Are Animals Sensible 10 Ridicule 4,

Mr.. Sidney Buxton, In one Of his anus
Ing papers on animals, in the Iniasai World
for February, says that dogs and horses
are. as far As he knows. the only animals
sensitive to ridiculo, while cats aud bird.
arc wholly unaware that they are being
laughed at. lie tells Of a pony of his own
which gets very cross when disparaging
iemirks are male upon him, and becomes
furious, and stamps about his stall, putting
back his ears, and attempting to bite" if
he is openly laughed at. while praise great
ly pleases him. The truth is that it is only
those creatures which can feel sympathy
with men which can also appreciate ridi-
Guile. The horse sympathizes evidently
with many Of his riders feelings and
amussments, whils the dog can enter into
no small proportion Of his feelings. But
birds aud cats, though often exceedingly
affectionate, and full of attachment 10 in
dividuals, hardly ever attempt to enter into
human feslings-as Cowper's dog Beau,
for instance, entered into the poets desire
to possess himself of the water lily. The
hatred Of ridicule always accompanies a
capacity for sympathy. Certainly dogs,
and probably horses. know the diffsre,
between being laughed at in derision, as
We laugh at fool, and being laughed at in
admiration, as we laugh at a good comic
actor, and enjoy the latter as much as they
resen: the former. 1t is questionable, how
ever, whether some parrots do no, under
stand and enjoy the practice Of making fun
OF their human acquaintarcss do not APP

themi but not being able to agree upon the
number to be selected, they requested a
little girl TO decide for them. She fixed
upon No. 10000. They did not like it,
thinking the number too obvious, not suffi

her choice, dec Sharing her conviction that
the number would prove a lucky one
Whereupon, setting her down as q silly

An old incident was connected with a
lottery ticket early in the present century.
Baron 'Aguilar was requested by friend
to purchase for him No. i4,06s which lie
felt certain would prove lucky one. Tho
baron could not fulfill the commission, for
he found that this particular number was
already sold. The humber came up prize

14,O6s, and remained long ignorant Of the
fact that that ticket had proved luck
one.
Charles Lamb tells a story of a gentle.
man who had purchased No. 1869. Passing
lottery office, he saw a placnrd announc.

600 prize. He walked round st. Panl's to
cool his agitation before entering the office;
Oh going back again he found that he had
mistaken 10. O69 for 1869.

girls sat calmly in their chairs, and told us
they had crossed fiom Meiningeu to the

day before. through q foot Of snow, had
walked nine miles down the valley that
morning, and then had climbed up all the
way from Nieseh to the hotel ON foot, in
the rain, that afternoon. We looked at
them aghast, and murmurcd: Tired. -
oh, no, they briskly chorused; and, in
deed, they did look most provokingly fresh
and pretty. Whsn We appeared in the
morning, the senior Of our party announced
that those Eng lish giiIs started 10 walk
