She wlio takes a bird in a cage and hangs him wherever he and his gilded jail are most ornamental, irrespective of heat and cold, sunshine or shadow, treating him in fact like a piece of fur niture, and expect him to lie an inter esting pet, without further trouble will always he disappointed. Hie sensitive creature will accept the position she assigns him and will retire into himself, and she will miss a charming acquaint ance and friendship. We are in generel so dull or so pre occupied hy the small details of our daily life that, unless an animal Ls so demonstrative that we can not ignore his manifestations of intelligence we pay no attention to him. or set him down as stupid. Thus we have done with the cat; thus also with the bird. The freest creature in existence, once a captive, he is quite capable of spend ing years in a house and never ex pressing himself excepting in song that one can not interpret The bird sitting on his perch hour after hour, singing his soul away, does it not to amuse- us. but to beguile the tedious hours, ami give voice to the lonely life of a prisoner without sympathy. There: is another way to deal with these beautiful creatures. A bird is an individual; his acquaintance must bo made; his love must be won; lie must be treated like a person. Place him where lie is comfortable no where his cage looks well; talk to him; give him dainties from your band; never neglect or startle him; and above all, love him. Then shall you win his faitli and affection, and pn.sess a happy, contented pet, an ci tiTlaining companion, uu exquisite singer, who will surpris, you wit h his intelligence, and who wiil not regret freedom, for he has his compensation in an easy life. In China, pet birds are so tame that they are taken out to walk by their owners, and make no effort to escape. It i not unusual to see Chinese gentle men in the streets with a pet bird on the linger. The same confidence has ex isted between people and birds in our own country. A thoroughly well cared for and affectionate bird prefers to live with human beings. Perfect success will be attained only wheu there is but one. for no creature is more exacting of one's whole heart, none more jealous of another, than the bird. The most pleasing way of treat ing a pet is to give him the freedom of the house, or at least a room. I hardly know where to begin to Fpeak of individual creatures, for al most anything that wears feathers is interesting; even that generally sup posed stupid bird, the hen, has proved under loving domestication to be wise and bright, capable of becoming much attached to individuals, and of learn ing to perform various tricks. To start with the best known and most frequently kept the parrot. This bird, with all his varieties and all his relations paroquets, cockatoos, macaws and others every one knows to be intelligent and amusiag, with well-marked characteristics of his own. Parrots have the advantage for life in a house of being able to dispense al most entirely with exercise, to stand all day, and in fact all night also, on one perch, passing away the hours apparently to their pefect satisfaction in talking, or imitating the sounds about them. There are so many kinds of these birds, and so much has been said and written about them, so many marvelous stories are told about their intelligence, that it is not necessary to But, though wise and cntertaininsr, parrots are not so satisfactory as more active pets. In this respect our own native birds are charming. For intelligence united to a winning char acter the thrushes head the list. The American robin is a spirited and at tractive pet. a bir. honest fellow, vrrv honest in what he is doing, and not "i .......

What strange, he will thrive lor years oa beef fat oake. hot domrhnuts. raisins, and is fact anytuing he may select from an ordinary table. As a singer, the robin does not shine in captivity, though he will 'ta!k" and utter a whisper-song, si low it is a mere murmur, bv th-? hour. He needs the inspiration of freedom, of early morning, perhaps of a nest in the apple-tree, to bring out hi full, glorious ong. Bat he is a cheerful captive, and never m.pcs when well Treated. The wool-thrush, hermit-thrush and others of this amiable family, are con ftainir and winning. They will be very familiar, and eat from your hand, but in general the- will not sing in con finement, excepting the low- song al ready spoken of. For an incarnation of mischief and fun I recommend the cat-bird. Full ol whimsical freak, always inventing some new prank, alwaj-s diverting, no dullness can exist where a cat-bird i; free and friendly. Tiie same may be said of the mocking-bird, which is sad ly out of place shut in a cage, with inging his only resource. One of the most active birds, his lot as a prisoner is peculiarly hard. Do not think he i happy because he sings. Those who have known him at home and listened to his song can tell the difference. He sings because it is his only relief, and f we could understand the song, and interpret the slight quivering of the wings which accompanies it, we would know him better, and Tm sure should open the door of his cage. A blue jay is one of the most enter taining of pets, as is also the common crow, and for the same reason in genuity in mischief; the caprices h will indulge in. and the destruction he will work on house and furniture, are surprising in one of his size. Unlesr one has an unused room this bird would not be appreciated as a com panion for the city; but in the country, with access to a yard, no bird or beast could aff ud more entertainment than either one of these fellows. Seed-eating birds are most easily cared for and neatest about a room, and almost anyone will display marked individuality. If you once become ac quainted with a bird, and cure your self of liiinkintr him a mere animated machine, he will surprise you in many ways. The common house sparrow, disreputable, quarrelsome, scolding little tramp that he i, has proved in te'ligent. affectionate and interesting to p.-o;.le who have treated him well, and have the patience to win his confi dence. In many respects birds are mucL more desirable house companions than dogs or cat; they are not noisy, boisterous and careless, like the form er, nor will the- associate with "evil company that corrupts good man ners," which the best-bred pusy will sometimes do. In regard to their treatment, a vol ume might be profitably written, foi the carelessness displayed in the care of birds is almost past belief. I will say- but a few words: get a good bird book and learn what your pet should have, then procure the bet of tin kind. Of mocking-bird food I will say that I have tried many sorts, and I know- of not one place in New York to get food on which a bird will thrive. Keep the cage immaculate, and give a variety both of food and ol scene, and though you may not have a singing machine, you will have what is better a loving and bewitching pet; to whom you will become as much at tached as to any dog or cat in the world. Another thing, too, I must say. Wheu 3-0U are obliged to leave home I will not say when you are tired ol him. for under the circumstances you can never be that do not think you are making your pet happy by open ing his cage door and turning him out into the universe. If he is in perfect condition, accustomed to flying around the room, and has not been kept in captivity long enough to forget how to seek his own food, above all, if it is his native climate and early in the summer, it may be safe to do so. Even then he should be liberated in the country or park, where he will not be mobbed by sparrows the moment ht shows his head. But if he has been long a pet, is not perfect in flight, is used to a cage and a daily table of his own, has become tender from long protection, above all, if he is person ally attached to you, you merely abandon him to suffering and death. He will not be able to protect himself from wild birds, who will be sure tc try his powers; he will probably take cold; he will not know how to feed himself. That is the misery of keeoins: a iet. When you have once accustomed it to your care and attention it can not do without them, and you have no right to forsake it Otre Thorne Miller, in Harper a Bazar. Already Provided For.
