Can Birds FOretell Events +!

We have already expressed our belief
that many birds have the ability to foretell
4 coming storm. AS this is not directly
connected with the subject of our essay, rs
we are now considering it. we will pass to
another feature of this prophetic power. rs
il apparently is, i'll birds. and that is. their
ability to Judge of the general character
of the coming season by \ visit of a few
days duration early in Spring. We have
so frequently noticed that certain birds
common to Il locality during the Summer.
occasionally fail To visit it. except one or
two individuals that in April come for a
few days. ;hat it has appeared to us that
these ''pionecr' birds saw satisfactory
reasons for believing that there would be
4 scarcity of food. and SO return TO meet
their fellows, and, informing them. they
all depart to " fresh fields and pastures
new" just as a single crow, discovering
danger. will turn the whole colony from
their course rs they are going to their
rooSting-place. This, be it understood.
is our supposition. and it may he wholly
untrue; but how are we 10 interpret the
meaning of any habit or particular move
mcnt of 4 bird except by the human stand
ard? IN act on the part of 4 bird is intel
liyible to us only rs we would interpret a
corresponding act in man; and these facts,
in birds and men. producing allied results.
Indicate that close connection between all
animal life which is 50 readily compre-
hended from an evolution standpoint
Now. rs an instance of this - forctelinr :
power in birds. we noted. during the past
Spring. the arrival of the first chewink
(Ppilio crtythropthalmus) on April %.
Busly among the dry leaves and tangled
briers it hopped. enlivening the thicket
with its constant song. just as Il dozen of
its kind had done throughout the preceding
Summer. In few days it had disappeared,
and not 4 chewink has been seen or heard
for nearly six months Now few are
noticed on their way South from the
country north of us. This locality is one
where these birds usually congregate, and
we have often found dozen nests in the
| limits of the spot. But few miles away
these birds were abundant as usual. In
two ways we can explain the absence OF
these birds; either those that were accus-
toned to occupy it went to 4 new loca litv
and the single bird that had preceded
them. finding that his companions did not
come, left rather than remain alone; or Ii.
left to announce that food would be scarce
for it must be remembered, as Darwin has
remarked, "most animals and birds kee,
to their proper homes, and do not need
lesslv wander about We see this. ever
with migratory birds, which almost alwav.
return to the same spot" At any rate, til,
Summer of 1874. in this ncighborhood
was the lryest in the past forty years

MICROSCOPIC EGGS IN RAlN.-During n
rainstorm in the vicinity of Menaslla. Wis.
on June /, drops of a jellv-like substance
fell in quantities varying from fifty drops
on a square foot to a depth Of an eighth of
an inch. The drops We're about the size
of a currant and remained upon the ground
some time. A quantity wrs gathered by
F. w Hewes. Principal of Schools, who.
by examination under the microscrope,
found that each drop of the singular sub
stance contained from 1900 TO 1000 of what
appeared to be eggs. He sent "a specimen
of the substance in a vial to the editor of
the Chicago Inter- ocean. in order that it
might be submitted TO some scientific in
vestigators, and it was accordingly divided
amongst several gentlemen of that city.
one of whom, Dr. r. L. Piper has sue
ceeded in Matching out the eggs. The
Larvae are of two kinds, having the same
general form, but differing in some par
ticulars. They resemble very much the
! Larvae of the mosquito family, though many
times smaller. DIR. Piper says he had dis
covered some Larvae very like them in form
and size in stagnant water near Chicago
He is unable to determine what the crea-
ture really is. but is not disposed to think
that they have come from the other sphere.
His opinion is that they are of mundane
origin taken up, perhaps, by Il whlrlwind
and carried with the rain-cloud until they
came down in the shower. The subject is
one which might be studied by naturali>ts
with profit
