Drlak tar Milch t»wi. Cowi that give milk in winter, says the Maine Farmer, will add much to their profit by giving theta a bucketful of tvarm water twico a day, with a little meal, or eveu the ilop of the family in it. Every one has noticed how an extremely cold day will affect their milk, or whenever they become wet in summer. A little salt, with meal floating on the surfsco of such a drink, will soon teach any cow how to drink it. Mr. Blodactt** speech. The Atlanta Intelligencer (Anti-Recon struotionist as it is) thus alludo’s to Mr. Blopoktt’s speech on "Rolief.” in the State Convention, on Tuesday ; Never have the halls of legislative bodies in this country rcSchoed such thrilling eloquence. Ho held the en tire audienoe enchanted, as by a spell, and it will be many years before his talis manic influence shall cease to bo felt by those who heard him. A Bargain. In the show window of a certain dry goods store, there was posted, not many years since, this placard : “ iNo Reasonable Offer Re/useJ.” It chanced that a very pretty maiden was elerk in the establish ment. A youth being somewhat enamored of the fair lady, noticed the placard as he was passing by, and at onco rushed into the store, when tho following conversation ensued. “ I noticed your placard in the window, and thought I’d come in.” “Yes,” said the lady, “glad to see jou ; let mo scl 1 you some goods.” “ Well,” said the youth, “I would like to buy some dry goods, but I want a pretty little face in 'em. I thought as you refused no reasonable offer, I would take the best dress pattern you have, and also yourself.” “Very well,” said the fair clerk, “ I must stick to the text. It’s a trade. Pay for the dress, and I’ll throw myself into it, in the bargain.” There was soon after a wedding, and the sign “No reasonable offer refused,” became quite popular among the lady clerks of the city. —■— Titles to Real Estate. There recently occurred a peculiar evse, in Philadelphia, which shows the insuffi cient protection afforded by the present law to purchasers of property, and at the same time is calculated to cause no small anxiety among conveyancers. The facts are few. A suit was brought and judg ment given against a real estate owner in that city. A motion was made to open the judgment and graut anew trial. The motion was allowed. At the new trial, the previous verdict was re-affirmed, but between the opening of the first judgment and the giving of the second verdict, the property was conveyed. The purchaser brought his case to a well known convey ancer, of great respectability, and left with him the question of title. The convey ancer referred the case to a lawyer, who gave as his opinion that tho opening of the judgment was equivalent to setting it aside, and that the conveyance was legal. On the strength of this opinion, tho con veyancer passed the title as good. Subso quently the Court decided that the judg ment was not set aside by being opened, and consequently the title was imperfect* Failing to recover the money from the owner, the purchaser had resort to tho conveyancer, and the jury rendered a ver dict against him for the entire amount. This is the first case, we believe, which has occurred, iu which the question of the liability of a professional man for error of opinion has been fairly before the courts, aud the decision .is calculated to make gentlemen pause before they venture heedlessly into a decided opinion. If a conveyancer is liable for such an error, a lawyer is equally subject to the same danger. Liabilities of Hotel juts. The Supreme Court of Georgia hast just made a decision—in substance: An inn keeper is bound to extraordinary diligence in preservsug the property of his guests entrusted to his care, and is liable for the same if stolen, when the guest has complied with all reasonable rules of the inn. In case of the loss of the goods entrusted to the inn-keeper by his guest, the presumption is want of proper diligence in his landlord. In an action to charge an inn keeper for the loss of a trunk and its contents, the wife of the plain tiff is admissible to prove the contents of the trunk, independent of the Act of 18liC, where no farther evidence is obtained, upon a policy Javorcm justicice , springing out of the necessity of the case and the nature of the subject. Baggage is such articles of necessity or personal convenience as are usually carried by passengers for their personal use, and what are such articles must in each case be determined by the jury from the facts and circumstances which belong to it. When a hotel keeper sends his porter to the cars to receive the baggage of persons travelling, and baggage is delivered to the porler, and the traveller becomes the guest of the hotel, the liability of the inn-keeper as such for the baggage begius on the delivery to the porter, and continues until re-delivered to the actual custody of the guest. And if the porter of the inn keeper take charge of the baggage at the hotel to deliver it at the cars for the gnest, the liability ol the inn-keeper continues until the baggage be delivered. It devolves on the inn-keeper to show such tacts ns will discharge him from liability on account ol such baggage. Roles or Health.—Never hang yourself out of an open window when you go to bod. In cold weather, always wear thick, warm clothing about your body. If you haven’t money enough to buy it, attend an extin guishablo conflagration in the vicinity of a tirst class clothing shop. If you are quite a small baby, be careful that there arc no pins in your clothes, and always take a drink of milk punch out of a bottle with a gum thing on the nozzle before you get into your cradle. In eating raw oysters, always peal the slicels off before swallowing. The shells are indigestible, and apt to lie on the stomach. A long-bearded miller at Logan, Ohio, the other day, carelessly suffered his flowing honors to get caught in a revolving shaft. Bracing himself promptly, his heard was torn out by the roots.

The Conventions- GEORGIA. The Relief Rill Banned. Atlanta, February s.— The Convention passed tho relief clause to day—yeas, 82 ; nays, 45. It denies jurisdiction to the Courts over all debts contracted prior to the surrender, but leaves it discretionary with a majority of the Legislature to con fer jurisdiction in all cases except as to the purchase of slaves. SOUTH CAROLINA. Charleston, Feb. 4-—The Convention to-day passed an ordinance invalidating negro bonds by a voti of 9G ayes to 17 noes. Nothing else of importance. Charleston. Feb. s.—ln the Convention to-day, the Bill of Rights was read for the first time, and is liberal in its provisions- The right of suffrage is asserted without qualification ; the judiciary, with few ex ceptions, are elected by the people for various terms, ranging from one to four years ; entire judicial system of the State is changed, and expense of legal machinery greatly increased ; anew penal code is to be prepared and revised decennially. The Constitution provides for a school system and compulsory attendance for twenty-four months on all children between six and sixteen ; reformatory schools and agricul tural colleges are to be established; all schools and colleges supported by public funds to be open to all, irrespective of race or color. NORTH CAROLINA. Raleigh, February s.—The Convention has been occupied the past two days on the relief measure. It passed to-day, after considerable opposition, nearly as reported by the Committee, FLORIDA. Tallahassee, Feb. s.—The disruption of the Convention is a fixed fact. A majority of the members, yesterday, absented them selves, leaving the body without a quorum. The majority allege that there is fraud and deception in the rules, and arbi trary decisions of the chair, from wnich they have no appeal by the rules. They declare that they are powerless in the Con vention, and that the voice of the majority is not allowed an expression. Il is expected that the majority of the Convention will assemble, to-morrow, in the Senate Chamber, and frame a Constitution. They deny the eligibility of Pierce, Billing, Richards, Saunders, and Walker, to seats, on the ground that the former are not voters nor citizens of the State, and that Walker was judge of election, and ineligible under Gen. Pope’s order. A strong disposition prevails among the majority, white and colored, to plant them selves on universal suffrage, and against any proscriptive policy but a proper disqualifica tion upon ex-rebels from holding office. The minority are holding a secret session allowing no spectators, and are rapidly form ing a Constitution, without a quorum. They passed a resolution yesterday, declaring that the absent members were obstructing recon struction, and calling on the military author ities to insure their attendance. Col. Fleet, commanding, replied by producing an order from General Meade, that the military au thorities have no power to interfere in any way with the Convention. The excitement is increasing, and a pro found interest is felt in the effort to maintain the authority ct the majority. At o p. ra the minority of the Convention continued in secret session. The proceedings which have transpired is as follows : A resolution to pay members ten dollars per day from date; adopted Pope’s order 110, which gives each delegate pay for twenty days before the Convention; also, mileage of eight dollars for each twenty miles of travel. Also legislated in regard to the military, aud passed an ordinance pro viding a penalty lor intimidation at elections. LOUISIANA. New Orleans, February o. —ln the Convention, tho vote yesterday on tho question ol mixed schools was almost unanimous. Articles 143 to 143. under the title of militia, were adopted to day. Citizens disfranchised by reconstruction or this constitution, are not liable to militia duty. Militia officers must take the oath pre scribed for U. S. Army officers aud State officers. Article 146 prescribes the method of amending the Constitution—a majority of voters to ratify the amendment. Adjourned. MISSISSIPPI. Jackson, Feb. 4.—Nothing of general interest done in Convention to-day. A Convention of the Republican party of Mississippi will meet here to-morrow to nominate candidates for State offices and Congress. A. J., Stanton, and Grant. Washington, Feb. s.—The President and Stanton have had neither written or personal conversation since August 12th- The President's letter to Grant, January 3lst, contains this paragraph: “You had found in our first conference that the President was desirous of keeping Mr. Stanton out of office, whether sustained in bis suspension or not. Yon know what reasons had induced the President to ask from you a promise. You also knew that in case your views of duty did not accord with his own convictions, it was his purpose to fill your place by another appointment- Even ignoring the existence of a positive understanding betweeh us, these conclusions were plainly deducible from our varions conversations. It is certain, however, that even under these circumstances, you did not offer to return the plate to my posses sion ; but, according to your: own state ments, placed yourself in a position, when, could I have anticipated your action, I would have been compelled to ask of your predecessor in the War Department, a letter of resignation, or else to resort to the more disagreeable expedient of suspending you by a successor.” Grant’s letter of February 3d, alluding to the President’s letter of January 31st, and newspaper articles, says : “I find it to be but a reiteration, only somewhat more in detail, of the rnauy and gross misrepresentations contained in these articles, and which my statement of the facts set forth in niy letter of the 28th ultimo was intended to correct: and here I reassert the correctness of my statements in that letter anything in yours in reply to it to the con trary. notwithstanding.” Congressional. Washington, Februaey s .—Senate : A resolution authorizing the Secretary of War to employ counsel to defend the re construction officials, wag passed. The reconstruction bill was resumed The bill forfeiting Southern railroad lands was referred to the Committee on Publio Lands. After an executive sessiou, Senate ad journed.

The bill declares for feited to the United States all public lands granted in 1856, in Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi and Flordia, to aid in building railroads, aud declares such lands open to homestead, entry and settlement, under the law of 1866. Tho rights of American citizens abroad was resumed.
