'.Himniiu. mi i!T-w-mii ... Cjucer I'rtnKs or Animal and We find iu our exchanges very often accounts of strange freaks of animals ami fowls. Those given below, which comes to us well authenticated, will be read with interest. The first is told by the Dayton, Ohio, .Journal; . An elderly hen, which had presided in solitary dignity lor the past season in the yard of Dr. Geiger, on Jefferson street, determined to enter upon the condition of "hatching." She prepared a comfortable nest in an out-of ihciway recess, although there were no eggs upon which to try her maternal patience. Finally a member of the family, taking pity on the old "cluck," placed a couple of eggs in her i.ebf, and with this scant 6tock in trude she pro ceeded to "set." The old hen scorned the conventional rules in such cases, leav ing the nest half a dozen times a day, and she was especially attentive to the least movement about the kitchen which prom iscd food, and never faihd to be around when the contents of the table-spread were shaken out in her vicinity. Indeed, so frequently did the subject of our brief tketcli leave her nest, and remain so long away that a canine matron, with a-trio of kittens, concluded that she would oc cupy the cozy depository, and she accord ingly toted her progeny to the nest. The next morning, bright and early, Mrs. Hen found that she was not alone iu her glory. 'The kittens were well enough, but she fought tabby away, and took charge of her family ; and tho kittens seemed pleased with the change. When her food was brought to her she took especial pains to call her foster children, and devoting to thern all the little attentions which an old "cluck" devotes to her progeny, she tried to induce them to eat. Tabby watches her opportunity, and when "old Speckle" goes away in search of food, or to take a promenade through the yard, she acts the part of commissary to her kittens; and she quickly retires from the field the moment "old Speckle" makes her.yppear auce. Ami this strange condition of af fairs has been kept up for several days, the old hen remaining "cock of the walk," fighting tabby away from her nest, refus ing to be interfered with, ami taking good care of the kittens, and her pair of eggs which aro probably further trom matuiity than when put iu the nest. The kittens seem to think it fine sport; how they will view it when they get their eyes opwn re mains to be seen. This is from the liloomsburg, Pa , lie publico n : A cat belonging to Mr. Moore Cieveling had a litter of kittens, one of which died. The disconsolate cat went out into a neighboring field where she found a young rabbit, and compelled it to accompany her home. She adopted the rabbit in lieu of her lost kitten, and is now rearing it with the rest of her family, be ing apparently much attached to it. The Lancaster, l'a., Leuihr is respon sible for the following: Mrs. Susau Tierce, of Kennelt township, is the owner of a very ollicious and important young turkey, which wa3 hatched during the past ppring. Duiing this mouth it has formed the ac quaintance of a brood of young guineas, and by some art best known to his tur keyship, he has pucceeded in winning them entirely from their mother, and now has entire control of them, by day and by night. The following is a vagabond item, for tin truth of which we cannot vouch : Out west they tell a story of a dog that was greatly interested in music. He attended a singing school, and was subsequently found in the back yard with a music book in front of hiui, beating time with h'i3 tail on a tin pan, and howling "Old Hundred." A JIL'LK STORV, There is a man out in Oregon who lias i mule. A few days ago lie was dtiurm the animal across the prairie, when he MuMenly Mopped. The man left the wa pn and attempted to induce the male lo move or;, but without succeeds. He beat it, he coaxed it, he threatened ii, and fie cursed it, but it icfused to budge. He tied fire-crackers to its tail and exploded them, but the mule merely turned his head in a languid sort of ivay, examined the firework?, and calmly winked at the man. Then the mini thought perhaps the mule had forgotten something and wanted to go back, eo he tried to turn him around ; but the mulo expressed a firm determina tion not to go home. The man became desperate, and though: he would build a fire under the mule, but as fast as he woukl kindle it, the mule, standing firm on three legs, reached over his other leg and kicked out the flames. Then he tore his hair and swore the man did and Le rushed to the wagon and got twelve pounds of gunpowder, and he dug a hole under the mule and built a mine. Then lie covered up the charge and laid a slow match, and- stood vlY a little piece while he ht it. There was a rumble, a roar, and then a teniiic explosion ; and amid the cloud of dust cud upheaved rocks, the mulo was observed to iiing its hind L.s in tho air and to support itself upon its fore feet in that position until the blast was over, when it quickly assumed its old latitude, and a gentle smile passed over its features as it perceived its master lying down, groaning and cursing the day on which he was bom. It was of no use. The man went home and brought two yoke of oxen. He hitched them to tho mule and ihey pulled ; but the mule dug its hoofs into the prairie and there it stood 3 firm as Cassabianca on tho burning deck. Then tho man, in a furious rage weut and got three moveable steam en gines and chained them to the mule. Threo half-inch cables weie snapped asunder, and the mule still maintained his defiant attitude. It is there yet, and tho man has ma!e a contract with a builder to go out there and erect a mill over tho mule, because he regards him now as ono of the permanent fixtures of the place, and he thinks he can apply the power for the mill by arranging to have the mule's tail twisted right hard every few minutes with machinery.

Is a Pkkihcamest. Not a great while 6ince, a couple, male and female, appeared before one of our local magistrates and de sired to be united in marriage. They were considerably past the barriers of youth, and (heir grave faces and Bolemn mein denoted a full appreciation of the step they were about to take. The lady in particular appeared finite uneasy, and from time to time received whimpered in junctions from her attendant to be calm. Once-or twice she looked as if she meant to ?pcak to the magistrate, which, the man perceiving, hastily interposed to pre vent. Nevertheless?, his watchfulness at last proved unavailing, and the lady, in sheer desperation, asked "if all her pro perly would belong to her husband as eoon as they were married." "That depends upon circumstances," was the reply. "Does it, now," exclaimed the lady, "well, then, if that's tha case I want one." "You want what !" irepjired the per plexed oUicia!. "A circumstance," said the lady ; "can't you put one in lite ceremony ?' The Magistrate ralher thought he couldn't. A German whom we will call Hans, lately visited IJahimore, where he remained over night. Upon leaving the hotel litre he "put L-p," he asked for his valise, which the landlord could not find, upon which our Teutonic friend became excited and highly exasperated and addressed the landlord as follows : "It's dam seldom ware dat carpet sack got shtole to; I'd just as lief tint fife toliars as lose dat carpet sack.
