COOley'S Rooster.

Shakespeare, you will remember,
says that "The morning cock crew
loud" do not know that the di-
vine bard intended this remark to re-
fer especially to Cooley's rooster, but
t fits him with singular exactness. ]
do not know what the breed was
black Spanish, i think-but he was the
most animated, earnest, whole-souled
and vehement rooster any where
around. He turned out earlier and
csowed louder than any other rooster
in the State of Delaware. He could
crow oftener in minute-he could
hold on the last note longer and be-
gin again quicker than any known
barn yard fowl and he would often
wake up in the night and emit half
a dozen vociferous screeches in order
to make sure that he had not lost his
voice since sunset. When he began
to run up the scale in the morning,
he soon had every other rooster with
in ten miles hard at work, and | used
to lie abed listening to the vocal con-
test, aud observing how Cooley's bird
always got more noise out of his
larnyx than any four of his compel
itors. shouldn't have minded it if it
had been a little farther off, and slept
later but when l live alongside of a
rooster that is an early riser and has
q voice that is a cross between a fog
whistle and steam coffee mill, the
matter becomes serious. It was use
less to complain to Cooley about the
chicken. lie owed me a grudge for
banging his balloon to slithers. So,
in self-defence, l procured about a
dozen small torpedoes and pasted
them carefully over with -four. Then
l strewed them on a bed in my gar
den wherever the bird was wont to
disport himself in the early morning.
He crowed good while that morning
before | came down, but toward
breakfast time / noticed that his
voice seemed somewhat softcned, and
bis vocal exercises less frequent.
When | went out found him stand
ing upon one leg, looking abjectly
miserable, moving his head from
right to left as if he had something
in his mind and l observed that the
torpedoes had disappeared. moved
toward him with the intention of jam
ming him against something, when
he suddenly attempted to jump over
the fence. He fell short and struck
the post. There was IN explosion,
and the rooster-oh where was he I?
A couple Of drumsticks were found
by somebody out in the turnpike, and
a stray gizzard was picked up in the
graveyard, while few bloody feath-
ers were scattered over Cooley's as
paragus bed and that was all that
was ever known about it. When this
meets Cooley's eye, he will under
stand why that rooster disappeared,
and he had betterA take tile news
calmly. No Spanish rooster shall in
terfere with my rights as an Ameri-
can citizen.-MAx ADELEH.

the fortunes of the State for gcncr-

problem Of securing life, libertys

posed of two dissimilar races, is one
which elsewhere and in other times,
has been unsuccessful, and was By
cur fathers, deemed impossible. Yet
the experience of tie last tonr

guided by prudence and courage,
tempered with forhearance, we can
guide the experiment TO Il success
