Singular Case of Instinct in a Horse.

! We do not remember ever to have heard
OF more remarkable exhibition of equine
Intelligence than was communicated TO us
few days since, by Mr. Allen, of this
place. The circumstances, as they were
related to US, were AS follows:
Mr.. A. has had for considerable time,
aa-span of sprightly little horses, that he
has never separated. In the stable, in the
field, In the harness, they have always
been together. This has caused strong
attachment to grow IN between them. A
few days ago he wen. with them out to
Lake Minnetonka, on fishing excrreion
Taking them out of the carriage. he led
them down TO the lake, and tied tlem with
stoat ropes, several rods apart, on a strip
OF grass that grew upon the shore, and left
them to feed. Returning to the shanty.
he threw himself upon the floor to await
the return of the party who had repaired
to the lake to fish. Not much time had
elaps ed before the sound of an approach
ing horse 3 ioet attracted his attention, and
a moment alter one of his span appeared at
the door. The ANNA! put his head in, and
giving one neigh, turned, and at slow
gallop, yet under evident excitement, re.
turned to the spot where but a few min
utes before, he and his companion had
ptSh ldStShcu. surprised TO tlnu his
horse loose, and struck with his singular
conduct. Mr.. y. Immediately followed
and found the other lying in the water,
esntane!ed in the rope, and struggling to
keep his head from being submerged.
While Mr.. A. proceeded to disengape
the unfortunate horse, his noble benefac-
tor stood by, manfesting the utmost
soIlcltude and sympathy, and when his
mate was extricated from its perilous posi-
ton, and again upon its feet, the gener
Gus creature e. hitited the most unqucs
tlonable signs Of satisfaction and Joy.
That this intelligent animal should have
noticed the misfortune Of his mate, that he
should know where to apply for rescue.
and in his efforts should sunder three
iourths of an inch rope-and finally that
he should exhibit so high an appreciation
OF the event, are circumstances to astonish
US, and commend themselves to the thought F,

The Michigan Murder.

| The most remarkable cases in the crimina

Central New York, bore good character,
and has young wife. He put in $4,000
into the firm In September, 1869. Field
wished tc withdraw his funds and dissolve
partnership. which was finally agreed to,
IN spite of Eanderpools reluctance. On
Saturday night, they went into the bank
together and II days sitter Fields body was

Manis,ee, having been towed away by an
under current. The theory is that Van

by the first he was found guilty, but the
feeling against him was so strong that it
was thought no more than fair to grant
him new trial in different part of the
