Training SheDher1.Dops

Description by Darwin, the Naturalist.
The following extract gives Mr.. Oar
wins description Of the method of train
ing shepherd dogs:
"When riding it is common thing to
meet large flock of sheep guarded by
one or two dogs, at the distance OF some
miles from any house or man. / often
wondered how so firm a friendship had
been established. The method of educa-
ton consists in separating the puppy
while very young from its mother, and
IN accustoming it to its future companions
A eve is held three or four times a day
for the little thing to suck, and nest Of
wool Is made for it i'll the sheep-pen. At
no time is it allowed to associate with
other dogs, or with the children of the
family. From this education it has no
wish to leave the flock; and Just as an
other dog will defend its master, man, so
will these dogs defend the sheep. 1t is
amusing to observe when approaching 3
flock, how the dog Immediately advances
barking, aud the sheep all close in his
rear, as if round the oil aest ram. These
dogs are easily taught to bring home the
flock at certain hour in the evening.
Their most troublesome fault when young
is their desire to play with the sheep, for
in their sport they sometimes gallop' the
poor things most numerically.
The shepherd dog comes to the house
every day for some meat, and as soon as
it is given him he skulks away, as it |

and begins to bark, and then all the
house-dogs take quickly to their heels.

A Memorable Ocean Passa oe.

A late issue of the New York Maritime
Register announces the quickest passage
said to have been made by sailing yes
sell from our. Pacific cost, by way Of Cape
Horn to England. The ship Wildwood
of San Francisco, Captain Hartman, al
rived at Queenstown with cargo of
grain on the 9th of September, having
made the passage from Astoria, Oregon,
in nlnety-six days. She was built at
Puget Sound, and was desi gned for car
rying spars, being 1913 feet long, with 40
feet breadth Of beam, but only 20 feet
deep. As the Wildwood does rot ap-
pear to be regular clipper ship, her run
must be regarded as great nautical feat
In the regular clipper the tall mast, en-
able the wind force to exert decidedly
greater p1opelling power than on the
shorter masts Of the ordinary merchant
man. A French writer, Admiral Series,
in the pages of La Nature, a scientific
journal, has very recently recorded some
experiments made on board trigate
ship to test the relative power of the
wind at different elevations above thc
deck. in which it was found that wind
gauge placed about seventy-fve feet
above deck registered onc-sixth, Or Is per
cent, more of pressure than similar in
strument near the deck. It is this cir
cumstance which, gives, perhaps, the
chief advantage to the tall-m asted clipper
III making the great faces over the Ljgh
seas.
But the remark able voyage here record
| cd appears to be chiefly due to the i'm
proved charts and sailing directions for
the course from our Pacific coast around
Cape Horn to England. Twenty or TWEEN.
ty-tive years ago Lieutenant Maury said
Tho average passage out from Atlantic
ports to San Francisco is 1876 days, but
vessels with these charts on board have
made it in 107, in ninety seven, in nine
ty-slx, and even in ninety days" lie
was, of course, then abiding to the ex-
PLOTS OF the best clippers, carefully using
the improved charts and new sailing d.
reetions, based upon the extensive re-
searches Of the National Observatory.
But these exploits do not eclipse or de.
tract from the fine passage which has
just been made by this San Francisco
merchant vessel. With the increasing
knowledge Of ocean meteorology now
afforded by the intentional researches
ana the international weather charts and
OF the nothern hemisphere, and with a
ship cana through the Nicara9uan 18TH
mus, may form some idea of the time
and expense that will be saved to the
the commerce of the world IN the transit
OF ships from the North Pacific to the
North Atlantic Ocean. The reduction
would certainly be more than SO per cent.

a SWEDISH POEM.


It matters little where was born
Or II my parents were rich or poor,
Whether they shrank at the cold worlds scorn,
: Or walked in the pride of wealth secure;
But whether live an honest man,
And hold my integrity firm in my clutch,
tell you, brother, plain as am,
1t matters much!
It matters little how long / stay
In world Of sorrow, sin and care;
Whether in youth am called away,
Or live till my bones and head are bare;
But whether 1 do the best can
To soften the weight of adversity's touch
On the faded cheek of my fellow man
1t matters muchs
1t matters little where be my grave,
Or on the land or on the sea;
But on purling brook or meath stormy wave.
It matters little or naught to me:
But whether the angel Death comes down
And marks my brow with his loving touch,
AS one who shall wear the yictor's crown

FALLING.

The>last leaves are falling.
Falling and flying.
Along the dark air
The tempest is crying,
The trees are all bare,
With It's voice Of despair
Winter is calling
The leaves to their falling
How fair was their budding
Their golden unfolding:
Their verdurous gloom.
And delicate spEendor.
More lovely than bloom:
With tracery tender
And emerald plume
The wild forest studding.
How bright was their dying!
What rashness of glory,
The rainbow defying,
On mountain sides lying,
Ia valleys rcposing.
Yet, once despairing,
4 low voice is singing:
They have their repairing
Far down in the earth
Is springtiEne preparing
Her wonderful birth
Her ever upsPrirging
Reiterant mirth.
What wonderful story
Their bravery told
10 scarlet and gold;
But wan with the cold
They are falling and aying.
But for thee, but for thee.
Sole leaf On the tree,
All gone before thee.
What springtime shall be!
There remaineth for all
That thou fall"

Fertilization OF Flowers by Insects.

ttr. CASTOR n0onic-. en- Euronean OBJ
server Tor a number of years past in vari-
Gus parts OF Europe. in which times he
has carefully examined some 800 plants
with reference to form, color, perfume
and nectarl-ike secretions, boldly chal-
lenges the opinion OF such observers as
Darwin, Delpina, Mueller, Lubbacl1 and
others, as to these characteristics being
adaptlons to secure the visits of insects,
and consequently the fertilization OF
flowers. He gives details in recent num-
bers of the Bulletin Of the Botanical So
clety OF France as follows:
~. The development Of coiors in flow
ers has no relation to the DEVELOPMENT of
nectar. In closely allied species of the
same genus, the most conspicuous flow
ers are not those which are most visited
by insects.
20. In diecious flowers provided with
nectar, the insects do not visit first the
male and afterwards the female flower.
80. Bees become accustomed to color,
but as much so to those which are incon
splcuous as to those which are brilliant,
For the same weight Of honey a green
surface is as freely visited as q green
surface with a background OF red.
ID. The development of spots and
stripes on the corolla has no relation to
the production Of nectar"
Mr.. Boomer has spent much research,
according to the most authoritative inform
alton we have. His conclusions are that
these accumulations occur generally in
those organs of the plants where develop
ment is active, as in the young leaves and
ovarles. He finds that when the ennis
sion OF the liquid secretaons cease, the
sacharine matters contaj ned IN the nectar
les return in other parts, and concludes
that they are used in the neighboring
parts in subsequent development. That,
In fact, the hectares, whether floral OF
extra feral, whether they secrete LIQUID
or not, act as reservoirs of nutr1ment,
and this in direct relation to the life of
the plant.
