Sagacity.

Instances of the sagacity of dogs are
quite innumerable. n Massachusetts
paper adds one 10 the list, exhibiting
this intelligent animal in q new capacity,
that of newspaper carrier. Passengers
on the afternoon "scoOt" train from
Springfield may daily witness in West
field an instance of canine intelligence
worthy to go on record.
Soon after the train passes the trap
rock quarry on the outside of the track
used by the eastward bound trains,
dog can be seen racing along with the
cars until paper is thrown off by the
baggage-master. The dog instantly
siezes it, and, after giving bark of ac-
knowledgement, trots down the embank-
ment to the house of his owner not far
away. The sagacious animal is ap-
parently of Newfoundland and st. Ber-
nard breed, and for three or four years
has acted as news-carrier in the way de-
scribed. Every day except Sunday,
summer and winter, he goes to ms post
on the track at about the time the train
is due, and there awaits the throwing
of the paper. 1t is said that he not only
knows the hour when the train should
come along, but that on one day in sew
en- there is no need for his services. Ap-
parently the dog has learned to know
the whistle of his train from any other,
for if in the road or yard when the
whistle is sounded, half mile down
the track, he rushes for his station.

u has recently been demonstrated
that in perfectly moist air no forma-
ton of fog is possible, however much
the temperature is lowered, 80 long as
the air is absolutely free from dust, and
that the more air, sufficiently moist,
is charged with such foreign PARTICLES,
the more intense is the formation of fog.
If filtered and completely moist air in a
glass ball have its pressure diminished,
only few particles Of fog Will reveal
themselves to the most careful inspec-
tion. But if a few cubic millimetres
of ordinary house air be now admitted
into this filtered air, very fine, sllyery,
transparent fog at once forms itself, of
such slight density that even In the
case of a considerable area of it the
transparency Of the atmosphere would
be but very slightly affected. At the
first moment Of Its formation, if re-
hected image Of the sun, or the reflect
ed light OF an electric lamp, be viewed
through it. the image will be seen sur
rounded by an intensely luminous blue
or greenish light.
