The Lockport Courier relates the following
singular occurrence:
Mr. james G. Lewis, of this place, has in his
eatlng-saloon a tame robin, which, until an
incident that occurred about year ago, was a
beautiful singer 1t was kept in the same room
with parrot at that time, when Pol being out
of her cage, flew across the room and alightod
upon the cage of the robin. The robin was
very much frightened, and since that time has
never sung a note or acted like the same bird
1t was before. But what is still more singular,
its feathers are gradually turning white 1t
will soon be fitted for place with the Happy
Family in Barnum's Museum. ~
