Tho name of the broom maker who had his leg broken the other day is Mat tbew B. Fnlghem, aud the accident ce cuired in a different manner from what we first heard. It seems that Mr. Ful ghem lives on East Chappell street, and ono evening just about dark he found that a horse, which had been tied to graze in the street in front of his house, h ad tangled its legs in tho rope and fal lendown. While kindly trying to ex tncate the animal from its tronbles, the horse fell upon him and breke one thigh right in two.- As a consequence he will be laid up for a couple of months; aud to make the matter worse, he is confined to one room of a new ne gro cabin, where he had beeu obliged to' shelter while waiting to seenre a house. Mr. Fulgbem was born nudiaised near Macou and has a wife and one child. He had only beeu at work here a short time, and has no resources to tide him over his misfortune, He seems very cheerful, however, and doubtless the kind people of-this community will see that he and bis family do not suffer.

A Common but Erroneoui ImpreMloB. Several Interesting Caee*. Most people probably Imagine that birds sing by instinct; that the aong of the robin is as natural to him aa his red breast, that the Hue bird is not more liable name to to cnange change its us noth now than man its color; , and that, untaught, , the the nightingale nlgf “ will always always sing sing the the same oarne is beautiful beautif song. song, This common im Kir^vriil however, is erroneous. Young „ never sing the song peculiar to their tribe If they have never heard it, but if associated with some other bird, will learn its song instead. A redstart once built its nest under the eaves of a house where a caged chaffinch hung in a window underneath. The redstart learned the chaffinch’s song. Another redstard was noticed to repeat the notes of a blackcap which had its hest close by. The winchat and wheatear have- nat¬ urally but little variety of notes, but will become much better songsters if confined with other birds, and the bullfinch can be taught to whistle complete tunes, al¬ though its own natural notes are harsh and insignificant. On the other hand, tho nightingale in confinement will some¬ times exchange its own beautiful song for that of some other bird that it may hear. The Hon. Dairies Barrington says that he saw a linnet which had been taken from -the trbea. - cr three days old, and which, not having any other sounds to imitate, almost learned to articulate, and could repeat the words “pretty boy” and some other short sentences. He educated nestling linnets under the hest singing larks —-the skylark, woodlark and titlark— every one of which, instead of the lin¬ net’s song, adhered entirely to that of their respective instructors. When the note of the titlark was thoroughly fixed, he hung tho linnet which had learned it in a room for three months with two common linnets which were in full song. The educated linnet, however, never bor¬ rowed any passage from the other lin¬ nets, but adhered steadfastly to that of the titlark which it had learned. At Knighton, in Radnorshire, he saw a goldfinch which sung exactly like a wren, and uttered no proper note of its species. This bird had been taken from the nest when it was two days old, and was hung in a window opposite a small garden, where it had, no doubt, heard and learned the wren’s song, having never-had the opportunity to learn that of the goldfinch. Birds taken from the nest two or three weeks old have already learned the call notes of their species. These and many similar facts goto prove that birds do not sing by instinct They learn their songs from their parents. If they have no opportunity of hearing the Bong peculiar to their species, they never it, but wfll learn any other instead; as an American child taken to when a few weeks old would never speak English if he never heard it, but would learn to speak French.—Popu¬ lar Science Monthly.

THE STAR. A GREAT NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC NEWSPAPER. The Stab is the only New York newspaper possessing the fullest confidence of the Na¬ tional Administration and the United Dem¬ ocracy of New York, the political battle ground of the Republic. Jeffersonian Democracy, pure and simple, i a good enough for the Stab. SiDgle hand¬ ed among the metropolitan press, it lias stood by the men called by the great Democ- racy to redeem the government from twenty-five years of Republican wastefulness and corruption and despotism to the South. For these four years past it has been unswerv ing in its fidelity the administration of Grov¬ er Cleveland. It is for him now—for Cleve¬ land and Thurman—for four years more of Democratic honesty in our national affairs, and of continued national tranqnility and prosperity. For people who like that sort of Democracy the Stab is the paper to read. The Stab stands squarely on the National Democratic platform. It believes that any tribute exacted from the people in excess of the demands of a government economically administered is essentially oppressive and dishonest. The scheme fostered and cham¬ pioned by the Republican part-of making the government a miser; wringing millions an nually from the people and locking them up in vaults to serve no purpose but invite waste fulness and dishonesty, it regards as a mon¬ strous crime against the right of American citizenship. Republican political jugglers may call it “protective taxation;” the Stab’s name for it is robbery. Through and through the Stab is a great newspaper. Its tone is j nre and wholesome, its news service unexceptionable. Each irsue presents an epitome of what is best worth knowing of the world's history of yesterday. Its stories are told in good, quick, pictur- eque Edglish, and mighty interesting read¬ ing they are. The Sunday Star is as good as the best class magazine, and prints about the same amount of matter. Besides the day’s news it is rich in spesial descriptive articles, sto ries, snatches of current literature, reviews, art criticism, etc. B'u tte’s inimatiblc hu¬ mor sparkles in its c> is: Will Carleton’s delightful letters i . . - choice offerings.
