Water for Mich Cows.

From observation we have long been
satisfied that plenty of water is not only
very essential to tue health of mich cows,
as it is indeed to that of all animals, but
it contributes largely to the flow of milk.
We found that by inviting COWS to
drink large quantities of water, the guam
tity of milk yielded by them could be in
creased several quarts Per day, without
materially injuring its quality; and that
the milk obtained is approximately appor-
toned to the quantity of water drank
Cows which, when stall fed with dry fod.
der, gave only from nine to twelve quarts
per day, at once produced from twelve to
fourteen quarts daily when their food was
moistened by mixing with it from eight
cen to twenty-three quarts per day.
Besides the water taken with the food,
the animals we've allowed to drink at the
same intervals as before, and their thirst
was excited by adding to the fodder a
small quantity of salt. The milk produc-
ed under the water regimen, after having
been carefully analysed and examined as
to its chemical and physical properties,
was adjudged to be of good quality, and
excellent butter was obtained from It,

Attempted Deception.

Our readers have no doubt observed
among our congressional proceedings the
introduction of bill entitled "a bill for
the discontinuance of the freedman's bu-
reau.' This is rascally attempt to de-
ceive the public. The freedman's bureau
has already twice expired by its own linn
itation, and this bill, instead of being enc
to discontinue the bureau, is a bill to con-
tinue it in force till the first of January
Dental election. And even then the bu.
reau is not to be discontinued, as will be
seen by the Synopsis of the bill published
in our congressional proceedings to-day.
The educational department Of the bureau
is to be continued indefinitely, and young
negroes educated at the expense of the
taxpayers of the country. Gen. Howard,
the commissioner, is also to be continued
in Office the balance Of his life. at an enor-
nous salary, while he employs three
fourths of his time in travelling about the
country delivering lectures in favor OF
amalgamation and for the benefit of negro
churches, and attending meetings of the
young mems christian association. This
whole thing is viIlainous imposition upon
the taxpayers, and Howard and his bu-
reau should at once be sent adrift.

If there is anything that has correct in.
stincts, it is woman. She gravitates as
naturally towards right as the needle
points to the pole.
One should comprehend these peculiar
tiles in woman in order to fully appreci-
ate the importance Of the fact that the wo-
men have taken the field in favor Of the
democratic platform. In the Times OF
Monday was an article cmbodying plat
form issued, on behalf of the sex, by Eliz-
abeth Cady Stanton, Mrs. Horace Greeley
Susan B. Anthony, and Abby Hopper
Gibbons, and which takes ground in favor
of state rights, economy in expenditure,
the payment of the 5-20's in legal tenders
the abolition of national banks, and a re-
peal of the income tax.
Such are the views of the women of the
country. They prove that women are nat
urally democrats. They prove that wo.
men are right when left to the guidance
of their instincts.
The only plank in the platform in which
the sex makes an error is in demanding
suffrage for women. This is mistake
The declaration of independence, which
is the foundation of the democratic party
declares all men to be created equal ii
says nothing of women. Hence womeI
are not the equals of men; were they
the declaration Of independence woul'
have mentioned it. Anything not in tn
declaration of independence cannot b.
adopted by the democratic party.
While asserting that women arc no
equal to men, we are not debarred from
asserting their superiority to men. 1t
this superiority which forever prevent
their voting. Democracy holds to tn
equality of those to whom is given the bal
lot.
But. while democrats are, to their i'm
mense chagrin. forbidden to admit tina

The History of Mouthful of Bread"
New York: Harper 4 Brothers; New Or
leans, Krull & Dickey Canal street.
Cloth, PIP. 1858. By Jean Mace, popular
French author.
Some idea of the excellence and popularity
of this little work may be inferred from the
fact that the original lin French) had
already reached its seventeenth edition in
Paris in 1866, and had been adopted by the
University Commission at Paris among their
prize books.
The object of the author has been 10 pre-
sent the great leading anatomical and physl !
illogical facts of life, in way to make them
entertaining and comprehensive to the
young and the unlearned. This object the
author has accomplished with great ingenu-
ity and skill, and although the work is ad-
dressed in form to young children, there are
few adults among those who have not re-
oeived special training in this direction who
would not derive both pleasure and profit
from its perusal.
How many graduates of the schools of
this city, for example, where the study of
physiology is totally neglected, can speak
l1Jelllgeully dOOuJ the composition ana
uses OF the blood or of the stomach, the
liver, the heart, the lungs, and other organs
of the body, their uses and processes, and
the laws ofrhealth pertaining to them. Yet
no one who can not so speak can be said ~
possess even a common school education o
anything like completeness. The volume
before us-beautifully printed and bound
offers really wonderful amount of iuforma-

tual friend B. S Small, who was killed near
Mr.. Grayson's place on Bouf Prairie. He
was on his way to New Orleans. ard stayed
at Grayson's all night on the tLirt entL Of
July. The next morning he started TOW ard
Starts Landing, and at the lower enc of
Grayson's field firing was heard by Zach.
Earls and upon going that way he saw at a
distance two men riding off, but could not

found Immediately afterward shot in eight
or nine places with pistols. He was sent
out that day to Winnsboro, and buried the
next day with Masonic honors. He was not
robbed. His watch was found upon his
! person. A little less than a year ago
you and 1 were informed, as you
remember that certain persons had

Acquittal Of a MurdeTer-Ar Of an
AssaIled Party.
Some days since We reported the fact that
Captain B. H. Orr, formerly of this city, but
more recently q member OF the Mississippi
constitutional convention, was murdered
by the editor OF the Handsboro Democrat,
P. K, Mayors, at Pass Christian.
Mayors, it viii be remembered, was sent
on his way from PISS Christian to Missis
sippi City by justice Of the peace, who
kindly assisted him to get ont of the hands
of justice. r,-.
At Handsboro Mayors went through the
form of surrendering himself to the civil
authorities.
In the meaLtime young Orr, who was
shot at by Mayors and who in turn dis
charged his revolver at Mayors, and lodged a
ball in his arm, was arrested on charge of
assault with intent to kill and committed
to prison. This gave a'clear field to Mayors
who was subsequently examined before two
Justices of the Peace.
The District Attorney was in.
capacitated from being in attend.
ance at the examination, but there
were five lawyers present to defend the
accused. Mayors, of course, was acquitted,
the principal witness against him, whose
testimony would convict him of murder,
having been arrested at the instigation of
Mayors friends, and other witnesses against
him being too much intlmldated to appear
and testify. The end is not yet, and the
murderer will receive meIited punishment
