PUBLIC DEBT STATEMENT.
Pecu1ations by Naval Purchasing Agent.

SAN Francisco, Cal. Oct. Naval
Paymaster j. S. Cunningham arrived here
last night, to relieve Paymaster Spaulding.
The court of inquiry will assemble at Mare
Island, October 5, to examine Spaulding's 8
accounts, The latter is supposed to be
involved by the peculations of G. M.
Pinney, the late purchasing clerk.
Admiral Rodgers, of the Mare Island
Navy Yard, states that he does not know
the amount of the defalcation, but it is
supposed to be very large. Spaulding last
night stated that the loss will fail on
individuals, not on the department; that
Pinney's frauds consisted in fraudulently
filling up certificates for payments due on
contracts which had been signed in blank by
Spaulding, and hypothecating them to GER
tain parties, with the notes of responsible
parties attached, and that the makers and
indorsers of the notes will be liable. Spaul-
ding claims that he knew nothing of the
transactions until the certificates were pre-.
sented for payment.

DEEP CANS FOR MILK.-Col. Waring,
author of ogden Farm Papers" pub
lished in the AMERICAN AGRICULTURIsT,
says:
Mr.. VIM. Spicer, of West Hallock,
Ill.,, reports experiments with the deep
can:system, and l regard the adoption
of this system SO important to the gen.
|;eral dairy interest of the country, that
Ieinake no apology for my frequent
reference to it. Mr.. S. has made three
comparative trials with cans holding
IS 10 lbs. of milk, and with ordinary
milk pans. On the first trial, the milk
being cooled before setting, the temper
ature of the room SO to SIS deg, and
the cream being taken off forty-eight
hours after setting, there was made l
ID. of butter from 81 $40 lbs of milk
in cans, and l ID. of butter from 81 $40
lbs. of milk in pans. In the next ex-
pertinent the conditions were the same,
except that the temperature was from
As to so deg; the cans made l Id. of
butter from l9 $40 lbs of milk, and
the pans made l ID. of butter from
% 2-1O lbs of milk. In the next trial
the temperature was from 55 to GO deg.
The cans made l h. of butter from
% Ito lbs. of milk and the pans ID.
of butter from 81 $40 lbs. of milk. He
says, "We made several more trials
with about the same results, and not
withstanding the decision of the Sole
bury Farmers Club, or the predictions
of old dairymen, we are setting milk in
deep cans, each of which yields about
1-2 inches of solid cream and a
superior quality of BUTTER
This experiment, like many others
that | have published, supports my
original view that there is neither a
gain nor a loss of quantity resulting
from the deep setting. In any proper
setting, deep or shallow, all the cream
is undoubtedly raised, but the advan-
tage in uniformity of product, improve
ment of quality, and saving of labor,
secured by the deep can system, consti-
tute advantages which it seems to me
that no unprejudiced man can disregard.

A DUTCH COW STABLE.

After looking over the farm we were
taken toward the house, and entered a
large door leading into an enormous
room, the like of which we had never
seen. The walls were neatly white
washed. The little windows were hung
with white curtains. Along each wall
was strip of clean brick-work, aud
next to this a whitewashed gutter; then
came, for a width of about six feet, q
flooring of handsome old Dutch tiles,
well laid; then two rows of upright
posts, the use of which was not at all
obvious Between these rows of posts
was a wide passage way leading the
whole length of the hall. There were
several tables, on which were bright
utensils and some handsome articles of
pottery. We congratulated ourselves
on seeing the largest and cleanest dairy
We had ever met with, but, on a second
look, the absence of milk, and of the
evidence of daily use, led US to inquire,
and we found to our surprise that we
were in the COW stable, which had been
put in order for the Summer Except
for the stanchiens and tying poles, and
the gutter behind the stalls, there was
nothing to indicate the use intended.
Like all Dutch COW stables of the
old style, this was in Summer the show
room of the establishment The tiles
are considered great luxury; but few
families use them Generally, their
place is taken by neatly broomed white
sand. The central alley is foored with
bricks, and just in front of the tying
posts there is a depression or gutter,
also Of brick. These drinking cutters
slope very slightly from one end to the
other Water is pumped in at the up
per end, and is let off at pleasure at the
other The cows stand on a raised
earthen floor, supported by brick wall
at its rear end 1t is this cattle floor
which is in Summer covered with moy-
able tiles; the manure trough is quite
deep, and contains the solid droppings
until they are removed in a barrow.
The urine flows off to the underground
receptacle which collects all the liquid
refuse of the establishment, and which
has pump for iilling the tank cart by
which the meadows are sprinkled
In the loft over the stable the cheeses
are seasoned and prepared for market

Back of this part of the building are
the cheese factory, horse stables, wagon
house tool sheds, etc Leaving these,
and returning through the COW stable,
we passed through q glass door into
sitting room with some handsome artl-
cles of old furniture, and ample evidence
of neatness and comfort. At one side
of this we entered a little office or libra
nv, where we were shown handsome
scientific books and various old objects
of interest, and were requested to in
scribe our names in the visitors book,
which had been we'll filled by travellers
from all parts of the world In the
larger rooms, opposite the glass door
spoken of, is fireplace, and over this a
large mirror Here Mr. Sluis showed
US how he sits in Winter toasting his
shins before the fire, and looking up
from his paper now and then to enjoy
the reflected view of his two rows OF
fine cattle, which seem almost members
of the family. We saw nothing fur
Their of the house, and l am therefore
unable to refute or to verify the stories
that are told of the absurd cleanliness
which is said to be inseperable from
Dutch housekeeping. So far as we did
see, everything was neat and after its
kind tasteful, and in good wholesome
humble order The farmer and his sol
were not distinguishable in appearance
