A German named John A. Heyl, living

is no new thing but what Mr. Heyl claims
as the new feature in his invention is st r.
/ cock combined with an eleetris battery, by
means of which the operator at any central
point can turn the gas off or on, at his
pleasure, at the same lime igniting it with
the electric battery. The stop-eoek is the
original feature of the invention, any num-
Der of which can be operated at the same
time by piece of platina wire. In case

again of its own accord from the heat which
is retained in the wires, without any cleo

CESSATION OF ANIMALs.-M. Tester, 0ho
for period of many years, was superin-
dent of Experimental Farm established un-
der an auspices Of the French Government
at Paris, found that of $50 mares, the
shortest period was 287, and the longest 4l9
days-exhibiting the surprising difference
of one hundred and thirty-two days! An
other author observes that the most conclu-
sive and satisfactory experiment on record,
is that instituted by order of Lord Spencer,
in which the period of CESSATION in no less
than 764 COWS, was accurately ascertained.
From this it appears that the shortest period
in which live calf was produced was 22O
day; but no calf produced under 242 days
could be reared. The longest period of ges-
tation was given in the Journal Of the Royal
Agricultural Society it appears that al4 COWS
calved before the 2S4th day, and 80 calved
after the 285th day, so that the probable pc
Rod of CESSATION in this useful animal may
be fixed at 284 or 285 day. The average
period of CESSATION in the eve is given by a
German author, as 161 days and that Of the
sow as 143 Ia'1- - Ha3E

BARoMETERs At recent meeting OF
the N. Y Farmers Club, the value of ba-
rometers was somewhat extensively. dis
cussed. Among other speakers, Scion Rob-
inson said he would state it as his firm,
honest belief that barometer was OF no
possible practical utility to a farmer, 1t
will sometimes Indicate the approach OF
wind, and sometimes that may be accom-
panied by rain.
Mr.. Bartlett conceded in these views as
expressed by Mr. Robinson and suggested
as practical test of the value of barome-
tiers that farmers should communicate the
result of their observations, whether they
were able by their use to foretell the state
of the weather days or hours in advance.
Col Henry said the laws which governed
the barometer are not tho7e which always
produce rain but wind /; that the barometer
indicates the app zach Of nothing more.
There is record in tie Fulton Bank of this
city which sha~s that the quantity Of rain
in the period. of three years through a long
series, is al.no.r id4ntically the same.
S. Edward TndI said, | have studied
barometer m,stl I've years, and would now
give more for any ordinary, cheap, rain
indicator glan ! would for a barometer
Mr.. Todd gave several cases in which farm
ers had propou9,ed the barometers useless
as a means Ct tore'elling rain.

lie EUROPEAN FINANCIAL NEWS IN
New YORK. The New York CORES
pondence of the 22d Of the Philadel-
phia Ledger says that financial
circles bear up under the European
alviccs much better than could rca-
sonably DC expected At first every
body was paralyzcd by the fragmen-
tary character of the Halifax tele-
grams, which described the culmina-
tion of the panic, but said nothing
about the causes which immediately
produced it; but the arrival of the
preceding steamer, this morning,
made everything clear, and it was
seen that the trouble was the result
mainly OF the French Emperor's
speech to the workmen of Auxerre.
The address here, us in England, is
accepted rs q proof that if war
really breaks out between Italy and
Austria, France is not to be a passive
spectator. Business men having Eu-
ropean connections are arranging
their affairs accordingly.
