An Instance of Sagacity in a Hen. Mr. Phil-iudor Pie rev, of Marquette?,

Wisconsin, communicates tho following to the Country Gentleman, Albany X. Y. A few years since I purchased a hen of Mr. OJell, now a resident of our village, vho iaf -rmed m? that she was one of the first settlers of Wisconsin, and having a particular regard foroU age, I concluded to keep Mrs. Biddy, and wiiness tho ciilct of aii in he;- dec lining years. Whether there is a natural re-peer f r age among certain animals, I will not attempt to deci le: but certain it is that not a biped upon the farm ever attempted to cross her ineliaa'.i )n, or dispute her authority; and if ever their was a foul whose organ of self-esteem was prominently developed, i was her. Nothing remarkable occurred aside from her haughty deportment, till the last year of her life, which was in 1051, when she became extremdy decripit, and was unable to walk but a f w steps without stopping to rest ;:mk1 if by any mishap she was thrown upon her side, she was unable to regain her feet till some one came to her assistance. Decripit as she was, however, she had a litter of eggs, and commenced the proe.r-ss of itieubari n. Her health failing rapidly, it sn become evident that she could iwt survive long enough to finish her tas!c. One morning I observed her leaving her nest, and directing her course toward the place wher-2 she received her daily food. She proceeded a short distance when she came in company with another hen w ho was walking leasurly through the yard. Both stopped and putting their heads together, as if in close and confidential conversation, remained so for some minutes. Af.cr the conversation was ended, the old hen began to retrace her steps back to her nest, followed bv her younger and more vigorous companion, stopping occasionally to renew the conversation. Having arrived at the nest, a long conversation apparently ensued, after which the young hen carefully placing herself on tho nest, took charge of the eggs as if they had been her own, while the old hen, as if conscious of her inability to proceed with her task, had provided a mother f r her expected offspring, and bidding a final adim to the place where the ties of nature had bound her affection, she left the scene. She never af erward took any notice of her nest, or exhibited anv ri-gard for her eggs. She appeared conscious of her approaching en I. and taking her s'ation near wheie she r?;ive 1 her food , she never left the jpot, but remained then? a few days and expired. The stepmother reared the chiks with all the attention and affection of an own mother. A Lawter Xoosed. 'William, look tip and tell us who made you. Do you know?' ilii im who was consi lered a fool screwed his ftce, and looked thoughtful and somewhat Ivwil lered, and slow ly answered, 'Moses; I spose. 'That w il! do,' now said counsellor G , addressing the court, 'the witness savs lie supposes Moses made him. This certain -tainly is an intelligent answer. More so than I thought him capable of giving, for i: shows he. has sor.v fiint idea of the Scriptures. V,i I submit, miy it pVas th Court, that this is not sufii'-i-'nt to jtisti'iy hi b'ing sworn as a w itness. No, sir, it is not sudi an answer as a witness qualified to testify should give.' Mr. Judge,' s aid the fool, 'mav I ask the lawyer a question V 'Certainly.' rep'i.-d th-2 Judge,' 'ask him any qu.'S'ion you please.' 'Wal, then, Mr. Lawyer, who do you '5p se made you ?' 'Aaron, I 'spose,' said the counsellor, imitating the witness. After the mirth had somewhat subsided, thm witness exclaimed 'Wal, now, we do rea l in the good book that Aaron once ma do a calf, but who'd a thought that the tarnal critter had got in here!' The poor counsellor was laughed down. Tt will le liarJ to resist .1 tear to tlie memory of the bravo, in r. a lini; the f.d!owing inei lent, which oeeurred on board Com. IVrry's vessel, after tlio battle on Lake? fie: One poor fdlow vai sent belovr to the surgeon, with his riijht arm anj-lin; like An empty coat-dee vc at Iiis side. It liad ben shattered near the shoulder and amputation was pronounced unavoidable. He bore? the painful operation without a iroan or a murmur, although 'cold drops of aifony stool on hi trembling flesh.' An hour or two after his am wa amputated, he called the surgeon to Iiis silo and sail: 'I should like to see my arm, if you've no objection.' 'None in tbe world,' replied the surgeon, 'if you desire it. The amputated limb was at once brought to him, and poor Jack, pressing the cold hand which had 'forgot its cunniny; in his eft, exclaimed, with tears in his eyes: 'Karowell, old m-ssmitc! You and I have Aveathorod manj' a tough gale together, but now we must part. You have been a good friend to me: I shall nevr find such Another!' Tho physical appearance of a man sometimes changes the current of even's. A case in point occurred recen'ly. The children of two neighboring finiliojj had their quarrels and fights, which resulted occasionally in bruised ftce and torn garments. The fithrof one family believing Iiis children to be maltreated, and being a very passionate man, at once concluded the surest way to settle the difference between their housdioulds permanently, would bo t chastise the hoar! of the other family, although he had never yet, seen him. He th$reupn procured a rawhide, and abruptly frntaring his neighbor's tenement; inquired, in a threatening tone for tho man of he house. I am here, sir,' a.iid a personage upwards, of' si foot high, and weighing some 22") pounds, as ho approached to learn the business of his neighbor. 'Di l I undcrstaad you that you were the man of tho house?' Yes sir.' Well, I I just dropped in to see if this was your raw-hid.' A little minx boasted to one of her little friends, that her f ither kept a carriage. Ah was the reply, 'but my father drives Iti omnibus.'

A Lawyer's Aiteal. May it please the Court and Jury, from Mie snow clad sum-i mi:s of Ararat, where four thousand of years, Noah's ark has reposed in lonely grandeur, to the sofl cerulean isles of the Grecian Archipelago, has the name of my client extended ; his forefathers fought at the Nile; and danced juba on the top of Bunker llili ; yet these witnesses have the audacity to say he stole them eggs. Why, my client lias soared aloft on the wings of his own stupendous and glorious intellect higher, higher hr.d not this tribe of perjured men tried to make him fill like a hickory saw log in a mill pond ; but the Court knows, that a man of his iror-eous magniiicense cculd not be guilty of stealing eggs, ane even if he did steal them, they were as rotten as Denmark, and had enough smell to stock a dozen pole cats with perfumery for a year. Gentlemen the evidence is not worth reviewing consequently I shall close my appeal by informing you that if you do not acquit my client you will every mother's son of you get your necks twisted info a double jointed cork screw, as sure as Belshazza's dead. 'Don't Worry.' This is the first thing an editor should get by heart. If Mr. Slocitm threatens to withdraw his patronage because you criticised Professor Drawley's lecture on the on onion question don't worry but tell him to go ahead and do it. If Mr. Bullion writes you an insulting letter, savin that if you don't stop writing about the Di Idlefon Railroad, he will ruin you with a lawsuit don't worry but dare

him to try it on. If Mr. Smith threatens to 'cave your h.ad in,' because you mentioned that 'his that his son Bob.' was sent to the Tombs for pelting a street lamp with brickbats don't worry, but teil him that you so love the law you dine on a salad made of red tape and sealing wax. Again we say never worry. If you do you are no more fit for an editor than a Quaker is for marine hornepipes. 0l Last Admomtiox to a L.vzr Boy. A late reverend clergyman, wdio wa as well known for his eccentricity as his talents, one day sent Iiis son, a lazj lad, about twelve years of age, to catch his horse. The hoy went sauntering along, half asleep w ith an ear of corn in one hand, an d the bridle in the other, dragging the reins on tho ground. 'Thomas'' sail his father, calling after him in a solemn tone of voice "come here Thomas; I want to say a word to you before you go." Ti.e lad returned and the parson proceeded. "You know, Thomas, I lrave given 3 on a great deal of goo 1 counsel. You know I've taught you, before closing your eves, always to say, "Now I lay me down to sleep, etc.," besides a good many oilier things in the way of exhortation and advice. But this is the last opportunity I shall have of speaking to you, and I couldn't let it pass without giving you my parting advice. Be a good boy, Thomas, and always say that pretty prayer when you arc going to slep. I fear 1 shall never see you a.-ain.,' As ho said this in a verv solemn man-n-r, tho poor boy begin to be frightened, and burst into tears with this exclamation: "You never see me again, pa?" "No for J .shall die Of f ore ytji act lark irith th? horse!" This quickened Thomas' ideas; an 1 gathering up the bridle reins, he ran and caught the horse quieker than hi had ever done before. A (jiuF.AT Storv. We saw a young man gazing at tlie ry heavens, with a f in 1 X" and a . of jiistols in the other. YVe cndeavoicd to attract his atlOtion by .ing to a ati in a pajier we held in our V, rellling 2 a young 111.1:1 i:t that S of coitntry. who had left home in a late of de-ratig-nient. He dropped the and pistols from his jtJC-e?"", with the ! 'It is I of whom U read. I had l.ft hoir.e b I my friends knew my design. I had s'J the of a girl who refused to lisTJ l2 me but smiled bl&lyupon another. I ed madly from the liou.se, uttera wild ! to the god of love, and without replying to the ??? of my friends, cami here with this f of pistols to put a . to my existence. My case- has no in this S.' Love. Tho imperishable, inexhaustible unapproachable nature of love is shown in this that all tlie millions of love stories that have been w ritten have not one whit abated the immortal interest that there is in the rudest and stupidest love story. All the rest of the wretched thing may be the most dismal twaddle, but you can't help feeling a lit'le interest when you have once taken up the book, as to whether Arabella will ultimately relent in favor of Augustus ; iii il whether that wicked cteature, man or woman, w ho is keeping them apart will not soon bo disposed of somehow. . o A Yankkk. He is self-denying, self-relying, and into everything prying. He is a lover piety, propriety, tiotcrieiy, and the Temp Tanec Sm iety. He is a dragging, bragging, striving, thriving, swapping. jostling, hustling, wrestling, musical, ijuizzie.il, astronomical, philosophical, poetical and comical sort of a character, whose manifest destiny is to spread civilization to the remotest corner of the earth. A Hint that is not Had to Takk.-TIic sound of your hammer, says Franklin, at live in the morning, or nine at night, heard by a creditor, makes him easy six months longer; but if he sees you at the gambling table, or hears your voice at the tavern when you should Jkj at work, lie sends for his money next day. jTTln clearing up one of the rooms at Stanwix Hall yesterday, a waiter discovered a cat so crowded into a boot, that it was with difficulty that he could be exlricated. Having got, her out; the next question in order was, 'How did .she get in?' This was lea ling toa long-w inded dispute, when one of the bystanders took up the boot and g iv.) it a shake, and tossed a half grown vat upon the floor. Tlie discovery of the rat solved the riddle. The rat, to escape the cat, rushed into tho boot; the cat, tosecure a good game dinner rushed in after him with such force that site could not back out again. Learn wisdom from pussy, and never 'go it blind,' even in a good cause. Alhnntj ffntcA:

Ax Interesting Story. 'Short, mine Shon,' said a worthy German father to his heir of ten years, whom he had overheard using profane lar.guage. Shon, mine Shon! come here and I vill dell you a little stork's. Now mine Shon, shall it pe a drue story or a makes-pelieve.' 'Oh, a true story, of course,' answered John. 'Ferv voll den.

SiWDAT Fox Hi nt in a Citv Cnuncii Yakd. Last Sundry, a tame fox, having escaped from the custody of its owner, and having taker, without leave an ample chicken breakfast, was disporting himself in tho graveyard to St. John's Church, at the corner of Hudson and Vaiiek streets. A due complement of the people, policemen and hounds were soon in pursuit, and the sly, and agile fugitive; leapingabout am :ng the grave stones, had to try his possibles to preserve hislife. A policemen discharged a musket at him at a few paees distant, but the shot was a total mistake. The hunt became very exciting for a time, when the runaway was caught by one of the hounds, and restored alive to its owner, X. V. M'rror. jti'AVilliam Howitt, in his Australian tour, says that he lived three weeks upon fricassed Kangaroo. At the end ofthat time he had acquired such remarkable agility that he could jump sixty feet without straining the seat of his unmentionables. He didn't discontinue the diet until he found himself beginning to acquirea a growth of fur. iTfrJudgo Egbert i:i the St. Joseph Common Pleas Court, in session this week, decided in an appeal case that the clause in the Indiana Temperance Law prohibiting tho sale of spiritous liquors, unless fr meicinal or mechanical purposes, is constitutional and valid. Smith Hon! Jiiyisfcr. Making a Million Stkokfs. A man la'ely accepted a challenge to make one million strokes with a pen and ink within a mouth, not to be mere scratches or dots, but fair-down stiokes. such as forms the ehilJs first lessons in writing. The month was to be four weeks; ho was to abstain from the task on Sundays, so that he must average about oG,0U0 strokes per day. On the first da)- he executed 50.000; on the second day nearlvas many. But at length after many days, the hand beeame stilfand weary, and the wrist swollen, and it required the constant attendance of a relation or friend to besprinkle it, without interrupting his progress over the paper, with a lotion calculated to invigorate it. On the 23 1. day the the million strokes, exceeded by some few thousands 'to make assurance doubly sure,' were accomplished. X. Y. Minor. - - 'I reckon I love yer,' sai 1 a Yankee accountant to Iiis sweetheart. 'How on arth Jonathan, do you arrive at that conclusion ?' inquired the fair one. simple addition,' replied the ready reckoner; 'for when I have you hanging on my arm, my sum of happiness is complete The wisest, periol of a man's lifj is between eighteen and twenty two ; af er this I his knowingness so falls off, that by the time he reaches lif.y-five or sixty, he makes up his mind that he is a fool. jT-t-"Take the following, says a Zanesville scribe, as a specimen of art: 'IJilt by r it m. tics, arkiteks, In the year a. d. 1 800 Az 63. The above is a correct copy of an inscripti n over the door of a very respectable buildingnhout six miles fiom C'hillicothe, Ohio. Wonder if it wasn't intended for rhyme! jr-Why is the letter K like a pigs tail? Ans. Ilccauso its the end of pork. it-J"What is stronger in death than in life? An old yellow legged hen. If you dotit believe it, try to di.scect one after boilin" iC-t?" If you wish to curea scolding wife, never fail to laugh at her with all your might until she ceases, then kiss her. Sure cure, and no quack medicine! A green un who had never seen a steamboat, fell through the hatchway down into the hold of tho Winfkdd S 'ott, and beiti" unhurt, loudly expressed Iiis astonishment: 'Well! if the darned thing ain't holler! We once overheard the following conversation between two small boys, which goes to show the importance of home education: 'What do you think ! My fither said he shot nine h tin red and ninety-nine pigeons, the other day, with one barrel of his Lfun. 'Gosh ! why did n't he say a thousand at oacet. The, little fellow replied reprovingly: Do you suppose my father would tell a falsehood for one pigeon ?' An exchange says that the last thing a man does is to repent. That is a mistake the last thing done is to piy his printer's bill. Punch says the reason why editors are so apt to have their manners spoiled is beeause they rec ive such vast numbers of evil communications. A sleepy Deacon, who sometimes engaged in popular game, hearing the minister use the words, '.sh utile oil" this moital coil,' started up, rubbed his eyes, and exclaimed; 'Hold on ! it's my ileal !' Dobbs, the portrait painter, says that everything should be in character. For instance, search-warrants should be printed on tracing paper, and wedding notices on fools cap.
