Milk and Butter Products from Dutch
Cows.

In the article in our last issue headed
Dutch Dairies," and written under Dor
sonal observations in Holland by Prof.
Cook Rutgers College, New Jersey, we
were struck with the statement that in
Holland they expect to get 2 1-2 pounds
Of butter from 81 quarts of milk.
This amount of butter is so far short of
what is obtained here from the same
quantity Of milk, that supposing there
was some mistake in the figures, we wrote
to Prof. Cook, who replies, that he was
also surprised at such results, but be-
ieves they are correct, as it is SO in his
notes, aud also on Dutch work on ag-
riculture, now by him. lie supposes it
may be explained, that part of the butter
is probably left in the milk which is then
made into cheese, greatly improving its
quality. He thinks the milk of Dutch
cows is richer in caseine than the aver
age of ours, but not so rich in butter
We do not exactly see how churning could
be SO managed as to teparate only part OF
the butter.

as rule to which there is no exception,

both cases, figures, which never lie, do
not show the same results. There is no
considerable dairy district where reliable
figures are accessible that does not show
depreciation, except where food has
been purchased or a mixed husbandry
practiced, or where a large amount of
meat has been made in connection with
the diary, which of course implies one or
both OF the former conditions. Some in

"Iwcnt to "a Syracuse salt-maker and asked him why
he log-roed through Congress duty OF over 12O per
cent. on salt.
"'It is plain enough, cam get double price for my
SALT
Then the price Of salt has been higher than 1t would
have been under Free-TradeP
"'Certainly. Otherwise, why should have workedto
get the tariff imposedP
And if the price OF salt has been higher, then there
has been salt in this country since the duties were
levied for if it had not affected the quantity, it would
not have affected the priceP
"' OF course
al wrote in my book: IN The opinion Of he salt
maker there has been less salt IN America than MGTe
,oould hare been tcitbOut TIE tariff" de-, de-, dc.
We brand this man liar, and dare him to
attempt to remove the brand. Most certainly,
if he ever event to a Syracuse salt-maker,"
and had such d conversation with him, then
he can name the man and give the time -
such Conversation. But he never did any such
thing. lie puts words into the mouths of
those he would defame, and then makes them
bear false witness against themselves. This is
the meancst kind Of forgery, and utterly with
out excuse. 1t is utterly false that "a Syra-

article. And so with Others.

Prince Frederick Charles, coming up with
Gen. Chanzy at lie Mans, has not hesitated to
engage him. The French claim that he had
10000. Though this number is doubtless exag-
eerated, it is evident that the opposing forces
were not SO unfairly matched as previous re-
ports have led us to suppose. the aQeop.11Is3
of the two days fighting are conflicting; but it
is evident, from the positive claims of
the Germans and the admissions Of
the desponding French, that the latter met
with severe defeat, and one which will
doubtless compel their retreat from lie Mans
toward Cherbourg, since the line to the south
remains closed to them. The Germans claim
as results of this signal victory 10000 prison
ers, and tho possession of the important rail-
way center and strategic point before which
the battle was fought. If the defeat of Chanzy
results in his rapid flight westward, it puts an
end to all hopes which Paris may entertain of
relief from the provinces.

It seems to be agreed that these are excep-
tionaly Hard Times. The Winter is rather
severe; some merchants and some spectators
have failed; debts are collected with difficulty !;
and most people seem to have less money than
they wish they had. So we agree that the
times are hard; and our agreement tends to
make them so.
On q superficial view, the cry would seem
ill-founded While Europe is convulsed with
actual and tremulous in view of threatened
war we are securely at peace; pestilence does
not decimate us and our crops for 1870 were
good. True, the East suffered from severe
drouth; but the East is not specially depressed /;
the Dairy product of this and other Middle
States brought fair prices; the South has a
large Cotton crop, and is selling at what used
TO be considered good prices, though less than
those of last year, and the South is not par
ticularly complaining. Oddly, we hear more
of Hard Times from the Mid-West-that is,
from the region between the Ohio and the
wssouri-whicb has large Corn crop, and
which is selling its Wheat, Pork, Lard, &c,
higher because of the French War than 1t

THE TYEYTY-THIRD-STREET ILIAD.

Mr.. James Fisk, jr., i'll the character of Plu
tus, is one of the familiar figures of the Amer
lean metropolis. He is not unknown also in
the blazing armor of Mars or in the gold lace
and navy buttons of Palinurus. His feats are
as famous as the banquets Of Lucullus, his
pleasures as princely as the recreatiOns of
Helogabalus. His latest appearance, however,
in the more heroic role of Achilles, will arouse
in the public mind emotions equally COM
pounded of pleasure and surprise. No exploit
in which he has hitherto engaged will compare
with the fierce warfare by which he now shakes
the halls of justice and fills the public prints.
Achilles wrath, to Stokes the direful spring of
woes unnumbered was all about woman.
The Briseis of the modern Had is Mrs. jose
phine Mansfield LawlOr, well known to the
mimic boards as beautiful blonde. How Mr..
Fisk led her away captive, as the Grecian hero
led away the daughter of Brises, we need not
stop to tell The glory of the golden bower,
80 to speak, wherein the warrior and his
charmer wiled away the rosy hours, the splen-
dor of the Lawor chariOts, the sheen of the
Lawlor's robes, these were the talk of the town
and the envy Of the ballet. The stage mourned
its lost star, but mankind in public resorts
gazed with admiration upon the happy, happy
pair, and realized the truth of the song that
none but the brave none but the brave, none
but the brave deserve the fair. In an evil
hour came Agamemnon, in the shape OF Stokes.

convenience to the public. 1t is O physical
impossibiity, with our streets as they now
are. to put cars enough on track to give
seats to all the passengers, at all hours Of the

would need so many cars, morning and even
ing, for that purpose, that there would be al
most continuous line Of them from the City
Hall to Sixty-ffth-st., and Chatham-st. and
the Bowery would be impossible. The cars
are sbamefully overcrowded, it is true; but
we see no remedy until we get some under
ground or other system Of quick transit that
will relieve the OvercrOwded th0roughfafes
then the evil Of overcrOwded ears VIII correct
itself. The truth is that the roads upon
which the discomfort Of passengers IS now
greatest are just those upon which the cars
are already as many as they can well be with
ont unduly obstructing the avenues. Give us
more avenues Of travel, and people viii refuse
to ride in overloaded convcyanccs.
