Hitherto it has been the policy Of oul
State to cede to the counties al the swamp
lands embraced within their limits. The
Dubuqas Expysss sad Herald estimates thai
there are about 100000 acres Of swamp
lands in Iowa. including those sold subse-
qusntto the passage Of the act Of Congress
Of 1850 and prior. to the filing OF the hist OF
such lands in the local Land Offices, and
which Of course will be refunded to the
State. II is now proposed that the Legis.
lature take some action on the subject, and
il 10 recommended thatinstead ofappropria-
ting the proceeds Of these lands to the coun-
ties il which they are situated, that q gen.
eral fund be constituted for the purpose OF
sustaining the benevolent institutions OF
che State; those Asylums erected BY the
humane Is homes for our unfortunate fell
low creatures, who from mental or physical
privation are incapable Of caring for them
selves. The suggestion is good one. and
q no fund exists for that especial purpose,
the cause Of humanity pleads in favor Of
such disposition Of the proceeds of the
sales Of the swamp lands.

The following incident connected with
the late battle. at Alma, isrelated by a cor
respondent of an English pape,:
AS the 95.h regiment was advancing, a
wounded Russian was calling piteousIy for
water, when poor Captain ELLINGTON, whose
heart was as kind and charitable as it was
stout and brave, ran up to him, and stoop-
ing gave him to drink from flask OF bran
dy and water which he carried in case he
should himself be wounded. This revived
the wounded man, and poor Ellington ran
forward to join his company, when the
wretch who had just been restored by his
charity hred at and shot him, his best
friend This so madden his poor brother,
Lieut.: ELLINGTON, who was in the same re-
glment, and close to him, that he in per-
forming desperate deed Of daring, also fell,
dearly selling his life in avenging the death
of his gallant brother. The two poor fell
lows were most affectionate brothers; they
fell together, and two better soldiers or
Drawer hearts never wore the cloth.

A Hen Hess in general.
BY HENRY WARD BEEcHER

love to sit just within the sunny edge OF
the south door, whose prospect is large and
beautiful, with an unread book for compa-
nv. For a book. like milestone to a
scythe, is meant not to feed, but to sharpen
the appetite A wagon rolls past, rafting
over the stones. From under the unthresh-
ed straw mice squeak and quarrel; lonesome
spiders are repairing their webs in the win
dows that catch nothing but dust and chaif.
Yet these bum-bailifs have grown plump on
something. wonder what a spider is think
ing about for hours together, down in the
dark throat Of his web, where he lies as still
as if he were dead.
Our old Shanghai steps up with pert
how -do-ye-do-sir, cooking his eye one-sided-
" at you ana uttering certain nondeseript
gutteral sounds. H. walks off grooming to
himself and his danes. 1t is all stiil again
There is not wind enough to culver hing
ing straw. or to pipe a leaf dance along the
fence. You fall into some sweet fancy that
inhabits silence, when all at once, with a
tremendous vociieration, out flies hen from
over your head, with an outrageous noise,
Gathering away as il you had been throwing
stones at her, or abusing her beyond endu-
rance The old Shanghai takes up the case,
and the whole mob Of the hennery Join the
outcry.
Nothing seems so aimless and simple as
hen. She usually goes about in vague and
struggling manner, articulating to herself
eacophonons remarks upon various topics.
The greatest event in hens life is COM
pound, being inadeup of an egg and cackle.
Then only she shows enthusiasm, when she
descends from the nest of duty, and proclaims
her achievement Ifyou chase her, she runs
cackling; if You pelt her with stones, she
streams through the air cachling all abroad
till the impulse has run OFT, when she sub
sides quietly into silly, gadding ben.
Now and then an eccentric hen may be
found, stepping quite beyond the limits Of
hen propriety. One such has persisted in
laying her daily egg in the house. She
would steal noiselessly in at the open door,
walk up stairs and leave plump egg upon
the children's bed. The next day she
would honor the sofa. On one occasion
she selected my writing table, and scratch
ing my papers about, left her card that
might not blame the children or servant.
for scratching my manuscript. Her deter
mination was amusing. One Sabbath
morning, we drove her out of the front hall
In few minutes she was heard behind the
house, andon looking out of the window,
she was just disappearing into the bedroom
window on the ground-floor! Word was
given, but before any ons could reach the
place, she had bolted out of the window
with victorious cackle, and her white, warm
egg lay upon the lounge. proposed to
open the pantry window, set the egg dish
within her reach, and let her put them up
herself, but those in authority would not
permit such deviation from propriety
Such breed of hens could never be popular
with the boys. 1t would spoil their glori-
Gus sport Of hunting hens nests.
