A WESTERN juvenile, who bears the
burden of thirteen long summers on his
shoulders with most refreshing comic
dence, was served with . moderate allow
ance of dessert, one day, at the dinner
table; but the quantity was decidedly
below his notions of Justice or reason, as
he evinced with . contemptuous curl of
the lip, and the dry observation to his
maternal: did you put this here for
Tire dies? ?" 1t is unnecessary to add that
he was supplied with another install
ment, as he deserved to be.

HEzE is another proof that dogs have
the power Of reasoning: A sagacious
canine at Rumney, n. H., lately pursued
a woodchuck, which continually foiled
him by running through drain When
he had played that trick two or three
times, the dog gave him a rest in the
drain, and trotted over to neighbor's
and brought another dog, frequent
sharer in his youthful sports. Station
ing his companion at one end of the
drain, he entered the other and stirred
up Mr.. woodchuck, who started again
for daylight, only to be grabbed by the
faithful sentinel. II this isn't reason,
what is it?

THE Greeley Tribune AYERS that the
Rocky Mountain turkey never sings I'M
til dark, and even then it fails to do it
self justice unless the sky is cloudy. 1t
frequents the deepest and most inacces-
sible canons of the mountains, and it can
only be trapped during the early spring
and autumn months. A piece of bright
tin tied to long pole will attract scores
Of these turkeys. Mr.. Dunbar, Den
yer naturalist, says that it is species OF
the albiaon-a bird that is found among
the Andes in South America It is GER
tainly a strange bird, and at times its
singing is really beautiful.

A DANRrRY young man who was once
clerk lately went on farm to work.
The first night in his new position he
was detailed to remove a calf from the
apartment Of its parent to another shed,
and while engaged, as thousands have.
been before him, in showing the contra
~ beast along, the mother reached I'M
der the tails of his coat with her horns,
and suddenly lifted him up against the
roof of the building with a force that
threatened to shatter every bone in his
body. The first thing be did on return
ing to earth was to rub himself the
next thing was to throw up his place.
He said he didn't doubt that agriculture
was a noble pursuit, and that the farm
er needed an assistant in the discharge
Of the multifarious duties, but he didn't
believe the Creator designed him for
making skylights in cow-sheds.-Dan-
