BEST BIT FOR A HARD MoUTHED HoRsE.-
A subscriber in Copenhagen, New York. in
quires, in the New York Rural of April II, for
''the best bit for a hard mouthed horse" lam
happy to inform him that bit without joint,
slightly curved-about one-half to three-fourths
of an inch in diameter-wll cause his horse to
be driven with great pleasure to himself, and
ease to the animal. Some prefer straight
bit, but one with a curve fits the mouth better,
and is preferable This bit will most likely
prevent his horse "from leaning his head while
in harness" of which he complains. Some
few years since, had a noble horse, but with
a mouth like flint; to drive him was torture
to man and beast; my hands were black and
blue for weeks, from winding the reigns around
them, and hard pulling. Such bit as describ-
ed worked a perfect cure, and enabled me
thereafter to drive him with thumb and finger
only. l hope your Copenhagen friend will
publish the result of trial, and oblige many
of your readers.

RICH MILK-WHo CAN BEAT IT Wv. II.
Robinson, Of Irondeqouit, informs us that he
has a three year old heifer which will come in
about the 1st of next April She now gives
(Dec. l0) four quarts of milk per day. Nine
quarts of this milk were churned, and produc-
ed 2 lbs 10 OF, of butter, or A OF. from one
quart of milk. Another trial was made the
next week, when 10 quarts of milk produced
8 lbs. of butter or As OF. of butter from one
quart of milk This, we believe, is the largest
yield of butter from a given quantity of milk
on record Can any of our readers beat this I?
Mr.. Buckminster, of the Massachusetts
Ploughman, states that four quarts of milk from
his Devon heifers give one pound of butter /;
Mr.. Prentice, of Albany, N. Y, states, in the
Country Gentleman, that his Ayrshires pro-
duce one pound Of butter from six quarts of
milk and Mr.. Norton, of Pennington, Conn,
has Attorneys that beat this somewhat. The
general average, from good diaries, is 'Dout a
pound Of butter from fifteen quarts of milk.
The heifer of Mr. Robinson is part Devon,
Durham, and native She was fed on clover
hay, and had in addition about half bushel of
potatoes per day Mr.. r. thinks no other roots
will furnish so much butter in the Winter as
potatoes The butter produced by the heifer
is as yellow and of as good flavor as can be
made at any season of the year.-Genessee

Prince Napoleons affianced, the Princess
Clotilde, was born on the I'd of March, l843,
so that she has not yet accomplished her six.
teenth year. The Times correspondent de-
scribes her as rather tall, blonde, with blue
eyes and a piercing glance. She is pious, but
not devotee; somewhat naughty, but full of
benevolence! tolerably well instructed, and
very reserved. She has been educated by the
Marchioness de Robitant, woman of severe
manners, and little too rigorous, perhaps, on
the chapter of etiquette.

One day last week poor, old, WORKOUT
horse fell down in the streets of New York and
broke his leg. His driver embarrassed him,
put truss of hay under his head, and then left
him in the bitter cold of Thursday night and
exposed to the snow storm of the whole of
Friday Pedestrians and policemen saw the
suffering creature, but nobody had sufficient
humanity to shoot or remove him. His means,
says the Express, were piteous to hear, and
his lips were drawn up by the pain he suffered
for thirty six hours before he died.

The New York papers state that William
Patterson, aged 65 years, was found by the
police wandering in the streets, apparently in
an exhausted condition, and clad in raiment
unsuited to the weather. About an hour after
he had been taken to a cell in the station house,
the doorman looked in and found the lodger
dead And German youth, baker by trade,
committed suicide on Friday from destitution,
arising from inability to procure work.

PICKETT, the philosopher. writing to the
STANDARD on the Harpers Ferry affair, says:
The late insurrectionary attempt at Har
per's Ferry has SO filled me with delight,
that have hitherto been unable to pen an
article sufficiently expressive of such pleasu
rable emotions, along with some comments
upon the practical experiment of the Black
Republican party. rejoice in the demon
-tration, because it affords tangible evidence
to the unsuspicious and more obtuse minds of
the South of the ferocious hostility of the
great mass of northern people towards them
and their slavery institutions, and OF the
villainous and desperate measures they will
use to iniure them and theirs; which, of ne
cessity, must arouse the ire of the whole
south, the better cement it, widen the breach
between the sections, and thus earlier con.
summate that glorious and not far distant
event-a dissolution of the Union.

SURGICAL OpERArIoN.-On Thursday last,
DIR. Thompson, of Sonora, says the Union
Democrat, performed an operation on the
head of man named Geo. Sherman, who had
been crazy, and was about being sent to the
Asylum at Stockton. 1t appeared that the
top of the head had been injured at some pre-.
vious time, and DIR. Thompson very sensibiy
concluded to operate upon that part, which
he did by extracting several pieces of the
skull The patient was instantly relieved,
and expressed the greatest surprise that he
should be fouud in the cell of a Jail. lie is
now enjoying as much reason as he ever pos
sessed. 1t is not always that evil results
from taking off the top of the head"

luton of purpose and restless energy, his
fidelity to principle and to friends, command
ed the respect and excited the admiration of
his associates. His sudden death will cast a
gloom over the Senate, as it startled and
shocked the whole country"
