.CURIOsfTaEs OF ANIMAL
LIFE.

The dolphin follows a ship in
which music is performed.
= A hogsl7ead Of herrings have been
taken out Of the belly Of whale.
The raackarel, although a gregn.
rions fsh, is an ever restless rover.
Brehm says that the horse is de,
lighted with the note of a trumpet.
In Bengal the natives say that the
oei male tiger kills all the male cubs
he can.. find. when they are very
. young.
The dog. while apparently tormen-
ted by The notes Of a sopr no voice.
sScmalns rndisturbed by those of
basa voice.
The'soSgs Of birds, as well as most
other sounds Of musical birds, have
az their express object the charming
of female ears.
A tiger in State of nature has
been known TO spring up the precipi.
tous SIDE of a hill from sixteen to
twenty fact high, showing marvellous
agility.
Rabbits have been driven by hun,
ger to'eat their ears. they accom-.
lish the feat by bending the ear
eown.'with their paw until it reaches
the mouth.
a gentleman, in Walton County,
-, lately found a two legged rat in
his corn crib. He says the animal
seems never 70 have more than two
legs. 1t has become quite tame.
When the young tigers have left
their parents, they are far more de-
s'ruciive than grown-up tigers, often
killing three cows at time, while
the adult rarely ever kills more than
one.
The Bembex ..(spocies of the wasp
never fails TO find the entrance to her
cell, covered as it is with sand, exact
lys Ordinary eyes like all around.
She never makes mistake or loses
her way.
The abundance Of herring>ova
spawned upon the coast of Labrador
has been reported by trustworthy
observer to be so great that he has
seen the shore covered with it to the
depth of two feet for several miles.
The scales of the short tailed manis
are of substance so hard that on col
lision they viii strike fire like flint.
The armor Of the manis is so strong
that no other animal is able to over
come it when it acts on the defensive.
Between :he dog-fsh and the gulls
there seems to be mutual alliance
against the herrings; the dogs" drive
them to the surface, when thew are
bounced upon by the gul1s, and scar
ed hnck to their relentless enemies
the dogs"
The tiger takes particular ca.e of
those terrible weapons, his claws.
Tees are frequently seen in jungles
scored with long vertical assures to
the height Of eight or ten feet from
the ground, where tigers have cIeansed
and sharpened their claws.
alt is curious that the least noise
will stop tiger, as it will cat. A
"hish!" or single knock on tree
with an axe, or even leaf dropped
before him from 8 tree-top, is quite
enough to turn him, unless he be
more than usually resolute.
The main artery in the common
whale is pipe into which n man
might creep with ease; the heart
throws out from twelve to fifteen gall
Ions of blood at every pulsstion; the
tongue has been compared to a vast
feather bed, on which half a dozen
men might find ample room for re-
pose. The whales tail has a surface
OF one hundred square feet.
