Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rambles and Reveries of a Naturalist His little volume of Natural History sketches has very little to do with opinions or speculations. The aim of the writer has been to describe the facts and phenomena of Nature as they have appeared to present themselves to his own observation. They are life-pictures rather than compilations. So far as systematic arrangement is concerned, there has certainly been an effort to treat each subject taken up in such a way as to lay at least a stepping-stone on the path to a more serious contemplation of the sciences of the text-book and the laboratory, but the primary intention of the author has been rather to awaken or to stimulate a love for Nature in the minds of some who may not as yet have suspected what wondrous and ever-varying beauty lies everywhere about us in ditch and pond, in rock and stone, in river and sea, on earth and in the skies. The same objects have been described by other and abler pens, but facts and laws present them selves in different aspects to different minds, and the ceaseless and diversified operations of Nature cannot be too frequently portrayed. Even those who would not care to claim the character of students of Nature are not unwilling to be considered lovers of Nature, and for such the plain and non-technical descriptions of a few of her secrets, by those who tell the story of what they themselves have seen and felt in her presence, cannot fail to possess some degree of interest.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Hermit Naturalist On a frosty morning in the autumn of '93, when I was laboriously rowing against the strong current of the Delaware, above tide. Water, in search of a specimen of wild fowl for my cabinet, I saw the old hermit, sitting likea statue in his anchored boat. His shotgun rested on his knees, and he was evidently awaiting a shot at the wild-fowl that occasion ally y over at this season of the year. Aux ious to secure a nearer view of my hermit friend, I rowed towards him in such a manner as not to arouse his suspicions of my curiosity inspired purpose. I rowed but a short distance when I observed a fine ock of wild ducks y over me. At once I turned my attention to the lone sportsman. He also saw the game and was standing easily in his boat and taking care ful aim. As the ock passed directly over him he fired, when to my surprise and horror, he lost his balance, dropped his gun and madly grasped at the side of his boat as he went over board and disappeared from my anxious gaze, in the swiftly rushing current. Believing the current would carry him far below his anchored boat, I pulled with all my strength to intercept him as he came down stream. Soon his head appeared above the surface of the water, a hun dred yards or so from me. Increasing my efforts I soon rested in his way as the swift current swept him toward me, and I called to him to seize hold of my boat. He was an ex pert swimmer and soon grasped the stern of my boat, when I shipped my oars, and helped him aboard, chilled from the effects of his untimely bath. When safely seated in my boat, and having recovered his breath after his exhausting efforts. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Although several of our most celebrated naturalists have climbed its lofty volcanic mountains, explored its lagoons and giant rivers, and traversed its immense forests, still, from the vast extent of that country and variety of climate - caused by difference of elevation - much yet remains to be done ere the public become thoroughly conversant with its arboreal and zoological productions.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Work of the Naturalist in the World Here can be no broader question, touching us all, than the inﬂuence of our profession upon the world. With your per mission I will present a series of considerations in regard to our professional careers which ought, in my opinion, to receive more attention than hitherto. I am aware that in doing this I depart very far from our custom, your previous presidents having each dealt with some broad but specific problem of natural history in their formal addresses. I must leave it to your judgment whether or not I have done wisely in not following, in the present address, the example of my distinguished predecessors. The object of the naturalist is to discover the truth about Nature, and to record his discoveries in a form which will render them available to others. Original research is the pivot of knowl edge.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Naturalist in Siluria I dwell in a district of country remarkable for its rich ness in plant and animal life I mean, of course, the wild and indigenous. So varied and plentiful are the species that in these respects I venture to believe there is no other part of England, or, indeed, the United Kingdom, which can at all compare with it. This profusion is chieﬂy due to its peculiar geological features. As will be easily understood, the geology of any particular part of the earth's surface affects the character of its botany so much that the former may appropriately be termed the parent of the latter while, in turn, the plant-life may be regarded as the creator and nursing-mother of all that lives, moves, and hath being. If, for instance, some grand upheaval - volcanic, plutonic, or by whatever name called - have tossed to the surface a varied series of the stratified rocks which form the earth's crust, and left their tilted edges exposed to the atmosphere, there will spring up on them a varied vegetation, with animal life in like manner diversified. And it will also be obvious that the more abrupt the dip of the upheaved strata the greater Will be this variety within the limits of a given district; as, of course, the sharper the angle cf elevation the narrower the exposed surface of any particular stratum.

Among the beings which occupy the border-land be tween the animal and vegetable kingdoms, the sponges have of late years started into prominence. Relegated at first to the vegetable, but now conclusively proved to belong to the animal kingdom, the sponges are full of interest to the student of zoology. With the sponge of commerce we are all familiar enough, and it is scarcely necessary to state that it con Sists of the horny Skeleton alone, the whole of the organic matter having been removed. This organic matter is apparently nothing but a mere wash or film of gelatinous substance covering every filament of the Skeleton but when carefully examined it presents a most remarkable mixture of simplicity and complica tion. Without entering into the purely scientific details Of sponge-structure, I will endeavour to lay open some of the wonders which are hidden in one of the lowest forms of animal life.
