Harmon Not Talking Much.

WASHINGTON, Jan. l3. - Attorney
General Harmon was seen at his office
and questioned as to the probable
course the government would pursue
with respect to the Pacific railroads,
now that the funding bill had failed.
Beyond the statement that some action
probably would be taken within the
next 80 days he declined to discuss the
matter. /. 1t is believed, however, that
the first step wilkbe against the Union
Pacific, inasmuch as foreclosure pro-
>ceodings instituted on the first lien
holders of that road are NOW pending
in the courts.

JUOsoN HARMON, ATTORNEY GENERAL

to the United States the COM
panies, under the authority granted
by the act Of 1864, issued
bonds amounting to S64, 613. O0O\which
since have, by act of congress-, become
a first lien on the roads. 1t is the opin-
ion of many that before the govern.
ment could initiate foreclosure proceed.
ings it would be compelled to secure
the interests Of the first lien holders.
This, however, is not the opinion Of AS
sistant Attorney General Russell, who
holds to the opinion that congress can
legally declare a forfeiture Of the land
grants and property of the roads on the
ground of conditions broken.

QUARRELSOME BIRDS.
The MISSED Thrush Is Cruel and Pitl-
less.

The robin, that 'pious" bird, is very
quarrelsome, and it exasperates one to
watch him wasting the precious hours
in hunting another hungry robin down,
and round and round, till the sparrows
have cleared the board, says the Con-
temporary Review. The blackbirds, too,
are very annoying in the way that they
snatch up lump of bread and fly off
with ii, only to be chased about for the
rest of the morning by other black
birds, while a sparrow makes a square
meal off the morsel fallen meanwhile
under a shrub. But, relentless as they
are in pursuit, the curious fact is that
they seldom fight. If the pursued
turns, the pursuer stops, ks up his
tail, and, being promptly charged by
the other, becomes in turn the pur-
sued. But woe to both when the missed
thrush comes. He is pitiless in pur-
suit, and 1 have seen them pass my
window time after time in the course Of
a morning, the storm cock hard on the
heels" of the blackbird. And when
they overtake them what happens? For
myself, / have often said before be-
lieve the missel thrush a cannibal. At
any rate, attribute some of the dead
blackbirds and thiushes that one finds
about the grounds to his cruel beak He
watches for birds or hours at time,
like bird of prey, and attacks like one.
have often stopped a chase which
I knew could only end in one way.
