New YORK, Oct. 31.-The Times Washington
special says:
Gen. Sherman had another interview with the
President to-day after the session of the cabinet
at which he accepted the military diplomatic
mission to Mexico, which / stated yesterday had
been rendered to him, he will therefore leave
for Ohio tomorrow and after arranging some
private affairs he will leave for Mexico probably
within 10 days accompanied by Col. Campbell,
minister to that republic.
The administration is gratified at the prompt
action of Gen. Sherman and the belief is conf
IDENTIFY entertained that the presence of an officer
of such rank and distin cton will be sufficient
ind Ication of the earnestness of this government
in the measures it is taking to aid the restoration
of the republic and that it will render the actual
presence of United States troops on Mexican
soil unnecessary, H&

diplomatic He goes to sustain Minister Camp

be reestablished and empowered also with full
discretion as to the use of military power in any
emergency requiring il. The important nature
of this work is thus apparent, and the President
is anxious that it not only shall be in safe and
able hands but that our representatives shall
reach the scene of action as soon as possible.
The name of Gen. Grant was at fret suggest
ed as the proper person for this position of mil.

animal and vegetable matters, IL they do not
cause disease themselves, put the air in a con-
dition to propagate IL. Fortunately these
processes Of decay give us warning, for the
most part by the unpleasant odor given off
Cleanliness Of the house and all Of its sur
roundings should at all times be observed,
but especially when the warm weather hast
ems decay Of all kinds. Prevention in this
case is better than cure, and the removal Of
all offensive matter from about the dwelling
is the drst thing to be thought or An exist
ing smell may be treated in one Of three
ways it may be disguised absorbed, or de-
stroyed. The Disgusting Of smells is not 10
be commended though much Of the so-called
disinfecting ia Of this character. The sprink
ling Of perfumes, the burning Of pastilles and
other substances which give of an odor by
the application Of heat, only substitute one
odor for another, and do nothing towards
actually removing the trouble. Absorbents
are useful in many cases. One OF the most
powerful Of these is charcoal, but dried peat
or muck, or even loamy soil will answer
good purpose. BY the use Of either Of these,
prvies, piggeries, and heaps where animal
matter is being made into manure, can be
kept from giving off offensive odors. Among
the other substances that have been used for
destroying odors chemically, are Chlorine,
Nitric oxide, Permanganate Of Potash, Sui
phate of Iron, Nitrate Of Lead, Chloride Of
Zinc, and others, besides several secret or
patented compounds. OF these there is but
one likely to be employed by the public gem
orally, and that is Chloride in the form Of
what is called Chloride Of Lime. or Bleaching
Powders. 1t is cheap. easily applied, free
from unpleasant after effects, and quite as ef-
fcacious as any other. When sprinkled
about in offensive places, it destroys unpleas-
ant odors as they are generated, and II more
prompt action is desired, it may be dissolved
in water, allowed to settle, and the clear
liquid used. There are other ways for ap.
plying chlorine more thoroughly, but they
are not to be commended for general use.
While this and other disinfectants are OF
great use in producing a wholesome state Of
the atmosphere, medical men doubt if they
possess any considerable efficacy in destroy
ing the poison, or whatever may be the caus-
es ofepidemic and contagious diseases after it
is once utroduced.-Ameriean Agriculturist.

BUTTER FAoToRIEs.-Nothing is more
marked than the present tendency to clas-
si6cation Of labor and pursuits. Formerly a
mans business was like the miscellaneous
stock in country store--a little of every
thing. Now it begins to be recognized that
a man can generally do but one thing best
and most profiably. OF course there will be
exceptions. Within few years it has been
found that the manufacture of cheese could
be carried on much more pro6tably by mutu-
oil a. sociation, and the farmers of given dis
trict have sold their milk to the manufacture
er The same system has been adopted in
Orange county, N. Y, in regard to butter
lhe farmer sells his milk at price depend
lng on Its quality, to some establiihmenr in
the neighborhood, aud the buyer sends to
market, milk, butter or cheese, according to
the demand The msthod Of raising cream
at one Of these associations is essentially diff
ferent from that which has been hitherto
practiced Mr.. X A. willard, in the Utica
Herald, gives long description Of the
processes pursued at the various establish
ments he has visited, from which we condense
the following:
The pals are twenty-five inches deep and
eight inches in diameter. They are filed
l
top, aud then set in watts through which a
stream Of running water is conducted from
springs. Care is taken not 20 have the sur
face Of the milk in the pals above that OF
the water in the watts. The temperature
of the water desirable is not above sixty
or below forty-eight. AS little Of the sur
face of the cream is exposed to the atmos-
phere as possible, and that atmosphere should
be moist, so that the top Of the cream may
not become dry and thus aeck the butter.
The milk OF one day is left in the spring until
rext morning, when it is taken cut, the cream
dipped off and put Immediately into the
churns. In removing the cream, little
tunnel-.s shaped cup, with long, upright ham
die, is used. 1t is gently pushed into the
pals and the cream dipped off. 1t is very
expeditiously effected, aad the milk line cas-
lily determined by the appearance Of the milk.
The cream at this season of the year and in
spring is churned sweet. In summer the
cream is dipped into the same pals and re-
turned to the spring, and kept there until il
sours. As fast as the cream is removed, the
milk in the pals is emptied into the watts for
making skim milk cheese.
