A WASP OF BRA1Ss--Evcr since I
was little boy have noticed frequently
that the nests of mud wasps when broken
in upon would shell out 4 lot of dissec-
ted spiders and other like insects in
smaller proportion. l had always sup
posed that even so formidable en- insect
as wasp would hardly want anything
to do with good full grown spider, for
I knew enough of the combativeness Of
the latter to presume that he would
not meekly submit to the sacrifice of
his progeny to satisfy the appetite of a
wasp. But one day | saw little de.
monstration which made the whole
thing very clear to me. You know of
the careful manner in which the spider
builds and encloses the nest in which
his young are brought forth and reared? !?
Well, was observing one of these nests
one morning, when l saw q mud wasp
come buzzing along and alight within
an inch or two of it, on the side oppo-
site the opening After all was quiet he
proceeded with his little game of STRAIT
egy. i,
Creeping noiselessly around toward
the opening or entrance to the nest, he
stopped little short of it, and for q
moment remained perfectly quiet.
Then reaching out one of his auten-
ne, he wriggled it before t. opening
and withdrew it. This overture had
the desired effect, for the boss of the
nest, as large spider a. one ordinari-
ly sees. came out to see what was wrong
and to set it to rights. No sooner had
the spider emerged to that point when he
was at the worst disadvantage than the
wasp, with a movement quicker than a
wink, swung the rear portion of his body
around and thrust his sting through the
body of his foe, killing him easily and
almost instantly.
The experiment was repeated on
the part of the wasp, and when there
was no response from the inside he be-
came satisfied, probably that he held the
fort. At all events, he proceeded to enter
the nest aud slaughter the young spiders,
which were afterwards lugged of one at a
time.
You see this accounts fully for the spi.
der lining which we always see in the
nest of mud wasps, and makes it all as
clear as if that particular wasp had told
me beforehand what he proposed by his
strategy to accomplish. Now it is just
such demonstrations as this which must
convince us of the intelligence of the
lower animals, differing only in degree
and development from the intelligence
of man. Of course much Of this goes
beyond my comprehension, but l under
stand more about it now than ever be-
fore, for I have taken pleasure in observ.
ing and studying not only the habits OF
many other creatures inferior to man,
which are popularity supposed to be gov
erned in their actions by instinct.-1fr.

One Acc

In making record of the accident on
the E. t., Va. & Ga. r. Z the partlc.
ulars of " hich are elsewhere given, We
have been reminded of the fact that
such occurrences are very rare on this
thorougbfare. Looking back over the
history of the road, we find that there
has been no disaster. 10 any passenger
train on this line of road. involving
the loss of life, since 1872, when
what is known as the Greene
Vile grade disaster" occurred, and
that without ceDsurable negligence
or Encouragement on the part of the
authorities of the road. Il gives US
pleasure to testify to the careful man-
agement Of the running affairs of this
great line OF travel, for the reason that
We have felt bound TO criticize plainly
and severely the policy of the COM
pany in regard to our local commerce.
We have always felt that there is no
road In the country more carefully
conducted, so far as relates to the pru-
dental busine-3 management of its
operations. Whatever We find in
the commercial policy Of the
company to ceneure, we do not
hesitate to condemn, as the readers
Of the Dispatch must be fully
aware. But, IS to the officers and
employees of the company we stand
ready now, as we have always done, to
bear testimony to their scrupulOus care
for the safety of the thousands Of peo-
pie whose lives are entrusted to their
charge. The present accident was un'
avoidable under the most vigilanl
management. To the travelling public
there is no safer line than the East
tennessee, Virginia and Georgia rail
road, and this may be taken as the
candidid testimony of journal by nc
means prejudieed in its favor.
Col. Charlton does himself more
credit than the railroad company, il
the foregoing article. What he say
is the simple truth. There is not
railroad in the United States that ha
a better record, in the accident line
than the E, T. Va. and Ga, railroad.
