The noise and disagreeable odour arising from the bull-frogs and other reptiles that infest the swamp opposite the village at night, filled the air, and rendered it impossible for me to sleep.

The day following, I visited the nearest point from which the cries were heard, but I could discern no sign of the sufferer, nor could I even trace footmarks; this, however, is not remarkable, as they would speedily be obliterated by the many reptiles nurtured in the morass.

A BOOK OF REPTILES.

[reptiles] alligator, crocodile; saurian; dinosaur (extinct); snake, serpent, viper, eft; asp, aspick^. [amphibians] frog, toad.

The second procession is of reptiles, led by the snail; the third, the smaller quadrupeds, led by four rats, followed desperately close (but of course under the white flag) by two cats; while the fourthall sorts and conditions of birdsstreams through the air.

The sutures in the skulls of young mammals have been advanced as a beautiful adaptation for aiding parturition, and no doubt they facilitate or may be indispensable for this act; but as sutures occur in the skulls of young birds and reptiles, which have only to escape from a broken egg, we may infer that this structure has arisen from the laws of growth, and has been taken advantage of in the parturition of the higher animals.

The reptiles are of another make.

If the call were that of businessof any of the great perilous affairs he handled like a snake-charmer spinning the deadly reptiles about his headshe knew she would drop from his life like a loosened leaf.

No. Had Cousin Benedict devoted himself to the study of the vertebrates, mammals, birds, reptiles, and fishes?

4. The boy had an unconquerable fear of reptiles which no reasoning could overcome.

In the Reptiles, for instance, there are two groups,those devoid of scales, with naked skin, laying numerous eggs, but hatching their young in an imperfect state, and the Scaly Reptiles, which lay comparatively few eggs, but whose young, when hatched, are completely developed, and undergo no subsequent metamorphosis.

Compare, for instance, the Serpents among the Scaly Reptiles with the Caecilians among the Naked Reptiles.

Above the Lizards and Salamanders, highest in the class of Reptiles, stand two other collateral types,the Turtles at the head of the Scaly Reptiles, the Toads and Frogs at the Lead of the Naked Reptiles.

But there are Turtles with a soft covering, and there are some Toads with a hard shield over the head and neck at least, and both groups are alike distinguished by the shortness and breadth of the body and by the greater development of the limbs as compared with the lower Reptiles.

The two series may thus be contrasted: Naked Reptiles.

Scaly Reptiles.

Among Reptiles, we find, for instance, that the Genera of our fresh-water Turtles differ from each other in the cut of their bill, in the arrangement of their scales, in the form of their claws, etc.

A farther analysis of other Genera would show us that among Birds, Reptiles, Fishes, and, in fact, throughout the Animal Kingdom, Species of well-defined natural Genera differ in the same way.

Newfoundland, for its verdure, the absence of reptiles, and its Irish inhabitants, was called at this time "Transatlantic Ireland", and Bonnycastle says that more than one half of the population was Irish.

The mental life of a warm-blooded animal is a very different affair from that of reptiles and fishes.
