We are infornied bv Sir Charles Nanier that t a euDstitute lor Hogging in two corps, and he is not aware that this mode of punish ment was adopted in any other regiment. The commanding officer of one of the regi ments, in question, then stationed in Guern sey, where liquor is cheap, gave out an or der to ay that he would not flog, but trual towlhe soUrs self respect for kecpingd soleron duly- Next day a man. was drunk, .uid confined. The colonel, accompanied by the surgeon, went to the guard house, and felt the drunkard's pulse: he was declar ed to be in a fever. - Nothing could be more true. He -ras therefore, put into a blanket, and four soldiers bore him tlirqujjh the bar- iis comratles all laiijrTTinff at the care taken of him) On reaching the hospital, the patient was put 10 Deti and blistered between the shoulders, fed on bread and water for a week, antf then discharged cured. He was then brought on parade, when the comman ding officer congratulated him on his recove ry fiom the fever, and sent him to join his company, when he was laughed at and jeer ed by his comrade, during the. space of a week. Many others underwent the same treatment; but the joke; thoueh very amu- ing to tho sober soldiers, soon began to be nqne to tlie drunkards. 'I he experiment , was completely successful. Not a man of .1. . n . . .. . that regiment was fliffirid in r2nirnii rVnhi the time the men were'treaied jwith blisters: i and after a fortnieht, there was no such thin? as a rnan drunk for guard or pader.'"Ndw, mis regiment naa Deen in an infamous state.

'.V-.-- FATTENING TURKEYS. : fJn looking over'some old papers a few days ago, we came across the following curi ous mode of liiitening, Turkey In the winter of 1818-19, a gentleman in the city made the following experiment. He plac- eu a mi Key in an enclosure about four-fccU long, two fretide and three or four fuel high. He exclude as much light as lie could without preventing a circulation of air, and fed. the turkey with soft brick broken into pieces, with charcoal also broken, and with six grains of corn per day. Fresh wai ter was daily supplied. Tbe box or coop in which the turkey was placed he always ockeu up with his own hands, and is ner leeiiy comment thai nobody Inteifered with the experiment. At the end of. the month he invited a number of hie neighbors, among -others, two phyaictans. The turkey, now very large ana Heavy was killed and opened by the physicians and was found lo be filled up with fat. The giriard and entrails were dissected, and nothing was louml but a resi duum ofchaircoal and brick To concilia the exaininntion eatisfactorily, the turkey was eaten ana lonnti to be Very good?" Last winter lie agtn -repeated 1he"pperlienl with the same success. The circumstance which induced him to make the experiment is a very curious one. One of his neighbors informed him, that being driven from the ci ty by the fever of 1793, his family recol lected that some fowls that had lived in a kind of loft over his workshops had been for gotie,i in the hurry of their removal, and would cerUmljp bu mm irj.- Thev ... auscut six or eight weeks, und on tho teiir- ing of the pestilences letumed. To thiir rataS,onishmen,,thefoWla were not only a- ing but charcoal &. thtvins thatthev could have eaten, and some water that had been left in thettough'ofa grindstoBe. tail upped them with drink1 It appears from the - bove that turkies are a'species of biped that thrive best on a Graham diet.
