Oh, it is not the deed of a noble heart which of a deed of trust, | can ruthlessly slauchter the little feathered j gsters of our forest—those brightest psalm- its of nature, who are ever reiterating their jubilant songs of praise, and thanksgiving, and love—whoso sweet, melodious voices come watted like incenee to us upon the summer zephyrs, and floating onward and upward through the grand old woods, are caught, and re-echoed with new power, and new beauty, and varying tones, by @ myriad ef tv>eful chorists, and the embowered branches «i the o’er-spreading trees ate converted into a grand orchestral temple. We love little birds: We delight, when suf- fering, and care, and sorrow, have left their impression on our mind, or some dark shadow of evil, or spirit of gloom, or genii of despair, ming our faculties, destroying our perception of enjoyment, and filling our very soul with the impress of melancholy, to stroll! into the woods, loaviag the artificial world behind us. forsaking the hum, and din, and turmoil of the city, turning our back, as it were, upon our fellow men, and shutting ourselves up in a close communion with the mysteries, and and beauties of nature. We love to cast ourselves upon the velvety emerald car- eting with which the bounteous hand of rovidence has so lavishly o’erspread the bosom of our common mother Earth, beneath the shadow of some giant oak. whose branches mantle, and struggle, and entwine about each other, covered with bright leaflets, that wave and flutter to and fro, like some enchained spirits of light, and forming a mystic tracery a st the clear blue vault of heaven— through which the beams of the king of day stragglo and reflect with mellow softness upon all beneath—wilding the trunk of the giant forest mon: » until it seems no vagary of fancy to think it some weird warrior of a by- gone age standing ereci in all the pride of armor, and shietd, and vizer, and helmet, who in the lone woods, like a true ki ht-errant, is waiting the approach of the falling upon yon violet. which hangs its f in medest confusion in being thus honored, and looks so much like a pearl just sprang up from amid the grand bright sea of emald. ook up into that branch, whose beauteous in sweeps to and fro, responsive to every breathing of the wind.

This is the home of the robin. There is a stight chirrup- ing in the fair castle, a faint. melodious scream of the young robins, who ara y: oring to compas i parent, and the flies forth agaia from her nest. ed the floor of her mansion h a tapestry with whose br of color and elastic man can yie. esigued by nature, and penciled and ¢ by the zephyrs of spring.

And when to these we have superadded the tea thousand choral songs of the festhered war- blers, in every varying tone of harmony and power, from the shrill treble chirp of the lit- tle wren, to the deep alto of the bob-a-link, or the sonorous basso of the flecker, it seems as if all about, above, arvuud—the very atmus- . itselfi—were alive with music in its : igh- ig of the trunk, as wonted tension And we are thankful for the birds. We feel that the woods without them would be like “Some banquet hat! deserted, Whose lamps are tied, whose glorious dead, And ail but Hope departed.”’ We should mias them in our morning walk. @ should miss their main songs at eventide. We should meet their main consolation for sorrow and despair in our rambles through the woods.

Let them lire to con- tinue their songs of goodness Let them live to brighten our worla of materiality and care with their ideal poctry. Let them live to peal their morning, noon, and evening anthems to the Giver of ail Good. Lat them five to im- plant in the minds of innocent children the first happy lessons of the true and beautiful in Nature. Let them live to keep eompany with their copartners of poctic beauty, the flowers. As you would manifest the refinement of your mind, the uprightness of your heart, the sea- sibility of your nature—don’t kill the birds. — Troy Daily Temes. ———- A Cowanrpive Arrair.—Not a little excite- ment was created in the Lexington marke: yesterday morning by the appoarance of a young lady, who visited the market, cowhide in hand, tor the purpose of revenging on a newly married man who had trified with her affection. She approached the false one as he was bysily engaged at his avocation of selling potatoes, and without uttering a sylla- ble, commenced the work of redressing ber grievances by adwinistering to him 2 rery severe flagellation. The attack was made at atime and under cireumstances which pre~ cluded the objectof her ire from defending himself and he could do nothing better than endure the chastisement. The tady cut hiut very severely about the face and greatly dis- figured his pnysiognomy. The reasun assigned for instituting this summary punishment, was recited by the lady, and is as follows: The vender of the potatoes has been courting the lady for about six months past, and a mar- riage contract haying been agrecd upon by them, she was daily in expectation of a union with him. A few days since she saw the an- nouncement of his marriage to another lad and determined to chastise him for his double dealing, and rections repaired to the mar- ket house and dealt with him as above stated. The occurrence caused a great deal.of talk in the market, and in erder to gota sight «a man who was whipped by a woman, mony persons called upon him for their potatoes aud ina short time be had disposed cf tis stoc! and returned to his newly wedded wif-, by whom he was doubtless consoled.—B alt simer, | wallk.”” | BIDDY MALORY’s car. | Mathew Maloney, "better known doys atthe mill as* Father Maton rote. ing from cuanto evening, was met at the gate by Biddy, his better half, in a high state of excitement “‘Mat,”’ says she “ there's a strange cat in the exbin.”’ “ Cast ber ont, thin, an’ don’t be botherin’ mre abort the baste.” “ Faix. an’ I've been sthrivin’ to do that | Same for the matther of tin minite past, but she’s jist beyond my rache, behint the red chist in the corner.

Things were turn- ed out o’ doors, Biddy’s petticoat buried, the bed, wh fortunately escaped, moved to a near neighbor's, the stove moved outside, and f week they kept house out of doors, by ch time, by dint of scrubbing. washing and ri the house was rendered once more habitable, but neither Mat or Biddy have for- gotten the “ strange cat."’ Tar Waear Crop.—According to the best ate we have seen, the whole product of wheat in the United States for the year 1855, exceed one hundred and ten milliogs of Estimating the home demani at half a pound of four per bead per day, and the number of consumers of wheaten bread at twenty-one millions, exclusive of slaves, who do not cousume much wheat—there will be re- quired ninety-four millions of bushels for home - mption. Now, when we consider that than twenty millions of bushels must ined for seed, it is evident that instead of having a serplus fer export abroad, there will not be eno wheat in market to meet tae home dem: by four millions of bushels. But potatoes, corn, buckwheat, and rye have yiclied abundantly, and will form so good a substitute fur wheaten bread, that £fteen or twenty millions of bushels ean probably be spared Bor the foreign market, should prices reach a much higher figure than at present It would seem from these facts that our bread is to cost us as much during the coming winter, as ever before. The crops were oon- siderably injured in several States by the dry weather last fall, and in other States by the fiy—and thus our wheat crop, although large, is less than was expocted.—Petersburg Be- press.
