THE OIUANG OUTAMi. We translate from a late Pari Journal the Following notice of this animal: Many anecdotes are related of the sagacity and intelligence of the voneg Ourar.g Outang from Sumatra, which is now in the Museum of Natural History. He not only possesses great docility-, hut he seems lo c.rderstand many of the feelings and actions of man; he is se;ii'ole f reproof, and sheds tears and pouts when he i scolded. He imitates with great skill what he sees done, and ex en invetvs appropriate means well fitted to atl-iin his end.

when he meets xvith oh-tae' thus for example, when he was e.naMe to ca! h a little dog, more nim'le ihan him- If. who had been given him as h.is rompanion, Jacco, (this is toe name el the ourang cutang) attached hin;s If lothe rope suspended it. the middle o! hi room, and sxviaging, leaped in every di rection, til! he caught the poor dog iiy j the tail.

Ail Ibi is lh,. more sie.-Mi ar. lhat lh-s i animal is, a is xcu Known. k lit verv voung: he i only ten months edd and appears noxv near adult age, in the developemetit of hi faculties. This indicates a short life, and it has been thought limited to txveetv or twentvtive vears. We do not aiiirm tliis fact, since all the zal ofnaluralistshasbeen unable to clear away entirely the doubts which surround the history of this interesting species. SAGACITY OF tKKiS. Many curious yet well authenticated anecdotes, illustrating the wonderful sagacity of the canine race, are related among xxhich the following, which xxehnd in an old Lngiish paper, is not the least leuiatk able. A large New fonndland dog belonged to the Captain of a ship engaged in the tr ade between Jxova Scotia and Greenock. Oa one occasion, the Captain brought from Halifax a beautiful cat xxhich formed a particular acquaintance witSx Rover; and these Ixvo animals of such different natures were almost Inseparable during the passage On arriving at Greenock the cat xvas presented bv the Captain lo a lady of his acquaintance, who isidtil iiv.ru I y half a tmle from the quay, in whose family sh remained for several weeks, and xvas oc casionally visited by her friend and fel low passenger Rover, who seemed not a littb; uispleased at l ie separation. which had taken place between them On the day, however, xvhen the ship was to leave the port for another voxage, the unusual bustlo onboard, gavi Rover a hint of what xva going on aod he decided on his course of conduct without delay. He jumped on shore, made his l ist visit to pu- seiz d her in his teeth, much to her astonishment, and carried her through the streets to the quay, just as the h;p xva hauling off. He made a spring. laved tile gon wale, and fiit lx shipped hi feline friend in goood order and cot dition. in and upon the good ship called the Nancy of Greenock and lh n run lo his master wagging his tail a if entreating that she might be allowed to lemaia on board. lllm Joumnl. Amcsixg scexk. Oi e of Uie Alh tny papers meetioits a c ipita pra joke, which occuncd tie ie lastxvick. A party of Sai-s emigrants were wai ting for the depat tare, ol the canal boat, which xvas to take them to the far xvest. and one of the lemales, in passing about discovered a fine hlazmg fire, xvhicli was burning in the cthce of Ihe agent She made held lo enter, and as the agetit did not molest her, she seated her sell, ami m a,ie herself at homo. Some others of the part) seeing her so comfortably established also en'ered and in t 1...-. ... .. . ii .i . . , . a tew mi.iiiies an i.ie resi crowded In, nnd the office xvas completely filled with them. After warming themselves for a xvhtlc one of them went out, and returned in a few moments with about a dozen ol the males laden xvith their cookie;; uteiisih, and to woik they went, lairlx conxeiling the like intu a kiuhen. ,The agent enjoyed the joke for a while, but in lite end grew tiled t t his visitois and attempted to dislodge them, but in vain. They mi-took his woi ds as further t ourtesx on his part, and thanked him. A gentleman outside who saxv he xvholc, pitied the. agent, and putting his hca I inside the door, saluted the whole batch by proclaiming that the hoat xvas ready, and in a few moments - ihe nllice xvas cleared. They soon discovered the cheat and relumed to their old quarters, hut the door xv;s oeke. and having" no uther resource, they took josiession af.a -Neighboring grocery

where ihey encamped until the boat was in actual readiness.

A Rat-trap. The Richmond Whig describes a rat trap, xxhich seems really curious from the novelty of the principle appiit d. Il is nothing more than a box faced intern -llv with lookingglasses coming down to the level of its

lloor, ar.d with an opening for the rats and Law re u :ehurg from 0 lo 10 o'clock, lo enter, prepared x ith a door to close ; and return from Cincinnati 011 Toesupon them xxhon ihe trappers think j days, Thursdays and Saturdays.
