[(NOON)]
At noon the Hebrew bowed the knee
And worshipped
Evening and morning, and at noon, will I pray and cry aloud,
and he shall hear my voice.—PSALM LV. 17.

[THE WHITE-FOOTED DEER.]
During the stay of Long's Expedition at Engineer Cantonment, three specimens of a variety of the common deer were brought in, having all the feet white near the hoofs, and extending to those on the hind feet from a little above the spurious hoofs. This white extremity was divided, upon the sides of the foot, by the general colour of the leg, which extends down near to the hoofs, leaving a white triangle in front, of which the point was elevated rather higher than the spurious hoofs.—GODMAN'S NATURAL HISTORY, vol. ii. p 314.
