the time he courted his wife, who was the
daughter Of g clergyman. His wife's father
opposed the match, and when it was consum-
maled he considered that his daughter had
married beneath her. Abigail Adams was
fully tbs equal Of s1ohn in ability. Her let

about politics as did her husband, and l
doubt not she advised him as to many
OF his state papers Her pictures represent
her as very pretty young woman, and
John Adams loved her dearly. He addressed
ber in his letters, even after his marriage, as
my dearest friend, and she, in signing her
letters 70 him, used the name ~Portia,r after
the custom Of the times, when every writer
had his Latin nom de plume. Abigail Adams
was the first lady of the White House. She
came TO it when il was still unfinished, and
she dried her clothes in the East Room. 1t
was to her that John Quincy owed much Of
his ability, and when she died he paid one OF
the prettiest tributes to her that son ever paid
TO mother. At this tims-it was in lSlS-John

The Adams family has been one Of the

through hard work, temperance and economy

and were plain farmers. The first Of these
Adams farmers left an estate Of about $500.
His descendants held TO the land which he
had settled, and this land forms part Of the
Adams estates to-day. John Adams father

In the Supreme Court yesterday, Chun
Hook, the notorious burglar, was ar
raigned on charge of housebreaklng.
1t will be remembered that about an
hour previous to his capture by Othcer
Kauhane, he had entered the store OF
Chez Lung, on Queen street, and on his
person were found some tins of salmon
and other things he had obtained out OF
the store. When asked by the Court
what he had to say to the charge, he
stated that he did not think he was do
ing wrong. After his escape from prison
he felt very hungry, and only broke into
the store for the purpose of getting some
salmon to eat. His Honor, after due
elaboration, sentenced him to one years
Imprisonment at hard labor, to COM
mence at the expiration OF his former
sentences.

Tricks of Unprincipled POultrymen.

It is said that there are upward of $4,000
poultry keepers in the United Kingdom and
their annual exhibitions are very numerous.
So great is the desire of obtaining prizes at
these and so great the advantage in the sale
of their fowls after getting them, that I'M
principled poultrymen resort to many de-
captions to secure prizes. They stain the
legs with desirable colors, paint parts of the
body feathers in different spots to make
more perfect show of plumage,. pull some
from tufts on the head and sickles from the
tail, glueing in others of a more fashionable
kind to take their place; cutting combs an
wattles, especially Of gameoocks, in ORDER to
give the head fine snake'like appearance.
