heiiers grow larger that breed late, and
if beef is q prominent object in the ami
nal, this may be good policy. But in
dairy districts We want milk, butter and
cheese at the earliest moment that the
animal is capable Of producing them
economically. The Jerseys and their
grades bring calves quite early, some
times at fifteen months old, frequently
at eighteen months, and a. rule at two
years or under. The heifers that come
IN al fifteen months frequently lose
their calves, and their growth is good

The h.~sical condition of Mr..
Sumner is such at present as to
cause sOlicitude Oh the part of his
friends. He was not in his seat in
the Senate last week, and il is
doubtful If he will be able to re
sume his Senatorial duties for some
time to come. His prescribing ply
sician is DIR. Brown Seguard, of
New York, and his attending ply
sician in Washington, who admins
ters the remedies Calling twice dai-
W, is DR.. j. Taber Johnson. AL
though he suffers much from pain
and sIeeplessness, he sits up most the
time during the day, and is able tC
receive visitars. He says his suff
ering is precisely similar to thai
which followed his injury by Pres
ton Brooks, about twenty years
since, and is undoubtedly from thu
same cause.
