"Wood has some fine chickens of which he takes great care at his place. They are "Wyandottes, and are great layers. One has laid 251 eggs in a year. A striking pecu liarity of these hens is that they nev er set. Anyone who has ever tried to "break" a setting hen when the hen had it bad and was bonud to set, will readily see the superiority of the breed. Capt. "Wood has devoted con siderable time and expense to these hens and now has abundant reward. THE HAN "WHO DDXS UIHSELF. You've probably met sometime, somewhere the man who duns him self.

He lays for his creditor and makc3 life burdensome to him. You see him coming and dodge him. No such luck. He halts von, "Say, I'm owing you a little bill, haven't forgotten it, I'll hand it to you when I'm passing." In vain you tell him it is "all right." He's just got his augur in. He gets in front of you and if you try to slip by him he gets in front of you again and tells you about the state of his bow els and how his liver is, and what kind of a night he ha3 spent, and wants to make a speech on the Chi nese question and wants to know if you ever had the fever and ague, and knows a sure cure for a sour stomach, and reminds you between while3 of that little bill he owe3 yon, and has no more idea of the value of time than an amorous torn cat. The only refuge is to steer two of them together and start them swap ping experience. Then they'll let go of j'ou and you are saved till one of the genus runs yon down somewhorc else. PERSONAL. S. K.

O. P. Henry. The P.nsH'b Salmon Market. The London Grocer of February Gth says: Another week has elapsed without further additions to our sup ply of salmon, which at the present moment is probably less than one-half of what was held in the United Kingdom at the same period of last year. The demand, meantime, is most satisfactory; in fact, the every day removals of salmon from our warehouses for distributive require ments are most animated, and we think we are correct iu stating that not much above'a month's supply is held in this market. The fleet of vessels in the salmon trade the past season being so greatly reduced in numbers, it is hard to realize the fact that but a few more cargoes have to arrive, after which the pos ition will the better be understood. We hear of a parcel of several thou sand cases coming round from Lon don to Liverpool, which at once puts an end to all doubts or cavilling as to the strength or weakness of this market, and the comparative light snpphes here. What an Idea! Washington, March 2. A resident of Washington territory who is here says that the action of the citizens of Seattle iu sending to Washington Kev. L. A. Banks, to ask tho presi dent to retain federal troops at Seat tle, lest a fresh outbreak occurs, is not wholly prompted by a desire for public safety aud security. Ho thinks it is a dodge of merchants to have quartered iu the town a garrison that will make business good. The troops, he says, would furnish a market for agricultural products and forage, and the soldiers would make a certain kind of trade brisk. This is prob ably a sinister view of the case, but the informant says it is an old ruse that has been successfully adopted in more than ono town of the north west, to have troops stationed at tho place, on the ground of fear of an In dian outbreak, while the real reason was to help the business in that lo cality.

A Presidential Jlessasc Regarding the Rock Springs Affair. Washisgton, March 2. Tho president sent the following message to congress to-day: To the Senate and 1 1 ouse of Representa tives: It is made the constitutional daty of the president to recommend to the consideration of congress from time to time such measures as ho shall judge nec essary and expedient. In no matters can tho necessity of this bo moro evident than when the good faith of tho United States under tho solemn obligation of treaties with foreign powers is concerned. The question of tho treatment of tho subjects of China sojourning within tho jurisdiction of tho United States presents such a matter for the urgent and earnest consideration of the executive and con gress. In my first annnal message upon the assembling of the present congress 1 adverted to this question (the president here quotes the passige from his message upon. the Chinese question and contin ues,) " At the time I wrote this, the shock ing occurrences at Rock Springs in Wyo ming territory were fresh in the minds of all, and have been recently presented anow to the attention of this government by the Chinese minister in a note which, while not unnaturally exhibiting some misconception of our general system of administration in the territories while they as yet are not in the exercise of tho fall measuro of that sovereign self-government pertaining to the states of the Union, presents in truthful terms tho main features of tho cruel outrage there perpetrated upon inoffensive subjects of China. In tho investigation of the Rock Springs outbreak and the ascertainment of facts on which the Chinese minister's statements rest, the Chinese representa tives were aided by agents of the United States, und the reports submitted, hav iug been thus framed, and recounting facts within tho knowledge of tho wit nesses on both sides; possess an import ant truthfulness which could not fail to givo them the impressiveness of facts which so far are not controverted or affect ed by any exculpatory or mitigating tes timony, and show tho murder of a num ber of Chinese subjects in September last at Rock Springs, tho wounding of many others, and tho spoliation of tho proper ty of all when the unhappy survivors had beeu driven from their habitatons. There is no allegation that the victims by any lawless or disorderly act on their part, contributed to bring about the col lision. On tho contrary, it appears that the law-abiding disposition of these peo nlc. who ware soioumera in our midst under the sanction of hospitablo and ex press treaty obligations, was mado the pretext for tho attack upon them. This outrage upon law and traaty engage ments was committed by a lawless mob. None of the aggressors, happily for tho national good fame, appear by the ro ports to have been citizens of the United States. Thev were aliens, engaged m that remote district as mining laborers, who became excited against the Chinese laborers, as it would seem, because of their refusal to join them in strikes to sscnro nigcer wages, uppression or Chinese subiects by thsir rivals in com petition for labor does not differ in vio- j c lence and illegality from that applied to ; other classes of native or alien laborers, I who are equally under the protection of I law aim equauy c-niuieu 10 enjoy ino thing that coukl be set, handle, benefits of assured public order. as spout and &u ipsjde of one of the t&ffitXti?m!aon cofree cr-tImJa come hither as all other strangers who J""e'g"er draws once or twice at a voluntarily resort to this land of free- breakfast, and the cup3 were of fine dom, of self-government and of laws, cloisonnee, with plain enameled peaceably to win their bread and to livo j linings, each no larger round than their lives, there can be no question that the circle of a tulip's petals could they would be entitled to the sama xneas- inclose.

The government of the United I Occident, who have been taught as States will exert all its power to devise J the first principle of tea making that measures for th6ir protection and to se-. the water must be boiling at the min carc to them tho same rights, privileges, ute it touches the leaves, and thatun impuuities and exemptions as may bo less atboiling point teamade with itis most favored nation, and to which they are entitled by tho treaty.

United States this government is bound to exert all its power to doviso measures ' for their protection bv securing to them j rioht to vhich. ennal'lv with anv and all . all other foreigners, they are entitled. Whether it is now incumbent upon tho United States to amend their general laws or devise new measures in this re- j gard, I do not consider-in the present! communication, but confine myself to j the particular point raised by the out- j rago and massacre at Rock Springs. The . note of the Chine3o minister and ths I documents which accompany it givo as its belief an unexatrcerated statement of the lamentable incident aud present tho imnressivelv recrretablo circumstances that the proceedings, in the name oc justice for the ascertainment of tho crime and fixing tho responsibility thero- for, wero a ghastly mockery of justice, So long as the Chinese minister, under his instructions, makes this the basis of an appeal to tho principles and convic tions of tnrtnlnnd. no ozcention can be taken; but when ho goes further and lUKiim us ma precedent iub hci.uii ui iuc Chinese government in past instances whero tho lives of American citizens and their property in China have been en dangered, and argues a reciprocal obli gation on tho part of tho United States to indemnify the Chineso subjects who suffered at Rock Springs, it became nec essary to meet nis argument and to de ny mo3t emphatically the conclusions he seeks to draw as to tlie existence of such liability and the right of the Chinese government to insist upon it. I draw the attention of congress to the latter part of the note of tue secretary of state of February 18, 188G, in reply to the Chinese minister's representations, and to invite special consideration of the co gent reasons by which bo reaches' the conclusion that whilst the United States government is under no obligation, whether by the express terms of tho treaty with China "or the principles of in ternational law, to indemnify those Chi neso subiects for losses caused by such means and under admitted circumstan ces, yet that in view of the palpable and discreditable failure of the authorities of Wyoming territory to bring to justice the guilty parties or to insure to tho sufferers an impariial forum in which to seek and obtain compensation for the losses whichthoso subjects have incurred J Ming further the entire absence of pxoTo- cation on the part of the victims, the executive may be induced to bring the matter to tho benevolent consideration of congress, in order that that body, in its high discretion, may direct tho bounty of tho government in aid of tho innocent and peaceful strangers whoso maltreat ment has brought discredit upon the country, with the distinct understanding that such action is in nowise to be held as a precedent, is wholly gratuitous, and is resorted to in a spirit of pure gener osity toward thoso who are otherwise helpless. Tho correspondence exchanged is herewith snbmitted for the informa tion of congress. Gboveh Cixvelvxd. Ex. Mansion, Washington March 1, 1SSG. The letter of tho secretary of state to the Chinese minister referred to in the president's messege is an exhaustive statement of the whole Chinese question, and its main points are fully covered in the message. CHANGING THEIR HINDS. Washington, Mar. 2. The people of Idaho seem to be very fickle in their desiro to have the Panhandle of that territory annexed to Washing ton. Now that the measure is about to be adopted, telegrams and letters are pouring in from the northern counties of Idaho which are the ones to be joined to Washington, asking that the matter be stayed until the people declare their wish in tho mat ter. The wholo agitation seems to be the outcome of the tricks of a few politicians. About five years ago a few agitators in the northern part of the territory proposed a plan for an nexation, and resolved to run a dele gate to congress on that issue. Tho Republican nominee, who was from the southern part of Idaho, stepped forward at this juncture and gave a pledge that he would vote for annexation it elected. On this promise, he received the unanimous support of northern Idaho and was elected. But his promises were liko seed that fell on stony places. At the last election tho Democrats were forced to adopt tho same policy of annexation to get their share of votes in northern Idaho. The Democratic delegate (Hailey) was olected; al though he was previously opposed to the division of the territory, he intro duced the bill to carry out the plauk in his party's platform, and had it passed by the house last week. Now the people all over the territory want further action suspended until they make up their minds whether they want annexation or not Tho mat ter will bo delayed in the senate nntil Idaho is heard from. Tea In Japan. The Japanese host never intruata the making of tea to his servants on high occasions, and the fine art of the process was fully shown us in the dainty management of ever' article of the service before the host, The teapot was a little jewel-like flat and unprofitable. Our Japanese friend explained to U3 ihat to the most critical and epicurean tea drink- ' era of his country boiling water was an abomination, as it scorched the leaves, drove out the fine fragrance jn the first cloud of steam and ex- ted all the bitterness instead of ti Rf f r (l ,,,, Jhef first sweet Uste of the young leaf- It may be all well enough for the coarse black tea of China to pour boiling water on it," said this moat delightful Japanese, "but the delicate leaf of our cultivated tea plant does not need it." And we bowed submissively, and promised never more to apply Chinese pro cesses to Japanese tea leaves. A Life Saving Present. Mr. M. U. Allison, Hutchinson, Kan. !

'Twas in the old and wicked days your Undo Sam began To dig his great canal beside tho river San Juan; And when they saw him work so hard and get along so slow, Tho foreign nations laughed ha! ha! and eke they laughed ho! ho! But when the work was done at last aud he began to build His mighty forts on either side, with au ger they were filled. They met in hasty conference one morn ing at Berlin, The very day that he had fixed to let the water in. And as tho water and the talk did simul taneous flow, The Carribbeau sea ran dry and the Gulf of Mexico. The great Gulf stream which used to wash and warm all Europe free Was siphoned through tho new canal into tho Southern sea. Next day a little cablegram covered with ica and snow Cama staggering over to Sandy Hook, with this its tale of wee: A wava of more than Arctio cold had sud denly ariz, Iu spite of grammar or precedent, and the whole of Europe friz. And every port was blockd with ice, and every town with snew: You could travel on skates from Liver pool to the Bay of Biscay, O. The savaus, all at loggerheads the reason to unfold, For some maintained 'twas lack of bent, others, excess of cold. "Whatever the cause," said tho cable gram, kicking its frozen heels, "Europe for sympathy and help to its Undo Sam appeals." "Tho reason is plain," said Undo Sam, and ho winked his aged eye, "You've negleotedto pay your water rates, and I've cut off the supply." Ho laughed ha! ha! and he laughed ho! ho! did wily Uncle Sam. As ho sent in his little bill of costs by the little cablegram. The air of Europe was black that day with blasphemy and sin, But tho nations did as ws all must do when tho plumber's bill comes in. $100,000,000,000 cash! and oh! they round ly awore, When they found tho Gulf stream didn't flow n? it lister Aul hefnrn.
