Two Great Naturaiists with Widely

Varying Fields.
The naturalist's mind Is, above all
things, receptive; open to Impressions,
not creative; a sensitive plate which
records if 1t can, and if it cannot, re-
ceives the Impressions for it's own salts
faction and enjoyment. We believe that
the very best record extant Ct this recep-
tiveness and of the in sesSlons which
such minds receive fror nature, and OF
the mingled characters and relatively
of these impressions, is seen in the cuts
in Bewick's two volumes on birds-not
so much In the plates Of the birds as In
the little yignettes with which the
book is adorned, and in the tiny land
scapes often inserted behind the figures
of the different species. He know the
wrinkles In the bark of every sort of
tree, the natural line OF the splits and
the cracks in dead wood and living
wood, the angle that each kind Of twig
makes with It's parent branch when liy-
ing, and the portions it loses when
dead. Every shift of weather, the car
pentry of the shed, the gate, the barn,
the record Of the tombstone, and the
death and decay " men, animals and
trees were all recorded on the sensitive
plate Of this northern naturalfst's
brain. He evidently derived intense
satisfaction from his way of life. Yet
his area Of interest was very limited
This mattered very little to one who
made such use of it. But though change
and variety are in time greatly desired,
and the new sights give keener pleas

as in other things the appetite grows
