A Kon! rroccetliiig-. A New Y'ork man who in 4 ii4liii; the hot weather Hea.soti with u family on I'ino Stn;et was asked by the lady of the house if hu w ould take a lien oil tlit nest, as it wanted to sit, utxl she ilidn't want it Ut. 'Certainly," said he, arid immediately started ut Ut the barn w her the Lens were kept, to crush out tU mat4Ttial prospects of this particular tine. He went strait for the nest to lift her ill", atid reached out his hand for that purpose, but immediately drew it back iiaui und tucked it up under the other arm, and Hijueczod it a little, while h drew up his lips as if about to whistle something. Then he kUxmI there and klarod at the hen, and ahe liftel her head and stared back at him, winking her exes with in;rular velocity.

"(it toll', won't jou?" baid he, afler a pause. .She made n re.tjion.se. He tlrew out his hand and looked ut a red kpot on one t)f the knuckles, and then put thu knuckle in his mouth to cool it, tot, king; all the while at the hen, and wondering how tn earth tlie moved so ijuiekly. The longer he eyed Im r, the J--s inclined he felt to touch her, nnd l'mally he climbed up a post to a beam which ran 4ivcr the uest, and working his waj out till lie ejfit just above the hen, took 4 11 his hat and shook it ut her and advised her to ,4p't." Hut fin; only looked up at him tmc eye at it tiiii4! and clucked ominously. He t'dd lny if ahu didn't leave he'd come down there and kicfi her through tlie barn, but immediataly gave up the b'fjodi hiity design w hen he rtiJccied 1 iiai it w us tt uomb animal and C4iulda't reason like a human bcinoj. Then he happened to think of his pants, which were while linen, and rubbed his lingers on the beam to find them full of black dust, which led hint to work his body around to look at his pants, and while making this very natural move he suldenly slipped, made a nlunge to renew- his hold, shrieked for help, slipped again, and then cam down on ton of the hf-n and the nest, smashing them both to the lloor, upsetting a Imrn l, ami tilling the air with dust, feathers, hen noises ami shrieks. When the family reached the barn, the unfortunate man looking something like a circus p4.stcron legs, had j'ot on his feet, and was turning around and rubbing his head in an abstracted manner, and every time he turned an 4)tnelet on a white linen ba.54- came to view, while the hen stood up in th furthest corner tn one leg, with a ljok of mingled astonishment and reproach upon her countenance. Danbury S'tw. A Connecticut Centenarian. Miss Sally Northrop, ,f NewMiiford, is one hundred years old to-day. Until recently she expected to celebrate her 4vnt4'nnial with a large party of her friends, but a severe injury, by a fall, confines her to her mom, and just as the cards f invitation were about to h engnmd the plan was reluctantly abandoned. She say? that t be last lift'en years have been the pleasantcst of her life; that she remembers no year that she would not gladly lie over again. Her memory is .stiH'good, and lur mental faculties aro remarkably well preserved. She belongs to a longlivcd family. Her sister, living in the ante family, that tf llie lute .Judge Sanford, is nitnty-two, ami in good health. Her brother, the late Thomas (irant Northrop, father 4f S4cretary 15. (i. Northrop, lived to an advanced age. Their mother died :tt ninety-three. Their father, Amos Northrop, was graduated at Ya!e Colh g', 17o2. Serving in the Revolutionary army, he dieil early from the clTects of camp exposure. The mark4 d cheerfulness and ph'asantness which characterized Miss Northrop in early life are as prominent now as ever. Hence she has ever been a favorite with the voting as Well as the old, while her great liberality and many Christian virtues have greatly endeared her to the whole community.
