Wo remember an anecdote in point, and will relate it by way of illustration. A farmer having purchased a oovv from a country abounding in the richest pasturage; upon taking her to his own infi -i I 1 pastures, found tiiat she fell short of tlie yield which he was in. formed she was accustomed to give.—- lie complained lo I ho gentleman of whom he had purchased, that the cow 1 was not the one lie had bargained tor, or, in other words, licit she was not what urn “was cracked up to be.” “Why ,” sir l tlie seller, “1 sold you my cow, hut did not sell you my /ms 7 lure too.” Tim above, which we cut from an exchange, reminds us of (ho reply which a shrewd oi l farmer, whom vve knew many years ago, made tonne of his neighbors. The latter hud obtained roam pigs of a man residing several miles oil", a:i I who, because intelligent, particularly urpassed his neighbors in raising. .Shortly alter, meeting the old gentleman referred to, lie says— “ Well, Mr. Sweetser, I’m going to boat you raising hogs this year ; I have got some of .1. M ’ breed.” “A-a h,” drawled out tho old man, “you’d better get the breed of bio hog trough.” bUMKI'AM’ hIIMtoVKMEN':’ AM) Ec'UN- Oi'lV IN THE MANIIKACTUKE t)E FLOUR.— A recent English paper emtauu a de tailed account of a remarkable inven tion, which is likely to effect a com plete revolution in the manufacture ol .flour. The improvement consists in the substitution of conical for llal mill stones. It was slated, by a committee ol tlie House ol Parliament, that by this invention 81,857,13'.) quartern loaves, io addition to those which are ’ now made from the same quantity of wheat, would be produced, giving a clear saving of upwards of 432,000,000 per year. Too “conical” mill is intended to obviate the delects of the flat mill. The benelioi.il changes effected may b succinctly enumerated. First, the re j duciiou of Uie weight of the nmuiug J stone Irom 14 owl. to lj oat; by plac ing it beneath instead of upon the lived one; s colid the reduction ol size of the stones in proportion of 1-31 lol; and thirdly the giving to the stones anew form —that ol the frustum to cone. Ihe average of less ‘iiii'.g the diameter and weight of a mass, of which the one is 4 owl., end the older 4 owl., will be apparent, when it is considered that its effective velocity is 13J revolutions per minute, aa I ill it this velocity must b‘e suMadied agains'. tlie enormous friction of the grinding surfaces. The altered position ol the running stone admits ol a much in ire delicate adiust neat of tlie oppo ii iIT 9UT lac -s ami gives to the miller uii easy and elf:ctive control over tlie most im- ! portuut portion of his opefuti m. The | conical form facilitates the discharge of j the flour, and obviates the clogging and j over-heuLmg of the old practice. In addition to these advantages, by a judi cious modification of the ordinary mode of dressing or rather by a combination of tho mill with the dressing machine, a perfect separation of the flour from J the bran is effected at tlie moment the 1 grist escapes from the stones. The tir.ni still remains ill the mill, and falls ■by its own gravity to u second pair of stones, in all respects resembling those already described. Matrimonial Statistics- —A Por ! tuguese paper gives some statistics which could otily be obtained undoi one of those governments of tlm spy I and secret pollice system. They re port in state of matrimony in tiiat coun try. There are in Portugal 872 834 married couples, of which the present 1 condition is very nearly as follows: wo. men who have left their husbands for tlicir lovers, 1202; husbands who have left their wives fur other women, 2301; couples wiio have agreed lo live separ ately, 33,120. Couples who live in open warfare under Ihe same root, 13,- 203; couples who cordially hate each other, hut dissemble their aversion un der the appearance of love, 102,330; couples wno live in a state of tranquil inditferunce, 501,132; couples who are thought by their acquaintances to be happy, but are not themselves convinc ed ol their own felicity, 1,102; couplet that are happy us compared with those ‘that are confessedly unhappy, 331, couples indisputably happy in each other, 0.

Ibo ryes vnd tlie flutter disappeared i Irom the window, like stars in a cloud, and vve almost fancied, as vve parsed on,- we could hear the paltering of two little’ i , ‘' L 't upon (he stairs, winged with welcome. h was u trifle; it happenijd in an instant, but it haunted up for an hour. oily, those word* fell upon the quiclc ear aloft, mid met u glad response. “It s me! And who was me? Tho pride of a heart’s life, no doubt; tho tree u vine vvus clinging to; tho “De fender of the faithful,” in- the best sense in I lie world. it s me! Many there are who* would give half their hearts, add more’ than hall the hope in (hem for one such recognition in this “wide world.” Oft’ Change, m tlie Directory, at the Fost Otlice, lie was known us A. 13.

A gentleman, claiming to boa <frein'd to the human race,” and who keeps tho mu ol tacts, figures and babies, has just | laid before “an inquiring world” the fallowing statistics: “The whole number of languages spoken in tho world amounts to 30(31; 587 in Eurnpo, 030 in Asia, 2711 iri Africa, and 1204 in America. Tho inhabitants of our globb nrofess more than 1000 different roll-’ gions.

Women need the Maine Law.—: This remark fell recently in a speech from Judge Kelley; ol Pbiludelphia : “Women need the Maine Law as well as men. I violate no coni.deuce, I mention no names, I point to no plaoe; ut this very evening it friend parted from me at my door, who would have been here, but who was rfbt able to come, because—bis wife was drunk?” After giving u frightful picture of the home of a drunken mother, and of the gin moth* r of the ragged school chil dren that he had scon m Edinburgh; whose good clothes v/efe at once torn from their back to pawn for drink, he gives some statistics as to female in temperance in West Philadelphia, as to the number of drunken females that were brought before Ins court, and as to instances, recently, in which hus bands had been compelled to (dace in temperate wives in the Insane Asvluin, tnat weie received by the audience by athrili uf 4 horror.
