One of the best records for "an in
furiated bull', that we have heard of
in these parts for some time, was that
made by a specimen owned by John
Davis, of Speaker. Sunday the bull,
which has hitherto been safe, suddenly
attacked Brad. Spring. He would
probably have killed him had not Davis
dog come to the rescue. On Monday
again, the bull made a sally at Hugh
Davis, the owners son. He tore Davis
clothes to shreds, but, savea bad fright,
he escaped otherwise unharmed.

REALLY REMARKABLE.

With the hylobatas Of Borne0 however, we
are better acquainted. "A adult male Of this
division will, according to Hornaday, give the
following measurements: One foot seven inches
for tho length OF head aud body, and five feet
one inch for the whole reach Of both arms and
legs. This is also the distance from inger-tip

are fully extended.
A striking difference between gibbons and
oraugs is exhibited Ly this dimension. One Of
the latter apes who is no more than four feet
one or two inches tall, has = spread Of over
seven feet and yet the upper limbs are pro-
poTtiOnaliy much longer IN hylobates than in

Reasoning, however, from evidence presented
by the

would seem at first sight to exclude them, on
account Of human resembiances which do not
manifest themselves without a more than SUI
peTlicial examination.
Ia comparing apes with men, Huxley and
other naturalists have usually confined their
attention 10 gorillas, chimpanzees, and orangs,
and not taken notice Of the structural like
nesscs existing between the genera respectively
represented by man aud hylobates. Both
Haeckel aud DR.. Hartmann, however, point
out the human character Of the gibbons tho
rax. Besides this feature, its legs, as compared
with the length Of its trunk, are more like those
Of a man than Is the ease with either g0rllas
or chimpanzees. A samangs chin, also, is the
most human among those Of all apes, and its
breast-bone is also the widest. In quality Of
voice hoOlocks lHylobstes hoolock) make the
closest approach 10 mankind Of any mammal,
while in temper and feeling these animals
probably transcend large proportion Of savage
peoples.
AnatOmically the same, or nearly the same,
homologies are found TO exist between gibbons
and men, as have been demonstrated in tho
case Of higher apes, both African and Asiatic.
Omitting technical details, il may be said upon
the other hand that long armed apes alone
among anthropOids present
MOsKEY-LIKE
ischiatic callositiez, or indurations of skin
over that part of the bony pelvic girdle which
rests upon the ground in sitting.
Further, they approximate to guadTumanns,
or our-handed species, in the greater develop
ment OF their great toes, and IN the adaptation
Of the foot generally 70 the functions Of q hand.
Their canine teeth, likewise, resemble the fangs
OF balloons and monkeys proper, but tkey show
no rGdinent Of tail, and have no cheek
pouches
Forms belonging TO this genus are widely
distributed both on the continent of Asia and
in the Indian Archipelago. All Of them arc
slghter and smaller than either variety Of
orang- Ouian, and their very great tendency
toward variation, both specifically and within
the limits Of species, has thus far prevented
these animals from being satisfactorily CLASH
