We were shown a beautiful specimen of the ingenuity of birds, a
few days since, by Dr. Cook, of this borough. It was a birdsnest
made entirely of silver wires, beautifully woven together. The nest
was found on a sycamore tree, on the Condorus, by Dr. Francis Beard,
of York county. It was the nest of a hanging-bird; and the material
was probably obtained from a soldier's epaulet, which it had found.
