me fine calE was very much put to it Ito get her milked, all females protested a. gainst going near her long legs, in search for her bag and teats, as they were pretty well concealed, depend on it, and not to be found at all in the usual place in our or dinary breed, but much higher. However my anxiety about milking was soon over 1; the calf soon took all and wanted more. | began to alter my opinion of the breed, ~and disposed of COW and calf. I soon heard the COW was good for nothing for milk she was fed and slaughtered in the fall. Since, the breed has become more frequent; some have fallen into my hands tinctured with this improved blood. I have found them larger but uniformly less milkers. I have known several of my neighbors to try those cows for milk who have uniformly condemned them.
 A neighbor has had the curiosity to send to Massachusetts, to gentleman, for heif- CT, who is said to be of the first improved breed in this country. | understand his expense for her was about $1OO. She is a show. He was under the necessity ofpro- curing milk immediately for her calf, or it must have starved. I observed to him I was convinced the breed were not good for milk, and that was improving my breed by going back as fast as possible for the most ancient blood that it was from them that l derived any profit from my dairy.- The milker of this hcifer is now present, who is ofgood reputation, and he says she never gave more than three pints in the height of feed at a milking. could enu- mcrate numerous similar cases.
 There arc but few instances of the old breed of heifers that do not make tolera- 'ble COWS, to produce in common feed from 7to l2 quarts of milk, wine measure, at milking. It has been the case with mine uniformly; and that the smallest heifers make the best and most profitable cows. It is practice among those deep in the breeding of the improved breed, after pro- wing them, to feed and slaughter the most of them, reserving only the few that will give the most milk. &
 never have heard in this vicinity, with any confidence. of any giving large quan- tity of milk, nor any boosting of its quaIi- ty as being superior; presume the quail ty is similar. It is not uncommon that our old ancient breed make seven pounds oi butter per week, and the more extraordi- nary, 14, IS to 20 lbs. From my experi- ence and strict observation, shall have full credit to the improved breed, to say. they have generally half as much as the lit- tie ,docile, short-legged, ancient breed.
 Now if my statements are correct, it is important it shows on the one hand, that by keeping our beautiful old breed of COWS, they give farmer fine profit ]; on the other, we obtain from the improved breed heavy tax. A. R. <

THE HISTORY OF VERY CLEVER FELLOW
 like your clever fellows amazingly your open-browcd, open-hearted. open- handed, shrewd, enterprising characters; but as to your very clever fellows-I mean Yankee clcver-there is an ominous em- phasis in the expression. The appelIation was never bestowed upon me but once, and then imagined I could feel myself losing my foothold on responsibility, and sliding, like the man in Leggett's story, down-down-down. But that's mot to the point.
 Did you know Jack Easy? I am sure you did, for you lived at the same time, in the same town with him. Every body there knew him, every body loved him, and every body said he was a very clever fellow.
 And a beautiful boy he was, as healthy and cheerful a bright-eyed, rosy checked lad as ever played at ball, or blind-man's s buG. He was the joy of his parents, tho pride of his playmalss, and the fast friend of every human being who had ever ex- exchanged glances with him.
 Jack exhibited his peculiar qualities very early in life: whena child he would give away all his marbles, let tho little urchins split his top; and he always treated his own gingerbread as the English clergymcn Urea. parishioners-he took tenth part.
 He was too fond of play to be a good scholar; yet he was so ready to acknowl- edge his errors, received scolding in such good part, was SO kind and conciiating to hls teacher, listened with so much patience to his long talks, and paid so much respect to his learning, that the pedagogue could never find it in his heart 10 reform him so our hero, while at the academy, learned little more than to describe circle on the ice, and add apples to the school fund.- by subtracting them from his neighbours orr chard.
 After having got through, or rather got over his education, he was transplanted into retail store as clerk, where he in- creased hiss semployer's popularity by di- minisI,ing his wealth; the rich customers would never pay him any profit; and he had not the conscience to ask any from the poor; he always gave good measure and good weight, and was an entire srrang- CT to the thousand little ways in which men cheat their neighbors, and thereby gain a reputation for great shrewdness and at last his master told him that the credit side of his 'protit and loss ac- count was becoming so small, that it would

been directed to take the command of the operations
against the hostile Indians. We learn that men
sures have already been taken for raising the
mounted rangers, authorised by the recent act of
Congress, and that these will march, without
delay, to- the scene of warfare. General Scott has
been empowered to call for such militia force from
the adjoining States, as circumstances NAV
render necessary.
