It ha two tubes alongside of each other, like the two barrels of a double-barrelled gun. At the tip of the tonne these tubes are a little separated, and their end are haped like spoons. The honey is spooned; as we may say, and then it is drawn into the mouth thro' the long tubes of the tongue. But the bird nses its tongue in another way. It catches inseet with it, for it live on these a well as on honey. It doe it in this way the two spoon grasp the insect like a pair of tongs, and the tongue, bending, put it into the birds mouth. The tongue, then, of the humming-bird is not merely one instrument, but it contains several instruments togeth er two pumps, two spoons, and a pair of tongs. lhe tongue ot a cat is a singular in strument. It is her curry-comb, ror this purpose it is rough, as you will find it you teel it. When she cleans herself so industriously, she gets iljff the dirt,' aad smooths her coat just as the ostler cleans and smooths the horse's coat with the curry comb. Her head she cannot get at with her tongue, and so she has to make her fore paws answer the purpose instead. There is one bird that lives chiefly on oysters. It has a bill, therefore, with which it opens an oyster as skilfully as an oysterman can witji his oyster-knife. Some birds can sew very well with their bills and feet. There is one bird that sews so welt it is called the tailor bird. It is hid in leaves which it sews together. It does this with a thread which it makes itself.

The complicity of the East India Com pany and the British government with idolatry in India is well known. Notwith standing his turning up the whites of his eyes in so saintly a fashion at the mere thought of the sins of other nations, John Bull would have some cause for trouble of conscience on his own behalf, could he only get deep enough into bis plethoric bosom to fiud that neglected faculty. Not content with manufacturing idols for the poor Pagans to worship, aud endowing their temples to make their religion sit easier upon them, he has begun to run special railroad trains on the Sabbath, to carry Hindoos to their heathen festivals. We greatly fear that Mr. Bull's piety does not lie quite so near his heart as his purse. Christian excursion trains -to Hindoo fes tivals no doubt pay well. It is gratifying to see that this profanation has beer, re buked even by a Hindoo. Such a rebuke from a heathen is a severe one. The edi tor of the Hiring $un, an intelligent Hin doo, advertiug to the Sunday train, says: " We believe that the Christian religion hallows the ISuubatli with a great degree. of sac red 1 1 ess, inasmuch as the whole, of that day is devoted to the worship of our Maker, while there is a total cessation from servile work.

Children All Incident. Jeeiis said, " Buffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom of heaven.?' This was intended as a reproof to the disciples for their indifference or increduality re specting the religious interests of children, and as an encouragement to parents to bring their precions offspring to Christ to receive his blessing. A child is a ration), immortal intelligence, endowed with a moiial nature which is susceptible of di- reel Divine impression from the earliest dawn of its existence, and hence, ;.t may be at any time really and truly bltssed.
