Breeding Young Stock.

Mr.. Wolcott maintained, in a paper
before the Central New York Farmers
Club, that breeding from young stock
is prolific cause of abortion in COWS.
Heifers are more subject to abortion
than other COWS. A yearling bull is
unfit for breeding, and should be dis
carded altogether from USE This rule
will apply with equal force to all kinds
of domestic animals. Pigs bred from
young stock are not only little rrnts
but usually too weak to walk, and COM
monty die within two hours from birth.
Texas cattle but seldom breed until
they are three years old, or older, and
they are fed upon grasses and forage
grown upon soils abundant in mineral
plant food. Their calves, when a few
hours old, will run like elk across the
prairies, and herd of cattle stamped
ing, Will run ten or twenty, and some
times, twenty -five miles in less time
than horses could be driven. showing
strength and endurance Mr.. w. be-
heved that breeding from too young
stock was one prolific cause of abor-
ton IN cows. 1t deteriorates the con
stltution of animals.

Summary of Important Prec, edings In
Congress.

| Senator Howe has introduced into the
Senate bills for ship canal to connect
the waters of Green Bay with Lake
Michigan, Wis; making land grants in
aid of the Green Bay and Lake Pepin
Railroad, and railroad from Milwau-
kee to Lake Superior, via Green Bay;
extending the time for the construction
of the railroad from the ST. Croix River
to the west end of Lake Superior and
Bayfield,
| Among the bills introduced into the
House are the following: To repeal the
income tax; increasing the representa-
ton of certain states in the House of
Representatives; to enable the people
of Colorado and New Mexico to form a
constitution and state government
latter under the name of Lincoln, with
the view to admission
The House has passed joint resolu-
tions repeating the duties on salt, coal,
tea and coffee The vote stood at about
14O ayes to SO noes.
The House has adopted a resolution
instructing the Committee ON Foreign
Affairs to inquire whether the acquisi-
ton of Lower California is feasible and
desirable, and if SO to make such rec
concentration as may seem best.
The House has passed a resolution
for the appointment of Committee of
ID, to sit during the recess of Congress
and investigate the condition of the
south with reference to the outrages
upon the persons and property of Union
men. Subsequently the Senate passed
joint resolution to the same effect,
and it is probable that the House will
rescind its action and concur in the
Senate's resolution for Joint Commit
tee of both houses.
Sumner presented in the Senate a
memorial from citizens of San Domin-
go who had been exiled from their
country by Baez, setting forth his cru
elites to them and all who opposed him
and the scheme of annexation, that the
vote in favor of annexation was OBJ
tanned by force and protesting against
that measure. Before the memorial
had been half read the point was raised
that 1t was against the usage of the
Senate to receive memorials from for
e1gners, and the reading of the paper
was stopped.
Both houses have concurred IN grant
ing permission for the erection of
monument to Prof Morse, on the cor
ner of Seventh street and Pennsylva-
MIA Avenue, Washington.
Senator Davis has proposed an amend
ment to the constitution for the estab-
lishment of constitutional tribunal,
consisting of one member from each
State, with power to decide all ques-
tions of jurisdiction between the United
States and the several states, and the
constitutionality of acts of Congress
or any government officer, and to open
and count the electoral votes for Presi-
dent and Vice President.
Nearly the whole session in the
House on the 10Th was occupied by
bitter personal alteration or debate
between Speaker Blaine and Gen. But
Ter, growing out of certain charges
made by the latter IN a circular to the
members, the principal of which was
that the passage of the resolution for
committee of investigation into South
ern outrages was secured by a trick.
The Speaker was active in getting up
the resolution, and Butler opposed it,
hence the quarrel.

THE London correspondent of the
Missouri Republican writes: "Kate
Field is coming to London to lecture
this Spring She has written to friend
to make all preparations, and will be
here in three or four weeks, perhaps, if
not SO soon, then by April at latest.
She is to give at first her lecture on
Charles Dickens. Women lecturers
are almost wholly unknown here; like
wise popular lecturers. Specialists,
who address from the platform, special
audiences, there are some few; but
speakers like Cough or Beecher, or
Anna Dickinson, who go into the great
public halls and speak to the people,
there are none. 1t is very plucky then
for this bright, intrepid daughter of
ST. Louis to cross the ocean, and liter
ally beard the lion in his den of con-
servatism, stupidity and prejudice.
