An Army of Ants.
Iu Chaillu has the following remarkable account in one of his lectures recently delivered in New York:
In these equatorial forests there are found vast numbers of ants, some of which arc so terrible to 111:111 and even to the beasts of the woods, from their fierce temper aud voracity, that their path is freely abandoned to them. The most remarkable and dreaded of all is the black Bashikonay. These black Basliikonay may well be called the lords of the forest. It is the most voracious creature I ever tu»t. It is the dread of .til living animals, from the leopard to the smallest insects. Tt is their habit to unrch through the forests iu a long, regular line, a line two miles broad and often several miles in length all along this line are large ants, which act as officers—stand outside the ranks and keep this singular army in order. If they come to place where there arc 110 trees to shelter them from the sun, whose heat they can not

We suggest that a meeting be held at the Court House on next Saturday night aud arrangements made for ail old fashioned celebration, iu which all of our citizens can join.

The Impi'acluni'iil Fizzle
On Monday, June, 3, the impeachment investigation (so-called) was brought to a summary conclusion. It was commenced in January last in pursuance of charges made by Ashley of Ohio, in the Rump House. While the committee has bceen session, holding its star-chamber mcetiug, nearly 2,000 pages of printed evidence have beeu takcu, aud] after piling up this mountain of rubbish, we have at last to record the total failure of the committee to make out a ease. The question was submitted:—"Does the evidence warrant the committc in reporting articles of impediment?" Boutwell,Thomas. Lawrence and Williams, voted in the affirmative Wilson, (chairman,) Woodbridge, Churchill, Eldridgc, and Marshal iu the negative. .So the committee decided not to report in favor of impeachment. A resolution of censure was presented and adopted, Eldridge and Marshal (Democrats) dissenting, to the effect that the evidence presented concerning the official aud other acts of President Johnson demonstrated—what?—that"Ae
ground tunnel, through which the whole army pass in colums to the forest beyond. When they grow hungry, as by a sudden command, the long file spreads itself through the forest, advancing forward, attacking and devouring all living things with a fury that is quite irresistible. The clc-phant and the gorrilla fly before them the black men run away every animal, that lives in their line of march is eha.-ed. In an incredibly short sjacc of time those that are caught are overwhelmed, killed, eaten and only the bare skeleton remains. They seem to travel day and night.
Many a time have 1 beeu awakened out of a sleep and obliged to rush into the water to save myself from them. When they enter a house they clear it of every living thing. Cockroaches arc devoured in an instant rats and mice spring around the room iu vain.- They will not touch vegatable matter thus they are very useful, clearing the country of many insects. When on their march the insect world flies before them, and I have often had the approach of a Bashikonay army heralded to nie by this means. Wherever they go they make a clean sweep, even ascending to the top of the trees in pursuit of their prey. Their manner of attack is au impetuous leap, instantly the strong pincers arc fastened, and they only let go when the piece gives way. At such a time this little insect seems animated by a kind of fury which makes it en-, tirely disregard its owu safety. The negroes relate that criminals, by which they generally mean wizards, have sometimes been exposed on the path of the Bashikonay ants, tied to a tree, so that they might not escape, and then were devoured to the bones. They are larger than any ant we have in America. The number of one of their armies is so great that one does not like to enter into calculation, but I have seeiT a continuous line passing at a good speed a particular place for twelve hours.
A cokkesI'O.niie.nt writes as follows iu regard tj the religious views of Charles 1'. Browne, better know as Artemus Ward:"
While speaking of Artemus, I may mention something not hitherto noticed by the press. Shortly before his death he expressed a wish to 9ee a priest. A Catholic clcgyman was called in, and before Artemus died he was received into and had received all the rites of the Catholic church. This comes to me on authority that I consider too good to be questioned.

Jorlis dlseonrsi'th or the Circus.
IV It 111Iv l'OMEll* 1
Every one has bcc*to the circus.*®® But ever}' one don't go the circus now. The circus isn't the proper place to go —for some people.
Its an immoral institution, they say. But how do you know? If a female attache of the circus walks a wire 011 the "outside of a pavillion," hundreds of people go to see her. You will find in the crowd heaps of "moral" people—old and young, large and small, young ladies and matrons, members of churches, attendants at Sunday school, teachers of the Bible classes and what not, all anxious—none abashed.
They go boldly—watch closely, especially the masculines, and leave eouteutedly They never patronize the circus.
Of course not. An institution of that description never gets a cent from them.
They never fail to go and see the wire walking outside the tent, but they never see that inside.
A lady walking a wiro to the top of the tent-pole isn't immoral, but a lady dancing 011 a wire inside is shockingly vulgar.
The first don't cost anything to see, the latter requires half a dollar. People sometimes manage to get inside a circus by mistake. They are misled into the belief that it is a menagerie. Then it's wonderful to watch their astonishment when the error is discovered. But they dout't leave they have paid their money and intend to have the benefit of it.
Circuses were never invented for these people. 4 But they seem to take more interest in
They pitch into it—go into it—denounce it, and—like it. It's the particular pride of some people that they neyer yet contributed oue cent to a circus nor anything like it.
It is jolly fun to watch those people on
country folks. Go to the grounds eaily. Rush to get a sight at the band 'procession.
Post themselves directly undor the wire on which the lady will walk. Mouth open—eyes stretched to the utmost.
Then, when a man makes his appearance, instead of a lady, and 'mounts the wire, to watch these sweet specimens of morality aud consistency, draw their hats over their eyes, and—leave the grounds ill thorough disgust.
Then there are some people, mostly ladies, who are too modest to be seen about the circus grounds.
But they don't miss the outside show. They make it convenient to call in at the neighbors who live near the circus, and post themselves iu the windows, where they cau see everything.
But they wouldn't jo to the circus. And if a young gcutlemau invites one of these damsels to go, he may consider himself played out in that family for all future time.
They know they'd like to go so much, but what would people say. This may be culled human nature, but we don't believe it.
It's hypocrisy. And therefore contemptible. Wc don't like such peo-de and never shall.

Henry Clay and Abraham Lincoln. Our coteinporary of the Chicago Times is evidently wanting.in admiration for the "late lamented"
Lincoln.
It draws the
following comparison between him and Henry Oi.ay. the provocation being the erection of a statue to the latter at Louisville. It say-i: "But it seems there is a reason why the name of the citizen Henry Clay—who as loyal men »ro informed, is now dead— will continue to find a place in history for some generations. This reason is that 'his frontier origin gave him, in the age he lived in, a prominence which otherwise lie might never have attained!' Unlike the martyr A. Lincoln, whose brighter glory has dimmed the luster of all proceeding luminaries, it seems that the citizen Henry Clay had a 'frontier origin,' which rendered him a marked personage in the society of polished statesmen of the age lie lived in. His mind was not formed in that perfect mold which gave to the mind of Lincoln such wondrous foim and comeliness. It lacked the original quality which ignores the science of grammar and repudiates the rules of syntax. He had given more study to the rugged facts of political economy than to the polished cadences of "Don Juan.' He was unaccustomed to express his thoughts in rhoturical figures of such ornate beauty as that which would describe Federal gunboats as Uncle Sam's webbed feet, lie lacked that refined delicacy of feeling which would demand the sing of a uegro song, surrounded by the dead au 1 the dying on a field of battle. He was probably deficient iu the polite art of entertaining courtly embassadors aud enlivening diplomatic #-.ranee* by telling smutty stories. His manners lacked the high polish which is given by slovenly personal habits, a shambling gait and a practice of picking the teeth with the fingers. He was deficient in the courtly grace which lends a charm to ceremonial occasions by poising the hu man body on two chairs with the heels elevated ou the back of a third, lie did not refuse, in addressing ladies, to precede his signature with 'yours, affectionately,' and lie could not aflir.n that his heart was buried in a young woman's grave 'six miles north, bearing a little west, of New Salem."
