zee, In order to protect her eggs, ex-

bee, In order to protect her eggs, ex-
cavates, in some piece of wood, a series
OF chambers, in special order with q
view to peculiar mode of exit for her
young; but the young mother can have
no conscious knowledge of the series
of actions subsequently to ensue. The
female of the wasp. sphex, affords an
other well-known, but very remarkable,
example of complex instinct closely
related to that already mentioned in
the case of the polecat. The female
wasp has to provide fresh, living ami
NAL food for her progeny, which, when
it quits its egg, quits it in the form of
an almost helpless grub, utterly unable
to catch, retain or kill an active, strug-
Cling prey. Accordingly, the mother
insect has not only to provide and place
beside her eggs suitable living prey, but
so to treat it that it may be helpless,
unresisting victim. That victim may
be mere caterpillar, or it may be a
great, powerful grasshopper, or even
that most fierce, active and rapacious
of insect tyrants, fell and venomous
spider. Whichever it may be, the
wasp adroitly stings it at the spot
which induces, or in the several spots
which induce, complete paralysis as to
motion, let us hope as to sensation
also. This done, the wasp entombs
the helpless being with its own egg,
and leaves it for the support of the fu-
ture grub.-St. George Mozart, in Fort
NIGHTLY ReVieiO.

BACK AGAIN.

The obi II SHOWS fingered, the Spring was late
1t seemed o weariful while to wait
Fer warmth, and fragrance, and song, and
And balmy airs and delicious showers.
But we bided our time, and with patient eyes
We watched the slow relonting skies,
Till at last one April morn we woke
10 md We were free of the winters yoke.
And q rush of wings through the rushing
rain
Told us the birds were lack again.
Joyous tumuM we heard aloft-
Clear, ripping music and futterings soft.
So light of heart and &c light of wing,
All hope of Summer, delight of Spring,
They seemed to utter with voices sweet,
Upborne ON their airy pinions feet.
Dainty, delicate, lovely thingsl
Would that my thoughts, like you, had wings
To match your grace, your charm, your cheer
Your fine, melodfous atmosphere.
Precious and beautiful gifts of God,
Scattered through heaven and earth abroad
Who, ungrateful, would do you wrong,
Check your hight and your golden soAg?
o friendly spiritsi o sweet, sweet birdsi
Would could put my welcome in words
Fit for such singers as you to hear,
Sky-born Ministries and poets deari

PREHISTORIC DOGS.

The Specimens Witch Have Come Down to
Us from the Stone and Bronze Periods.
In the Danish "kitchen-middens," OF
heaps.of household refuse, piled up by
the men of the Newer Stone period-a
time when our Scandinavian fore
fathers used Clipped or polished flints
instead of metal for their weapons-are
found bone-cuttings belonging to some
species of the genus CAMS. Along
with these remains are some of the
long bones of birds, all the other bones
of the said birds being absent. Now
it is known that the bird bones here
found are the very ones which dogs
can not devour, while the absent ones
are such as they can bolt with ease,
and it has been ingeniously argued
from this that the remains in question
did really belong to q domestic dog,
as, if the animals to which they apper-
tanned had been wolves, they would
have made short work of the long
bones as well as of the others. Other
dog-bones are found in Denmark in
later periods. At the time when the
flint knives were succeeded by bronze
a large dog existed, and at the time
when iron was used one larger still.
In Switzerland, during the Newer
Stone period, a dog existed, which is
probably the Oldest of which we have
any record. 1t ''partook of the charac-
ter of our hounds and settlers or SPAN
iels," and, in the matter of its skull,
was about equally remote from the
wolf and jackal." This dog, too, like
its Danish contemporary, was succeed
ed in the Bronze period by larger
variety. Thus we see that at time
when our ancestors were living ''in
dens and caves of the earth" in state
of civilization about equal to that of
the African or Australian aborigines of
the present day, the dog was already
Systematically kept and selected, :"
that is, any good varieties which APP
peared were taken note of and kept up.

A Bad Position to Place Ono In Who Did
Not Know Their PeculIarltIes.
One of the most striking character
istics of the Afghan and Tureoman
tribes, which has more than once been
very skillfully utilized by Russia in her
operations against them, is the extreme
bitterness with which they take sides in
the great controversy between SUM
and Shah sects, which may be called
the Catholics and Protestants of Islam.
The Shiahs, who are strong in Persia,
hold Mohammed's son-in-law, Ali, the
fourth Caliph, to be the prophets only
legitimate successor, denouncing his
three forerunners as usurpers, while
the SUMS, who abound in Afghanistan,
hold directly opposite creed. This
feeling, which has made the countless
Perso-Afghan wars unspeakably fero-
cious, is carried to such height that an
Englishman who lately begged the life
of a wounded Persian, was answered
by one of his Afghan comrades: Were
be only an unbeliever l would spare
him, but being Shah he must die. :"
A stranger entering an Afghan or Tur-
conan camp is often met with the chal-
lenge, What say'st thou of the first
three CaliphsP" and should he pro-
nounce in their favor, the crucial ques-
ton follows, what think'st thou of
Alp" to which if he value his life, he
must reply, cali was Kaiir'' ,Gnfdel)
