A Funeral Procession of Ants.

One day a little boy of mine, about
four years old, being tired Of play, threw
himself down on a grassy mound to rest.
Shortly after l was startled by a sudden
scream. My instant thought was that
some serpent had stung him. l flew in
horror TO the Child, but was at once re-
assured on seeing him covered with SOL
der ants, on whose nest he had lain
himself down. Numbers Of the ants
were still clinging to him with their for
ceps, and continued to sting the boy.
My maid at once assisted me in killing
them. At length about 20 were thrown
dead on the ground. We then carried
the boy indoors. In about half an hour
afterward 1 returned to the same spot
when I saw a large number of ants sur
rounding the dead ones. 1 determined
to watch their proceedings closely. 1
followed four or five that started from
the rest toward a hillock a short dis
lance off, in which was an ants nest.
This they entered, and in about five
minutes r~eappeared, followed by others.
All fell into rank, walking slowly two
by two, until they arrived at the spot
where lay the dead bodies of the soldier
ant. In q few minutes two of the ants
advanced and took up the dead body of
one of their comrades then two others,
and so on, until all were ready to
march. First walked two ants bearing
a body, then two without a burden !;
then two others with another dead ant,
and SO on, until the line was extended
to about 40 pairs, ond the procession
moved slowly EDWARDS, followed by an
irregular body of about 200 ants. De.
c~asionally the two laden ants stopped,
and laying down the dead ant, it was
taken up by the unburdened two behind
and thus occasionally relieving each
other, they arrived at a sandy spot near
the sea. The body of ants now COM
menced digging with their jaws holes in
the ground, into each of which a dead
ant was laid, where they now laborcd on
until they had filed up the ants graves.
This did not quite finish the remarkable
circumstances attending this funeral Of
the ants. Some six Or seven Of The ants
had attempted to run Off. without per-
forming their share Of the task CT dig
ging these were caught and brought
back, when they were at once killed
upon the spot. A single grave was
quickly dug, and they were all dropped
into ii.

When quite a young man ne was
elected a member of the General Assem-
bly, Of the State of Ohio, and early in
the session he brought in a bill for the
destruction of the public whipping post.
He made an earnest speech in favor OF
the measure, to which an elderly mem
Der replied as follows: "Mr. Speaker,
the gentleman is not as old as l am, and
has not seen as much Of the practical
operation of the system Of punishment
which he desires to abolish. When l
lived in Connecticut, if fellow stole a
horse, or cut up m antics, We used to
tie him up ard give him q real good
thrashing; and he always cleared right
out and we never saw anything more of
him. It's the best way of getting rid Of
the rogues that ever was tried, and with
u expense to the State Mr.. Corwin,
who never failed to carry his point by q
joke, if the argument was against him,
only made the brief reply: MIR. Speak

went to the pile to take some money for

was so perfect he could not bear to break

of Charles S. Prentice, of Toledo, Ohio.

ment of some Of the most eminent phys
ioians of France, England and America
without benefit. His trouble was

enty years, after greatly suffering for
forty years from kidney and liver diff

Moral Effect of the Garden.

We recommend to all women who are
fortunate enough to have a piece Of land
at their command to cultivate a veget-
able garden. The culture of strawber-
ries, raspberri :, blackberries, gooseber-
RES, currants and garden vegetables is
as delightful and profitable as anything
in which a woman can engage. She may
sprinkle her garden well with flowers.
All the better for that. A SNOWFALL in
this corner, and a rose in that, a dahlia
bed there and a moss border here. will
not be out of place Only let the sub
stantial and useful constitute the chief
part. A touch of the Ornate, like a rib.
bon on a good bonnet, is not in the least
Objectionable. In all the schools the
girls study botany. 1t is healthful,
pleasing and useful. The princip es of
horticulture are the principles of botany
put into practice. Farmers study agri-
culture, why should not their wives and
daughters study horticulture The en-
ployment is both healthful and pleasant.
What woman cannot raise beets, toma-
toes, onions, lettuce and furnish her own
table with them What woman cannot
plant a raspberry bush, or currant or
gooseberry, and tend to it well The
experiment is both pleasing and profit
