To recall -these nights when I was o entertained gives me gfeat pleasure even now, and I will state that no experience that 1 had on the farm ever gave me more pleasure. I love the birck and axn fond of listening to theic sweet ;iKteso full of melody and the yearnings of their glad some natutes.; ; Jn fact so . much is thotrght of. them by ,the Feder al Government that it has placed on its statute book laws for their protection arid so has our State with severe penalties attached for killinghem. To treat them cruellor t&rture them is made a misdemeanbr and- punishable in the state courts.' I can , hardly understand how ''any one -could treat the little birds cruelly: or mean, forvihev aie innocent of all harm and certainly do- little injury lo ariy one, and it ought not to be necessary to call any one's attention to the necessity of using means for the preventing of persons from killing these "birds and. especially our song ' birds; yet it is sported .that during last Christmas holidays tour mocking birds were .ruthlessly r -killed f by some boys in the' Catholic chtircW yard JttJEdenton.
