A proposition has been made to dis
pense with the Wesleyan Female col.
lege, and erect a new building, for fe.
male instruction. 1t is stated that if
the project should be rarr.ed out, and
the old building sold, it will not inter
fere with, or jloparlize the inter.s: Of
those 'olding claims against it. Presi-
dent Williams, and majority of the
board OF Trustees, are in favor nf the
scheme, and at a recent meeting OF the
board, a committee was appointed to
search for An eligible site for the pur.
pose.
The projectors think that it has been
clearly shown, that female college can
be made "a paying institution in this
city, especially with the Improvements
they contemplate introducing, should
their views he carried out.
There are already number of premi-
nent citizens, who have given their
hearty approval and promised their ac-
tive cooperation also the means TO C .rry
the plan into effect. There is now no
college for females, that properly fills
the want, aid the idea is to erect a
building IN this city, that will meet all
the requirements Of the present day.
The na.ter being referred to com
mites; it will PROBABLY remain qalct
until the next meeting Of the board Of
Trustees, at which time the committee
is expected to make y full report when
the subject will be decided upon.

SliEgisrellallg,
A Funeral OF Ants.

The ant has long been an object Of
special interest with naturalists and
others, who say many wonderful things
about him, and who back him up
strongly for possessing remarkable
degree of intelligence. One of these
gentlemen, an acute observer of the in
sect, furnishes very interesting in
cident of funeral procession. Having
accidentally killed q number of straying
soldier ants, he noted q commotion
among the adjacent surviving relations,
and determined to watch their proceed
ings closely, following four or five that
started from the rest toward hillock o
short distance off, in which was an ants
nest. This they entered and in about
five minutes reappeared, followed by
others, and all fell into rank, walking
regularly two by two, until they arrived
at the spot where the dead bodies of
the soldier ants lay. In few moments
two of the ants advanced and took up
the dead body Of comrade; then
two others, and 80 on until all were
ready to march, First walked two ant
bearing body, then two without bur-
den, then two others with another dead
ant, and so on until all the defunct in
sects were elevated Then the process
sion moved slowly onward, followed by
an irregular body of about 200 ants. o.
casionally the two laden ants stopped,
and, laying down the dead ant, it was
taken up by the two walking unbur.
dened behind them; and thus they ar
rived at a sandy spot which seemed to
suit. Here the body of ants now COM
menced digging with their jaws holes in
the ground. into each of which dead
ant was laid, and then they laborod un-
til the graves were reAlled. This did
not quite finish the remarkable pro-
ceeding. Some six or seven of the ants
had attempted to run off without per-
forming their share of the digging;
these were caught, brought back, and
promptly killed on the spot. A single
grave was quickly dug, and they were
all dropped into it.-Poasr's AaaericGn

A Butter Test.

This test of butter will be read with
surprise by some. II is from the Paris
Journal de Phnmacie: Rub some of the
suspected butter on piece of broad
cloth. If the butter disappears without
leaving stain it was pure, however
poor. But if it leaves "grease spot"
it had been more or less mixed with
fats. Perhaps readers will now recall
to mind how singularly free from spots
of any kind the clothing of dealers in
butter usually is, although these men
n sampling their goods not unfrequent-
ly find that some butter had been
dropped on their dress. The fact is that
butter instead of soiling broadcloth is
useful for cleansing it.

A Soldiers Presence Of Mind.

1t was during the siege of Wagner,
and the Union parallels were but few
hundred yards away from the grim
black tubes that ever and anon "en-
bowled with outrageous noise and air
disgorging foul their horrid glut of iron
globes" A line of abattis was to be
built across q clear space in point-blank
range of the Confederate gunners and
sharpshooters in front. Is
"Sergeant, says the officer in charge,
ego pace that opening and give me the
distance as near as possible"
Says the sergeant flor we will let him
tell the rest of the story:
II started right off. When I got to
the opening I put 'er like ship in q
gale of wind. What with grape, canis-
ter, round shot, shell and regular
bees nest of rife balls, 1 just think there
must have been fearful drain of ann
munition on the Confederate army
about that time. I don't know how it
was, but I didn't get SO much as o
scratch, but I did get powerfully scared.
When I got under cover 1 couldn't er
told for the life er me whether it was
hundred or q thousand PAGES. I should
sooner er guessed hundred thousand.
Says the captain We'll, sergeant.
what do you make itp
"Soon's I could get my wind, says l,
'Give guess, captain p
"He looks across the opening q second
or two and then says: "A hundred
and seventy-fve PAGES, say
Thunder, captain says I, you've
made pretty close guess. It's just =
hundred and seventy-one.'
"And," concluded the sergeant, after
the laugh had subsidized, "that's how I
got my shoulder-straps."

"It's the rheumatic, doc," grosned
the patient. "My whole back is jest

"Let me see your tongue" said the

That will do. Take this prescription,

Nightfall.
Lie still, o hearth
Crush out thy vainness and unreached desires.
Mark how the sunset fires,
Which kindled ell the ives. with red and gold.
Are slumbering meath the amethystine glow
OF the receding day, whose tale is told.
Stay, stay thy questionings. What woulds'

Now turn to God.
Night is too beautiful for us to cling
To selfish sorrowing.
o memory the grass is ever green
Above thy grave; but We have brighter
things
Than thou hast ever claimed or known, 1
Day is for tears. At night the soul hath
wings
To leave the sod.
Soft is the air,
And not leafet rustles to the ground
To break tho calm around.
Creep little wakeful heart, into thy most;
The world 10 full Of flowers even yet.
Close fast thy dewy eyes, and be at rest.
Pour out thy plants at day, II thou mus
fret;
Day is for care.
The thought Of night,
That comes to us like breath OF primrose time
That comes like the sweet rhyme
OF pure thought expressed, lulls all our
fears,
And stirs the angel that is in us-night,
Which is o sermon to the soul that hears.
Hush for the heavens with starlets are
alight.
