Winfield Scott is to-day, yesterday, viii be to-
morrow thousands of stronger every State of
this Union than party organization. The old men
and the young and children love him for his devo
ton and his great achievements. Gratitude may be
obteraed from the human heart by the love of office
and the thirst for distinction but among the masses
who are independent and live upon their own resour-
ces there is grateful feeling which party require
ments, however strongly enforced, obllterate.
The man who says General Scott cannot be elected
knows that he ISLANDERS the people of this country and
does violence to truth
The Democrats said, with equal assurance, that Will
liam Henry Harrison could not be elected; yet he
swept down the dense columns of Locofocos like
alanche, and went into the White House by over
whelming majority.
They said General Taylor would carry four States
and their most liberal allowance was six-yet he was
trulnphanty chosen.

his duty victory the setting of the I'd of

VISIT TO POULTRY YARD.-In compliance with the
invitation of our friend Mr. VIM. A. Buffers paid
visit Wednesday to his poultry yard, in the rear
of his residence LIST street between Main and Gary.
The visit was to us truly gratifying. There we saw
Shanghais of every description, brown, white and
black, stalking about like ostriches-Cochin Chinas
scarcely less in size and to the full ouandish in ap
pearance-Dominique Shanghais, remarkable for the
varegated aspect of their pumage-Chittagongs in all
the glory of long legs and immense frames-the whole
forming, to us, most UNIQUE assemblage. These fowls
all of pure and unadulerated strain, having been
raised by Mr. Chas Sampson of West Roxbury, Massa-
chusetts who has earned considerable a an
importer and breeder of poultry. The greatest care
has been devoted to the object of keeping the breed
unmixed. These fowls all of the useful Species
The Shanghais and Cochin Chnas supposed to be the
same breed) particularly famous for their large
SIZE for the quality of their meat for the number of
eggs they lay, for the large brood they fail
raise for their quiet and peaceful disposition for their
not scratching other chickens do for their inability
to iy over pangs and fences and for the facility with
which large numbers of them be raised in small
space Those best acquainted with them, indeed say
that hundred of them may be reared I'M space of
thirty feet square. They probably paronsed for
this reason by the Chinese, who all the world knows
have not much space to spare For all culinary purpo

chickens, furnishing meat, and laying many

gait from inactivity and weight, but yet their superior

not Judge of what they will be- further than that they
