Animals and Earth Vibrations.

Very probably not only fish but ami
mails and some birds hear as much by
the vibration of the earth as bv the
sound travelling in the atmosphere, and
depend as much upon their immediate
perception of she slightest tremor Of the
earth as upon recognition by the ear in
the manner familiar to ourselves. When
rabbits, for instance, are out feeding in
the grass, it is often possible to get quite
close to them by walking in this way,
extremely slow, and carefully placing
the foot by slow degrees upon the
ground. The earth is then merely
pressed, and, and not stepped upon at
all, so that there is no jar BY doing
this | have often moved up within gun
shot of rabbits without the least aid from
cover. Once now and then have walked
across field straight at them. Some
thing, however, depends on the direc-
ton of the wind, for then the question
of scent comes in. To some degree it is
the same with hares. 1t is certainly the
case with birds, aswood pigeons, a flock
of them, will remain feeding only just
the other side of the hedge, but if you
stamp the earth, will rise instantly. So
will rocks, though they will not fly far
if you are not armed. Partridges GER
tainly secure themselves by their atten-
tion to the faint tremor of the ground.
Pheasants do so too, and make off,
running through the underwood long be-
fore any one is in sight. The most sensi-
tive are landrails, and it is difficult to
get near them, for this reason. Though
the moving grass must conceal an ap-
preaching person from them as it'con-
ceals them from him, these birds change
their positions, no matter how quietly
he walks Let him be as cunning as he
will, and think to cut off corners and
cross the landrail's retreat, the bird
battles him nine times in ten. That it il
advised of the direction the pursuel
takes by the vibration of the surface is
at least probable. Other birds sit, ano
hope to escape by remaining still til
they detect the tremor coming direct to-
ward them, when they rise. Rain an6
dry weather change the susceptibility o.
the surface to vibrate, and may some
times in part account for the wildness o.
apparent tameness of birds and animals
Should any one doubt the existence O.
j such tremors he has only to lie on tn,
ground with his ear near the surface
,, but, being unused to the experiment, h.
! will at first only notice the heavie
i sounds, as of wagon or a cart-horse. Il
recent experiments with most delicat
instruments devised to show the cosmi
! vibration of the earth, the movement
. communicated to it by the tides, or b
: the 'tpull" of the sun and moon, it ha
q been found almost impossible as yet t
carry out the object, so greatly are thes
movements obscured by the ceaseless an
inexplicable vibrations of the solid earth
4 There is nothing unreasonable in tn
- supposition that, if an instrument ca
" be constructed to show these, the ears q
\ animals and birds-living organisms
!, and not iron and steel-should be able
discover the tremors of the surface. Lii
