Battle Between Birds.

A singular contest between blue.
birds and martens occurred in Lex
ington, Ky. While two bluebirds
we're building a nest in box, pair
Of martens laid claim 10 the nest.
Considerable skirmishing was carried
on for several days, the bluebirds eve.
rY time coming of victorious. The
neighborhood was startled early one
morning by the noise made by a con.
gregation of hundreds Of martens and
bluebirds, and soon a general battle
along the whole limo began. For an
hour il was carried on with great
6erceness and vindictiveness. The
birds paid no attention to the sur.
roundings, but fell fighting at the feet
Of persons standing in the yard. The
weather being pleasant, the windows
in tho houses we're raised, that the
family might witness the conflict.
Numbers Of birds passed through the
windows and several pairs we're caught
in the rooms fastened together. There
were no towards or shirks, but every
bird seemed intent on doing his whole
duty. In one hour the martens were
beaten, and retired from the contest,
leaving the bluebirds in possession Of

As for "those women who prefer

versal law Of nature, which struggles
for the survival Of the iittest and sub

the baby of such a woman would be

Black Friday, September "a, 1863,
was the day on which a ring of gold
operators, with the corporation Of the
National Administration, forced the
price of gold at the Gold Board in
New York to 1862, when it fell to 1873,
involving half Of Wall street in ruin.
In the evidence ELECTED by the subse.

that the tendency of gold had preyi.

and unnatural movement, which re.

There is beautiful allegory told
by some one, We know not whom, TO
this effect: The Lord on a certain
occasion allowed every man TO take
bis burden on his shoulders and put
it in the pile of burdens which men
had been bearing from the beginning.
Then he told each one to go to the
pile aud select for himself the particu-
lar burden which he thought ho could
most easily bear. The world seemed
very glad for while, because every
one has the impression that he can
more easily endure any other kind of
i'll than the one which has been forced
upon him. If one has pain in the
knee il is worse than pain in the
head, and if one has a pain in the
eye it is worse than pain in the
hand. The general rejoicing did not
last long. however, for when each
man tried his neighbor's burden he
found to his surprise that it did not
fit his shoulders at all. The discon-
tent among men was terrible. Con.
fusion worse confounded reigned eve
rywhere. At last each man went
back to the pile, picked out the troub-
10 that belonged to him, and, with a
feeling that he could endure that bet
ter than anything else, went home
reasonably happy.

Even while | was thinking on the
subject | received a letter from the
officers Of one Of our prisons, which
stated that a negro convict had been
confined in their institution for more

had been good in all respects; that he
had made himself useful in many
ways; and that they placed full conf ,
dence in him. His time was soon TO

the case, he wanted TO know why the
