Change of Food for Cattle.

Nature seeks variety, and with almost as great
pertnacIty she insists progression.
The continual use of salt food by man produces
scurvy, while the entire absence of either salt or
animal food produces other classes of disease, and
refuses to build upan organism capable OF enduring
disease
ALI those things which, by analysis an animal is
found to contain, must OF necessity form part of its
food it cannot be perfect as organism there
fore, one kind of food can produce perfect an
animal, developing all its functions equally, and a
variety is distinctly called for. The very instinct of
an animal shows this fact The cattle breeders of
England can scarcely be said to have succeeded I'M
til after the introduction of the various crops
and still we find many cattle breeders in America
who have raised roots at all and who continue
to feed their animals on hay and corn alone The
same area of land used by herd of mich cows for
pasture, when appropriated 10 proper variety of
crops, will cause them to furnish thirty per cent
more milk, and IF better quality, than when they
are confined to the use of or two kinds of food
only. For the same reason that horses flourish best
when travelling undulating country, rather
than wnen perambLlatlng the plains, viz: That
other sets OF muscles are brought into action when
they leave the dead level, and thus single set OF
muscles is not called upon to bear the whole fatigue
so with the variety of food; their digestive func
tiOns in turn appealed to- and all the constitu-
ents required by the body turn furnished SO
that healthy result is the consequence Its true
that cows fed carrots give better milk in winter
carrots alone they lose their highest Of health
Carrots have value far beyond that which can
be attributed to the mere nutriment they contain !;
for, in addition to what they furnish il this way,
they contain quantity OF pecuc acid, and this
ries the property Uf geatinlzng the vegetable and
animal held i'll solution and thus aiding the

One OF mr., FselI,g Kentualyv sunnorters


One of Mr. BelI's Kentucky Supporters.
Judge GEORGE ROBERTSON, fossilized but "highly
respectable old gentleman Of Kentucky, some time
since wrote letter to the Louisville Journal in IA
vor of BELL and EVERETT The Paducah Herald
quotes from the record Of this gentleman to show
how far he has dipped into the views held by the
FreesOiers, and how far he is entitled to the posi-
ton of adviser to Southern men, In an address 20
the Legislature Of OHIO, recommending Mr.. Clay to
that body as candidate for President, he uses the
following language:
We apprehend that no mistake could be greater
than that whichw would impute TO him (Mr. Clay) the
wish TO extend the acknowledged evil of slavery /;
for we persuaded that no one entertains a
stronger sense Of its mischief than he does, or a
moro ardent desire by all prudent and constitutional
means, 10 ex1rpste it from our lsnd.'
This was what he said about Mr.. CLAY, and he
evidently conveys the idea that these views were
also his own But he did Lot leave his own views
open to doubt as to the power of Congress over
slavery. He expressed them very fully. and it will
be seen that he is nearly as good Black Republi-
can as LINCOLN, and really ought to join the party
He said
Congress, as long as it shall choose to legislate
for any Territory may iaterdict the introduction of
slavery as domestic institution Although, there
fore, Congress may emancipate slaves in any of the
Territories Of the United States where it exists the
exercise of that power is subject TO the condition
chat any owner who withholds his consent to the
at. shall be paid the value of his slave slaves
emancipated against his will
This is the position of Judge ROBERTSON. and natu.
rally enough he falls into the support of BELL and
EvERETT.
