The Rapacity of the Hawk: A few days ago, a hawk, attracted by the melody of a beautiful collection of feathered songsters hung up in Mr. T. Pynsent’s greenhouse at Hillsborough, near Westward Ho, Appledore, made a dart at the glass and smashed a pane one-eighth of an inch in thickness. The hawk hung in the aperture nearly ten minutes, apparently dead, but when approached the Misses Pynsent, who were attracted by the noise; it flew way, having only been stunned.
