Shorn-Horn Cons.
Harris Le\vi, lit tin; meeting of tin-
I?ew York Dairy men'* Association, at
Elmira, assigned the following reasons
for his preference for Snort-horn
cows:
First. The short-horn cows have
good teats and nice scjuare bags.
Second. They are very quiet and
docile.
Third. They make the best use of
the food consumed of any breed.
Fourth. If not giving mil., will lay
on flesh.
Fifth. If wot good for the dairy
they can be cheaply turned into good
beef.
Sixth. They yield a large quantity
and good quality of milk, well adapt
ed for the manufacture of both butter
and cheese, and also well auapted for
the market.
Seventh. The well-bred short, horn
cow is decidedly good 1 king. Now
if any man in this association obj ets
to beauty in the dairy c >w, I hope he
will arise and remain standing until
he can be coiiuti and.
Eighth. I prefer tile hurt-horn
tow for tho dairy because slie will
produce the most milk, t h- -most but
ter, tho most cheese, and tho mosl
beef, for the food consumed, of any
breed of cows we have.
The Filmier.
Whatever mav ho saiii of the hard
ships of the f.riner, (and many of
them are imaginary,) lie H the imle- j
pendent man aft r all. While banks
are breaking, merchants fading, foun
dries tooling down, mills stopping,
and mauuf.iCt.mies becoming silent,
#the farmer s soil is just as prod u-tive
•is ever. His markets mv seem dull,
it, is true, and lie may lit. times feel
discouraged, b::t bo has bit own liv
ing—-s!urvation never crosses his path.
His cotton fields and his sheep will
yield him clothing, Li- granule's
bread, his stock meat, and his garden
and orchard luxnr.es. So amid tho
real distress of other callings he is
still the independent termer. Young
in u, think of these things before you
make up your minds io look up some
other calling. - Journal of Progress.
Charcoai, for Poultry.—There is ,
One tiling which nature dees not sup
ply and which civilization, the Ger
mantown 'Telegraph says, renders
quite necessary to fowls. It is char
coal. But charcoal made of wood
does not answer the purp >.-<•; it has
tlo taste of food, is not attractive to
the fowl, and is seldom eaten. But
if any one will put an ear of ripe corn
into the fire till the grains are well
charred, and then ..hell off the corn
ami throw it, to his (lock, he will see
an eagerness developed and a healthy
condition brought about which will
make a decided improvement. All
Dale combs will become a bright red,
that busy song which proceeds laying
will be heard, and the average yield
of eggs will be greatly increased.
A good article to use in the water
given your moulting fowls to drink is
the tincture of iron. It is very handy
and cheap, and should be accessible
constantly during the critical time
when old fowls are changing their
plumage. It is strengthening, palat
able, anil works like a charm in its
way as a stomach tonic. A table
spoonful of the. tincture to a quart of
water is sufficient. To be had at any
drug store.
Do all know that a tablespoon fill
of pulverized alum administered in
the food of horses having water
founder—a very dansrerous thin"
will in three or four days completely
cure them? It, is a simple re nedy,
any one can try it, and it will be sure
to prove efficacious.

Da. Lardsfr, tho noted scientist,
demonstrated to his own satisfaction,
the impossibility (, f a steamer carry
ing coal enough to answer for a voy -
age between New York and Liverpool.
It was said lie ofleivd to vat the boiler
lof the first steamer that should nc
| eomplish this feat. His view was
! scarcely published before a ntenmci
i had made the voyage under steam.
isat even then it was not re ilizod that
such voyaging would he possible as
'is described in tho following account
| of the steamer St. Osytli:
' On the 23d of Senteuih. r last she
i left Plymouth for .Melbourne, where
she arrived after a passage of rather
! less than 15 days. On her return voy
age she was 51 days out until she ar
rived in-the Downs, which tune in
! eluded her detention in Gape de
I Verde for coaling) her actual steam
ling time being under d'J days. On
1 her outrtr.rd voyage her engines were
! only stopped once for about three
hours, which delay was due to the
burs',ing of three boiler tubes which
; had been injured at Plymouth when
being cleaned. Coming homo her
: engines never stopped once until she
! reached Gape de Velde, which occu
pied over 40 days. Had it not been
: for the necessity ot recoaling, no
‘ doubt she would have made the run
home without a single stoppage. On
the <ntward voyage her consumption
of coal whs33l,d 1 , tons per 24 hours, and
On the homeward voyage it was 34
lons Australian coals per ’24 hours.
The St. Osytli is one of tlie Colonial
Line, and is commanded by Captain
; I'.. MXabb.”
In a recent lecture delivered in
I Edinburgh, oil “The Stars,” Professor
[ Grant gave a graphic idea of the im
| mousity of space. He said a railway
| train traveling night and day at the
rate of fifty miles an hour would reach
the moon in six months, the sun in
i two hundred years, and Alpha Cen
taur’, the nearest of the fixed stars,
i:i forty-two in 1 ions of years. A bail
j from a gun, traveling at the rate of
j nine hundred miles an hour, would
j reach Alpha Centanri in 2,700,000
| years; while light, traveling as it did
|at the rate of 185,000 miles a second,
l would not reach it in less than three
! years. Light from some of the tele
scopic stars would take 5,700 years to
i reach the earth; and from some of
these clusters the distance was so
| great that light would take half a mil
lion of years to pass to tile earth, so
! we saw objects not as they really are,
| but as they were half a million of
vears ago. These stars might have
| become extinct thousands of years
ago, and yet their light might present
• itself to ns. As to the magnitude of
! the stars, he noticed that it wascom
j puted that Alpha Lyra was one hun
! di ed billions of miles distant from the
j earth, anil its magnitude and splcn
j dor were as 20 to 1 when compared
I with our sun. Similar investigations
| brought out the fact that our sun was
! neither vastly greater nor vastly less
j than the great majority of the stars.

Buxkiso Saw. Sir Joshua luy
| nolds painted a portrait of Dr. Sutu
! no! Johnson, which represented him
! reading and near sighted. The (loe
j tor complained, and Sir Joshua
I thought to paint him true to nature
j would give additional value to the
portrait. Mrs. Thrale observed to
the doctor. Lie would be known to
j posterity for bis intellectual power
I and not his 'physical defects, and ad
verted to Sir Joshua’s portrait of
j himself, painted with the ear trumpet;
to which the doctor replied: “He may
; paint himself as deaf iis be chooses;
I but he shall not send me down to
; posterity as Hinting Sum.
Cart. Boynton recently swam
across the passage between the island
| of Capri and the port of Naples. The
! distance is betwen eighteen and twen-
Ity miles. Cupt. Boynton started to-
I ward 3 in the morning, and, although
lie did not stop on the way, he only
! reached the steps situated to the east
|of the Villa Natiouale at thirty-five
l minutes past 7 in tho evening, the
wild and strong current having de
layed him several ) ours on the way.
He was followed by several steamers
bearing the American flag, and land
ed in the presence of Victor Emanuel
and a large number of spectators.
Curious Facts. —lf a tallow candle
be placed in a gun and be shot at a
door, it will go through without sus
taining any injury ; and if a musket
: ball be fired into water, it will re
bound and bo flattened as if fired
against any hard substance.
A musket ball may be fired through
a pane of glass, and if the glass be
suspended by a thread it will make
no difference, and the thread will not
even vibrate.
No, no one would believe these “cu-
I riousfacts” if they had never seen
j them, and we never have.
An Italian journal, in discussing
I the election oft be next Pope, says
• . hat supposing, as is probable, 13
i Cardinals are created at the next
j Consistory, the number of the .Sacred
College will bo completed, and will
include ten Frenchmen, six Spaniards,
one Belgian, one Pole one American,
two Englishmen, one Irishman in all,
28 foreigners, whose votes, added to
those of the Italian Cardinals desir
ous of continuing the actual state < f
things at the Vatican, will constitute
a strong majority in favor of a for
eign Pope.
Tiie charity of some of our wealthy j
citizens “never faileth.” Last week a j
check for §25,000 waa received by the j
Trust: :. of the “S. 1!. Smith Infirm
ary," of Staten Island, N. i r . from
Mrs. John C Green, of this city, as a
donation from the estate of her late I
husband. In accordance with her
suggestion it is to be invested and
the interest devoted to the care and ■
support of victims of sudden accident
or temporary illness’ for whose relief
the infirmary is maintained.

THE DAYS ARE BKOiYEH! I.OMI.
Along tho 1 right horizon lino,
Dividing cut 111 from orient skies,
’Ye look more liortlivattl for the sign
Of light <t eh morn ns darkness dies;
Yon wood, toward which the sun . low croups,
Will soon resonml with chirping song
Throughout its still and nolonia deeps—
Tho days are growing long.
A week ago th - sunrise blazo
Loft far to shadowy north yon spire:
This Sunday morn, the first bright ray
Its belfry lights with ;;1 nun of fire,
That, shining through its window, sector
An eye prophelie of the throng
Of joys with which the vision teems
Win a days are growing long.
Life's day is growing long. We scan
With curious, hopeful, awe-struck gaze
Life's dim horizon-line that man
Must pass ere treading heavenly ways;
Oar nan each day the zenith nears.
We sit in memory's realm of song.
Like diamonds soon will and am earth's tear
Life’s day is growing long.
Hydrophobia.
Dr. Ilammond. Surgeon-General in
the linin', gives his decided opinion
tiiat the Spitz dog in the most, dau
gerou“ of all dogs, bis bite being more
likely to excite hydrophobia. It e
also Slid bv the Tunes: “With not
more titan three except ions, every ease
iif hydrophobia which has occurred
in this city or its vicinity during the
last three years, has Imen traced to the
bite of a Spitz dog.’’
As these facts have justly led to ex
treme iiieasmes for tho suppression
j of the evil, Mr. Burgh appears in be
half of tbe animals, an ! deprecates
their wholesale destruction. But the
life of that child on Staten Island, of
that husband and father in Brooklyn,
victims of the most fearful of all mal
adies, were more valuable than all the
Spitz dogs in the world.
It is a sad illustration of the will
ingness of the public to bo misguided
that the inane and insane views of
fanatical men will be accepted in the
place of the most enlightened teach
ings of science and the evidence of un
deniable facts. --.V. 1. O'lserrer.
How a mule ran away with a plow
and a negro up in Green county the
other day, and what, reports resulted
therefrom, is very clearly set forth in
the Greensboro Herald:
We stated a week or two ago that a
mule, attached to a plow on the farm
of Alexander, at Fonteuoy Mills, ran
away and killed a negro boy attached
to tho other end of the plow. It
seems that this was not so. Thi®,
however, was the first report we beard
about it. We have heard several
others since. The second renort was,
that- tho negro got Triad and bit the
mule, inflicting a very dangerous
wound from which it was thought he
would die—that is, the mule would
die, nflt tile negro. The next ac
count was to the effect, that the ne
gro iiecani" frightened at a hush, ran j
away with the mule, and came very!
near breaking his neck—we mean the’
nogro’s neck, not the mule’s. And
now wo just hear a different report I
still. They say that the negro was i
plowing along very fast and that the I
plow ran under a root, and owing to j
the speed of the negro and the plow
and the mule, the negro Hew over
the plow-stock ami lit on the mule's;
back, causing him to run away. The:
Imam and the foot broke, tho handles
flew off, and it was a perfect wreck
we mean the plow, not the negro and
the mule. We are rather inclined to
believe this last statement. Any how
1 it was something about a negro and n
mule and u plow.
A Spanish Grandee. —A poor but
| proud Spanish Grandee arrived.one
iiiolit. at an inn at a lute hoar, ltnock
: oil a long time at the gate and finally
roused the landlord. Who is there V

I “anil what do yott want?” “Shelter
; for the night.” My house is small
i and were not a single room engaged,
( there is not space enough in the house
for all the gentlemen you have men
tioned. Saying that he began to
shut the window through which he
was gazing into the darkness, when
the Grandee curtailed his epithets,
and after satisfying him, with much
difficulty, that he was the only person
present succeeded in gaining admis
sion for the night.

I will also make ADVANCES on
