A Rckahkablk Fkoo.—On this sub
ject, Mr. Yager, living near Mitchell’s
Station, in Culpepper oounty, relates
some very curious facts about a re
markable frog. “Concerning this frog,”
says he, “it has lived many years with
us, and i« a great favorite, and toe
greatest curiosity is its beooming so re>
markably tame. It has frequented our
<k>or steps before oar bail doer, some
years before aw acquaintance oommene*

for years on aeoount of its else and od
or, and he visited it every evening, when
it would oome forth at hte summons and
by constant feeding brought it ha so
tame it would oome to ike oandlo and
look up as if expecting to be taken np
and brought to toe table and fed on in
sects of all sorts. On presenting Bring
insects, it fixes its eyea intently, and re
mains motionless for a while as if pre
paring for a strike, whioh is an Instan.

great distance, upon which the inseoc
sticks fast to toe tip by a glutenoas mat

I oan’t say how long my. father has
been acquainted with it; from my earli
est reoallection he spoke of it as "014
Tom," "the old frog." I have known
it for a great number of year*—l can
answer for fifty-seven yer.ra. It makes
its appearance (always a welcome visi
tor,) with warm weather, and remains
with us till fall, appearing morning and
evening to our peat amusement, haring
been trained to do many things, such as
leaping, turning summersaults, bolding
alternately by its feet aod hands to a

the word of command going through tha

good-natured, and never shows temper.

whose approach it will often leap four
feet from off toe floor, with toe utmost
precision, plump into the mouth of a
large etene water pitcher, and thus se

dogs, of which we have many about toe
premises. They seem to regard him as
one of the hoosehold aod a "privileged
character.” The Hon. Judge Tayl or,
