A Good Joke.

We copy the following excellent Joke
from the Columbia (Texas) Democrat
Ii is well known that the two gentlemen
referred to, have been at swords points
for some years past:
Gen. Sam Houston and Com. Moore,
on their late visit to Austin, occupied seats
in the same stage. Not a word was spo-
ken by either on the route. On entering
a hotel one day to dine, they were Joined
by the driver. Moore having retired from
the table after dinner, says Houston t.
the driver:
You probably have more rascality on
board this trip, than you ever carried
before"
WhyG" asked the driver.
You have Commodore Moore along
was the reply,
All General" says the driver, - JUS
hsard Commodore Moore make the same
remark, but ii was ON your account"

Singular whale Fight.

We mentioned, says the Northern En-
sign, that a whale, 62 feet long, had been
picked up at sea, and taken ashore at
Nybster, some IL miles from Wick, Scot.
land.
1t seems from information on which we
can rely that the whale was not, as is.
popularity supposed, drifted from the
Greenland seas. but that he had fallen
only the previous day in single combat
between himself and another monster of
the deep. The conflict which took place
about a mile and a half from shore, and
which was witnessed from the land by a
number of fishermen and others, is de-
scribed as having been protracted and
bloody. The two monsters kept battling,
with each other, at times with their heads,
and at times with their tails, raising a
tremendous spray for many yards. After
a close and fierce encounter they would
leach retreat for a considerable distance,
and after a brief rest, would again meet
in collision, approaching each other with
locomotive velocity, at the rate Of SO or
60 miles an hour. On recovering from
the stunning effects of such a sudden at
tack, they would again resume the hand
to-hand fight, rising up in the water,
springing up distances of from 90 to 80
feet, and coming down on each other with
fearful violence. Meanwhile the sea for
a great distance round about had assumed
a bright red color, indicating hat an i'm
mense quantity of blood had been shed.
Other animals appeared to have fled from
the scene of the engagement; ever birds
kept at a distance from il. For three
hours the battle was prolonged, at the
close of which one of the whales became
motionless, and the other retired from the
field of battle. Next morning, as early
as four o'clock, the whale referred to was
found not far from the spot where the en-
gagement took place, and from various
marks on his body, including a broken
jaw bone, there is no reason to doubt that
he was one of the two belligerants of the
previous afternoon. The body gave every
indication of hsFiag been but very reoent-
ly alive.

The New York Journal of Commerce
learns that since the government has de-
cided to reduce the pay to the Collins
line, on account If the mail contract, the
company have resolved to reduce their
rate of speed, thereby avoiding an in
creased ratio of wear and tear, diminish
ing the consumption of fuel, and lessin-
ing the size of the crews, arguing that if
the government cannot afford to pay for
great speed, private individuals cannot do
it. The greater economy of the new ar
rangement is apparent from the fact that
the average consumption of coal per day,
at high speed, is eighty-fve tons; al low
speed, hfty-hve ions. This is a differ
enee equal to $4,000 per voyage, and il
is calculated that the saving in wear and
tear of machinery will equal this amount,
so that the total saving OF the twenty-six
round trips, rs required by contract, will
exceed 100000 per annum, or more
than compensate fOr the loss of pay. II is
claimed that there is nothing in the con-
trae; binding as 10 speed, hut simply ,hsi
the vessels "shaH he bull for high speed"

The vinegar Plant

The readers of this Journal will, |
make no doubt, Excuse me if | give them
my experience of this most use'ul thing,
which | really feel fairly qualified to chat
about, having nearly made all ny vinegar
in this way for eight years. During this
period | have given scores of plants away /;
in fact, | have done all | could TO get 9TH
ers to do as | have done-especally poor
cottagers, feeling assured that it was their
best plan. In order to convey a INST idea
of what it really is, | may as well quote
its character from the pages of the Gar
dener's Chronicle" which is, / presume,
a good authority in botanical matters. The
extract runs thus: "This is nothing more
than the spawn Of a fungus, or mould
plant, called Pendulum Glaueum; it is
of the same nature as those dots and
scums which in the language Of house,
keepers, render many kinds of aid moth.
cry. 1t undoubtedly has the property of
converting sugar and water into-inegar."
And now FOR my practice: Nv jar, in
which have always made it, holds five
quarts; into this l pu; one pound of sugar
and three-quarters of a poundail reacle.
| then pour hot water on TOD solve it,
filling the jar nearly full; it is ow care
fully stirred until thoroughly issolved,
when about milk-warm, nv vinegar
plant Is set afloat on its surface. A cloth
is then tied carefully down, to exclude all
dust, and the jar is set in our kithen on a
shelf in a warm corner. 1t REQUIRES com.
monty about five or six weeks ;Ibut if no
wanted, it has remained for a few week,
longer. When wanted, the fqating plan
is carefully removed, and the contents O
the jar are passed through q seve, in or
der to obtain the vinegar clear; ii is thel
bottled, corked, and placed among thu
stores. The vinegar plants a thick clot
generally about an inch or so inthickness
and appears like a Jelly of a leathery tex
ture; the young plants are produced un
derneath, several in n year. This sin
gular thing appears to adapl jfsslf 10 tht
form or size Of any vessel afler a giveI
time. We use il for general table pur
poses and for picking; aud | am no

against it.

A Machine for Milking Cows.

JoHN w. K~ISGsMAN, an ingenious far
mer, of Dover, New Hampshire, has in
vented a machine for milking cows, which
he describes as doing the work upon the
same principle as suction of the calf, by
means of connecting the teats, by india
rubber cups and tubes, with an air-tight
vessel, out of which the air is pumped
The apparatus draws the milk, eifht quarts

In u recent number of the N. T.. Farmer

of oxen for working teams on farms Of

it had been done successfully the COWS

as doing the work Of the farm. We have
never CHANGED to see COWS in the yoke,

of work often required of them.

The Missouri Hemp Crop.

According to the St. Louis Democrat,
the Hemp crop in that vicinity, lisa partial
failure. A short distance out from the
river the long continued drouth has almost
completely ruined the crop, and in some
places it will not pay the expense of har-
vesting. But along the margin of the
river where the dry weather was not so
destructive, the crop is at least an aver.
age one, and as respects quality, length,
weight of lint and fineness of fiber, is
equal to any ever grown in the country.

HOW to wash Fas f.eI

Some washerwonen w quite a
knack in washing flannel SO asio prevent
it fulling. 1t is not the soapsuds nor rim
sing waters hat thicken UP flannel in
washing, but the rubbing of it, Cloth is
fulled by being "%pounced and ounced' in
the stocks of the fulling-mill with soapsuds.
The action of rubbing flannel on a wash
board, is just the same as that of the full
ing-mill. Flannel, therefore, should al
ways be washed in very strong soap-suds
which will remove the dirt ~andgrease, by
squeezing, better than hard rubbing will
in weak soapsuds. 1t should also be
rinsed out of the soap in warm water, and
never in cold, as the ibres of the wool do
not shrink up as much in warm as in cold
water, after coming out of wariA soapsuds.
Great care should be taken TO rinse the
soap completely out of the flannel This
advice will apply to the washing of blan,
kets the same as it does Of flannel.

Any one desirous Of keeqng seeds
from the depredations of mice can do so
by mixing pieces of gum campLpr in with
the seeds. Camphor placed ii drawers

them injury. The little animal objects to
the odor, and keeps a good distance from
it he will seek his food elsewhere.
