monious action OF the two states tn re has been

The MARYLAND Game Iaw-Narvls

The Maryland Game Law Maryland
is not the spurtmans Ellor,do but there IS
enough game eft in some Of the counties still
to make cunning enjoyable PItridges are
quite plentiful, jacksnipe to be flushed in the
swAmpy thiykcs AMI sho,e birds Rock about
the he ,rh"s NJ The buy ma the ocean. Ex-
cept iot the protection of ducks MARYLAND has
few genor'l game laws than almost any other
State. Each county, however, passes at the
biennial sessions the Legislature some local
law governing the protection Of its own birds.
Just at this season there are few birds indig-
enous TO Maryland that are not shielded By
tho law from the breech-loader of the sport
man or the "bob-tlil' musket of the small
boy. Woodcock can be killed from the 18th
af June until the LIST day Of February. Snipe
can also be killed now-if they can be found.
In all OF the counties there are laws forbdine
the killing of robins, blackbirds aickers field
larks, which usually comprise the game Of
the youthful hunter, after the Isl of April
There is no general State law protecting the
song birds, which are quiet p ntfu here
hut most Of the counties have local laws for
hiding the gillinR of the mocking bird, thrush
csthird and hnches The law prohibts the
killing of rabbits between the 18th ofJanuary
and the 18th ofoct6ber As squirrel, bring
forth their young in early spring the summer
isjust the time 10 kill them The Young ones
now almost full grown, acquire delicious
flavor to their flesh by eating the green h;ck.
DRY nuts and the young corn. Shore birds
such as willet, oyster birds, curew. etc are
not protected by any special legislation AZ they
are short sojourners Along the ocean shore

The Russian Hebrew COIOnies.-A
correspondent OF the san, writing from At
lantc City, states that the COLONY of Russian
Hebrews established in this county, was not
started under the auspices of any society, but
was undertaken by the Russian refugees them
selves with capital of their own against the
advice of friends The Jewish community Of
Baltimore sent them occasional assistance
hut beyond this had nothing to do with their
enterprise. Nor was the colony in Middlesex
county, va, authorized by the Russian aid
committee c! Baltimore. but WAS undertaken
as an individual enterprise By gentlemen own
ing the land in Virginia, who 10 praise
worthy manner, and At sacrifice Of time md
money, located the refugees upon their land.
Success might probably he attained, the wri-
ter saws, if the latter scheme were conducted
on business principles either by the owners Of
the Land or by stock company, but as a
charitable enterprise il is bound to fall. Ex-
pe-ience elsewhere shows that colonization
scheme to be successful must proceed on bust
ness principles. The fault of the failures in
Virginia and in this county, he maintains
lies not with the Russian Hebrews, but with
the method of their colonization.
