HEARING OF AyIMALs-Among mammalia,
the formation of the ear varies in many csses
according to the habits and peculiar nature Of
the animal. The portion Of the ear of the rnols
assigned for the cogniiance Of sounds passing
In the air, is less perfect than those which.
deeper seated. receive the impression of any
sound of vibration from the earth. The bea-
ver has the power, when diving. 10 fold It's
ears backward on its head; and the water

faps, which close the orifce, In the same
manner that many diving and bur-cwius.
animals are furnished with dsps to the nnse,
by which they close the entrance to all iniu.
nous bodies The hippopotamus remains Tor
heightened periods beneath the surflce ofths
water, and is provided with valyelike appa-
ratus. Hares and rabbits, which squat close
on the ground, and which might be more read

their bodies to be visible fold their ears A a.
backward. In all, this sense is remarkably
keen, aud with horses il is only exceeded by
that OF the smell; they hear sounds and are rest
less long before the rider can perceive an
animal or q human being In the distance
The carrier-horses in Switzerland hear the fall
of an avalanche, and warn their masters Of
the danger by their terror, and by refusing
to advance, and even by turning in an opposite
direction. The acute sensibility of this organ
Is somewhat obstructed by the bushy hairs
which grow in the outer sheath; and thus horse
dealers cut them cut from horses taey have
for sale, in order that sounds, striking on tho
nerves with greater force, may, by excitia;
the animals give them more lively apPeu-
ance The flight Of the bat, like that Of Ia,

ASEcporE OF JoHS ADANs.-John Adams

though the breed has most signally increased
within the last half century
Lyon atnrmcd, with an oath that he hated

Lyon, who was a stalwart man, Of unusual
irrasclble temperament was rather taken
aback by the cool and determined manner Of
the President, and at first hesitatol 20 pro-
ceed but at length, summoBing all his native
recklessness to his aid, he drew himself into
a hostile attitude and rudely vociferatea--

tains of California are frequentei by spe-
cies of condor, which. although somewhat in
ferior in size 10 the condor Of the Andes, is

Of thirteen feet from tip to tip of its wings,
and when in its favorite elem mt, the air,
is as graceful and majestic as any bird in
the world. They make their home upon che
lodges Of lofty rocks, or in the old deserted
nests Of hawks and eagles, upon tho upper
branches of lofty trees. Thrir eggs are ach
about twelve ounces in weight, aud are said
to be excellent eating. The barrels Of the
