Interesting to Poulterers.

Our attention was attracted few days
since in passing down near the foot of Clay
street to lot of poultry of species entirely
different from any of the common stock
which we have been accustomed to see about
the barn yard. Upon inquiry we found that
they had just arrived on board the steamer
Sonora-imported from New York by Long
& Brothers-the great pouterers of Alamo
da County. There were four species Of these
birds. The Brama Prootra-Bolton Gray
Poland and White and Black African Ban
tam. The first of these is remarkable for
its size, being the largest bird Of the Biddy
tribe that we have ever seen-at least third
larger than the celebrated "Shanghai." The
Bolton Grays and Polands are noted for
their laying habits. The Bottoms have been
known to lay every day for two years with
out showing any disposition to incubate.
The African Bantams are very small, but the
most beautiful fowls we ever saw. The Mes
srs. Long informed us that some of the hens
cost them s75 per pair in New York. They
were all choice stock and the purest breeds
They now have them upon their farm in AL
ameda County, where we presume they will
be able to supply those who wish to make
additions to their poultry stock.

with some success, although the scarcity of

the working being carried on to any great
