A CRACK RoosTER.-The Southbridge
Journal states that Mr.. H. w. Nichols of
that town, had a nice Bramah rooster,
which ate quantity of grain, grass, &C.,
it stopped everything except fluids pass
ing from the crop The rooster refused
to eat after few days, and Mr. Nichols
was seriously apprehensive OF losing him
unless in some way relief could be af-
forded. Mr.. Nichols, therefore made an
incision in the breast, opened the crop
and took out the contents. The grain
in the crop had sprouted one-half inch
long. After emptying the crop he
sewed it up and the skin also. He was
fed sparingly one week, and then let out.
The rooster is now all sound and right
and as animated as ever

FATAL MIsTAKE-DEATH OF YOUNG
LADY.-Susan W. Shepard, a young lady
twenty one years Of age, daughter of s.
Shepard, formerly Of the American Ho-
tel, Troy, died at Saratoga on Saturday,
from the effects of wrong dose given
by physician. In explanation of the
mistake, the physician states that there
are two bottles standing near together
on his shelves labelled respectively Ger
anium" and GO Gelseminum," the con-
tents Of which are similar in appearance.
He intended to give the "-Geranium,n
but was deceived in looking at the label,
and inadvertently gave the "Gelsemin-
um." The Gelseminum," tends to pro-
duce nervous prostration, and in small
doses, such as was inadvertently given
to this young lady, would not ordinarily
have fatal effect. But in the case OF
Miss Shepard, her nervous system was
peculiarly susceptible to the prostrating
influence of the drug.

you have SO long held, we can only ex.
press ourselves by saying we shall Al

May happiness and prosperity attend

THOMAS SPENCER, Foreman,
and others.
Capt. Hitchcock thanked his former
associates for their good feeling mani.
tested towards him. He was glad to be
able to testify to the loyalty of the mem.
bers of this noble art, whom he now saw
around him. He had occasion some
time since, to adopt certain rules and
regulations which he feared at times
might have produced some III feeling
but the large number of friends he now
saw before him, together with the val
liable and beautiful present they brought
were sufficient to dissipate this fear.
This was the first present he had ever
received in this public manner perhaps
it would be the last, ferries of no, no,
hope not, but said he, wherever l 90,
or however long may live, shall al.
ways remember this gift, this occasion,
and these friends. / thank you all.
Among the guests surrounding the
Captain we noticed Maj. Porter, Provost
Marshal; Major Walker, Paymaster U,

Colhurn, Secretary to Maj Walker; 1t

Mr.. Spencer formerly Lieutenant in the

gentlemen and ladies whose names

The whole affair was a pleasant one;

ToRNApoEs-Very unusual and

ToRNADoEs.-Very unusual and de-
structive atmospheric phenomena have
recently taken place in portions of Maine
and New Hampshire. In Bethel, Me-,
and the surrounding towns, last Mon
day, there was tornado, the effect of
which, according to the Oxford Demo-
crat, was manifest in cutting down all
the growing crops and the grass and
uprooting and stripping trees of their
. foliage, even cutting off the twigs
and bruising the bark. It's track
was about half q mile in width. The
glass was broken out of houses in great
quantity, and the cellars were filled with
water. Hail fell in such quantities as
to form considerable drifts in various
places. The same daya terrific storm swept
over the town of NARROW, Stoddard and
Antrim, N. H. The trees were broken
down, the roads blocked, glass broken,
fields flooded and crops DESTROYED to a
very disastrous extent.

Tn PRosPRcr-OPISIoN OF Assis-
TAFT SECRETARY DANA special wash
ington, dispatch Of Monday, to the I'll
bune says; ...-. ";
Mr.. Dana, the Assistant secretary OF
War, who will be accepted throughout
the United States as one of the most IN
telligent and cool observers that have
studied the war, as well as one OF the
most truthful of men, has answered the
question of anxious enquirers here about
the situation of Petersburg, TO the effect
that Lees force is not more than two
thirds of Grants; that our losses last
week in the movement towards the well
don road were militarily unlmportant,
and that Grant had his hand on Lees
throat and would keep hiss hold until ne
strangled him to death.
He gives to all the assurance OF our
final and conclusive success. Among
the striking facts which Mr.. Dana has
mentioned is that we have at this mo-
ment 81 900 of the rebel soldiers as pris-
oners in our hands. The public feeling
here tonight is one of absolute unwayer-
ing confidence in the future and IN
Grant, and over and above all in Grants
army. The coolest and most soldierly
heads In Washington now declare that
it cannot be whipped-the nation IN
deed, can lean on it. -..r-..

by large number of the artisans for

Under the lead of their foreman, Mr..

where Capt. Hitchcock is a guest, and
after entertaining him and his friends
with a serenade, conducted in Jaegar's
best style, gave three hearty cheers for
their ex-Ghief, by whom they were in

usual size and beauty, was born aloftb by
two of their number, and planted be-
tween the two parlors, and around

81 THE WEATHER papers from all
parts of the country speak of the extra
ordinary heat of Saturday and Sunday.
In most parts of New England the Their
mometer ranged from 95 to 100 and the
New Haven people talk of ia. Such
hot weather is rare in dog days, and two
snch days in June are beyond the remem-
brance of the "oldest inhabitant." The
fact that we have had no rain since June
came in, and that the earth and every
growing thing is dried and parched by
many days sun, made the heat most
aggravating and hard to bear. But
there was decided change in the wealth
er on Monday, and people who could
not keep cool in any guise on Saturday
were not uncomfortable in oyercoats.-
All are hoping that the next change will
bring rain, and very likely it will. The
weatherwise argue, that now it is the
last quarter of the moon, that such
sudden cold snap is Often followed by
rain in few days, and that after so
long a drouth, with such favorable cir
cumstances combining, it must rain. We

Capt. Barker, u resident of Richmond,

to Rouse's Point with a restless horse.
From some cause the animal became in
furiated, and dashing away at the top
of his speed, threw the Captain out of
his carriage INJECTING such injuries that
he died the next day. Capt, Barker was
well known as a purchaser of the staple
productions of Northern New York.

SINGULAR INcrDENT-A very singular
war incident was noted in the Tenth
Massachusetts regiment few days
since. A sergeant had been engaged in
the Second division hospital the day
previous in placing upon a number Of
headboards the names of members of his
regiment who had been killed in the late
fight or had died in battle, which were
to mark their last resting place. There
was one board in excess, and, in a sport
i've vein, he placed with lead pencil
his own name upon it, and the date of
his demise, Goth Of June, as his term of
service had then expired and he was
about to leave, for home. The next
morning, while near the front bidding
his companions in other regiments a
farewell, he was struck in the breast by
a twenty FOUNDER PARROT and instantly
killed. His rsmains were inferred, and
the very headboard he had unthinkingly
inscribed with his own name was placed
over his grave, and, with date, correctly
marks for time his resting place.

GEN. Fosters MovEMENT.-The move
ment of Gen. Foster on the north side OF
the James river is regarded with a good
deal of interest. He has made sudden
advance up the river by route unex-
pected to the rebels, with a large force,
and aided by our gunboats. 1t is sup
posed that this movement is intended to
have an important bearing on the reduc-
ton of Fort Darling, and it will at least
operate as a powerful diversion in favor
of our operations about Petersburg, by
compelling a greater division and sep
aration of the rebel forces. -.ss ~,

FROM GEN. SHERMAS.-A correspon-
dent of the Tribune, writing from Sher-
mans army, June 10, says:
"The enemy evacuated their strong
position on Kenesaw Mountain just be-
fore daylight this morning, to the great
establishment of our troops, who expect
ed and were prepared for most despe-
rate battle at this point. As soon as the
retreat was discovered, Gen. Sherman
ordered pursuit, and up to the present
hour of writing, our skirmishers have
advanced beyond the first two rebel par
allels, with but little skirmishing, con-
fined to rebel cavalry, who are evidently
harassing our advance in order to give
Johnston time to get safely into his new
position. As | write the enemy's shells
are whizzing over our ranks, but with
out much effect. The entire army start
ed at an early hour this morning in full
pursuit. Orders have been given for the
cars to follow on to Marietta. We shall
undoubtedly occupy Marietta tonight.
