1t has lately been decided to increase
the already large staff of German mill
tary pigeons, of which there are at
present in different fortresses about,
1000. These pigeons are taught not to
alight on the dovecote, but, on their
arrival at their destination, to knock
against the closed wire wicket, which
motion causes leaden ball to drop,
thereby opening the wicket and set
ting IL mechanism in motion that con-
meets with bell i'm the the room OF
the keeper. The officer then detaches
the message from the tail feathers oil
the pigeon, the message being rolled
up in the hollow quill of a pigeons tail
+ Gather, which feathers are carefully
collected for despatch purposes, as be-
ing most easily hidden among the nat
ural feathers of the carrier bird. These
quilts contain, in micro-photographic
reduction, about eight pages (octavo)
OF writing, which, by the hydro-oxy-
gengas microscope, are reproduced in
