Messrs. BatehGna d Harris In reply
to " Hen-quiries," in your paper of Dec.
lst, 1854, will make few suggestions:
AS to the construction Of good and
cheap hen-house, l cannot give any reli-
able advice but as to the best poultry
for laying, raising for sale, hardness, and
eggs never failing to hatch we'll, which is
the great difficulty with the blooded chick
ems, (at least find it so,) and also what
breed will be likely to sell best two or
three years hence, | can, without any
hesitation, as have had quite an expert
ence-said to have the best and greatest
variety of chickens in this part Of Ohio,

and among these give the Java a pref
erence, by great deal; yes, they are
one hundred per cent. better than either
of the others mentioned, and all who are
acquainted with them will say the same;
at least | find it so. --o

New York, Sept. I3, 1858. After had
purchased the breeds that knew of, the
chicken grower with whom was dealing
told me it would never do for me to come
West without the Javas, and gave me the
history of them. purchased cock and
pullet two months old, paid pretty high,
as | thought then, and to my astonish-
ment she commenced laying in the next
month. thought it would not do to lose
the eggs, and set to work and fixed up
a house with a stove in it, and set the
eggs under China hen, taking care not
TO set my Java hen; kept her laying.
She grew finely, and kept fat all the
while. The chickens were hatched in
January following. | raised the whole
brood except one, and it was killed in the
door. They all proved to be pullets, ex-
cept one. The pullets all commenced
laying in May 1854, within few days
of each other 1 was fearful of setting
the first laying, but they all hatched well,
and in few weeks the chickens had
grown almost out of my knowledge.
This fall | exhibited the winter broods
and their summer broods at the Warren

ceived the first premium over all other
chickens as being the best for all puIPo-

TRANSLATED FROM THE FRENCH.


1t is not at the other watering places
on the Rhine as at Baden, where the sea-
son lasts in all its brilliancy and throng
of visitors until the last days of autumn
force the company home. Baden has
singular good fortune, and its inRumera-
bic attractions have increased and secured
it popular favor. Elsewhere the compa-
ny began to decrease even daily in Sep
tember. As soon as the Count de Cham
bord took his departure, Wisenbaden was
instantly deserted, and grass will shortly
grow in the large and monumental streets
of that city, which resemble Versailles.
The season lasts little longer at Erns,
but early in September it is easy to see
that it cannot be of long continuance.
AT this early date the circle of visitors is
not renewed ranks daily become thin
ner, and soon that beautiful spot will be
divested of IFS ornaments as the trees of
their leaves, like them to rejuvinate and
be terminated next spring.
The story, or rather the true story,
which will shortly be narrated, was CON-
municated 10 me as | shall presently re-
late, at Ems some years ago. of ali the
watering places on the Rhine, Ems most
resembles Baden by the charms of the
surrounding country, and the choice Of
the society, which faithfully returns there
year after year. Besides, Ems has the
reputation of being the diplomatic water
ing g-place. The most celebrated states
men gladly give themselves rendezvous
there to treat secretly about their most
important affairs. NJ de Nesselrode fire.

may, while taking his morning walk,
come 10 Ems from his chateau of Johan-
nisburg, situated a few leagues from it,
and in the same Duchy ofNassau. The
chateau of Siolzenfels, belonging 10 the
king of Prussia, is also placed in the
neighborhood of Ems, being distant from
it only some three leagues; and the
Prince, as well as his Ministers, often
come for a promenade to Ems during The
stay the Prussian Court annually makes
every summer in the Manor so pictur-
esqueIy reconstructed on the banks of the
Rhine.

CONVERSATIONS FOR CRIME IN
THE OLDEN TIME.

For the purpose of checking the null
tiplicity of private feuds and combats
which disfgured his reign, King Edward
established various compensations for loss
of life, making no discrimination between
manslaughter and murder 1t appears
that Kings life was valued at thirty
thousand christmas, computed to be thir-
teen hundred pounds, or about six thou
sand dollars! If any one killed King,
this was the damage, " by paying which
he was acquitted of guilt. The value of
prince was one half this sum. By
payment of three thousand dollars, one
might have the privilege of killing
prince! A bishop or an alderman was
worth about half as much as a prince
A sheriff was valued at eight hundred
dollars. This was not his salary, but
what his murderer must pay! The hus-
bandman, or "creole," was worth only
about fifty dollars. A King was worth
one hundred and twenty common men 4
In this singular tariff an archbishop was
worth more than a King. A scale of
prices for wounds and injuries was for
merly in operation. Thus we find in the
early Saxan annals, that wound an inch
length under the hair, was settled by
payment Of one shilling; wound of like
sizs in the face, two shillings; the loss Of
an ear was rated equivalent TO thirty !
shillings. These estimates applied to all
classes.

THE OLD BACHELORS NEW YEAR.

By CHARLES GRAHAM HALPISE-
Oh. the Spring hath less CT brightness
Every year,
And the snow ghastlier witness
Every year;
Nor do Summer blossoms quicken,
Nor does Autumn's fruitage thicken,
As it did-the seasons sicken
Every year
1t is growing colder, colder,
Every year.
And feel that 1 am older
Every year;
And my limbs are less elastic,
And my fancy not so plastic,
Yes, my habits grow monastic,
Every year.
'Tis becoming bleak and bleaker
livery year,
And ny hopes are waxing weaker
Every year;
Care now for merry dancing.
Or for eyes with passion glancingi
Love is less and less enhancing
Every year
Oh, the days that have squandered
Every year,
And the friendships rudely sundered
Every year
OF the ties that mig ght have twined me,
Until time to death resigned me,
My inirmities remind me
Every year
Sad and sad to look before Us
Every year.
With heavier shadow DER US
Every year!
To behold each blossom faded,
And to know we might have made it
An immortal garland braided
Round the year.
Many spectral beckoning finger,
Year by year,
Chides me that so long 1 linger,
Year by year;
Every early conrad sleeping
In the churchyard, whittier, weeping,
I, alone, unwept, am creeping,
Year by year.

We are lowly-very lowly,
Misfortune is our crime;
We have been trodden under foot
From all recorded time.
4 yoke upon our necks is Eidr
A burden to endure
To suffer is our legacy,
The portion Of the poor
We are lowlv-very lOwly,
And scorn'd from day to day;
Yet we have something Of our own
Power cannot take away.

By cold and hunger kilfd;
But peace IS in our hearts, it speaks

We are lowly-very lOwiy,
Nor house nor land have We,
But there's heritage for US
While we have eyes to see-
They cannot hide the lovely stars,
Words in creations book
Although they hold their fields and lanes
Corrupted by our look!
We are IowIy-very IoEly.
And vet the fairest flowers,
That by the wayside raise their eyes
Thank God they still are ours !
Ours is the streamlet's mellow voice.
And ours the common dew;
We still dare gaze on hill and plain,
And field and meadow too!
We are lowly-very lowlyi
But when the cheerful Spring
Comes forth with flowers upon her feet
To hear the throstle sing,
Although we dare not seek the shade
Where haunt the forest deer,
The waving leaves we still can see
The hymning birds can hear
We are Iowly-yery lowlyi
Our hedgerow paths arc gone,
Where wooabines laid their fairy hands
The hawthorn's breast upon
Yet slender mercies still are left,
And heaven doth endure,
And hears the prayers that upward rise

WHERE CORK COMES FROM.

Cork is nothing more or less than the
bark of evergreen oak, growing princi-
pally in Spain, and other countries bord-
ering the Mediterranean in English
gardens it is only a curiosity. When
the cork-tree is about fifteen years old,
the bark attains a thickness and quality
suitable for manufacturing proposes; and
after stripping, further growth of eight
years produces a second crop; and so
on at intervals, for even tn or twelve
crops. The bark is stripped from the
tree, in pieces two inches in thickness
of considerable length, and of such width
as to retain the curved form of the trunk
when 1t has been stripped. The bark
pealer or cutter, makes a slit in the bark
with knife, perpendicularly from the
top OF the trunk to the bottom he makes
another inciSsion parallel to it, and at
some distance from the former and two
shorter horizontal cuts at the top and
bottom. For stripping off the piece thus
isolated, he uses kind of knife with
two handles and curved blade. Some
times after the cuts have been made, he
leaves the tr=e to throw off the bark by
the spontaneous action of the vegetltion
within the trunk. The det ,tched pieces
are socked in water, and are placed over
a fire when nearly dry They are, in
fact, scOrched little on both sides to
acquire somewhat mere compact tex
ture by this scorching. In order to get
rid of the curvature, and bring them fiat,
they are pressed down with weights
while yet hot.

BILE. Liebig has lately performed series
Of experiments to improve the preparation
of bread, from which he comes to the con-
clusion that the only effective and innocn-
lous means of improving the qualities Of
wheat and rye bread, is lime water. In
making dough he advises one pint of clear
lime water to be used for every FIVE
pounds of -four The lime water is first
added to the -four, after which sufficient
quantity Of common water is added to
work the whole into good common doug
the leaven being mixed with wafer can
be prepared by stirring some quick lime
in vessel containing pure cold water
then allowing the sediment to settle. The
clear is then to be poured of, aud kept ina
bottles for use. Nocare is required re-
specting the quantity of lime to be stirred
in the water, as il will only take auplsa
certain quantity of lime, and no ymore.--s
Those who use saleratus (bicarboaate Of
soda J in the raising of bread, are recorn-si
mended to cease'ils use, and employ Purs8
bakers yeast and little lime-waler.---s
Our bones are composed of tbs phosphate
of lime, and those who use fine -four re-
quire for their health little more lime

To KEEP CELERr.-Celeiy should be
taken from the trenches before the ground
freezes hard. If to be kept in cellar,
it should be one kept not much warmer
than Just above the freezing point
Make ridge Of earth on one side of the
cellar, next to forty FIVE degrees. Then
proceed to lay the celery close together
in a row. Place about an inch Of dirt o
over the layer Of celery. and then an
other layer, and continue until all is
snugly slowed away. There should be
sufficient quantity of dirt to keep the .
roots and stalks from touching each other.
1t may be taken out at any time during
the winter It may be kept in the open
grJund BY placing over The celery sun
cient straw or coarse manure to keePit
from the frost. We prefer the. former
plan as the most safe.
