Death Of a Famous Rooster.

Tho Hartford Post mentions the death OF fa-
nous rooster. The poultry fanciers in this city
will be grieved to learn Of this fact: Mr.. Philan-
dor Williams, of Taunton, who is well known by
Connecticut "hen men," had the misfortune last
week to lose by death his celebrated light Brahma
rooster "Colossus." The bird weighed when dead,
in full plumage, and just us he was when alive,
sixteen and quarter pounds. 1t is averred that
the rooster died Of apoplexy. and the sum OF $50
will not make good his loss. Mr.. Frederick Wrasg,
poultry manager for Rt Hon Lady Gwvdyer, OF
lpswick, England one If the most celebrated
poultry exhibitors in Europe, has brother of the
deceased "Colossus," which, Mr. Wragg states in
u letter just received by Mr.. Williams, weighs six
teen pounds. and is beyond doubt the biggest
rooster in England. The bird whose death we
thus record was destined for shipment to England,
with other choice poultry from Mr.. Williams col.
lection, aud would have been exhibited at New
Haven next month, and at several other famous
shows about to occur
