CHICKENS should hatch on the 21st day,
or few hours later at the furthest. Save
removing the empty shells, do not interfere
with the nest for twenty-four hours; then
put the mother and her brood into coop;
feed with oatmeal and pairing meal, equal
parts, mixed with water, into orumbling
state, OF. bread soaked in milk and squeezed
dry give the chicks twice daily little
water to drink, but do not leave it beside
them. Some writer's on poultry advise the
removal of the little scale from the tip of
the chickens bill, but this practice is as
cruel as it is necessary.

CESSATION OF ANIMALs.--M. Tessier, who
for period of many years, was Superin-
dent Of Experimental Farm established IN
der an auspices Of the French Government
at Paris, found that of $50 mares, the
shortest period was 287, and the longest 40
days-exhibiting the surprising difference
of one hundred and thirty-two days! An
other author observes that the most conclu-
sive and satisfactory experiment on record,
is that instituted by order of Lord Spencer,
in which the period Of CESSATION in no less
than 764 COWS, was accurately ascertained
From this it appears that the shortest period
in which live calf was produced was 220
day; but no calf produced under 242 days
could be reared. The longest period of ges-
tation was given in the Journal Of the Royal
Agricultural Society it appears that 314 cows
calved before the 284th day, and 80 calved
after the 285th day, 50 that the probable pc
Rod of CESSATION in this useful animal may
be fixed at 284 or 285 day. The average
period of CESSATION in the eve is given by a
German author, as 161 days and that of The
SOW as l43 - ip

THE CONTRAST.

There is a remarkable contrast between the
Courtesy accorded by his political opponents
&c Mr.. Lincoln when on his tour through the
country, and the indecent treatment given to
President johnson by has political opponents
during his current trip.
II will De remembered that Mr. LincoIn's
hurried, of-haud railroad speeches were fire.
qurntly 80 crude and 'swanting in Presidential
dignity" as the phrase goes that prominent
Republican paper, in its yexation, declared
that ''there was a conspiracy OF telegraph ope-
rators 10 destroy his reputation as a public
speaker. His opponents did not, however
consider this cause for treating the Presi-
dental office, represented in his person
with Indignity.
President Johnson is concededly an effective
logical off, hand speaker. Despite the dIscred
liable attempts of the radical press to throw
Tidicule upon his speeches, il is certain thai
not one public man IN a thousand could acauit
himself so well has the President in the
numberless off, hand efforts he has been called
upon TO make since he assumed the Presiden-
tial chair. Yet on this tour we have seen him
repeatedly interrupted in the course of
thoughtful argumentatiye remarks by foul
mouthed ribaldry and abuse. That he should
not occasionally reply with some vigor to this
attempt 10 silence him was hardly TO be ex-
pected from one of his force of character and
Jacksonian temperament. But IL should be re-
membered that he was never the aggressor in
these conflicts.
The radicals, through their Atlantic Hoat5Iiss
and otherwise, are wont 10 claim for them.

on their part TO silence the President of the
