st. Paul Pioneer Press.
Much dissatisfaction exists in various
quarters with the management of Indian
affairs under the new commissioner, Mr..
Hayt, and it is said that his unpopularity
has caused the Indian Committee to re-
commend the transfer Of the Bureau to the
War Department and to strike from the
appropriation bill every item giving the
Commissioner any special though hereto
fore admitted discretion in expenditures.
He is accused OF being absent in New
York more than half the time, and of
great many things not amounting to NAL
fesaflce in office, but detrimental to his in
fluence and to the efficient management of
the Indians.

English sparrows.

Prot. G. E. Hamlin, of Cambridge, Mass,
has communication in q recent number of
the Maine Farmer, in which he gives the
English sparrows very damaging record.
10 begin with, they have no good claim to
their name, though imported to our country
from England, as they are common to most
OF the countries of the old world. They are
not handsome they do not sing, but are
noisy chatterers; they are not insect des-
troyers to any extent, but when numerous
lnnct great damage to the grain crops; and
worst OF all, they are very quarrelsome, and
drive out other more desirable birds, the
biuebird, the wren, the white bellied sparrow
the purple martin, the oriole, the vircos, and
many other old favorites, that have delighted
the eye and ear of New England's sons from
their birth. Even the robin is compelled to
retreat before these interlopers when they get
to be numerous. The bird has always been
regarded as a vegetable feeder and very de-
structive to the grain crops in the countries
where he is best known. and English natur-
alists warned our people in advance that they
were importing pest. They not only eat
grain, green aud ripe, but fill themselves with
1rult buds, green peas. aud the small fruits of
the garden and fields. In the vicinity of
Boston they have not proved a protection
against he canker worm, which they were
imported to subdue. The bird is very prolific
rearing sometimes four broods in season,
and if allowed to increase unmoested, will
in few years be capable of doing much mis-
chief. In closing, Prof. Hamlin, with proper
solicitude for his native State, inquiries if it
is wise to introduce these birds into Maine.
to take the place of our harmless, beautiful
and musical native species; and he adds
Nearly all our singing birds seek the vicin-
ity OF human habtations for protection
against predacious species. In wilderness
few songsters are seen or heard. If kindly
treated they will rapidly multiply, and in
time will do very much to free us from our
worst insect enemies. Why not develop
fully the usefulness of cur home species, be-
fore doing more to spread over the country
