The APOLOGY WORSE THAN THE ACT.
When we hear gentlemen apologisiDg
for my .Obstr3 3perous or vulgar conduct on
account of their having dined out, and
become excited beyond pfopriely by an
extraordinary indulgence Of bbacity, the
excuse seems to be more beinous than
the crime; and we are reminded Of a GU
rious anecdoie, that may heve been be-
fore in print, although we never saw II
there.
A certain king had certain jester,
whom he kept, according 10 tho fashion
of The time, to minister to his amusmenl
by witty repartees and ridiculous fooIer-
es. Ono day the kingwas STOPPING down
TO leave his face with cool water from a
golden ever While doing this, his jes-
ter came so1Iy behind him, ani applying
his foot suddenly to the kings, tr.pped
him mp, 50 that his MAJESTY was pfostra-
tod llat on the poor. The king rose IN
great wrath, and ex6crating the poor fool,
ordered his instant executions Where
upon the unhappy object Of bis displeas-
ure thre8 himself upon his Knees, and
basoa4ht so pteousy tor his life that his
Illuslrious master consented to grant the
pnItry boon on one condition. That con
dition was, that the jester should, within
a certain period, perform an act equally
criminal, and iustantaneonsIy make an
apology more criminal than the act itself
Bat few hours lapsed before the king
again stopped to leave his face in cool
Yater from the golden ever, Again the
jester came up softly from behind, and
precipitated bis majesty headlOng to the
ground. Tempestuous was the kings
rage; but il instantly subsidized into forglv-
ness and laughter when the Jester prompt
iy exclaimed
Oh, dear! beg your moiesty's par
don!--I thought it was your wifeH

VERMONT BUTTER.


The county of Caledonia, in Vermont,
has long been celebraIed for its dairies,
aud its butter and cheese has frequently
carried of the prizes fiom places where
the competitor is open to Tue whole Un.
ioa- Caledonia, as rs name imports, was
chiefly settled BY Scotch families; aud
the thrift of the country IS strongly ob-
ssrVable in that agricultural district
The editor Of the Farmers Visiler spent
few days in that country not long since,
and has given some interesting notes OF
his visit connected with The agriculture
Of the ldace. In the best dairies, those
from which the butter that took the high
premiums Of the Massachusetts, society
came, the milk is allowed to stand about
4Shours before tae cream is taken from
it. Ii is then cburned in the old fashion
ed wooden haadchurn, worked,in cold wa
, ter, which is repeatedly drained of until
the milk entirely dislppsars, and the less
the butter s worked, the better il is deem
ed. Working in the manner commonly
practised TO freq it from the milk; Is
condamnedin these dairies as.injlrious tc
the qualify Of the butter, leaSng it tough
or slnngy, and causing it to adhere TO Inc
knife. In the dairy OF Mr.. Bachop VII.
has obtained fge premiums at Boston fuI
bulser--two Of 500 each; aud three oI
$50 each.--ihe milk in warm weather
stands lbirty hours and in cold, forlyeigh
hours "a iha bot season, in this dairy
six podndspf Suits allowed to 100 pound:
ofbutter, Shdiacold weather four pounds
No saltpeter is used; but about pound
Of Gdnely powdered loaf sugar is sprnEled
into each hundred pouuds Of butter--
The butter ia these dliries, when mlde,
is pIaced'in iri,ins, which hold from thr-
~ TO City pounds. Il is packed 50 as to
bs very solid, and the surface Of the but
ter in tho irsins is covered wjtha thin
white cloth, over whichile salt is spread.
Soma cover tho surface with pure brine
and cleau cloth. Caledonia Ju,tsralways
commands q high price in market; and
that from premium dairtoJ ranges FROM
lwenty.three to thirty cents per pound -
The summer yield Of buitafffom COW
varies from 700 to l25 pounds each, tax =
ing the whole dairy, hcifsrs and cows
That the dairy business, even at such a
distance from market, is profitable, is
shown by the fact that nearly all the priD-
cpal families engaged IN it for any time
have, from small beginnings, arisen to op'
nlence. The agricultural pruducis Of
Caledonia, Independent Of tue dairy, arc
described as ample, and from every part
of the country proofs are accommodating
of the excellence OF tho crops, and the
rich reward which has waited on the Ia
