CRIMINAL CoURT-Judge Fisher.-Yesterday
afternoon, the Court commenced the trial of
the case Of Adolphus Barker indicted for the
murder OF the negro "Sam," by pushing him
off the wharf into the river. Barker, it will
be remembered, was convicted u short time
ago on this charge, and was granted a new
trial.
Great difficulty was experienced in obtaining
jury, and the whole regular panel was ex-
hausted before one juror was obtained. Twenty
six talesmen were summoned, and this not
completing the jury, it was found necessary
this morning to summon twenty lone others,
and the following were eventually sworn as
Jurors in the cause, viz Charles g. Anderson,

THE RESISTANCE TO THE CONSUMPTION
IN NEW YORK CITY

lN iNhh VII .
The telegraph brings the intelligence that
the political teachings of Wood & Co-the I'M
scrupulous demago CUES who would peril the
fate OF nation Tor the advancement Of their
personal fortunes-have borne their lecitimate
fruit and bloody attempt has been made by
an armed mob 10 resist the draft in New York
city. squad of soldiers sent to suppress the
disturbance were dIsarmed and beaten. and
some fifteen policemen, including Superin-
tendent Kennedy, were killed, it is reported
The telegraph wires eastward were cut by the
mob and trains prevented from leaving in the
same direction, and other acts of disorder had
been committed.
New York city cannot afford to permit mob
law to prevail there twenty -four hours. Her
business interests alone make it imperatiyely
necessary that any such scheme OF anarchy
shall promptly be put down, and we are con-
fident that before this time the supremacy Of
law and order has been emphatically reasserted
in the great commercial metropolis.
Deplorable as the affair is in some aspects of
the case, we are not sure but that it will result
in coed. 1t must serve certainly, in New FORK,
to unmask the heartless demagognes who, in
the name OF peace and good will to the rebels in
arms, incite ignorant men to assemble in mob
and shoot down their own neighbors.
The easy going citizens of New York. who
treated the mischeycus utterances of Wood i
Co. with such philosophic indifference as
<'amounting to nothing" mere sspoliticaI
clap-trap," find that they do amount to some.
ting; and that municipal as well as national
safety demands that the traitorous demagogues
shall have no more rope, unless, indeed, that
rope takes the shape of Il halter!
SO far from hindering the enforcement of the
draft, we believe further tat this affair will
serve to bring ont such an expression of public
sentiment on the right side, as Will have the
happiest effect in forwarding the labors of the
enrolling officers throughout the country.
At this suspicious juncture, with Lees de-.
teated army straining every nerve to get out Of
harms way, and with the Southern Confed-
eracy cut in twain by the capture of Vicks-
burg, with the Legislature of North Carolina
already moving to bring that State ba ok to the
old Union, and with Louisiana, Texas, Arkan-
sas, Georgia and Virginia taking steps in the
same direction. and the hitherto tabooed word
demonstration" whispered froia length to
breadth of the bubble Confederacy, with all
these encouraging facts in view, we have no
idea that the Governments requirement of suf-
hcient men TO finish up the good work at once
and forever will be defeated by any such at
tempt to resist furnishing the insignificant
quota REQ uircd of New York city.

How Much Hay to winter a Cow

In seasons Of extreme scarcity of fod-
der, like that of 1862 and 1868, the
above is an important question. Many
farmers are apt to overrate their amount
Of forage and run short before spring
opens, at great loss in the extra price
of hay and increased waste and expense
in moving it. This mi ght in a measure
be obviated if farmers were careful in
estimating their crop Of hay during a
series Of years, and noting how much a
given space Of barn room would carry
through the winter. 1t is variously es-
timated from l / 2 to 2 tons co winter
COW. Some years since [ weighed
the hay for fourteen cows for four con-
secutive weeks, in the months of March
and April. 1t averaged twenty pound
per day. The hay was good article
of timothy with sprinkling Of clover.
Allowing the time Of feeding six months,
or $50 days, 5000 pounds would win
ter COW. Last spring, in the months
Of March and April, I tried the expert
ment of measuring hay in well settled
NOW, and found that twenty COWS ate
100 cubic feet per day, equal to 400
pounds.-Cor. albany (.E r. Cul-

Horse Stable Floors.

On this subject, the Ono Farmer
says: MAO a"1 ~
As the winter approaches, the pru-
dent horseman will look to the condition
Of his stables, that they may bein order
to receive his stock when they can no
longer be left to range upon the fields.
Where a good, firm and dry footing can
be secured, it is better to have an earth
floor than to stand the horse on planks.
We were particularly pleased with the
stables of the Ladd brothers, of Jeifer-
son county. during our visit to that
place. The brothers Updegraf have
also their stable bottoms Of earth, which
on their limestone hillsides is firm and
dry. VIM. II. Ladd has a nice smooth
bottom to his horse stable and sheep
yard. made from quarry waste, packed
Ikea macadamized road, and SO &C.
mented with its own dust as to defy
water or horse-shoes from penetrating
it. With an earth floor, horses need
less bedding than if compelled to stand
upon planks. Speaking Of bedding,
reminds us of the fact that in this sea-
son Of scsrcity Of fodder it will be well
to look out for bedding other than
straw, which can be used for fodder.
For this purpose the best material is
saWdust.

Best Time to Feed Grain.

Noon is preferred to morning for this
purpose by a correspondent of the
Country Gentleman, for three rea-
sons: First, because at noon, their ap-
petites are partly satisfied, and there
fore the stronger ones will crowd the
weoker ones less than they would do in
the morning second, because the sheep
will eat the coarser fodder better before
eating grain than afterwards and,
third, because, by eating at noon, the
grain will be better mingled with the
coarser fodder already swallowed, and
be more likely to rise with their cuds
for thorough mastication, by which the
greatest amount Of nutriment will be
extracted from given amount Of food.
