A MAeHINE FOR MILKING Cows

A MAeHINE FOR MILKING Cows
We mentioned some time since, as
the latest invention of this ingenious
age. "a maebine fer milking cows.
Saveral Of the members Of the Phil
aasIphia Agricultural Society wit-
messed it. operation few days slnce,
and were highly pleased with TIE
machine" Ths Ledger gives the
following description of the lnven'
ton and the way it works:
The mashine issi mpls, and easily
worked by children rs we'll as oy
adults. 1t consists of two distlno'
sincle-actisg psmps, made in the
fora Of tin basins, placed with thsli
bottoms a little distance apart
Each pump qas rubber hssd drawn
over the end OF the basin, and turned
in. and TO each pump sra attached
two metallic tsat-cups. by elastic
Joints. so as to fs the distances a
mart of teats in different cows. III
the bottom Of each pump is sin
gle valve, which closes when the sue
lion is produced, and opens to dis
charge the milk into the pail, Wher
the vacuum ceases. As The RUBBER
heads are drawn out by the levers, {
a vacuum is produesd which caused
tina milk TO flow into the pump
when they return to their positions
again the milk passes ous throug'
the valves, and all pressure on INT
teats ceases, thus producing 2 remit
ting suction 10 imitation OF the nat
ural suction Of the calf By the us'
of these machines twelve quarts o
milk can be taken from a COW 10 sW'
minutes. A number of COWS wer'
mt in the stable and MIXED cut will

islac,ion of those who witnessed To-

ed the matter some two years ago, and post
master Capen pressed it upon the attention of
the department at Washington. The presi-
dents of the several railroads concerned, hold
a meeting, this evening, to discuss the project
and come to decision in regard to it, We
hope their decision will be favorable, for the
proposed night train will be of very great ad-
vantage to business men, and a great conven,
fence to others.

that he shall be sent to Soldiers Home" for
recreation.
We hear it stated, on authority that leaves
no room for doubt. that arrangements have at
length been made for consolidation OF the
entire opposition to the republican party in
this state The result has not been unexpect-
ed in intelligent political circles, and the only
reason why it has been SO long delayed, is the
uncompromising stand against it which was
taken by Mr. Dickinson and his friends imme-
diately after the opening of the presidential
canvass.--NeU York World.
The Newburyport Herald says the com::.it-
tee of the sixth congressional district have

will probably be no opposition TO Mr.. Alley,
and we hope there will be none to John G.
Whittier for elector.

The fourth annual exhibition of horses at
Springfield opened Tuesday morning with
great ecldt. The entries covered upwards of
five hundred valuable and high blooded ami.
mails. The grand cavalcadc moved at 10
O'Clock, and comprised every variety of excel
lence in horses and beauty of equpage. In
the list of farm and draft horses there were
five entries in pairs and five single There
were twelve mares with foal by their side,
among which were the following
Venus" Calvin D. Nourse of Shrewsbury raised
in Massachusetts, Nonpareil, 1000 pounds, years,
"Pocahontas, R, S. Denny of Clappville, raised
in Ohio, 1850 pounds 13 years, 16 hands.
Lady Gay Spanker," James L. Thorndike of New
England Village raised in Burlington, VT, Ham
bletonian, 1850 pounds, u years, l6 hands.
Lovely" j ohm Brooks, Jr., OF Princeton raised
IN Maine, Messenger, 100 pounds, u years, ISL
hands
Nellie Gray" f. S. Fay of southboro, raised in
IA hands.
Lizzie sanford, p Joseph Burnett of southboro',
raised in Massachusetts,, Black Hawk, 1925 pounds,
16 years, 15 hands.
Old "Pocahontas," from the stables of Mr..
Denny, was acknowledged to be the best on
the ground, and Mr.. Nourse's "Venus" was
highly praised. OF the eighteen breeding
m ares, the only two from Worcester county
were Fanny and Jenny" owned by John
Brooks, Jr., of Princeton, both Morgan, and
raised in Vermont. The chief and most at
tractive animal of the class was "Rosie," own.
ed by Count de Beerski, Russian gentleman
resident in Virginia. OF stations three years
old and under four there were twenty -four
entries. "Black Bird" owned by Joseph
Harker of Brooklyn, was first in applause. Mr..
Denny's horse 'John Alden" and Mr.. Bur-
nett's Paxton" were much admired. The
entries from this county were as follows =
Humboldt Luther Crawford of oakham. raised
in Barre, Morgan and Black Hawk, 1895 pounds, 8
years
John Alden Il. S. Denny of Clappyille, raised
in Massachusetts, Black Hawk and Morgan Taylor
white Oak S. Higgins of West Boylston raised
in Canada, Bayard breed, 800 pounds, years, IA
Paxton" Joseph Burnett of southboro, raised
in Massachusetts, Black Hawk and Messenger, 1000
pounds 8 years, 10 hands.
The Republican, which gives a very full
account of each days proceedings, says the
best judges of horse flesh say they have never
seen finer exhibition, especially of young
horses. The old steeds come back bringing
their sheaves with them, and introducing the
coming generation of horses to popular favor.
The same authority, with exuberant conf
dence, anticipates that two or three more of
these exhibitions will establish a kind of horse
aristocracy,-an arstocracy of Hampton Park.
