THE Moro VOTE IN KENTUCKY
Since the result of the election in Ken

ticket have been notified by Radical
State, under penalty of severe punish
ment. 70 these threats the Democrats
make answer
while the Democratic party has
not sought the votes OF negroes, but
has preferred to let them lake their
choice, free from the influence of direct
party appeal, 1t will never submit to

freely accorded to all the negroes"

UNIVERSAL AMNESTY Although,
says the New York World, there are
yet men in arms against the royal
authority in Cuba, the Spanish Govern

amnesty. In the United States, though
not a gun has been fired against the
Federal authority for six years, there
is no general pardon yet. Republican
mercy is harder than Spanish hate.

cows WITHHOLDING MILK.

What is the best method to cause IL COW to
give down her milk when she is inclined to
hold it up? When cows withhold
their milk, they are commonly in II dis
satisfied state of mind and therefore any
thing to draw their attention from this con
dition. answers good purpose. We have
always succeeded by giving them II mess of
food to amuse them while the milking is 60
ing on generally dry meal, so as to keep
them long occupied. IF they have sucking
calves, let them suck ut the time of milking.
Driving them in II position so that their fore
legs will stand OH much higher ground than
the hind legs. or on lower ground counter
acts the animals attention, and generally
succeeds. 1t is said that II weight ON the
small of the animals back, as II bag Of grain,
will answer, but we know nothing Of its eff
cacy, nor how heavy it must be.-CO. gen

RIGHT AND WRONG WAY TO MILK.

The Irish Farmers GdycUc publishes the
following from Prof. Dick of the Edinburgh
Veterinary College, on the manner of milk
ing
"The operation of milking is performed
differently in various parts of the country.
in some the dairy maid dips her hand into II
little milk, and by successfully stripping the
tcat between her fingers and thumb unloads
the udder. This plan. however, is attended
with the disadvantage of irritating more or
less the tcat, and rendering it liable to cracks
and chops, which arc followed by inflamna-
ton extending to the rest of the quarter.
This accounts for the disease occurring more
frequently among the cows under the charge
of one mixer than it does in those under the
charge of another; and as this practice is
more common in some parts of the country
than in others, it also accounts for the disease
being more common in these parts. This
plan of milking, where the irritation is not
sufficient to excite the extent of inilammi-
ton to which have alluded frequently pro-
duces II horny thickcning of the teat, II con-
sequence of the cracks and chops, which rem
dcrs it more difficult to milk than when in
its natural state, and, ut the same time, pre-
disposcs to inflammation when any cause oc-
ours to set it up.
These effects may be, and are, almost en-
tirely avoided, by the most scientific plan of
milking adopted in other parts of the cont
try, where. instead of drawing down or strip
ping the tcat between the thumb and fingers
rs | have stated, the dairy maid follows more
closely the principles which instinct has
taught the calf. She first takes slight hold
of the tcats with her hand, by which she
merely cncirces it, then lifts her hand up so
Us to press the body of the udder upwards
by which the milk escapes into the teat; or
if, us is generally the case when some hours
have elapsed between mlking-times, the
teat is full she grasps the teat close to its or
igin with her thumb and fore-fnger, so us to
prevent the milk which is in the teat from
escaping upwards; then making the rest of
the fingers to close from above downwards
in succession, forces out what milk may be
contained in the teat through the opening of
it. The hand is again pressed up and closed
us before, and the milk drawn easily and
freely, without the Juggling and wrenching
inflicted by clumsy mixers"

"A PROMISING YOUTH.-Last night, an intelli-
gent appearing cOlOred boy, about fifteen yeaIS
OF age, applied for employment to Charles =.
Edwards, druggist, at No. 1872 Bridge street. He
told pitiful story, which SO wrought upon the
feelings Of MIR. Edwards that he offered him the
situation OF GRAND boy in his store. The young
scamp gratefully accepted the offer, and during
the evening made himself useful in various WAYS
about the store. This morning about four O'Clock
the boy, WHO slept in a room adjoining that OF
his employer, arose and going into Mr.. Edwards
sleeping apartment, rifed his pants of the sum
OF $50 in greenbacks. Not content with this
theft, the young thief proceeded down stairs to
the store, where he managed to wrench the
money drawer from its place and conceal IL
under his coat. He then left the store, and has
not since been seen or heard of. The police are
on his track, and it is hardly possible that he will
escape. He gave his name as William Wilson
There was about $40 in the money drawer much
OF 1t In silver, which makes the total amount of
the theft $40.
