Mr. Giles' theme was Ornithology, bat he dwelt more particu larly npon the birds of this section. The Martins were referred to and their places of abode described,the houses that are fur. niihed thtm free, and which the speaker added, par parenthesis, are the only abodes in thii goodly town that are above taxation. The lecture, we are told, was interesting throughout, and was listened to with marked attention. IndleatUni.
