RULES FOR BUTTER MAKIHG.-The Mass
achusetts Committee on the Diaries says:-
"Your committee having had much expert
ence in butter making, offer the following
rules as the result of their experience: The
newer and sweeter the cream, the sweeter
and higher favored will 10 the butter. The
air must be fresh and pure in the room or
celia. where the milk is over SO hours. Keep
the cream in tin pals or in stone pots, into
which put a spoonful of salt at the beginning,
then stir the cream lightly each morning and
evening; this will prevent it from moulding
or souring; churn as often as once n week,
and MS much oftener us circumstances will
permit. Upon churning add the cream upon
all the milk in the dairy. Work the butter
over twice TO free it from buttermilk and
brine, before Jumping and packing. Beware
that it is entirely free from every particle of
buttermlk, and it will keep rs long as desr.
ed. In Scotland, syphon is sometimes
used to separate the milk from the cream
instead of skimming the pans"

Understanding to our last advices from
Utah it isquite possible that the kingdom
and the institution of Mormondom will be
extinguished or expelled from our western
Territories within few years, by causes and
instruments which have never entered into
the calculations of saints, philosophers, Or
politicians Grasshoppers, crickets and To-
Gusts threaten to do the work which has con.
founded alike our statesmen who believe in
the supremacy of "squatter sovereignty" and
those who maintain the supremacy of Con-
gress over the Territories.
The Intelligence which we published yes
terday represents the crops Of the Utah peo-
pie, over all that vast regions limited dis
trict here and there only exceptec-as in pro-
cess Of absolute extirpation by grasshoppers
and crickets, and that new ally, in the shape
Of locust. was appearing in some localities
to aid in the work Of famine. The poor NOR
mons were naturally alarmed and bewilder-
ed at the fearful prospect before them; for
with the consumption of their crops by those
voracious insects, rising out of the ground in
swarms, and eating up every green thing
within their reach, there can be no other al
tentative to the Saints than starvation, or q
rapid exodus to some more favored region of
the world, among the waste places OF some
other continent, or the unappropriated is
lands of the sea.

Hon. Sepastopolis Supplied ,ciih Provisions
and Fuel-Sebastopo is supplied with pro.
visions and fuel in liberal manner, and in
such way as greatly to benefit the Russian
producers. The wheat and other grain pro.
duced in the Ukraine was transported to
Odessa in wagons or carts drawn by bulIocks;
and, after the grain was disposed of, the Rus.
sian peasants or farmers returned with their
bullocks and carts to their homes. But now
they 90 to Sebostopol with their bullock
trains, and sell there not only their grain, but
their bullocks for the supply of the army, and
also sell their carts for fuel, and return with
their pile. The war is far from being so de.
structive to Russian interests as the British
press represents.

HARD TINES IN NEsRAsKA.-A correspondent
Of the New York Tribune, in letter dated at
Omaha, N. T., July IA, says:
Times are now hard in Nebraska. Provis.
ions are very high, caused by the emigration,
and the purchase Of supplies for the soldiers
now eng aged in settling matters with the In.
dams; several steamboat loads Of soldiers
have lately gone up the river. Flour is SIG
barrel, potatoes SIS a bushel, and other pro
visions in proportion. The pine lumber used
here is brought up the river from st. Louis,
and an average article costs S75 per thou
sand. The principal kinds of lumber cut by
the mills here, are oak. black walnut, and
cottonwood, The mill owners charge $40 a
thousand for saving the most common lum-
her, aud the most common barn boards or
sean,ling cost from $50 to $40 a thousand
which lie so expensive that but few of the
many that are now visiting Nebraska are able
to build. The average range of wages is not
in proportion to the high prices Of board and
provisions, and people who come here this
season should have plenty of money, for labo.
rers are now plentier than employers, and
none oan depend on steady employment ex.
cept at proportionately low wages.

SINGULAR STATIsTIcs.-The population Of
the globe is estimated ut 900O0O,O0O. 1t is
also estimated that number equal TO the
entire population of the globe, existing at
any one time passes away three times in every
century. AS the present population of the
earth has increased from single pair, created
about sixty centuries ago, and half Of the
pre- cit population might be taken from fair
estimate of the average number who have
carried away during each of the one hundred
and eight, periods, or thirds Of centuries, du-
ring which the earth may have been inhabited;
which would have 8,lOO,0O0,0OO for the
whole number who had been on the earth.-
Allowing nm average Of three square feet for
the burial of each person, on the supposition
that one.haIf die in infancy, and they would
cover 24,3OO,000,000 square feet of earth.--
Dividing this by 27,s7s,4OO, the number OF
square feet in square mile, gives less than
eight hundred and seven-two square miles,
which would afford sufficient room to bury,
side by side, all who have been buried in the
dust OF the earth--all of whom would not
suffice to cover the little State of Rhode Is
land.
