MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS.

The novel fashion of ladies wearing stuffed
birds, as a portion OF the head dress, or orna-
ment for the bonnet, has given the taXider-
msts moro work than they can do, aud SO adj
vanced the price of birds that some Yankee
has patented a new bonnet, with a cage In
front, in which live birds can be kept. The
cage occupies so small a space that not more
than two or three varieties Of birds can be
covered at once but the cage is beautifully
located between two flower beds, of less than
half acre each The whole gives a very
unique and picturesque appearance, and sets
off the human face divine as did the head
dresses of Queen Elzabeths time that were
seven stories high, the upper decorations be-
INK reached by spiral stairs, such as are seen
in all pictures of the ancient tower of Babel.
Sr. PAUL's PERsoN.-How little stress is
to be laid on external appearance This
prince of apostles seems to hint, concerning
himself that his bodily presence was not cal
oulated to command respect. st. Chrysostom
terms him little man about three cubits, or
four and half feet high. But Necphorus
has given us the most circumstantial account
of Paul's person. st. Paul was of small
stature, stooping,and rather inclined to crook
edness, pale-aeed, of an elderly look, and
bald on the head His eyes lively, keen and
cheerful, shaded in part by mis- eyebrows,
which hung little over His nose rather
long, and not ungracefully bent. His beard
pretty thick and of sufii lent length, and
like his locks, interspersed with gray.-New
