PET MAGPIES. 



A gentleman in Newport, Me., has 

 a pair of Black-billed magpies, which 

 were sent from Colorado for pets. He 

 has them in his stable in a large cage. 

 It is said they can say some words, 

 but we did not hear them. They make 

 interesting pets; and many people call 

 to see the strange birds from Colorado. 

 Mr. Sanford Richie, one of our mem- 

 bers living in Dover, Me., called my at- 

 tention to these birds. — Ed.
