New Christian Sect.

A Christian sect of unknown origin
and antiquity has been discovered by
French missionaries in Loudlana, in
India. By a voyage which extended
thirty miles to the south of that place
they fell in with q company OF Sh1kes,
who profess to believe the New Testa-
ment as a divine revelation, and who
consider Christ as the immaculate in
carnation of the Deity. Their priest
(gow0at) teaches his people that
Christ is about to reveal himself
from heaven, according to Matthew "A ;
%. and Revelation 10: %, but IN his
own person. This sect is wholly sepaa-
rate from other Indian tribes, and is
considered by them as truly Chris
tian band. The number Of its men,
bers was found to be on the increase,
They observe the Sabbath, are accus-
toned to pray, and do not recognize
the obligations of caste. The sect ex-
tends over the territories OF MaharaJah
and Putteala, and probably belongs to
the Kuka race, despite differences IN
faith. Christian HlteLJige31cer.

clover contains but nineteen pounds of
solid matter, whereas an equal weight
OF timothy has more than forty three
pounds. For soiling therefore, the cost
OF cutting and hauling the two kinds of
forage to the stalls is the ratio of three
and one sixth, with the further draw
! back in the case of clover that is too
! watery character is detrimental to the
general health of the animals. For hay
however, the analysis of chemists gives
/ a greater relative worth to clover, ton
for ton, as compared with timothy. than
it is commonly credited with. Dried
at 90 degrees Fahrenheit, red clover
contains about twenty two and one half
per cent of fesh-forming, and forty
four and one half per cent. of heat pro
ducing food elements while of these,
timothy has respectively abont eleven
and one third. three and one half, and
fifty-three and one third per cent.
ASIDE from the production of small
power machines for churning, mechan-
ism has done less to diminish work in
the dairy than in any other department
of farm practice. This is almost nee
esSar1ly the case, because so much of
care and intelligence is required to di-
rect every part of the operation of but
ter-mahing. But 4 little forethought
may often diminish the labor of certain
parts OF the process nearly or quite
one half. For example, IN the washing
of the butter before sailing, it is found
to be good plan to pause IN the OPP
Grafton when the butter has "gathered''
into nodules the size Of pea, add one
or two quarts of water to thin the but
termilk, churn again for few minutes,
and then draw off the liquid, replacing
the same with water and then continue
churning until the butter is massed
sOlidly together. By this means water
takes the place of buttermilk in the
butter, thereby insuring the removal
of a free caseine without the trouble
Eof working out" the buttermilk by a
separate operation, which is not only
troublesome and ilaborous, but which
tends to destroy the g grain" and that
firm consistency of the material, which
next to its flavor, is one Of it's highest
: recommendations in the market

The Sun Shining Tn

From careful observation of the
sun, we learn that it presents phase
of unusual interest in the fine cIuater of
spots, which is now observable on it's
surface. Last Friday this cluster was
seen on the eastern limb and contained
thlrty-slx well-defned spots. On Sat,
1rday the number had increased to
ftty-all, with one exception, being
small, 1t is noticeable that very few
spots are visible outside the limits of
this group, thus presenting an appear
ance directly opposite to that seen and
commented on two weeks ago; when,
though the number of spots was not
great, all were large and scattered over
the entire surface of the orb.

EXTRAORDINARY CURES. We have
read many accounts of the extraordi

VINEGAR BITrERs, which have seemed
incredible. We are inclined to believe
them, as many of those who vouch for
them are persons whose veracitv we
can guarantee, The newspapers TEEN
with testimonials Of this character. and
there IS an air of particularly and of
truth about them which cannot be re-
sisted. One manifest superiority the
VINEGAR BITTERs possesses over other
Alternative and Tonic preparations. It
contains none of the burning fluids with
which most advertised bitters are i'm
pregnated, It cannot create Fever, In
stead of clouding the brain, it clears it if

the stomach instead of bracing it. and is,
therefore, poison in cases of Indigestion.

Bltters and Iinctures. on the weakened and

A Conscientious Convict.

About six years ago colored man
in Indiana was sentenced to the State
Prison for four years for larceny. After
being an inmate for six months he es-
capped, and was not heard of since,
until few days ago, when he appeared
before the warden and gave himself up,
telling him who he was and that he had
come back for the purpose of serving
out the time he owed the state, nearly
three years and half. He states as a
reason for his escape that he had q
wife and ten children IN destitute cir
cumstances, and his object was to place
them in condition above want, and as
he had accomplished that purpose, he
was now ready and willing to pay the
penalty 'of his crime He was taken
in and locked up.

A CORRESPONDENT writing of the late
fires along the Susquehanna river,
says: every many rattlesnakes came
out from beneath hot rocks and burn

some were seen to jump into the air in
their frantic efforts to escape destruc,
ton. Some came down the mountain
side and hid beneath logs and rocks
near creeks. Above Laneboro scores
of the reptiles, large and small. were
seen to mingle upon a rock, Jump up-
