The milk Of COWS soon after they have
calved, contains more butter and is more ca
silly churned than it is afterwards. About
five months after calving the milk under
goes a change. and the cream is not only
less in quantity, but the butter globules are
smaller. The reason why milk troths in
churning is, that when it sours, alcohol is
formed by the decomposition of the sugar OF
milk, and this causes the milk, when shaken
or beaten, to foam or froth. If this froth
lists to a large extent butter will not come,
and the milk is useless for churning pur-
poses. The longer she cow is after calving
the less is the yield of butter and the less
'nourishment is afforded in her milk.

NANCE.

Mango, or leprosy, is II oGthe most I'M
pleasant and difficult diseases to manage of
all the ailments to which cattle are subject,
requiring the incest care and attention to
render it easy Of cure. An animal badly
nursed will not, under the most skillful treat
ment,. quickly recover. Its causes are, in
the main, due to poor food, which produces
a-debilitated condition Of the system, and in
connection with a wantofcleanliness, causes
a development Of the aca1i, or minute in
sects, exciting very great irritation upon the
skin and carsnlg the COW to rub herself
against every object with which she comes
in contact. The hair falls off; a scurfy APP
pearance Of the skin is %perceptible and the
animal, is poor in condition and milk. The
great trouble in treating this disease springs
from Its contagious character for no sooner
is the animal ottentimes, once free from the
>qcaai than it comes in contact with some OBJ
ject against which it has previously been
rubbing, when the acaaS which were upon
that object are again brought in contact
with the animal, and the disease is repro
duced. If, Immediately after ths. proper APP
plications are made, the animal is removed
to other quarters, and not allowed to re-
turn to the former ones for six or eight
weeks, there is generally speaking, but little
trouble in treating the disease.
Take the animal upon a warm, sunny
day, and with scrubbing-brush cleanse the
skin thoroughly with Castile-soap and wa

FAMILY AFFAIRS In TURKEY.

Since writing our general papers on
Turkey, the tidings has arrived that
the favorite son of the late Sui
tan had been put to death; this was
afterwards contradicted then reafirm-
ed then followed the news that his
widow and two or three more children
and his mother had all been assassina-
ted, and all these have been vehe-
mently affirmed and as vehemently
denied, and nothing is certain. Upon
the whole our opinion inclines to the
affirmative, it has been the invariable
practice hitherto that in all Ori-
entail revolutions (and their name is
legion) the death of the deposed mon
arch is accompanied by that of all the
members of his family whose exist
ence could cause any apprehension to
the usurping monarch, and Turkey is
very conservative country, Murad Eff
fende would hardly venture upon set
ting aside the venerated precedents and
usages of his family; we imagine they
are all gone mother and children and
grand mother; old ladies are apt to be
troublesome on such occasions they
grumble and scold most unreasonably

potentates can't be expected to have

Tue Knoxville Tribune comment
ing upon the fast time of the lightning
train from New York to San Francisco
a short time since, says: The light
ming train reached San Francisco in
safety, Sunday morning at 7:25 O'Clock,
having made the run from New York
to that point-a distance of3, 3l7 miles
in the extraordinary time of eighty
three hours and thirty-6ve minutes.
The average, therefore, including stop
pages, was within a fraction of forty
miles an hour. The undertaking was
to make the run in 81 hours, and twas
accomplished in twenty-six minutes
less than schedule time. The fastest
running was done on the eastern divis-
ion OF the road, the train having gained
nearly nine hours at the halfway point.
This afforded a margin for a slackeped
rate Of speed over the western and
more difficult portion of the road.
This feat, considering the magnitude
and boldness of the experiment, is the
most extraordinary yet accomplished
ia raiIroading. Twenty years hence,
probably. travellers across the CONT
nent will marvel thatany such achieve
ment should, in the centennial year
have excited any special wonder"

THETRUE WORK OF CONVENTIONS

We extract the following from an
Address of Albert V. Goodpasture,
of Livingston, Tenn, before the Citi-
zens of Lebanon, March 81, 1876: :"
But, fellow-citizens, there is ques-
ton which, it is thought by some, may
disturb the equanimity and concord of
the Democratic party | refer to the
National Finance. But, although our
country is in a most extraordinary
monetary condition, | have been able
to find nothing in tito justify the fear
that it will MARI the harmony, or en-
danger the success of our party, if our
representatives do their duty in the
National Convention. Besides the
question of the abolition of the pres
ent iniquitous National Bank system,
which we, as party that upholds hon
esty, justice and economy and not
fraud, extravaganza, and monopoly,
are all agreed should be done, there is
but one principle which is broad en-
ough to form a plank in the platform
of the National Democracy. tits this:
that it is the duty of the Government
to furnish the people with good and
sound currency, and in volume sufi :
cient to answer all their purposes of
exchange. And upon this too, we are
all agreed, without a dissenting voice,
from one end of the union to the other;
and it must, and does, constitute the
only financial plank in the platform Of
the Democratic party.
But there are two other questions
growing out of this, and subordinate
to it, which have been considered the
quicksands of the party L. Shall this
currency consist of specie or of paper?
2. Shall its presentvolume be increased
or diminished? Of these questions |
have only this to say, that while it is
true that they are national questions,
yet il is equally certain that they are
neither measures of the Democratic
nor Republican party, and whenever
we make them so, we change the whole
basis Of political parties, as they now
exist in this country, and found them
