" I suppose you were in a sort of

"What are you going to. do with

" I don't know, I am sure," she
said with a sigh. " But you are safe

I don't expect you to believe me,

Concealing- him until;the,Aue and

throu!rh the gates in a woman's dress
and with a basket of soiled linen.
And so the mystery of Aymer Pres

The years.rolled on. Marion was
twenty-five. Her father was dead.
Her idolized brother had perished in
a brawl. She was alone in the world;
an invalid, living on -the merest pit

One day she was sent for to sec

received by a 'young lady, and-some
thing in the young girl's bright face
drew Marion's glance unconsciously.
Where had she . seen those eyes, so
larTe and so intensely black? -
Why do you look at me se'?"
asked ti; yonng girl , with naive cag

" You rt 4l roind me of some one I

"No one ever accused me of look

laughed the girl.

WONDHMIL THINGS ABOUT ANTS.
The. audience, which, following
Sol Onion's advice and Sir John Lub
boek's reputation, went to the-Royal
on January , 437th to consider the
ways-,otthe ant was ,vast, and they
heard much that would, perhaps,
[mire astonished Solomon, or the Per
sian sage Shallish4lerta,,Who told
man not to be. conceited about his
social superidrity, but to " observe
the sovereignty of the bee and of the
not in their kind." Sir John Lub-
Leek has been knOwnt‘be devoting
his - attention to ants for the laSt.
three years; has clever assist
ants in his - little daughter and her
goVerness,: who watch the proceed
ings in the ant-room (hiring the day,
and report progress if he has been
absent. Living on a farm adjoining
that of Charles Darwin he has the
benefit. of consultations with that
great (against whose high name some
forger recently aimed a blow in Car
lyle's name, which_ Carlyle has de : -
nounced). 3
Sir John's story NA night was
most- extraordinary, lie declared
that though the ape ranks next man
in form, the ant ranks 'next him in
intellect, and if , the ants should ever
be able ternake up by numbers for
their deficiency of size they might
be able to cope with man on no nne
(palterm.S. There are seven hun
dred kliown species of ants, of which
there are thirty in this, country, and
Sir John has based hisiesearches on
twenty species, which are now shar
en; of his hospitality. 'For a liberal ,
and a moraMnan, Sir John does not .
seini to obser e rigid principles with
three tiny ereatures; he sets some as
slaves to others, and on one occasion
gave an antttomPany of thirty so
much drink that they were reduced
to. hopeless intoxication. On this
last occasion'the sober ants pitched
five of the inebriates into the water,
and` ook twenty-five into the newt to
recover. But of a similar party of
" strangers " (namely, not belonging
to their nest), the sober ants piteWl
twenty-five into tde water, Cook five
into the nest, but presently brought
tour of these out and pitched them
into the water too.
The ants know their comrades af
ter long separation.
,Sir John sepa
rated one front his nest for a year.
then brought him back, and with
a " stranger " of the same species,
marking them with paint for recog
nition. The ants treated the stran
ger nefariously, but welcomed their
long-lost brother and wiped the paint
otf him. There is a little yellow ant
in England which regularly raises
poultry ; it stores' up through' winter
the eggs of sphides, which, ceing
hatched in the spring, give them a
good supply of provisions. The dif
ferentiation of labor among them
iemarkable; some being developed
into soldiers, others of the same nest
:is laborers, and others as C.0111M6" 4 :1-
zint agents. Sir John fowl that ,
two particular ants were invariable;
sent out to bring in rood placed at
the door, and when these were re
moved .by him, two iothers were ap
pointed who came jifst as invariably,
and so on so often as the special offi
cials were removed.
The ants keep a more various
stock of animals for their provisions
than Englishmen do ; and there are
two tiny creatures—an aphis and a
beetle—always found in their 'nests,
but never eaten or used, "apparently
their eat and dog. Slavery prevails,
and there is no anti-slavery society..
But Sir .John remarked the evil ef
fects of the system. The most de
termined slavelialer is called " Pol
yergus," a queer misnomer, since, the
bloated-creature doesn't work at all.
By employing slavds (which are Very
black) this big red ,ant has lost all
cleverness, all strength, and even his
mandibles; he is perhaps the. only
animal in nature that cannot• even
feed hiniself,•but will (lie amid plen

Manufacturers of the • liner grades
have not only reduCed production,
but have put forth an effort to extend
their business to forei , ru. countries.
As a consequence of these steps, and
alter judicious management, there
have been no large failures, and the
business is in a healthful condition. IL
is in Much better condition,:, indeed,
than during the years from 1`450 to

obliged to suspend.
TUE PAPER MAjiING TOWN
Holyoke, Massachusetts, is tht2
great centre of the manufacture Of
tine writing paper in America—the,
term " tine writing paper" including
what is commonly known as writim
paper, paper for blank d
, books an
envelopes, and the . better grades of
wrapping paper. The whole produc
tion daily in the, United States, when
the milk are running on full time, is
ninety-five tons or a little less, of
which nearly forty tons ar6 made in-,
liolyoke and South padely
'on the opposite hank of the Connecti
cut River ; sixty-five tons a day are
made within tiro or three hours' ride
of Holyoke, and seventy-nine tonsin
Western Massachusetts.
The fathers made paper in this re
gion fifty - years before 'the Revolu
tion. In the first half of the present
century there were mills in various

one at Sutlield Conneticut, and tely

the, river. Vroin his experiment has
grown up the vast industry here.

why the manufacture of paper should'
have engaged the attention of Holy

that it originally got into 'strong

SE . EKINU A FOREPIN MARKET
A vigorous and systematic etrort
is making., to create a market for
American papers and paper-making
machinery; in foreign countries, - and
there are already illeouragincr si gns
of success. A comhinatiOn of mann-.
factures representing about tifty,tons
a day have agreed. to sell to Wool-
Worth & Graham of New York,
- for
export, two or three days' production
each year at about a third less than
the regular price,. and this firm is to
have the, whole management of the
whole scheme, pay all the expenses
and incur all losses. Woolworth &
Graham, accordingly, have sent
agents to k t urupev the '\Vest Indies
and South America, and are in vari
ous other ways pushing 'the enter-
Prise: The agreeinent ipto which
these manufacturers have entered
leaves them as free as ever to export
on their own accamt, and probably
hrs not interfered with
effort in the leasti
. but the terms on'
schieh they sell Woolwo#ll
Graham involve a loss to the makers,
the expectation being,_of course, that
tha success of the experiment will
justify a small temporary sacrifice. •
TILE GROWTH OF FOREIGN TRADE.
The effect has already alarmed for
eign manufacturers .sqmewhat; and
piqued the euriosity - ot foreign pur
chaser's to see trhat - thel. fr ankees are
doing and can do. The British mak
ers are already miffing an Qutery
.against it, and are considering what
they will do about it. The agitation
of the subject is attested by thelarge
and increasing number of letters
froui 'other- countries Making inqui•
ries about our paper, our terms and
our methods or mantedeture. The
Centennial Exhibition, UM, stimu
lated competition and demonstrated
the et that fine paper can be made
here and sold at low prices. The
leading. manufacturers insist
'their paper is superior to the most
famous European kinds,..and several
of the large concerns arc distributing
samples all over Europe,' the 13/rest
Indies and South America - to 'Con
vince consiimers,of the fact. Single
sheets of the Holyoke Paper Compa
.ny's parchment letter paper," for
example, are sent in great numbers
to foreign lands. ••,o
The export scheme wilt perhaps
be considered successful, even if it
;falls short of estanlishing a large . for
'eigti market for our goods, it it puts
an end to the importation or. paper.
This it is faseAccomplishing.. For
eign paper has lost its reputation . in'
the market, and Atherican paper is.
now generally preferred. The whims
of purchasers, however, are still hu
mored with "French" and "English"
paper, a considerable amount of
'which is made in Holyoke: It is too
soon to see the eireets of the work in
',charge of Woolworth hGraham as
distinct from th r e_,general growth of
exports over imports, far it was.. or
ganized oniy last fall, but the Statis
ties of our foreign commerce will
show Which way, and how stroirdy,
the current sets. Importation had

imports amounted to $5f;,553, and in
1573 to $ . 14;3,2'2,. There was a favor

it will be seen that our exports last

ports Were only $5,994 ; and this
branch of business. shows a mush
larger proportional gain of exports
over imports than our kfieirrif trade
viewed as 'a whole..-. These figures
cannot be taken, as perfectly accurate
for the purpo,e, of comparison, how
eVe.r, as the reports of the Bureau of

'They are nearly enough correct, how
