Cutoff practically made at FIVE minutes
past two O'clock to day, where GROSS levee
stood. Immense volume Of current going
through. JOHN ARMSTRONG.
The effect will be to practically put An
end to what prosperity Vicksburg now has
in two years. The wharf boat and elevator
will be below where the compress is. The
coal fleet and saw mills will have calm
lake to do business on. The water from
the hills will always keep an opening for
RATS and barges. The tall ar the cutoff is
two and one half feet. but at D alta three and
seven-tenths feet. There is . probability
of cave from Thompson's Point to Delta;
none for q. short distance below Duck
port. A new levee has been made at the
Nebraska plantation, and Madison parish
will probably desire one at Grants canal.
About the only thing tor yisksburx to do
is to 60 to work and build up some manu-
features and practice the mechanic. arts.

A Large Poultry Yard.

The following account of the largest
poultry yard in New York State is given
It is at Greene, Chenango county, and is
Kept by Mr.. A. B. Robson. He has
six thousand ducks, four thousand tur-
keys and twelve hundred hens. They
consume daily sixty bushels Of corn,
two barrels of meal, two barrels Of pota-
toes, and a quantity of charcoal. The
meal, potatoes and charcoal are boiled
together and form a pudding, which is
fed warm. 81 employstwo mentoc ookthe
feed and feed them. He has twelve
buildings for his fowls, from n hun
dred to two hundred feet long, fourteen
feet wide and seven feet under the caves,
with a door in each end of them. Mr..
Robson bought most Of his ducks in
the West, and had them shipped in
crates-three dozen in a crate. He also
has an egg house, t~hirty-fve by fifty
feet, and four stories high. The outside
is eighteen inches thick. and built of
cut stone, laid in mortar, boarded up on
the inside and filed in between the out
side and inside wall with sawdust, it
taking three Thousand bushels. MI.
Robson claims hat he can keep eggs
any length of time in this building. He
also keeps the ponltry that he is now
dressing until next May or June, which
he sells for eighteen to twenty-five
cents per pound, and it caDuat be told
from fresh dressed poultry. He gets
ten cents per pound for turkeys feathers,
twelve for hens and si1ty.fve for ducks.
He says there is money in poultry, and
he thinks he can make out of his six
Thousand ducks enough to pay for his
egg house, which cost $1,000. He in
tends to keep great many more next
season, and has agents out all over the
country buying up poultry and eggs.

How He Felt.

"I've got it to go through and I might
list as we'll brace up agin it as not" said
Harry Johnson, a murderer, on the
night before he was hanged in Paris, ILL.,,
"but it's an awful thing-awful. You
nor no one else can have any idee Nv it.
To tit here as I'm sittin' tonight, look
in out through these bars, KNOWN that
to-morrer will bring the end NV it all to
me, is kinder benumbin' to me. I can't
jist realize how it is. It seems to me all
the time I WIZ going to try some exper-
yment to. morrer. Tonight I am breath
in, that's wot I call bein' to-morrer,
while the world is still agoin' on around
me, the air free 3 ever, the people
laughin' and joyous g ever, the whole
course Of natur' agoin' on, I'm to stop,
like q machine !; when my weight gifts to
the end O the rope III stop like a rum
down clock. It seems kinder strange to
me, an I feel like I'd gone over it so
long in my mind that I'd orter know all
about it."
