FEEDING Mich Cows.-In reply to an
inquiry in the Cultivator as 20 the best and
cheapest manner Of feeding mich cows,
Mr.. J. A. Grimes of Harrodsburg, Kentucky,
gives the following method as practised by
him. We would add, there are few sub
stances more nourishing than corn fodder;
and the large stalks, that are usually lost, if
treated in the way recommended by Mr.. G.
makes the best food for cattle or horses.
eve procure in the fall all the corn shucks
we can, as the farmers put little value upon
them. When we commence feeding, we
have large kettle in which we can heat
water, and basket holding the quantity we
intend for each animal. We then take the
shucks to common cutting box, and cut
them as you would hay or oats, and scald
them few minutes in the kettle. Then
take them out and sprinkle three quarts oil
meal to the bushel of cut shucks, and you
will have a better feed than three gallons OF
corn or meal, fix it as you will. When ]
was last in Mississippi, the corn crop was
very short, and suggested this way of feed.

and horses as we'll as their mich cows, and

Mr. G. is most successful breeder oil
Berkshires, and has sold great numbers Of
the pure breed, as well as crosses with Irish

as one Of the first quality, Of which there
can be little doubt, it having been devised

Shin CharIes,-No piracy.

Itappears by paragraphsin different papers
that the loss of the passengers and crew of
the ship Charles when off the Baize, as was
supposed to have been put to death BY pi-
rates. and which caused SO great an excite
ment among the citizens Of New Orleans.
originated with the cowardice Of the captain
of that vessel in disgracefully abandoning of
her to whatever fate awaited her, when
he could have without difficulty succeeded
in making any near port he might have cho-
sen. At his instigation the crew and pas
sengers left the Charles and were taken on
board of another vessel which landed them
all safely at Charleston, S. c., where report
last speaks of them. The Charles has been
towed up to New Orleans, the mercantile
community Of which city were about to hang
in efigy the captain that SO basely deserted
her. The efigy to be swung up at the yard

Health of Yazoo City.

The health of our citizens continues re-
markably good. There has been very few
cases of sickness this season, none of which
have terminated fatally. We attribute the
general good health that is at present expe-
rienced here, to the rapid fall of the river
this year, earring with it suddenly from the
swamps their large lakes ofstagnant water,
by which means the bottoms were immedi-
ately dried up, preventing in great meas
ure the noxious efluvia arising that creates
the fevers of Mississippi. We fervently pray
for the continuance Of good health to Ourseif
and our neighbors around us.

THE CoTToN CRoP.-From every quar-
ter our information is, that the prospect Of
the cotton crop is most appalling, and viii
fall very short Of the product of the last year.
1t becomes our planters, in this dishearten-
ing stale Of affairs, 10 turn their crops to the
best account. In what manner this is to be
done, it is difficult to say. The enormous
charges they pay in New Oreans-the
| frghtful havoc made with THEN cotton there,
BY leaving it exposed to the weather, and
rolling il In the mud, till It's owner would not
recognize it, and the quantity stolen from
the rents made with the cotton hooks, by the
vagabond population of the city, who 90 a.
bout with aprons or sacks, TO putt in, be-
sides other objections, teach us 10 look for
no decided improvement, BY the present sys-
tenn Of things.
If the planters could unite and give out
their determination not to ship bale of
cotton TO New Orleans, but to sell it at their
commercial points on the river or in the in
terror, we should see a very large capital
concentrated at Vicksburg and Natchez, and
other places, in time to take the whole crop
OF the State, upon much more advantageous
terms, than il can be sold in New Orleans.
And this is what ought to be DONE Plant
ers are not merchants, and ought not to en-
gage in foreign commerce, where, being IN

ceiVed by the. cotton after il reaches New

HAY SEED AMONG CORN.

We saw an article in one of the southern
papers few weeks since, mentioning that
some one, we think in the middle States, had
sown Glove! seed among his corn and the
inquiry was AIDED, whether any one at the
North or Eas, had tried it ?" " reply, we
would inform the inquirer that lion. VIM.
Clark, ofNor,hampton, Mass, has for many
years born accustomed to lay down his light
lands TO grass in that way. His communica-
tons upon the subject led to the trial of tins
process upon the farm where we have earned
our bread. And we are disposed to recon-
mend trial of this method. Our belief.
founded upon the observation of results in
four different seasons, is that the seed will be
less likely to fail IN this way than when sowed
among grain that the first crop is much
more free from weeds is entirely free from
dead grain stalks; Is easier to NOV is equal
~ abundant; and better in quality. We
think all. lat grass lay thus made, holds
ont better than others. By tins process the
young grasses are exempted from The banelul
influences Of the overshadowing grains, and
from The whitening heat to which they are
exposed when the grains are removed
They arc saved from the stinting to which
they are usually subjected.
