The Howling of a Do??.!

To hoar a dog howl. in .tho night has : mon Council for the creation of been regarded' of old with the same dis- ' wa"ds to be formed from added

modern times,

There was the usual waste of time in tho Senate on the' 91st tnat., and mure than the average n timber of petty wrangles. MeBr. Dawes aud Cu moron had a dispute about u questloii of ailjourninent; Dawei hod a di3cnasion with Call about tho freedom of voters in MnSRacbiiECtts; Dawes bod a iUenute with Sanlftmry en some trivial lnrtter; mul Wade Uamptou nuA Jfinas gloriflod their Beclious. Nu bitelnossof any kind was done.

.lite as . in mouern times, aiui arises from the belief that the dog can see ihiugs which are not visible to other oye's. In the " Odyssey," when the dogs knew" Athene, they ."fled to the t!ilis far side," and. the dogs of the Morth .were conscious "wenn Hel umgeht," I?nbbi J3ecJuii, in- his "Exposition of the Five -Books of MoscsV i-ays: Qnr Xlabbins of blessed memoiyhave said wlieu the doga howl then comeih the angel of death into the city ; but when the dogs aro at" play then couieth EJias into tJie'city ; " aud in the oxpositiori of another Kabbi : "Our labbiris f of blefised memoiy hiive said, when the angel of death enters into a city the dogs do howl. And I have ;seen it written by one of the disciples of liabbi Jehudo the Just, that upon a time a dog did howL and clapthis tad

bet ween his logs, and wont aside for fear of the angel of death, and somebody coming and kicking the dog to the plaeo from which he had lied, the dog presently died." German peasants believe that if a dog barks looking upward a, recovery may be expected, but if ho looks toward the earth death is certain. In Cornwall the nowlitig of a dog U idways a 'sod signbut "if repeated for three nights, the house against which it howled will soon be in mourning." In Lancashire, where the death-tick is still feared, it is reported as a curious cirenmntance" that the real death-tick must only tick three times on'each occasion. When" we remember that Mr. Darwin says that death-ticks (Anobim (enspllutu?n) are known to answer to eacn other's ticking, tr, as he has personally observed; a tapping noise artinViallj made, it is evident that if a Lancashire nniid is1 disturbed by the three dreal ticks, she should wait for answering ticks, or stimulate them by ail ortiik ciul tick, before allowing her superstitions fears to get the better of hor reo-
