THE subjoined item is given for the
benefit of such infants as are being
brought up on the bottle: "There is
microscopic fungus always found in milk
after being exposed for fifteen or twenty
hours to the air in summer, even before II
tastes the least sour. Some German ply
scians think this fungus the cause of di :
turbauces of digestion in children fed on
milk ; and they say that these often cease
when precautions are taken, such as to
give the milk as fresh as possible, and to
keep it in a bottle completely filed and
tightly corked. 1t should also be kept at
a temperature as nearly as possible that of
the milk as it comes from the cow"

"MUCK -" WHAT is Muck 9"-This
question comes to us almost every month
in the year, and now and then we answer
it, as we would be glad to do twelve times
in year if that were necessary. "Muck
is money" says an English proVerb. Muck
is manure in English parlance, and covers
pretty much everything that is soft or
moist and pasty. We apply the word al
most exclusively in our agricultural tech
nology to the partly decayed vegetable
matter of swamps and peat mOsses-even
applying it to peat fit for fuel, if it be used
as manure or as an absorbent in cattle
stalls After getting it out, let it freeze
and thaw, or if on drying it is not very
hard and lumpy, compost it with lime and
it will become fine and crumbly. 1t is
often rich in Ammonia and always useful
in composts,-American AgriouIturiSt.

Grants YIndicatiOn In Dollars and
Cents,

THERE has been much grumbling over
General Grants appointments, and some
of them may have provoked il; but the
fact is not dispute that the currentrevenue,
since they were made, shows large in
crease over the corresponding weeks of
last year. Now the taxes have not been
increased; our political adversaries say
that the country is not prosperous; and it
will puzzle any one to account for the in
creased receipts into the Treasury on any
other hypothesis than that of increased
efficiency in the collection. We believe
the income of the Government since Gen
eral Grants Inauguration has exceeded
that of the corresponding period of last
year by fully five millions of dollars, and
that our national debt has been reduced,
over and above any reduction expected in
the spring months of 1868, by fully ten
millions. We submit these facts as a full
justification of the changes made by Gen.
eral Grant.-Ntp York Tribune.

Stick to the PlOw and the Plane.

Don't come to the city, my boy. Your
chance, in the long run, is better where
you are. Hundreds, indeed, make for
tunes here, but thousands live wearisome
and even suffering lives in the city Clerks
have larger salaries than young farmers,
but then their expenses for boarding,
clothes, and amusements, are so much
larger, that less is saved at the end OF the
year. Then the temptations of the city
are so strong and so constant that few
young men resist them. Not many young
city clerks, even if they avoid bad company
are able early in life to have home of
their own. A young man in the country,
soon after his time becomes his own, can
secure capital enough, with an economical
wife, to set up housekeeping for himself,
and have a quiet, comfortable, and even
beautiful little home of his own. One of
the wealthiest men in the vicinity of Bos-
ton, who died few years since, said the
happiest years of his life were passed
when he was gathering, very slowly, the
beginnings of his fortune. When he mar
ried, he and his wife were worth, each,
twenty-five cents, and they lsbored low
ingly and happily together. This was GER
taiply very small fortune for two to
commence upon, but they were worth
nuuuiGuS Ol luOuSdDuS WuCu tl6J ulSu,
gathered by economical labor. The writer
knows an excellent young man in this city
who is now nearly thirty. He has long
been engaged to young lady of fine tai.
ents and good temper. 1t would be q
great comfort to both to be married; but
then, his salary, although quite large,
would not support them in the style Ri
life to which the young woman has been
accustomed in her own home. Besides,
the position of clerks is very uncertain.
By the failure of what was considered one
of the strongest houses in the city, this
young man was thrown out of place and
salary for six months. Stick to the plow
then, or to some solid, wholesome trade.
You will then be sure of comfortable
living, You can earlier have a home OF
your own, and you will be less exposed to
the constant changes in business, which
destroy at one blow the earnings of years.

The Peace Jubilee.

Those attending the Great Peace Jubilee
and Musical Festival at Boston, June h,
10th, 18th, 18th and 10Th, should procure
tickets pid ERIE RAILWAY, which offers
the cheapest rates, and is the most COM
Portable and attractive route to the East.
The magnificent steamers of the Fall
River and Newport Line have their laud-
ing in New York at the Erie Railway
depot, so that passengers by this route
avoid the expense aud annoyance of a
transfer through the city.
The beautiful scenery of the Erie Rail-
way, and the delightful sail through Long
Island Sound, are particularly enjoyable
al this season, and with the low rates OF
fare TO the Festival, will, we think, induce
many to make their summer pleasure trip
at this time.

With all its brilliant radiance undimmed;
Gone ike sun that's SET with al the gold
And purple Of 8 noble life well spent,
Making thy couch Of death irradiate.
Thine absence doth starless twilight leave
In hearts that loved thee, yet Is II inm'ed
By the rich glow the memory of thy days
So rightly lived, so calmly yielded up,
Paints In warm, glowing, glorious tints
Along the dark horizon Of Regret
The dew was yet upon the leaves OF life,
Time in lis fiery thirst had not yet sapped
The morning freshness from thy manly pulse,
The summer sunshine from thy generous heart.
Thy feet yet rested mid the rosy bloom.
The MONDAY light, and warmth, and crystal truth
OfGrsnd Existence, and the curdling clouds
OF wintryi age had not as yet obscured
One star in the fair zenith of thy days.
The royal gold of Faithful Friendship filed
The golfers of Thy life, yet thou didst die
Die, while Love chung 10 thee and prayed aloud
IN direst agony that thou wculdst live.
Die, while True Friendship seifforgetful stood
Die, while Aaection's meek resistance fought
The ono foe stronger than are all our friends
Ave while we wept, Death offered thee his hand
And thol diast take it fesrlessly like one
Who only sees In him the uusty guide
Who watts t. lead us through Lies final gates
Into tie Better Country far beyond.
Droop, Oh, ye village elEs, beneath whose shade
So long and peacefully ais heart did beat,
Drop lea and sadly. for that heart is still
Turn ye' thy morning dews 10 tears and shed
Them teEderly in memory Of him
Who shall to Thy green arches come no more.
Thy leaves will fall in autumn, but bis feet
Val never rustic their crisp depths again;
Thy brsDphes viii put forth their buds in spring
And birds will build there, but bis loving eye
Shall look upon thy buds and birds no more.
DroOp log. ye village Gins, his sacred dust

Whose lobely pillow he shall leave no more.
Ye mountain peaks bid ye the passing clouds
To Grape thy submits with their pale grey MISS
Death has put out the eyes that loved thee well.
And lushed the voice that joyed TO speak thy
praise.
"A note is stolen from the lofty scale
OF human harmony; and all the sweet
ResouDdfag echoes climbing up thy heights
Must miss one from among their cheerful choir.
Cease, cease to toll, ye village church bells,

For enc who is not; aud the sisles of Thought,

Toward the far eternal valleys, where

The STATE SEMINARY. The citizens of New
Orleans do not seem to know that we have in this
State an institution that is as capable of giving
onr yonth an academic education as any other
similar one in the world. At Alexsncrfa Is ioo.s.a
a school, supported by the State, taught by
Louisiana men, filed by Louisiana boys, and yet
to this institution the city Of New Orleans sends
but seven students. Now, this is not as it should
be. While we have every facility in our own
State, our boys should not be sent away to other
States TO obtain their education. When they want
collegiate training, send them to the great scho.
lastic institutions Of the land, but when they only
need that;which we ourselves can give them, let
us send them to school that is emphaacally our
own.
