MILK AND CREAM.-It is asserted that milk
always throws up smaller proportion Of the
cream it contains, when of some depth in the
vessel than when shallow, and that more
cream rises by diluting the milk with water
and rendering it less tenacious. although the
quality of the butter is injured by this treat

The secession movement in Brooke and
Hancock counties seems to be going forward
with Determination. The Wellsburg Herald
of the 25th ult. states that the meeting to con-
slider the proposition for the secession of the
upper part of the "Pan-H Handle" to Pennsyva-
MIA was a large one and showed great enthu.
siasm on the subject. 1t says;
Resolutions plainly and emphaticaly setting
forth our grievances and determination, were
thoroughly discussed, and adopted with great
unanimity, and committee appointed TO Cor
respond, and to carry out the objects of the re.
solutions adopted. The meeting was then ad
journed until next Tuesday evening. Nine
out OF Ten OF the citizens are in favor oft an.
nexatlon to Pennsylvania, unless we can OBJ
tain from the State some guarantee that will
protect US in the future, and compensate us for
theanomaious and injurious geographical no.

weighed all the consequences and the proba.

of their purpose to secede if possible from Vir.

The CongressionnI Districts.

The difficulty of arranging the COMPRESSION.
al districts, so as most effectually 10 disfran.
chise the wings, and, at the same time, &C.
commodate the largest number of democrat
ic asprants, has not yet been overcome. In
the Senate. after two or three weeks OF sehem.
ing and wranglng, q schedule has been adopt
ed, different from all the plans that were be-
fore the lower House. Like the one which
passed that House, however, it allows only one
wing district Mr.. Caskie is victimized-
The Richmond district, running from Fluvan.
ma to Williamsburg inclusiyoiy, is wing by
eight or nine hundred.
This district is made upas follows Charlotte.
Campbell. Appomattox,C Cumberland. Bucking-
ham. Amherst Nelson, Albcmarle.an Greene.
This gives democratic majority, according
10 the PRESIDENTIAL vote of 269 and bumps
the congressional heads or Messrs. Bocock
and Powell together, in a way not likely to
give pleasure to either.
According to this scheme the following
counties compose the sixth district
Halifax. Pittsylyania, Henry Patrick Frank
lin, and Bedford-will. a democratic majority
of 574. a
Thetwelhh district is made up Of Boueiourt,
Craig. Roanoke, Montgomery, Allegheny,
Monroe, Giles, Floyd, Greenbricr. Boone, Lo
gan, CabeIl, Wyoming Wayne, Fayetre, Mich
olas, Pocahontas and Raeigh-wth a demo.
cretc majority of CSC.
The Enquirer thinks there is no possibility
of the House oncurring-remarks, that the
whole subject is again at sea"--and raps the
democratic majority over the knuckles by tel
ling them that their action "w III inevitably pro-
tract the session-and must be regarded as a
subject Of deep and lasting regret to tho Dem
ocralic party" The whole difficulty, we
suggest, would be removed, if the party could
make up their minds to act honestly about the
matter.
