3 WEEEXY ERA. MISCELLANEOUS. Dumb Brutes. t The dumb and irrational animals are possessed of more sense than we are accustomed to think they have. It is said by those who have made the experiment, that young pigs only a lew days old taken, in a close vassal, a considerable distance from the bed, will, when -turned out, in most cases run back in a straight diroction. Bees may be moved for miles du ring the winter season into a strange Death Valley; The The,Beaver (Utah) Enterprise has the following respecting a recent visit to this noted valley: "The Valley of Deatha spot al most as terrible as the prophet's Valley of Dry Bones lies just north of the Mormon road to Carifornia, a region thirty miles long by thirty broad, and surrounded, except at two points, by inaccessible moun tains. It is totally devoid of water and vesretation, and the shadow of i a bird or wild beast never darkens its white glaring sands. The Kan sas Pacific Railroad engineers dis covered it, and also some , papers which showed the fate of the last Montgomery, train, which came south from Salt Lake in 1850, When near most Remarkable Case on Record.

This Is strange, from the fact that there is nothing by which to mark their wanderings. When we think of it, we are astonished that they do not lese their direction and never get home. There are no paths, no roads, bguiu inThSr4Vurn valley, whose iMmtom seem to experience no. inconv promised water. They reached the nience whatever. If we watch closely the movements of most ani mals, we will be convinced that they not only possess more sense, or something that ' resmbles sense, than we are accustomed to attri bute to them ; but that they are in the posession of a something that we do not have. If a man would make half the wanderirics State vs. William Linkhaw. -Indictment for misdemeanor, tried be fore Russell, Judge at Robeson Su perior Court, spring term 1873.

The ox and the ass, by common consent regarded" as tlm ttioit stu pid of tho brute creation, mako this attainment. With brutes general ly, the sense of smell is of the great est imnortance and very highly de- wirtrwvl. With manthe sense of KTiifii i4 of minor importance, dt is but little, if any, knowledge of th external world that ;uan ains thrmmh this sense : but With brutes it is different. By this sense'tllty judge of the character of their .ood nmi drink, ahd by it they protect thfmp1ves from the invasions 'of their foes. The horse and cow in variably smell their food before they eat it. The same is true with regard to their drink. Everyone who has been accustomed to water stock, is aware of this laet. A horse will not taste water in a vessel in which there ha3 been blood, it matters not how clean it may have been .wash ed, so long as the Oder of the blood remains. Gregarious wild animals always travel in a direction facing the wind. Their object seems to be, and no doubt is, that the smell of any foe majr be brought to them by the wind before they approach a dangerous nearness. Every turkey and deer hunter has made this discovery. Many of the inferior animals stem to be able, in some way or other, to discern approaching chan ces in the weather. Crows, before the approach of a warm spell of weather, are seen in large flocks fly ins in a northern direction, and to ward the south before a cold spell. It is said that some birds are able to prognosticate the seasons.
