LONDON, May 20.-Ths following

terday morning he was ready for ac-

after short struggle was carried.
The Duke then moved at the head
of large body of troops to the Royal
Palace, but the Governor bad taken
measures of defence, and the Duke
found troops posted and artillery in
position to oppose him. An attack was
ordered and some shots were fired,
but the soldiers were evidently illdis-
posed to fight against each other, and
after desultory firing they broke
ranks and fraternized. The Palace
being left unguarded, the soldiers,
volunteers and some peasants who ac-
companied them. entered, displaying
popular flags and shouting, Long live
the Kingl Long live the army and
Soldanhual down with the Ministry"
Though greatly excited they COM
mitted no violence, and contented
themselves with marching through
the corridors and grounds, singing
national songs and utteriDg patriotic
cries. The Prime Minister, Duke de
Lauls, against whom the movement
was directed, seeing that the day was
lost, rendered his resignation. which
was accepted by the King. The VIC
torious Soldanhua was admitted to
an audience, and was requested By
the King to form a new Cabinet,
which task he consented to under
take.
1t is reported that seven men were
killed and thirty wounded, during
the day. Though the cause of the
Duke Soldanhau, has the sympathy of
the citizens of Lisbon, Oporto and
other cities, the people took little or
no part IN the movement. The Duke
intended it to be surprise, and re-
lied wholly on troops for success;
what the effect will be cannot yet be
told. Great agitation prevails in the

L have had a little experience in this
line, and are highly pleased with the
result; they, come into feeding for
mich cows after other fodder has
been killed by frost, and at season
of cal city Of other green food: their
value asa milk producing feed l think
st.nds fully equal to any other green
food have ever fed and the product
that can be grown upon an acre is
very large. Probably the most diff
scult part is the storage for winter use.
To get the most benefit with the least
labor in storing and feeding is the
object (or should beg of those who
raise any crop for green food for
stock; hence it will be necessary to
have some convenicnces for. storing
and feeding the crop after it s grown.
For myself, think the feeding should
begin as soon as green corn fodder is
injured by the frost; that is usually
the last of September or first of Octo-
Der; the mich cows are then carried
ON with a good flow of milk, which is
much better than to let them fall away,
and then try to bring them back by
high feeding. l find that in changing
feed we must begin moderately, and
increase as the animals get used to
feed, to the full amount desired to be
fed then keep OH steadily with that
till another change is desirable, or of
necessity, must be made. Variety is
of great benefit for all farm stock, and
changes are often of great benefit to
neat stock, more so than at first APP
pears. The feeding of cabbages in
connection with hay and meal, as
proposed by "a Subscriber" will be
found very beneficial; at least such
has been my experience for the past

Importance Of Breeding.

However much by iudic;ous man
agcment we may enable a. flock to
produce wOel under the most ,fayOrhi
bic circuiEst mIces, it is perfectly clear
that the natural character of the breed
WIN be. a. very important agency.
Management will go far to, favor the
growth Of good wool; but it certainly
cannot do all we need.n Hence the
importance of securing sheep which
are of suitable breed, and from
which we may be sure to obtain wool
! Of the desired quantity. and weight
The value oflong-eentinued and care
full breeding is shown as forcibIy in
Ifhe wool as III the general form of the
body. Those f6cks which, for sever
Il, successive generations, have maiif-
tanned one steady and uniform char
facter of WOO, offer the best source
from which to breed when it is desir-
ed to improve the, wool ofany flock.
Tie buyers should not look for rams
suitable for this purpose without duly
considering the previous history OF
the flock from which they may be
selected. Many a. sheep possesses
the external qualifications desired
so far as the eye is able to judge-but
unless the flock from which it has
been obtained has been carefully bred,
the buyer will probably be disapy
pointed. The value of a good wool
is strong inducement for making its
growth as abundant and as good as
the local circumstances of a farm'will
