NOTICE.

This is to certify that I have known
Richard Harden, i doctor of the Tbomso.
MAN school for q great many years. Dur
ing all which time he has supported a
good character. He is moreover general.
ly considered here as a V ry prudent and
cautious practitioner of the Thomsonian
method and hashad a very extensive prac.
tlce, and from general report has been O.
qaally, if not more successful in his prac-
tice than his brother practitioners Of fbe
Ihomsonian order. | believe also that
his intentions arc good, and that he thor
oughly understands the systen he prac-
tees, and that any error he may commit
would not be from any fault in the man.
but from an jmp~erEection of the system,
indeed think his good judgment, pru-
dence and caution have counteracted or
made amends for the imperfection of the
system he practices ON.

NEST or THE FAUyErrE.-The Eau.
vette of st. Domingo, builds a nest thai
cannot but fix the attention of the mos,
c%aerless observer. Put togethamyith an
industry that passes description, We find
it composed ofdry herbs, leaE-fbres, and
heHible'roots, which are woven, with great
art, into a substance shapen like a ball,
compact and not to be penetrated by the
wet. It's h-Fmetically closed @the top,
and all around, except an opening 1t the
bottom, so that the bird has to ascend in
order to get in its nest.
One particular part, divided from the
restbya partition, is reserved for the brood.
1t is ornamented with l;chen, and made
very comfortable with a lining of silky
down. The a~droitness with which the
Fauyette defends its young from their ma
ny enemies, and ]conceaLs the cradle where
they commence a life full of uncerta nties
to them as well as to beings higher in the
scale OF cFcation, should not be without its
need Of applause. A cane, short and
faemating between two trees above water
il taken possession Of and the prudent me-
ther fastens her nest 70 It By a band, at
the same time strong and plant. The
