BE CAREFUL.-A woman in Barring
ton few days ago, in preparing Beet
for boiling, which measured thirty inches
in circumference, discovered on cutting
it open in the middle, a large Newt as
they are sometimes called, a species of
the Lizard, which probably got there by
some crack in the beet while growing,
which finally closed over the animal
They are supposed to be very poisonous,
and had she boiled the beet without dis.
covering the reptile, The consequences
might have been fatal. Much care should
be taken in preparing cabbage, beets, and
other vegetables for the table, that thew
do not contain impurities of some kind.

MILKINe.-In the morning the cows
should be driven gently two or three
times round the yard before milking; thew
will yield more for the exercise. We
have seldom hired good mixer. Fe
males are better than men, they have more
patience. A good mixer will obtain at
least one quarter more cream than one
that milks slowly. We have often proved
this; we hired one summer man from
w-Hampshire who had managed a
farm several years. He was clever but
extremel V moderate; we then had four
cows in milk, and discovered our slow
mixer was fast drying up our cows; we
concluded to give him our aid and let
HIM milk on Y two; on the first trial he
obtained the same quantity that we did
In one week we Obtained one quart more
than he at a milking; he said his cows
were not equal to ours; we then shifted,
and obtained, within nine DAYS, more milk
from his cows than he did from ours
This was wholly to be ascribe1 to his
moderate milking, for he left none in the
udder.-Boston CuIticator.
THEIR SPEECH BETRAYETu THEM.
A Jealous coloniz ltionist, lately, in con-
versatioa with an aboitionist, said, 81
ain anti-slavery, as we'll as you. Slavery
is an abominable thing. and | wish we
were rid Of it. Twenty years ago, | did
so and so on the subject But" contin-
ued he, "you abolitionists drive too fast
you should not oppose the Colonization
Society can we do with the poor
devils if they are not sent to Africa ?-
We wanted no further evidence that he
was not true anti-slavery man, or a.
friend to the people of color. His speech
betrayed him.-Mass. Abolititionist.
