ADVANCE OF SANTA ANNA ON SALTnLo WITH
10000 TO 10000 MEN-cALL ron REINFORCE
MENTs BY GENERAL WORM.
New YoRK, Sunday, January 10Th, P. NJ.
A vessel arrived at New Orleans on LIST inst.
with news from Brazos to 9th aud from Tampico
to Goth December.
An express from Gen Worth, at Sallillo, arrived
at Monterey, on 10th December, stating that Santa
Anna was within three days march with 20, 900 to
10000 men, and asking reiniorcemcnts.
Gen. Taylor had left the day previous for Viclo-
ria, leaving Gen. Butler in command at Monterey,
who had sent TO Gen. Marshall at Carnage, and
Gen. Patterson at Montemorales, to send troops
without delay, and the latter started at once for
Monterey,
Monemorales is a small town about As miles
from Monterey, on the road to Tampico.
There was a report that Gen. Patterson had en-
tered Victoria, but this was doubted. The road
from Monterey TO Camargo was lined with troops
en- route for Monterey, in all four regiments and
stirring news will come soon.
All the squadron at Tampico was well and the
health of the troops good.

Great Flood at DAYTON, Ohio.

On the Sth inst. tremndous rise Of waters took
place at Dayton, which flooded the lower part Of
the city, and swept away a very large amount OIL
property. As usual upon such occasions the es.
innate of damage differs widely, ranging from
$780, to 10000 900. 1t was supposed tina,
several persons had persisted, but single body of
drowned child was the only one which had been
recovered.
The alarm was given about two o'clock, A. NJ
and the editor OF the Daytonian, Who with his
family, was aroused from his slumbers and warned
TO flee, as the water was rising Is inches to the
hour, the Miami having overlooked the Leyee
above the city, and washed away about so yards Of
it, gives the following description Of it,
The streets were crowded:with men, women and
children, some Of whom were seeking shelter from
the more favored ones, in the higher part of the
town-and others were standing in groups mutely
and sorrowlully watching the furious swelling cur
rent as it rolled down the overlooked banks Of the
canal, bearing upon its troubled bosom, the buoy.
ant materials deposited upon its banks, such a:
lumber, slaves, &c. &c.-oihers open horseback
riding their animals at the top of their speed, il
different directions, warning the slumberng in
habitants of their danger, taking women and chill
dren from those dwellings entirely surrounded BY
water, and informing persons where their labo
would be useful in rescuing property.
An extra of the 9Th furnishes the following
items;
1t may be stated that all the country of the Grea
Miami has suffered severely. The state works wer'
badly damaged
The rivers fell very rapidly during the night ant
continued to fall slowly till about o'clock p. NJ
In all the dwellings, visited by water, the floor
have accumulated heavy deposit OF mud. I'm
mense damage has been done 10 carpets, furni
ture, bedding, clothing, &c. &c.
There are but few dry cellars in the city. TIL
cellar walls of several buildings have already given
and are giving away. Many buildings are settling
down either at the end, side or corner. Aroun
the basin there has been great destruction of prop
erty. In the store of E. Brown g. Sons, the foo

HAY AND STRAW CUTrERs.-We are more and
more in favor of cutting up fine the straw and hay
and stalks that are to be the support of cattle
through the winter. We sometimes argued that
the best kinds of hay completely cured, could not
be much improved by cutting fine; and that horses
may as well fit il with their teeth as to trouble
gemmen' TO cut it for them.
But we are coming in favor Of cutting fine all
kinds of hay and straw and mixing with them a
little meal and wetting the whole.
A horse that is worked will fill himself sooner,
leaving more time 10 sleep and rest when his hay is
thus prepared, and cows in milk evidently yield
their riches in greater abundance on and moist.
ened hay and meal than on dry food OF the best
quality. But however this may be it is 10 be con-
sldered by all farmers that much Of the hay that is
fed out is not Of the best quality that even horses
are forced to eat hay that was not well cured, and
that straw OF all kinds is coarse that cattle can
not be expected 10 thrive upon it though j. may
keep them alive.
Straw therefore and the coarse kinds of grass
ought 10 undergo some preparation before they are
offered to be masticated by cattle. But COWS,
working and fat oxen, as well as horses, may be
fed better, and at much less expense on cut feed
than on any other.
One Iof our neighbors, who looks closely into
this matter tells that he keeps his horse this
kind Of food at half the cost of clear good hay
This horse is large, and would eat two hundred OF
good hay in week, if he was kept on hay alone
But his cut straw and meal last winter did not cosl
half the price of two hundreds Of hay Hay was
sold in many places last spring for one dollar per
hundred, while imported corn ranged from so to rs
cents per bushel Hay is not now quite as high
and corn is higher But our neghbor saved more
than half the cost last year. and he has no doubt he
now fully half by the use of a straw cutter
And his horse performs more labor than he woulC
on the best Of hay without grain.
Have any Of our farmers tried extensively ih'
plan of seaming hay for cows? The theory seemi
plausible, and we wait TO learn ifany one has gal n
ed enough by it to repay the labor.
