St. Paul for *oly contains a sketch of an original character—Martin Fereol, a celebrated’ pencil taxidermist, who died'at Bourgogne in J 849 at the age of one hundred years. From liis earliest infancy the passion of his life, made itself manifest.r, Disdaining the cord-. paiiionsliip^of s 'clnldfen, Be' spent his leisure hours in exclusive communion with tlie-ani mals of'the village; arid'one of the few occa sions which induced him in after life to relax his taciturnity Wa&cthe, temptation to relate: how his mothdr seriously feared the gift of speech had been refused to him, from the fact of his being unable, at the age of three years, lo articulate a single word, while able at the 1 same time to bark with 'Significant and- omi nous correctness. After ten yearn old he had tiie lo cal ornithology, and was employed by trappers as an adept at calling.; At twelve he deceived the parish with a wren’s nest of his own. con struction, and had earned at sixteen the repu tation of an accomplished bird-staffer. The first half century of his life was passed inhisnative village, where the conscription and the levy, joined to the military vexations of the period arid the entire loss of his sayings,: through an elaborate fraud, contributed to ’fos*. ter in iris heart misantliropic tendencies which ultimately ripened into settled hatred under the smart of an aggravated slight. Though averse to notoriety, and .though sul lenly repelling the advances •• of friendship, he was courted by the admirers of liis art, and consulted by its leading ineml)ers. It was; lie who classed the Egyptian waders for the Mu- . seuiri of Fragile, who restored the speciinens of the. Royal Cabinet at .Athens, and who mounted, with' 1 Itemferi, of Miiestriclit, the eleven egi-ets of the Duke of Parnia. At the age of sixty he accepted an engage ment as conservator of a private museum. The proprietor,, the Baron Kaoul de Lernuizeau, a man of large fortune and scientific tastes, in vited him to take lip liis abode at the chateau, ofleriiig to lodge and entertainhim, without de ducting anything from liis stipend. Tliis gene-, rous proposition, Fereol, dreading to compro mise liis independence, declined without thanks, preferring to reside in an isolated cot tage at the extremity of the village, where he was afterwards joined by iris sister Babotte, Who there lived with him till the day of his death, surviving him by thirteen weeks. His engagement at the chateau procured Fereol, for the rest of his' life, an occupation congenial to his tastes. The museum ’was as .extensive as the design of its proprietor, which was to render it a complete cabinet of Euro pean zoology. Commenced by the Baron’s . father, under the auspices of Buffon. himself, the collection had been enriched, by successive additions, till,' during an' interval of confisca- the museum had been ravaged and dis organized by wanton or sacrilegious bands. “When confided to Fereol’s care, the museum was an assemblage of confusion. Scientific distinctions had been effaced by neglect and insects, dust and exposure had obliterated 1 color, and scarcely a vestige remained'of the artistic labor bestowed on the original arrange ment. • Fereol entered on . his work with passion, and after restoring the few specimens not hope lessly disfigured, he presented the Baron with an endless catalogue of deficiencies, the gradual supply of which was to be thenceforth the pride and lapor of his life. Ten years of dili gence-sufficed, however, to complete his task. With unlimited means at his disposal, and in a position,-through the Baron’s influence, to command effective co-operation, he was able, /at the - expiration'of that period, to regard the ' collection as fairly representing ..the science of the age in respect of European zoology . From that time foitli he became the exclu sive guardian of bis trust, never absenting him self diiring the day, and never departing at night without retaining - the custody of the - keys. The Baron treated him as a spoiled child, encouraged his eccentric genius, and humored his belief in the sovereign importance .. of his art. But if Fereol was an oddity, his two as ;-. - gistonts were still more remarkable characters. - One of these was his pupil, Desire, who had entered the Baron’s service as an infant orphan. A'naturalist by instinct, his delights and ten dencies were sylvan, and the genial character of the work assigned to him at the chateau con verted his daily service into a cask of love. The Baron had placed him at the exclusive dis posal of old Fereol. who, from approval and confidence, had proceeded to tenderness, and ultimately adopted him formally, and be queathed him all his savings. A NOVEL BED-CHAMBER. The attic floor of the chateau was devoted, to the storing of roots and orchard fruits.' The walls were liuhg rbund with herbs and dried, grapes, and layers of pods and seeds were dis posed over all the shelves. The gamering of these stores was Desire’s recreation, and'his care was to maintain them in artistic and in viting order. The whole floor. presented the , . .appearance of a dried garden, the illusion being enhanced by the comforting reality of a crop safely gathered home, and secure from storms and squirrels. To subdue the powerful fra grance from these collections, the windows were kept open night and day, hut the attic floor was not the less Desire’s permanent and elected residence. In one corner was an open doorway,leading to a small bed-room. This • was Desire’s chamber, arranged after his own heart. The bed had been removed, and in its place Was a nest of hay, kept constantly re newed and turned, and refreshed at intervals with clover-heads and scented heath. The window was token away, as being an obstacle to pure, air. The space created was, neverthe less, not left a gaping void; underneath was a trough Idled with earth, from which rose a growth of white thorn, that formed a standing hedge between the apartment and the open ah'. Round the adorn, by way of border, was a continuous line of raised jilank, pierced with f holes and covered with layers of close turf, •enu.iF't.y which were maintained in freshness by con ..-slant andmimsfeattention, i A bench of wild , -flowers in green pate completed the furniture, the room containing nothing else, excepting a garden watering-pot and a china foot-bath filled With.liye fish. The toUet-was else where, Desire holding that manly and healthful ablu tions were best at the pump-trough in the stable-yard. 4 It Was from this leafy observatory that De - - sire noticed patiently unfrequent'and .slow re currihgl'aets that'served to elucidate the con ‘ tests of the .owls and kits. The result appears , in along and most original manuscript, tend ing tO;establish the proposition that bats do oc casionally become the prey of owls.

It is clear in aiiy case'that owls can seize bats easily while the latter are entering holes, or when alighting on walls. On the other ‘ haiid'it appeai'ed ’uiaf Desn'e'liad never been able, with the most attentive watching, to de tect owls in the actual pursuit of bats, nor had he ever discovered the remains of bats in the nest or haunts of owls.

SvoilAN.WnO I’KEFEKRKD BKUTISS TO MAN. . Desire’s veneration for. Martin was tempered with a kind of awe. His regard for the aged Babotte was a feeling of unmingled love. Ba botte w&s no less a character than, her brother Martiri;’ biit 'ofSii originality quite distirictfroin his. What in him was acrimonious bile, inher was undiscririiiriating goodness, arid her sole wrong, to man was an uncompromising prefer ence for brutes. ~ Her intellectual faculties were of the lowest grade, and the reputation of her childhood had been that of a hopeless idiot. She was unable to read on write, andhadnever learned to tell the 1 clock. ' But she ‘ needed neither boriks nof time-piece. She : knew the hours from tiie dial that needs no repairing,and she read from' the statute hook 'ofNature,in no ambiguous characters, that order, thrift, clean liness,are God’s first law. . She lived in? unin- terrupted conversation- With the dumb v beings around her; arid possessed means of - intelligence which were secrets between herself ’ arid’ her coitesporidents. She could ascertain froiri the cat what ailed her kitten, and understood, an application from the cow lor change of pasture. Her parallel lias been imagined by Victor'Hugo in iris roinance of “Conscience l’lnnoceut.” The legion v tongues' of natrire,/ whether ex pressed in cries,“in 1 squeaks or croaks, were as familiar to her as the voice of her pwnbrpther; The birds and frogs gave .her.'warning of the approach of,rain and sunshine, and she. pre pared for change with all the t certainty of uner ring instinct. 1 She lived among the' dumb na tives of the field, unfeared and unavojded. ‘No biid SlfSTSrited lier ’of wrorig,no reptile fled at her approach. In the meadow the magpie re fused to riiove out of her path; on the.plain the sky-lark flew to its nest before her eyes; and in wood the squirrel remained in sight upon the tree which sheltered her. With Hugo’s Inno cent she had brought home clustered bees from forest hives, and with Legduve’s Melicerte had nursed and cured a dying duckling which had been seized and partly devoured by a hog. Had Babotte been free and friendless, she might well have smiled on society and passed her way; Her home was ready found in some secluded wood, her food tiie roots and berries, and lier companions the birds and beasts. But, Martin; her sole relative and guardian, by law, had charge of her person and estate. She had for some time pined under restraint, but had taken strength from liabit, and was for many years her brother’s.' only housekeeper. She ordered liis cottage with superstitious miriute ness, deferred to him with conviction, and rev erenced his profession witli a religious awe. Her aversion to/flesh was inviricible, and her brother’s taste was ho little camiverpus that lie abstained habitually. Babotte’s resources provided ample compensation., Her, larder was ,the open field, and, the forest. her kitchen gar den. She had wild salads for all seasons, and fragrant-herbs in endless and refreshing variety. Martin took all liis sister presented 'him,relying orilier instinct with blind faith. Desire affirms lie; would have eaten a furze bush, if Babotte bad set it before him. Martin’s aiiection for liis sister was pro found, but contained hr it a leaven of grimness. He accepted hersubnliSsiveness as liis due, and notwithstanding, her rare talent.asa.lierbalist, he conceived'himself, removed above her by a gulf of intellectual distance. He nevertheless admitted the reality of her mysterious sympathy witli birds and animals, and he held lier unri valled in the preparation of coffee. A QUARREL ABOUT SPIDERS, He Lad Lad with her but one serious quarrel during the'course of their companionship, and that one >vas 01V the subject 6f spiders. Babotte objected to disturb the spiders after they had once spun their >vebs and become fairly domi ciled in the apartment., She argued they were not like foul parasites that attack your sub stance or annoy your, person,iand that to re move them - witiibutTriotive^was r a selfish abuse - - of power. To. the plea of cleanliness slie : re plied that tlie spiders themselves were not in herently dirty, and that slie kept the webs dean-by dusting them-with the.parlor bellows. - Refuted by Martin, she. submitted hqr defence to the abbe, who.treated it as a perverse whim, and the spiders were condemned accordingly. lt was not. that Martin at all shared the re pugnances shown in general to those most re pulsive insects. Spiders made no exception to the universality of his taste for animals, and his apology for their life and usefulness was a point of standing issue between himself and the Abbe Gassendi. The abbe admitted much, hut confessed he could imagine a Paradise complete without spiders. It was true,'lie. said, they had r their merits, like all created beings. Though it was quite false that they exhaled noxious vapors, it was certain they destroyed great quantities of flies in places where birds had no access. They were invalu able in sultry summers, when the flies greatly plagued the poor, infecting their dwellings,' spoiling their food, and buzzing them out of their senses. He recognized further in spiders three distinct qualities—two positive and one negative; they were diligent and patient, and not bloodthirsty. They killed for hunger hut. did not massacre for rage like stoats and mar tens. It might be said the spiders were less destructive than their webs, which were often filled with flies untouched; and these webs supplied the swallows when insects in the air were scarce. Sometimes, also, tlie fly strug gled through the net, and, falling to the ground, ■ became food for beetles ;for nothing is lost in nature’s careful system. -■ Still, it was difficult to be human and not de test tlie spider. He passed by common con sent as the emblem of a cruel fatality. Poets used him as the extreme term of an odi ous contrast, and the most impartial writers said unpleasant tilings of him. Voltaire as signed him the standing epithet of execrable. Tlie English poet Thomson described him as a . villain, and Boileau denounced him as the as sassin with six legs, Bqjdmorvit was truCi rey fers to him advantageously; but -'tliis rls 'appla-. rently by way of apology for his being, found in kings’ palaces, which Solomon does not pre tend are-any 1 the better; for liis presence. It was true also that etymologists wrote of spiders •with great complacency; but with them the eulogy was professional, and passed for noth-' mg; there were also men who wrote compla cently on virulent pustules, of described with rapture a well-developecTpimple on tlie nose.: I In fact, no doctrine was too untenable for das- • perate or eccentric apologists. Bahotte’-s latest wish was to be eaten by ants, and .she had secretly enjoined Desire to convey her corpse immediately after her death into the . 1 forest, and lay it between two ant-hills in ;a< particular spot. Martin had at this: time lost all consciousness, and Was being gradually ex tinguished by extreme old age. He died in his " hundredth ycaiyahd! in his native that effect he had expressed some'years before .to the Baron’s family. Babotte, though twenty yearn younger, survived liilii only by a few. weeks. On tlie day following that on which she died her body was nowliere to he found. An inquiry was forthwith instituted to unravel the mystery, but THE P£IUY#PNING BULLETIN—PHILADELPHIA, TUESDA- 'thdjcorninissioii, after quest, wps "criiripeMed to sepanateWithont result.*'■_Sqmej -'weela afterwards the sMetririr perfectly; wffiteMnd dfvsey|ry par- Itiele of the flesh liaving;feeiy:|riearily exacted' by,the ants.

William is, by our modern estimates,, tiie original “ English geptlemim.!’ According to the prejudiced, though contemporary chroni cles, lie was “ tiie fatlier of the wild deer,” one who “ loved the wild beasts as if lie were their father;” liis love being shown by his destroy ing fiftydiurclies arid exterininatirig numerous villages tliat the deer might have a pleasant ■ home; also by ordering tliat whoever should kill a hart should have his eyes-put out, similar pro tection being afforded the hares. , OIPSIESIN THENEAV FOEEST—TnEinraAEECT. Their normal wprk is, since the oppressive laws against pilfering, the ' making of baskets and general wicker-work ; and on nearly every silent road orie may meet their wagons loaded with such supplies. The old, Acts of Parluv ment call them Egyptians: to the natural eye they' are half-naked Hindoos, of a different tribe to the gipsies of Cornwall and Devonshire. They speak the mysterious Romany dialect. A friend of mine,who lives nehr the New Forest, wrote in a paper in .Fraser last year that he had consulted the postman of the district, who said that feW ’pf the gipsies could read, and they rarely received -letters; they pick up many pen nies by begging and fortune-telling; they have no religion; but his main puzzle was what they do with their dead, as he had ‘never heard Of a dead gipsy. They have mixed a great deal with the other foresters, • and the latter are mainly the absorbed. He reports also thatthe dialect of the Forest is ungainly, harsh, drawl ing, and spoken mainly'With the teeth shut. Here is a specimen; “Ilev ’ee zeen t’ fox, Jurge? they’se lost he, I bet!”—“Na-a-a! I zeed en goo into vnzz, (i. e., furze) at t’ earner o’ tliic (this) ’ood.”—“Big un?”—“Ya-a-as!” — “Where hist gwihe now, then?”—“Whoam: thee’s hetterr come with I.? : The “r” has not a burr, hut a’ thin, shtiiing sound. They haye a good many; wbrds which are not usual in book-Englisli, and some of them expressive; for example—-“ilisky,” small, like small' fain; “louster,” noise; confusion; “shunma]rin,”, slovchy, careless, untidy; “wivvery,” giddy, as when the - head swims ; “mokins”. .are coarse gaiters; “hum water’’ is a cordial with mint in it. They call the bog-myrtle or sweet-gale the “gold-withy,” and the white-beam “lioar witliy.” ' That which strikes;-the,: American, whose country hardly furnishes what can be called a dialect, is the ‘ wild misuse of pronouns. . One may often read on the grave-stones of the Forest: * . , TIIK KOKES-jC' “Him shall never come, again to we, ■ ■ But us shall surely one day go to he.” “HER MAJEKTY’B FAVORITE HIND.” The hunting of those times must be only a mock hunting at best, as compared with that once witnessed ;in the old forests. Wretched harts and hindsinre kept in parks and stalls, to be brought out 1 now and then and chased 1 on their feeble flight until they fall before the dogs,; which inflict a few wounds, to be thert'dfiven off. The hart thus pursued is kept until its wounds heal, when it is again subjected to a similar torture. If royalty could do any wrong the amiable Queen of England would be prose cuted to-inorrow by the Society for the Preven tion of Cruelty to Animals,for of all animals that which has been most frequently and cruelly tortured by repeated hunting and wounding is “Her Majesty’s favorite hind.” The Queen, of course, never saw one of her stag-hounds or binds, but the miserable conventionality which presumes that hunting is the favorite ' amuse ment of English royalty might surely attract the attention of a government sufliciently, ad vanced to have such a sturdy Quaker, as John Bright in it. Nevertheless,’ a majority of: the House of Commons would probably vote, even now, that the abolition-of the game laws, the cessation of hunting, etc., would injuriously af fect the British Constitution. And it is yyell known that Lord / Palmerston (who in the House defended prize-fighting) was indebted for much of the confidence he received . . .from both Whigs and Tories to his love of fox-hunt ing; When Jehn Bright was appointed to 1 of fice, an aged Whig was heard to sigh : : “Well, at arty rate, they say lie catches a salmon splen i dully!” With an unerring instinct, he bad, in deed, hit upon the statesman’s one weakness. I.ACK OF DARING IN MODERN FIELD SPORTS. ’’ Now-and then’ one may. find certain' regions in Great Britain where hunting seems to be liiirdly 1 art anachronism; where it still tile serious pursuit; of the poor, and the natural exercise of the wealthy. One is thankful to believe that it saves some young squires , and noblemen from the wreck of life which besets those'who leave tlieir estates for the vices of London and tlie villainies of the turf. But, ■ after all is said, the hunting squire is by no 1 , means aioyely character, and the month Of sport is very apt to be also a montli of dissip.v tion. The element of daring having gone,out, of the hunt, has been followed by the spirit of the genuine old English huntsman. You will, now and then hear of some old fellow, who lias fled bald to break his bones, and those of his friends,’by erecting bush heaps,-fences, etc.', along the woods. I saw in Wales the portrait of a man who finally killed himself by his ef ' forts to reimpart danger to the hunt, and his memoiy was held in much veneratlort; but as the forests shrink, and steam honeycombs the country, the animals become tame,and hunting excitement an affectation. iStesentiy ftfie§ve-’ i i' - lotts&tfS%ill 5 striftiiiaii|S«ie w|U Be (Stopped juptcSpake cdiead'food ior .tie HjuHion;NJife ajjq ofehivalry ,SvJU no i lonj;6r revisit BJaytp BnW'discdler the ■''beaiitiea and appropriate sports of their own age. • %%6mitivEbltpsb"»r jtnffnHt'7,l(B6o: " To Meteorological Observers along the Line of As the United States Naval Observatory is to liave all, its available ; force iii the field, expecting to contribute.
