Florida Winter Birds.

A correspondent of the Hartford Times
from Jacksonville. Florida, says: Since that
cold snap of December so we are getting on
very well. The thermometer gets up to 7O0
750. 780, ETC., most every day soon after
noon, and the nights are not really cold. The
flowers are all out again, and picked hand
some bouquet of eight or ten kinds when out
in the fields the other day. I took my gun
and dog, and wasn't gone from my hotel in
Jacksonville two hours before brought in
nine Wilson snipe, one quail, one kildeer
plover, several larks, ground-doves and Caro-
lima doves, one clapper rail- one cardinal
red bird, etc., and 1 saw any quantity
of robins. What in the world you
Times men were up to, that you failed to
see any robins in Florida, I don't see Do
you expect them to fly into your hotel? If
you want to find birds in Florida you've got
to go out where they are, and have your eyes
about you. I saw, that day, the red shout
dered hawk, the sparrow-hawk, the pewee
four kinds of warblers, three kinds of wood
peckers, a number of titlarks, creepers, buzz
yards, black vulture, bittern lots of spar
rows, the shrike, hooking birds a plenty
several terms and gulls, and the chuck-zsilps-
widow,-and all within mile and half of
Jacksonville center. You must be like those
Boston chaps found here, half a dozen of
them with guns and dogs, who said they had
been here all winter and found no quail !
Three of US went out next day and brought
back ninety-two quail and some other birds
much to the establishment of Boston. I
find birds and other game plenty in Florida,
but it won't come into the hotel parlors to
make your acquaintance.

Engineer Kenny, of the Derby road, heard
a strange and alarming noise under his en-
CINE as he was bringing an extra freight train
to this city yesterday forenoon. A grinding

covered that tire on the rear driving wheel
right hand side of the engine, had broken,
and after causing considerable damage, had
flown quite distance over into field by the
track. The thick parallel rod had been bent
the two-inch running board split and splinter
ed, the connecting rod strap broken and a
piece of boiler iron connecting the two wheel
guards twisted all out of shape. After some
delay the train was brought on, all except the
freight cars, which were left behind and
brought on later
