Tlje Baltimore Oriole.
From tha singularity of ihe nest of this
species, from its brilliant cofoi and its pre
ferring the apple trees, weeping willows, wal
nut and tulip trees to build on, it is generally
known and is, as usual, honored with u vari
ety of names, such as bang-nest, hanging
bird, golden robin, (ire-bird, &c., but more
generally the Baltimore bird. Few of the
American orioles equal this in the construc
tion of their neats ; he gives them, in a su
perior degree, warmth, convenience and se
curity. lie generally fixes on the high bend
ing extremities of the branches, fastening
strong strings of hemp or flax round two
forked twigs; with Ihe same materials he
fabricates a strong, firm kind of cloth, not
unlike the substance of a hat in its raw state,
forms it into a pouch six or eight inches in
depth, lining it substantially with soft sub
stances well interwoven with the outward net
ting, and lastly finishes wi'h a layer of horse
hair—the whole being shaded from (he sun
and rain by a natural pent-house, or cdpopy
of leaves.
The birds of ibis species have all a com
mon form of building, bul they do not build
in exactly the same manner. Great differ
rence will be iound in the style, nearness in
in finishing the nest. Some are far superior
workmen to others. So solicitous is the Bal
timore to procure proper materials for his
nest, that the women in must
narrowly watch the thread that 1 may be blea
ching: and the farmer must secure his grabs
as this bird will curry off the former and the
airings that lie the latter, to serve his purpo
se in building.
The principal food of the Baltimore con
sists of beetles, caterpillars, and bugs—par
ticularly one of a brilliant, gl >ssy green.

manufactured by Evans & Watson, and put in books
and papers precisely alike. I \
Tho fire was started at 'o’clocbf-A. M., and
kept up until four cords of greeti hickory, two cords
dry oak and half chestnut lop jvood were entirely
consumed, the whole under the ■■superintendence of
the subscribers, members ofjlb'e Committee. The
Safes were then cooled off witit water, after which
they were opened and the books and papers taken
out by the Committee and sent to H. A.' Lanlz's
store for public examination, after they were first
examined and marked by Hhp Committee. The
books and papers taken fromllbe Safe manufactured
by Evans & Watson were bptjslightly affected fay
the intense heat, while those taken from Ibe Safe
manufactured by Parrels &i Herring, were in our
judgment, damaged folly fifteen per cent more than
(hose taken from Evans & Wasson’s Safe.
We believe the above to have been a fair and im
partial trial of the respective qualities of both Safes.
