CURIOUS Work OF THE BEAVER. -
Some of the habits of the beaver are
very curious. In a paper on the habits
of the beaver read before the American
Association for the Advancement of
science, Dir. l.. III. Morgan, of Roches
ter, said that on the southern shore of
Lake Superior in Marquette county,
he found remains of long canals and
dams constructed for them for the pur-
pose OF Transporting their cuttings,
consisting of trunks of trees two or
three feet long, from the place where
the trees had fallen TO their lodges. =
Some of these canals were 300, 400 and
500 feet long. They were generally
three feet vide, with an average depth
of three feet. Ia order to maintain a
tcontinaous depth of water, they made
dams of certain distances, and followed
the Chinese plan-to whom the lock
was unknown-of drawing their cargo
from one level to another.

He survived the genial poet, Gen. GEo. P. Moan1s,
