THE CRors IN DANGER.-We clip the follow

inst We have not heard word of this destroy
ing insect in this vicinity, and sincerely hope
that it may not appear in this region.
WHEAT Cnop.-A general panic prevails in
this region on account of the present appearance
of the wheat crop. Within the last five days
little insect has made its appearance upon the
ground in the wheat fields, which is destroying
whole fields of wheat, in an almost incredible
short space of time. The first appearance OF
injury is the whitening of circular spots, ofvari
Gus sizes which extend all over the field. Nc
visible consuming of any part of the wheat, eth,
er above or below the groud, appears to the ma.
ked eve, but the insects are found upon the
ground in vast numbers, and the grain where
they are found, at once perishes. Ifthcy con
tinue to increase for FIVE days to come, as they
have for the last five days, there will not be
enough wheat raised in this section of country
for home consumption. We hope it may pove
otherwse-but we speak of the general opinion
of the farmers, that we have for the last two
days.

To Prercnt MILK Souring during Taunder
Submissive have heard great complaints from
dairy women, about the milk getting sour during
a thunder storm, although perfectly sweet shol t
time previous The following plans, suggested
by correspondent, will prevent this in great
degree: All the pans containing the milk ought
to be placed upon non conductors Of electricity
such as blocks of baked wood, pieces of glass,
or wood that has been we'll painted and varnish-
ed, The followsng articles are most easily pro
vided: Beeswax, feathers, and wooden cloth
are also non conductors, but inconvcnicnty to
to be used. All these articles will insulate the
pans, and prevent the electric fluid from en-
tering, which is the cause of acidity; or is, in
iact the principle of acidiiy itself. If glass
would be better still, and there would then be
no necessity for the practice suggested above
| The glass would preserve the milk much longe
sweet than pans, and the acid would have no eff
feet upon it. We are not aware of any acid tina
has the least impression on glass, except tn
| fluric acid. All iron vessels, or vessels com
very rapidly, and of course sour the milk, an
such is the affinity of iron for an acid that w
doubt much if it is washed out entirely. Iro
vessels, we are confident, are the very worst tina
could be used for that purpose; they eve
inferior to wood.-.4m. Ar.

MICHAEL ANGEL AND BLAIsE DE CEsENE.-
While Michael Angelo was painting his sublime
frcsco of The Last Judgement, the Pope Paul
ILL., came one day to visit him in the Sistinc
Chapel The suit Of the Pontiff was numerous;
many of those who composed it understood moth
ing Of this work of genius; among these was
the Pope's master Of ceremonies, Blaise &c
Cescnc. Paul asked him what he thought of
this painting; and as it is not obligatory upon q
master Of ceremonies to be also man Of taste
and good judgement in matters of art, Mcssre
de Ccscne did not hesitate to answer that the
frcsco was only fit to decorate a tavern or Il
drinking house, and unworthy of church.
Artists are not fond of criticism, and do not
always disdan vengeance. That Of Michael
Angelo was not long retarded; the master of
ceremonies found place in the picture among
the damned; serpent was coiled around him
and dcvouring him; his head was ornamcntcd
with ass s ears, in mcmcnto of his unlucky judg.
ment; the portrait was strikingly resembling,
and the malice of the painter was soon remarked
by every one.
Blaisc de Cescne duplicated Michael Angc-
10 in vain to Withdraw him from the place of tor
ments where he had plunged him, without regard
for his reputation The artist was memorable -
to the Pope to obtain justice.
Paul Ill. evaded the difficulty by his wit: 81
have" said he to Messirc Blaisc, call power
both in heaven and upon earth; if he had placed
you in purgatory might do something for vol
still; but you are in hell, where there is no re
mission

From Moore's Rural New Yorker
Washing Butter.

There is no peculiarly in the manipulations of
butter making, which is held with so much tc-
nacty among the female professors Of the art, as
the good and bad effects of washing butter after
churning and before packing. One set of labori-
Gus, pains taken housewives insist upon the ne
cessity of working the whey and eurd out by the
butter ladle and honestly think that a drop of
water used would ruin lump as big as Chmbo-
razo; while another equally reliable portion of
this "last best gift insist that there is no way
so good, quick and certain, as though washing
with pure, cold water, which can be done in any
weather, and with one half the labor of the ladlc
faction.
On looking at the subject philosophically, We
incline to the washing theory, for many reasons.
In the first place there can no bad effects arise
from the use of clean, cold water. Butter is
strictly an oleagcanous compound, in no way SOL
uble in water, while every part otthe rcslduum,
after the butter is consolidated, is decidedly SO,
and by diluting it with water, any particles left
are not as concentrated and liable to dccompose
and pass through the checsy fermentation as in
| their original state. Second it matters not how
much water is used as it does not enter into COM
bination with the oily mass Of butter; and if the
weather is hot and the water cold, it is in state
of hardness in few minutes, to express all the
|fwatery fluids, and finish the operation at once
which, in the ladle process, requires a day or more
of cool exposure. Thirdly, the labor is incom'
parably less, as there is little harder work thar
butter makers are subjected to, in working it pure
without the use Of water.
lfany of our lady readers doubt our conclu
sions, let them lay down a stone pot by each pro
cess, honestly and fairly done, and pint of strong
brine kept over the surface-and if on the frs
of May next, the hydrophc method is not thu
best, or good = we will pay round quarter 70
every pound Of it.

A NEW FORM OF MEsMERIsM.-It IS said that
4 certain clockmaker at Bristol, Connecticut, in
making some chronometers lately, found it i'm
possible for the workmcn to keep awake when
they were setting the instruments agoing. 1t is
necessary, regulating them, to count the beats
IN Il minute by a regulator, and change the hair
spring until both 60 nearly in time: then the
screws in the balance are turned until the great
est maximum is obtained, when they are rat, d
difficulty with the parts, but when the whole
movement is going, any person who sits down
and counts the beats, or watches the motion Of
the balance, invariably becomes drowsy. At
tempts have been made with other clocks, bu
they do not produce the same sensation. The
clocks are Of polished work, and gilded by pc
culiar galvanic process, which, if the facts be az
here stated, may have something to do with the
effect What is curious is, that the person who
is put to sleep continues to count the beating
Of the time with his hand or foot. The writer
in the Boston Post, who gives an account Of tEe
matter adds
cit affords some amusement to visitors to SET
a company of men at work and half Of then
asleep, yet laboring to keep themselves awake
Experiments have been made with strangers
and it invariably produces the same effect. Or
Saturday last a collier came to the factor,
with a load of Goals, and was admitted into thu
finishing room to see the clocks. One Of thu
workmen desired to make the experiment; &C
cordingly the old man was put to count, striking
on the bench with his hand in time with thu
clock; he went to sleep in three minutes, ant
was kept under the influence for nearly an hour
His dog that had followed him into the room
upon discovering his situation exhibited alarm
and ran about bowling in most dismal manner
all this did not disturb the sleeper, but the mo
ment the clock was stopped he awoke, and wa
surprised that so much time had passed. There
is some great principle hidden in these pheno
mena that is truly mysterious.

rather to avoid the ssity Of tagging them, is

A Mr.. CHARLES DAWSON, of London, has
constructed an instrument capable ofperforming
mechanically an unlimited number Of musical
compositions. It is called the .Autcphon. The
inventor in describing it says: although it can
play no music Of itself, it can play any music
that may be arranged on sheet Of paper supplied
to it, returning the sheet uninjured when the
piece is done, TO be again inserted ifa repetition
Is desired, or to be replaced by fresh sheet, if
another piece ofmusic be required.
