Your neighbours Hens.

a.. kept his hens shut up. He was not
gong to have his garden destroyed by his
W or his peighbor's hens. One morning
he saw a couple digging in his early pea
bed, and out he went with murder in his
heart, but the hens flew over into neighbor
B s garden whereupon A. called over to
him very angrily that he would shoot the
next hen he saw on his side of the fence, if
he did not shut them up, which B. declared
he would not do, "aAd if A. was fool enough
to shoot them, he might do it, for all that
be cared" A. was as good as his word,
and day after day b.. was saluted with the
smell of gunpowder, and a message thrown
overt the fence with every fatpullet, "There's
another chicken for your dinner" until at
length, not finding the usual supply, B. call
ed over one morning to neighbor A. to
know the reason. This awakened inquiry.
when it was discovered that A. had been
shooting his own hens as they occasionally
escaped through a hole in the coop, and in
anger at his n%eighbor for the supposed tres
pass, had furnished him with sundry good
dinners. No doubt he was a little mad at
hrst, and thought any cunning trick after
that better than shooting his neighbours
hens.

The Apostate Youth.


" s. LOWELL, EDITOR OF THE vANKEE NATION
l saw the fields in all their pride,
With scattered flowers on every side
The rose was fully blown.

On that sweet rose his eyes he cast,
And marked it for his own.
saw him pluck that lovely flower
TWAS gone and faded in an hour-
No more to please the eye.

And in my heart was forced te say,
" So all our pleasures die"
I saw a lovely youth disclose,
With all the beauties Of The rose,
The graces of his mind.
| saw him choose the path Of peacei
His heart pursued true happiness
Twas not to i'll inclined.

Of virtues past there was no trace
No sweet recognisance.

Some hand from him those graces tore
