Ravens, starlings and crows are be-
lieved to hold courts of justice to mete
out punishment to offenders. Sometimes
they assemble in great numbers. as il
they would give great dignity to the &C.
casion. The trial sometimes apparently
endures for many days. Some birds sit
at the conelave with lowered heads, some
merely cock their heads on the branches
and look grave, while others are most
garrulous and fill the air with their
complaints. Naturalists studying these
strange proceedings have. seen an appar-
ently selected number of birds fall upon
one or more of their number, at the close
of the trial" and put them to death, at
ter which they dispersed in orderly fash
ion and went quietly to their nests.-Har-
per's Weekly.
