How High Can Il Cat Jump?


That birds, however apparently safely
hung in cares. are unsafe from the skill
and cunning OF the cat, may be gather
cd from mamy instances al the eXtraor-
binary leaps they are capable Of making
to attain their prey. Ne are told by 4
reliable authority that when his cat was
1 wear old he WAS seen several days in
succession to take his position on a show
case four tcet HIGH, licking his chops
while Watching Il canary III It cage SuS
pended from The ceiling eight feet from
the case. The ceiling was eleven feet
high from the floor, and the cage an or
binary one. While thus observing the
cat and thinking how remote was his
chance OF plumber, the animal suddenly
Sprang ut the cage and caught his claws
IN it. His weight swung the cage mp
against the ceiling, splitting seed and
water ami terrifying the canary. After
swinging To and fro several times the
eat dropped to the floor unIniured. Oar
Informant measured the distance from
The top OF the care and found it to be
ten .cet; so that the cat made an ascent
of six feet in eight, ~ upon al incline of
of nearly thir1y-five degrees. The sur
prise here is tina; the bird escaped, for
it is during is terrorand while beating
itself from side to side OF the cage that
the hooked claws of the eat are prepar-
ed to receive it, and if any portion OF the
bird is caught it is rapidly pulled
through the wire and the cat and bird
disappear before the spectator can re-
cover his establishment.

BIRDIE.

Mystical shadows are trooping
Over the papered walls,
Like pictures Of ancient castles,
OF arches and festooned halls
And the chamber grows ashen ana gnostly,
AS the fire burns ittul and low,
And I'm dreaming Of birdie" our darling,
Under the falling snow.
Softly the anoEnakes are falling,
And ghostly their gathering sheen:
And the birds come home in the twilight
To sleep in the cedars green.
But away in the snowy-clsd valley,
Where the winds OF winter blow,
There Birdie" our darling, is sleeping
Under the falling snow.
Slowly the darkness is stealing
Oversthe mountain and dale,
And the sound Of bells in the distance
Is borne on the passing gale.
Sweet music and sound OF voices
Swell up from the valley below;
But birdie" our Garling, Is sleeping
Under the falling snow.
Silent, and cold, and lonely,
One monument stands alone,
And over its cleaning marble
The twilight dyes are thrown
Where the evergreen shades its beauty,
Where the winter berries grows,
There Birdie our darling, is sleeping
Under the falling snow.
The bouehs Of the cedar are laden
With icicles cleaning bright,
For the winter fairies have clad them
With gems of the winter night;
And frost has tinted the berries
On the wild vines hanging low,
Where Birdie" our darling is sleeping
Under the falling snow.
Silent and sadly, my memory
Floats o'er that marble shrine,
Aud mingles her rich remembrance
With germs Of the cedar and vine.
But in dreamland my spirit is wand'ring
Where the roses Of Eden glow,
And Birdie no longer sleeping
Under the falling snow.

feeling at the South, after being so amend
ed as TO leave out all that part relating to
schools, passed the House on Friday, the

jurisdiction of the United States are en-
titled to the equal enjoyment "of the ac-

The bill provides for its own enforce
ment, and the penalties are heavy. The
vote in favor of the bill was 1852, all of
which were Republicans. OF the 100
votes in the negative, all but two were
from southern members, and all but IA
Democrats. 1t has yet to pass the Senate,
