and the neighborhood, have gotten
up, with most commendable enter
prise, a museum They have collect
ed together quite a number of speci-
mems consisting of stuffed birds, the
skeletons Of various animals and
quite a lot Of varied curiosities- The
building in which these valuable
specimens are stored, is a small house
on Warren street. The boys take
quite a pride in this enterprise, and
devote a great deal of their time to
its furtherance. They do a great deal
