The Sea SERPENT.

A gentleman, says the Inverness
Courier, on whose intelligent observa-
ton and accuracy we have perfect re
lance, sends the following account of
strange animal now to be seen about
the west coast OF Iuvernces-shire. and
which, If not the veritable or tradition.
al sea-serpent, must be the object so
often represented under that appella-
ton:
"On Tuesday last, / went on q trip
to Lochoutn, in my small sailing-boat
| was accompanied by my friend and
acquaintance, the Rev. Mr.. -. of
Kent, rnv two daughters, a young man,
my grandson. and a servant-lad. While
we were proceeding along the Sound
of Sleat, it fell calm, and we were
rowing the boat, when we observed
behind us row of dark MASSES, which
we took at first glance, for shoal of
PROPOSES but a second look showed
that these masses formed one and the
same creature ; for 1T moved slowly
across our wake, about two hundred
yards off, and disappeared. Afterwards,
what seemed it's head reappeared, fol
lowed by the bumps, OF undulations of
the body, which rose i'll succession till
we counted eight of them. It APP
preached now within hundred yards
or less; and with the help of binocu-
lars, of which there happened to be
three on board, we could see it
pretty distinctly. We did not see its
eyes, nor observe any scale: but two of
the party believed that they saw what
they took to be small fin moving above
the water 1t then slowly sank, and
moved away just under the surface of
the water (for we could trace its course
till it rose again; by the large waves it
raised above it, to the distance of q
mile and upwards We had no means
of measuring its size with any accuracy
bat, taking the distance from the cen
ire of one bump, or undulation, of it's
body to that of another at six feet, fand
it could not be less), the length of the
portion visible above the water would
be about so feet; and there might have
been about 20 to 80 feet more of its
length which we did not see. It's head
seemed blunt, and looked about IS
inches in diameter, and the bumps
were rather larger than the head. When
III Iaplu ilot1ou tlle pumps uiSdpE'td1-
ed, and only the head and neck could
be seen partly above the surface of the
water. 1t continued to rush about III
the same manner as long as we remain
ed within sight of the place, but did
not again come SO near us that day.
On the afternoon of the next day, as
we were returning home, we encounter
ed our strange acquaintance again
within the entrance OF Lochourn, and
saw him careering swiftly along the
surface of the water, which was now
slightly ripping with a light air of
wind.

An Ancient HumOrist,

Hierooles who lived in the sixth cen
tury, collected twenty-one iests under
the general title of the " Pedant,' and
in this fossil textbook we find Jokes
that have been handed down through
succeeding collections, and have be
come old and familiar friends. Among
these ancient iests is an account of Il
man who, for fear OF drowning, deter
mined not to enter the water until he
was master of the art of swimming of
the man who complained that his horse
died Just az he had taught it to live
without food of the philosopher who
carried stone about with him as a
specimen of his house of one who
stood before glass with his eyes shut
to see how he looked when he was
asleep of Il man who bought a crow
to see whether it would live two hun
dred years OF not and OF one who went
into boat on horseback because he
was in a hurry. Here we find the ever
new story of man who, meeting a
friend, asked whether it was he or his
brother who was buried ; and the
laundering excuse Of the person who,
not having attended to the request of
a friend, said, when he met him. :!
am sorry / never received the letter
which you wrote to me about the
books.

storing Vegetables for Sprin.,

Most vegetables will retain their sound.
ness and flavor much better buried in the
earth than in the best of cellars. The
proper storing of vegetables should be at
tended to N season, before cold stormy
weather comes on, when they will be wet,
perhaps frost-bitten, and the workman will
be tempted to hasten, and slight the opera
ton,
A dry, and elevated situation should be
selected, where there will be no danger of
water soaking into the pit. We prefer to
bury the vegetables almost entirely be-
meath the surface, believing that they can
be more easily and certainlylProtected from
the frost under than above ground. Ii the
pit be dug two and enc. half feet deep, and
four feet wide, every foot in length will
contain about seven bushels. and pit five
feet long will hold a good wagon load,
perhaps enough for one PIT
Potatoes should be covered with few
inches Of dry straw before putting on the
dirt; bit we think that turnips, carrots,
parsnips, onions and horse radlsh retain
their plumpnesS and flavor better If in close
contact with the earth. The covering OF
the pits should be shallow at first, and they
should te ventilated with wlsps OF straw,
and the surface packed smooth with the
back of the shovel, TO shed the ram. Be-
fore hard freezing weather, they should be
covered about three feet in depth to guard
against the possibility of frost penetrating
TO the vegetables.
Cabbages require different treatmcn,
from other vegetables; not demanding en-.
tire protection from frost, but only from
frequent freezing and thawing. About
as good way as any We ever practiced,
Is TO stand thep upon their heads, on the
surface of the ground, four or six rows in
width, and cover with six or eight inches
of dirt. the leaves are mostly left on
the cabbage, they are quito protection of
themselves, especially if the cabbage are
inverted. II the dirt used in covering them
be taken from trench around the bed, the
water will settle into it, draining the bed.

Gold watcV Sad Tor Cows.

DURING the past summer, in the hot
days of July aud August, the animais re-
sorted to the lake to drink, and, after
shaking their thirst, they would wade into
the water and remain sometimes an hour
or two with their legs half immersed
ibis habit it was found invariably dimin-
1shed the flow Of milk at night, and, in
order to learn the diminution, careful
observations were made. 1t was ascer-
'alnct that standing in the water an hour
Diminished the flow to the amount Of ten
quarts in 4 herd of thirteen cows Tee
loss was So great that whenever they re-
sorted to the water they were driven away
20 the pasture at once. We have learned
that from simply turning the herd into the
yard upon cold day in winter and ALLOW
ing them IL repaain fifteen minutes, the
flow cf milk was Diminished 10 a serious
extent, and consequently the animals are
not allowed TO leave the warm stabl,
during the entire winter, excep: for brief
period upon warm, sunshiny days Water
Is brought directly from we'll into the
barn, and the drinking vessels are so
arranged that tho animals have to move
but a step or two TO supply their wants.

1 Willow Hedge,

A correspondent of the Central Union
Agriculturist writes in praise of the golden
willow foe a hedge. lie says: Ny plan
for making fence of the golden willow
Is to plough the hedge row in the fall
previous to planting, then procure your
slips in good season, say from the lst of
March to the 18th o. April, and Just as
soon after the frost is out of the ground as
possible have your slips cut twelve or
fourteen inches long cut them in the
ground eight inches deep, and six inches
apart; cultivate them well, and at ore
year old braid them down to within eight
inches OF the ground at two years old
braid them down within twenty inches OF
the ground, and SO on in proportion, until
you have a fence four or five feet high
which will take four or five years, and
then You have IN everlasting fence.
