A SATISFACTORY EXPERIMENT.-We
take from Hutchtngs' California Maga-
zine the following account of an expert
ment on Chinaman by the Digger Indians
on the Costumes river:
When the Indians first saw Cinnamon
at work on this river, just above this spot,
there arose dispute among them as to
whether Cinnamon were Indians or not
one party arguing that they were an inferi-
or kind of Indians that lived far over the
big water; and the other, that their eyes
and general expression of the face, in no
way resembled those of an Indian; conse-
quently they could not belong to the Indi-
an people at all. They all, however, came
to the conclusion, that if Cinnamon were
Indians they could certainly swim. This
being decided upon, they soon determined
to prove the fact; and, while Chinaman
was crossing log, (when the river was at
its highest the Indians, without any fur
ther ado, quietly pushed him into the sur
ging stream and drowned him. This at
once set the question at rest; and all are
now agreed that Cinnamon are not Inda-

PoULTRY.-The Boston Journal IN
speaking of the Agricultural show racent-
lv held at Bradford, Vermont, thus notices
the decline of the "Hen Fever"
Chickabiddy-dom is very poorly repre-
sented. The very last specimen of the
"Imperial Chittagong,' Gas some gull-trap-
per dubbed the tall, screeching, indescri-
bable, yclept Shanghaes, are here exhibit
ted and are as great curiosities in their
way as the "unicorn," the "guyascutas"
or other tabled freak of nature. Some
Polish and black Spanish biddies-mode-
rately good-and some fine China and
Bremen geese made up the show. The
absence of native hens shows, with an ex-
ception or two enumerated above, that the
taste of the exhibitors is more in favor Of
legs than eggs

: In some of the forests of Western n. York,
growing on the broad lowlands, this plant pre-
sents most conspicuous and striking appear
ance, when its leaves change color in autumn.
The branchless trunks of the trees to height
of sixty or seventy feet, are not unfrequently
covered from bottom to top with an uninter-
rupted mass of brilliant crimson, and even
many of the larger limbs up among the dense
green of the forest, are enveloped in the same
fiery glow.-CultiUator.
fOne of the finest plants of the Wistaria in
this country is now growing at Yorkville, near
New York. 1t covers an arbor, some fifteen
feet in length and breadth and there were the
past season about four thousand racemes of flow
ers, each raceme being large enough to fill ones
