The selection of breeding of the very
best mich cows and the proper manage
ment of them and of everything con-
nected with the dairy, are matters of
such importance that too much atten-
ton cannot he given to them. There is
no use in attempting to keep milch COWS
with profit on inferior pastures, where
weeds and coarse grasses occupy the soil.
The land must be in good heart, the
grasses of the best quality and the water
rs pure as possible 1t has been fire.
quentlynremarkcd that even on the best
pastures, cows which are compelled to
drink muddy, stagnant water never pro-
duce good quality of butter.
The large quantity of inferior butter
which is always found glutting the mar
kets is a pretty fair indication that there
is screw loose in the management of
the dairy. 1t is probable that in some
diaries all the screws are loose-the cows
are not suited for the purpose for which
they are kept; they have not sufficient
pasture nor good water; they are wor-
ried by being driven from the pasture at
rapid rate; they are annoyed by reck-
less, irritable, noisy mixers. The milk
house is too small, or too hot; has not
sufficient ventilation, and is not kept
sufficiently clean. The cream is not
taken off when the milk il 'ripc,' and
it is left to stand too long before churn-
ing. The churning process is performed
too quick or too slow; the buttermilk is
not worked out of the butter, although
the latter may have been made soapy by
injudicious handling. TO finish all, an
inferior quality of salt is used, ana the
butter packed in unsuitable vessels

Mr. j. Harris says in the Amortcan
Agriculturist, that "clover is unques-
tiOnably the great renovating crop of
American agriculture. A crop of clover,
equal to two tons of hay, when plough
ed under will furnish more ammonia to
the soil than twenty loads of straw
made manure, drawn out fresh and wet
in the spring, or than twelve tons Of our
ordinary barn-yard manure" He, how
ever, thinks it nearly as we'll to make
the clover into hay feed it out, and
carefully save the manure,-that is,
there will be little loss in the value of
the fertilizer, and may be profit from
the feeding.

SUMMER MANURE.-If cows are var
ded or stabbed, very large quantity of
manure is saved. We are too apt to look
upon the manure crop as the harvest of
the winter. With reasonable fore
thought and diligence the manure heaps

takes place much more rapidly; hence ::
accumulations Of vegetable matter,
fresh, or in form of muck and peat, if
composted with stable manure, ashes
or lime, very rapidly ferment, and ripen
into hOmOgencOusness, ready for use in
the autumn.
Swine are widely employed as the
summer manure makers, and they are
worth so much more as rooters than
"tamed," that it is not worth while to
"ring" or "tame" them, until they are
penned to fatten. Confine them where
they may have conveniently, sods,
weeds and all sorts of green rubbish
thrown to them to work over. If upon
the manure of other stock, encourage
diligence by scattering occasionally
handfuls of corn about the heap. If
muck or sods are used in the compost,
swine will often tread it so hard as to

MISCELLANEOUS.
A SIGNIFICANT STEP.

The House of Representative took O
step yesterday, under the lead of Mr.
"Thaddeus Stevens, Of the most extraor-
dinary character. The papers and EVIL
dence in the impeachment matter were
taken from the Committee on the Judici-
ary, to which such subject would nat
uralIy and appropriately belong under
the rules of the House, and given to the
Committee ON Reconstruction, with
"leave to report at any time" Why the
first committee was thus discredited and
reflected upon, we cannot tell, unless it
was because several of it's leading Repub-
Hcan members had heretofore publicly
declared that they considered that they
were acting in the case not as party of
interested partisans, bnt were sitting iu-
dicially, and bound to decide according
to the evidence. Messrs. Wilson and
Woodbridge might, perchance, continue
firm as well as upright; and if so, they
would prove as terrible an Construction"
as Andrew Johnson himself. aE
Accordingly, the conspirators turned
their back upon this able committee, and
sent the case to the Committee on Recon-
struction. Why this last committee was
selected none can doubt. A verdict
from them may be predicted with as
much certainty as the rising or the set
ting of the sun. That committee COM
prises at least four of the bitterest and
most INSCRIPTIONS Radical partisans in
the House, viz: Messrs, Stevens, Boutwell,
Bingham and Farnsworth. One of these
Mr.. Bingham, once pitted himself against
Mr.. Thad. Stevens; but since sickness has
robbed the latter Of the post of active
leadership, Mr.. Bingham has been ambi-
tious for the vacant place. and to earn.
it, seems ready to go all lengths. Any
moderation heretofore exhibited seems
to have been rather Of rivalry than of
conservative or just temper of mind.
Two Democrats are on the committee
-Messrs. Brooks, of New York, and
Beck, Of Kentucky-and Mr.. Hulburd,
of New York, a Republican, who has
once or twice exhibited proofs of an in
dependent spirit. But. looking at the
peculiar composition of this committee,
the ominous resolution of yesterday, and
the inexorable necessity of revolution
ary party to move ON in it's destructive
career, we think the finding of the COM
mittee may be anticipated as well as if it
were already published. The indica-
tions new are that the present body of
heated and violent pastisans in Congress
are about to make their boldest and
most fearful experiment on the patience
of the country, which has endured them
so long-these Jacobins hoping, we doubt
not, that the people do not care enough
about their Government and Constitution |
to make a struggle, or risk anything for
their preservation against the regular
army, welded by General Grant.
