THE KENosHA TELEGRAPH
KENOSHA, WIS, FEB. rs, 1875.
WASHINGTON, February 2O.--Sen-
ator Carpenter occupied his seat in
the Senate to-day. He was heartily
welcomed by Senators of all parties.

ALLEN T. CAPERroN was elected
on the 18th instant, after many bal
lettings, United States Senator for
West Virginia, for six years from
the 4th of next March, to succeed
Senator Foreman. Mr.. Caperton
was Senator in the Confederate Con
gress, and after the war refused to
ask the removal of his disabilities.
He is described as being sixty to
sixty-fve years old, lawyer, good
debater, a conservative Democrat,
an honest man, and fully identified
with the material interests of the
SsAte. He was voted for by many
Republicans which was due partly
to compromise between the sec
tional interests Of the State, Wheel
ing getting the capital and the
Southeastern counties the Senator.

HEREFORDs AND sHORT-HORNs

A gentleman in Le:cestershire, Eng
land, who keeps large dairy of Short.
Horns, wishing TO make a comparison
between them and the Herefords, boughr
a very good Hereford cow. He socn
found that this cow gave much less milk
than any of his Short-Horns, but as she
was fine looking co W and good brce d.
er, he continued to use her in his dairy.
In the ensuing Spring be determined to
make a more exact comrarlson of the
quantity and quality Of the milk given
by the respective breeds. For THIS pur-
pose Sbort-Horn cow was selected
of the same age, and which calyed
within two days of the same time as
the Hereford. The milk Of each was
carefully measured, and the Short Horn
was found to give nine and the Hereford
six quarts at meal. The milk was set
and the cream churned separately, Tba,
| from the Hereford produced nine pounds
and that from the Shert-Horn not quite
| five pounds of butter per week. The
cows stood in the same stall, were fec
on the same kind Of food, and had beer
Kept alike previous to oalving.
This fact is interesting as illustrating
the marked difference that exists in the
qusntlty and quality of milk given By
different cows. We need hardly say
that single test does DOT prove any
thing in regard TO the different breeds
At most a single experiment only make
proposition of the kird probable.

If towels are kept for eggs alone,
the Leghorns, the Houdans, or the
Black Spanish fowls would be the
most prolific. When we'll fed and
cared for, young hens of these breeds
may be expected TO lay twelve dozen
ofeggs per year until they are four
years old. But these towels are
light-bodied and not good for the
table. Game towels are prolific OF
eggs, and of the best quality for the
table, but are small. The light
Brahma fowls are decidedly the most
profitable for all purposes. , A her
|of this breed will lay steadily
through the winter, hatch brooc
of chickens eatly in the spring, begin
to lay again before her brood i:

when she suspends her "lay" fol
a short time. When three years ole
and fat she will weigh six pounds
and be very good eating.

ed elsewhere? Wewere loaded with impre
cations and maledictions. We were
blasted with constitutional anathemas
The whole body of the Democracy in
this chamber heaped abuse upon us
Thosewho sat mute in these seats day
and night, while they were pelted with
storm Of monstrous and unjust accuse
ton, have not forgotten the history or
the cost of this legislation. We heard
the same old argument to which we bad
listened during the war. Violation of
the Constitution, military despotism,
arbitrary power, State rights, centraliza-
ti;,n, and all the worn formula in which
Lincoln and Grant, and the Republican
party have been rallied ct whatever
treason, anarchy, or deviltry has been
put down. But nobody apologised, right
out plain, fraud and balot-box stuffiing.
We all remember that nobody then.any
more than now, in so many words,
justified thugs. repeaters, or forgers.
Everything men could do to prevent the
passage of the act was done, but we wor-
ried through, and for the first time in
years New York had an election approach
Ing fairness. A leading Democratic
paper called upon the populace to arm
and pitch the officers of the election
into. the river Other like papers spoke
in like strain, but rioters have a whole
some fear Of the beak and claw of
national power, and SO they did not
resort to force, and citizens were allowed
to vote, and the votes were counted with
an approach to fairness. Such were our
modes of redress.
What has been the remedy of those
d:ening themselves similarly aggrisved
in Louisiana? The right to vote has
been as free there as in New York;
repeat again that every citizen of the
South has had to vote, and all white men
could vote freely. But, as sparks fly
upward, discomfort has run into violence,
and Louisiana has been kept rocking
and sea-sick in the throes of unending
revolution. Events have bean directed
by men ss rash and insane in council as
the maniacs roaring at the doors of the
French Assembly, who, in the name of
humanity, flooded France with blood and
in the name Of relig ion, would have
dethroned the Monarch of the Skies.
Murder, persection, and barbarous hate
preyed upon the poor and the defenseless
All seasons have been seasons of terror:
all localities have been the abodes of
fear. Thirty-fve hundred murders and
woundings In eight years saps Sheridan,

AVERAGE FEED OF COWS,--At q
meeting Of milk producers in Mas
sacbusetts some time since, Mr..
Wetherell stated that COWS upon an
average need fortyfve pounds of
hay per day or it's equivalent whilst
giving milk. That large COWS
produce more milk for the amount Of
feed given than small ones. That
scrub cows will give annually / 400
quarts of milk, whilst the Holstein
and some other breeds will produce
1900. All COWS should be kept
clean, as well as their surroundings.
In producing Winter milk, COWS
without grain will do nothing.

EXTRACT FROM SENATOR
CONKLING'S SPEECH.

The speech Of United States Senator
Coukling on the Louisiana question is
said by some who heard it to be the
ablest speech ever made in Congress. In
the course of the speech he instituted a
comparison between Louisiana and New
York in the suffering of wrongs and the
remedies applied. The following, in
this connection, may be taken as IA
specimen of the speech:
What is the excuse of the disturbsrs of
Louisiana? What is the apology for the
unending commotion in which she has
been kept? The plea was made by the
Senator from Ohio. It is that Kellogg
was not in truth elected, but was falsely
counted in. Suppose he was, does that
Justify the nameless horrors which have
stained the annals of Louisiana?
OtherStates have known deeper wrongs
than these, but they did not resort to the
blade, the bullet, and the torch New
York has known deeper wrongs than
these. 1t is an open secret now that in
1868 John T. Hoffman was falsely counted
into the office of Governor when the
people had elected John A. Griswold.
The count was falsifed, by forgery, more
than 10000 in two counties This was
known then, better known than it now
that Kellogg did not receive mai ority
of the votes Of Louisiana in 1872. Who
did it: The managers ofthe Democratic
party and they seated in theLegislature
year after year, men whom the people
had voted down. The same regime made
the courts, and made them corrupt.
They emitted forged naturalization
papers by tens ofthousands. They made
the Returning Boards, and made them
corrupt. They made the inspectors of
election, and the inspectors polluted
and debauched the ballot-box They
divided the chief city Of the State By
suddenly redistrictipg it on the eve of
election so as to disect blocks and houses
so that men domiciled in the same house
could vote and repeat in different cleo
tion districts. WELDING usurped sx
ecutivs and legislative power, they
plundered sthe treasury by the most
colossal robbery of modern times, BY
such astounding means a political party
for years dominated State of 5000, 600
people, and held it by the throat. They
made, taxes assessments, tributes and
penalties of political submlssion
What did we do? Not ruthless
violence. We did not scourge, kill and
burn. We did net butcher men, women
and children by the light Of heir blaz-
ing homes Finally, we did not seize
the capital city of the State, barr1cade its
streets, shoot down its police and
erect reign of terror on the ruins
of law. We perseve1ed in peaceful
remedies.
We asked Congress for constitutional
enactment to break the hold of organic
cd violence and fraud on the ballot box,
tnat citizene might vote and that their
votes might be counted. How vast reciY-

In the binding, whirling snow,

Roll his body while we go;
Plant him up againat tree.
Fix him up pair Of hands,
Then pair Of funny legs,
Count how many feet he stands

Nimbls fingers, how tksy fly!
Laughing cheeks are cherry red;
Punch him here and there an eye,
What precious pumpkin head!
Ringing shouts are in the air
Now he's done, except the noise
Pop him here and pop him there
