With regard to the source of honey, these ants are not known to feast on ! flowers, like bees and some of our home ants, nor could any trace be found ofthe aphis, or ant-cow, which many of our ants milk for its honey, The honey-gatherer is difficult to OBJ serve. II is a nocturnal ant. keeping out of sight of the sun during the dav and only venturing forth at nightfall in search of food. DIR. NcCook observed them; in the summer twilight, marching outward from the nest in long columns and pursuing night after night the same paths. He watched them for a consider able time before hc succeeded i'm finding the goal OF these nightly expeditions. At length discovering some ants on Il species of scrub oak, which grew abund- antly at the foot OF the ridge, he observ- ed that they showed a marked prefer ence for certain small oak-galls which were ranged along the sides of the cliffs. The next thing to be done was to ex- anime these gals. We are accustomed to associate gals with the idea of Bit terness only, yet they proved to be the true honey -yielders. On the round, green masses minute drops of sweet juice were found; this the ants eagerly licked up. passing from gall to gall until laden, or returning TO the original gall at later hour when fresh sweetness had exuded from it. The gall-nut, it is well known, is an excrescence upon the leaves of a species of oak; it is produced by the puncture OF a small hymenopterous insect for the purpose of deposting its eggs. A min ute grub lies in the centre of the soft mass which composes the gall, Wheth- er the sweet Juice came from this grub, or from the sap of the tree, was not readily to be discovered, though it was most likely an exudation of the sap. All night the busy gatherers of sweets were occupied in collecting honey from the gals. Toward morning they were seen in great numbers returning to the nest, their bodies swollen with the nights harvest of honey, which, as we have said, is given to the living honey combs within, being

But haste makes waste and the story sweet, reasoned, will keep through the sowing, Till drop the corn and plant the wheat, And give them chance for growing. Had even told the tale in June, When the wind through the grass was blowing Instead of thinking it rather too soon. And waiting till after the moving! Or had limited. out under the stars, That knew a story worth hearing Lingering to put up the pasture bars, Nor waited to do the shearing!

A MAN PLAYED ALIvE.-HoYri5le Afro. cHy!-A statement was copied into the newspapers some time ago, that a man be- longing 10 a party bound for California, ha7ing declared that he would shoot the hrSt Indian that he met, deliberately shota squaw, and being taken by party of Indi. ans' was skinned alive. The report was subsequently, contradicted. Notwithstanding this, the Bangor Msr- cury says, that letter has been received from one of the party to which the man belonged, which was a company bound to California overland, giving the details of hIs crime and it's punishment in the manner stated. Soon after this cold-bIooded mur- der ot the squaw, the party, about twenty m number, was surrounded by three hun dred Indians, and threatened with instant death unless they disclosed the perpetrator of the atrocious deed. After consulting to- gether, they determined to point out the murderer, who was at once seized by the indians, bound to a stake, and his skin peeled from him even to his toes. The operation lasted two hours. and the victim survived two hours after it. The company, among whom was his brother, were com PeIied to form ring around the stake and witness the terrible torment of the wretch ed man. Four or five of the party. and among them the one who called down upon nEmseli such terrible punishment, went rom Troy, Tn the State of Maine.

Every farmer, gardener, dairynan' and stock raiser should read with care the fol- lowing strong testimony from one of the best agricultural journals IN the Jnited States of the great value of cotton seed meal for feed 1t is the universal experience of all who use cotton seed meal, that 1t is by far the best and cheapest feed known: 1t is half cheaper than corn or corn meal: Cotton seed cake meal, now to be found IN our markets, is the residue left after pressing the oil from the cotton seed ground for feed The cotton seed, as it comes from the gins, IS covered with a hull or she'll which IN the upland variety is clothed with short down of cotton fibre. The seed makes more and better oil, and better feed if it is deprived of this hull; nevertheless, there Is, or has been, considerable seed pressed which has not been thus decOrtica. ted There are several patented processes for this hulling or decOrtication- After pressing, the cake Is ground for feed, as we find, and sold at considerably lower prices than taose of hnseed cake aud neal Its actual value for feeding purposes Is consid. eSable higher. Prof 5, w. johnson, in a report made to the, Connecticut State Agr5- cultural Society, 1857, says "Cotton seed cake Is much richer in oil and albuminOus matters than the linseed cake. Three pounds of the cotton seed cake are equiva- lent to four of the Hnseed cake of average quality. The value of the article as a manure is obviously very considerable The dung of the cattle fed upon it viii be greatly richer, both in nitrogen and phos- pilates, than shat of animals fed on hay alone. Where stock is kept probably the best manner of asipg this as q fertilizer Is to iced it to the cattle, and carefully apply the manure they furnish. In this way, what ever is not economical as fat or flesh will be available as manure" We have tested IN the manger, the sound ness of these views from the labratorY and have no doubt of their correctness. q We OYeTeame a prejudice IN using the meal fo

1t is novel Office which the President has taken upon himself, that of the cen so1ship of politics. Indifferent hitherto to the course of the tide, so it but bore him along on its breast, he suddenly steps forth to direct it altogether. The waif is ambitious to be creator. He has found no time, in the srduOus line of duties Sc lected for the summer, to say syllable on Cuba, Canada, or the Alabama claims; our fishermen are gobbled up under our very noses without a word from his magisterial lips; but when an independent movement betrays itself in the party ranks, as lately in Missouri, he is prompt with official directions and menaces, and assumes to run the party wholly by him self. 1t is the same in New York, where he has descended from his public position to NEEDLE personally in the politics of the State Murphy was his appointment, and the action of the Saratoga Convention was his inspiration. Cheating and open purchase are the standing accusations against that immaculate body, whose journals are noisily charging all the crimes in the decalogue against the united and enthusiastic Democracy. His interference with the politics of Missouri is the most offensiF e act yet perpetrated by an American President upon the intelligence of independent citi- zens. He writes to a subordinate officer there, prescribing the formula which the party is to follow. Nobody is to be rec ognized as a Republican who supports the SchurZ and Brown movement. All hold ers of Office are to wear collars bearing none but the words of his craving. On internal questions no difference of opin- ion is to be tolerated. 1t matters not to him that he is with the minority of his party in the State. 1t is sufficient that he has finally shaped his personal will in the premises. He has spoken and that shall be enough, This new manifestation of interest betrays only the awakening desire of running a second time for the Presi- dency. His interference in Virginia pol itics is included in the act of meddling w

when Mr.. BUTLER got the floor, and the Sen ate adjourned. The House Of Representatives. were occupied with the consideration of the report of the select committee appointed to investigate the connex- ion and relation Of the Secretary Of War to the claim of the representatives of George Galphin. 'NEw MExIoo.-Already New Mexico is pre- pared with a constitution and demand for admis- sion into the Union. We are by means insen- sible to the grave objections to this measure. The unftness of the mixed population of New Mexico to enjoy the full privileges of American citizenship is very evident. The smallness of the population is also an objection, and the general ignorance of our institutions is still greater objection. Yet the prompt admission of New Mexico is the only remedy that we can to the greater evil of the present condition of things. We do not see how, in any other manner the question that agitates the country, and mpedes the public business is TO be settled, even temporarily; any other permanent settlement is quite impossible, for the same ques ton would come up again when the territory should present itself with constitution for admis sion into the Union" Providence Journal. The journal has placed in its true light the real point of choice in the issue, presented by the aDpliCdliOH VI NEW NItNiCO W Nolllt Hlo the Union as State. IL the question stood in the form of an Independent proposition, it would be very different question from what it is now, with all its connexions and affiliations, blending it 50 intimately with the troublesome subject of slavery. The admission of New Mexico as State promises to settle that sub ect of agitation, and promises to do 1t at a time when the North cannot do it, when the South cannot do it, when the North and the South together cannot do it. Would it be desirable. indeed, that the North or the South should pre- dominate in this struggle, and either section gain a triumph over the otlerl Would SET Element be accomplished by s
