CJJV A BIRD REASON?
In an article on i' !s sohjeef, T
M. Brewer remarks: Of thc: seven
kindt of (he swallow family inhab-
iting North Amerce, all but one
are known to have Undergone a
more or lees complete anil radical
change of life, ee<;k:ng the' protec-
tion auTi companionship of man, and
making great and important chang
es in their neM'ng,' both las to lo
cation and architectural structure.
These evidences of reasoning
power in birds are by to means
confiftfd to the swallow family.
We see its manifestations in the
change of hab'ts of even the
proverbially not over'iutelligont
gull, which at grand Manan, taught
by generations of persecutions, and
robbed of its eggs with ruthless
greed by man, no longer rests on
the treacherous shore, but with its
clumsy webbed feet buslds itself a
net in hiuh and inaccessible forest
trees. We see it loo in that in-
tense caution nvscalied cunning,
with which that poop persecuted
imt^of peace prepare for
) an old und, wise maxim,
pften too late to prepare for

would lai i, ultv n:sd a single book
io llie way I thouid direct. She
consented.
It was at tho time of Kossuth's
visit, when everybody was talking
nbont the t!'inirnrinn revolution.
The book 1 choso was "Dungarv
in isis," by Brace, a book of far
more interest then than now, I
prescribed it in daily doses of one
chapter. If possible she was to
read that—thechapters being short
—but under no conceivable cir-
cumstances was she to reud more
than that. After each chapter she
was to put down, in a blank book
I gave her, some re«ark suggested
by it. She must's^ntton "some'
thing that had interested her, or
seek the explanation of some
word, or anything else she pleased.
Iler comment might be only to
say that Oeorgey was a traitor,
or lo-Inauire liow. Uis-natoe
bo pronounced ; but at least there
iru?t be one sentence ol remark per
chapter. From time to time I was
to see what she had written, and
answer her questions, if any.
This was the preset pt.oo, and she
took it cn'irs^-ous y
I knew in advance what would
be the greatest difficulty. It was
tp keep her to one ci <pter. Ii
seemed to her such a mistaka, such
a waste of opportunity, when e^ie

chapters in a day. Bad she done
ao, all would have been lost, so 1
was inexorable. ■' T;t cjwjaence
was that she sever failed to read
her ci apter ; and when she got to
the end of it, for want of anything
better to do, she would read it
over agait, and went to work
with her noto book. It was a
very interesting book, and she
wrote a beautiful hand. When I
came lo look over the pages, every
few days, 1 was astonished at tbe
copiousness and va'iet«'of her notes*
Ou Bimo days, to bo sufp, there
would be but a single sentence, and
that visibly written with effect;
but almost always there were
questions, doubts aud criticisms'
ail of which I met as I could. 1
found my own mind taxed by
hers, and fina'ly read every chap-

Where was tbe magic of the
process? I supyose mainly in the
restraint, the moderate pace and
the necessity of writing something.

Irish Potatoes.—Tbe Irish peo-«

tbe wor!J, and all know about cook-
ing tlhit fine esculent. We copy
their mode of boiling potatoes from
an frisb paper; 'Put the potatoes
ina pot or kettle without a lid or
cover, and with water justsuffiolgnt
to cover tbem. After tbe water
boils pour it off, and replace it
with cold water, into which throw
a good portion of salt. Tbe cold
sends the heat from the surface to •
the heart, and makes the potato
irealy. After tbdy are boiled and
the water poured off let thea*.
stand on tho fire fifteen minutes to
dry.'
It is mentioned as a curious fact bv

and the sycamore trees are never '
