Presently one of the ants came down to the water, and boldly pluiging ili, waited at the edge. Not long after, another ant, bearing a grain of sugar, fillowed, and when it reached te water, perched itself upon the first ait's back, and was ferried across to the opposite edge, holding its precious burden carefully out of the water all the while. It tlienl continued its jour ney while the ferryman swam back for another passenger. This feat was per forned a inumber of times in the pres ence of several witnesses. Ants are conceded to be the most intelligent anl sagacious of all insects. Whole volnmes have been written of their wonderful perftitamcel but. though they have figured i as soldiers, beasts of bturden, messengers, and in almost every other known capacity, we have never heard of their acting as ferry men before.
