Migration of Birds.

The migration of birds is beset
with many perils and difficulties.
Birds often lose their way; a con-
trary wind or spell of dark, cloudy
weather appears to disorganize their
movements, and like mariners with
out a compass, they are at loss
which direction to take. Many won
derful scenes are witnessed at the
lighthouses on some parts of the
British coasts during the season of
migration. Sometimes when the
moon is suddenly hidden by bank
of clouds, the lanterns of the light
house are the point to which the
stream of migrants hasten, and where
in a confused futtering throng they
beat against the glass like moths
around candle, and fly to and fro,
utterly bewildered and completely
lost. They seem to have no idea of
their true course, and fly aimlessly
about, many killing themselves as
they dash against the glass, others
falling into the water below. The
lightmen are alert on these occasions,
and capture numbers of the poor lost
travellers with hand nets. Many OF
the poor birds are too tired or too
dazed to move, and are thus TAX
en- by the hand as they sit on the
| balcony. Let the reader represent
to himself lighthouse on one of
these migration nights. The tide OF
migration is at its height. The night
| is dark, and the lanterns are the
central point of attraction for the
countless hosts of birds that were
crossing the sea when the sky be-
came overcast. Birds of many diff
ferent species are flying together, or
are attracted from all points of the
compass by the brilliant light. Ducks
and geese are travelling with gold
crests and swallows. Starlings and
finches are flying side by side with
gulls and waders. Warblers and
herons scatter scientific classification
to the winds, and fraternize with
swans and goatsuckers and larks.
Falcons and owls appear to lose all
propensity for preying on their
helpless fellow-voyagers, and fly
harmlessly to and fro among theil
companions in misfortune. As soon
as the weather clears, and the moon
shines forth once more, the birds

Labrador.

From the map of Labrador, pub
lished in a recent issue of the pro-
ceedings of the Royal Geographical
Society, to illustrate the explora-
tions of Mr.. r. F. Holme, it appears
that a large portion of as yet almost
unexplored peninsula may, from the
existence of a continuous waterway,
consisting of lakes connected by riv-
ers, may be in a certain sense con-
sidered as an Island This chain of
lakes and rivers stretches from I'm
gava Bay to Goose Bay, at the head
of Hamilton Inlet. Five consider
able streams find their way into
Goose Bay, including the Kenamou,
which is used as one of the routes
from the South, the Nascope and
Grand River, both of which COM
municate with Lake Petchikapou
The interior of Labrador, according
to Mr.. Holme, who has assembled all
the rivers that enter Goose Bay as
far as they could be navigated in a
boat, is not by any means the des-
ert region which the dreary aspect
of the coast would lead us to infer.
At a distance inland of about twelve
miles luxuriant forest commences,
and clothes the entire country ex-
cept the barrens or moors, which
are the homes of the caribou. The
interior forms a vast tableland, the
height of which is given by Prof.
Hind at 2240 feet above the sea.
The long and narrow Lake Wimin-
ikapou is situated on the line of the
Grand River, which is by far the
largest of the rivers of the district,
at distance of about $50 miles
from it's mouth, and below the ele-
waited tableland. Thirty miles high
er up the river are the Great Falls,
the exact height of which is not
known, but which are probably among
the loftiest and most stupendous wa
terfalls in the world. since over them
and over the rapids of thirty miles
of Intercourse Grand River descends
at least 1000 feet. The Indians of
the interior all belong to the Cree
nation, and are probably the most
unauthorized Indians to be found
at the present date upon the North
American continent.
