Ayrshire Cow.

In Middlesex county, England, The Ayr
shire COW is preferred to all others. She
is found TO combine more of the qualities de-
sirable for a mich cow than any other
Tameness, docility of temper, healthiness
and hardness, with spirits, and good milk
ing qualities, are chiefly desirable. The
Ayrshire COW is said sometimes to produce
eighteen pounds of butter per week.
Mr.. Alton, in his Treatise on the Dairy
Breed of Cows;" thus describes the Ayr
shire cattle:
"The shapes most approved are-head
small but rather long and narrow at the muz.
zle; the eye small, but smart and lively; the
horns small, clear, crooked, ard their roots
at considerable distance from each other:
neck long and slender, tapering towards the
head, with no loose skin below; shoulders
thin; fore-quarters thin; headquarters large;
back straight, broad behind, the joints rath-
er loose and open; carcass deep, and pelvis
capacious, and wide over the hips, with
round, feshy, buttocks; tail long and small;
legs small and short, with firm joints; I'D
der capacious, broad and square, stretching
forward, and neither fleshy, low hung nor
loose; the milk veins large and prominent;
teats short, all pointing outward, and at con-
siderable distances from each other; skin
thin and loose; hair soft and woolly. The
head, bones, horns, and all Of least value,
small; and the general figure compact and
well proportioned." Mr.. Rankin very prop
erlv remarks, that, compared with other
improved breeds, the thighs; or what is
called the twist of the Ayrshire COW, are
thin. She is chsractsri'tically, not asshy
animal" .-.

The Horse.

Hon Zadock Pratt, in lecture on the
Horse, gives some valuable hints and sus-
gestions.
PoINrs OF Coon HoRsE.-Ife should te
about fifteen hands and half high; the head
light and clean made; wide between the nos
trils and the nostriis themselves large, trans
parent and open; broad in the forehead; eyes
prominent, clear and sparkling; ears small,
neatly sci on; neck rather short and well set
up; large arm or shoulder, well thrown back,
aud high; withers arched and high; legs
fine, fiat, thin and small boned; body round
and rather light, though sufficiently large
TO afford substance when it is needed; full
chest, afordnG play for the lungs; back
short with the hind quarters set on rather
oLliqrely. Any one possessing horse of
this make and appearance, and weighing
eleven or twelve hundred pounds, may rest
assured he has horse of all work, and a
bargain well worth getting hold Of.
CARE OF HoRsEs.-No horse can endure
labor all the time. a few months in pasture,
after being high fed and worked for several
years, will renew his energies, as stated
periods of rest and recreation will preserve
the vital energies of man, uminpaired thro'
a long life; and by wise law Of Providence,
which is as beneficial to beast as TO man;
horse will do more labor in the six days than
il he worked the whole seven.
In respect to the peculiar excellence Of
the horses of New York, l might say, have
driven pair two hundred and forty miles
in three days, or eighty miles per day, with
out injury.

GEN. REID.-This gentleman, lately in
command Of the Missouri forces in Kansas
to preserve law and order there, and eject
the renegade scamp Lane, has deemed it
proper to have published letter written by
himself to Gov. GEARY, in which, after re-
citing the wrongs of Southern settlers, he
asks the Governor, wouldn't you whipt me
if had taken Lawrence? This is the pith
Of the whole thing, though not the language
of the Colonel. Gov. GEARY, Of course, an
swers that he should have drubbed the Gen.
eral if he had done anything SO rash. All
this looks bad. No one, we believe, had
publicly charged Gen. REID with derelic.
tlon Of duty, or failure to discharge his
obligations 10 his men; though we have
heard il insinuated that he did not fake Ldw-
renee, according to contract; but that was
perhaps altogether owing to Gen. GEARY
connecting" little too soon at Lawrence.
Prudence, General, is said to be the better
part Of valor; and but few persons will ar
raign you for taking care of yourself and
your dear command, which, doubtless
caused you many sleepess nights. And
then, if the entrance of the General and
his men into Lawrence, was certain to de.
feat BucHASAN for the Presidency of course
Gov. GrART would not permit any sucf
folly! 1t would be ridiculous for him tc
thus act. The merest tyro in diplomac,
would not permit i'll Lexington Express

stock. the secretary shall call meeting Of
the directors and fix time and place
therefore: at which meeting when assem-
bled, FIVE of the directors shall constitute a
quorum, and make such bylaws and regu.
lations as shall be deemed necessary TO car
ry out the objects Of this association: prov-
ded such bylaws may be altered or amen
ded at any annual meeting of the company.
1t was further resolved, that the COM
pany meet annually in the town of Column
bia on the Sd day of the Boone County Fair
D. H. Hickman resigned, and Theoder-
ick Jenkins was elected secretary of the
company.
On motion Of Maj. Jenkins, the secretary
was requested 10 furnish copy of the pro-
ceedings of this meeting to the Statesman
aad Journal-and all newspapers friendly
TO this enterprise are requested TO copy.
The meeting then adjourned.

The Ten Commandments.

Have tfou no other God but me,
Unto no image bow thy kneee;
Take not the name of God in vain;
d. not my Sabbath day profane;
Honor thy father and mother too;
And see that though no murder do;
From vile adultery keep thee clean;
And steal not, though thy state be mean,
Bear no false witness-shun the plot;
What is thy neighbor's covet not;
Write these thy laws, Lord in my heart,
And let me not from them depart.

A KIND WoRp TO LAps on ToBAcco.-A
boy named West, living in Swansey, picked
up piece of cigar, and putting it in
pipe, smoked it. AS consequence, he was
taken suddenly i'll, and died in few hours.
Tobacco has spoiled thousands of fine
boys (including dangerous precociiy, de-
veloping the passions, softening the bones,
and injuring the spinal marrow and whole
nervous fluid.) A boy who early and free
ly uses tobacco never makes a man, in the
true sense; he generally lacks energy of
body and mind. Boys il you wish to be
anybody, despise tobacco, name and thing.
Smoked 10 Death. Three young men form
ed smoking club, and they all died within
three years after forming it. The doctor
was asked what they died of. He said they
were smoked 10 deafh!'
A youth of sixteen fell dead, with cigar
in bis mouth, in a dram-shop. What caus-
ed his death? The coroner's inquest said,
sit was mysterious act of God" The
minister at the funeral, consoled the friends
by saying the same thing Physicians said

Treatment of Colts.

A subscriber at Lexington, Mo-, solicits
information upon the subject of raising colts,
and also wishes to know how he can tell
which colts will make large animals.
We recommend (says the Valley Far
mer) in the first instance, 10 those engaged
in raising colts, to breed from the best
stock that can be procured. Too little at
tenton is paid TO this matter. Most people
think that if they get colts, that is all that
is mportant-forgetting that colt, when
it becomes a horse, if it prove to be a fine
one, will be worth double or treble the
amount Of a common one. 1t costs no more
TO raise good ctlt than poor one, and
consequently it must be far more profitable
to raise the very best that can be raised.
Colts should be allowed to run with the
dam until they are about six months old, at
which time, as general rule, we should
recommend that they be weaned. OF course
| it is better hot to work the dam at all while
the colt draws milk from her. BY working
the mare many colts are seriously injured
by drawing heated milk, and never recover

them. Two or three quarts of oats per day
may be given them. Good hay or cut feet
should be allowed them in proper quantities
daily. They should be kept in warm, dry
stables, and we are averse to their standing
upon plank floors, because we believe thei
