The alarm was at once given, the drag-net procured, and the pike was INSTINCT AND REASON IN DOGS, ETC. 235 captured with the remains of some of the yomig fowl in his stomach. Now in this fact reason and instinct clash ; and there is, that I can see, no definite spot at which the one ends and the other begins. Instinct and appetite induce a voracious monster, the pike, to swim on and eat any little thing he sees alive upon the water; but motive of a superior grade, allied to reason, induces him ...to approach and lie in wait by a coop, in which reason, not instinct, has taught him the prey he of late has had, and is in quest of, lives. The hound and dogs of all kinds, like the carrier pigeon, possess the knowledge of how to make, in the straightest and shortest way for the house or kennel from which they have been taken. The pigeon has no marks in the air to guide his flight ; and the hound or dog, in going the shortest way to his former home, needs no path nor road to guide him. If the most direct way lies over moors, fields, and across rivers, he looks not for a beaten track nor bridge^ but proceeds to where he desires to go with the most unerring and instinctive precision.
