THE TURKEY. Foul is Fair. Let Sam reherse the tail of eagle bold, Or eke Free Soilers praise F. W. Bird ; Lut Milton sing the nightingale that's heard Warbling at eve, when both the Woods are still; Let the brave tailor brag of goose his fill, Or in lu's duck's disport the marintre; Let Pyne exalt the sky lark loud and clear, Or school-girls wjite of doves with amorous quill; Let Bennet, or let Burham well portray The ponderous Shanghai, perched on mighty pins, Titanic rooster, for our many sins Sent, like the Duke, to drive our Nap away ; Let snowy Georgians or lithe Nubians murky Praise the Grand Turk but I will praise the Turkey. O, gallopavian bird ! with what affection I view thy gently swelling, pingueous form, ' And in prophetic rapture, wild and warm, Dream of the twenty-fifth, and thy dissection. O'er thy brown breast, the knife without contrition. Impends. I feel the joy that carvers feel At turkeys worthy of their trusty steel While onward goes the dulcet demolition. 0 tender flesh T 0 boundless wealth of meat 1 O juicy, joyous, generous, jovial slices! 1 swoon with pleasure at the expected treat, Until the venal poulterer names the price; And as I leave the market, looking blue, : Hope, for a season, bids the world adieu.

Bent the huzzy fuzz; I wuke the gongon;! JJ;intt!!n! fuzzlubiini, dingo Dim! Ods to Kino Kankkrs$i:amkke, of th Fkoee Islands. I never was what you might call smart. What 1 call smart is thinking and acting at a snap on the spontaneous percussion principle. Now my brother Mad always was smart. He was in fact the most excessively simultaneous man I ever knew. One day in New York I saw Mad velocitating down Fifth Avenue in a sulkey, just behind a three-mile trotter. I'm not what you might call skary, myself; but I thought't Mad might better have cut just as big a swath somewhere else in general, and on the island in particular. Before I could say, ' easy over the stones,' Mad's right wheel went over something believe it was an Alderman's right foot and up went my only surviving brother into the air like a brick-bat at election time, and he fell flat as a buckwheat on the side-walk. Exchequer Harrison, of Milwaukee, and I picked the fraternal up. ' 'Madison, nro you sensible?' said Exchequer.! 'What '11 you give for the sulkey as she runs. Check?' replied Mad, as he undid his optics. I really believe he'd have gone stunned if he had'nt first concluded to stick somebodv. 'Forty dollars,' said Check, looking down the street at the team as it Taconey'd along1. 'Done!' says Mad. ' He had'nt the word out of lus mouth, before a tree-box took part of the sulkey, and annihilation the balance. ., Exchequer Harrison, of Milwaukee, got one wheel in pretty good order : and the loafers the rest. We caught the trotter, and then Mad became very much laid out, indeed. I said nothing; but reckoned that he was getting no better rather too fast for the good of some body's port-money. 'He can't travel,' said Press Haynes, who had just called a cab. .'Salubrity's below par!' . 'Go you twenty that I can ride her in barebacked,' muttered Mad, very faintly, with both eyes shut. And he did. That twenty and Check's forty, just brought him out on the square. ; . ' Such was my brother Mad, a youth both gifted and pious in the Cincinnati sense of the word for before he was twenty-three years old he had made one hundred thousand dollars. Still his righteousness had its back-slidings; since previous to his twenty-fourth annual birthday he had spent it all; and his life ever since has been like that of the celebrated old oaken bucket, either up the top of the well, pouring out, or down at the botto n, taking in. 1 have begun with my brother Madison, putting hitn a little out ahead of myself, on the same principle that a young lady at a party takes a. beau or a chaperoon. to pilot fore-wi.se along, and ease her own dehult off a little. Were I one of the smart sort this would be needless. But I have also had my own experience, kernickering round, as they say in good society, having travelled, so to speak, upward of some:' at times on my shape, and semi-occasionally on railroads, steamboats, ox-wagons, triumphal chariots, and cellar-doors. But it was with me a juvenile axeom that the manner of travel, whatever it be, is greatly helped by the application of metal (meaning thereby tin, pewter, brass, dough, brads,, ready,, heavy, dust, spicuniary, funds, or any other word for money) to the wheels. . 'Where the wheels is 'n; tired the bosses is,' said an old driver to me during the innocent apple stealing days of infancy. 'Buy an 'ography 'f Barntim?' said a man at my elbow, as I was lunching one morning in the Astor House. I looked around and remembered 1 him as a thrifty, sparing book-peddler: so very sparing, indeed, that he was saving with his nouns, extra-economical with his adjectives, and clipped his words generally as if they had been . coin. 'Buy an 'ography ' Barnum?' said I think- , fully to self, as 1 went up stairs with the book. . 'Who comes next?' To judge of tht booksel-. ler's ad's and the police reports, one might reck-1 pn that every man in America has his life taken about twice on an average. All who go through ' the world pushing the big snow-ball of fortune before them, have got to find out, sooner or later, that a time will come when its size, and nothing else, will urgently call for a written description of the roller. , , r 'Why, I might just as reasonably set down some of my own notions. I ain't smart what of it?' and as Stetson handed over the key of my room, I looked him solemnly in the face and said : 'will!' 'Will what?' answers Stetson. Will and bequeath to you my everlasting bles- j

sing if you dont move me down at least three stories below that toploftical garret where I'm stowed. Why, it's so high up that I can see the sun-rise before sun-down, and I have to start before bed-time to get down stairs in time for dindin!' 'It shall he done,' said S. 'Here James! move there, some of you! Take this gentleman's bagg.tge to No. !' And it was accordingly in No. that this commencement was cogitated and crushed out. From my window I could see Broadway and the Park the correctness of the City Hall clock, and the imposing front of the Hall itself; which, according to the newspapers, is nothing at all compared to the imposing work which goes on inside. I could see Windust's over the way, through which the endless ghostly whirls of wind and dust, which the City Fathers (being as they were, no conjurers) had not succeeded in laying. And lastly, I could behold the great Temple of Humdug, with its waving banners and myriad signs, and all the pomp and circumstance of gammon! From time to time as

the omnibus flieels and ceaseless tramp of endless promenaders lulled a few, I could hear blasts of something like music from a balcony in front of the Museum, variegated with the occasional squeak of a pig, or of a lady just escaping a vehicular death by about a hair's-breadth, on that celebrated crossing which is, according to travellers, (who ought to know,) more dangerous than the crossinc of the Isthmus ever was in its worst days. 'This,' said I, as I looked out on the world in general, and at a white coat which sloped into the Tribune Buildings ; this is the correct spot to win. This is about the centre of the hub of the 'reat wheel of the American world. There is no discount on this town! Foreign activity is like a mill-wlfeel; it iroes round mighty fast when the water's high, but it don't go ahead! American movement is like the wheel of a locomotive; the quicker its turn-roundativeness, the greater its get-along! Welcome thou busy scene '. lor in thy presence shall the Observations of Mace SIoper be begun!' A "Wictim" to Tyranical Laws. Mr. Robert ltussel, who formerly lived in Schoharie County, N. Y., now resides in the city of Albany. Russel appears to be the victim ,of unpropitious circumstances. Russel has an unhappy faculty of doing business contrary to law. On Tuesday last Mr. Russel was arrested for the eleventh time since autumn set in. We give his examination: ; "Well, Russell," said the magistrate, "you are here again, I perceive." "Yes sir. The fact is, Squire, I'm a wictim. Blow me if I care what Robby Russell does, he is sure to wiolate some law or other. .' When I comes to Albany, I says to myself, Russell, my boy,, we'll take a hunt to-morrow and try them fox hounds. Well sir, out I goes, and what do you think? Before I got to the next corner, Bar ney Whalen tapped me on the shoulder and says, 'that 8 agin the law. 'What s,. agin the law.'' 1 replies; and he says, 'having dogs in the street without muzzles.' He accordingly arrested me and brought me to the police court. . The result of that piece of fun was a fine of five dollars.' Well, what did 1 do then:". ..i . "Can't say."' ' ; ,; "Well, listen and I'll tell you. I sold the fox hounds to one of Aunt Put's friends for twenty dollars. - With the proceeds I bought a sow and five pigs.; I took them home, built a pen in the back yard, and thought all my troubles at an end, hut I was mistaken. Officer Bradwell called on me the very next morning, and says: 'Kusscll, keeping hogs in the yard is against the law.' . I doubted it. This riled Officer Bradwell,' who had me arrested again. This time I was fined five dollars." "Well, what did you do then?" "I -sold my sow and pigs, and bought a horse and cart, and undertook to draw wood. The very first load I put on drew the attention of policeman Sickles, who said that driving a cart without a licence was agin the law.' He arrested me for that offence, which caused me another fine of five dollars." "Welt, what did you do next?" ' ; "I sold the horse and cart, and bought the half of a charcoal wagon." i . ' ; ." "Well, what success did you meet with after that?" - , ' "The same old luck, sir. . The first day I commenced peddling, policeman Snooks took me by the collar, and says: , 'Russell that's agin the law, old feller.' 'What's agin the law,' I said. He replied 'selling charcoal in a wooden measure.' That cost me a fine of three dollars." , ! "Did that drive you out of the charcoal business?" "Yes sir. I sold out, and thought I would try my fortune in carrying baggage between the steamboat and railroads. What's the use? I only commenced work to day, and yet here I am again." ; "What for now?" ' : ' "- "For soliciting baggage without a permit from the mayor. As I said before, I'm a wictim. If I should save a man from drowning by jumping into a whirlpool, dash my vig if I don't believe the tirst policeman I met in coming ashore would come up and say; "It's agin the law, Russell, to go overboard without a licence from the Coroner.'" The Justice having heard Mr. Rnssel to the end, admitted that he was a "wictim." and let him off without paying a fine. Russell left the office, saying that he would go and kill himself, "if it were not for one thing." On being asked what that wa$, he replied that some policeman would discover it was "agin the law to commit suicide," and undertake to collect the fine from his "misfortinit children." Russell's case calls for sympathy. Kaintuck and the Fiddler. On board the steamer Indiana, ori one of her trips down the Mississippi, were a large number of good natured passengers.' They were seeking to while away hours according to their several notions of pleasure, and would have got on very well, but for one annoyance. There happened to be on board a Hoosier from the Wabash, who was going down to New Orleans, and he had provided himself with an old fiddle, fancying he could fiddle as well as the best man, and planting himself where he would attract notice, scraped away. the lellow couldn t play any more than a sit-ling-hen, and the horrible noise disturbed his fel low passengers. A Frenchman of very delicate nerves and a very fine musical ear, was especially annoyed. He fluttered, fidgeted, and swore at the fiddle. The passengers tried various expedi ents to rid themselves of the Hoosier and his fiddle; it was no go "he would music just as long as he pleased." At last a big lientuckian sprang from Ins seat, saying, "I reckon I'll fix him," placing himself by the fiddler he commenced braying with all his might. The effect of this movement was beyond all description. Old Kaintuck brayed so loud that he drowned the screechings of the fiddle, and amid the shouts of the passengers, the discomfitted Hoosier retreated below, leaving the victory

of the unequal contest with the Kentuckian and his singular impromptu imitation of Baalam's friend. The delight of the Frenchman knew no bounds, and quiet was restored for the day. During the night the Kentuckian left the boat. The next morning, after breakfast, the passengers were startled by the discordant sound of their old tormentor. Hcosier had discovered the coast was clear, and was bound to revenge himself on the passengers. Loud and worse than ever screamed the fiddle. The Frenchman just seated to read his paper on the first sound, rose and looked anxiously around, and shrugged his shoulders, and then shouted "Vare is he? Queeck! Mon Dieu! Vare is Monsieur Kaintuck, de man vat play on de jackass?" The Schoolmaster Abroad. At one of the agricultural fairs recently held in Connecticut, says the Hartford Courier, a farmer gave early notice to the secretary of his entries for the "fares." He was to send one "Duram" Bull,

one "you" (ewe,) and two "lams." If his "yewes" concerning the rules of the societiy were "prong," he hoped the secretary would "rite him by the next male." The success of the good man in his orthography of the word ewe, (giving not a single letter correctly,) is precisely like that of the man who wrote coffee kauphy. fii)0 A C K E S " O F V A LVA t, E IAND FOR SHE. -t f Acres, 2 mllcB north of Indianapolis, and mile east J. 1)4 of Michigan Koad, 6(1 acres under cultivation; S!90 acres 7 miles north of Indianapolis, I mile east of Broad Ripple, on south side of White River, 18 acres under cultivation. 23li acres 5 miles north of Indianapolis, 40 acres under cultivation, 4r acres deadened ready for clearing, 25 acres in pasture and pood slock water on the farm.
