SINGULAR PASSION OF A DoG.-A late

the shire of Edinburgh: having saved sew
eral persons from drowning, he was greatly
ilattered and carcssed therefor. This turn

er he sees child on the bank of the river
he patiently waits good opportunity, then
suddenly places his fore paws on its person
and plunges it into the stream--all for the

dog has never sacrificed single life by his
dangerous sport.

THE DOG.

A DOG SToRY.-A gentleman of the
name of Laili, residing in Rockingham
county, New Hampshire, few years ago,
possessed dog that was remarkable for his
sagacity. He one day told the dog to 60
and find handkerchief which his child had
lost in distant field while picking berries.
The dog started off with his usual alacrity,
but in the course of an hour or two returned
without the handkerchief, looking as crest
fallen as though he had been caught in a
neighbours sheepfold. The master cufled
his ears sharply, and told him to go and try
again, and not come back until he found it.
The dog started off again with apparent re-
luctance, while the master followed at a
distance behind, and unperceived. The
dog went towards the field where the child
had picked the berries, and sat down on his
haunches--held down his head-and APP
peared to be in a deep brown study.
He sat in this attitude for perhaps half an
hour, when he suddenly jumped up with a
peculiar yell of eXultation, and started off
for one corner Of the field. Here he stop
ped for moment, and then commenced
trotting round the field, going about three
feet from the fence the first time, about six
the second, and thus continuing to near the
middle at each succeeding circle. He
went round the field about twenty times,
when he jumped up into the air with loud
yell of triumph, picked up the handkerchief,
and started for home.
The veracity of this narrative may be re-
lied upon. We received it from Mr.. r,
Baptist clergyman of great Irespectability.
Now, did the dog reason automatically !
does this go to add proof that instinct is but
another name for reason ?-Edmiiy Visitor.
Curious ANEcDoTE OF DoG.-The
following anecdote was told us by an eve

literal truth. A gentleman going to his of
