How MONKEYS ARE CAPTURED. - MOa. keys are pretty common, yet ss all the fam lilies are remarkably cunning, has 1t ever occurred to the reader how they are taken? Pitfalls will take . lion, and the famiShed monarch will, after g few days' starvation, dart into cage containing food, and thus be secured. But how are monkeys caughtP The ape family resembles man. Their vi- ces are human. They love liquor, and fall.
 In Darfour- and Sennasr, the. natives make a fermented beer, of which the mon- keys are passionately fond. Aware of this,
 the natives go to the parts of the forest frequented by the monkeys, and set on'the ground cslabashes full of the enticing liquor. As soon as the monkey sees.it and tastes it, he utters loud cries of joy that soon attract his comrades. Then an orgie begins, and then in short time they show all degrees of intoxication. Then the ne- grOes appear The few who came too late to get fuddled escape.s The drinkers are too far gone to distrnst them, but apparent Iy take them for larger species of their own genus. The negroes take some up. end these begin to weep and cover them with maudiin kisses. When negro takes one by the hand to lead him of. the nearest monkey will cling to the one who thna finds a support, and endeavor to go of also. Another will grasp at him, and so ons until the negro leads a staggering line of ten or a dozen tipsyr .monkeya. When. finally brought to the village, they are securely caged and gradually sobefed down 6ut for two or three days a gradually illuminating supply of liquor is given thems SO as.t0, re. concile- them by degrees to their state of captivity. a4f 70 2fiIa6sAA SA Ea

as if you found yourself suddenly endowed
 with wings, and emulating the feats of a tumbler-pigeon in mid-air. You become a clumsy float, top-heavy buoy, or swollen cork, the instant you are in it's waters, and arms, legs. and body are apparently endowed with the s.rangest qualities It is as if heavy weights were affixed to each directly you attempt to move, and experienced swimmers fail in their best strokes, by reason of the unnatural buoyancy with which they have to contend. Your limbs are on the surface, and you cleave the air with your hands, the moment you try to swim. and the man who would be drowned as soon as he was out of his depth in any other sheet of water in the world, is one of the best fitted for bathing in the Dead Sea. He cannot sink in it, let him do what he will. It is as if he were encased in life-belts, or sprawling on feather bed. If he lean back and throw his feet up, it is exactly as if he were resting in a peculiarly well.stnffed easy chair, with a leg-rest to match. He may fold his arms. turn on one side, lie flat upon his stomach or back, clasp his knees with both hands, or draw his head and toes together, in the same shape the human body would assume if crammed hastily into jar with its extrem- ltleG l0I6 out, 8uO ull WAGn uU uoI0 pooS1. bility of sinking than if he was in so much soft sand. Woe to him if he be tempted by these unusual facilities to stay long in the water with his head uncovered! The bare and rocky walls of the low-lying cal. dron which holds the Sea of Death reflect back the burning sun and concentrated its rays; and Q coup de s0tiet will be the all but inevitable consequence of his imprudence. Two of our party entered the water, and re- maiued in it some seconds before they re- covered their heads. and the result was SC were shooting pains, sickness, and dizzi- ness. which lasted until their immersion, an hour later, in the refreshing waters of the Jordan. Woe, too. to the inexperi- enced stranger, who following his rule in other bathing dips his head as well as his body, into the Dead Sea. InAamed eyes and nostriis, together with hair and beard la den with acrid salts are among the penal ties of his rashness; while if he tastes of it's waters, he becomes acquainted with greater concentration of nastiness than had entered his imagination before. In buoy ancy and bitterness the Sea of Sodom ex-. ceeded all we had heard or read respecting it: but in some other particulars our antic- inations were falsifed surprisingly. We looked for gloom, and we found brightness; we had imagined tarbid waters, and we found lake eqquisitely clear and delicate Iv blue: we expected perfect silence and an unbroken waste, and We found the birds singing sweetly among the tamarisks and oleanders. which spring up wherever a stream tinda its way from the mountains to minRle with the mysterious inland sea. .A
