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.

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.

[ 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 intercourse with his fellow-men and go 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 ing " 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 ?" YK W ADV i: KTI SUM EY IS FOR RENT.
