A cure for Consumption.

A Scotch paper relates an instan ce
sof young lady who was lately resto-
red to health, though, in the last sta
ges OF consumption, by the following
means. 1t is truly remarked that the
case is "singular if true." ~
The victim believing her dissolution
approaching, retired to quiet summer
residence 10 die. While in that situa-
ton it was her custom to rise as early
as her malady would permit, and con-
template the beauties Of nature and
the wonderful works of God, from her
chamber window, from which she OBJ
served a dog belonging to the house,
with scarcely any flesh upon his bones,
constantly 60 and lick the dew off a
'camomile bed in the garden, and in do
ing which the animal was noticed to
alter in appearance, and to recover
strength, and become plump and well.
The singulari,y of the circumstances
was impressed strongly on the lady's
mind, and induced her to try what ef.
feet might be produced from following
the dogs example. She accordingly
pro cured the dew from the same bed Of
camomile, drank small quantity each
morning, and after continuing it some
time, experienced some relief; her ap-
petite became regular, and she found a
return Of spirits, and in the end was
completely cured. t.HRhGr}agE

"Depend upon it, the great defect Of
our farming is the scanty returns which
we make to the soil that we crop so
closely; and when you complain of
poor returns for your labour, at least
in the quantity gathered, it is upon the
principle that you are willing to work
your horse but not to feed him. Until,
therefore, we feed with a more liberal
hand, we shall not be more literally re-
warded. IF compare your farming,
however, with what 1t was twenty
years ago, | see decided improve
ment; better houses, better barns, bet
tercrops, and stock essentially improv-
ed. With all these man improves
But there is a vast deal yet TO be done,
and we must not talk Of good farming
until we can In all things double, and
in many treble our present product;
for let me tell you the productive pow
ers ofthe earth are almost illimitable."

As round our chamber we hurried,
In search Sf the insect whose trumpet and drum
Our delectabie slumbers hid worried.
We sought for It darkly, a dead Of night,
ONs coverset carefully turning,
by the struggling moonbeam's misty light,
And our candle dimly burning,
No useless garment confined our breast, 2
But in simple night dress and slippers,
We wandered about like spirits distressed,
Or the sails of piratical skippers.

Judging preftyaccurately whether the J
will prove. good. The first point j.
the udder; if this is not capciods,Ior i
it has not the power Of becoming so
she willneyer be great mixer. Then
the color ofihe skin is very important
| you would have rich milk; it should
be yellow or rather mahogany color:
but you will want good teats, to draw
the milk; large teats, not standing close
toge ther, are a good sign. These are
lhemost important points. 4
AS to the form Of the COW, you viii
not choose large head and horns, for
it costs too)much to support them; nor
long legs, 10 make you hold the pail up
from the ground, and to require high fen.
ces. Long legs require too much sup
port; they are not good even for travel
ling. Choose short legged animals.
whenever you have the choice, whe,h-
er CO ws, oxen, horses or hogs. Choose
slender necks and tapering tails, straight
backs and broad briskets, for such feed
better, and are less liable to disease--
The cows body should be large in conf
parison with her head and limbs, but it
is not an object to keep very large cows
or oxen, or horses on our farms, as n
general rule. Middle-sized cows and
those below it, you will almost Away
find better mixers than large cows
are.
| In regard TO the color Of the body, a
red or yellow, or yellow -brindle, is in
dicative as any Of a good rich mixer.
You cannot always determine, by any
external marks, whether your heIfer
will prove good COW. After trying
her one summer, you can tell better,
and you can then turn her off for beef
if you choose. On purchasing you will
have some regard to color as matter
Of fancy.-No body wants black co w
or white one; and though party colo
red cows are endurable, no white man
buys q skunk.colored horse for his
own keeping.
Mild and gentle COWS are better than
irritable animals, and will be more
ready to yield their milk. BY close
scrutiny you can determine in some
degree by the countenance and mo-
tons Of the heifer, whether she is nat
urally docile; yet very much depends
on her breaking, her treatment and ed
ucation during the first season. Vic
ious treatment will make any animal
vicious; still there is a difference of
character independent Of education.-
Examine the eye and face Of the heifer
large mild eye, with yellow circle
or halo around it, is good indication.
The face should not be large. and the
bones should all be small in proportion
to the body. A large chest is evidence
Of good lungs and Of hardy ANIMAL
The hips should be we'll spread for OBJ
vious reasons. .''
By proper attention to selecting and
breeding, we may just as well have Il
race of cows that will yield ten pounds
Of butter per week as five POUNDS. We
know OF no neat stock superior 10 our
red Devon cattle; such as we meet
with in all parts of New England
