Minnesota Agricultural Society.

BY reference to the call of the Secretary
in another column, it will be seen that the
Annuul Meeting of the Territorial Agricul
tural Society is to convene in this city or
the first Wednesday in January. 1t is to
be hoped there will be full attendance
and that ways and means may be devised
to give the cause of Agriculture an addition
al impetus. The soil and the climate Of oul
Territory, as proved 10y past experience
demonstrate that Minnesota is destined tt
take high position in Agriculture, and it is @
duty to the Territory at large, that al
should take lively interest in everything
tibet tends to the development Of the resour
ces of the Territory Each Of the States
of HE Union have these Agricultural Asso
Citations; and great is the good that has re
suited from them. 1t is therefore to he
hoped that each citizen, at least every far
mer, will lend helping hand, and see to it
that the Minnesota Agricultural Societyis
at least conducted with that zeal which
characterizes those of the older sections Of
the Union. By, thus coming together, by a
free interchange of sentiment in reference tc
matters CONNECTED with, their profession
no doubt can exist that the farming com
munity will be largely benefited thereby.

fusion was made to some successful expert
ments made at the Maryland State Fair, by
MIR. Offutt, of Lexington, KY, in subduing
almost instantly, the most vicious horses. A
correspondent having desired further intorma-
ton upon the subject, we addressed letter
to gentleman in Maryland, who replied as
follows
In reply to your favor Of the IL, regret
that am unable to give you any satisfactory
information Mr.. Otfutt certainly possesses
some wonderful and incomprehensible power
over horses, but the why and wherefore is to
me inexplicable, All that know is that he
takes the widest and most uumanageacle an

dog, He also has theory relative to breed.

y published in volume. but he will only
sell the work to particular persons, and then
always with secrecy. He processes to be able
to tell the dis osltion and performances of an
animal Simply by his formation, and also says
he can teach any one to breed any particular
points or qualities by an iniallible rule

NOW TO DEAL WITH A KENTUCKIAN

The late celebrated Mr.. Clay once told the
following anscdote to friend OF ours:
Travelling in early manhood, in public
conveyance in a southeastern State, he found
himself in company Of three other persons,
q lady and gentleman, her husband, and OF a
person muffied up in cloak, whose counte-
nance was concealed, and who appeared to be
indulging in a-t4ts- n tete with Morpheus
Suddenly a big, brawney Kentuckian got into
the coach, smoking cigar, and frowned fierce
ly around, as mnch as to say, Pm half horse
half alligator; the yaller flower of the for
est, all birthstone but the head and ears and
that's aquafortis." In fact, he looked as saw
age asa meat axe, and pulled forth huge VOL
umes of smoke, without reference to the COM
pany within, especially the lady, who mani
Tested certain tinid SYMPTOMS OF annoyance.
Presently, after some Whispering the gentle
man with her, in the poiitest accents, request
ed the stranger not to smoke as it annoyed
his companion. The fellow answered, 81
reckon I've paid for my place. FL smoke as
much as darn please,and all he'll shant stop
me, no how" With that he looked danger
Gus, and rolled his eyes round as ferceiy as a
rattlesnake. 1t was evident that lie had no
objection to quarrel, and that, if it occur
red, twas likely to lead to deadly struggle.
Inc young man who had spoken to him shlrank
back and was silent. Clay felt his gailantry
arrnosed. Heconsidered for a moment whetn.
er he should interfere, but experienced d nat
ural reluctance to draw upon himself the bru.
tai violence Of his gigantic adversary. In
that lawleas country, he knew his lire might
be sacrificed unavenged. He knew himself
physically unequal to the contest, and he
thought, after all, it was not his business to
Quixotically to takeup another mans quar-
rel. Feeling pity for the insulted, and dis
gust towards the insulter, he determined to
take no notice; when, very quietly indeed,

ANTr- RA1LRoADs.-A sedate old black
smith, originally hailing from the "Keystone
State" but who had long made his residence
among the tabernacles OF the Buckeyes, was
expatiating to an admiring auditory on the
Pennsylvania anti-railroad policy, and wound
up as follows :-' Ya-a-s, these railroads are
bad things. In my younger days Pennsylva-
mans had to travel a-horse-back ten or TWEEN
ty days to reach Ohio, and then they Earned
something on the way; now the railroads
carry them there in as many hours, and set
them down as green as when they started

the cloaked figure in the corner assumed an
upright position, and the mantle was suffered
to fall from it without effort or excitement.
the small but sinewy frame of man, plain
ly dressed in tightly buttoned frock-coat,
with nothing remarkable about his appear
ance, was seen, and pair of bright gray
eyes sought the fierce optics Of the ferocious
Kentuckian. Without word this "lay fig
ure" passed his hand under his collar at the
back Of his neck, and slowly and deliberately
pulled forth a long, extremely long, and gilt
tering knife from its sheath in that singular
place. "Stranger," he said, ''my name is
Colonel James Bowie, well known in Arkan-
sas and Louisiana, and if you don't put that
cigar out Of the window in a quarter OF a
minute I'll put this knife through your bow
els as sure as DEATH" Clay said he never
forgot in after life the expression OF the colo
nel's eyes at that moment The predominant
impression mpde upon him was the certainty
of the threat being fulfilled, and apparently
the same conviction impressed Itself ere long
upon the offender. During two or three Sec
onds his eyes met those of Bowie. His was
the weaker and he quaied. With curse he
tore the cigar from between his teeth and
flung it, scowliug down-cast out of the WIN
dow. Upon this, Col. James Bowie as del'b'
erateIy replaced his long knife in its eccentric
hiding place, aud, without saying word to any
one else or even vouchsafng a glance at any
one re-foded his cloak around him, and dc
not utter another syllable to the end Of ths
journey-Ntw Our. ReuieO

How TO MANAGE SPOILED PoRK.-I have
for a long time been puzzled about saving my
pork, and have tried various plans, but none
proved to be SO good as the one | now set be-
fore you. When you go to hang up your
meat, if you find any of it spoiled, have a
pot OF worry etrons brine, and keep it boiling
hot, then wash the meat as usual and dip it
into the brine and let it remain about min
ute, then take it out and put little new salt
on it, and it will entirely remove the offensive
smell and make it quite as paltabe as it ev-
er was. The remedy is simple; try it and
then you will know.-Soafhtrn Recorder
