NOVEL CONCERT BETWEEN A MoUsR
AND CANARY BIRD.-'.Rara Avis" in
the Boston Traveller, gives the following
account OF concert between q canary
bird and mouse, which took place on
the evening of the 10Th of January. He
says:
when all was still in my room, on
the aforementioned evening, my atten-
tion was attracted by sound within the
walls exactly resembling the chirp of a
young canary. This awoke my canary,
who answered it from his perch. The
chirp was repeated, and the bird replied.
A regular bird conversation followed
each answering in tune, the unseen sing
er increasing in loudness and clearness
till the canary was clearly thrown into
song, and initiating him in bis trills and
warbling, just about as closely as young
canary would initiate an old one. At this
moment, regiment of rats, who seemed
to have been collected round the spot,
made stampede, and the invisible sing
er was silenced for the night
"My first thought was to refer this in
tramural singing TO canary heard
through the walls, but inquiring at the
next door and finding that no canary was
kept there, and hardly supposing that
one could exist between the walls, was
obliged to yield to the opinion of lady
present, that it was musical mouse, she
citing an instance of the kind which had
come to her knowledge in the family of a
physician of this city, in which, after
many attempts, the mus ausicus was cap
tured. Only one other supposirion &C l!d
be INDUCED, and the improbable onc.
that the rats had carried off i've taaa.
ry, and kept in confinement to ENJOY his
song"

"And straw by straw the walls he wrought.

WINDFALL FOR A VAGRANT IN A WoRK
HoUsE.-About fifteen days since a wo-
man named Mary Ann Stewart was ar
rested by the First District police as a
drunken vagrant, wandering through the
streets without any visible means of sup
port, and Recorder Bright sent her to
the Work-House for thirty days. Yester-
day a man came into the Recorders of.
flee and stated that he had been looking
for this woman for more than three
months, and had only that morning
heard by accident that she was in the
Work.Houss. He stated that some time
since Mary AIMS grandmother died in
England, and left her legacy of fourteen
hundred pounds sterling Nothing had
been heard of Mary Ann for q long time
before the death of her grandmother, and
the executors wrote to this friend, en-
powering him to ascertain, if possible, her
whereabouts, or if she was dead to send
on an authenticated certificate of the fact.
Upon this statement, and the promise to
take her out Of the city as soon Is possi-
bic, the Recorder released her from the
Work House and sent her on her way re-
joicing like one with pocket full rocks.

said to be strictly true: While She was
