Two Bird Stories.

Der five hundred They formed in the

The Lafayette Qnd.) Courier relates
the following curious story: Abraham
nj lyer, who resides in the old Barthol-
emew place, east of the city, has made
a very singular discovery. Supporting
his porch are number of pillars, made
of four boards nailed together. While
sitting on the porch he heard a noise
within one OF these pillars, which
prompted him to investigate the cause.
The sound seemed to be made by birds,
and he procured a saw and cut hole at
the base of the pillar. From this hole
be drew out more than four hundred
dead birds, one hundred or more of
which his son brought down to the city
for inspection. They were in all stages
of decomposition, from the bird Just
dead to the skeletons of those which
had evidently laid there for years.
Two live birds, whose futtering and
noise had attracted his attention, made
their escape as soon as the hole was
opened. The larger number were blue
birds, but besides there were sparrows,
woodpeckers,w rens- indeed, a miscel-
laneous collection of the smaller birds
OF this latitude. To ascertain how

there was small hole, Just sufficient to

the top that egress was impossible. The

An Artistic Joke.

There lived in Florence an ancient
dame, named Anna Gaetano, who kept
an inn frequented by the wits and
loungers of the city attracted, not more
by the quality of her wine than by her
rude wit and grotesque vanity. She
was in her SEVENTEEN year, and was
hideously ugly, yet she had the vanity
to beg Salvador to paint her portrait,
that she might reach posterity by the
greatest master of the age. He finally
consented, on condition that the pic
ture should be finished at one sitting,
and that she should not see ituntil finish
ed. He sent for an easel and materials
at once, and produced one of the strong
est Gkenasses ever taken, hut to the
ana anger of the ancient
hostess, size figured in the portrait as
a pilgrim in male habilameBts and
long gray beard. The picture is said
to be still In existence. Nothwithstand-
ing Salvatore transcendent success and
merit, acknowledged by all
excepting the self constituted aroiters
of the Academy of st. Luke, he had
still been excluded from the body, and
had never been appointed to any public
works since he painted the only impair
tally successful altar piece in the
church Della Moore, at the beginning OF
MS notoriety.

THE AMERICANS IN IRELAND

The American Rifle Team arrived in
Dublin from Cork on the 18th. The
Lord Mayor and members of the cor
portion of the city of Dublin received
them at the depot there and conducted
them by carriages. A procession was
then formed with band at its head
and escorted the guests through Loeb
vile, Dawson and other principal
streets to Melbourne Hotel.
The reception given the team by the
pCpulace was most enthusiastic. I'M
mense crowds were at the depot and
along the entire route of the procession.
They cheered as long as the Americans
werein sight. The railway station and
streets were decorated and American
and Irish flags were everywhere dis
prayed. The enthusiasm eliminated at
the hotel where each member of the
team was cheered as he allghted from
his carriage. The people pressed for
ward to shake hands with them and
shouts of welcome, welcome" was
heard on every side. Thousands of
spectators were stationed in front of
the hotel until a late hour of the night
During the evening procession with
band of music and carrying flags and
banners marched to the place and sere-
naded the Americans. At the same
time banquet was in progress in the
hotel. Maj. Lecch presided, and made
speech warmly welcoming the rifle
men and their friends to Ireland. Col
Gildersleeve responded for the visitors.
With heartfelt thanks he declared that
their reception was far beyond anything
they had anticipated.

POLITICAL MATTERS.
Madison of course is the great polit-
cal centre from which extend the net
work of wires whose manipulation by
the managers here shape the conduct
of political affairs of the state. From
the capital city the chairmen of the
central committees issue their instruc
tions TO leaders of the interior hosts,
and handle the levers which set the
machinery of the two great parties in
motion; and fortunate is the seeker
after political items who succeeds in
ingratirating himself into the confidence
of one of these chief engineers of the
factionos. L was not particularly for
tunate in this respect myself, but in
general conversation among politicians,
and all are politicians here, L learned
something of the drift of opinion as to
the coming contest in the State, and
it is the same here as in Milwaukee:
That Taylor will be renominated by the
Democrats there can be no doubt; and
Doyle and Kuehn will go into the Con-
vention with strong following. For
the head of the Republican ticket, Lud-
ingtOn is most prominently mentioned,
although Gen. Atwood has many friends,
and will certainly make strong fight If
he enters the game, and / am told that
the venerable editor is ambitious to add
to the honors of his long and useful life,
by term Of usefulness as chief execu-
tive. Those three are the only names
have heard mentioned here, III connec-
ton with the first place on the two tick
cts, and, indeed, were no others to come
up, the election of either gentleman
would not be without credit to the State.

didates are legion, and the limits of this
letter would scarcely suffice to chronicle

AN UPHOLsTERER'S STORY.

Recent rumorS of new evidence
against Beecher arose from the follow
ing facts: A few days ago after the
close of the testimony i'll the trial, Nor
ris was informed that Mr. Loader, an
upholsterer, doing business at 902 Full
ton avenue, Brooklyn, would have
been an important witness. The story
was that years ago, before Mr.. Loader
went into business for himself, he had a
job III upholstering at Tilton's resi-
dence. He was in the hall
way of the house when
Beecher entered and was greeted by
Mrs. Tilton. Mr.. Beecher lifted Mrs
Tilton in his arms, kissed her par
oxysmally, and carried her into the
parlor Later either Intentionally or
accidentally, he went into the parlor
unannounced to get tool that he had
left there, and saw Mrs. Tilton and
Beecher in an equivocai attitude. He
Kept the latter sight secret until the
scandal broke out, when he
related it in confidence to several
friends; but he spoke about
the kissing in the hall to servants, and
they replied that it was not an uncom-
mon occurrence. Tilton's counsel sent
for Loader, but they could get no infor-
nation from him. He declared that his
business would be ruined should he be
made witness against Beecher, and
the lawyers, after considering the inn
probability o. being able to force him
to testify, and the difficulty of having
the case reopened for testimony, did
nothing publicly with the information
Loader has since been questioned by
reporters, but to all he declares that he
has nothing to say.
