He had ^ kept Some of these ants, however, alive tor months by giving them a slave fot an hoar a day to clean and teed them, People Coaid find in the different species of ante various con ditions of life curiously answering to the earlier stages of hiiman progress, namely, the hunting and the pastoral. and even the agricultural Borne species lived principally on the pro- I mP-a duce of the chase, and they probably detained the habits once common to all ants. They resembled the lower races of men, who subsist mainly by hunting. Like these, they live In com paratively small communities; they hunt mted singly, and their battles were single combats, like those of man In hte early history. Another species might be compared to the pastoral Stage of human progress. Their com munities were more numerous, and they acted more In concert, their bat tles were no mere single Wombats, but they knew how to act In combination. Sir John’s opinion was that they would gradually exterminate the hunting •pedes, Just as savages disappear be fore more advanced races. Lastly, the agricultural nations might be com pared with the harvesting ante, it generally stated that the queens Slone laid eggs. This, however, ap- peated not to be the case.
