How that inevitable reliable colorrd man is

gathered from the following from the sal,l,

9 The fact is, owing to the difficulties put

is impossible to get reliable accounts of the
result of the battles about Nirhinonr', the loss

That a prstilence is dreaded in r edmond
just now. will be comprehended from the fol-

/" The health OF the city. we fear. will suffer

Agrifnltural.

PACKING BUTTER.-.MeSsrs. Editors:
chcerfully comply with your request in
giving such information in relation to
packing and keeping butter through, the
Summer season as am competent to do,
giving you the method that has proved
to be most successful with US:
/. In the first place you ask in regard
to the churning; we use dog power,
having the temperature in warm weather
about 50 degrees Fab, which gives tho
butter a good solid consistency.
2. When the butter comes, it Is re-
moved and washed with cold icc-watef
until the buttcr-milk is all removed.
5. 1t is then sailed, about one ounce
Of salt to pound of butter, worked in
thoroughly, and set in cool place for
twcnty-four hours, when it is worked,
just sufficient to remove all the butter
milk.
4. 1t is then packed in the frkin,
and covered tight so as to exclude the
air.
.. When the Grkin is filled, then put
a cloth over the butter, put on good
covering of salt, and then pour on water,
which makes a brine. We keep it thus
covered until it goes to market, it being
the only way we could ever keep dairy
perfectly sweet through the season.
These rules, strictly observed, | will
warrant never to fail; if the butter is
properly made:
We use good white oak frkins.-
Before putting in the butter fill the fir
kins with cold water to soak three or
four days. 4 handful of salt thrown in
will make them all the better. When
we get ready to put the butter in the
frkm, we rub the inside all over thor
nughly with salt, which forms brine
between the frkin and butter.
All the salt used about butter III any
form should be good dairy SAL, DIS there
is more or less lime in other salt, which
renders it unfit for butter.
Good soft wa'er is also essential, us
hard limy water is very objec ionable.
If what | hare written in this short
letter is not sufficiently comprehensive;
let me know, and will give you moro
comprehensive and detailed statement
with regard to any particulars that you
may wish to inquire about; DIS it always
affords me pleasure to communicate to
others anything in tile liue of agricultural
pursuits that may Jc advantageous to

FEEbixG Oars TO HoRsEs'-The
same quantity Of oa's gwen 20 horse
produces different effects according to tho
time they are administered: haze made
the experiments on my own horses, and
have always observed there is in the dung
quaint y of oats not digested when I
purposcly gave them water after feed
of oats. This is, then, decidedly great
advantage in giving horses water before
corn. There is another bad habit, that
of giving corn and hay on their arrival
to the sable after hard work. being
very hungry, they eat eagerly, and do
not masticate; the result is, it is not
so well dgcsted and not near so nutfl-
tious. When horse returns from Work,
perspiring and out of breath, he should
be allowed to rest time; then given
little hay, half an hour aftcrward water
and then oats by this plan water may
be given without risk of cold; as the oats
act as stimulent.-- ....

Is to say; here Is an unlawful rebellion
against just and regular au,hori "
Which side should England have chosen,
Alas had England chosen, boldly and
freely, as she ought, the side of justice
and right. " the civil war would have
been prevented, or at least abridged, and
the recollection of the friendly hand thus
stretched out wonld never have been
ctiaccd from the minds of the American
people" On the contrary, what has
happened The American who cx-
pccted much from England, have expert
cnced bitter disappointment: their
friendship has been wounded, and their
confidence. * Nay, this conf
dcncc, though rudely met at first, persc-
vcred in hoping good things from Eng
land wi, III a touching obs,inancy.
How was this hope met! With icy
snng-troid, the English nation signifcd
10 America that Englishmcn cared no
thing for her success in the war; that
the flag of slavery, displayed in the
South, did not trouble En- Gland and
that no EnglishnIan would gricvc over
the dismcmbcrmcnt of the United
s atcs."
De Gasparin says that this was the
reply of the nation through its chief
organs but tina it was not the reply of
the people, after all. How is this to bc
accounted for " There are tuo nations
in England one, political, selfish, un-
prncipled the other, moral, just, phil
antropc, religious. The course of
events is generally in the hands of tic
frs class; it is only when some hagran.
wrong occurs, that the second class
wakes up. When Ii docs, its power is
irresistible" This power is now wax
ing up, De Gasparin thinks, on the
American question ; bu. yet he thinks
It's awakening is slow, and enc great
object of bis book IS o has lis activity.
The evening papers announce to-day
that Pcrsigny-is in London, for the pur-
pose of has ening an agreement between
England and France for intervention III
America. Yesterdays Times has an
article that confirms this statcmcnt.-
That unprncp!cd Journal declares, for
the h undrcdth time, that there must be
a scpar alton, and two republics cs alb
lished instead of one. This has been
the desire of Palncrston, Russell, Clad
stone and Derby from the beginning
this contamination will be welcomed by
the pol'f'col part of the British nation,
even though it be purchased by q hun
drcd years more of slavery for the
negroes, and by the spread of that
de estable and destructive ms tuition
over The whole central terri DRY of
America. Would TO God that the re-
hgions England could see this in time.

Is Constitutional disease, a corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated,
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it
pervades tho whole body, and may burst out
in disease on any part of it. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there one which it may
not destroy. The scrofulous faint is variously
caused by mercurial disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices. and,
above all, by the venereal infection. What
ever be its origin, it is hereditary i'll the con-
etitution, descending I" from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation )" indeed
it seems to be the rod of Him who says 81
will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon
their children"
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in
the lungs, liver, and internal organs is termed
tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and on
the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor
ruptiOn, which genders in the blood, drpresscs
the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitu-
tons not only suffer from scrofulcus ooIn-
plants, but they have far loss power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases; conse-
qusntly, vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrofulous in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this taint in the
system. Most of the consumption which de-
climates the human family has its origin directly

One quarter of ell our people 4re scraulous; !;
