4 Laying Rooster.

There is very curious phenome
non taking place with Mr.. George
Murphy's rooster, which he lately
traded for with country friend ol
his, that is incXplicabIe: n yeritably
rooster laying eggz. This sounds
very queer, but Mr.. Murphy says il
is fact, or else there is some un
foreseen iugglcry that he can not
understand. The rooster goes on
the nest every day. and after the
functions of the hen have been per
formed he comes off, utters deris-
i've cnckle to the rest the fowls.
and goes on about his business as
though nothing had happened
This peculiar fowl has been watched
closely by George, and he has seen
him 90 on the nest daily, come off
caekling and there was nm egg. No
hen was ever seen about the nest and
the rooster is monarch of that baili-
wick-or nest. This fowl has arous-
ed the admiration of our soul, and
is an example worthy of the emula-
tion of the husbandman. He has
seen the tolls and struggles OF the
oyerworked and greatly oppressed
hens, and has come to their rescue
and helps them to supply the de-
mand now seriously felt in CONNER
cial circlcs-and at the boarding
houses. He cares nothing for a
protection tariff, a tprih for revenue
Mr. George Murphy's reputation
for truth and vcracity is unqucstion-
ed and he wishes us to announce
that fany one doubts this state
mcnt he can come and see the per-
formanco with his own eyes. Chap
man { Kan. Star.
