This Remarkable'. package of feathers has bin for , ages food for phnosophlek,:,as the Simply curious mind. They belong tew the fethered sekt denominated troultry, and are the husbanz wives. In d t ab. it is konsidered a disgrace to speak sreppeetfat — of — a — Tooster. - - Brigham Young's coat ov arins _is a rooster, in full blast, crowing. till he is ~bent over double backward. \ The flesh of. the rooster is very simi lar tew the flesh of the hen ; it is hard . ,to,distingitish the .differencgespecially — in your - soup. Roosters are' the ists • among the doinestik Kurds ; they wear the.belt, and having no shoulder -strike from the heel. Roosters, according toprofane history, if nil ducashun. remembers me .right, were fornierly.a iii u, who came suit ii,enly upon one of the heathen gods, at a time, when-he -Avant prepared to see company, and waz, for that offence, re - built over into - the lust - rooster., rind was forever afterwards destined to Crow, as a kind ov warning. This change from a man akoutits for their fighting abili ties, and for their politeness toithe hens. There is nothing in a man that a wo man admires more than his reddyness and ability -to ,smash another felloW, and itzliEs so with a hen. - When a _rooster getsthe hens all march oph with the , other :rooster, if he ain't half so big or hand Some. • Itiz,pinelk that wins a hen or a we- maw. - --There ..grate _variety.of pedigree amung th•.! rooster face, but for stiddy ~ biziness'give me the old fashn domln ' ique rooster, short legged ; and when : they -alwus strut; ,aud their buzzums stick out like an alderman's abdominal cupboard.

It iz a luxury tew watch their•. daintyuess, tew see them lay each fetlf•l ex with their Lily, in its place and pre side over themselves with as-much del icacy az a belle gefpre a mirror. But the consummation iz tow see the wife a mother, leading out six - little chicks a bugging ; six little chicks no bigger than bumble-bees. It seems to be necessary that there should be something outrageous in everything, tew show us where proprie ty begins. This iz melanehollily the . ease in the roostelatNir, for we have the shunghi rooster•, the greatest out • rage, in my opinyun, ever committed in the annals of poultry. Theze krittcrs are the caiiiels arming ' -fowls ; they mope about the barnyard, tipping over the hayracks and stepping on the young goslins, and every now and then they crow confusion. If en nybody should give me a shang hi rooster, I should halter him, 'and keep him in a box stall, and feed-him on cut feed,,and if ho would work kind in harness, all right ; if not, I Would butcher him the fust wet day that cum; and salt him down tew give tow the poor. But there ain't nobody a going tew give. me one ov this breed, n tif I know it; Ulm) iis a an on the earth mean enuff to do it. _t Boosters do but very ''ttle household work; they. won't lay enny eggs, nor try tew hatch enny, nor i see to the young pees; thig_satisfys me that there is stun truth in the mythologikal amount ov the rooster's fast origin. Yu kant git a rooster to pay enny at tentionlew a young one ; they spend all their tithe in crowing, strutting strutting, and occasionally tind a wortn, which: they make a remarkable . fuss over, calling up their wives from a dis tance, fipparently tew treat them, but i l jt st AM& - hens git there, the elegant /1 d elaborate cuss bends over - and gob b es up the morsel.

AFTER twenty years experience in the man 'ufacture of stoves, we became convinced, some six years since, that a vast amount of money was being expended by the people of this country, in buying cheap and worthless stoves,_:, large portion of which was wasted; and that true economy consisted in buying the best stoves, that could be made, notwithstanding the priC4 was higher. With this view we proceeded 'to construct the American Cooking Stove, and spared no pains or expense to make it the best and most perfect stove that could bo made. And we have experimented with it, and carefully watched its operation for the last six years, and when an improvement suggested Itself, we have at once adopted it, and we have several of these tmproveraents secured by letters patent. In this manner we do not hesitate to say, we have brought it to a higher state of perfection, than has heretofore been attained in cooking stoves. The recent improvements in this stove has added largely to its convenience and effective ness. In all the varieties of stoves we manu facture, we study usefulness, durability, conve nience and economy in operation, rather than cheapness in price, and in so doing we are satis fied we study the interest of those purchasing our stoves.
