IMPORTED STOCK.

The Philadelphia Bulletin has the following allu-
sion to this subject which tells well for the spirit of
Improvement and enterprise which is abroad in the
land
Scarcely day passes in which the eye Of the
most general newspaper reader is not caught by a
notice of the importation or sale of blood cattle In
the East and the West there is a constant demand
for superior stock TO improve the breed, and there
are few farmers Of any means who do not possess
one or more animals to which they can point with
pride as OF superior quality.
This has been going so steadily and incessant
". and so much money has been expended in it.
that there is scarcely one, even among professed
agricumris,s. who would not be amazed If he could
realize the difference between the quality Of cattle
of every State in the Union fifteen twenty years
ago and at the present day. In the Patent Office
Report on Agriculture, for 1855, we find, from diff
fcrcu portions Of the most distant States such items
as the following constantly occurring: 'Our old race
OF cattle is nearly extinct" 1.-The cattle raisers of
our country have turned their attention for the
last few years 10 the Improvement OF the breed
The farmers in this section making considerable
effort TO improve their cattle by crossing with the
Duuhams and other popular breeds" When it is
remembered hat a single imported animal VIII make
"a serious difference IN improving stock, al 1lrg'fg7
and that the difference between superior and com
mon breeds is in most instances simply that between
good and Indifferent, this extraordinary and rapid
improvement in quality, such an agricultural
country as ours cannot be regarded in other than
highly encouraging light. Much Of this has been
due 10 the public spirited eXertions Of individuals,
who deserve the highest honor for their efforts and
much TO agricultural associations and fairs all CT
which deserve from fellow citizens and readers
the warrnest sympathy and encouragement, since it
is we after all, who in common with the farmer
JOY the results of every Improvement in the great art
OF pro iucing food.

The other day, Mr.. Muntz, who had been Member
Of Parliament, went to his long home. he had been
patentee ofan improved method of making copper
sheating for ships; and believed to bewealthy.
bis manner Of living. plain with all comforts never
indicated vast wealth. Hislwill proved, fort
night ago, and the personality, whchis wholly
irrespective of his landed estates, amounted to 49,,
600 600 He left $500, 600 and Of his furnished
house to his widow; S125 900 TO each Of four sons;
$4,000 to a son in New Zealand; 100000 to his
daughter: S., 900 to his brother 1.-THE executOr;) and
all the rest according to the Law and the fashion Of
English primogeniture, to his eldest son. Had so
wealthy man passed away from us, he would have
been duly advertised In England, few lines, with
out any glorifcaton, simply announce how his pro-
periywas disposed Of There is surprise whatever
at tradesman's having realized, in addition TO his
other wealth, the sum of So, 100000 Of personal
property.
In England the least ostentation is displayed by
the wealthiest. Some years ago, friend of ours
dined at private house in Manchester the cotton
opolis of England, and among the half dozen of
whom the company were composed-our friend, a
man of letters, and therefore poor, being the best
dressed of the lOt-one owned FIVE millions sterling;
two had three millions each; fourth had two mil
lions; and the host comparatively poor among such
milionaires, was worth about one million. Here
were e140OO,9OO, or 100000. owned by five
men, plain spoken. plain-mannered, and plainly
attired -PhiIg Press

KANSAS.

Our readers will see, in another part Of our pa
per, that the Convention which assembled to make
Constitution for Kansas, after electiug officers had
adjourned over to the third Monday in October We
have no information TO the reasons which induced
the Convention to adjourn over to the end of Octo-
Der, instead Of acting at once, and making a Con-
stItution but think that they not difficult to
understand. Governor Walker, by his promises of
support, has at length induced the Black Republi
cans o go to the polls in the approaching election
for Delegate to Congress. It is all important to
the pro-slsyery that the Delegate from the Ter
rtory in Congress should be with them. and support
the Constitution they should send TO Congress Be-
fore Walkers Intervention, the Black Republicans
had determined not TO vote. OF the rest of the po
pulatiou in the Territory, the pro-slsvery men had
the decided majority, and would easily have elected
the Delegate. But, since Walker has induced the
Black Republicans to come 10 the polls if the Demo-
cratic party consisting of pro-slavery men and
Northern free-sOilers, should be divided the Black
Republicans would elect the Delegate. The Con-
vention, acting at this time, and framing a pro-
slavery Constitution might divide the Democratic
party. Walker might induce those in favor of max.
ing Kansas free State, TO 60 with the Black Re-
Publicans, and thus elect to Congress the Delegate
from the Territory the floor Of the House Of Rep
opposed to the Constitution and the adj
mission of Kansas as a slave State into the Union
To avoid such result, the Convention, suppose,
has deemed best not to make the Constitution fer
Kansas until the election Of Delegate to Congress
is over. Having secured their Agent in Congress,
they viii be prepared then to make pro-slsvery
Constitution. This policy has been rendered neces-
Sary from Walkers success with the Black Republi-
can party. But il argues most certainly (ifthe
sons which have occurred 10 are the correct One
That the pro-savery men in the Convention have de-
ermIncd 70 have a prO-slavery Constitution. If a
majority Of the Convention were for making Kansas
a free State then the sooner they made the Consti
uuou the better for success as a National Demo-
rate party. BY making Kansas a free State at
'ncc they would take away from the Black Republic
ans all issues in the election of a Delegate to Con-
;ress whilst Governor Walker, the great dispenser
II the patronage of the National Democratic party
would operate with certain effect many of the /
Slack Republicans, whom he had already led to vic

ANIMAL DIET BAD FOR CHILDREN. There is no
greater error in the management of children than
that of giving them animal diet very early. By
persevering in the of an over-stimulating diet
the digestive organs become irritated and the vari
Gus secretions immediately connected WITH and ne
cessary TO, digestion diminished, especially tn
hillary secretons and costpation of the bowels and
congestion of the abdominal circulation succeed
Children fed, become, moreover, very liable to
attacks of fever and Inflammation affecting pa-tic-
ularly the mucous membranes; and measles and
the other diseases incident to childhood are gener-
ally very severe in their attack In reference to the
last remark, a distinguished medical gentleman
mentioned to US that, in families where children
lived on simple diet, if they seized with mea-
sles, whooping-cough, mumPs and similar diseases,
he never called but once, as he knew there was no
danger: but in families where opposite course was
pursued he always expected trouble.

TIE COTTON CRoP.-As general thing, the plan
tiers on the Arkansas river, make more cotton than
they can pick out and yet their crops vary in guam
tity. When We say that they make more than they
can pick out, We mean more than they can pick out
before its quality is seriously injured by the bad
weather of winter. This year the contemplating
season is fully from twenty five to thirty days behind
that of last year. The consequence is, that bale
this will make loss of from three to four bales to
the hand This enables the reader to see at glance
that large portion of the crop, and that the very
cream of 1t, must be lost An early frost this year
must catch the cotton in very bad way to see cold
company, for the rains have filed it to OVERLOOKING
