direction. BY reading over the whg journals we
perceive that they assert positively-snd who
doubts their veracity, for they know what they
talk about, and can possibly give the corroboratve
authority OF that distinguished traveller, Roorback,
who is well known to Thurlow Weed-that vast
sums OF money have been transmitted to this
country by the British manufacturers in Blrming-
ham, Manchester, Yorkshire, and all the central
manufacturing districts of England, to the pockets
of the locofoce leaders in this country, and that
with this money they are now getting up their mass
rneetings-publishing news wspapers-circulating pam
phlets-and Illuminating all sorts of missiles in
order to carry the elk q on in favor of Polk and
Dallas, and repeal or modify the present tariff law.
Ii is very probable that there is more truth in this
than we can tell The lccofocos have money
that's certain. They do get up mass meetings.
They do "circuate the documents" They do
make monstrous noise, and all these things cant
be done without money Considering all this, we
should calculate that at least $500 900 have found
their way from England to the pockets OF the loco
focos. So much for their share OF the revival OF
American credit.
But this is not all the money-nor all the revival
of credit. BY looking into the democratic jour
mails, they reveal the story the other side, and
they assure us on the same verltable authority,
equally TO be credited no doubt, that the wings
have been receiving large sums OF money from the
British capitalists in London, who hold the State
stocks and various other American securities, in
order to elect Mr. Clay and whig Congress, by
whose aid they expect that a distribution of the
public lands will be made, and the assumption Of
tho state debts carried into effect, thereby putting
them IN the way Of receiving their dividends here
after IN full for their bonds, and The drpreciatsd
value would rise IN the market. We think this is
also very probable, and if We estimate that the
London capitalists are ittlc richer than the Brun
magem but'on-makcrs, We shouldn't be al all sur
prised if We could discover the secrets of these
financial operations, that those generous Capitalists.

A VEGETABLE MAN.

Among the many curious specimens
of art and nature exhibited at the State
Fair at Poughkeepsie, New York, was
a figure which, says a contemporary,
would have made stole or nissan
thrope split his sides with laughter
Here is his portrait drawn by an eye

Goddess 1t was composed of yege
tables, the face only excepted. The
head was huge cabbage, large enough
to furnish a small family with winters
supply of sour crout. Then came the
mask face. The ear rings were com
posed of fine strings Of beets; the arms
were compound substance, being
composed of about equal parts of on
ions, beets and carrots; around the
neck was strung necklace ofpeppers;
the body was huge pumpkin, 50 large
and tempting in appearance, that it
seemed to say scome and eat mc;' two
muskmelons served as thighs, heads of
celery for the knee parts Of the legs,
and crooked necked squashes made no
mean imitation of a Chinese shoe!-

MILKING.

We are fully satisfied from our own
experience that the quantity of milk af-
forded by cow depends, in great
degree, upon the art of the mixer, and
that no COW would be good one un-
der the management of the majority of
the milkwomen of Virginia. The fol
lowing useful but simple directions are
taken from the Boston Cutivator:
" Let no small children enter the
yard at time Of milking. Let not the
cows be disturbed at night, but APP
proach them with kind words. If you
scold them or whip them, as some do,
you may be cheated Of half your milk.
After you have brushed the dirt from
the udder and seated yourself on the
right side of the COW, grasp the teats
one in each hand near the extremity.
Squeeze gently at first, or the COW may
be panied and start away? after few
squeezes you may venture all your
strength. In about half minute, if
the COW has been well bred, the milk
will flow as fast as you can possibly
draw it from the teats. Now let moth
ing interrupt your labor. Squeeze the
teat and draw it down at the same mo-
ment, and at every relaxation Of your
hand for more milk in the teat, Sress
UP your hand against the bag and this
will have tendency TO bring all the
milk out of the udder; it is an inita-
ton of the butting Of the calf against
the bag.
