EHE YELLOW.HAMMER's NEST.
DY JOHN W. CHADWICK.

The yellow hammer came to build his nest
High In the elm-tree's eyer-noddin crest;
AL the long day, npon his task intent,
Backward and forward busily he Went
Gathering from farand near the tiny shreds
That brides weave for little brides Deds;
Now bus ofgrass, now bits OF vagrant string,
Ana now some queerer, dearer sort OF thing.
For on the lawn, where ne was won't to come
nsearcn oil stuff to build his pretty home,
We dropped one day a rock OF golden hair
Which our wee darling easily could spare;
And close beside 1t tenderly we placed
A lock that had the STOPPING shoulders graced
or her old grandsire; twas white as snow,
Or cherry trees when they are all aploW..
Then throve the yellow hammers work apace;
hundreds of times he sought the lucky place
here sure, he thoughtl his bird fashion dim,
Wondrous provision had been made for him.
Both locks, the white and golden, disappeared;
The nest was finished, and the brood was
reared;
Aud then there came pleasant summer's day
When the last yellow hammer flew away.
Ere long, in triumph, from its leafy height,
We bore the nescso wonderfully diyht,
And saw how pretlily the white and 70 ID
Made warp and w'oof OF many cleaning fold.
But when again the yellow hammers came
Cfcaving the orchards with their pallid fame,
Grantlslre's whine locks and baby's golden head
Wee lying low, both in one-grassy bed.
And SO more dear than ever is the nest
Taken from the elm-tree's ever-noddlng crest
Little the yellow hainmer thought how rare
A thing ne wrought oil whrte anu golden hair

has the power to give us communication
by telegraph. Evidently now that the
Government has vested itself with the
right to transmit mail matter, it is its
duty to give the people the most rapid
means of communication that the prog
ress of events and the developments of
science place within the range OF possi-
bility.. Failing to do this the Govern
ment is not faithful to the execution OF a
great interest which it has undertaken
to protect
Tue only real argument against postal
telegraphy is made by those who hold that
the Post-Ofice Department should be
abolished and the matter Of carrying the
mails performed by private companies,
as the express business is now done.
AS imprac ticl as these men are they
have the advantage of consistency, for
there has not been made single argu-
ment against the postal telegraph that
can not be applied with equal force
against the system of postal arrange
ments as now in operation.
AS to the question Of whether the
Government could SUCCESSFULLY manage
the telegraph lines, every practical man
will have his own opinion. There does
not seem to be any difficulty in this that
is not encountered in the present postal
system. The Government would have
the same talent to select from that the
telegraph companies have, and there
does not appear any good reason why
the telegraphic branch should not be as
well managed as any other branch Of the
Post-ofiiee Department. But whether it
could be mace paying Institution from
the first or not, it is the duty Of the Gov
ernmens to adopt it. The interests of
the existing corporations has kept us be-
hind the rest OF the world in this matter
long enough, and mere question of
whether it will pay from the first is not
even consideration worth discussing.
