MARVELLOUS indeed, as naturalists well know, are those 
periodic movements of the feathered race known as spring 
and autumn migrations. Moved by an instinctive impulse 
implanted in them by the Creator, thousands upon thousands

But if we are greatly astonished at the power of endurance 
exemplified in this long-sustained flight of some of the 
smallest birds, what will be said when we relate a circum- 
stance connected with a similar power possessed by a species 
of butterfly, so small and apparently ineapable of with- 
standing the violence of the elements, that we know not 
which is the more remarkable, the distance traversed, or the

Thus it was. Early in the morning of the first day of —
