Second. hepractice Of putting The milk Of all
the cows ola large dairy into vessel, as il Is
MIXED, there to remain till the whole milking is
finished, before ary part sput into the milk pans.
seems to be highly injudicious, not only on ac-
count of the loss that is sustained by agitation
and cooling, but also and more especially because
it prevents the owner of the dairy from distin-
gushing the good from the bad cows Milk, so as
to enlighten his judgement respecting the profit
that he may derive from each. Without this pre-
caution, he may have the whole of his dairy pro-
duce greatly debased by the milk of one bad cow,
for years together without being able to discover
il as has been before illustrated.
Third. lift be intended to make butter of a
fine quality, it viii be advisable not only to re-
ject entirely the milk of all those cows which
yield cream ola bad quality, but also in every
case to keep the milk that is drawn first from the
cow at each milking entirely from that which is
got lost it is obvious, if this be not done, the
quality of the butter must be greatly debased,
without much augmenting its quantity. 1t is ale
obvious that the quality of the butter win &c
improved in proportion to the, smallness of the
last drawn milk that is retained so that those
who wish to be singularlynice in this respect,
will do well to retain very small proportion Oh.
~ Of the last drawn milk.

ESS4 Y No. 81.

Third Aphorisn-Thick milk always throws
up a much smaller proportion of the cream that
it actually contains than milk that is thinner,
but that cream is of richer quality and if
water be added TO that thick milk, it will afford
a considerably greater quantity Of cream, and
consequently more butter than It would have
done. if allowed to remain new; but its quality
at the same time is greatly debased.
This is fact that every person attentive to a
dairv must have remarked but we never have
heard Of any experiment that could ascertain
either the precise amount of the Increased guam
tity Of cream that might thus be obtained or of
the ratio in the decrease oiits quality, but it as
certains at least the effect of mixing water with
the milk in dairy and the knowledge of this
fact will enable attentive persons to follow that
their own interests.
Fourth Aphorism-Milk that is put into pail
or other proper vessel, and is carried in it to
considerable distance, so as to be much agitated,
and in part cooled before it is put into the milk
pan to settle for cream, never throws up either
much nor rich cream, as if the same milk
had been put into the milk pans directly after it
was MIXED.
In this case, it is believed, that the loss of the
viii be nearly in proportion to the time that
has elapsed, and the agitation it has sustained
after it has been drawn from the COW.
From these fundamental facts respecting the
dairy, many important corollaries serving to d.
rect the practice may be deduced; among which
only few will be noticed.
FIRST 1t is evidently Of much Importance, that
the cows should always be MIXED as near the
dairy as possible, to prevent the necessity of
rying and cooling the milk before it be put into
the dishes.

In the present dearth OF news, the great Ser
pentof the ocean has again kindly appeared
for our relief, and displayed himself TO the
wondering eyes of the seamen of Cape Ann.
Whether he really is the same who honoured
that place with bis presence during the last
year, or another who has left the court of the
great deep tomake the tour of the Atlantick
is q matter of minor consequence to us, if he
be but an hundred feet long and as big as
barrel AT any rate, stranger OF this char
acter is sure to excite the public curiosity,
which is to be gratihed through the medium
of the newspapers; and thus their dull monot-
ony is relieved.-The session of Congress Is
closed, and the speeches are all made-Buon-
aparte zgM not escape from st. Helena, nor
will any other rise up to fiji the world with
commotion-the war between Spain and her
provinces, and the war of Gen. Jackson upon
ihe Indians, progress but slowly ;--there is
nothing TO excite that ardent curiosity, which,
we love to feel and to crafty, and which few
years ago existed, with respect TO 8 the deeds
commenced on this ball of earth" A new
state of things has arisen; and, instead of
feeding on bloody revolutions and battles, our
newsmongers must be content to be RECALLED
once week with stories of murders, robber-
les and monsters. We are therefore really
obliged to Capt. Woodward for the assistance
he has afforded us 10 our vocation.

POETRY.

THE ANGLER AND THE PHILOSOPHER
FABLE.
BESIDE gentle murn'ring brook
An angler took his patient stand;
He ey'd the stream with anxious look,
And way'd his rod with cautious hand.
The bait with incest art was drest,
The fishes left their safe retreat,
And one more eager than the rest,
Look'd, long'd, and swallow ID the deceit.
Too late she felt the poignant smart,
Her plying friends her fate deplore,
The angler with well practis'd art,
Play'a, hook'd and drew her to the shors-
Lur'd by the beauty of the day,
The sun now sinking in the sky,
A sage pursu'd his walk that way,
And saw the bleeding victim die.
Far in the vale of years declin'd
He watch'd the course of natures law,
And thus, with philosophic mind,
He moraliz'd ON what he saw.
Indulge while the pensive vein,
And fix this image in your mind;
You've hook'd fish, obse rye its pain,
And view the state Of human mind.
Fate gives us line, we shift the scene,
And jocound traverse to and fro,
Pain, sickness, still viii intervene,
We feel the hook where'er we go.
If. proudly we our schemes extend
And look beyond the present hour,
We find our straiten'd prospects end,
And own an over-ruling pow'r.
A while we sport, while lament,
Fate checks the line and we are gone,
Dragged from our wonted element,
To distant chimes, untry'd, unknown.

From the Baltimore Fed. Gaz.

Both the commerce and manufactures ofthe
United States have experienced great injury
| from the trade TO India and China--to this
source alone may be traced all the real embar-
easements experienced by the Banks and in
dividuals for the want of specie, as silver is
| almost the only article which is sent from this
country in payment for the goods imported in
such unnecessary and ruinous quantities from
India and Cbina-So disproportioned is the
excessive importation to the actual consump-
ton, that almost every individual merchant
engaged in the trade has suffered heavy los
ses yet, through strange intatuation, the
number of these voyages, so ruinous to the
projectors and so injurious to the nation, in
creases instead of diminishing. One vessel
making profitable voyage blots out the re-
membrance of fifty bad ones, or induces the
losers to suppose that, by another attempt,
they may regain what they have heretofore
lost; and the injury and distress which their
attempt NAV cause to their fellow-citizens
weighs moi feather in opposition to the ex-
pected advantages.
1t is curious fact, stated in an Eastern
paper, |" that the brig Rambler, recently ar
rived at Providence, brought back from Can
ton, 10000 dollars in specie" This is men,
toned as an evidence of her success in ira
ding voyage-ShouId it not rather be consd-
cred an evidence of the folly of sending spe-
Gle to China, and induce those to desisl from
the practice, from motives OF self interest,
who cannot be influenced by a desire to pro-
mote the welfare of their country.
