= Singing Earthyy oFIn.

We have heard Of good many crea-
lures which sing, including Mr.. Rus
kln's singing serpents in the valley of
Diamonds, yet Mr.. Annandale has as
sured US that there exists in the Malay
peninsula a being which the Malays de-
scribed under the above heading.
1t lives in burrow in the ground
ana cheerfully sings, or at least chirps.
But the Malays call everything that
creeps worm, and the beast which
they really mean is a large kind Of
cricket with a voice
In the very same part of the world,
however, is a real carthWOrm, a huge
monster three or four feet in length.
which was discovered not long ago and
which really has a voice, or at least
can produce a sound The Latin name
Of musicus has been given to it on that
account
When it is fOraging about near the
surface of the ground, the numerous
sharp little bristles implanted in its
skin, which enable it to hold on to the
earth, strike against stones and give
out musical sound. This is rather
more like tWanging n Jews harp"
than singing. But any sort Of sound
from these silent, gliding creatures is
