INSTINCT Mr. Putnam, Of the Adams
Express Co some eighteen or twenty months
since brought to his residence on Floyd and
Main streets, two fine patridges These he
kept and fed attentively until last Spring-one
year ago-when they were taken to the coun-
try and set free about two miles from Middle
town and ten miles from the city. During the
intensely cold weather of the past winter,
these birds returned to the city and and sought
the residence Of their former kind protector.
One bleak wintry day, Mr.. Putnam was as.
tonished by a rspping at his window. and
found, upon investigation, the two patridges
seeking an entrance. He instantly recognised
them as his old friends by peculiar marks upon
their bodies. OF course, be could but take
them in and treatth kindly. They are now
ho6itue, of his grounds, " circulating" pro-
miscuousIy among the fowls and making them
selves at homo within and without doors. We
have never in the course of our reading met
with a more striking instance of the develop
ment of instinct. It appears indeed beyond
belief, that aoouple of patridges released from
a cage twelve miles from the place where they
were confined, should after lapse Of nearly
two years, return to their old home-driven
there by the pangs of hunger and cold.-Lo&-
