A New CEREAL. We saw few days
since specimen of new cereal. grown in
this cousty. We eoald not get a description
Of the stalk, or an accosnt OF its origen, and
and, with nothing to guide US beside the ri
pened grain, We could not class it 1t ap-
peared TO be the fruit Of y rank grass,
stronger and larger than wheat, but moro
light and fragile than Indian Corn The
ear or cluster of grains, formed ON the sum-
nit of the stalk, was about three and d half
lnche sin length, about four inches in cir
shape Tue grains, Of which there were sew
eral hundred in the cluster, resemblea in
SIZE and form the grain of the common broom
corn were compactlY set, without an outer
or general covering, each grain having de-
licate husk covering about half its bulk The
grain was harder than wheat, rather brittle
aud, when broken. gave taste nndistin-
gnlshaoie itom that OF Indian corn From
the limited knowledge of the nature and ha.
BITS OF the plant, to be gathered from cur
sorry examination of this isolated specimen,
We incline to the opinion that it may become
pr1ifc and valuable nj ticle of agriculture.
The head or cluster that we saw will Weld
about as much in weight aud volume as fif-
teen or twenty ordinary heads of wheat.
We shall learn more about this interesting
specimen in few days. San J0oquin Re.

Our Wisconsin Banks.

Among the securities deposited with,
the Comptroller, by few of our Wis
consin Banks, are some California Stat
Stocks. AS one or two Of the Illinois
Banks had suffered in credit, in conse
suence of having California Stocks
among their securities, our vigilant
Comptroller, some days since, notifies
all the Banks in this State, whose issues
were in part secured by such stocks, t,
replace hem, or else deposit such add
tioual security reckoning these stock,
at so cents on the dollar as would make
good their issues. We learned las,
night, from Mr.. Comptroller DENNIS,
hat the Banks in question have respon-
led promptly to this call and have depos-
tied with him the amount IN gold, called
for by his circular. This timely move
lnent il creditable alike to our Banks
aud to the Comptroller, and will give
the public renewed confidence in oui
Home institutions. The coin required
was mostly furnished by our Milwaukee
Banks. As California Stocks are now
worth IS in New York and will undoubt.
eddy go higher, it will be seen thas .
large margin exists between their actual
market value and that at which they are
rated for the present by our Bank Comp

A COMPLIMENT 70. WIscoNsIN-The
\. Y. Church Journal, of last week, has
the following paragraph:
THE BANNER TO WIsooNsIS.-The
young diocese of Wisconsin, has, for the
first time, tried what it could do for mis-
sions within it's bordcrs; and the result
is three thousand dollars year. This
great diocese of New York, with ten
times as many parishes, ought then to
give $4,000, and if the comparative
wealth and numbers of the people are
also taken into account we ought TO give
$40, 900, or $4,000 year, to be even
equal to Wisconsin. Truly, "Westward
the Star of Empire takes It's way"

SETS US UP.-A correspondent of tn
Chicago journal writing from this city
sets it up considerably, and seems to ap
pretiate the many advantages possessed
by us. Here is what he sayS' OF our lie
cation, water-power and future:
''Rockford is the largest and hand
soonest town between Chicago and til,
Mississippi, on the line of the road. 1t
population is between and 10000
The natural width of the river at thi
point is about 40 rods, with 4 depth fol
lowing up the stream from 90 to | 90 feet
Down the stream the current is NOR,
rapid and the depth consequently less.
The bed ofthe river is sand, gravel, anc
in many places solid yellow lime rock

which mary public and private buildings
are constructed. At the lower extrem
ity of the city, where the river is shallow
ed by rapids, there is a dam built OF
stone, founded on rock" We leave j,

ave been deferred from the use of Gas

therefore,, the following article from the
Detroit Tribune will be specially inter-

ama patent which he is now offering in
Michigan:-MI Sent.
AuBIN's PATENT GAS GRNRRAroR.-
We notice movements in various parts
# the State in the larger villages, made
owards the formation of Gas Compsn-
.es for the purpose of lighting streets and
dwellings,, stores and offices with the
superior tight furnished by gas. The
Usual methods of manufacture require
90 great IN outlay of means in fitting up
buildings, to warrant their introduction
hto places other than cities where there
is an immense consumption.
10 remedy this Aubin's Patent has
,een invented, and is now being success
ally introduced into villages, large fac
tories, hotels, &C.,
The works complete consist of Furnace
II Generator: Hydraulic valve to pre-
.eht the gas from escaping when the re-
ort is open; Gasomcter or vessel for
toring the gas aud distributing it to the
,urrers; Tank or cistern, of wood or
rick, filled with water in which the gas
'meter rises IS the gas is generated, and
inks as it is consumed; Cooler or con-
lensing vessel, in which the gas circu-
Mes and is cooled, so that the vapors
vhic,. it contains when newly generated
lay be condensed; Pipe connecting the
ylraulic valve with the cooler; Distrib-
itiny main, connecting the gasometer
nth the burners, and Tar well or vessel
Or collecting the liquids which condense
n the Cooler.
The whole takes up but very small
space, aud can be worked very econom-
-aiiy, 1t Is sad.
The advantages claimed for it are;
ompactness and simplicity of construc-
ION and opera ion; certainty of working;
aiety from explosions, and eronomy.--
can be used on a scale great or small,
IS shall be required, and is highly rec
'mmended by competent judges Is an
vcellent means for supplying villages
