Butter Factories in New York

The New York Tribune says
butter factories are rapidly increas.
ing in number in the State OF
New York. Water.power gener-
ally determines the site, though
steam is generally preferred to ga
ter power. A cold and copious
spring is well-nigh indispensable.
A. large resetvoir- like cellar is dug
in the ground and tightly vailed
with planks. Broad platforms ex.
tend into this, floating on two Or
three feet of water, constantly re.
newed from the spring. In the
reservoir deep pals or cans
are set and flied three. fourtbs
full Of milk-they sinking and
floating in u like depth of water. =
The milk remains here tweaty- four
TO thirty six hours, when tho cream
is taken off snd churncd by steam
or water -po&ef-si& to twenty fout
chnrns being operated at once with
no draft on hnman muscle. The
butter TINS made is Of such uniform
and superior quality as to bring
from five to ten cents per pound
more than fair. farm dairies will
command The Tribune estimates
that the dairy product of The State
will be increased ut least one fourth
by the general introduction Of these
factories.

Tho Uses OF paper.

One Of the latest uses Of paper is
its application in the manufacture
of pals. wash basins, pans, spit

seem, it is nevertheless true that
the above articles made from a
chemically prepared paper, arc
superior in many respects to any
others ever before madc. The pa

manufactured is rendered imper.

or exposed to tho severest cold,
without the slightest effect on thcm.
Where wood would rot and iron
rust. these articles arc unaffected,
and with proper usage would bO

advan ntage that water will not taste
of tho material, and will never
soak, and will not fall in pieces (;
they are lighter than tho wooden

Florida as a state to Go To

Probably no State in the Union
offers equal advantage to the very
poor man, There are many thou
sands OF acres Of government lands
within fifteen miles Of nayieable
streams, which are given away to
settlers. A weeks work by two
men and fifty dollars will actually
build better House than most Of
those occupied by the natives.
Everywhere. is an abundance Of
tall and straight pine and cypress
trees. 1t is easy TO cnt enough
ogs in day to build d comforta.
bic house. Shingles are made on
the spot with very little labor.
Most Of the houses here have nc
boaros except in the doors and tho
window frames. Bnt lumber is 30
cheap that he must be q very pous
laborer who cannet better afford
to buy his boards ready sawn for
floors aud ceilings. II is very easy
to clear the pine lands, and an ex-
cellent crop can be raised on them
the second year: indeed, it is quite
common to plant the first year.
The trees are rods apart, there Is
no underbrgsh, aud the turf 10
very light and loose.
A nan who hasa pair of mules,
a cart, harness and plough, and
two hundred dollars, at the end of
two years can havea comfortable
house and outbuildings o fenced
and improved farm OF eighty acres
and crop for sale which will com.
fortably ciothe and provide his
family tor tho next season, and
leave him q handsome sum to stock
and improve his farm. He may
keep al the cattle he can buy;
paying not a cent and working
no. u day for their pssturage and
forage. Summer aud winter they

His garden will furnish him
vegetables every month in the
year. Fuel grows abundantly at
his door, but the climate is 80 mild

The same midness of climate
saves him the expense of heavy
winter clothing; his neighbors will
wear very little made out OF their
own houses. Some of his food
crops, corn especially, will be POOR;

ton often can be made very profit
able. In u few years, and with
very little care, he can be provid-
ed with profusion of tho most
delicious fruits. To obtain a SUBJ
sistence, is as easy in Florida as it
we'll can be anywhere. Indeed it
often seems too easy, so that men
having to work so little they very
much dislike to work at all.

Colored Congressman.

The Washington correspondent
OF tho New York Times writes as
follows:
MANY people, both North and
South, are much. puzzled by the
question as TO whether we shall
have colored Congressman or not.
By reading the Consultation they
will find this question definitely
settled. It provides that no man
can be q Senator who has not been
nino years q citizen of the United
States, TOR any person u Repfcseti-
tative who has not. been seven
years q citizen. 1t makes little
difference, atpresent, whether the
citizenship OF the blacks dates
from the proclamation of enamel.
patton, or from the abolition OF
slavery by the Constitutional
Amendment, or from their onfran-
chisement by the Reconstruction
acts of Congress. At least two
years must:yet elapse before any
Representative of color can be ad-
mitted to the halls of Congress-"

The Secret Of General Grants
Military Success.

G (SS8gs
The Round Table, in noticing
Badeau's Life Of General Grant, .
snggesiS the following passage, as
showing the secret Of tho 6encr.
ais power and success. II says
To make this plain. we will give
q few brief extracts from the book
the italics being our own.
Having mad a West Point ednca.
ton, Grant was, of course, entitled
to be put on duty at q time when
almost no one knew the business
Of u solder. and whom everybody y
was anxious to know il. The
promptness and vigor Of this quiet
man is something surprising.
On the Lat Of September Fre-
mont placed Grant in charge oflhe
District Of Southeast Missouri.
headquarters at Cairo. On the I'd
he arrived at Cairo; on the 5th
ne heard that General Polk had
advanced into Kcntucky; oD the
same day he telegraphed Fremont,
Il am getting ready TO go TO Pa
ducah; will start at six and O half
O'clock" On the 9th 1.-The city was
seized without gun being fred.

Of recruits hurrying out Of town

was getting ashore" On the 10th
Of September Cat once, you see) be
asked permission Of Fremont, and
got no reply: "lf it was discre.
iionary with me, with a little ad.
dition 10 my present force, /
would take Columbus 70. 13).
Again: "llalleck ordered the move
ment on the 9Th, but on the 10Th
he teIegraphed directions for lie
delay. Grant, however, had al
ready started and the expedition
was not recalled" Up 25). He tel.
egrapbed Haileck at another time
Il shall take and destroy Fort
Douelson on the Sth and return 70

should be no delay in this matter y
At various times: II am ready for
anu move the General command

nothing for promotion 80 long. as
our arms are successful" (p. 79)
Buell. inquired. what prepare.
tions have you made for retreat

not have been concluded, for Grant
intercepted him at once, exc!aim

ingIy anxious" said Grant, ito do
something before the roads &c,

These brief extracts, and there are
hundreds moro, tell this story
Grant was out to fight and to beat
the enemy wherever he could fnd
them, and never rested until il was
done. lie did his work at once.
