MOLE-CATCHERS.
Early last summer the game-keeper to the Duke of Buccleuch
and Queensberry, having beard that numbers of hawks and girds
roosted and bred about the email of Glenwhargen, and having no
great brew of .his winged rivals, he resolved to act on the maxim
of Knoi—" that to batty their nests is the beet.way to banish the
crows." lie did so, and though a few stragglers still remained, the
herds at Glenwhargen made a sad complaint of the devastation
occasioned by the moles, Which were everywhere mining and
rutting the pastures to the great detriment of the poor sheep. in
this emergency the game-keeper advised them to catch a young
hawk, and tether him by the leg in a spot where the old ones might
approach unscared. The hint was taken, and during the first week
no fewer than eighty moles were killed, and their skins and carcases
placed within the reach of the youthful bird of prey. 'llse 'sped.
went was tried during several•weyks, and every day the jabbered
prisoner had plenty to cat, though the quinhers at last did
rapidly that the laud was thought to be entirely cleared. .
