REBEL Loss AT PEA RIDGE.-The fact
that Major Clarke, rebel commander at Fort
Smith, issued on the 9Th ultimo an order
for General McCulIoch's funeral, commence
ing. "The brave General McCulloch is no
longer on earth. He fell while bravely
fighting at the head Of his divisions, in a
hardly-contested battle with the enemy near
Cross Hollows on the 9TH instant" is con-
elusive as to him. And a rebel letter
from Fort Smith, dated Tuesday, March ii,
says:
When it became known to the troops that
General McCuloch was killed. they were
frantic with rage, and his command fought
like demons, charging at times aud putting
to flight 1--WE times their number. General
Mcintosh fell at the head of bis command
early in the action; also, General Herber.
General Price received flesh wound in the
arm the first day of the fight Gen. Slack
of the Missouri, received mortal wound.
There were great many officers of lower
grades killed and wounded, and it will be
several days yet before an exact list of the
killed and wounded can be got at. Our
loss in round numbers is estimaFed at 1000
killed aud wounded Our train is now at
Slckers, on Boston Mountain. out of reach
oil the enemy and will be up soon.

THO Lnnguage OF Animals.

Professor Agassiz, In one of his interest
ing papers on Natural History, in the At
lantlc Monthly, remarks:
The voices of animals have family char
acter not to be mistaken. All the canid8
bark and howl; the fox, the wolf, the dog,
have the same kind of utterance, though on
o somewhat different pitch. All the bears
grOwl, from the white bear of the Arctic
SHOWS to the small black bear OF the Andes
All the cats midiI, from our quiet iresde
companion TO the lions and tigers and pam
theirs of the forest aud jungle.
This last may seem a strange assertion,
but to any one who has listenen critically
to their sounds and analyzed their voices,
the roar of the lion is but gigantic miau,
bearing about the same proportion to that
of cat as its stately and majestic form
does to the smaller, softer, more peaceful
aspect of the cat. Yet, notwithstanding
the difference in their size, who can look at
the lion, whether in his more sleepy mood
as he lies curled up in the corner of his
cage, or in his Gercer moments of hunger
or of rage, without being reminded Of the
cat? And this is not merely the resemb-
lance of one carniverous animal to anoth-
er, for no one was ever reminded of dog
or wolf by lion.
Again, all the horses and donkeys neigh;
for the bray of the donkey is only a harsh.
er neigh, pitched on different key, it is
true, but a sound of the same character
as the donkey himself is but a clumsy aud
dwarfish horse. All the COWS low, from the
buffalo roaming the prairie, the musk-ox of
the Arctic ice.fields, or the jack of Asia, to
the cattle feeding ia our pastures. Among
the birds this similarity of voice in families
is still more marked. We need only recall
the harsh and noisy parrots, SO similar in
their peculiar utterance.
Or take as an example the web footed
family-do not all the geese and the innu-
merable host of ducks quack? Does not
every member of the crow family cav,
whether 1t be the jaekdaw, the jay, the mag
pie, the rook in some green rookery or the
Old World, or the crow of our woods, with
its long, melancholy cav that seems to
make the silence and solitude deeper.
