A Singular Fowl.

Recently, while two men were hunt
ing in Allegan county, Michigan, they
came to place Is miles north of Allie
gan, in big pine forest, several miles
from any house, and met with fowl
tracks, which from their size they sup
posed to be wild turkey tracks. Fol
lowing them little way they sighted
qneer-looking black fowl, and Symonds
blazed away, killing it. 1t proved to
be big Poland hen, but so marked as
to lead to the belief that it was of wild
parents. It was black, with the excep.
ton of a ruff mottled somewhat like q
partridge, the edge tinged with red.
On the crown of the top-knot, which
was unusually large, was white clump
of feathers something like rose. The
wings were flecked slightly; the tall
feathers spread broad like those of a
turkey, instead of like those OF hen.
it was very wild, and the food found in
its crop was only such as could be
picked mp in the woods. Unfortunate
~ the bird was so torn by the shot
that no effort was made to prepare its
skin.

so treated as to furnish valuable arti-
Gle Of food, capable of preservation for
long time. For this purpose the pota-
toes are to he washed clean, steamed,
peeled while still hot, and finally pres 3
ed through fine sieve. The potatoes
thus compressed are to be land, while
still hot, upon gratings, aud dried US
quickly as possible, say in ten or twelve
hours, in order to avoid any souring or
putrefaction; this being generally the
result of drying too slowly, or with an
insufficient heat. The potatoes dried in
this way are Of an excellent flavor, and
can be packed and kept for years in u
dry place, aud are serviceable for pro-
visioning ships, armies in the field, sc.
About one thousand pounds of fresh
potatoes will make one hundred pounds
Of the dry article, which, when properly
prepared, will have precisely the same
flavor and Appearance of freshly boiled
potatoes.

Rich Deposit Of Mineral Paint Discoy.
cred.

Our attention (says the Indiana Dem
ocrat) has been called to the wonderful
productions of sienna, or mineral paint,
found in large quantities ON the farm Of
John Cessna, in Banks Township, this
county. This paint oozes from q bank
Of rocks on Stralght's Run, and is de-
posted in large quantities in q dam.
It has been pronounced by competent
Judges superior article, really better
than the sienna imported from France
and Italy, for the reason that it is en-
tirely without grit. According to the
definitions, il is a sillicate of iron, and
is also called terra sienna. It is esti-
mated that the supply is inexhaustible,
hundreds of thousands of tons being
exposed, and this is increased every
day by the quantities which flow from
the rocks.
A company has been organized, and
extensive works are being erected to
prepare the sienna for market. Several
