THE DAvENPoRTS.

For few days last week, the Davenport
brothers were uppermost in the minds Of Sac
ramento. Citizens and lawmakers alike went
to see them, saw, wondered. left, commenced
explaining how the untying trick was done,
and wondered how it was done after they had
explained it. Every man in ten could tie the
Davenports so that they could not unite them
selves. Numbers of knot sharps had their
little day, then quickly died out of sight.
The Davenports move serenely through this
excitement which their exhibition causes in
every place they visit, enjoy their dinner and
wine, make their appearance at the appoint
ed hour on the stage, also their bow, seat
themselves in the cabinet, are tied bv some
one of the townspeople, who thinks he'll get
them this time. unite themselves in four or
ten minutes. gaze triumphantly on the won
dering audience reseat themselves, re-appear
in few minutes tied firmly by nobody, and
pocket their regular cash.
THE FESTIVAL.
Had we in the line of music expected less.
we would have received more. Bet the
newspapers wrought everybody up to too
great pitch of anticipation. There was no
exaggeration as to the crowd outside and in;
that fully equalled anticipation. But we had
expected to be Knocked down every few min
utes by grand crashes of music. We were
not The only harm done was by one of the
cannons, blowing one mans arm nearly off
and shooting its own ram-rod through q lager
beer saloon. 1t was big concert--nothing
more. We had no business expecting any
thing more. 1t was something like ou7 youth
full Fourth Of July's, " done and gone " in no
time. The previous anticipation far exceed
ed the reality.

DEATH TO THE CATERPILLARS.
A Contract for One Thousand En-
gIish House Sparrows.

From the COurier-Jou ournal.I
During the past summer the cater
pillars proved an almost intolerabls
nuisance. The beautiful shade trees
along the streets, one of Louisville
greatest adornments, were stripped Of
their foliage, and, in many instances
totally destroyed by these little pests
The General Council, to remedy this
evil, passed resolution directing the
Mayor to purchase one thousand English
house sparrows. Yesterday the Mayor
contracted with Messrs. Holt & Frisbee
of this city, to deliver one thousand
sparrows, for one thousand dollars, be
tween the 10Th of February and the 18th
of March next.
About fifty years ago this bird became
so numerous in Germany as seemingly
to threaten the destruction of vegetation
small fruits, etc. The government passed
laws compelling each land owner to pre-.
sent at certain seasons of the gear, to an
officer appointed for that purpose, mum
| ber of the heads of these birds strung on
a string--the number to be governed by
the amount of land owned by each per-
son; that plan was pursued for few
years until the birds were almost all
killed of, when real evil began to ap-
pear, not supposed one; it was found
that the pine trees, of which there are
extensive cultivated forests in that coun-
try, were dying off to such an extent that
the people got alarmed; other trees and
shrubs suffered, an investigation was be-
gun, and resulted in finding out two i'm
portant facts; That the caterpillars and
other insects were destroying vegetation
and trees, and that instead of destroying
they ought to have protected this little
bird, it being about the only one that
subsists on insects and their eggs or lar
vac; the order for the destruction of spar
rows was revoked, and as soon as they
could multiply sufficiently the insects
began to diminish, and now the sparrow
is considered benefaotor-to be pro-
tected instead of destroyed. They have
beeh introduced in New York city with
perfect success; there is scarcely cat
erpillar to be seen there, and in Central
Park and in different parts of the city
they may be seen cheeriully at work
searching for insects of various kinds
for food. Other States have tried them
with equal success; for instance, Ohio
and Illinois, and they will be introduced
into others, and probably all, as soon as
it can be done.
They are easily domestioated, and il
kindly treated, will not leave the homes
once provided for them. They are
hardy bird, enduring even the long and
severe winters of the Northern States.
The followingis description of the bird,
taken from one of our natural histories:
The English House Sparrow is six
inches long, brown above, beneath pale
brown. 1t is permanent throughout Eu-
rope, and is a universal attendant upon
man, building its nests as well around
the palace, as the cottage, in the city as
the hamlet. Its food consists of seeds,
insects, caterpillars, etc, 1t is q Nniver-
sal favorite, not for any merits of song,
but for its lively, oonfding manners and
cheerful ideas its presence imparts.

From the New York Star, l7th.l
The controlling head OF the French
nation to-day needs to be a man Of un-
daunted courage and the most exalted
patriotism. He shohld be free from all
personal ambition, and ready to do what
is manifestly right and best for the ma
ton, despite the clamor or threats of the
populace. He must be ready to sacri-
fee his personal popularity and even his
own life to save the country.
The position of France is one of ex-
treme difficulty By a series of most
unexpected disasters its regular forces
have been beaten almost at every point.
Over one hundred thousand prisoners
have fallen into the hands Of the Prus-
slams, together with immense quantities
of war material. The best disciplined
and effective force is shut up in Metz,
out OF which it has made three ineffect-
ual efforts to escape. Notwithstanding
all this, the pluck and endurance of the
French people is marvellous and admira-
BILE. They are anxious for peace, but
not upon terms that shall dishonor
France. The cession of territory is ev-
erywhere repudiated and it is claimed
that if Favre concludes an armistice
which involves the yielding of one foot
of French soil, there will be an uprising
in Paris. Here, then, is his and the
great trial of the ministers who with
him are managing the government. The
dispassionate judgment of these intelli.
gent and high-minded statesmen is far
more reliable than the conclusions of an
excited populace. Will they exercise
it?
Favre is now about sixty years Of age.
Although very young man and student
of law when the revolution of 1880 broke
out in Paris, he threw himself into the
Republican ranks. After Louis PHILIPPE
was raised to the throne he returned to
Lyons (his birth place., where he prac-
ticed his profession. Here he became
with the Republicans as a
leader, making himself especially prom
inent in the defense of workingmen in
that city who were arrested on the charge
of belonging to illegal associations, and
also for his defense of revolutionists
whenever arraigned for their opinions.
In the revolution of 1913, he was made
Secretary-General of the Ministry of the
Interior. He was subsequently elected
a representative from the Loire and after
wards from the Department of the Rhone,
and became a leader of the Mountain
party. After the coup d etdt, he retired
from political life for six years. In 1857
he was elected to the Corps Legislatif
and continued member up to his pres
ent appointment as Minister of Foreign
Affairs. By his marked ability and bril-
liant oratory, he has always bad great
influence with the Republicans, and this
he still retains. His present duties will
call into use his highest ability and cour-
age. Upon him depends, more than
upon any one man, the safety and per-
petuity of the Republic.

From the New York Star.l
A correspondent writing TO the Stai
from Troy gives the following particu
lars of terrible case Of suicide by q
miserable votary of rum, which occurred
near Eagle Bridge on Wednesday last
The victim of the terrible tragedy was O
young man named Frank Nutting, res
ident of Lansipgburg. This miserable
young man was possessed Of more than
ordinary mental abilities, and at one pc
riod Of his life bade fair to make his
mark in the world. But, alasl rum Sc
lected him for its victim; and, dragging
him down to the lowest depth Of degra'
dation, eventually plunged him into a
suicides grave. He chose for the scene
of his death the track of the Troy and
Boston railroad, at the aforementioned
point, stretching himself upon the rail
with his head turned from the engine as
it approached, and thus awaited death.
His body was mutilated in the most
frightful manner. His head hung to his
body by a mere thread, and he was 9th
erwise shockingly cut up. On examin-
ing the clothing of the deceased several
small articles, together with the follow
ing letter, we're found:
