D e It appeared that Lord VaIdane
had three daughters, besides several
sons. The youngest of these daugh-.
tiers, when just sixteen, had caused
great trouble and distress to her fani-
ly by falling in love with a violinist,
who had come constantine the house
to give one of her. brothers lessons on
his instrument. This had been dis
covered about year before, and had
given rise to great determinations,
and the young lady had shown an
amount OF obstinacy and temper
which had quite alarmed her friends.
so foreign was. it, apparently, to her

her youth, her father determined to
send her to a school kept by an
English lady in a village about fifteen
miles from Brussels, and hoped that a
year or two of entire change and alb

CYRUS W. FIELD.

The final success of the Atlantic Telegraph enterprise, through so many difficulties and discouragements, is. due to the wonderful perseverance and indomitable energy of Cyru: w. Field. He has now the honor of carrying to completion one of the greatest undertaking which man ever conceived.
 Mr. Field is now in his forty year having been born in Stockbrldge. Mass, in 1919. He entered business as a clerk in a New York counting house, but in few years he became the head of a large house where he was eminently successful, retiring in 1853 from active business. He shortly after tur ned his attention to the subject of submarine tele- graphy, in which he interested himself deeply, having for his pet idea the plan of laying ca ble across the Atlantic. With this in view, he obtained from the Newfoundland legislature the exclusive right for fifty years to establish a line Of telegraph from the continent of Amer ica to that island, and thence to Europe In this undertaking he has since been engaged, taking an active part in the construction of the land telegraph in Newfoundland and in i the two attempts to lay a submarine cable between Cape Ray and Cape Breton.
 He then visited England and organized { company for the prosecution of his grea scheme The first attempt was made to bridg. the Atlantic by electricity in 1857. It failed and all of Mr' Fields eloquence was reoniret to prevail upon the directors of the compan, to make another attempt. The history of twt more failures, and another temporary su ccess which made the following failure still more dlsbeartniDg, are we'll known Alter an inter i'm Of seven years, during which time Mir Field has been working energeticalIy for the one object of his ambition, he has made anoth CT trial, and the long sought but ever evasive tr umph has come at last, The two thousand miles of cable are stretched between Ireland and America, and the ocean is crossed with the speed of thought, The name of Field will be placed alongside that of Morse as having made the greatest application of the greatest invention of the age: America and Europe are alike indebted to his perseverance and energy in frequent disaster Hartjord l Courant

Next morning, you'd have wondered How we had to drive the spade! There, in great trenches and holes, (Ah, God rest their poor souls ! We killed some fifteen hundred, Where that last charge was made! Sad enough, must say. No mother to mourn and search, No priest to bless or to pray We buried them where they lay, Without 8 rite of the church. But our Eagle all that day, Stood solemn and still on his perch. 'Tis many a stormy day Since, out of the cold, bleak North, Our great War-Eagle sailed forth To swoop OCT battle and fray. Many and many . day
 Ger charge and storm hath he wheeled, Foray and foughten field, Tramp, and volley, and rattle!- Over crimson trench and turf, Over climbing clouds of surf, Through tempest and cannon-rack Have his terrible pinions whirled- IA thousand fields of battle: A million leagues of foam;) But our Bird shall yet come back, He shall soar to his Eyrie-Home- And his thundrous wings be furled, In the gaze of a gIaddened world, On the Nations loftiest Dome.

ABOUT MILK. WHAT IS TIT

Milk when it is first drawn from the COW is slightly alkaine-its other properties are familiar. It looses this alkaline property after standing few hours it is due to small quantity of soda which is always present Upon standing several hours in shallow dishes cream rises, which if skinned of thoroughly |, aHd the operation repeated two or three times, will remove all oily particles of the milk. If now the milk be warmed, upon the addi- ton of rennet, curd will begin to separate. This, after it has had time to solidify some- what, may be thoroughly removed by strain. ing. The fluid winch remains is not entirely free from curd {; if it be heated gently to boil ing, another portion will seperate from it which was unaffected by the rennet.
 The whey thus prepared contains very little besides mik-sugar in solution. All the curdy substances are not removed and little butter or oily globules still remain, but so pure is it that if it be set aside in warm place few days it will deposit crystals of milk-sugar. If the whey is boiled down or evaporated rapidly, a powlery mass is obtained which is indeed sugar, but by no means as pure as when it crystalizes out from the whey.
 The cream does not consist of pure butter which is oil. but as the oil rises it brings with l it portions of the cheesy matter or cnrd and of the whey, containing sugar also. The butter in purer state is obtained by melting and then carefully straining it, or decanting the | clear oil.
 This, again, is not simple substance, but consists ot solid fat called margarine, and fluid one, oleine, and besides, small quantities of peculiar fat called butyrine. When milk is left standing exposed 10 he air. as already said. it's alkaline property soon disappears, and from this cause the sugar is gradually converted iuto tactic acid by the OK ygen of air this acid combines with the soda as fast as it is formed and so the latter no 1 longer manifests itselc. This same operation, the formation of tactic acid goes on after the alkali has disappeared, though at first more slowly, and after while another effect is ob served. A slight elevation of temperature will cause the milk to curdle, and after while as we all know it will curdle at ordinary tenn peratures. All common acids will produce n similar effect, as may be easily proved by ex- pertinent
 When sour milk not yet fairly curdled, in a bottle or similar vessel, is exposed to tenn perature of about 80 or 90o Fahr., the sugar is converted first into grape sugar and then this is decomposed into alcohol and carbonc acid, This last passes off the same as gas does from working beer or cider. In this op- eraion there is formed certain volatile oils which give the fluid and the alcoholic liquor which is distilled from it a disagreeable flavor to us. but do not prevent it's being favorite beverage among the Tartars who make it from mares and asses milk.

THE AaEs OF CATTLE SHOWN BY THRrR HORNS AND TEETH. Cattle generally have one more wrinkle on their horns than they are years old. Sometimes the first wrinkle will appear when the animal is two years old, sometimes not till it is three years old, it will depend somewhat upon the keeping, good keeping has a tendency to defer thelr coming as well as to render them less visible, and the reverse with bad keeping. If heifers drop their calves at two years old the first wrinkle will then appear if not till three years old, the first wrinkle will not appear till then. and for each year after one wrinkle is added, and general rule to ascertain the age of cattle by their horns is to count the perfect wrinkles and add one winch will in nine cases cut of ten give the correct age of tke animal. ~ 4.'5sf fL h2Hj
 When cattle are about two years old they shsd their small sucking tseth, and two large or broad teeth appear; when they gre three years old two more broad teeth are se9n, nak- ing feur in all, year later they have . full mouth, of all large teeth. af ol

THE DAIRY.

The dairy must, unquestionably, stand in the frst rank as source of profit to the farmer. and upon which the profit of other farming op- erations, las conducted in this state), must in great measure, depend, and that it may be made still greater source of profit than it is at present, by most farmers can, think, be satisfactorily proved.
 For instance, suppose farm capable of pasturing twenty COWS with other necessary stock, with the common course of management the milk from the COWS will make cheese, the weight of which will not exceed forty five pounds, now the COWS in most instances are not what they might, or should be. To make farming protitdble every COW should be good one, producing not less than twenty quarts of milk in day most COWS in yard of twenty fall short of this, ranging from eight to fifteen quarts, which at glance, may be seen to be poor economy, the cost of keeping is the same in both cases the quantity of milk of the good COW twice that of poor one, the difference in the price about one-third.
 After good yard of COWS has been obtain ed, the next thing to look after is the acay Mey are nsi2ked. There is not hing on farm need ing more care and attention than this, yet 1t is oftel done in a loose, careless manner. by faithless help, young, needless, or unpi acticed hands that cannot milk with sufficient dispatch but when we pass yard in hot summers evening and hear the sharp "soh' from the mlker, tired, perhaps, with hard days work, and longing to repose his wearied limbs, we cannot wonder that irresponsible helD should not give that attention to the business of oth- CTS, which the o,cners tkemselves do Dot give to their own.
 Then to make the diary more profitable than it now is, I would propose certain rules
 1st Let every COW be Q good one.
 2d. If possible obtain deep milkeis.
 3d. Have stated time for milking and plenty of it.
 4th. Let every farmer himself see that his milking is well done, or obtain some faithful responsible hand to do his business for him
 Attention to these things, and such as these constitutes profitable farming, and the farmer who does not give it will be heard to say"h can make nothing by farming. .'-P 'n Home stead.
