WooD UP!-We did not know that
carrier pigeons usually topped at
houses to refresh on their journies;
but such would appear sometimes TO
be their wont. One alighted at the
hause of the Hon. VIM. BarreH, in
Canaan, Connecticut, on Saturday af-
ternoon, 9Th inst; giving signs OF
hunger and fatigue. Judge b.
brought out some wheat 10 his winged
visiter, which it very greedily ate
from his hand. While the pigeon
was eating, its legs we're noticed to
be wrapped with paper: and on re-
moving the bandages, they were,
found 10 contain Mr.. Wcbster's ora
ton, delivered at the Bunker Hill
celebration, written on two sheets Of
tissue paper. The Judge had the
pleasure Of reading the speech while
the bird was satisfying its hunger and
regaining its strength, and then re-
placing the tissue boots of the faith
ful airy messenger, it took a rapid.
flight to the west.-Sat Post.
