SINGULAR INSTANCE OF CANINE SAGACITY.I witnessed recently a curiuu instance of wolfish generalship that interested me much, anil which, in my humble opinion, goes fur to prove that animals are endowed, to a certuin extent wilh reasoning faculties, and have means of communicating their ideas to each other.' I was, as usual, scanning the horizon with my telescope at day break, to see if any game was in sight I had discovered a small herd of antelope feeding on a field from whence the crop had been lately removed, and was abput to tithe the gloss from mir eye for the purpose of reconnoitcring the ground when, in a remote corner of the field, concealed from the antelope by a few intervening bushes, I faintly discerned in the pray twiliirht, a pack of six wolves. seated on their hind-quarters like dogs, and appa rently in deep consultation. It appeared evident that, like myself, they wanted venison, and had some design upon the antelope; and, being curious to witness the mode of proceeding adopted by these four-legged poachers, I determined to watch thoir motions. I accordingly dismounted, leavinff tnv horse in chnrce of the sowar; and creeping as near the scene of action as I could without being discovered, concealed mysrii Demnd a bush. Ilavin? apparently decided on their nlnn of attack. the wolves separated; one remaining stalionary, and the other five creeping cautiously round the edge of the field, like setters drawing on a very shy covey of birds. In this manner they surrounded the unsuspecting herd, one wolf lying down at each corner of the field, and the filth creeping silently towards the centre of it, where he concealed himself in a deep furrow. The sixth wolf, which had not yet moved, now started from his hiding-place, and made a dash at the antelope. The graceful creatures, confident in matchless speed, tossed their heads, as if in disdain, and started off in a succession of Hying bounds that soon left their pursuer fur behind, lint no sooner did they approach Ihe edge of the field than one of the crouching wolves started up, turned them, and chased them in contrary direction, while his panling accomplice lay down in his place to recover wind for a fresh burst. Again the bounding herd dashed across the plain. hoping to escape on the opposite side; but here they were once more headed by one ol tne cralty savages, who, in his turn, took up the chose, and coursed them till relieved by a fresh hand from an opposite quarter. In this manner, the persecuted animals were driven from side to side, and from corner to corner, a fresh assailant heading them at every turn, till they appeared perfectly stupified with fuar, and crowding together like frightened sheep, began to wheel round in diminishing circles. All this time the wolf, wnich lay concealed in the furrow, near the centre of the field, had never moved, although the antelope had fiasjed and re-passed within a few feet of him, and iad, perhaps, even jumped over him; his time for action had not yet arrived. It now became evident lhat the unfortunate antelope must soon be tired out, when it appeared probable that the surrounding wolves would have made a combined attack and driven the terrified herd toward the centre of the field, where the wolf who bad hitherto been lying in reserve, would have sprung up iu the midst of them, and secured at least one victim. I, however, did not allow matters to proceed so far I was satisfied with what I had seen, and resolved to turn the lablcs on my friends the wolves, by making a slight change in the last act of the tragedy, which was now fust approaching. Accordingly, just as the antelope appeared to be driven to a stand still. I out a stoo to further proceedings on the part of their ravenous assailants, by sending a rifle bullet through the body of we nearest skulker, who incontinently gave up the ghost; and his sagacious companions seeing that their game was up, now that "the man with the gun" had taken a hand, made precipitate retreat, leaving me undisputed master of the field. I might easily have brought down an antelope with my second bar- NUMBER 167. fcl for the poor things appeared stupified with fear but after having so fur espoused their cause, I felt it would be treachery on my part to avail myself of this advantage, and accordingly allowed thera to depart in peace. And now, lot me ask the philosophic reader, was it mere instinct, or was it a certain power of combining ideas, and drawing inferences, that enabled a pack of wolves to plan the combined andwell-ar-ranired attack I have attempted to describe? We know that the natural instinct of the wolf prompts these animals to assemble in packs, aud hunt down their prey, either by scent or by speed of foot, and, as long as this succeeds, no other expedient is icsuriuu iu. 1 nave no aouot mat, in the first instance, the very wolves I saw this morning, had attempted to hunt down antelopes in tho usual manner. Dallied, however, in the chase, instinct was at fault, and the wolf, if left solely to its blind guidance, must, in the absence of other gamo, have perished. But hunger, that proverbial sharpener of the human wits, oppears also to call forth certain dormant reasoning fuculties in the animal, which, under ordinary circumstances, might never have been developed. The wolf, finding that instinct has deceived him, refuses to be longer guided by a blind impulse, and begins for the first time to think. He abandons the naturnl habits of his race, and in concert with hia fellow wolves, plans and executes an ingenious stratagem, worthy of the reasoning powers of man himself; a complicated manoeuvre, not only arguing considerable sagacity on the part of individuals, but implying that a mutual understanding exists among the performers, which it appears to me can only be accounted for on the supposition that animals possess some power unknown to us, of communicating their itleas lo each other.

I have seen and heard much of an Italian love of music, but nothing illustrating it so forcibly as an incident that occurred last evening at the opera. In the midst of one of the scenes, a man in the pit near the orchestra was suddenly seized with convulsions. His limbs stiffened; his eyes became set in his head, and stood wide open, staring at the ceiling like the eyes of a corpse ; while low and agonizing groans broke from his struggling bosom. The prima donna came forward at that moment, but seeing this livid, deuth-slamped face before her, suddenly stopped, with a tragic look and start, that for once was perfectly natural. She tnrnod tn iIia h natj-oi n imp arid rvxi ttaA out the frightful spectacle. He also started back in uorror, arm ine prospect was that the opera would terminate on tho spot; but the scene that was just opening wns the one in which the prima donna was to make her great effort, and around which the whole interest of the play was gathered, and the spectators were determined not to be disappointed because one man was dying, and so shouted, "go on ! go on !" Clara Novello gave another look towards the groaning man, whose whole aspect was enough to freeze the blood, and then started off in her part. But the dying man grew worse and woise, and finally sprung bolt upright in his seat. A person sitting behind him all-absorbed in the music, immediately placed his hands on his shoulders, pressed him down again, and held him firmly in his place. There he sat, pinioned fast, with his pale, corpselike face upturned, in the midst of that gay assemblage, and the foam rolling over his hps, while the braying of trumpets, and the voice of the singer, drowned the groans that were rending his bosom.

As it ended, the house rang with applause, and the man who had held down the poor dying creature could contain his ccstacy no longer, and lifting his hands from his shoulders, clapped them rapidly together three or four times, crying out over the ears of the dying man, "Brava, bra-?a!" and then hurriedly placing them back again to prevent his springing up, in his convulsive throes. It was a perlectly maddenning spectacle, and the music jarred on the chords of my heart like the blows ol a hammer. But the song was ended, the effect secured, and so the spectators could attend to the sufferer in their midst. The gens d'armes entered, and carried him sneeclilnsa ami lifnlo.o ... r the theatre.

The City Council last night unanimously issued the bonds of the city to the rail road company for $100,000. The small liens which had previously been created by debts on the road, were removed by release; so that the city now holds the first lien on the road for the amount of her debt It is therefore beyond doubt secure. The road will in a very short time be finished to Greenfield, 5 miles north of the present terminus. Much of the grading is finished to Xenia, and ws doubt not the Company will take energetic measures to finish the whole immediately. A new locomotive is now constructing, and the business is daily in-creating. Cincinnati Gazttte. Whig National Convention.
