it was ascertained that he had

The Vision and Hearing of Fish.

But little has been written on the deyel-
opment of vision and hearing in fish, and
that little has been theory rather than de-
duction from actual experiment. My own
| experiments as to the effects that sound
| produces on trout land | assume that all
/ fishes are more or less alike in this respect)
| have been confined to this: Frequently
when able TO observe trout while myself
| unseen, | have screamed and shouted at
the top of my voice. These demonstrations
| have invariably been without the slightest
effect; but when varied by a conclusion
| which would communicate itself to the
water, this has no longer been the case, and
! evidence of alarm, or at least that the con-
J CussiOn has been felt, has been apparent.
| In an English work, the name of which
in vain endeavor to recall, an account of
some very interesting and more decisive
| experiments are given. The writer caused
a building to be erected over the water, and
made his observations through small aper-
| lures constructed for the purpose, so that
he was quite concealed. His trout were
| well accustomed to the wiles of the angler
and timid. Sending man out of sight
behind the building, the firing of a
gun by him produced not the slightest
effect on the trout, who rose freely during
the experiment to flies blown toward them
through tube. | am, therefore convinced
that no sound is injurious which does not
communicate its vibration to the water.
But conclusion upon the side or bottom of
boat, or Jumping from rock 10 rock, or
blows upon a hard bottom with the wadng
staff or with hob-nailed shoes, | think are
so invaded through and by the water as to
be in some manner perceptble to the fish
and alarm them. That fish possess the
sense Of hearing their anatomical structure
goes far to prove. while that they are not
insensible to sounds produced in the air
must be admitted, unless the doubter is pre-
pared to call in question the numerous ac-
counts by alleged eye-witnesSes of their
coming 10 be fed at the sound of bell, etc
This |, for one, hesitate to do. notwith-
standing | have never been able to make a
sound in the air which seemed to produce
the slightest effect on trout in water to
which fish my experiments have been con-
fined. 1t may, however, well be assumed
that the sound was perceived while the
fish were so habituated to the roar of the
waterfall and similar noises, without any
i'll consequences ensuing that sound alone
was not regarded by them as an indication
Of danger Exchange.

\ Buddhist Cremation.

The Crematory Is a low tower of brick
within are four raised stones on which to
rest the bamboo chair, wherein with the
mOnaStic cOWl drawn over his head. and
hands placed palm to palm before his
breast, rs il i'll prayer sits the dead monk,
who, within twelve hours of his death.
must be carried hither Dy lay brothers. He
is followed to the funeral pyre by all the
brethren, walking twO-and-twO clothed in
sackcloth, and having a white cloth bound
round the head in token of woe They
have previously held solemn service in the
temple for the repose of the dead, and as
the procession slowly advances they chant
funeral hymns. Through the narrow door
way of the crematory the chair is carried,
fagots are placed beneath and all around
1t, and the chief priest kindles
the flame, all the mourners falling pros
uate with their faces to the ground while
commenting the mortal body to the ethe-
real fire. While the body is being cremated
small pieces of fragrant sandalwood are
from time TO time thrown into the flames.
When the fire has done its work, and only
a few Charred bones and ashes remain
these are collected in a stone jar and placed
beside similar jars in a scpuichral store
house, where they remain till a certain dav
OF the year lthe ninth day of the ninth
month";, when each Jar is empticd into a
bag OF red cloth. These are carefully sewn
up and are then thrown through small
sort OF window into great solid granite
mausOieUm. There are two of the build
ings in the temple grounds, but one of them
may no longer be used, not for lack of
room, bat because it already contains about
1850 sacks OF ashes, and Buddhist law for
bids the storing Of a larger number in one
place. The Ossuary now in use is divided
into two compartments, one of which is
assigned 10 the ashes of Buddhist nuns.
1t appears that there are exceptional in
stances when cremation is dispensed with,
and ordinary burial in ponderous cottins is |
lawful, even for priest. Such cases,
though rare, have occurred in compare
lively recent years, and some very old
horseshoe tombs in the temple ground
prove that such burials were permitted
long ago. At the time Of my visit these
stones were being renewed in most lii |
eral sense, as the ancient inscriptions were
being copied on to brand-new stones
