almost their first danger lesson and will
fly in panic of fear, while they pay little
if any attention to dog.
Bindings are given lessons in playing
also: how to play hide and seek among the
leaves and branches; how to race from tree
to tree on wing; how to drop almost per-
pendicularly from a tree-top to the ground,
and how to dart, curve and float.
There are some species that carry these
training lessons so far as the formation of
bands after nesting season. The most
notable instance of this is to be found in
the crow family. They form in companies,
and under the leadership of the oldest and
wisest have a daily drill almost military
in its precision. Each young bird is
taught to know every member of it's own
company and not to attempt attaching it
self to any other. They are taught to
mass in flying and to scatter and hide at
a danger signal. They learn to fly high
on still, clear days or when it is policy to
be out of gun-range, and skirt the hills
and forests when there is strong wind or
the leader is seeking a suitable foraging
place.
When the band feeds, the leader must
not only attend to his own ratiOns but
keep a sharp watch for any form of dam
ger to the whole company and give warn
ing in time for fight. When they have
been particularly harassed on account Of
their depredations the leader frequently
chooses high perch commanding the sur
rounding country and does nothing but
watch. In case a leader fails to report
danger and a member of the band is killed,
he is Immediately set upon by the whole
flock and picked tc death and a new leader
chosen. To such an extent have the crows
carried their system of organization and
education that their reputation for cum
ming and wisdom is worldwide and has
passed into proverb. Young crows are re-
peatedly drilled in these lessons until the
bleary, blue eyes of the babies have
changed into the wise, dark eyes of the
elders, and in case any young bird is stub
born or lacking in capability he is imme-
diately killed.

How Gen. Hampton Lost His Leg.
(New York Tribune.)

Gen. Hampton, who died in Columbia,
). O., last week, was reelected Governor
IN 1873, and just after the election he went
on hunting trip in the forests of his
native State. He and his companions pen
etrated to the interior of a big forest, and
they separated to remain at certain
stands" while the dogs chased the deer
by them. Gov. Hampton dismOunted from
his mule, tied the animal, and walked sew
eral hundred yards away, in order to bet
ter see deer if one came by. He STUN
bied and fell, and one barrel of his shot
gun was accidentally discharged, the en-
tire contents going into his leg at the an
kle. He could not walk, and he was sep
arated from his companions. If they did
not find him, he would bleed to death or
starve. For hours he reclined on the
ground and loaded and discharged his gun
to attract attention. After hours of wait
ing his friends found him. They discOy-
cred that he selected certain marks on
a big tree, and every time he shot he took
deliberate aim. In nearly every instance
his aim was accurate. He was over &c
years old when this occurred, and many
thought he would lose his life, as his leg
had to be amputated. His good constitu-
ton, however, pulled him through, and he
enjoyed many hunts afterward.
