tleman laid down small coop containing
TWO handsome carrier pigeons, on the stoop
OF the City hall at the head of Exchange
street. The gentleman was Mr.. G. B.
Faunce of Jamaica Plains. Mass, whose son
owns an extensive cote. devoted to carrier
pigeons, in that town, which as is we'll
known, is situated but IL few miles out of
Boston. Mr.. Faunce stated that he had
occasion to come to Portland on business,
and his son requested him to bring the birds
down and release them in front of City hall
SO that it could be ascertained how quickly
they would make the trip to Jamaica Plains.
One of the birds was a pure white, and
both bore those peculiar excrescencies
about the head that denotes the breed of
carriers. AS soon as they were released from
the box they winged their way straight as
an arrow up into the sky forsperhaps hum
ured and fifty feet, and then. with but a
single circle. flew off on dead straight line
for Boston. Mr.. Faunce said that his son
expected they would apply for admittance
to the cote at Jamaica Plains by p. m. at
least. Several gentlemen who were in the
vicinity of City hall at the time witnessed
the release of the pigeons. -

Wild Flowers of America.

For school children studying botany
this work should prove invaluable, for
in such highly interesting manner are
the fora described that one cannot fail
to be interested.
1t is to more thoroughly familiarize
Americans with their incompatible wild
flowers in detailed form and color that
this work was designed. Ever since it's
first pages were commenced, the pub
fishers were earnestly urged by leading
botanists to resist all temptation to
make fanciful pictures, as is SO generally
done in commemorative cards. Great
stress was laid on the advisability of Civ
ing each flower just as it grows, lust
as it looks in nature. Only by this
method could it have it's highest educa-
tional value. The success of the work
proves the value of this advice, for it is
everywhere being received with a most
cordial welcome. The parts complete
will embrace several hundred plates,
treating of the flowers of every State
and Territory in the Union, and will
