Teaching Birds to Sing Tunes.

This is done in the town Of Fulda,
Germany, where they keep regular edu-
cational institutions for bulfnches.
They place the young birds into class
es of six to ten each, and keep them
in the dark tuning alittle hand organ
for them when they are fed. Finally
the birds commence to associate the
music with the feeding, and when hun
CRY commence to sing few notes of
the tunes they hear daily. Those who
do this are at once placed in room,
where some light is admitted. This
encourages them and makes them more
lively: then they like to sing, and are
soon taught more. The most difficult
part is the first starting Of the birds,
some of which have to be kept. long
while in the dark, and on starvation
rations before their obstinacy is over
come. In order to teach them several
tunes, they receive CATER being thus
first taught in elasses) private iastruc-
ton from the little boys of fluids, each
of whom has few private pupils of
this sort, Their education lasts nine
months, when it is completed, and the
birds, sent into the world as accom-
plished performers. The principal
markets are London, Paris, and New
York. They are valued in Europe at
twenty dollars for every tune they can
sing, so ore who can sing three tunes
costs sixty dollars.

"To-morrow morning 2"

L
Two happier people than the cousins
didn't 60 to bed that night. Each was
self-congratulatory and triumphant,
In the morning they went in a car
riage to minister unknown to either
and were married. 6.
sWhg it's one o'clock" said Hor-
ase as they re-entered the carriage
Eve have just time enough to go to
the surrogates Office and have grand
fathers will read.
They, arrived there to find several law
yers and the executors assembled. One
of the latter was speaking. He held
some documents in his hand. ~.
"Here are three wills, the first, leaY-
ing his property to Horace Warton, was
made about yesr ago. The. second,
date six months later, leaves the estate
to Rena Croker. The third and last,
dated three months ago, leaves all to,
charitable institutions. Of course, only
the last is valid-the others are Of no
consequence"
Rage and blank amazement filled
the faces of the plotting cousins; but
they could do nothing They rode dis
consolately; home in the carriage. They
unburdened themselves Of their real
sentiments, toward each; other. They
expressed the most cordial hatred for
each other. And they unanimously
agreed to regard the marriage cers-

But when whole nation commits an
act, rash, impolitic and direful in its
consequences, though it may be, and
the best and wisest men and women of
the whole people participated therein,
encouraged and led it,it is impossible to
consider the criminal law as being
framed to meet that case, or as being
in any way applicable thereto. These
people appealed to the arbitration of
war, and they have suffered by the war
that is their punishment. I believe
in giving them war, when it was war
they wanted-yes, and gave a cap
tain's commission once to'a Massachu
setts sergeant for no other reason than
that ne had with his own hands hanged
seven guerrillas. That was war. that
was the measure of their punishment
but criminal law has nothing todo with
this case" This declaration of the
emphatic Governor of Massachusetts
caused the remark, when related yester-
day, that it had an historical parallel in
the famous words of Burke, when he
told the British Parliament in reference
to the American rsvolutionists, that he
knew Of no way to write an indict-
ment Of the whole people"
A number of similar "reminiscences, of
both Northern and Southern, history,
were related, and, and after an hour or
two of pleasant conversation and
mutual, expressions of desire for better
acquaintance and fuller appreciation of
the condition of both sections of the
country the guests separated, Judge
Clifford proceeding with his family to
Savannah, whence he expects to re
turn in few days to make longer
stay in this city.

WHAT STEPHENS THINKS OF THE
COMPLIMENT TO GENERAL GoRpoN.-
Alexander II. Stephens refers at some
length, in the Atlanta Press, to the
':courteous compliment" paid the: ex-
rebel General Gordon by Fiee-Presi-
dent Wilson in calling him to preside
over the Senate. The ex Vice-Prssi
dent of the rebel Confederacy says:
.:It is but repetition in the Senate
of the like honor conferred on General
DuBosa by Speaker Blame soon after
this gallant ex-Confederate officer took
his seat in the House as the represen
tative of the Eighth District of Georgia
The moral of all such compliments
should be to cause all ex Confederates,
fevery grade and class, to cling closer
to the glorious principles of selfgovern-.
ment, for which they commended in the
day of fratricidal strife, and which
principles lie at the foundation of. all
our free institutions. These courtesies
are but indications ofthose higerhonors
which are in store for ex-Confederates
in days to come who shall prove true to
themselves and steadfastly adhere to the
vital principles Of all American consti->
tutional liberty. With patience, virtue
intelligence, and patriotism on the part
Of the southern people, the day is not
distant when their leaders in the late
rebellion, SO called in the language of
Andy johnson, will no longer be
branded with the dishonering name of
traitors, but denotedin history in the
rank of selfsacri6cing patriots 'conse
Grated to the admiration of the world;
and placed by the side Of Washington,
Hampden and Sydney.

The Wreck Of the Atlantic.

i NKw YORK, April S.-A newspaper
correspondent who went down TO the
wreck of the Atlantic yesterday in a
drivers costume says the hull lies well
down ON the port side and is broken in
several places, from the contact with
the reef i -. ,u..A n.,t.,.. ...t
/ Fish were swimming around eagerly
deyouring particles of food found float
ing about. He found the forward hatch
open and saw that the cargo there had
broken bulk and lay in confused heaps
with the bodies of men and women
jammed among the cases and crates,
bruised and torn Fishes were swim
ming in and out feasting upon the dead
bodies. Limbs are strewn around,
having been broken from the bodies by
the continual action Of the waters, which
when agitated, drive them against ugly
pieces Of broken hull that here project
The correspondents then went to the
eompanionway of the Storage cabins
and found a hundred or more bodies lying
in an immense heap, boxing as if alive,
with arms dislocated, eyes staring wild
ly, and: faces grinning and moving
forward and backward with the under
current. Some were dressed, but many
wore half nude. Children were cling
ing together and stout men were clasp
ing their wives seeming to have met
death with calm resignation. The
scene was horrible beyond description.
The correspondent then wet tothe, com
panionway Of the Storage where the
men passengers were by themselves
Bodies of strong men, old and young,
were hustled together on the stairway
with distended nostrils, gaping mouths
and staring, CLASSY eyes, giving some
conception Of the terror which seized
them as they vainly struggled to gain
the deck. From another part Of the
vessel view was obtained of the sleep
ing apartment, where piled up in heaps
on the port side were numbers Of bodies
of men with bed clothing strewn among
them, from abrasion with broken
stanchions and jagged splintered wood
work, with the flesh torn from the faces
of many. Others are bruised and
battered about their heads, which are
red and bloody, contrasting horribly
with the pale liyid features ofthe others.

FORTY YEARS AGO.

How wo ndrous are the changes, Jim,
Since forty years ago,
When gals wore wooden dresses, jim,
And boys wore pants of tow:
When shoes were made Of. calfskin
And socks of homespun wool,
And children did half-day's work
Before the hour of school.
The girls took music lessons, Jim,
Upon the Spinning wheel,
And practiced late and early Jim,
On spindle, swift and reel;
The boys would ride bare-backsdt to mill,
A dozen miles or so,
And hurry off before twas day,
Some forty years ago.
The people rode to meeting Jim,
In sledi instead Of sleighs,
And wagons rode as easy, Jim,
As buggies nowadays;
An oxen answered well for teams
Though now they'd be too slow,
For people lived not half 80 fast,
Some forty years ago.
o, well do remember, J i'm,
The Wilson patent stove,
That father bought and paid for, Jim,
In cloth our gals had wove;
And now the neighbors wondered
When we got the thing to go,
They ,aid ,twould bust and kill rs Ill,
