~ ANTS BRAIN.

Well may Darwin speak OF the brain OF
an ant as one Of the most wondrous par.
ticles of matter in the world. We are
apt to think that it is impossible for so
minute piece of matter to possess the
necessary complexity required for the
discharge OF such elaborate functions.
The microscope will no doubt show some
details in the ants brain, but these fall
hopelessly short in revealing the refine.
ment which the ants brain must really
have. The microscope is not adequate to
show us the texture OF matter. 1t has
been one OF the great discoveries of mod.
ern times to enable us to form some numer-
zeal estimate of the exquisite delicacy of
the fabric which we know as inert mat.
ter Water, or air, or iron may be di.
vided and subdivided, but the process
cannot be carried on indefinitely There
is well-defined limit. We are even
able to make some approximation to the
number OF molecules in given mass of
matter Sir w. Thompson has estimated
that the number of atoms in a cubic inch
of sirasto be expressed by the figure Q,
followed by no fewer than twenty
ciphers. The brain of the ant doubtless
contains more atoms than an equal
volume of air; but even ii we suppose
them to be the same, and if we take the
size Of an ants brain to be a little globe
one-thousandth of an inch in diameter, we
are able to form some estimate of the
number of atoms it must contain. The
number is to be expressed by writing
down 6, and following it by eleven
ciphers. We can imagine these atoms
grouped in SO many various ways that
even the completely of the ants brain
may be ineligible when we have sc
many units to deal with. An illustration
will perhaps make the argument clearer,
Take million and half of little black
marks, put them in certain order, and We
have wondrous result-Darwin's Ode
scent of Man." This book merely consist,
of about l, 500, 900 letters, placed one after
the other in certain order. Whatever
be the complexity of the ant s brain, it i.
still hard to believe that it could not b.
fully described in 100000 volumes, eacl
as large as Darwin's work. Yet the
number of molecules in the ants brair
is at least 400, 600 times as the number o
letters in the memorable volume in ques
ton. -tLongman's Magazine.
