Among the domestic animals whose
Improvement by breeding adds 20 the
prosperity and wealth of the country the
horse perhaps stands first in order, pos
,ibly second. His contribution to the
enjoyment Of life is quite another thing.
Among animal commercial products the
foremost in value are those Of the COW
next. those Of the hog; whether theprod

to be assigned third place may be debat.

MIGRATION OF BIRDS.
The Prompting Causes OF Their Lengthy
Flights.


Brchm, the distinguished German
naturalist, who has so recently died,
says love and hunger are the birds only
guiding impulses. The statement is
made. and is a very interesting one,
that those that cross the Mediterranean
sea in going from Africa to Europe fol-
low certain fixed youtes: First, by the
Straits of Gibraltar: second, from Tunis
to Sardinia and Corsica to the shores of
the Gulf of Genoa: third, from Tripoli
by Malta and Sicily to Italy, etc.
How were these lines of passage
learned? In the diluvial period, what
is now the Mediterranean sea consisted
of two large lakes, one of which was cut
Off the ocean by n broad strip of land
where now are the Straits of Gibraltar,
and which were separated from each
other by Il land dixie composed of Italy,
Sicily, etc, which connected the two
continents. The birds, as they in
creased in numbers, migrated by these
routes in search of better breeding
places, and Us the lands sank they con-
tinucd to follow them over gradually
narrowing belts of land, over marshes
and laguncs- and finally over broad
waters, and yet no one generation was
aware of any change. They carried
with them the memory of their warm
winter home, and on the approach of
the European winter, when their food
supply failed, returned to it with their
young.
If this explanation is the correct one,
1T is evident, says Forest and Stream
that VIC have failed in our efforts to- IN
troducc these migratory birds because
we have attempted to reverse the proc
ess by which the habit of migration
was acquired, and, in order to succeed.
instead of turning them loose in the
north, we must give the strangers, sky
larlls, nightingales, quail, etc., a suita-
bic southern winter habitat (Florida,
Louisiana, Mcxico), from which in
spring, food failing or driven by an in
hcrcnt tendency las asserted by Prof
BairdD they may wander to some other
locality suitable for raising their young,
and to which, by virtue of memory thus
acquired and finally Inherited they may
return when food fails them in their
summer hCEFe.
If they wander in all directions from
the winter hcme, those that go to- the
most favorable localities will most GER
tainly survive and multiply. while none
Of them will be in such unfavorable
conditions as those that may be turned
loose IN CUR Northern States. They
will then, so far us we can arrange it
for them, be best prepared for the
struggle for existence in this country,
oveE thc whole of which, if they find
favorable conditions, we may expect
them soon to- spread and thus repay us
for our expenditure of effort and money.
by initiating the processes Of nature we
shall make haste slowly, but we shall
finally have our reward.

HOW THEY MARRIED.
She Is Now Mrs. John G.. Slscumb.

On Tuesday afternoon two of Clin-
toms young people, Mr.. John C. Slo-
cumb and Miss Annie Giddens were seen
out driving. Nothing strange about
that. But night came on and they had
not returned. At Q o'clock Mr.. B. F
Herring arrived in town, went to Mr..
Slocumb's house and called out his bro
ther, Mr.. w. R. K. Slocumb, who is a
travelling salesman, and happened to be
in town taking orders. and told him that
his brother John was out in the country
several miles distant and wished him to
join him. They drove by the office of
the Register of Deeds and Mr.. Herring
asked for license tor the marriage of the
above young couple. Both parties were
of age, so the Register readily issued the
litense. Messrs. Herring and Slocumb
soon reached the residence of W. e.
Stevens, Esq, and there in the presence
of Mrs. Stevens, Miss Manic Ashford
and Messrs. T.. l.. Ship, B. F. Herring
and w. r. K. Slocumb, the legal bonds
of an indissoluble union were tied by
Squire Stevens and Miss Annie G iddens
becomes Mrs. John e. Slocumb. The
bride and groom spent The night at Mr..
Stevens and returned to Clinton
yesterday. Whether it was the in
tention of the couple TO marry when
they left Clinton or come to this de-
cision while out driving is not
known. Mr.. Herring SAYS that they
drove up to his residence late in the
afternoon and requested him to come
to Clinton for the license and join
them at Mr.. Stevens. It is suppos-
ed that the families OF the contract
ing parties were not favorable to the
union. THE CAUCASIAN extends. its
best wishes.
