FEED FOR HORSES AND CuwS.-Will some

through the Country Gentleman, how much
feed daily, by weight or measure, of oats
and corn, mixed equal parts and ground, to
be fed to horses on cut hay and wheat-chati
to COWS on cut corn fodder and chat
How much Of such mixture is enough to
keep them in thrifty condition, provided
with good stabling at night, and at all times
in rough weather Horses not worked
steady, but wanted to be always ready.
Cows expected to come into profit in Febru-
airy. No roots of any kind on hand. J. ?.
BuccS county, Pa. There is great diff
terence in horses as to keeping in good
condition. We have had some that would
always be in better flesh if fed only on hay
or grass and worked considerably, than
others on two OF three daily feelings Of grain
in addition to the hay, but, as general
rule, we would not feed grain heavily to any
working animal, (say not more than three
quarts Of the meal mentioned st tlme,)
but be especially careful to feed regularly
as to time and quantity, and to keep the
animal always comfortable with clean
quarters and pure air. When these requi-
SITES are dttenucu ", HoiSS5 VIII looh oSeeSA
and be better than with heavy and irregu-
lar feeding and careless management. A
very little ground grain-say quart or so
at feedipg-in addition to good hay, COM
Portable shelter, cleanliness, and pure wa
ter, will keep cows in excellent condition
through winter, and be cure to make all
required changes gradually. The eye Of
the owner is worth great deal in seeing
that everything is properly attended toll

OLD BREAD.--A curious discovery has
Just been made 81 Pompeii. In q house in
course Of excavation an oven was found,
closed with an iron door, on opening which
a batch OF eighty-one loaves, put in nearly
eighteen hundred years ago, and now some
what overione, was discovered, and even
the large iron shovel with which they had
been neatly laid in rows. The leaves were
but slightly overbaked by the lava heat,
having been protected by 8 quantity OF
ashes covering the door. There is no
bakers mark on the loaves they are cir
cular, about inches in diameter, rather
flat, and inIented evidently with the
bakers elbow in the centre, and are
slightly raised at the sides, and divided by
deep lines radiating from the centre into
eight segments. They are now of q deep
brown color, and hard but very light. III
the same shop were found SCI bronze and
80 silver coins. A mill, with a great guam
tity of corn in excellent preservation, has
also been discovered.

SHOOTING AFFRAY Il MISSoURI.-We
have before US letters detailtDg the particu-
lars Of q shooting afrray in Louisiana, Mo-,
on New Years day, which resulted in the
ieath OF our former townsman Dir. William
I. Foreman, son OF MIR. Jacob Foreman, of
this county. II seems that The difficulty
originated between Two men named Lazier
father and sony and Mr.. O. rles Foreman,
IN which the latter was seve : handled by
the two, having been first 5'ruck with q
brick and afterwards bcatc2 with clubs.
This occurred on the farm Ct Lazer, not
far from the town Of Louisiana, and grew
ont Of au alleged insult offered by young
Lazier to two young ladies who were skating
On his fathers pond, and who were accom-
oanied by Charles Foreman nj the time.
The treatment Of his brother incensed VIM.
Foreman, and meeting with the elder Lazicr
few days after, he denounced the act as
cowardly, and advanced towards him, after
having dared him into the street to settle
the difficulty. LaZier az once drew re-
volyer and fired, the ball passing through
his rjgnt side. Foreman staggered, but
catching door-knob he supported himself
for 81 while, when his opponent fired Sc
cond shot. The ball from this entered the
back and came out on the left side, and in
hicted the fatal wound-although at the
zine his wound was not even regarded as
dangerous. He was taken to his home, and
was thought 10 be recovering until the 18th
Of the present month, when he was suddenly
taken worse, and died On the lAth. On the
18th he was buried by the Masonic frater-
nifty. Lazier vas at once arrested, but ad-

a BALLOON VOYAGE TO EUROPE.-The
notion of an aerial voyage to Europe has
been revived by NJ. Chevalier, 9 celebrated
French e7onaut, who has just arrived in

10 the Russian frontier, distance Of over
100 miles, in less than FIVE hours. Upon
