It has frequented our <k>or steps before oar bail doer, some years before aw acquaintance oommene* ed with it. My father bad admired H. 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. taneuue throwing of its tongete to a great distance, upon which the inseoc sticks fast to toe tip by a glutenoas mat ter. 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 a _.jj - nn . awiiywina ftn J •tttHivltnrv a Amy the manner of aslack rope performer, marching erect on its hind legs, and at the word of command going through tha manual exerciee. It seems perfectly good-natured, and never shows temper. ut is dreadfully afraid of a eat, m 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 cure a safe retreat. Yet he is no wise alarmed to disturbed by the presence of 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.
