They can also determine whether it be fc solitary object or a'continuous fence, wheth er a ‘close fence or an open one and sometimes whether a wooden fej^ce, a stone wall or a hedge. None of the five senses has any thing to do with this perceptive power, but the impressions are made, so the blind declare, on the skin of their faces and by the face transmitted to the brain. This ex traordinary sense has been called “ facial perception.” The presence of a fog interferes with facial per ception, and it makes the impres sions faint and untrustworthy. Darkness, however, is declared to be no impediment. A noise that distracts the attention interferes with the impressions. Many blind persons possess the power, as they pass along the street, of distinguish ing shops from private houses ana of doors from windows, if the win dows consist o f a number o f panes and not of a single sheet of glass. A remarkable fact bearing on the subject of an extraordinary sense is mentioned by W. H. Levy, himself blind. A naturalist extracted the es of several bats and covered e empty sockets with bits of leather. In this condition the bats flew about a room, avoiding the sides and flying out of the door without touching the doorcase. In flying through a sewer that made a right angle they turned at the proper point. They flew through threads suspended from the ceiling without touching them, though they were only far enough apart to ad mit the passage of the bats’ extend ed wings.— New York Press.
