more, Aug. 4.--The mail is through from New
Orleans. The papers contain little Of interest
Gen. Quitman has come out with card m
relation to his conversation on the character OF
Gen. Scott, in which he substantially corrobo
rates all that has been asserted of that conver-
sation. 1t praises Scott as General, says that
the Southern Wings have done him injustice
and declares that he is not the man to be ruled
by Seward or anybody else.
Missouri ELECTIoN.-St. Ions, Aug. A.
The returns of our State election are yet in
complete, but there can be no doubt that the
whole Democratic ticket is elected, with the
exception of - and one member of Con
gress. These probably referring to Congress
men) are still doubtful, and nothing positive can
be known until all the returns come in. TIE
returns from this district look favorable to Mr.
Benton. In the 5th, the returns are favorable
to Phelps, Dem.
The Wings succeeded in carrying, 2 years
ago, in this Locofoco stronghold, three mem
bers of Congress, in consequence of the quar-
rel between the Benton and Anti-Bentonites.--
Benton run as an Independent candidate against
the regular nominee, as he did two years since.
The State Government and Legislature were
Democratic.

The LactOmeter,

The lactoneter Is composed Of wooden
frame, with set of long glass tubes, marked
with inches, and at the top with eights of an
inch. The object of this apparatus ls to ascer-
tain the quality Of milk given by each COW, as
shown by the quantity of cream when it has
risen to the top; as its depth is indicated by
the graduated marks in the glass.
] he milk from each COW should be put into
separate glass and it should be taken from
each at the same stage of milking, as the first,
the middle or the last. Each glass should be
filled at precisely the same height. And care
should be taken to turn the mlk into the tube
Immediately after milked, excluding the fruth,
az, by setting only few minutes, the cream
will BEGIN to rise.
The Iactometer Is .ighly vllU-Jle to every
one who keeps COWS, as 1t will ENABLE mn to
Judge Of the value of COWS by the proper cri-
terion, the richness or value of the milk, in
stead on its quantity or weight. One COW may
be regarded as the best in the herd, as she give
the largest quantity Of milk but on investiga-
ton the milk NAV prove to be thin and poor,
and Of less value fer dairy purposes than n
smaller mess given by another COW, whose milk
is remarkable for its richness.
1t requires only seven quarts Of milk Of some
of the Jersey cows to make pound Of butter,
while fifteen to twenty quarts are necessary
from some cows that have been distinguished
for yielding large quantities Of milk. Some
say that the average quantity of milk required
tor a pound of butter is ten quarts but we
! think twelve quarts would be nearer the gene
raj average.
The richness of milk depend very much on
the feed of cows; therefore, in making experl-
nens on the comparative value Of milk :fronl
different cows, the cows should all be fed in
the same manner, for several days or a week
before making the experment.-.lsp Ensianu

Facts about Milk

Cream cannot rise through great depth Of
milk. If milk is therefore desired to retain s
cream for time, it should be pat into deep,
narrow dish and ifit be desired to free it mos Z
completely of cream, it should be poured into
broad flat dish not exceeding one inch in
depth. The evolution Of cream is facilitated
by rise, and retarded by a depression of tenn
perature. At the usual temperature of the dali
ry, 30 deg. Fahrenheit, all the cream will pro-
badly rise in twenty-slx hours. but at rs deg.
it will probably all rise in less than half that
time, and when the milk is kept near tie freez-
ing point, the cream will rise very slowly, be-
cause it becomes partially solidifed.
In wet and cold weather. the milk is >ess rich
than in dry and warm; and on that account
more cheese is obtained in cold than in warm,
though not w thunderv weather. The season
has its efiects-the milk in the spring u sup-
posed to be the best for calves, jim the sNmlner
1t is best suited for cheese and in autumn the
butter Keeping better than that of summer
Cows less frequently MIXED than others give
rich milk, and consequently much better. The
mornings milk is richer than the evenings
The last drawn milk of each milking at times
and seasons, is richer than the first drawn
which is the poorest.

REACTIoN.-The New York Commercial hi
pcrtiScr concludes calm article on the subject
of the recent political reaction III both parties

Considerable attention to the course of
events has convinced us that the reaction has
most decidedly commenced on both sides. The
qualifications of Mr.. Pierce are beginning 10
be uncercmonously canyassed by Journalists
processing the same political faith, while ~ hlgs
who originally stood aloot from General Scott's
nomination arc yielding to the dictates of calm
cr Judgment, and giving hlma cordial support,
Nor Is this all, At the gathering at Lundy's
Lime there were representatives, from sections
Of the country where opposition to the Wing
nomlnatlon was expected to be severe and
pertinent. These felt the force of the Ell
thusasm that prevailed, and went home to di-
fuse it in their own localities And more than
this, Democrats were there-mcn who probably
were at first begulled into throwing up their
hats for "Frank Pierce who openly declared
their purpose OF voting for General Scott as III
comparabIy the best man for President These,
and many other Signs OF reaction OF sober So
cond thong ght--are good omenS for the success
of the Wing nominee and we trust that eve
ry Wing will he OF good courage, since, in the
ordinary course OF events, and reflection upon
them, General Scott must gam aud Mr.. Pierce
must lose popular confidence and support"

The Properties OF the Tomato.


To many persons there is something unplea-

excellent fruit. 1t has, however, long been
used for culinary purposes, in various countries
OF Europe, and has of late years been exten-
sively cultivated, and become general favor
ltc in this country. DIR. Bennett, IL professor
OF some celebrity, considers 1t an invaluable
article of diet, and ascrlbes to it very impor-
tant medicinal properties. He declares -
l. That the Tomato Is one of the most pow
crtul dco5Strucnis of the .Hlteria .iedicn, and
that in all those affections of the liver, and 9TH

badly the most effective and lc ST harmful re-
medal agent known III the profession
= That chemical extract will be obtained
from 1t, which will altogether superSede tine use
of caone in the cure Of diseases.
B. That he has successfully treated diarrhDa,
with this article alone.
That when used as an article of diet it is
almost sovereign remedy for dyspepsia aud IN
digestion.
). That persons arriving from the east or
north, to the south or west, should by ali means
make use Of it AS an aliment, as it would, in
tnat event, save them the danger attendant up
on those violent bilious attacks to which al
most all unacc limatcd persons are liable.
Il. That the citizens Ill ordinary should make
use of II, either raw, cooked, or III the form OF
catsup, with their daily food as it Is the mos,
healthy article in the materia diimentdria.

vines, slice up, and put them in IL pot over the

D~A few days since, as Mr. S. II. Perkins
was moving, near Rocky Pond, so called, in
the westerly part of Hollis, n. H., he was at

towards him, following him to some distance,
lashing the ground with his tail, and kissing
ieartuIly. With some ficuty Mr.. p, sue
ceeded in ,ransixng the snake with his scythe,

This is pretty tall "snake story" no doubt,
but common striped snake was killed near

ceased snake ran 64 juveniles cf the same
species, as we were informed BY our friend Dr.
ATwArER, who produced an avsrage sample
of the reptiles, alive and kicking, about nine
inches long If this disgusting "smphibilious"
race breed in this way, it is time that Congress
should take some notice of it. Unless some

HUosAC TUNNELL BoRER.-We learn that
the floosac Tunnel Borer was put into opera
ton for the first time on Friday last. The point
where it commenced work was slant of the
hill, and only portion of the main wheel had
a bearing on the rock Notwithstanding this
disadvantage, however the borer worked adj
nirably, and cut in eight inches in less than an
hour. Some few changes in the machinery
have been made since, and it Is now at work
gradually cutting away, so that the whole face
of the rock may be presented to the cutters
Until this is done, the machine cannot work eff
fectiveiy, as 1t cannot have that bearing against
the rock which it is intended to have. The en-
pertinent may be considered highly successful,
and the inhabitants in the vicinity ofthe noun
tain are very much pleased with the result. 1t
is probable that another machine will be order
ed for the other side Of the mountain.-Bo Boston
