A Pathetic Monkey Story.

A Pathetic Monkey Story.
A pathetic monkey story is told by
"The Naturalist on the Prowr' in the
Times of India. He says:
zone morning on rocky hill, sparsely
covered with small trees, l disturbed a
troop of monkeys, which made bolt
over the open ground to some thicker
forests in the valley below. Three how
ever, disregarding me, remained in one
tree, making horrible noises at something
underneath. I soon discovered that the
object of their indignation was a brutal
looking black dog, which was busily de-
vouring something at the root of the
tree. When the dog saw me it made off
carrying in its mouth black thing, like
little animal, With legs and long tail,
[ guessed it was baby monkey, and
gave chase as hard as 1 could, but the
dog made good its escape without drop
ping it's prey.
Coming back to the tree, l searched
the ground, and found the body of an
other little infant, still warm. How did
the poor little thing fall into the jaws of
that brute? have often seen an infant
of the same size clinging to its mothers
breast in perfect rest and security while
she took most daring bounds from tree
to tree. Perhaps the dog surprised the
monkey on the open ground, and pressed
the mother so hard that she dropped her
offspring to save her own life. Or per-
haps they were enjoying picnic in fan
cied security, and had laid down their
little ones when the Zulu rushed upon
| them. While | was examining the limp
little body to see whether life was ex-
tinct, a pitiful wall told me that it's
mother was watching me. She had re-
tired to another tree some distance off,
and was wistfully gazing at me, wonder
ing what I was doing with her precious
babe. | saw that there was no hope. but
| retired and hid myself to see what she
would do. She came down at once and
approached cautiously, distressing me
and Jumping me in her mind, do doubt.
with the brutal black dog. Then she
stood upon stone, and standing erect,
looked all round, and gave plaintive
scream. Where was her darling? At
last she found it, and caught it up, and
pressed it to her bosom. But it could not
lay hold of her; it fell. Again and again
she raised it, and encouraged it to clasp
her in it's arms, as it had always done.
"She did not seem to understand it
was dead AT length she held it to her
bosom with one hand, and tried to run
on three, lest the black dog might re-
turn. When she got to a safe tree she
clambered up as best she could, Ehugging
her precious charge with one arm, and
there she gave way to her grief, and
cried piteously, while kite sailed grim
ly round the tree, as if claiming his own.
have oftened wondered what she did in
the end with the little lifelesS body;
cannot believe that she left it to the kite.
1t would not surprise me to know that
she buried it, or laid it in some hollow
and covered it with leaves and stones.

THE CIRCUIT COURT.
Much Interest Taken in the Pro-

remarkable energy After tho usual

&c Bell, of Lynchburg, VS.. Ross Persin-
ger, to recover the price Of an Osborne
reaper, was taken up. Defense alleged
that the machine was defective. Tho

discharged by Judge Blair as being un-
able to agree. The plaintiffs were rep.
resented by Col. R. II. Logan and the
defendant by j. S. Baer.
In the case OF C. B. Leet & Co. versus
Mrs. Nathaniel Wells, to recover the
price of lumber used IN the construction

fence, Judge Blair set the same aside
as being contrary to the law and owl
dence. Messrs. Pugh and Moffett ap-
peared for the plaintiffs, M. 6. McClung
for defendant. The above were the
only jury cases yesterday, but there
were large number OF chancery de-
crees entered and answers filed.
The case of Lizzie Foutz (by her next

scouting the case for the defense. De-

Clever Pigs.

DO newspapers always tell the truth?
If they do, then some animals have an
astonishing amount of intelligence.
The Worcester Gazette says that a
farmer has sow and four wcll-grown
pigs, which have the run of an orchard
where the branches of the trees hang
low, and are full of apples. The old
sow springs up and catches limb and
shakes it, and then she and the pigs de-
your the fruit thus shaken down. When
all that can be obtained in this way has
been eaten, one of the pigs climbs on
The mothers back and reaches a higher
limb, which it shakes vigorously, and
