a SPARRows NEsT.-There can be seen
from the window of country house near
Petersburg, Va, sparrows' nest which
upsets all the statements that can be found
in all the books about birds. About level
with the second story window of the house, in
the trunk OF an old apple tree. two sparrows
began month ago to excavate domicile.
They didn't 60 towork as they ought to have
done, according to the historians, and with
twig and leaf and scrap in general lace up
nest in the branches, nor stow away their
little home in some coZy corner of water
gutter. They cast tradition to the winds
and organized tunneling company to bore
hole in the tree. They elected themselves
president and vice.president, directors, Sc
cretary and treasurer, sub.let the contract
to themselves, took all the stock at par, and,
without even paragraph in the papers to
announce the event, stuck their bills bravely
into the c.umbling bark of the old apple tree.
Day after day they worked turn and turn
about; shat is, first Mr.. Sparrow stuck his
bill into the tree, pulled out as much decay.
ed wood as he could, and then flew away
Mrs. Sparrow repeated the operation. Both
of them very deliberately betook themselves
to neighboring twies and spat out the bilful
of wood. In this way, after nearly weeks
labor, these two pioneers in sparrow engi-
neering contrived to carve out room in the
tree large enough to hold them and stillleaye
space for the eggs in prospect. After the
two had gone to housekeeping in proper
style, two impudent bluejays came rollick-
ing along from the South, and, espying this
extraordinary cavedwelling of the Auelo-
American birds, thought it would be just
the place for them. So they tried by STRAIT
GOV and force to evict the hesparrows, but they
didn't succeed in their piratical endeavors.
