After the lapse of another month, the original ray fell to pieces, leaving the newly formed body sur- rounded only by the four newly developed rays. This was a singular accident, as by it the animal became once more symmetrical and all young again ; nothing RENOVATION OF MUTILATED STAR-FISHES. 207 remained disproportionate or offensive to the eye, and the renovated Star-fish entered vigorously upon its new career. From the aversion of the fishermen to all sorts of star-fish, both large and smal...l, they were formerly wont to rend them asunder, and commit their lace- rated bodies to the waves with what result the reader can easily imagine. It is said that they are now grown wiser, and on discovering their purpose to be defeated by the extraordinary reproductive energies of their victims, are content to cast them on the shore, and leave them there to perish. Certainly their old plan of tearing every Cross-fish they got hold of into two or three pieces, each capable of regenerating all its missing parts, was anything but a way to dimi- nish their numbers.
