THE Geese CAUGHT NAPPING.—On Wednesday last a
Solan Goose, was observed sitting on the brink of Cock-
mere river, with its head under its wing, and in that
dormant state was actually taken up by a man, whose no-
tice its snow-white plumage had attracted. On being
handled it awoke, and made a stout effort to escape ; but
being defeated in the attempt, and finding the liberty of
its wings restricted, it pined, and died. Another of these
emigrant wanderers was taken in a similar say, at Sea-
ford, and presentel to Lord Gage; but feeling, like its
ktni/ad bird, the loss of liberty, that too drooped, aid
died : shewints, that life in capacity, is abhJrrent to the
nature of those free-bred birds.—(Sesser Adv.)
