Toads.


The toad is most useful thing in gar
den. had plant dreadfully infested with
wood-lice, almost destroyed by them, and a
toad located himself close by it as its protec-
tor; and, in order to be ready in an emergen-
cy, he made in the mould hole all but deep
enough to hide himself in, but not deep
enough TO prevent his having a thorough
good view OF the plant; and when a wood
louise, beetle or anything of the kind appear
ed near him or the plant, out he came and
pounced upon it-"You are minew This
was wholly his work. only watched him
sometimes, greatly pleased at the success
Another time, as l was one day walking
along path in the garden I saw toad APP
preaching; the pace was quick for toad,
but l soon saw what he was after. Just on
before him was beetle, which I expected
to see caught, but ere there was apparently
time for them to meet, the beetle disappear
ed, so quickly that my eyes was not quick
enough to see it taken, but no doubt it was
in the toad's mouth, for 1 heared a click
which told the tale of capture. Two other
toads seem to have concerted between them
how to act one evening so as to take Dor
der regularly, and in order to do their work
we'll it appeared to be arranged that one of
them should 60 on the border and the other
stay outside, having the box edgiDg between
them; and so they did their work of clearing,
keeping just opposite the one to the other !;
and was watching them from the window
above. [ wish we could act with good feel
ing towards such useful creatures. They do
much good and little harm, but have every
reason to believe that they are sometimes
treated most cruellY.-R. T., in Gardner's
Chronicle.

THURSDAY, April 10.
The formal opening of the Elm House took
place last evening and proved to be nice
time. The tables were deliberately set with all
that composed a first class supper. The
Brunswick Comet Band played some fine
music which was enjoyed by those present
and also by large crowd which thronged the
street. We hope Mr. Clark will receive a
liberal share of the patronage of the travelling
public, and we have no doubt be will.
