According to report of United

canary birds exported annually from
Germany to the United States are inn
ported by German resident of New

field, in the province of Hanover,
whittier the birds are brought from
all parts Of Germany. At Bramlage,
in the llarz, this man has factory
which is capable of turning out every
day The material for 1000 bird cages.
This material is given out to the peas
ants, who make tho cages at home.
From Ashfeld tho birds are shipped to
New York. via Bremen, accompanied
by attendants Each attendant has
under his care about ono thousand
birds, each IN its own wooden cage.
AS each bird must he fed and cared
for regularly, the attendants are kept
busily employed. One of these at
teudants has already crossed the ocean
more than one hundred times in
charge of birds. There are thirty of
such employees. The New York house
disposcs of these birds--the finest
among them being the Andreasberger
Harz canary--in New Orleans, Charles
ton, San Francisco and other Ameri-
can cities, as well as In Canada.
Moreover, buyers are sent throug hout
the United States to obtain Ameri can
birds aud animals, and also to Mexico
and Cuba for parrots. These arc
brought 10 Germany by the canary al
tendants upon their return. In this
manner this same person annually i'm

birds (redbirds), 5000 nonpareils

Two Instances Where Soldiers Believed
They Would bs Killed.

At the risk of being classed with the
"unsophisticated," desire to say that
on the morning Of Sept. II, 1862, at
the battle of Antietam, as the com
mand was about to move from the field
where we had lain under the fire of
rebel batteries all day of the 18th, my
attention was called to Private Isaac
p. Hopkins, who had been ailing for
several days but who would not give
up. He was clearly unfit for duty,and
was ordered to remain behind. NO"
he said 81 would rather die than be
called a coward; but know very well
am going to be killed to-day"
He was the only man OF his com
pany who died on the field that day,
though many were wounded, mortally
and otherwise.
Another case in point. My chum
was Aaron G. Jenkins, as cool and as
brave a boy as was ever under fire. We
shared each others confidence, as well
as blankets and rations. On the morn
ing of May 8, 1868, at Chancellors-
vile, the regiment was in line near the
Plank road, where the Eleventh Corps
had fallen back the previous evening,
apparently waiting orders. Brigade
after brigade of our troops had been

lty, so far from being any such
weak and puerilc negation as this, is,
In fact, the fruit of combined forces
Earnest desires controlled bya strong
will, powerful passions curbcd by
intrepid resolution, ardent enthusiasm
guided by firm wisdom, manly energy
stcadicd by IA rcsolute purpose, warm
impulses directed by unwavcring
principles are the materials
out Of which an equanimity worthy
Of the name Is fashioned.

Ways or Life.

When Fortune smiles It's sweetest smlrk
And Favor slaps us on the back,
When Famc's steep hill seems easy work,
And pleasures decorate the track
Along our rosc-strewn youthful route
Life plays upon cheerful Lutte
When we are young.
When care has bent the weary frame
Aud Trouble marked the wrinkled brow,
When we must live, tho halt and lame.
We sadly think of then aud now.
When friends are scarce and dollars few
Life shows very different view
When we are old.
When death shall enter at our door
And grimly serve his summons bold,
W hen we shall suffer pain no more
And Mother Earth our form shall fold,
All. then will be our battle won
And brighter life but Just begun
When we are dead.

SamOans Love to Sing.

The love of song is found every
where prevalent among tho Samoans.
With these merry aud pleasure-loving
people song, according to Robert
Louis Stevenson, is almost ceaseless.
"The boatmau sings at his oar, the
family at evening worship, the girls
at night in the guest house; somc-
times the workman al his toll. No
occasion is too small for the poets and
musicians; death, visit, the days
news, the days pleasantly will be set
to rhyme and harmony. Even the
half-grown girls train choruses Of
children for festal celebrations"
