A TOAD'S INTELLIGENCE.
I was one day digging up a tree with
Professor Bard wall in order to '.raat.
plant it, siys Ttiomas Hill, D. D., in a
paper read in an Eastern eity. Two or
three other professors stood looking on,
and 1 called their attention to an old
toad near by and advised tbem to watch
hiui. '1 hey laughed, but on my ques.
tioning them confessed that they had
never seen a toad eat. I throw biin
some small eatbworms as we them up
with the spade. The professors were as
delijj'.ted as children to sao the dexterity
with which he snapped them up. Prea.
eutly 1 turned up with one spadeful of
earth an einoruious earthworm, / threw
it to the toad, and observed in him the
most decided evidence of reasoningpow.
j ei nud executive ability that I ever saw
jn mi animal. At first he watehel it as
i toad always wilt m the case of a large
i worm, the swß ends alternately, in or
j dor to see wiiieh was the head. The
worm is rough ouo way and smooth the
I other, therefore his head csu be put
down the toad's throat easier than the
tail end, and can not be pulled out lialf
so easily.
\\ hen ui; toad had decided whieh
: was the head he transferred it oy one
flap of bis to his etomaeh, and instantly
nipped his jaws tight together. Ihe
maj >r part of the worm beioif in the air,
writhed ab.mt and twisted itself around
the toad's head ; the toad waited until
the coil was loosed, and then gulped
down half an inch more of the worm,
and took a fresh nip with bis jawi. Bat
there nero many half inches in this e.
iiormously long worm, and when tho
toad had succeeded by successive gulps
in getting down more than half its whole
length into his stomach, his jaws began
10 grow tired, and he could not prevcut
the worm from working his way partly
out again betwccu the gulps. Presently
the worm wis working out much faster I"
than the toad could swallow.
My sympathies woro with the toad ;
partly because he was higher in tho
Bcale of bfting, but chiefly because 1
had pitted toads and felt as though my
houor was at stake. I was beginning
to foar lest I should have the mortifioa
iion of seeing the worm escape. But I
did injustice to ths toad ; his geniM
roue to the ocetsloo. lie brought bit
rigat hind foot up against his abdsiaen,
grasped through the walla of bit abdo
men, his stomach and tho worm within
it, and at each successive gulp took a
fresh grasp with his foot, tbua holding
tho worm from coming out, and coin
succeeded 111 swallowing jke whale.
