Jack the Pelican.
A correspondent of laitd and IPiier writes
that paper as follows: I think some account of
Jack the Pelican, by many degrees the oldest
inhabitant of tie Zoological GarJens In Dab In,
who lately died there at the ripe age of fllty
years, as it is a well-authenticated instance of
the longevity of birds under favorable circum
stances, will be interesting to general readers.
This lino specimen of the ttlbe of "Anser"
(Llnnams) was brought lo the gardens by
a Mr. Egan, shoitly after their original
foundation, in the year 1831, and was then
.quite full grown, and supposed to bo seven or
eight years old; nnd as ho lived and flourished
there more then forty. two years, his age at his
late lamented domito mnst have closely ap
proached, if not fully reached, tbo half-century.
Jack wns generally about tho first specimen
which was Introduced, or rather introduced
hlmsolf, to the notice of visitors, us he was sel
dom shut up in a cage, but walked or waddled
about where ho plensod, usually on the green
lawn Bloplng dowu to tho lake, on which tho
waterfowl live; and was oftou rather an object
of terror to juveniles nnd the ladles in charge,
having at times a trick of opening his groat
beak, and snapping at them as they passed,
quite harmlessly however, although the writer
of this notice remembers n Bmart scratch re
ceived by him in a tender part, and through a
pair of wblterussetducka, when broakfastiug in
a tent in tho grounds many years ago, nnd which
was inflicted by tho sharp nook on tho point of
tho upper mandible.
Ilo usually treated strangers with foverclgn
contempt, hardly designing to waddlo out of
their toad; but when seizod, and his beak
opened to show bis ell ft tongue which lay at the
pouch under the bill, his eye, usually a splendid
ruby or rathor carbuncle color, got red us a coal
with anger at the indignity. Ills plumage was
always In tho most beautiful order and the
most brilliant whlto, o:cept about tho head,
whero tho soft downy hackles immucd a pinky
hue. Curiously enough, he nover went into
tho water, except occasionally for tbo purposes
tf ablution, when he would duck aud wash
himself nil over; then, returning to land,
squeeze the water out of his feathers with his
bill, just as a washerwoman docs her clothes,
and then stand In tho sun to dry; but ho never
seomod to swim for pleasure or to fish, in which
rospoctsho differed from Iho thrco junior mem
bers of bis tiibo also located in the gardens,
who spent their whole time In tho wator or
perched on the little artificial islot in the lake,
nud rarely camo to land, except to bo fed, being
with difficulty caught when desired to bd caged
for tho winter, for fear of tho cold.
Jack treateel these juveniles with, if possible,
groater contempt than human boys nnd girls,
and nover nppearod to tako the slightest notice
of nor to recogulzo his brethren from tho other
water fowl iu the garden. Another peculiarity
of his was that ho would never touch any food
but fish, although it is the wise practice of the
elover and carelul curator, Mr. Garter, if post!
bio to educate all bis flock not to be too parti
cular, in caso of necessity. This practice might
wjseiy be introduced into mnny seminaries for
oung persons of tho present day. Tho others
soon Toarnt lo eat ami relish horseflesh on oc
ciiflon, but Jack stood out staunchly, and fish,
and fish only, ho would have, at whatover cost,
nil iittemps at deoi iviug him being in vain eve n

mouio twouty inches from tho ground to the top
of his back, and was about the samo across
whon his w lugs were folded; wbon open they
would stretch fully teu feet from tip to tip,

whon he first enme, nnd until Mr. Eaan's
death, It was most absurd to seo tho way ho
attached himself to him, tunning to meet tiiu
on arrival at tho gate, aud nover leaving his
foot whllo in tho garden, following as close to

Ann. lMebardt has sought an expeditious
method of determining the quality of drinking
water, and recommends the use of the micros.
cope in detecting salts in solution by their crys
talline form. For this purpose, a few drops of
the water under examination aie evaporated on
a flip of glass either at a high or low tempera
ture, and the forms of crystals obtained, com
pares! with those of known salts dissolved in
water, and reerytUllized in the same manner.
In this way one can detect with ditnatch and
certainty, common salt, calo spar, gypsum,
niter, etc, and to a certain extent the relative
quantities present.
