THE 1K 10*11 IMGHTOGAI.E.
Tho fishermen along the Boyne often
stop ia their midnight work, to listen to
"Jenny Black cap," or the Irish Nightin
gale, as she trills out her exquisite notes.
White, in bis Natural History of Belborue,
says of this bird, that "he is superior to
any song-bird we bate, the nightingale
excepted '
A writer iu Science Gossip, for Septem
ber, gives tho following account of this
tiuy wonder, whose tuuctul throat give*
sweetest melodics o’uighls.
It is thought by many that the Black
cap and the Irish Nightingale are identi
cal. although the former has not been con.
sidercd a songster of the night
The Blackcap build* his nest in lulls of
gras* , so does tho bird 1 write of, though
sometimes his neat is lo be found slung
from four or five reeds woven together.
The Blackcap frequent* orchards and
gardens, feeding ou insects aud fruit; the
Irish bird " Is to be found there, too,
though more generally seen by the hanks
of rivers and low ground.
Book description of the plumage of birds
are so imperfect, that U is hard to judge
anything from their source . but the
Blackcap is always given a black creel,
while the Heed-sparrow, or Hedge-worb-
ler. is never given one, exce pt by Bewick,
who calls it the Black-headed Bunting -
Now, the Irish Nightingale) has adecidely
black crust, which he cau elevate and de
press Another remarkable feature is
the ring of white round the tlirost, which
give- a mailed appearance to this bird,
so as to make him e asily distinguish
able ;|ie two outer feathers of the tail
ate also white, and show it) high relief
when the tail is extended in flight; the
general-tone of the body leathers is grey
tall-brown, with a dash of green about the
wing Ah' is a small, graceful bird, and
• ways himself about while singing, his
throat throbbing as if it would burst , his
note is a soft, sweet, guttural trill, which
lie continues unceasingly all night long
He Is much valued as a cage bird ; but it
is very bard hr get one. it being Impossible
to keep an old bird in confinement, as
they pine awy w hen the season of mi
gration comes round, and it is very diffi
cult to And the nest, as the parent birds
will never go near it while any one is in
! sight. A guinea can be obtained for a
nest of healthy young ones, and boys are
I mi the lookout for them all through the
! breeding season.

, cap, a migratory bird, leaving us about
j the middle of September, and returning
I again in April.
[ We clip front the Now York World the
following delightful letter from the late
good Bishop Kastburn ]
A l.cllcr from lliw * n(, llialmp
Vlauiou lluellturn.
To tht Editor of The WorUl .
Sir —When some years siucu your cor
respondent placed In a volume some of his
memories of the active lldd of life of w hich
he had been observer, a copy, of the work
was sent to Bishop Kastburn, who was
then at Hie sea-shore. 1 had so pleasantly
and kindly known the good Bishop. Of
him. as a defender of the fuitb, ss a gentle
man, and as the diocesan of the very im
portant diocese of Massachusetts the value
I knew. We had together made a pleas
ant excursion to that strong sentinel of
the sea, Minot's Light, and passed a day
of such incident as could not he forgotten
When the book reached him he returned
the acknowledgment in the letter which I
now publish. The sketch he gives is hut
a glance, but it shows the magnitude of
the circle in which he moved. Well may
the mourning for the good old man he
earnest and profound. He seemed as one
to whom the years that come "by reason
of strength would arrive, and his death
so soon is as a surprise ; hut, sooner or
later, his was a record that writes dignity
upon the history of his church.
Hock lard House I
N'antaskktßkach. July 27, 186'J j
Mv Ukak Mb. l have to thank you
with all my heart for your gift of "who
got* there!"’ It lias carried me in a sweet
though sad voyuge up "the river of my
years.” aud brought back with vividness
scenes and persons belonging to the days
of boy hood, youth, and middle life—days
now gone forever. I found a kindred
pleasure and for the same reason, in read
ing Jlr. Edmund Quincy’s life of his father
but Hie range of your volume is more ex
tensive. and it has been to me, who lived
so long in New York, a most precious
memorial of “auld laug *yno."
I shall never forget when, r.s a boy, I
saw Gouverneur Morris, with liis grand
nobleman'* lues,and powdered hair en gueu
und splendid wooden leg! walking up the
aisle of the C edar Street Church, and then
heard him sound forth from the pulpit
that first sentence of Ids oration. "Tis
done the long agony is over, the Bonbons
are restored."
Philip Church's father. John B Church,
I knew, and his mother, with his sister,
Mrs Alexander Hamilton, often visited our
house in Hudson square, and away buck in
18(18, used to pat " the little English boy ”
on the check and give him a kiss.
Aaron Burr's return to New York I well
recollect, and the horror w ith which I used
to look at him. With Albert Gallatin I
liuve often conversed, and remember the
brllliuucy ami vast information with which
lie Illumined every subject. Citizen Genet
(Edmond C.) talked with an elegance of
language and idiomatic correctness of Eng
lisli that was wonderful, and to me a per
fect fascination.
1 recollect the eclipse of 1306, and many
years afiei wards another eclipse w liicli you
mention, in the shape of a horse. The great
comet of 1611 had me for one of its awe
struck observers
Thomas Morris ami his beautiful wife
(uee Kane) were very intimate with us and
dearly do 1 cherish the memory of them
both. How often she lin* kissed me when
1 was seven and eight years old. (l)on’l
you envy me v ) *
How well 1 recollect the Car of Nep
tune. und the Paragon which was to ac
complish all a steamboat could accomplish,
and 1 saw also the llrst steamboat
Chancellor Kent 1 knew as Chief Jus
tice. and Him as Chancellor, exhibiting
the simplicity of the child in unison with
tlie intellectual strength of the giant , and
Vau Ness, who died iu South Carolina of
a broken heart, 1 often saw. I recollect
that Joseph Bonaparte looked more like
an Kngish gentleman than a Frenchman
Like yourself, 1 was present, in 1637, when
J oil n tjuincy Adams delivered the oration
on Lafayette, in the Middle Dutch Church,
ami vvlmt a glorious treat it was. Aud
what shall 1 say of the impression made on
tnc as a boy of ten bv my first sight of that
august hiokiug man, DeWltt Clinton ? It
was wlieu he sat on the Bench as Mayor
in tbu old Wall street City Ilall at the trial
of Guliau C. Yerpianck. Hugh Maxwell,
aud others, for making a riot at the college
commencement In Trinity Church in 1611.
To Clinton l paid my heart tribute at the
semi centennial commemoration of Colum
bia College, when 1 was appointed to de
liver the oration.
I spoke to I.nthor Brudish for the last
time at the Bible Society anniversary not
loug before his death. He was a noble
man in uiuuucrs, aud .u* full of benevolence
as of information and intelligence and a
real Christian, if ever one lived.
1 kuew Washington Irving well. What
an eye. with humor aud melancholy strug
gling iu it for the mastery 1 shall never
fotget meeting him at Northampton, when
he gave viva voce s description of his
visit to Abbotsford, which a short time af
terward he portrayed in the printed page
1 met Feniuiore Cooper frequently at
Thomas iiammersley’s, in Greenwich
street, w here several person went by imi
tation to practise, in company with for
eigners, the speaking of French and
Italian Cooper was a man of genius, but
one of the mo-t uncomfortable, dogmatic
persons in intercourse 1 ever knew. Meet
ing Mrs Opie at breakfast in London, she
asked me, “Does thee know Mr. Feuimore
Cixjper? He is a very clever mau and a
very tine (handsome) man, but I must say
he is a very ill tempered man.”
1 look back to the weekly conrertaiion**
of Dr. Hosack at bis house in Chambers
street with so much mournful pleasure
How many brilliant men and women I
have seen there w hom the grave has since
received. You have truly delinea’ed Sir
John Frankliu. He had oue of the nobleat
and most melancholy'countenance* that I
ever saw I dined in company with him
at the house of Mr. Henry Cary, in New
York, iu 1.825. Captain Back and Sir
John Richardson were also present.
Lockhart 1 often met iu society in Lon- 1
don many yeurs ago. and he was as cold
in intercourse as you describe him to be
with his pen.
I first saw Webster in 1825, at General
Sumner’s house, at Dorchester, and as a
voung man. listened with rapture to ti e
gay and witty talk between him and Mr.
Van Burcu. Sadness and disappointment
had not written their lines on his mighty
brow.
I often beard in the courts of New York
Thomas Addle Emmet, with that classical
diction which threw a charm round even
the driest insurance case.
I recollect Ogden Hoffman iu tho war
of 1812 as a midshipman, with his dirk by
bis side On the Wednesday night when
the great fire of 1835 took place, he went
home with me from my church, and we
sat talking, with little thought of the fact—
we knew it not—that the flames were de
stroying $20,00(1,UIJO of property.
I have heard Calhoun, and have seen
him sitting, with head like Jupiter Tonans
in Senate.
| Alter words of kindest expression to
wards my volume which yeur correspond
ent indeed cherishes, the good Bishop
concludes iu words not to be forgotten by
any man whe reads them]:
Iu thus going backward to the past
bow forcibly are wo impressed, my dear
sir, with the utter vanity of life und the
emptiness of human glory. All these,
men have left a stage on w hich they once
moved a9 the chief figures. Let us who
remain consider anu be wise, and seek a
share through faith in the ull sufficient
righteousness of our Redeemer iu that
life w hich is alone worth living for—"eter
nal in the heavens.” I am, faithfully,
your obliged, Makton Eastbur.v.
i A life touching so many brilliant points

g on in titling companionship,upwaid uud
award in his grand profession, has been
ne impressed with usefulness. For him
the good old rule sufliceth.
I see with delight the masterly sketch of
his character and career by his brother in
the mitre, Bishop Huntington. It is writ
ten w ith the grace and ea9C of a charming
English magazine article, und w bile 1 think
it is rather 100 marked in apology and de
fence of a man who was a strength in him
self, yet il is a testimony worthy of eulogized
and eulogist. Was the life of the fathers of
the church a playtime with crosses —an ex
ercise with genuflexions—a posture—a re
suscitation of formalities—a forgetfulness of
the Reformation ? Did those men mean
that their church should float aloug iu a
tepid sea, not satisfied to bo Protestant —
not daring to Ire Roman Catholic ? At all
events, the man who has just died dared to
abide by the old truth. Sentinel.
I'm NWLIS AND HIS Papkb.—Soon after
bis establishment in Philadelphia, Frank
lin was offered a piece for publication in
his newspaper. Being very busy, liq
begged the gentlemen would leave it for
consideration. The next day the author
called, aud asked his opinion of it. “Why,
sir,” replied Franklin, "I am sorry to say
I think it highly scurrilous and defama
tory.”
But being at a loss on account of my
poverty, whether to reject it or not, I
thought 1 would put it ti> this issue. At
night, when my work was done, I bought
a two penny loaf, on which I supped
heartily, and then wrapping myselfiu my
m eat coat, slept very soundly on the floor
till morning, when another loaf aud mug
of water afforded a pleasant breakfast.
Now, sir, siuce I can live very comfortably
in this manner, why should I prostitute
my press lo personal haired or party pas
sion for a mere luxurious living?”
One cannot read this anecdote of our
American sage without thinking of Soc
rates reply to King Arcbelaus, who had
pressed him to give up preaching iu the
dirty streets of Athens, and come and live
with him in his splendid court "Meal,
please your Majesty, is a half-penny n
peck ut Athens, and water I get for noth

Putting Lightning in a Bottle.
From All the Year Bound.]
It may be mentioned that in one of
Franklin's letters, written apparently be
fore the year 1750. the points of resem
blance between lightning and tho spark
obtained by D iction from an electrical ap
paratus are distinctly stated. It is but
some thirty years ago that Andrew Cross
the famous amateur electrician, was asked
by an elderly gentleman who came to wit
ness his experiments with two enormous
Leyden jars charged by menus 'of wires
stretched for miles among the forest trees
near Taunton
"Mr. Cross, dou’t you think it is rather
impious to bottle the lightning?
"Let me answer your question by ask
ing another,' said Cross laughing. Dou'i
you tbiuk it might be considered rather
impious to bottle tbc rain water ?"
