4 Migration Of Birds.

Nirh. before last, up to , O'Clock yester-
day morning. immense tlocks OF birds were
Going over our city without intermiSSlon.
The icathercd travellers must be OF small
>i1c from their weak notes, which were sup
7,o.rd Nv some to be those OF ortolanS. This
nan have been the fact, but we rather think
-bey were >ora. These birds inhabit not
only the marshes of Virginia. but those also
ri the Middle States, where they arc called
rail.
In orr state they quit during the first
cold night. and not one is even seen next
morniu-. Friday night there came on q
Storm which must have been accompanied
Tx a fal! Of temperature north Of us. and
these Little birds are doubtless fleeing from
The coming cold. They must have ere this
settled in the marshes and fenS OF Virginia
and North Carolina, where they will abide
for about three weeks, and then, when the
frost comes on. they will start for warmer
ciimc>.
This Disappearance OF the sora has long
been puzzle. It Is the firm bellef OF the
ne.,ro,t that when frost comes they turn to
fro.>. sink in the ooze Of the creeks.
and rh,rc sleep till warm weather comes
,,.,ip, Tl> theory, worthy Of Sambo, is
=, trul; liked in the mind OF the Congo
MAN ., ,ne wool Is fixed on his skull.
There ,::u be no doubt that we have
given the true account Of the way they
take their departure. The only difficulty
abo,,, j, i that these birds are so very fat
when thew leave us that they can fly but
VERY shor. distance. and we cannot well I'M
der>tand how they can travel far during
even one night. The probability is, how
ever that they migrate only far enough at
one time 10 escape the frost, and that they
recupcrme their strength in their new
abodc> till obliged to remove again.
They are thus enabled by short journeys
10 travel from the marshes Of New Jersey
10 those IN Florida. 4 wonderful fact is
this thing we call instinct, which enables
the lower animals to foresee the times
and seasons, and adapt their movements
10 ensure their future preservation. We
know nothing about this instinct, word
coined to hide our Ignorance, but which
i 20 Jar superior in many respects to our
toasted reason. Our numerous meteoro-
logical observations enable us to certain en-
tent 10 forecast the weather, and we doubt
not tina; after many years experience we
shall dcduce laws therefrom OF incalculable
Importance TO man. We doubt, however,
that W" shall ever become such perfect

TIE COST OF THE BRITISH MUsEUM.-The
trustees OF the British Museum have Just
issued return of the total expenditure on
that institution since its foundation in 1903
ND to the end of March, 1S75-nearly CEN
tury and quarter. The charges are classi-
fed under their distinct heads, and show
the entire expenditure during that period,
with the following interesting results: For
the staff and buildings together, SIS, l0S,655;
for new buildings and repairs, $4,000, 425 !;
for rates and taxes, 1850. The charge
for the staff alone during the entire perloao,
for salaries, wages, police, and pensions, IS
s.. $780, 35 this item in 1S74-'5 reached the
sum Of S275,0SO). From the staff and
building charges also must be deducteo
the cost of book-binding and preparing
and printing the catalogues, &C., all OF
which is executed on the premises, and also
the sum Of 49,, $50 for the publication OF the
cuneiform inscriptions. In contrast to the
seemingly enormous sums expended on the
staff. etc, is the comparatively small sum
expended on the collection itself. During
the corresponding period the entire cost OF
purchases amounts to S5,354,670, or con.
siderably less than one-third OF the cost OF
maintenance The expenditure in anslqul-
ties. including excavations, has Deen-ln
Assyria,i S90,549; in Ephesus, the large
sum OF 81 ,sSS,165; on manuscripts, S6OO,-
1G0: on music, maps, and books, Sl,6l4,56o.
THESE sums do not, of course, represent the
intrinsic worth OF the collection, as from
gifts from private individuals, and also from
the fact that all English modern ,pubilca-
tions are by law obtained free, the true
value Of the collection is almost lncom-
Dutable. ..,4, go IS .'.s't
