franchises and
land grants, and by some "Credit Mo-
bilier" arrangement, secure money
enough by the sale of bonds secured by
mortgage upon the land grant to con-
siruct the road, leaving the company
controlling owners of the road, without
the investment of dollar. We do not
say that such an attempt is being made
with the large land grant of the Mar
quette and Mackinaw road, but there are
indications pointing that way We deem
it the duty of the state authorities to
look fully into this matter, and if it is
found that anything of the kind is Icing
attempted to promptly take measures to
counterfeit it. TOR such an attempt under
the pr ,seEt financial condition of the
country may either delay the construction
of the :oad for years, or worse, ultimate
ly defeat it.

THE Democrats in the House of Repre-

so large as to allow the 'bumne Of
that party to spend their time in the adj.
jacent saloons without jeopardzing their
party majority. For that purpose, and
apparently without 10 other justification
on the 9TH they unseated MIR. PacheO, who
was electedsto Congress from the Fourth
California district, and seated Mr.. Wig

adds another to the outrageous decisions

THOSE who are fortunate enough to
be railroad stockholders will generally
agree that the business of railroad con-
strlction in this country has been great
ly overdone. According to the state
ments of Mr.. Galusha A. Grow. of Penn
sylyania, there had been built in 1877, at
cost of $5,OOO,OOO,OOO, 7O,65l miles of
railroad, al average of one mile OF road
to every 575 OF population. But all ex-
perience in railroading proves that for a
railroad 10 pay anything there must be
on an average TO the mile not less than
900 persons tributary to the business of
the road. In England the average per
mile is 1,9l6, and in France 2,940, and
yet but few of their railroads pay.

BR1GANDAGE ON A LARGE SCALE.
Thousands Of Armed Robbers on the Mace
donian Borders.

The Macedonian border is at the present
moment in a very uncomfortable condition,
owing to the proceedings of the semi
brisand, semi-insurgent bands commanded
by Axelos, Bodosi, and other chiefs, who, af-
ter the unsuccessful attempt to stir up re-
bellion in the province of Thessaly, crossed
over from Greece, left the region of Mount
Pelion and the neighborhood of Vola and of
Macrintza, and retired to the mountains of
the three Macedonian dis riots of Grevena,
Anasselitza and Castoria. Taese robbers
or rebels, numbering about three thousand
men, are provided with long range French
Gras rifles, and have good supply of am
munition. They commit no murders, and
have decreed the penalty of death against
any of their number guilty of misconduct
toward woman; but they have no like
scruples as to robbery, their practice being
to mulct the leading men of the villages i'll
large sums of money, and in the event of a
refusal to carry them off to the mountains,
Their lawless deeds have excited
general panic in the district. Turks
and Christians alike are afraid of car
rying on their usual occupations, and those
who can afford it are, it is stated, making ar
rangements for leaving the country. A cor
respondents of the ConstantinopIe Messen-
ger, writing from Statista on November 18th,
says that all the rich families of Clissoura
are preparing to leave for Constantinople, by
way of Salonica, while all the notables of the
neighboring villages of Statista have taken
refuge in that town, where there some
regular troops, nd where also lives the bish-
oP OF Sissania, whose presence, however, can
hardly add much to the security of the
place.
