1T is stated that Senator David Davis,
who has been sojourning at Saratoga
since the adjournment of Congress, has
not abandoned the hope Of beingreturned
to the Senate, and that he places some
confidence in the Prohibition movement
in Illinois, thinking that it will be of
benefit to him. The same authority
states that Judge Davis has by no means
abandoned his Presidential ambition, but
that he thinks the present condition of
the parties is such as to make the cleo
ton Of an independent a possibility.

Col. HENRY II. HADLEY, Secretary
OF the Business Mems Society for the
Encouragement of Moderation, has made
formal demand upon the Association of
United Lager Beer Brewers of New York
City for the reward of 81 900 offered by
the association for any adulteration which
might be detected in their beer. Col.
Badley demands the reward upon the
grounds that he has detected the fact
that the President of the Brewers Asso-
citation adulterates, OF causes to be adul-
terated, the lager beer brewed in his
brewery, by the use of glucose in large
proportions. He names four charitable
institutions of the city to which the
money may be paid.

AN order having been issued by the
Secretary Of War restoring General Stur-
gis to the position of Governor of the
Soldiers Home at Washington, Adjutant
General Drum, one of the Commits
Sioners of the Home, is reported as giving
his views of the matter in very plain
terms. In regard to the rumor that the
Commissioners would resign because the
General had been restored to the posi-
ton, Surgeon General Crane and Com
missary General McFeely said chat they
should not resign, for the very good
reason, if no other, that they could not
do so without surrendering their army
commissions, and they certainly are not
disposed to do that"

IN the terrible Ashtabula disaster a
few years ago, Charles S. Carter, of
Brooklyn, n. Y, was injured. He sub
sequently received from the Railroad
company $4,000 damages. As soon as
he received the money he commenced
drinking and has been on n spree ever
since. His wife now sues Brooklyn
saloon keeper for $4,000 damages for
making her husband a drunkard. 1t
seems as if damages had already damaged
this family sufficiently without seeking

A difficulty occurred on a Fort
Pickering baseball ground yesterday
between two negro boys named John
jackson and Reuben Beecher, which
led to serious results. Jackson was
half drunk and ordered Beecher to
throw the ball to him. Beecber re-.
fused and Jackson threw a stone at
him. They then locked, and a pretty
lively fight followed, in which jack
son was worsted. About dusk yesterday
evening while Beecher stood with sew
eral others on Jackson street, jackson
stepped up behind him and without a
word Of warning thrust his knife to
the hilt in his back. jackson was at.
terward arrested by Officer Hurst and
will be brought before President Had
den tomorrow morning. Beecher's
condition to-day is said to be preca-
rious, and DR.. Mcmillan. who was
called to attend him, has serious fears
for his life.

Domestic Animals or the Ants.
St. James Gazette.


Besides the aphides, which they
milk as COWS Ito adopt the usual
simile), and whose eggs they preserve
through the winter, they keep several
other domesticated insects, belonging
to over 800 species. Most of them,
including the two commonest, a beetle
and a woodlouse, have lived so long in
their underground homes that they
have become quite blind by disuse Of
their eyes; many of them seem to pro-
duce secretions which the ants eat;
while others appear to act as scaveR-
gers, or to emit agreeable odors. In
some cases the insects are so helpless
that they have to be fed by their mas
ters.
Equally curious are the relations
subsisting between the different kinds
of ants themselves. One small spe-
cies live in the walls which partition
the nests Of a larger Deighbor, and
these occasionally carry off the larvae
of their involuntary hosts as food. In
another case a smaller kind seems to
be'kept like cats by their bigger kins-
men. Such instances, together with
the common theft of pupa, help to ex-
plain the origin of ant slavery; for sto-
len pup@ are often kept for a while
before being devoured--just as among
cannibal sayages slaves may have
arisen from the habit Of keeping and
fattening any surplus captives taken
in battle and not Immediately required
for food.

In the current number of The
Builder we find some interesting par
ticulars Of the famous cabinet maker
whose name has been a household
word with US during the last week or
two, Buhl-or Boulle, to be quite cor
rect-was, we are told, born in Paris
in l642. He was the son ola cabinet.
maker, but if he had followed his own
bent he would have become a painter,
and only adopted the line in life which
was to make him famous at the urgent
desire of his father, who wished him
to become his successor. Nothing
much is known of his early life, but
the fact that he was lodged in the
Louvre as the protege Of Louis XIV,
with carte blanche to carry out his
decoration OF the Kings palace by the
time he was thirty years of age, shows
that his artistic abilities must have
developed themselves at an early age.
From this time commissions for
work poured in upon the young cabi-
neLmaker altogether beyond his power
to execute, and he might have been
wealthy. AS a matter Of fact, however,
we are told he was constantly in pecu-
mary difficulty. This appears to have
been owing to his passion for rare
prints and drawings, for the purchase
Of which he raised money in every
direction. He had at one time q col
lection considered to have been one
Of the most complete and interesting
in existence. Unfortunately, a FIRE
broke out and destroyed the greater
part, to the intense grief Of the owner.
Over els, 600 his losses we're estimated
at-a sum which, Of course, q couple
of hundred years ago was very large.
Boulle seems to have lived in the
Louvre for half 4 century. He died
there, at the age of eighty-two, and
was buried in the church Of St. Ger
main rAuxerrois, leaving behind him
TWO sons. one Of whom, having been
employed in the Sevres manufsctory,
was the first to introduce the use Of
porcelain into furniture.
