An Artificial Mother.

Mr.. Il. B. Rogers, the famous poultry
raiser at Wethersfeld, has "seDsed the
precise thing" and has invented what
he calls an artificial mother" for the
rearing of young chickens. He esti-
mates that about so per cent. of chick
ems hatched are lost by suffering from
cold, by being stepped on by their
mother, by cats and other animals, and
in various other ways. He also finds
that chickens to be profitable should be
Matched in the winter. He has hatched
three broods in nine weeks with one hen
that is, he takes away the chickens as
soon as Matched and places fresh eggs
under the hen, and in this way keeps
her busy propagating chickens. Mr..
Rogers next move was to get some in
vention that would take care of the
chickens when Matched, and he has con-
structed what he calls an "artificial
mother" This is box with Two COM
partments, and about three feet by two
and half feet wide. In the rear is q lid
covered with wool, which shuts within
nine inches of the bottom (; this is cut
off from the front part by strip that
can be raised on hinges. The front is
protected by lattice work, giving plenty
of air and light, and on the outside are
tin troughs, in which gravel, food and
water are placed. The chickens can
easily get their bills into these, and when
they have got their fill they can run under
the wool-covered lid, which is SO soft and
comfortable that they imagine they are
under the old hen'swings. Mr.. Rodgers
had in one of these boxes yesterday
brood of twenty one chickens, sixteen
of which were Matched last Thursday,
and five on Sunday. They were all as
lively as crickets, and seemed perfectly
at ease. He took them to the Spring
field poultry show on the noon train,
where they will undoubtedly attract
good deal of attention. Mr.. Rogers
deals exclusively in light Brahmas, and
thinks they are the best layers, as we'll
as the most profitable fowls for the table.

Man i'm the Raw.

A maiden lady writes Let us take q
bird's-eye view of the men as we now
find them--men with their "noble
passions" prominent qualifica-
tions. What is their lover Egotism.
Their heroism2 British dare .develism.
Their cleverness Imaginary. Their
VOWS of love9 Perjury. Their faith
and fidelity2 A broken reed. And
where they are good-natured you may
be sure it is from stupidity. They are
saving when they are to settle household
accounts. Generous toward girls
young, inexperienced chits. Severe
judges of morals-toward their wives.
Full of devotion-to pretty house,
nurse, and waiter girls. They tendery
Gale for their horses, dogs, ETC., and are
amiable everywhere bat at home. The
married man can be classified as:
Henpecked,
Sour and glummy,
Rakes,
Tyrants,
Everyday people, thirteen to the
dozen,
Conceited jackanapes,
Simpletons, and
Paul Prys.
Men are like scarecrows--they are
found on forbidden grounds. They are
like bees, the hum around and surround
the most ravishing flowers, taste their
sweets and fly away. Men are like
swallows, they often seek the dirtiest
corner to build their nests. They are
like California gold, sought after in
places where they are not found, and
found where nobody would suspect
them to be. Like organs, their tender
est tones are nothing but wind. Like
cigars. more smoke than fire. 1t would
be easy to continue, but L desist, in the
hope that / have said enough to warn
my inexperienced sisters. Beware of
them, or, rather initiate one who knows,
and make them beware of You.

Why President Buchanan Remained a
Bachelor.

In an elegant mansion near the Airing
ton hotel, in this city, reside two ladies
of the olden aristocracy-Mrs. Freeman
and her sister, Miss Coleman. About
the latter lady little romance clings
which makes her interesting. She was
the second and the affianced bride of the
late President Buchanan, his first love
having died Ia her youth, and until he
met Miss Coleman he was almost a
recluse from ladies' society. He was
engaged to her when sent abroad as
American Minister to the Court of st.
James in London. At that time Miss
Coleman resided in New York. He re-
turned to this country on visit, and on
the evening he arrived Miss Coleman
was giving grand entertainment. He
was fatigued, and instead of dressing
and paying his respects to her immedi-
ately. retired to his room, and early next
morning called to see her. She had
taken offense at his not calling the even
ing before and refused to see him, and
they never met again. What regrets
were felt the world has never known.
but many an angry impulse has wrecked
the happiness of men and women beyond
reparation.- Washington Cor. Chicago

Crime i'm New York.

During the five years ending Decem-
Der, 1875, says the New York Times,
there were 281 homicides committed in
the city of New York. Some of them
were premeditated, many of them were
unprovoked, and a large majority were
utterly without palliation. Neverthe.
less, out of all this appalling number OF
man-killers the perpetrators who suffered
death were only seven. Only twentys
four were sent to prison for life. And
reviewing this dreadful lisi, we discover
that more than one-fourth of the Grim
inals were never brought to trial at all.
Some of them escaped, and were never
followed up and arrested. A few have
ended their own worthless lives after
they have committed crime, and more
evade detection. These are in hiding
to this day. Possibly some of them,
variously disguised, return to their old
haunts, and live securely in the belief
that "the thing has blown over"

icaIism and FREQ themselves, they suc-

colored Democrats commit a crime

deavored to arrest o man who had
just fred off pistol. Pistols were
going off ovcry moment, and amid
the firing Policeman Green fell shot
through tho abdomen, and Mr.. J. NJ.
Buckner, white, was shot through the
abdomen. By this timo the police<
men were reinforced by squads from
the upper and lower Guardhouses
and succeeded in separating tho whites
from the blacks.
The wounded mon were taken 70
the upper Stationhouse by detail,
and the fighting Immediately began
again. The whites by this time num-
bered only about fifteen mon, large
numbers of rhem having been knocked
senseless with clubs and pailings, with
which tho mob were armed. After
desultory fight of about fifteen min
utes longer the negroes had complete
mastery Of the field. Policeman Green
was tho only colored man to up that
time who was hurt, and he was shot
1T is believed by one oftho negro mob,
who attempted to fire at q white man
he was protecting. Several negroes
had been knocked down, and five Or
six received bad gashes over the head,
but moro were seriously hurt. The
negroes then stationed themselves in
crowds of forty and fifty at each
corner along King street, extending
from Calhoun street to the Uppor
Guardhouse, in front of which stood
q huge and infuriated mob cursing and
threatening to break in and take out
the white mon who had heen placed
thoro for protection. Whito men on
the street were scarce, and as soon as
ono turned corner or came along on
his way homo, tho crowd in his i'm
mediate vicinity would give yell and
90 for him with brickbats, stones and
pistol shots. Tho crowds at the corn-
ers above and below thom, hearing
tho pistol shots, would close up, and
in few moments the unfortunate was
surrounded by u pack of over two
hundred negroes, who did everything
but kill him. They would knock him
down with brckbats, and rs soon as
he would get up to run they would
fire pistol shots at him and over his
head, while the crowd ahead would
rcarest him and give him another
beating.
1t is impossible for us to give the
full details Of tho riot from the News
and Courier. After tho riot mcn lay
senscless in puddles Of their own blood
and the sight Of whto faco on King
street was q signal for an attack
Green and Buckncr have since died.
The whites are now organized, armed
and equipped, and fully prepared to
meet the ISSUE should it again occur,
and make short work Of these blood
thirsty demons in human shape. Both
parties remained under arms on Thurs
day, and few shots were exchanged
and one colorcd man slightly wounds
cd. Quiet has been restored, but the
outbreak is liable to occur again ut
any time, in which event tho negroes
who cried so Justify for bloud, will
evidently get full satisfaction.
