. Wild fowl shooting. Containing scientific and practical descriptions of wild fowl: their resorts, habits, flights and the most successful method of hunting them . arrives at the dock, too late, as the vessel is far fromshore. What he then does is depicted in these beauti-ful lines : He has strained the rope which bound him, and at last has broken freeToo late ! for there the steamer bears his master out to is but a dog, and yet he has tlie yearnings of Ills kind,And liis heart is fairly breaking, that he is left behind. With an effort he might reach him, if he struggles with a will ; The master has forgotten, but the dog remembers still, Plunge, the way is long and weary, and the distance grows more wide,But he has one hope to guide him, just to reach his masters side. Struggling, ever struggling onward, though the water beats him back,Struggling while his heart is failing, in the steamers silver track;Struggling with a last vain effort ; struggling till his strength is eone ; , So theblue close over him, and the twilight hastens on.
