The remainder of the United States forces belonging to the exploring patty, were left in pursuit of the Indians. The Pawnees are said to have fought desperately, and to have killed eight of the Dragons. Several of the

 Moculating Cheese.-What will the ingenu. ity of man not contrive? method has been discovered of inocuIating cheese: or, in other words. of transplanting tbe character of an old cheese into a new One.> This rather cu- rious scheme is brought forward as q commu- nicatiOn to the Agricultural Journal for March, by John Robinson, Esq. Secretary of the Royal Society of Edinburgh. "If it he re- quired," says he, " to communicate to new cheese the flavor and appearance of an old one, it may be done by the insertion in the new cheese of portions of the old one contain ing biue mould. The little scoop which is used in taking samples of cheese is ready made means of performing the operation. by interchansing ten or dozen of the rolls which it extracts, and placing them so as to dissem- mate the germ of the blue mould all over the cheese. A new StiIton cheese treated in this way, and well covered up from the air for a few weeks. becomes thoroughly impregnated with the mould, and generally with flavor hardly to be distinguished from the old one. | have sometimes treated half a Lancashire cheese in this way, and have left the other half in it's natural state. and have been much amused with the remarks of my friends on the striking superiority of the English over the Scotch one" If this ingenious plan he found really successful on repeated trials by others.
