seS A correspondent Of the Ohio
.Culhrator says: in your excellen1
hints on house cleaning, in last number
was selection from some exchange
which says that the. very best method Of
cleaning wall paperis to sweep of The
dust, and then rub the surface with stale
bread. This may be one Of the best
ways, but it is not first best, as they
say at the county fairs. can clean
wall paper just as nice, with less than
half the time and labor, by taking a
quantity Of wheat bran, say two quarts
at time, and enclosing it in piece of
thin, open flannel cloth-so that the
bran will work through--and rubbing it
with this, shifting and shaking up the
bundle once in while to keep the sur
face fresh.
Another advantage in this rubber is,
that it can be fastened on to broom or
other handle, and then YOU can reach the
toy Of the wall without getting on a
chair or bench L you haze no. flannel
suitable, piece, of ,strainer cloth or
such like will answer. With this appa-
ratus, wall paper that is badly smoked,
can be restored in ashort time, so as to
look almost as good as new. . Grease
spots can be considerably improved BY
first rubbing them with chalk, and then
laying over them several thicknesses of
brown paper, and pressing ON a hot flat
iron. 90

Cattle Diseases-Remedies.
HORN ALL.

appetite, giddiness, failure Of flesh, the
horn generally feels cold. The head
and not the horn merely is diseased.
Boring is generally Of no use, and can
only give temporary relief where there
is pressure in the horns. Hornless
COWS have it sometimes. It generally
occurs to animals in low condition, with
deranged digestive organs. I'he best
remedies are to keep them in warm
shelter, and give warm, nourishing and
stimulating food. If the animal should
happen to be in high condition, feed
lightly. Most Of the remedies have
their reputation because they did not
preuent natural recovery.
GAIGET OR GAZING OF BAG.
Let the calf suck, after having drawn
part Of the milk; and if there is dan
ger of matter forming, rub the udder
with equal parts of goose oil and hot
drops. If painful, wash with weak lye.
1t is very important always afterwards
to milk very clean. Avoid high or
stimulating food.
HovEN.
Occasioned by eating too much fresh
clover or green food. The preventive is
caution in turning into fresh pastures,
allowing but short time at first. In
mild cases, cure may be effected by a
quart Of saleratus water; in severe and
threatening ones, penknife must be
thrust into the paunch through the skin,
two or three inches forward Of the hip
bone.
.a@ FOUL IN THE FOOT.
Cause by standing long in filth, may
be cured by removing to dry, clean
place, washing with soap, then with
chloride of lime, and applying curriers'
oil. Washing with salt and water is
useful. -
Wash the skin, night and morning,
with decoction Of ? ounces Of lobelia
seeds in 1 quart Of boiling water, after
standing 2 hours apply with sponge.
SORE TEATS. ~
Always wash with water before milk
ing, or after calf-sucking-this is often
sufficient. If more so, apply equal
parts Of lime water and linseed oil.
CHoKED CATTLE.
May be relieved, when the obstruction
is high, by thrusting the arm at full
length down and Selling it with the fin
gers. ! TO prevent the animal biting
dangerously, pass the arm through a
wheel box OF clevis, held firmly in the
mouth; or still better, through wood
en- box, made on purpose, with project
ing ends to hold by. If far down, the
obstruction may be pushed down with a
flexible stick with q round soft knob.
TO PREVENT A.Cow SUCKING HERSELF.
Thrust hickory stick, s inches long
and half an inch in diameter, through a
slit made in the nese, SO that the stick
may project each way horizontally. IF
the stickis little smaller at the centre
1t will not come out fuckers In
nual Register.

THE CANADIAN FEDERATION
The scheme Ootern,ined on.

QUEBEC, October l0-Aner q long discussion
the Canadian Federation has been decided on.
lis main principals arranged, only details await
settlement The great difficulty was the proper
toDate representation Of the colonies in the
Upper House
Ii is now decided that Acadia, viz, Nova Sco-
tia, New Brunswick and Prince Edwards Island,
is TO have twenty -four members, Of whom eleven
are for Nova Scotia, ard ten for New Brunswick,
and three for Prince Edwards Island. New
touuOlaud is TO have four, and Upper aud Lower
Canada twenty-fOur each Total, seventy-siX.
These are TO be selected from among the exist
ing members Of the Upper HOus es by the Grown,
which are to fill up vacancies occurring by death.
Representation in the Lower House of the
Federal Legislature is to he according 70 popula-
tiUn, periodically realransed.
Tie Constitution will be such that the chief
power will reside in the Central Legislature. The
Provinces will have few separate rights.
II is decided that tho whole scheme shall be
submitted to the existing Parlinments in all tho
colonies without a direct reference TO The people,
which is n very summary measure, rs none Of
The Pariaments were elected with reference to
this question. 1t is believed that special sessions
will be held.
The Local Legislatures will not necessarily be
alike in their constitution. There is no decision
as yet whether the Local Governor shall be nomi-
rate or elected. This point will likely be left
to the Imperial Government.
1t is believed that Ottawa will be the seat of the
Federal Legislature. The Newfoundland dele
gates leave to-day; the others stay for week tc
arrange details.
The only difficulty remaining is rs to the con.
sttuiion and power Of the Federal Judiciary. The
| question as to the militia or army to be main
tanned by the colonies will likely be settled by
convention with England
| q Bon. John A. Macdonald has been the leading
| man in the conference. His views have beer
| ADOPTED in almost all cases. Mr. Gait and Mr
| Cartier are also much looked mp to.
Several grand entertainments await the dele
| gates in Quebec, Montreal, ana Toronto. Tn
| Governor General and the Speaker of the Uppe
| House give balls here. 1t is thought the who'll
scheme will be made public at the Montrei
4 dinner.

WAmINoToN, October 2O.-Information has
reached here Of a deed of most iendish blrbarity,
perpetrated by Moseby's gang about o'clock on
Wednesday morning.
guerilla party, some five hundred strong,
visited Annandale and Falls Church. AT the lat.
ter place they seized Northern settler, named
Reid, quiet, inofens,vc man, and taking him
into the wosds, first shot him in cold blood, and
then cut his throat from ear to ear.
Mr.. Reed was member Of the home guard,
and the guerillas sworo TO murder all Of tho
guard they might capture.
A negro was shot by them at the same time,
and left for dead but the ball glanced on his
skull, and he WAS found alive.
This gang Of miscreants stole the horses be-
longing to the hospital at Falls Church, and
committed numerous deeds of wanton mischief
there.
Al Annandale they captured four pickets be-
longing to the 10th New York Cavalry, dragged
them ~ the woods, and cut their throats.
The scoundrels alleged in excuse for these cold
blooded murders that some Of their gang had
been badly treated by the Union troops
