THE DOGS BARK.
IL Il an Evolution OF the Uncultared Yslp-
Ing Of Old.

The most curious imitation which we
find in dogs is as to the measure of ex-
preston TO which they have attained.
Among the savage forefathers of the
modern dog the characteristic of all
their utterance was, TO a great extent,
involuntary, and, once begun, the out
cry was continued in mechanical
manner, says Scribner's Magazine.
The effect Of advancing culture on
the dog, however, has been gradually
To decrease this ancient unditferenti-
ated mode OF expression by bowling
and yelping, and 10 replace ii by the
much more speech-lilie bark. There is
some doubt whether dogs possessed by
savages have the power Of uttering the
the sharp. specialized note which is SO
characteristic Of the civilized form OF
their species.
1t is clear. however, that if they have
the power of thus expressing them
selves. they used it but rarely. On the
other hand, our high-bred dogs have,
TO IA great extent. lost the power to ex'
press themselves in the ancient way.
Many of our breeds appear TO have be-
come incapable of ululating. There is
no doubt but the change in the mode OF
expression greatly increases the capac'
ity of our dogs to set forth their states
of mind.
II we watch high bred dog-one
with wide range of sensibilities,
which we may find in breeds which
have long been closely associated with
man-we may readily note five or six
varieties Of sound in the bark, each OF
which is clearly related to certain
state of mind. That of welcome, OF
fear, of rage, of doubt, and of pure
fun, are almost always perfectly dis
tinct to the educated ear and this, al
though the observer may not be &C
quainted with the creature. II he
knows him well he may be able TO dis
tinguish various other intonations-
those which express impotence, ane
even an element of sorrow. This las
note verges toward "A howl.
