nimateii Nature

Turkey Their llisforjr, Ilabit. Culture. The wild turkey belong. to the Gallina euu 10 me mauaeris eailnavo. and is V i I 1 found only in America. Its original range extended from the northwestern part of the United States to the Isthmus of Panama. It is now mostly confined to the ensettled or thinly inhabited portions of Arkansa?, Louisana, Tennessee. Alabama, Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, II linois, and the rast territory ly ing weal and southwest of these States, though fiund in small numbers in Georgia, Florida, the Carolina?, Virginia, and Penusy'vania. Turkeys of a mongrel variety, produced by a crossing of the wild and lerne breeds, are found in the mountainous parts of Sussex County, ' J. and in western New York, and usually called wild turkeys. They are occasion ally brought to the New York end Phila delphfa markets. Some of the peculiar habits of this bird are thus described in the" Trans actions of the American Institute'' for 1852. The wild turkeys do not confine tbem- - . f l r i . . l. "7"" uj Pi.u..r iouu; j M luuita k'iu, aii OIIU3 ui ierrira, nun, grains, and grasses; and even tadpoles, grasshoppers, young frogs, and lizards are constantly found in their crops; but here the pecan nut (a ririety of the hickory) is plenty, they prefer that food to every other. Their more general predilictlon is. however, for the acorn, or mast, chestnut, beechnut, etc., on which they readily fatten. About tha beginning of October, while the mast or aback still remains on the trees, they assemble in flocks, and direct their course to the rich bottom lauds.At this season they are observed in great numbers ia the vatlej of the Ohio and Mississippi. The lime of ibis irruption is known to Indians by the name of turkey month. The males, usually termed goblers as senate in parties numbering from ten to a hundred, and seek their food apart from the females; while the latter either mora about singly with their young, then Dearly two thirds grown, or, in com panv with other females and their families, form troops, sometimes consisting of seventy or eighty individuals, all of whom are intent on avoiding the old males, who, whenever an opportunity offers, attack and destroy the young by repeated blows on the head. I A wicked unnatural predisposition to evil, which we can neither excuse nor account for All parties however, travel in the sam direction, and on fool, unless they are compelled to seek their individual safety by flying from the hunter's dog, or their march is impeded by natural obstructions. When the turkeys have surmounted 11 difficulties, and arrived in their land of abundance, (hey disperse iu small Hocks, composed of individuals of all sexes and ages intermingled, who devour all the roast as they advance; this occurs about the middle of November. It has been observed that after these long journeys, the turkeys become so familiar ; K M a 3 . . near me (arm nouses ona plantations, as to enter the stables and corn-cribs in search of food; in this way they pass the autum and part of the winter. During this season, great numbers are killed by the inhabitants, who preserve them in s frozen slate, in order to transport them : to distant markets. Early in March '.hey begin to pair, and for a tiiort time previous the females! aeperate and shun their males, though the latter pertinaciously follow them ul lering their gobbling notes. The sexes roost apart, but a. no great distance, that when the females utter a call, every male within hearing responds, rolling note after note in the most raidd succes a ion; not as when spreading the tail and atrntting near the hen, but in a voice re aembling thai of the tame turkey, when he hears any unusual or frequently repeated noise. Where the turkeys are . numerors, the woods from one end to j the other, sometimes for hundreds of yards, resound with this remarkable voice J of thai wooing, uttered responsively from their roosting-places this is contin 1 öed for about an hour, and on the rising of the tun they silently descend from 1 their perches, and the males begin to! strut, for the purpose of winning the I admiration of tbe females, If the call ! be given from tbe ground, the males in 1 the vicinity &f toward ihe individual. ! and whether they perceive her or not, e j reel and spread 1ieir tails, throw the bead hack ward, distend their comb and wattles, stmt pompously, and rustle their wings! and -body feathers. While thus occu pied, they occasionally halt to look out for the female, and then resume their strutting and pompous movement. Du , ring this ceremonious approach the males ; often encounter each other, and fierce bat lies ensues, wnen tne connici is ooiy ier minated by the flight or death of the van quished.

At; ibis fime the females shun the maier du . ring the greater part ef tbe day; the males become cLmsy and careless, meet each j other peacefully, and cease to gobble. j Tha sexes then separate; the male, be-' ing thin and meager, retire and conceal j themselves by prostrate trees in eecmceu parts of the forest, or in the almoet impenetrable recesses cf a cane break. Abort tbe middle of April, when the weather ia dry the female selects s proper place in which to depoait her egga, secured from the encroachments of water, and, as far as poasiWe coucealed from the? watchful eye of tbe crow, this craftbird espies the hen going to her neat, and haying discovered tbe precious deposit, watts foe the absence of the parent, end reneeyee every one of tbe eggs from tbe spot, that he may devour them at his leisure.

Cactiousb ess and Secbetivenlss large. When laying or sitting, the turkey hen is not easily driven from her post by the approach of apparent danger; but if an enemy appears, she crouches as low aa possible, and suffers it to pass. They seldom abandon their nests on account of being discovered by man. but should a snake or any other wild animal, suck one of her egga. the parent leaves Ibem nl together. If the ezss be removed, she again seeks the male, and recommences laying, though otherwise she lays but ; one nest of fees during the season. ' Several tuikey hens sometimes associate, perhaps for mutual safely, ond de ! posit their eggs in the same nest, and j rear their broods together. Mr. AuJub n once found three females kilting on j forty-two eggs. In such cases the nest I is constantly guarded by one of the par ilies, so that no cow, raven, or polecat j j dare approach it. The mother will not ' forsake her eggs when near hatching, j while life remains, she will suffer an inclosure to be made around and imprist on her, rather than abandon her charge. Large Philobooes itivbess. ) The wi!d turkey is much esteemed as ' an article of food, beingj superior in fla rot to the tsme. On this account it is much hunted. They are very shy, and i diffkult to approach under on'marr cir j cumstances, in the daytime, and when on ; the ground; but a knowledge of their j habits placea them almost who.ly within ihe power of the skillful hunter, who. j according to Audubon, when ihey are all ! quietly perched for the night, takes a ; stand previously chosen by daylight, and when the rising moon enables hsm to take 1 sure aim, shoots them down at leisure; and by carefully singling out those on' the lower branches first, he may in this way secure nearly the whole flock. j Neither ib; presence of the hunter, while j making his s'aughter, nor the report of his gun, seem to fiighten the turkeys in I the least, although the appearance of a j single owl or other birJ of prey would ' be sufficient to alarm the whole flock. j This fancied security or heedlessness of ; danger while at roost, is said to be char acteristic of all the gill-naceous birds of i North America. Another mode of ta king them is in pens, tn re Common and , more destructive, even, than shotting I them. These are made of log, cUse and 1 large enough to contain almost any num ber. They are baited by grain ot various -K; ä though mostly Indian corn, and enticed through an opening left for the purpose, the grain or feed being liberally spread on the floor within, and for some distance outside. One or two leaders will, in this way, sometimes secure a great many, say a more. The wild turkey is of a lead in aud hundred or glossy dark coior; ne is generally eaueu tnacs. nr is uot black, like the crow; he is more of a ferruginous or iron color, with small shining coppery brown spots, especially on the wings and tail. In the wild state, a while or even a speckled turkey is unknown, and we venture to siy that a plain black one hns hardly ever occurred. The light-colored or gray tame turkeys are said to be scrofulous and sickly, while the darker the color the more hardy is the bird. Good judges avoid the bleached or light-colored for breeding, and only "keep" the darkest and best. Our object has been to give a brief sketch of the natural history of the wild turkey, and not to write an article on diet; but we may remark in closing, that while we deem wild turkeys and other wild game much less objectionable as food than the unhealthy and unnaturally fatted domestic animals, whose flesh covers the tables of our people, and converts their stomachs into living sepulchers, still we believe that in advocating a far inaceous and fruit diet, we promote the true civilization and elevation of the tace. Will it not be far better to devote less attention to turkeys and pigs, and more to turnips and potatoes, as well as to apples, pears, peaches, grapes, and plums? So savs Life Illlustrated. a sassi -w CÜT"A good story is told on a tall, raw-boned fellow, who went into a j market house, on I seeing a Urge hog on exibition, was mighiiiy struck with 'I swear,' said he.

'Are you a justice of the peace?' Yes. sit.' 'Weil, I swear,' said the profane one. 'I am more astonished at that than I was about the hog.' A couple of gentlemen, who were noted for their boldness in 'elongating veracity,' were one day taking a stroll together, and insensibly entered upon a contest of exaggeration. As t clincher, one of them pointed to e distent stepie, and commenced descanting upon tbe color of a fly which be said As could plainly oee crateliug up the Bpire!' The other shaded his eyes and gazed sharply towards the spot indicated, for a few momenta, and then said: Ah, I can't Bee tha Insect, bat I knew it's there, for Sean hear it step!'

The moment R idway'a Reulators are taken into the system afflicted with disease, their equalizing effieaey begins they search out the ulemeuts of disease wherever ii mav be seated; they act upon the whole aartsee of the intestines and boweb, attracting the foul and morbid humors from the blood, glaud. secreting vessels, and ex ell ing these seeds ol disease from the body, restoring a healthv and r iular notion to tbe Liver, B .we!. Pancreea, Ueart, Kidm y-, Bladder, Ski u and all other Vlesstsu tue sawsts. All of the seWBSBOB piils of the day. called Vegetable, Indian, Caihar'ic. Ske. claim that they cure dlaceiO by purging Ir-un the bowels. This i a far as they go they act up n the bowels by irritating the nmcuous membrane, and thun obtain an evacuation in the same manner as the bowels are moved by eating something that disagrees with the system. This is truly an unnatural met bed of restoring the system' to hcaltn, by swallowing pills that irritates and duagrees with it, Those who hive taken these common pills are well aware of the weak and debilitated coudition their systems are lefl in. After the scouring operatiou of these drastic purgatives is over, the bowels are sore and feeble, and agaiu become costive and bound up. Honce arises djspepria and a host of other diseases. Railway's Regulators never leave the bowels in a costive condition, or occisioii pain or weariness in their operation. NO. I.
