EMPTYING THE JAILs FOR VOTERS.
[From the Frede ickshurg Herald
The people in the North may form some
idea of the fierceness of the struggle we
nave passed through, when we state that

only temporary residence. But this is
not the worst. The hospital here under
the Bureau was emptied, and the ssbalt,

hobbling to the polls to vote the Radical
ticket. Bad as this was, there was still a
deeper depth. Prisons aoere unJarred. and

taken to the polls and voted in this election

At the age of sixteen he composed and
| published the song, "Open thy Lattice,
Love-" which was admired, but did not
meet with extraordinary success. In the
year following he went to Cincinnati, en-
| tering the counting-room of his brother,
and discharged the duties of his place
with faithfulnesS and ability. His spare
hours were sill devoted, however. to his
favorite pursuit, although his productions
we're chiefly preserved in manuscript, and
kept for the private entertainment of his
friends. He continued with his brother
nearly three years.
At the time Mr.. Andrews, of Pittsburgh,
offered silver cup for the best original
negro song, Mr.. Morrison Foster sent to
his brother Stephen copy of the adver-
tisement announcing the fact, urging him
| to become q competitor for the prize.
These saloon entertainments occupied a
neutral ground, upon which eschewers of

abettors of play house amusements-Ac con-

Birds Useful to the Farmer.

At meeting of The Horticultural Society
ot Lancaster county. Penn, a few weeks ago.
Professor Ru;hvOn read the following article
IN relation to connections existing between
Ornithoogy and Entomology, and their reIa-
tious to agriculture. The question of the
position which birds occupy as protectors of
the various productions OF the soil. against
the distractions causcd by noxious insects. is
one that Is engaging the attention Of the whole
agricultural world. aud the examination of
the stOmachs Of birds at different seasons of
the year, reveals the fact of what their food
consists in, at those different periods. And
here permit me TO say, that although cxami-
nations by different individuals Lave Eecn
made during the last five years, of large
number OF birds ston;Gchs, ard although
thousands OF insects Of various kinds have
been found in them, yet can not rccul n
single recorded instance, in which the c1u.cu.
hO;that destroys our plums, cherries, &c,
was ioumd. have - faint impression that
DIR. Trimbie, State Entnmologist of New Jer-
Sey, on s!u%lc occasion, found few. Many
birds that iced on seeds and fruits, feed on
insects of different kinds, before those seeds
and fruits are in season, and therefore, they
perhaps prevent great deal more injury
from insect dcprcdatiuns ti'au they themselves
could possibly infict upon the crors they
1ecG on, While they are in season. For in
stance, the author OF "Anderson's Bee, ca,
tions" says, that DR.. Brady has computed
that PAIR Of English sparrcws carried to
thelr young, III one week, not less than three
thousand three hundred and sixty catcrpil-
lars, at which rate, in the course of three
months, this family would Consume 43 ,nCO.-

the English species. lie: any man, there
fore, compute the damage of these caterpil-
lars, aud the Infinite progeny that are likely
to have issued from them, had they been per-
mitted to reach the winged state, and he may
then see how wise it is to destroy bird, be-.
cause 1t chooses to make descent now and
