From the Spirit Of Jefferson.
A very large bald eagle, we are in
formed, was discovered whilst about
attacking one of Mr.. Caleb Burns
sheep, few days ago, and was dIiv-
Ell off but not captured.
Master Edgar Crittenden, son of
II. w. CritteLden, Esq, brought
into our office on Wednesday last a
beautiful, large white bird, known to
naturalists as the Great Egret, or
Her0dads Egrettd, a species of the
crane. 1t measured fifty'two inches
from the tip of its back to the ends
of its toes, and fifty eight inches
from tip to tip of wings, and its
feathering was of the purest and
most beautiful white. The egret is
a bird very common in Florida and
some of the Gulf States, but quite
rare in this locality. The usual
length of those birds is about 80
inches, and length of wing 153 inches:
so that this one seems to be uncom-
monty large for its species.
We are glad to learn that there is
a good prospect of success in the
effort which has been on foot for
some time, to erect a building for a
Female Seminary on the lot left
for the purpose 10y the late John
Stephenson. Stock in the enterprise
to the amount of "a 900 has already
been taken, and if 81 800 more can
be secured, the Directors will pro-
coed to put the building under con
tract just AS soon as they obtain the
legal title to the lot, which they
hope to do IN a f-w days.
