a quiet and steady feeling prevailed. Trading
was lighter and entirely in deferred futures.
The opening was firm, but liberal offerings
caused weak feeling, and prices for May de-

An Animal Sense Which Remains a Myster.

An Animal Sense Which Remains a Mystery
to Science,
Many animals are endowed with senses
which remain yet quite mysterious to our
understanding and all we know is that these
senses exist. There is the homing faculty,
which is well known to occur in many ami
mails, such as the bee, many migratory ami
mails, many fishes, the horse, dog, etc. Ofthe
wonders of the homing faculty, many in
stances are quite familiar to our readers. 1t
is known, for instance, that many honey
hunters find their prey by catching bees, and
letting them free at different points. Each
bee strikes home Immediately, and SO, to find
the beehive, one only needs to follow the
Decline of two or three bees, as they point to
one and the same spot, and come across each
other at the very spot where the hive is to be
found, and is actually discovered Eels and
fishes often 60 from one pond to another,
very distantly located or from pond to the
sea, in a quite straight line, without any mis-
take. 1t would seem that this homing facul-
ty pre-exists to all individual experience,

seen a young alligator, which had just got
out of its egg, which had been broken by
this observer, make Immediately for the di-
rection in which water was close by. Again /,
