FACTS ABOUT LoBsrERs.-Like crabs,
Holsters change their crust annually
Previous to this process, they appear sick,
languid and restless. They acquire the
new shell in about three or four days,
during which time being perfectly defence
less, they become the prey not only OF fish,
but also Of such of their brethren as are
not in the same condition. :.
These animals are so sensitive to tfh
shock communicated to the fluid in which
they live, by the firing of cannon, that it
is said they wholly deserted New York
Bay, from this cause, during the War of
Independence.
They are extremely prolific. Doctor
Baster says that he counted twelve thou
sand four hundred and forty-four eggs
under the tail of female lobster, beside
those that remained in the body unobtru-
ded.

New YoRK.-New York at the present time
is full of life and goyety, hustle and business.
The Journal of Commerce says:
Our city is just now at the food tide Of tho
business season. The streets and hotels are
crowded, and tho entire city teens with life
and activity. Steamboats, and railroads from
every direction come crowded with passengers
and tho hotels are busy from morning till night
with the continued arrivals and departures
The following was the number of guests at
some of the principal hotels last Tuesday at
noon:
The st. Nicholas 1000: Metropolitan ego;
Astor House $50; New York House 400; Ir-
wing House 400; Howard House $50; United
States Hotel 250; Smithsonian House 250;--
Prescott House l30-making total of $3.50.
There arc large number of smaller hotels
that are also crowded with visitors Add Il
these the numerous boarding houses, which
accommodate hundreds of guests. aad some
idea may be formed OF the crowd of strangers
now in New York. The fall trade thus far hai
| in some Of its branches, been unusually large
Many houses are selling nearly double the US
ua quantity of goods. The dry-goods dcalcr
are particularly busy. Some of the large JOB
bing hooses arc compelled to work the eniir'
night in order to pack and ship the goods sol
through the day.

ART OF MILKNG.-The art OF milking
well is not fought in hurry. 1t requires
long practice to milk properly, and therefore
all the young people on farm ought TO be
shown how the labor SHOULD be done. 1t is
quite important that this branch of the dairy
should be particularly attended to, for a good
milker obtains at least q quart more from the
same COW than poor mixer.
The first lesson to be taught to young peo-
pie is gentleness and kindness to the cow
They never need be treated harshly, in case
the business is properly commenced. Cows
that have been caressed and uniformly well
treated are fond of having the milk drawn
from the udder at the regular time of milk
| ing, for it gives them relief from the ssten-
sions of thh milk ducts.
Let young people be put to milking the
farrow cows first, or such as are soon to be
dried, and then the loss from bad milking
will be less injurious. The hand should ex-
tend to the extremity of the teats for the
milk is then drawn easier.
Young people should be taught to milk as
fast as possible. More milk is always OBJ
tanned by rapid mixer than by slower one.
They should therefore be taught to think OF
nothing else while milking, and no CONVERSE
ton must be permitted in the milk yard
They should sit up close to the COW and rest
the left arm gently against the shank. Then
if she raises her foot, as she sometimes Will
merely to change position, she will not be
likely to put it into the milk pail.
In case of disposition to kick, or rather
TO raise her foot on account of pain occa-
stoned by soreness of the teats, the nearer the
mixer sits to her, and the harder he presses
his left arm against her leg the less risk will
he run of being injured. :.
Cows may be taught to give down their
milk at once--and they may be taught to hold
it long while and to be stripped indefinitely
The best way is to milk qnick and not use
the COW to long stripping, er an after strip
ping.--[ Northern Farmer.

A SvarRrsE.-A young American,
Mr.. P, who was visiting Paris with
the cold folks went to masked ball
during the last cornwall, to see the frolics
aud have some fun himself.
His great desire was to escort an angel Of
the fair sex,
He first looked all around. waiting to make
a decision the moment he should find a
fine waist and small feet. These beauties
he discovered in domino of small figure,
who took his arm and began to converse
with him. The lady told him his name.
the city OF the United States from which
he came, and TO his astonishment, related
TO him many flirting excursions which he
made last year, at Saratoga and Newport.
All these things, whispered in good
English, were very puzzling to the dandy;
and in order to find out who his fair COM
panion was, lie invited her to supp in a
private cabinet. The lady first iefuse&
but after some time she consented, and
the couple started in carriage for the
l.lyell known restaurants of ,VAnchette,
where all the Americans take their meals.
A cabinet was taken, the supper was
ordered, and when they began to eat, the
lady was obliged according to etiquette,
to take off her mask The "dem foine -
fellow discovered in her--who?-guess it.
You give it up? Yes She-was his
mother! The romance was over, and he
took the joke the best way he could, Mrs
P---is one of the prettiest American
women in Paris; and no one who looks a
her-considering the freshness of her com
plexion, and the beauty Of her charms
would for moment suppose that she hat
a son tweniythree years Of age.

AGE.

But few men die of old age. Almost ell die
of disappointment, passona mental or bodily
toll or accident. The passions XIII men somo
times even suddenly. The common expression,
.'chuked with passion. y has little exsggeration
in il; for oven though not suddenly fatal.s,roDg
passions shorten life. Strong bodied men often
die youpp--wcak men live longer than the
strong. for tho strong uso their strength, and
the weak have mono to use The lattor take
caro- of themselves, the former do not. AS it
is with the body, so it IS with the mind and
temper. The strong are apt to brake down,
or, like the candle. TO run; the weak burn out.
The inferior animals, which live, IN general,
regular and temperate lives, have generally
their prescribed term ofyears. The horse lives
twenty-five years; the OK fifteen to twonty; the
lion about twenty; the dog ten to twelve; the
rabbit eight: the guinea-pig six to seven years.
Thesy numbers all bear similar proportion
10 the timo tho animal takes TO grow to its full
size.
When the car,ilaginous parts of he bono be-
)mc ossified the bone ceases to grow lnis
takes place i'm man at about twenty years on
the average; in the camel at oight; in the horse
at five: in the OK at four; in the lion at four;
in the dog at two; in the cat at eighteen
months: in the rabbit at twelve; in the gulnea
pig at seven. Five or six times these numbers
give the term of life; five is pretty neae tho
average; some animals greatly exceed it. Bu
man. of all the animals, is the one that seldom
comes up TO his average. He ought to live I
hundred years, according to this physiologica
law, for FIVE times twenty are hundred; bu
instoad of that, he scarcely reaches on the av
crage three times his growing period; Wills
the dog reaches six times; ihe cat six times
and the rabbit even eight times the STANDARD
Of measurement. The reason is obyious-ma
is not only the most irregular and the most IN
tcGperate, but the most laborous and har
worked of all animals. He is also the most u
ritable OF oil animals; and there is reason
believe, though we cannot tell what al, auim'
, secretly feels. that moro than any ether an
NAL man cherishes wrath to keep ~ warm, An

THE WESTERN EMIGRANrs SONG.

llol Friends in the elder world hoary,
Reposing beyond the blue Deep
All covered with battle fields glory,
Where misery wakes but to weep
Lorn exiles from realms ofoppression,
And victims of tyrany's might
What'er be your name or profession
We welcome you here with delight.
Away from those lands rendered dreary
BY list that allow you no rest,
Ofundeserved injuries weary, ae
Come. come to the beautiful West
o, yes, while the war clouds are looming,
Enveloping banner and crest.
And the thunders of battle are booming,
Escape to home in the Wet te
A thousand sweet motives impclyou
To follow the track of the sun,
Nor can ye yorr osa hearts TiH toll ye
Live happy till this shallbe done;
Then come rear your cot in the wildwood
That sighs for the sound of your blows,
And there in the prattle Of childhood,
AID plenty and peace, find repose.
Broad prairiss with herbage are waving,
To tell you how rich is their soil,
o, speed the bright cloud they are craving,
And take their warm than ks for your toll;
The bosom of earth holds treasure
That ages would fail TO impair;
In this, would ye share without measure,
Ye have but TO delve for 1t there.
Here, show benefcient action,
A Character fair as the light,
Unwarped by the frenzy of faction,
And firm in maintaining the right
Teach despots that, calmly submitting
To laws in which equity reigns,
Ye know how 10 DO what is fitting,
Una;ded by scourges or Chains.
Then, when all those tolls have been ended,
That gIaddened your own chosen hearth,
And ashes with ashes are blended
And earth again mingled with earth,
When hearts your loved image shall treasure,
And hallow the place of your rest,
While viewing with soul thrilling pleasure,
The homes that ye formed in The West.
