Scme years ago, as Captain B , of steamer ‘ \Vater \Nitch,’ was passing down the Arkansas River, they had pressing need of an axe, and not having one on board. at the first landing the boat rounded to, Captain B-â€"â€" dispatched an Irishman to the nearest cabin in quest of one.â€" Prctty soon Patrick returned with an axe; but when, after haring used it, the captain ordered him to return it. he refused point- blank. ‘ Shure and I’d spake to lhe haste no more.’ ‘ But what is the reason W urged Captain Bâ€"â€"â€". ‘ Slture lhen au’ I’ll tell ye.

Certain cultivators, annoyed by the depredations commit- ted by the common robin up- on their cherry trees, have lately discovered, as they supâ€" pose, that this bird is of no service to agriculture. They accuse him of living upon fruit and earthâ€"worms alone, alleging that he de- stroys but very few of the in- sects which are. injurious to vegetation. Herein they are astray by a very egregious error, and one that might pro- duce inealculable mischief were they to succeed in conâ€" ‘vincing the public that the robâ€" in is an enemy to the garden and the farm. Nothng can be further from the truth. It I If the robins were to be ex- terminath the mischievous consequences that would en- sue could never be repaired ex- cept by restoring them, cer- tainly not within a period of twenty years. Let us enu- merate some of the insects that are kept in check by the labors of the robin. He des- troys nearly all kinds ofworms, grubs and caterpillars that live upon the green sward and the cultivated soil; and large quantities ofcrickcts and grass- hoppers before they have be- come perfect insects. The grabs of locusts, ofharvest-flies and of beetles, which are turn- ed up by the plow or the hoe, and the pupae of the same when emerging from the soil; apple worms when they leave the fruit and crawl about in quest of a new shelter, and those subterranean caterpil- ’l‘he robin is not a searcher for small insects that live up- on the bark and leaves of trees. Ile seeks his food like the other Ihrushes, mostly up- on the ground; and is often seen, after a rain, pulling out earth-worms from their holes. This circumstance has led many to suppose that he con- fines himself to these. It is true that he devours great quantities of earth-worms, but they are only a small part of his diet. He also consumes large numbers of those grubs which occasionally appears on the surface of the soil. These are taken only by cer- tain species of birds. Neither the woodpecker, nor the clue kadee, nor the wazwing, nor any species of swallow, nor the king-bird, norany oftlln fly-catchers, nor that excell- ent friend of the garden, the golden oriole, take their food from the ground. What pro- vision then has nature made to rid the surface of the soil of its noxious insects? Among the small birds the thrushes seem to be designed for this special purpose; and ofall the species of this tribe none is more beneficial than the com- mon robin. is in fact one ofthe most valu- able of our birds, exceeded only by the small woodpecker and the Chickadee in the ser- vice he performs by checking the multiplication of noxious insects. Let us make a few inquiries respecting his habits. What‘constitutes the food of this bir‘d'ldurinér eight months of the year when there are no fruits in the garden or pasture? It can not be said that he lives upon seeds, for he refuses seeds of all kinds unless they are crushed and made into a dough; and if a youngr robin is fed chiefly on farinaceous food in a state of confinement, he will sicken and die. The plain inference is, that when he can not obtain fruit, he lives upon worms and 1nsects. 1f angle-worms are the principal part of his diet, how does he continue to obtain them “hen the superficial soil is dry, and they are lodged in the subsoil? He can not get them at any time except when they are either wholly or partially above ground. He can not dig or scratch fer them, and must consume other insects or he would starve. And when we consider the vast multitudes ofrobins in our land, and their voracious apeetites, when we consider likewise that they live exclusively upon insects and worms, when fruit is not to be obtained, we must admit that the quantity of crawling vermin consumed by these birds must be immense and altogether beyond calculation. T here are no other birds that could supply their place, since the other thrushes are too shy to frequent our tilled grounds. The larks, the snipes and blackbirds are likewise all too shy to perform aneqaal amount of the same service. PLEA FOR THE ROBIN. “ Whole cornfields,” says Dr. Harris, “ are sometimes laid waste by them. Cab- bage-plants, till they are grown to a considerable size, are very apt to be cut 011‘ and destroyed by them. Potato vines, beans, beets and various other culin- ary plants sutl'er in the same way. The products of our flowerâ€"gardens are not spared ; asters, balsains, pinks and many other kinds of flowers are often shorn of their leaves and oftheir central buds, by these concealed spiders.”â€"â€"Re- port, pan 343. The services of the robin in destroying alone would more than pay for all the fruit they devour. Indeed, during the breeding season, a robin is seldom seen without one ofthese caterl iflars or some similar grub in his month, which he designs for his young; and as the robin often raises three broods of youngr during the season, his species must destroy more of this class of noxious insects than almost all other birds together. A Warm 'ro LITTLE GIRLS.â€" Who is lovely? It is the little girl who drops sweet words, kind re- marks, and pleasant smiles, as she passes along; who has a kind word of sympathy for every girl or boy she meets in trouble, and a kind hand to help her companions out of dilficulty ; who never scolds, never contends. never teases her mother, nor seeks in any way to diminish, but always to increase her happi- noss. \Vould it not please you to pick up a string of pearls, drops of gold, diamonds, or precious stones, as you pass along the streets?

The lad lhoughl the weapon was not loaded, and was playfully present- ing it at his sister, It must be idle to dispute the fact that in certain places the robins are very mischiev- ous in their depreciations upon the cherry trees. There is one good remedy for this evil, which was suggested some weeks since by a correspon- dent ofthe Farmcr. This rem- edy is to plant a greater quan- tity of cherry trees ; for it will be found that whereever there is a great abundance of this fruit the robins do compara- tively but little damage. One very important cause of their depredations is the destruction of the. blueberry pastures, which would supply them with large quantities of berries about cherry time. It is pre- cisely in those sections ot the country, as in Cambridge and the suburbs of Boston, where the blueberry bushes have been extirpated from the wild lands, we hear the most complaint against the robin. Our tar- mers, when they clear a whor- tleberry pasture, should trans- plant all the blue-berry bush' es to the sides of the walls and fences, to supply the fru- giverous birds with berries and thereby divert them from the gardens. There are thou- sands of miles of stone wall, within two hours walk from Boston, which ought to be bordered with bluebery bushes and amelanchiers, (June ber- ries.) where, Without occupy- ing any valuable space, they would feed the birds and pro- duce tons ofberries, to employ the diligent hands of women and children of poor families, who would gather them for the market. Let those horticultu- rists who have conceived a prejudice against the robin, in- stead of petitioning the Legis- latnre to remote the legal pro-l tection that now exists in fa- vor of this bird, petition the authorities of the city of B03- ton to appropriate a few thou- sand dollars for planting of blueberry bushes and amelan~ chiers by the side of fences in all pasture lands within five miles of the city; and after the work is accomplished we shall hear no more complaints ofthe robin and the cedarbird. â€"â€".N.

Dr. Morse was me first man to esmblish me (am that all diseases arise from IMPURITY OF THE BLOODâ€"that our strength, health and life depended upon this vital fluid. \Vhen the various passages become clogged. and do not act in perfect harmony with the dil'. {er-ant functions of the body. the blood loses its action, becomes thick. corrupted and diseased : thus causing all pains. sickness and distress of every mime: our strength is exhausted. our health we are deprived of. and if nature is not assisted in tnrowing ofl’ the stagnant hunters. the blood will hecorne choked and cease to act. and thus our light of life will be forever blown out. How important then that we should keep the various passages of the body free and open. And how pleasant to us that we have it in our power to put a medicine in your reach. namely. Morse’s Indian Root Pills. manufactured from plants and roots which grow around the menu tanious clifl's in Nature’s Garden. for the health and recovery of diseased man. One of the roots from which these Pills are made is a Sudorific. which opens the pores of the skin. and assists Nature in throwng outthe finer parts of the corruption within. The second is a plant which is an Expectorant. that opens and unclogs the passage to the lungs by copious spitting. The third is a Diuretit‘. which gives ease and double strength to the kidneys; thus encouraged. they draw large amounts of im- purity l'rom the blood. which is then thrown out bountil'tllly by the urinary or water passage. and which could not have been discharged in any other way. The fourth is a Cuthartic. and accompanies the other properties of the Pills while engaged in purifying the blood ; the coarser particles of impurity which cannot pass by the other outlets. are thus taken up and conveyed ofl’ in great quantities by the bowels From the above. it is shown that Dr. Movse‘s Indian Root Pills not only enter the stomach. but become united with the blood, for they find their way to every part. and complete- ly routand release the system from all impurity. and the life of (he budy, which is the blood. becomes perfectly healthy '. consequently all sickness and pain is drivan from the system. for they cannot remain when the body becomes so pure and clear. 25 cents per box. five boxes will ha soul on receipt of $1. postage paid. {33 Dr. Morse's Indian mot Pills are sold by 111' Julian in Medicines.

The reason why people are so distressed when sick. and whv so many die, is because they do not get a medicine which will pass to the ntfiicted parts. and which will open the natural passage for the disease to be cast out ; hence, a large quantity of food and other matter is lodged. and the stomach and intestines are literally overflowing with the corrupted mass ; thus undergoing disagreeable fermentation). constantly mixing with the blood. which thi‘oWs the corrupted matter through every vein and artery. until life is taken from the body by disease.
