BRUSSELS LAcE.-It may be of particular in
terest to our lady readers to know that in
manufacturing the finest kinds of Brussels lace
the thread used is of exquisite fneness, and is
spun in dark, underground rooms, where the
air is sufficiently moist to prevent the thread
from separating. 1t is SO delicate as scarcely
to be seen, and the room is 50 arranged that all
the light admitted shall fall upon the work. II
is such material that renders the genuine Brus-
sells ground SO costly. On piece of Valen-
ciennes not two inches wide, from two to three
hundred bobbins are sometimes used and fol
larger width as many as eight hundred on
the same pillow.

son, or order, is first endorsed by third per
son such third person is held to be an original
prommissor, guarantor or endorser, according
to the nature of the transaction, and the un-

BRADLEY's PATENT ENAMEL PAINT.-This arti-
Gle, of which we have before spoken, is rapid
ly coming into use, and, as the testimonials at
tached to the advertisement of the agent, Mr..
c. P. Knight, SO West Lombard street, would
indicate, it is giving entire satisfaction to all
who have given it trial. By its use you can
become your own painter, and not only save
expense in that particular, but also in the pur-
chase of paint, as this patent article is much
cheaper than the old, and at the same time
more durable and imparts finer appearance
to the work. These facts have been establish
ed beyond doubt, and for the proof we refer
our readers to the advertisement of Mr.. Knight,
and ask that they give the testimonials care

A FINE JERSEY HERD.-Under this head the
editor of the American Farmer, in speaking of
the cattle of Enoch Pratt, Esq at his elegant
country seat on Woodburn avenue, says:
owe have frequently had occasion to allude
to the number of herds in the vicinity of Bal
timore of excellent Jersey cattle. No gentle
mans country seat seems complete without a
few choice specimens of this butter-producing
race. Finding ourselves recently in the vici-
nifty of the farm of Mr.. Enoch Pratt few
miles from this city, we stopped to look at the
handsome cows, which for their neat shapes,
really blooded appearance, good touch and
gentle disposition, as we'll, we were told. as
their profitable yield. com pare favorably with
any in this section. They gave every indica-
tion of careful attention indeed were we Ia
venture a criticism, we would suggest that one
or two of them were in rather too good condi-
tion. 1t sometimes happens that those having
the care of superior animals become SO attach
ed to them, or so desirous of seeing them dc
well, that they feed too high. 1t must be borne
in mind, in the care Of domestic animals, tha
to follow the indications of Nature, bulk il
their food is as necessary as nutritious material
and that beyond a certain point, too higf
feeding produces only disappointment. TIT
failure to regard this is sometimes the key t.
the want of success in raising fine stock"
