He was a character in Farquhar’s comedy of “The Beaux’ ; Stratagem,” written in 1707. ‘The Ravens of Alaska. The Alaska raven is a fine looking « bird, as large as a turkey, and, on close acquaintance, s real handsome fellow. His coat is a gloasier black than silk, and softer than velvet, while in a semi-shade the features are tinged with chat peculiar color so often seen on well preserved-blue-black bronze. It is funny to see these birds holding a con- jclave. Ten or a dozen alight on the ground and walk to the meeting place THE: with a stately erect step, every move ment cool and assured. Then an old bird steps gravely into the middle and the meeting begins with a series of harsh croaks, which gradually swell in volume until all the birds have joined in the debate. Along comes a dog, and for him they scatter, resuming their positions when he passes, until the meeting terminates, and they fly off to the beech and hills. These birds are seldom killed unless it be by some sailor in pure wantonness. If you examine the bills of these ravens, the peculiar sonstruction is remarkable. They are a vombination of chisel, scissors, dagger and gimlet. The bill forms an im- portant factor in the raven’s existence; for he has to dig on the beach for clams, bore the hard shell by repeated chipping, 2nd again in pure mischief he will tear and break anything that his bright, unerring eye lights upon. A Nice Manager. “Why, Jeremiah Brown! Is this you alive and in the flesh ?” exclaimed Mrs. Brown, as her husband returned from 2 short railroad journey. “Why, of course it’s me; ain’t thiv the time when I said I’d be back ?" said Mr. Brown, rgther testily. “And you ain’t been in no accident and got killed ?” “Do I look as if I was dead?” «And you ain't lost both legs and both arms, Jeremiah ?” “No, [ ain’t.” “Nor even one leg or one arm, or an eye 2” “No.” “And you ain’t so much as got hurt enough so yon can sit in the house and not work for a few months?” “How many times have I got to tell you there ain’t nothing happened ?” “Well, you do beat all! There you went and paid a dollar for an accident- insurance ticket just before you left, and you haven't done anything to get any money out of it. A whole dollar wasted for nothing! And you might just as well made ten thousand dollars if you'd only got killed ! Nice manager you are !” Convicts in the Charlestown (Mass.) but it was put out before much damage was done.
