CURIOsITIEs OF ANIMAL LIFE.-Therc
can be no doubt, writes Mr.. Darwin, that
dogs feel shame as distinct from fear, and
something very like modesty, when beg
ging for food. A great dog scorns the
snarling of a little dog, and this may be
called magnanimity. Several observers
had stated that monkeys certainly disliked
being laughed at, as they sometimes in
vent imaginary offences. In the Zoologi-
cal Gardens saw baboon that always
got into furious rage when his keeper
took out a letter or book and read it aloud
to him, aud his rage was so violout that, as
| witnessed on one occasion, he bit his
own leg till the blood flowed.
All animals feel wonder ; and many ex-
hibit curiosity, the latter aflording oppor.

world, to decoy the game into their power.
The faculty of imitation, so strongly dcve-
loped IN man, especially in babarous state,
is present in monkeys. y certain bull

die of the door, and grasps it with his

Attention and memory are also present
in the lower animals, and it is impossible
to deny that the dreams of dogs and horses
show presence of imagination or certain
show Of reason is present. Animals like
wise profit by experience, as any man real
izes who sets traps. The young arc much
more easily caught than the old, and the
adults gain caution by seeing the fate of
those who are caught. Tools are also used
by some Of the higher apes. The CHM
panZec uses stone to crack a nut resem-
bling Il walnut, and the Abyssinian bab-
oons fight troops of another species, and
roll down stones in the attack before they
finally close in hand-to-haud encounter.
The idea of common property is common
also to every dog with bone, to all birds
with their nests, and notably in the case of
rocks. Nor can Il certain kind of language
be denied to the brute. The dog commu-

everybody in the vicinity; and when peo-
pie of this sort affect excessive piety. and

SWAPPING HoRsEs.-A Kentuckian and

SWAPPING HORSES. "A Kentuckian and
a Yankee were once riding through tho
woods, the former on fine black horse,
and the Yankee on an inferior animal. Tho
latter wanted TO make "swop," but he
did not see how he was to do il. At last
he thought of plan. His horse had been
taught to sit down like q dog whenever he
was touched by the spurs. Seeing wild
turkey, the Yankee made his horse per-
form the trick, and asserted that he was
pointing his game, az was his custom. The
Kentuckian rode in the direction indicated
by the horses nose, aud up rose u turkey.
That settled the matter the trade was
made, and saddles and horses were chang
ed.
After time they came to d deep and ra-
pid stream, over which the black horse
carried the rider with ease. But the Ken
tuckan. on the Yankees old beast, found
great difficulty in getting over, aud when
he had reached the middle Of the stream,
he was afraid the horse would allow him
self to be carried away, and so endeavored
to spur hi;a up TO more vigorous action.
Down sat the horse on his launches,
Look here J" shouted the enragcd and
partially submerged Kentuckan to the
Yankee on the other side of the stream,
