came over safely, only one dead and one
sick bird being among the lot, showing
pretty conelusivcly the hardness of their
constitution. They are inseetivorous in
a high degree, aud besides the sport their
fecundity will insure to the sportsman,
they will probably be an additional and
powerful check to that insect life which
is the bane of agriculturists North and
South. The birds will be turned out
mostly in Maryland, some few going to
Virginia. Three got loose at the steamer,
foot Of Buchanan's wharf, and went of to
Anne Arundel county, strong Of wing in

quail that nestled in New England in 1878

The Sanguenay River is one Of tie most
wonderful rivers on the globe. For sixty,
five mile Of its length its depth is from
1000 to 1900 feet. At Cape Trinity it
reaches this enormous depth, while the
rocky shore rises almost perpendicularly to
the height Of nearly 2000 feet-truly
grand and wonderful. Some hold the
theory that this mighty gorge was made
by an earthquake, and that it is an arm Of
the sea, although it empties into the
St Lawrence, nearly three hundred miles
from the sea, or tho mouth of the Gulf of
St. Lawrence.
