Collision ON the Sound.

NEW YORK, Oct. 21.-About o'clock this
morning the steamer Bristol when off Hunt
ington, colllded with an unknown sen schooner,
disabling her. As cries for help were heard
the Bristol was Immediately stopped and boats
lowered. Search for the disabled vessel was
kept up an hour without success, and the Bris-
toll proceeded to this city without tidings of the
vessel. Capt. Simmons thinks the vessel must
have headed Immediately for the shore after
the collision and SO got out of the way of the
boats. She may have gone down, but it is
hardly probable.

An English butter-maker of large ex-
perience, who Is now on visit to the
United States for the purpose OF looking
over the cheese and butter diaries, gives
Us the following information concerning
method in practice among the butter
makers in England, for rendering butter
finn and solid during the hot weather.
Carbonate of soda and alum are used for
the purpose, made into powder. For
twenty pounds Of butter one teaspoonful
o. carbonate Of soda and enc teaspoouful
Ofpowdered alum are mingled togetherat
the time of churniug, and put into the
cream. The effect of this powder is to
make the butter come firm aad solid,
and give 1t a clean, sweet favor. It
does not enter into the butter, but It's
action is upon the cream, and it PASSES
OF with the buttermilk The Ingredient.
Of the powder should not be mingled to-
gether until required to be used, or at
the time the cream Is in tie churn ready
for churning.-Le5jagtos. Go-ette.
