He sings morning and evening like most other birds, at mid day he sings also. Astrokoof the bell is heard, a pause of a minute ensues; second tinkling, and a pause of the same duration is repeated, finally a third ringing, followed by a silence of six or eight minutes.

War.?A soldier in active service has published a little unpretending volume, in which ho describes the effects of shot in tho field of battle: "You enn form no idea of the storm of balls and shells which crossed each other in theirdeadlycourse. Before and around the spot on which Field Marshal Radetzky was standing, the heavy sixteen-pound shots ploughed up the ground, tracing in one place a deep furrow, and cutting down a tree like stubble in another* It is remarkable how each kind of missile has its own characteristic. There is the tremulous howl of the large round shot, the whistle of the musket-ball, hiss of the. shell, like that of the Catherine wheel firework, and then its detonating as it bursts. Of these last, many which fell amongst us missed fire, and many exploded harm less in the air- but where one fell and did its office the effect was dreadful. One Such ut.uck an officer in the breast?exploded at the instant,struck down a man to the I right and left, and cut oil tlio upper part of the officer's body, in suoh a fashion that the frighteued horse galloped oft witll the feet of the corjise in the stirrups.

' leon from Ham.?When his deter- \ nithaliftn' was made, he set about instant preparations to carry it out.? i After long cqinpluint, the government tardily cousented to make some repairs in his uncomfortable quarters, and on hearing the fact that workmen were about visiting the fortress for that purposd, the ingenious tho't struck the l'rince to array himself in similar apparel; as offering Ihp easi-. I est, and apparently most' certain mode of escape. On the day selected for his eventful experiment he rose early, and began at once to disguise himself in tlie rude materials which his faithful follower, Theilm, had duly prepared. Disencumbering himself of his whiskers and mpustache, he clothed himself in a capacious red wig, blue'smock frock, a pair of corduroys, much the wcrse lor wear, and added to his height by a huge, pair of wooden sabots. This done, he was ready to descend, but the first difficulty was, to disarm the vigilance of the two jailers at the door below. This was effected by his physician, l)r. Conneau, inviting one into his room for a moment, whilst Uharles J Delim occupied the other. The Prince, carrying a hoard on his shoulder, which he employed still further to conceal his face, made his way undisturbed into the court yard of the citadel. Now began the real thinners he had to contend with ?to elude the attention of the officers on guard; to escape the observation of sentinels; to pass the porter's lodge unchallenged; to clear in safely the drawbridge, and the two grau&l portals of the Chateau?these offerell a s,eries of risks and encounters enough to chill the stouti-st heart.?

An o [finer neai* liy, reading a letter, looked up, and regarding him, made sonie commentary on his awkwardness. The Prince, to hide his confusion, stooged to pick up tile fragments. Recovering himself insthntly, he pushed ou, and getting by the porter's wicket, made his way through the first gate,! over the bridge, and now he was bei/nnrl tli? connnrl ffnfn Mn Kpnoflm/1 J ??IV UVWV/UM JLJLV* Ml \/(lVl?VU freer, and could with effort only restrain himself from running, so impatient was he to avoid the chance of further accident. His presentiments were well founded; for whilst stiil within the view of all, he heard some workmen hallooing after him, and turning, observed, to his horror, they were walking briskly towards him. It was a moment of dreadful suspense. Not knowing what course to take, lie stood still, apparently unconcerned, when, to his inexpressible relief, one of the men, now close upon him, cried out, "Oh, it is only Pierre!1 and satisfied that they recognised a comrade, the whole party wheeled about and went off. '1 he tribulations of the Prince were not yet over; for his dog having slipped away from his keeper, came narKin^and yelling after him. His signs el joy were so manifest, that had it been observed, detection would have been infallible. The Princev'in a sharp undertone, ordered the dog off, and, as it conscious ot Ins master's danger, Iho intelligent brute instantly obeyed. In a few minutes j more, the appointed spot was reach- j ed, where Thcllin was anxiously awaiting, with a cabriolet and fast horse, and the Prince leaping in, fled with all possible speed on the high road to Belgium. A.ftcr rapid relays they arrived without incident at the railway station where pursuit was no longer to he apprehended. Not long af(er the Prince had left his room, the.jcommaudant came to make his usual njorning visit, and was received by Dr. Conneau, who informed him that the Prince was confinetj to his bed bv indisposition. Expressing hi? regrets, he went away, and returned as customary in the evening, when the same excuse was repeated. This time, however, the wary oflieer demanded as his,right, a view oft|io Prince s' person, though nniittnnali/nnnrisnd thai lie was sound op.
