Ornitho logy.

The strangest sound in field or grove,
By which the soul is stirred,
Is now the dulcet warbling of
The Ananias Bird.
He has no feathers and no wings;
He is a biped queer;
Sometimes he's joyous when he sings,
And sometimes quite severe.
Sometimes he looks quite like a goose;
Sometimes his note is "quack!''
And, like the parrot, it's no use
To ask him to take back.
The simple phrases he'll repeat
So carelessly and free.
He's loudest, in his safe retreat,
When he is up tree.
Sometimes of stocks and worldly things,
Sometimes of creatures wild,
Is the strange melody he sings;
And men are oft beguiled.
And like the sailor in his bark,
When siren tones are heard,
We tremble and we mutter, "Hark!
The Ananias Bird!'

Unlighted Naval Launches.

The shocking disaster in Hampton roads
Monday night, the greatest catastrophe
which the navy has suffered since the war

wholly upon their own ability to get out
of the way of other vessels, they have

Graduates.
From the Baltimore American.

The commencements are pouring out a
crowd of learned young men and women on
the world. But, after all, knowledge Is
power; the world cannot have too much of
it, and these young men and women, en-
joying all the advantages of the age in
the way of education and culture, are better
fitted for the battle of life and more quail
fled to push on the higher civilization a
step farther in their own generation. The
world is growing better and more enlight-
ened all the time. and it Is these bright
young minds. bringing freshness and en-
thusiasm to the old learning, which helps
materially to make it so.

at night, in compliance with the federal

held itself immune from it's own statutes In
this respect, and investigation may prove
that ii has paid dearly for its sef-granted

the naval launches should not carry the
