I am collecting curiosities, and would be happy to exchange with any correspondent. I have about one hundred and fifty varieties of birds' eggs. I would be glad to supply any one with a list of the eggs of Canada.

I would like to exchange postmarks, minerals, fossils, birds' eggs, or coins with any of the readers of Young People for minerals, fossils, coins, birds' eggs, or shells. I very much desire to obtain specimens from foreign countries.

I have a large number of stamps and rare postmarks, and would like very much to exchange with readers of this paper.

I want to tell you about my collection. It consists of an Indian mortar, an Indian axe and hatchet, a large number of arrow-heads, a nail from "Old Fort Massac," a French bullet weighing an ounce, and a piece of a French sword. I have also a fine collection of minerals, and I would like to exchange some specimens of purple spar for copper ore, crystallized quartz, or shells.
