BUTTER.
Many women wlio make good Imtter
have the custom of skimming their milk
the saiir morning that they churn, and
mixing the cream with that which they arc
about to churn. This cream is left in the
buttermilk, for it will not make butter till it
becomes sour. Os this, any person who
follows this practice may convince them
selves by allowing their buttermilk to stand
twenty four hours and then churning it a
gain
When the strippings (the last milk taken
after three fourths or more have been milk
ed) arc mixed with the cream, it should he
allowed to coagulate before it is churned,
or else a part of the butter will be left in
the butt rtnilk, the stripping or last milk,
and the first cream that rises, make the best
butter. The Salt used for butter should be
of the best quality. Thai which turns damp
in wet weather is not fit to salt butter or
pork. This dampness is caused by muri
ate of lime, a salt of which there is a small
quantity in sea-water ; it will attract an
extraordinary quantity of water from the
atmosphere, and always weaken the brine
in which it is mix and. When good salt can
not be procured, the damp salt may be
freed from the muriate by the following
process: make a strong brine with som
of the salt, let the salt that is to he refill- and
be put into this brine for a day, stirring it
occasionally; then pour ofFthe brine, then
put clean water to the salt, stir it for a few
seconds, pour it off and dry the salt in the
sun. To make this process intelligible, it
should be observed that brine so strong that
it can dissolve no more common salt, is
s:ill capable of dissolving a considerable
quantity of muriate of lime.
To make good butter from thin ridged j
backed cows in hot weather, the milk should
be scalded as soon as it is strained, the
cream will then rise as thick as that of mus
cular hroad backed cattle, and make near
ly as good butter, and the churning may be
performed in less than halfan hour Care
should be used that the milk is neither
burnt nor smoked, for this reason the pot
should be set on coals and not allowed to
boil.
One part sugar, one nitre, and two good
salt, will preserve butter, almost unchan
ged for a long time ; but the butter must
not have been washed with water,* and
when packed it must he secured from the
air by covering it with a cloth dipped in
molted butter, the edge of which must be
soldered to the tub or crock with the melted
butter.
Charcoal, if it could he us and without dis
ficulty, has a pow, rfui effect in preserving
butter than any kind of salt. When a boy
I had occasion to see many firkins of Irish
butter opened which had been kept long in
stores. A part of the casks were burnt to
a coal on the inside. In all those the but
ter was perfectly sweet; in all these that
were not burnt, it was very much dama

HORSES.
There is as much difference in horses as
in men anil women, and he who has a first
rate animal may consider himself fortun
ate. The Morgan breed of horses is high
ly valu ‘d in New-Hampshire and in Ver
mont, and for service this race has probably
been superior to any in tiie country. The
Morgan horse was made for service rather
than for show ; and though he is not tall or
large, lie will perform as much as some
which are noted for those points.
The truth is, as all men of experience
must admit, that middle sized animals of
all classes are capable of performing and
are willing to perform more service in pro
portion to their size, than very large ani
mals of their class.
Some dealers in horses think they can
detect Morgan blood from the habit the ani
mal has of leering.and showing his teeth ;
hut from the knowledge we have of him we
should not consider him cross or vicious.
This race of horses is noted for great endu
rance, and near the end of a journey you
will find a real Morgan in as good spirits
as at the commencement.
You cannot always determine from the
looks of an animal what his performance
will tie; but by careful examination and
comparison an experienced horseman will
not often be deceiv’ and ; and any one will
choose better and with more confidence af
ter he has satisfied himself that the ances
tors of the individual, for several genera
tions, have proved good and true. W
may be deceived and we never should rely
wholly on ancestry, or on any one circum
stance. We need all the aids we can com
mand to ascertain all the qualities of a
horse, and a purchaser needs to put in re
quisition all his powers of judging.
A caution to those who hare faulty Hor
ties. —We often sutler ourselves to he- cheat
ed in a trade through impatience to be rid
of a horse, that has one fault. “If you
have one friend, think yourself happy,” is
an old maxim; and if your horse has hut
one fault, it is often better to wink at it than
to put him away sot a horse that lias two.
One will hastily put away a horse, because
he seems too small, for one that is lazy and
slow : Another will exchange a great eater
for a dainty horse and a taint laborer : An
other will put away a horse on account of
iiis complexion ! lor one that will stumble
and kick. A lame horse is put off in haste
for one that is in a consumption : One that
trotshard for one that will trot only when
he pleases; One that will not draw before
[oxen for one that is unwilling to keep pace
with them : And a horse with one oye for
one tlmt sees too many sights.
If your horse has hut one fruit keep him
and he easy : If your wife lias two say no
thin’’ about thegi.

PROPOSALS
FOR PUBLISHING BV SUBSCRIPTION
A FULL REPORT OF THE
Geological and Agricultural
SURVEY OP THP
STATE ©IF
F jj L IE Legislature, at their iast session, deem
ed it expedient to discontinue the salary of
Uie State Geologist, in consequence of tiie em
barrassed finances oi the State. By this unex
pected movement, the subscriber is deprived of
tiie means of completing tiie survey ol the State,
on the original plan: il done at all, it must be
at individual risk and expense.
It is needless, perhaps, to represent to the en
lightened citizens of Georgia, that by ioliowing
uu. the plan so happily commenced in 1837, ami
pursued with unremitting energy to the present,
the State has been contributing her mite, hum
ble as it may be on the part oi her agent, to the
cause of general science in our country, and the
advancement of intellectual improvement among
her citizens, in accordance \i ith other States oi
ihe Union. There is but one alternative. In the
present situation oi the survey, the work must
either be abandoned and the important informa
tion obtained by iour years investigation of the
Geology of the State, lost to her citizens, orthe
subscriber must depend for support, on individ
ual patronage. He is determined to make an el
tori, lor the benefit and honor ol Ins adopted State,
to jiroceed with the survey. From termer ex
perience of the unbounded liberality and gene
rous hospitality of his iellov citizens, in differ
ent parts of the State, lie is confident that, in
making an appeal to their sympathy and patron
age, it will not be made in vain.
That a complete survey may be made of the re
maining counties of the Slate, and the whole
consolidated and published for the information
and benefit oi the citizens, public patronage is
most respectfully solicited. A work ot this kind,
is much needed m Georgia, a State comprising
an area of sixty thousand square miles, being
destitute of a single correct May, Geography, or
history ot the same. A majority of the citizens
must, from necessity, be unacquainted with the
rich mineral resources and agricultural capaci
ties of tiie different sections. Favored as the
subscriber lias been, by lour years labor, as
Stale Geologist, in different parts of the State,
in collecting materials lor a complete report ot
an Agricultural and Geological survey and Na
tural History, he trusts that lie shall be able to
meet tiie approbation of his fellow citizens.
The subscriber pledges his honor, that the
proceeds arising from subscription tor the work
shall be appropriated to the completion ol the
survey ol the remaining counties ol the Stale,
■ and that they shall be finished as they will be
• needed lor publication.
