Dwight and Dennic.

The following old anecdote is worth repeat
ing. Some years since, as Dr. Dwight was
travelling through New jersey, ne CHANGED to
stop at the stage hotel in one of its popular
towns for the night. At late hour Of the
same, arrived also at the inn, Mr. Dennie
who had the misfortune to learn from the
landlord that his beds We're all paired with
dodgers, except one occupied by the ceebrat-
ed DIR. Dwight. Show me to his apartment
exclaimed Dennie, although | am stranger
to the Dr., perhaps | may bargain with him
for my lodgings. The landlord accordingly
waited ON Mr.. Dennie to the doctors room
and there left him to introduce himself
The doctor, although in his night-gown,
cap and slippers, and just ready to resign
himself to the refreshing arms of somnus, po-
Htely requested the strange intruder to be
seated. Struck with the physiognomy Of his
companion, he then unbent his ausIere brow
and commenced a literary conversation. The
names OF Washington, Franklin, Rittenhousc
and n host Of distinguished literary charac-
ters, for some time gave Il zcst and an interest
to the conversation, until nr Dwight chanccd

Bisset the Animal Teacher.

Few individuals have presented so stri-
king an instance of patience and cccen-
tricitv as Bisset the extraordinary teacher of
animals. He was a native Of Perth, and an
industrious shoemaker, until the notion Of
teaching animals attracted his attention in
the year 1859 Reading an account Of
remarkable horse shown at st. Germain,
curiosity led him to experiment upon horse
and dog, which he bought in London, and
he succeeded III training them beyond all ex-
pectation. Two monkeys were the next
pupils he took III hand, one Of which he
taught to dance and tumble on the rope,
whilst the other held a candle IN one paw for
his companion, and with the other played
the barrel-0rgan. These animals he also in
structed to play some fanciful tricks such
as drinking to the company, riding and
tumbling on a horses back, and going
through several regular dances with a dog.
All this, it may be said. was very ri
diculous. No doubt it was; at the same
time, the results showed the power Of culture
in subduing natural propensities. Bisset'
teaching of cats was Il signal instance of this
power. Having procured three kittens, he
began their education with his usual patience
lie at length taught these miniature tigers to
strike their paws in such directions on the
dulcliner as 10 produce several regular times,
having music books before them, equaliing
at the same tiIae iii different KEYS or tones,
first, second, and third by way Of concert.
lie afterwards was induced to make public
exhibition of his animals, and the well
known Cats Opera, in which they performed,
was advertised in the Hay-lnartlct Theatre
The horse, the dog, the monkeys, and the
cats, went through their several parts with
uncommon applause 10 crowded houses: and
in a few days Bisset found himself possessed
OF nearly thousand pounds, to award his
ingenuity and perseverance,.
This success excited BiSsct's desire to eE-
tend his dominion over the animals. inclu-
ding even the feathcred kind He procured
young leyeret and reared il to beat several
marches on the drum with It's hind legs. un-
til 1T became good stout hare lie taught
canary-birds, linnets and sparrows, to spell

his services in manufacturing a legal instru-

property in the stolen notes. Mr.. De Wolf
managed the thing very well, got all the

The Horse--His Memory and sagacity.

An aged and venerable friend, residing in
one of the cities on our Eastern seaboard a
gentleman Of character and worth, once re-
lated to me the following anecdote Of the
horse, illustrating in q remarkable manner,
the sagacity Of this animal.
At the close of the revolutionary war, when
everything was unsettled and in disorder, an
acquaintance residing on the Boston road,
some so or 10 miles from New York, lost a
valuable Young horse, stolen from the stable
at night. Great search and inquiry were
made for him, but no tidings Of him could be
heard and no trace Of him could ever he dis
covered.
Almost six full years had row elapsed, and
the recollection even of the lost animal, had
nearly faded from the mind. AT this period
a gentleman from the east in the course OF
business, was travelling on horseback on this
road, on his way to Philadelphia. When
within four or five miles of a village on the
road. the traveller was overtaken by respect
able looking gentlemen on horseback, a resi-
dent Of the village, returning home from a
short business ride. Riding along side by
side, thev soon engaged in pleasant desultory
conversation. The gentleman was soon struck
with the appearance OF the traveller horse
And every glance Of the eye cast towards
him, seemed to excite an interest and curlos-
itv to look at him again, and to revive a re-
collection Of something he had seen before,
and soon established in his mind the impress
sion that for all the world he looked like the
horse he had lost some six years ago. This
soon became SO irresistibly fixed in his mind,
that he remarked to the traveller,
You have fine horse, sir
Yes, he replied, an exceedingly valuable
and excellent animal
Tt,,+ = Il as.,v
We'll, | suppose him to be about ten or
eleven years Old
You did not raise him then p
No, l purchased him of a stranger, a
traveller, nearly six years since.
Do YOU reside in this part Of the country
NO, / reside in the Bay State, and am on
nv way to Philadelphia, on business. How
far is it TO New York p
Well, sir, L really regret to interrupt you,
or put YOU TO inconvenience-bu am con-
strained TO say / believe you have in posses
sion q horse that | must claim
The traveller looked with surprise and
amazement, and replied,
What do you mean, sir !"
L believe the horse you are on, IN truth,
belongs to me. Five years ago, the past au-
tnlnn, valuable young horse was stolen from
nv stable Great search was made for him,
but no tidings Of him ever came to hand.
In color, appearance, and movements, 1t
seems to me he was the exact counterpart OF
the horse you are on. 1t would be hardly
possible, ] think, for two TO be so near alike.
But nv horse was an uncOmmonly Intelligent
sagacious animal. And | will make q prOpo-
sIton to you, that will place the matter in
such position, that the result will be conclu-
siye and satisfactory, think, to both Of us.
We are now within mile of my residence,
which is on the road, in the centre of the vii
