to be lachrymose, and the same
holds in the case of certain monkeys.
Sparrman states the elephant sheds
tears when wounded or when it
perceiyes that 4 can not escape.
Aquatic animals too, it appears, are
able to weep. Thus, many authorities
agree, dolphins at the moment Of
death draw deep sigh and shed
tears abundantly. A young female
seal was observed to weep when
leased by a sailor st. Hilaire and
Culver recount on the authority Of
the Malays, that when a young du-
dong Is captured the mother is sure
to be taken also The little ones
then cry out and shed tears. These
tears are collected with great care
by the Malays and are preserved as
a charm that is certain % render
a lovers affection lasting.-Ex.
