A REMARKABLE INSTANCE OF PsYCRoLoGIc
SYMPATHY.-The Duke de St. Simon mentions
in his " Memories" singular instance of con-
stitutiOnal sympathy existing between two
brothers. These were twins-the President
de Banquemore and the Governor de Bergnes,
who were surprisingly alike, not only in their
persons but in their feelings One morning,
he tells US, when the President was at the
royal audience, he was suddenly attacked
with an intense pain in the thigh at the
same instant, as 1t was discovered afterwards
his brother, who was with the army, received
wound from u sword on the same leg, and
precisely the same part Of the leg

BALTIMORE RIoTs.-The election in Balti-
more, yesterday, was attended with more Of
the disgraceful riots which marked the last
election. One or two persons were killed, nine
or ten mortally wounded, and many others
dangerously injured The Sum says:
"From the time the polls opened until they
closed disorder and riot prevailed more or
less, and firearms Of every description were
freely used. 1t Is equally certain that fraud.
ulent voting was practiced almost without
restraint and scarcely disguised, while great
numbers were deprived Of their franchise,
either by force and violence at the polls or in
timidaton from the reports current of what
was going on The history Of the day was a
lamentable commentary upon the assumption
of the Mayor that he had adopted sufficient
measures for the preservation Of the peace.
On the contrary, authority seemed poweress
disorder soon grew into riot, and riot culmi
mated in bloodshed and slaughter. There
was a notorious insuficiency to do any effec
tive thing for the main'enance Of order or fol
the protection Of cit Gems in the exercise o.
their rights"

sAGE's BROADCAST GRAIN sowER.

The Dubuque Cypress and Herald, OF
the Sd inst, has the following notice OF
this machine
Several times during the past week,
Mr.. Lindley has exhibited in Main street
and Market Square the practical working
of SAGE's BRoADcAsT GRAIN SowER.-
AS wheat is plentiful he has scattered ii
literally through the streets. Its opera
ton has been witnessed by hundreds OF
farmers and others experienced in SOW
ing, from this and neighboring counties,
also by machinists, implement men and
others. The farmers caved,' and all
acknowledged its superiority over any
thing yet introduced for that purpose, af-
frming the high opinion of its merits
rendered by State Fairs of most Of the
Northern and North Western States
The farmers say that it is just the thing
that is needed in this section of the coun-
try We hope arrangements will be
made for their manufacture in this city.
Mr.. L. will remain at the City Hotel for
a few days longer.

soLIDIFIED MILK.

Some readers may profit from the fol-
lowing account of the process of solidi-
flying milk. 1t is communicated in a let
ter from Duchess county to the Buffalo
IN. w. Courier:
There is in this county an establish
ment for the qualification of milk, SO
that it will keep in order for months, per-
haps for years. The manufacturing,
which is done on the farm occupied by
the Hon. James Hammond, is under the
superintendent of DR.. Isaac Smith
The process is as follows: The mixers,
as they empty their pals, strain the milk
into a large tub, into which is already
placed the requisite amount of the very
best sugar. This is readily dissolved BY
the milk, which, as soon as the milking
is done, is introduced into large shallow
pans. Underneath these pans steam is in
%troduced, and the watery part of the
milk is, by means of the heats, gener-
ated by this steam, aided by an artificial
current of air made to pass along its sur
face, rapidly evaporated. In this way
is produced, at the end of three or four
hours, a powder, Of nearly a cream color,
which, when perfectly dry, is packed in
TO cans for sale or future use. Ii will be
readily seen that this article cannot fail of
being of great utility and value, as for all
purposes, where milk and sugar are both
used, it fully equals the manufactured
article and as it will keep in good con-
dition a great length Of time, it may be
used when it is impossible to obtain milk
in any other form. | believe that Messrs
O'Reily d Co., who are the proprietors,
find a ready sale, and at remunerative
prices, for this manufactured milk.
