The Bthie-.Jay.
It is during the fail and winter that this
bird is seen moost frequently and to the best
advantage. At this t:mre he is off duty and
bound to have gooti time. Iis; domcstic
cares for the season are over: he has reared
his annual famirly and trained them in the
way they should go,'andl they have gone,
and he also is at liberty to go whither lie
listetar. IIe casts oti his last year's Suit
which has grown a hit shabby during thre
working season and, arrayed in clothing of
the latest fashion and most brilliant dyes,
and wit h ai jaunty plumedl cap up >n his
head. he saliies forth in search of adven
tures, the veriest coxcomib in all tue world.
Among all of our beautiful plumraged
birds, and we have more of thema than
many persons suppose, there are few or
none that can vie wirh the jay in brrlian
cy of c.olora:ion, though the whole eiect
:s produced b~y the single color blue, in
various shades and combinations with black
and wh.te a-id a tinge of gray. Tire tints
vary fro-. strong, rich ultramarine to a pale:
delicate lavender which fades away to the
gray beneath, and when contrasted with
the deep green of the summer forest, the
gaver the hues of the autumn foliage or the
dazzing white of thre winter landscape, the
effect is strikingly beautiful. The form and
movements of the bird are well adapted to
exhibit his splendid c:olers to the best ad
vantage. Never still, yet seldom~ movmnr
switthy, he is constantly hopping fromi
branch to branch cr flitting from tree to
tree. it is a custom of his to alight on one
of the lower limbs a:nd then hop from this
to the next higher, and so on till he has
gained the top, and then wing Ihis way to
a-rother.
As a singer, the j ty has no reputation
in fact, there arc those who thmnk his vorce
is the worst part of him; yet there is much
to please thre lover of nature in his various
notes, and to those who associate theu:
with the pleasantest months of the year
the season of the harvest, the time of the
fruition of the hones and labors of the
spring and summer-they suggest fields of
ripening corn, orchards bending with their
loads an~~ icoressiwhere the brown
nuts are rartling cown. is notes are of
three kinds; the most commaon and the one
by whuch he is best known, is a hoarse
screaim which he uses as a call for his
mate and to express his displeasure whcn
you intrude upon what he considers his
own domam. You are walking qurietly
through thn woods some cahn Ocetober
morning, when you are sta:tedi by a shrill
voice an.id thre brarnches just above, nu&

he hops from one ilmib to anither, stoppmng
for a mouent on each, to shower down a
volley of iimreca::ons on your devoted
head; then springin; rnto' a tree-top, he
passes 'he cry along to harf a dozen others,
who take it up and mrake thre woods ring
with what appear to be anythring but comn
plimientary rea-arke. At another time,
when at is still ini thre forest and you do
not youmrself disturb tire stience, there may'
comre to your ear-s a sort chuckling sound;
and, peering throuminh th" I"m!.e, you will

The Grand Canon of the Colorado.
TEhe Grand canon is about 220 miles lo
from five to twelve miles wide, and fr<
5.000 to 6,000 feet deep. Those who ha
seen it all unite in declaring it the m(
sublime and impressive of all rnatural fc
tures in the world. It consists of an out
and inner chasm. The outer chasm
about five or six inches wide with a row
palisades 2,000 feet high on either side, a
a broad and comparative smooth ph
between. Within thIs plain is cut t
inner gorge descending more than 3,0
feet lower and with a width of about :),5
feet. The upper palisades are of ve
noble form and uniform profiles with
highly architectural aspect. The regi
through which the chasms extend consit
of carboniferous strita, but about for
miles north of the river appear strata o1
later age forwing a series of terraces, ean
terrace being terminated.by a line of cli:
1,500 to 2,000 feet high, and of very we
der ftl sculpture and brilliant color. 'T
strata 'n this stairway of terraces aret
remuauts of beds which once stretch.
unbroken over the district now drain
by the Grand canon. The total thicknE
of the beds removed was more than 10,0'
feet and the denuded area more than 10.0'
square miles. The denudatio~n began
the e'cene time and has been continuo
until the present time. A great amount
upiifting has' also occurred dur'ng ti
same period, varying according to locali1
from 15,00&ta19000Ieetg.and the prese
5,0 st.^The meeting of the
canon is thus merely the closing epihot
of a. lon period of erosion. The cuttir
of the present chasm is a campai
atively recent geological event, ai
probably had its beginning in plioce
time. The process of excavating the ca
on consists of the action of two classes
natural causes. The first is the scouri
action of the stream upon the rocks in
tied. The stream is a fierce torrent, carn
ing large quantities of sharp sand, whi
acts hike a sand blast. A river will alwa
cut down its bed when the quantity
