Tub Amkhicah' Eagle —Bv Ike P..n.| ti.ng toS. —This is ihe greatest bird that has' ever spread his wings over this great nnd glorious country. The place where he builds his nest is called an eyrie, away up on Ihe ’precipices where the font of man can’t come, though perhaps .a boy’s might. The eagle is a ferocious fellow, and sits on the top of the cliffs and looks sharp for plunder. He gets tired o'f waiting, and (hen he starts out in the blue expansive heavens ; and soars all. around on his opinions over the land and water to see what he can pounce down upon. Bui. lhough lie is called a very cruel bird, lie always preys before eating, just like any good man at the head of his family. He eats his victuals raw, which is an unfavora ble habit, hut is supposed that he eats it so because fie likes to. He is a very coura geous bird, and will fight like blazes lor his young, and will steal chickens wherever he can see them. He is a bird of great talons, and is much respected by birds of the feathered Iribd that are afraid of him. He is a great study for artists, but appears to best advantage on the ten-dollar gold pieces nnd fifty cent pieces, and pretty well on the dimes, as he sits gathering up his thunder bolls under him as'if be was in a groat burry to be oif. He has lately broke out on the new cent, and seems as if in his hurry he has dropped all his thunder. The American eagle is the patriot’s hope-andlhe Inspiration of fourth of duly. He soars through the realms of the poet’s fancy and whets his beak on the highest peak of the orator’s im agination. He is in the mouth of every poli tician, so to speak. He is said by them to stand on the Rocky Mountains and to dip his bill into the Atlantic, while his tail casts a shadow on the Pacific coast. This is all gammon. There never was one more than 8 feel long from the tip of one to the lip of the ’tolher. His angiy screams is heard ever so far, and he does'not care a feather for anybody. Take him every way be is an immense fowl, and bis march is over the mounting wave, with the star spangled ban ner in his hand, whistling Yankee Doodle. Honksty or Country Girls. —An amu sing incidrnt look place in one of our large dry goods sinrcs of our city a short lime Bince. A good looking, honest-faced country girt earner to town with her “feller” to do a trifle of shopping. The magnitude of the store, the piles on piles of goods, the dazzling array of articles, the rows of busy clerks, the flitting cash boys, quite overpowered our good friend, who scarcely knew what to do. Her “feUer” ob stinately. refused to go in, but loitered about the donr. The clerks being all busy just at the mo ment, the roung lady was obliged to remain standing a-few moments. At length a dap. per fellow with gold watch chain and flourish ing moustache, came bowing and smiting up to the blushing customer with, “Anybody waiting on you, madam !” The color deepened in her cheeks, as she hesitated and drew a long breath, (ill finally, with a nod of her head towards the door, she faltered out —“Yes, sit, he is.” BUSINESS DIRECTORY.
