It is stated that the eggs of the com.
mon hen, as we'll as those Of many other
other birds, present certain external
characteristics, by means of which it is
possible to determine beforehand the
sex to be Matched from them. Thus,
the male" egg has at its pointed end
small folds and wrinkles, while the
"female" egg is entirely smooth and
well rounded off at both ends.

How TO HAVE A LOVING WIFE.-A corr
respondent sends the following to the
chronological Journal:
If you would have q loving wife, be rs
gentle in your words after as before mar
riage; treat her quite rs tenderly when
matron as q miss; don't make her
maid of all work and ask her why she
looks less tidy and neat than when "you
first knew her." don't buy cheap, tough
beef, and scold her because it does not
come on the table ''porter house, don't
grumble about squalling babies, if you
can't keep up "nurssry, and remem-
ber that ''baby" may take after papa in
his disposition; don't smoke and chew
tobacco, thus shatter your nerves, and
spoil your temper and make your breath
nuisance, and then complain that your
wife declines to kiss you; 60 home joy
ous and cheerful to your wife and tell
her the good news you have heard, and
not silently put on your hat and go ont
to the Club" or "lodge," and let her
afterwards learn that you spent the even
iIs at tue opera or al fancy ball with
Mrs. Dash. Love your wife, be patient;
remember that yon are not perfect, but
try to be; let whiskey, tobacco and vul-
gar company alone; spend your evenings
with your wife, and live decent Christ
ian life, and your wife will be loving and
true-if You did not marry q thought
less beauty, without sense or WORTH; if
you did. who is to blame if you suffer
the consequences?
The following speech is attributed to
member of the Legislature of Pennsyl-

The PROTESTANT Cow.-Paddy Muir
ply and his wife Bridget, after many
years of hard labor in ditching and
washing, had accumulated suficiency
to purchase O COW, (of course they had
pigs,) which they did at the first oppor-
tunity. AS it was bought of Protestant
neighbor, Pat stopped on his way home
at the house of the priest, to procure q
bottle of holy water with which to exor-
else the false faith out of her.
'Isn't she foine creature?" asked Pat
Of the admiring Bridget. "Just hold
her till fix the she'd"
To save the precious fluid from harm,
he took it into the house and set it up in
q cupboard until he had fixed things
Then he returned and brought the bottle
back, and while Bridget was holding the
rope, proceeded to pour it upon her
back.
But poor Pat had made slight mis-
take. Standing within the Same closet
was bottle of dquqfortis, that had been
procured for different purpose, and, as
it dropped upon the back of the poor
COW. and the hair began to smoke and
the flesh to burn, she exhibited decided
appearances of restlessness.
s'Pour on more, Paddy" shouted
Bridget, as she tugged smartly Mt the
rope.
''I'll give her enough now," quoth
Pat. and he emptied the bottle.
Up went the heels of the COW, down
went her head, over went Bridget and IL
half dozen of the "childers," and away
dashed the infuriated bovine down the
street, to the terror of all mothers and
the delight of the dogs.
Poor Pat stood for moment, breath
less with astonishment, and then clap
ping his hands upon his hips, looked
sorrowfully after the retreating COW and
exclaimed:
''Be jabbers, Bridget, but isn't the
Protestant strong in her-the baste?"
