INTELLIGENCE OF PLANTS.
They Are Endowed with Sort of Sense
by Which Their Movements
Are Gukded.

Prof. Shaler, of Harvard university,
LIS of the opinion that plants are pos
sessed of intelligence that serves the
purpose of self-protectfon and self
qualification to very considerable de-
gree. Recently after discussing the au-
tomato observed in growing things he
said:
I'VE may accept the statement that
our, higher intelligence is but the illu-
minated summit of mans nature as true,
and extend it by the observation that
intelligence is normally unconscious,
and appears as conscious only after in
fancy, in our waking hours, and not al
ways then" In summing up the pro-
fessor uses the following sentences:
Looking toward the organic world in
the manner above suggested, seeing that
an unprecedented view of life affords no
warrant for the notion that automata
anywhere exist, tracing as we may down
to the lowest grade of the animal series
what is fair evidence of actions which
we have to believe to be guided by some
form OF intelligence, seeing that there is
reason to conclude that plants are de-
rived from the same primitive stock as
animals, we are in no condition to say
that intelligence cannot exist amng
them. In fact, all that we can discern
supports the view that throughout the
organic realm the intelligence that finds
its fullest expression in man is every
where at work.

Federal shells had preached them dur
ing the bombardment, but the enemy
knocked them down with hand gre
nades, bricks and fireballs.
The Confederates continually hailed
the assailants to surrender. Williams
defiantIy refused, but Lieutenant Brad
ford was mortally wounded in landing
and some of his men called out that
they surrendered The Confederates
ordered Bradford's men to pass around
to a breach in the walls and come in
side. In doing SO they passed through
Williams men, and the lieutenant or
dered them to stay outside. Incensed
at that the enemy redoubled their eff
forts to conquer the party, and seeing
that he would lose the last man in a
hopeless fight Williams surrendered.
sThe Confederates captured thirteen Of
ficers and 1O2 men. The spoils were
four boats and three flags, one Of the
standards being the flag hauled down
by Major Anderson in 1861. In antici-
patton of the recapture of Sumter the
original flag had been intrusted to the
feet to replace over the fort. Among
the lfeutenants in the affair were Remey
and +. w. Bunce, both of whom later
rose to the rank of admiral.
Admiral Dahlgren watched the move
ment from boat in the distance, and
he said that ''Moultrie fired like devil,
the shells breaking around me and
screaming in chorus" If it was hot
for him it was still hotter where shells
were supplemented with canister and
hand grenades. 1t was the navy's only
attempt to storm the fort, but the army
tried it later and retired after drawing
the fire of the garrison. On the Sth of
September the army troops did not
leave their boats, but lay by waiting to
see how the navy detachment Jared.
General Beauregard said that the
garrison in Sumter stood by the guns
the night of the attack with the lock
strings in hand. He said that the sud
denness of the fire and it's rapidity pre-
vented the capture of Stevens entire
force-for had they been allowed to
land before tie guns opened they would
all have shared the fate of Williams
men. The Confederates in Fort Sumter
claimed that the attack was repulsed
by 800 men. Fort Sumter held out I'M
til Sherman's army marched up in the
rear in February, 1865. ....~ ,.

Electric Light In bathrooms.

The using of electric light in bath
rooms, either public or private, SO it
is asserted by an English engineer.
is dangerous in many cases. Writing
to the Government Gazette, he saws
that "the electric light switches most
usually employed have brass covers
and brass knobs, and it is quite pos
sible that this metal work may be
in unsupported contact with the cleo
trio supply wires. In such a case a
person standing on dry wooden
floor. and using the switch, would not
notice any defect. but anyone in the
act of taking bath, or standing with
bare feet on wet or metallic floor,
and attempting to turn on the light,
would receive a very severe shock,
which would probably prove fatal even
at the comparatively low pressure OF
2s0 volts 2

old flag flying over them, for they went
In as prisoners of war. A force of $50

with a warm welcome and killed,
wounded and captured about one-third
of the aSSailants.

and the fall of that stronghold raised
the cry in the besieging army and
navy, ttOn to Charleston!" During the

up toward the fort to reconnoiter. She
grounded under the fire of the Confed-
crate guns and the Patapsco and Lee
high went to her aid. The Patapseo
dashed up to within $50 yards~of Sum-

When the report of Captain Thomas
H. Stevens, commander of the Pataps-
co, reached Admiral Dahlgren he de-
cided TO send boat party to storm the

lead it. Stevens asked to be excused
because he didn't believe he could sue
