THE CHICKADEE.

He is, par excellence, the bird of
the merry heart. There is a notion
current, TO he sure, that all birds are
merry; but that is one of those Sec
ond-hand opinions which man who
begins to observe for himself soon
finds it necessary to give up. With
many birds life is Il hard struggle.
Enemies are numerous and the food
supply is too often scanty. Of some
species it is probable that very few
die in their beds. But the chickadee
seems to be exempt from all forebod-
ings. His coat is thick, his heat is
brave, and, whatever may happen,
something will be found to eat. "Suf-
ficient unto the day is the evil there
of is his creed, which he accepts,
not ssfor substance of doctrine" but
literally. No matter how bitter the
wind or how deep the snow, you will
never find the chickadee, as we say,
under the weather
1t is this perennial good humor,
suppose, which makes other birds so
fond of his companionship; and
their example might well be needed
by persons who suffer from moods of
depression. Such unfortunates coule
hardly do better than to court the SO
ciety of the joyous tit. His whistle
and chirps, his graceful feats o
climbing and hanging, and withal BIZ

THE NEXT QUEsTIoN.-In Scotland
they have narrow, open bitches,
which they call sheep-drains. A
man was riding donkey one day
across a sheep-pasture, but when the
animal came to the sheep-drain he
would not go over it. So the man
rode him back to short distance,
turned him around and applied the
whip, thinking, of course, that the
the donkey, when going at the top of
his speed, would jump the drain be-
fore he knew it. But not so. When
the donkey got to the drain he stop
ped all Of a sudden, and the man
went over Mr.. Neddy's head. Nc
sooner had he touched the ground
than he got up, and, looking his
beast straight in the face, SAID
'Verra weel pitched; but then hoe
are ye going to get over yersel?'

engaging familiarity (for, of course,
such good nature as his could not
consort with suspiciousness) would
most likely send them home in a
more christian frame. The time will
come, we may hope, when doctors
will prescribe bird-gazing instead OF
blue pill.
To illustrate the chickade's trust
fulness, | may mention that a friend
of mine captured one in butterfly
net, and carrying him into the house,
let him loose in the sitting-room.
The little stranger was at home i'm
mediately, and seeing the window
full of plants, proceeded to go over
them carefully, picking off the lice
with which such window-gardens are
always more or less interested. A
little later he was taken into my
friends lap, and soon he climbed up
to his shoulder; and after hopping
about for few minutes on his coat
collar, he selected a comfortable
rosting-place, tucked his head under
his wing, and went to sleep, and
slept on undisturbed while carried
from one room to another. Prob
ably the chickadee's nature is not of
the deepest. I have never seen him
when his joy rose to ecstacy. Still,
his feelings are not shallow, and the
faithfulness of the pair to each other
and to their offspring is of the high
est order. The female has some
times to be taken off the nest, and
even to be held in the hand, before
the eggs can be examined.

Washington Territory was not
enrolled in the sisterhood Of States
by the last Congress, and Governor
Newell gives the Olympia Tran
script the following reasons for it,:
The failure of Nevada TO increase
materially in population as was
promised and expected upon admis-
sion-an apprehension that was APP
Piled to us; the requirement of a
sufficient number, to be shown by
census returns, to entitIe us to a
member in the House of Represen-
tatives, which is now 100000; the
prior claim of Dakota, with 100000
people, which is suspended by diff
ferences as to the subdivision Of the
Territory, and implications involv-
ing reputation to a certain degree;
the governmental differences with
Utah, were all urged against admis-
sion generally. Furthermore, the
jealousy of the continental States,
opposing our equal representation
in the Senate; the hurry and press
inc business at the end of short
session of Congress, and the uncer-
tain tyattending the coming presi-
dental election, utterly precluded
any favorable action. The effort TO
gain admission has done great good
in thoroughly advertising and maxi
ing known our resources and ats
tracing the attention Of tho country
to our future great State.
