Sometimes he tried to sing so as not to appear ungrateful, for the children really seemed to mean kindly, but when he broke down in his first trill, the man and his wife looked disgusted, and once or twice he beard them say: "Well, they told us at the sale that he was a beautiful singer, but he doesn't seem able to sing a bit." But, after all, what did they know or thantheydid about singing 'i No a g g about the sorrows which had stifled his song and robbed him of the power of which he was once so proud. It was getting quite unbearable. A fewweeks ago he had been wont to look out of the window at the birds in the garden with a sort of pitying contempt, con- sidering them a kind of vagrants, with- out any settled home or people to at- tend to them when they wanted sugar or seed, or water for a bath. Bat now he had comae to think that they were better off than he was—at any rate, in his present circumstances. At the worac, they were free, and could fly where they liked, but no one ever opened the door of his cage now, how- ever mode: he fluttered against the bars, and this idea had gettevn upon until the desire to esca.pehad be - him a came as nearly a passion as a canary could be possessed with. At last an opportunity offered itself. One of the children, when there was nobody else in the rooml, opened his cage .door and tried to catch him. He eluded the intruding hand, slipped out over the little red arm, and in another moment had fluttered out of an open window and perched on a green tree, stn the full light and warmth of the midsummer afternoon sun. He rested there a bit after his ex- citement, x- ci t d then went farther afield temeaz an flying . the en air a buthe found ha op very laborious business, and the more he saw of the great new world into which he had escaped the less he liked it. It was too big and unhomeiy-look- ing; and it seemed peopled with dread- ful creatures. At last,eafter much flying and flut- tering hither and thither, he had reach- ed a pleasant place indeed, like an enormous garden full of trees and flow- ers, and a multitude of white stones, and little marble buildings that looked like houses, although no one seemed to go into them or come ,out of them Twitters could, So sudden a change had lot in life that he was completely be- wildered by It, It was a very bad change, too, and in addition to being be- wildered, he was also very sad indeed at heart. Several times he had tried to sing, brut his efforts were discouraging ; the notes that used to come so easily seemed to stick in -his throat, and after an in- troductory chirp ar two the trills which he, once excelled at stuck and broke off short, and he lapsed into a moody sil- ence., only relieved by a feeble frag- mentary little twitter which was his way of saying that life seemed hardly worth living, Twitters was only a canary, but he had his feelings, and as he had been brought up in the. lap of luxury, and had never known that there was such a. thing as misfortune in the world, un- til it fell like a thunderbolt in a calm sea, the blow had very nearly broken her tender little heart. A ,fortnight ago his daintily gilded °age had hung in one of the prettiest rooms imaginable. It had been the very luxury of imprisonment ; in fact, it was not imprisonment at all, because the door had nearly always stood open, and he had perfect liberty to go out when he chose, and flutter about the room, or, as he usually preferred to do, to make a tour of it perched on the shoulder, ar sometimes on the out- stretched finger, of his mistress—as beautiful and light-hearted a girl as ever listened to the love -song of a can- ary, or tried to imitate his notes with her ow.a pretty lips. And very often some one else used to be in. the room—a well-dressed, good- looking young fellow, who was wont to playfully ehof£ his mistress about the rivalry that was supposed to exist between them. 1 mean, of course, be- tween the man and the canary—"Lola's two lovers," as he used to call them. That was absurd enough—the idea of a man, and a canary being rivals for a ,girl's affection; and yet there was no doubt about it; she seemed to love them both very much, and both of them certainly loved roar, though h whose g love was the truer and stronger, time had yet to show. And now this gilded cage with the door fast shut, was hung up in quite a, different sort of room; not an un- comfortable one by any means, but al- together lacking in the luxurious ar- tistic refinement of the first home. The people, too, were quite different. There was a stout woman and a rath- er cross man who came in of an even- ing, generally tired, and usually a lit- tle out' of temper. And there were also three or four noisy children, who used to came and run their fingers along up wad went to dinner.

The Pitiable Plight or a Vanilla to 11c1v, fouudlamd The Rev. R. Montague Bickle, of Spoon Cove, Burin, Newfoundland, writes as follows to the Montreal Wit- ness:—I feel compelled to forward you the details of one of the saddest and most distressing cases that ever carne under my notice. Joseph Harding and ]tis eldest son, who is about fourteen,, were compelled througb poverty to go` into the, woods and cut timber to pay for a barrel of flour they had recent- ly received. After ane hard day's work with very little to eat, they were ready to float the timber across a large pond, but found the ice had formed and that it was not frozen sufficiently to walk on, and too much ice to float it across. The night was almost upon them and they decided to erecta little shelter and remain all night. They tried to light a fire, but to their sad disappointment the matches were wet and all attempts; to ignite them were futile. The, morning dawned and they both decided tosepar- ate to go to two snares they had set for rabbits.

A despatch from Colliers, W. Va., says: David Snyder recently explored an old mine near here which has not been worked since the 00's, and discover- ed human bones. One of the skeletons was sitting upright against a ledge. Beside this skeleton was found a flask containing a note which explained the mysterious disappearance of John Ewing. Ben Ayers, Tom Ackelson, and Joe Obney, thirty-two years ago. The notes were written in pencil, but well preserved. They read as follows:— November 2, e863,—Should this ever reach the outside world, let it be known that we (giving names) are prisoners here, owing to the caving -in of the mine. We are deserters, and were in hiding here when the mine caved in. Food and water all gone. We are doomed, as no one outside is aware of our hereabouts. This is about the eighth day of imprisonment. November 4,—John Ewing and Tom Ackelson have just killed Ben Ayers and are eating him. I have already eaten my bootleg. The water in the ole g mine is terrible. Our oil is getting scarce, air becoming foul. I only know the day of the month by my watch. November 0,—Ewing has just killed Ackelson, cut off one of his feet, and is eating it, and dancing around and flourishing his dirk like a maniac. November 7,—I am now alone with the dead. I had to kill Ewing in self- defence. I have just eaten my other bootleg. Am sleepy. .Good-bye.
