James Hillman, respectable and

thority for the following remarkable
story Mr.. Hillman has on his farm
fifteen acres Of timber, which is ioined
by two other pieces Of woodland Of
about the same size. One morning dur

mans attention was attracted by large
focks of crows which came from the
south, and as If by common consent
settled in the woods mentioned above
During the ensuing three days the crows
in the woods were reinforced by new ar
rivals, until several thousand were pres
ent, and the noise they made attracted
the attention Of people for miles around.

taking their course Of fight in north
westerly direction. They left the woods
in focks Of 200 or 800 each, at intervals
Of five or ten minutes, and the departure
Of one Of these tiocks was the signal for
loud and prolonged cawing on the part
OF those remaining behind. They AT
departed in the same direction, and the
last flock took to wing about an hour
after the first started. Since then there
has not been crow seen in the neigh
borhood. Mr.. Hillman says that dur.
ing their stay in his woods the crows
did not commit any depredations on the
neighboring corn-fields, and but few Of
them ever ventured beyond the con
fines Of the timber. r.-F FiottsVitIe Miners

Mr.. HowLER, a abeplastered and pasted

appeared in San Francisco police court
demanding justice. He was professor
Of elocution, into whose apartments,

Pelter, who threw the pupil down stairs,
danced on Howler and hammered him
into hash with bed-slat. McPelter
then produced two witnesses from his
eoat-tail pocket-a slice Of wooden par
tition and copy Of Edgar A. Poe's
poems. The substance of his testimony
was that he had been doomed to hear
the poem Of "The Raven" howled by
the plaintiff until his spirits sank, his
sleep forsook him, his memory failed
and reason began TO totter on its throne.
The clerk read three stanzas in sing
song tone and then the poem was turned
over to Howler. At the end Of the first
verse there was general look Of horror;
at the second groans and evidence Of
sea-sickness at the third the Judge
grew faint, and the policeman clapped
his hand over the elocutionist's mouth.
A flask Of "medicine was handed TO
the court, and when he recovered he
dismissed the prisoner and bound Howler
over to keep the piece-and keep it out

MORE emigrants will land in this
country during the current year than in
any former year in our history, and the
management of the business has been
reduced almost to science. The rail
road and steamship lines have now SO
systematized emigration that German
wishing to come to America can, before
leaving home, buy his land and be de
livered at the nearest railroad station to
it without delay or hazard, the deeds for
the land and the passenger certificates
being alike issued by special agents of
the roads owning Government land
grants. In the case Of the Northern
Pacific road, the body Of wheat lands,
in Dakota alone, granted to the road ex
ceeds in area the whole of Great Britain
and Ireland now cultivated. And these
fertile wheat lands of the far West
are now the destination Of German.
Swede, Norwegian, Dane, Scotch and
English. A very large population is
moving on to the wheat lands Of North
ern Minnesota and the Canadian Prov
ince Of Manitoba. This is the famous
valley Of the Red river of the North.
It is easily reached by rail from st. Paul
or Duluth. But the lands here arc
largely held by speculators; great tracts
Of $4,000 to 10000 acres having been
bought up at less than 80 cents an acre.
The Government lands, adjacent to rail
road lands, and subject to entry, are
held at ~. so an acre, or twice the price
Of ordinary Government land. But this
is cheap compared with land anywhere
else under the sun. A single crop will
pay the cost Of land, labor, and all other
expenses. What can an emigrant ask
more? When the absolute ownership
Of his home here only costs the emigrant
sum equal to single years rent in
Europe, is it any wonder steamships are
oyercrowded2

The Boston and New York boats have

had occasion to go to Newport. Now,
strange as it may appear, this particular
law student had not superhuity OF
lucre, although it is a well-known fact
that law students generally are very
flush. So Mr.. McAllister bought a
ticket to New York, intending quietly
and unobtrusively to get off at Newport.
But here the mighty arm of the railroad
company was stretched out and the Nc
Allister was not allowed to get of until
he had paid 60 cents extra. This was
why he sued. The court has just decided
that man must pay for riding on the
cars, but that he is not obliged to pay
for getting off where he pleases. So the
economical McAllister not only got his
ride to Newport for 81, but he has been
awarded s75 and costs for doing SO. The
costs amount to S125.

This shadow by the castle walls.
hid are the yioletg wrapped in gloom,
shadowed the purple heads Of bloom,
Yet telling to me with their sweet perfume
Their presence in this shadowy tomb.
One lovely day, ah woful day
1t was one smiling morn in May;
The sun sent down his cheeriest ray
Upon this long, sad-ending day
Forth rode a young and gallant knigh
with eyes of heavens own azure light
with housings gay and helmet bright,
ont rode this young and gallant knight
With lance and spear at saddle bow
He salliea forth to meet the foe;
He pauses where the fir trees grow
And turns last look on Glencoe.
Farewell, my proud, ancestral home;
Farewell, ye woods I've loved to roam.n
He lifts his eyes to Glencoe's dome,
Where wave the banners Of his home.
His gallant steed, ere night had fell,
Had charged through brake and bosky dell,
And reached his stall; oh, was 1t well
with Glencoe's pride? All, who could tell?
No more he paced his fathers halls,
No more their grandeur on him falls,
But darkly by the castle walls
The shade from tower and turret falls.

BLIND MErCAIrn.

One Of the most extraordinary in
stances Of victory over adverse circum-
stances is found in the career Of John
Metcalfe, Of Kualesborough, England,
the well-known engineer and road
maker He was totally deprived Of
sight by smallpox when only years old.
As q rule the loss Of sight skaters the
whole framework Of mind and body,
and the Child grows up selfish and
moody, becoming day by day more 81

The very reverse of this was the case
Of little John Metcalfe; no boy ever en-
tered the sports Of boyhood with keener
relish than he he is proficient climber
and birds'-nester; he knew how to ride
and manage horse, and enjoy a good
gallop he knew how to swim, and on
one occasion saved the lives Of three Of
his companions, and ON another the life
OF a man, after whom he dived to the
bottom of the river Nidd four times.
Nor was he less apt at indoor than
outdoor amusements. He could play
the violin with considerable skill. and
amuse himself in such variety Of ways
that time never hung heavily upon his
hands. As he grew up he devoted him
self to useful pursuits, made a little
money, and was rich enough to buy
horse Of his own, ON which he con
stantly followed the hounds, and was
as bold and daring a rider as any.
Among the feats that proved his cour-
age and sagacity was a walk from Lon
don to Harrowgate, distance Of 200
miles, on an unknown road; and, what
is more extraordinary, and would be in
credible but for the good authority on
which the story is told, he accomplished
the distance in the same time it

not yet come for the idea to be fully de,

In the meantime he employed himself
in variety of ways in order to procure
a livelihood, and, among other things,
