Sailing the MILK Instead of the Curds.

Sailing the MIX Instead of the Curtls.
A correspondent writes us that he
has seen it suggested that cheese can
be sailed with best results when the
salt is added to the milk instead of the
curds, and he inquiries "whether this
plan has any advantages, and how
much salt is required per gallon of
milk"
We are not in favor of sailing cheese
by adding salt to the milk, for several
reasons, among which may be named
the large quantity of salt required ana
the spelling of the whey for feeding
purposes.
It is true the sailing of the milk dis
tributes the salt evenly through the
mass and avoids the labor of mixing
the salt with the curds; but these ad-
vantages are not sufficient, it would
seem, to recommend its adoption
among dairymen, and if the value of
the salt and whey be taken into &C.
count, the gain by this practice would
hardly balance the loss. We have
tried sailing the milk, but have not
discovered that any Improvement is
made in the quality Of the cheese, nor
do we know that any Improvement is
claimed by such manner of sailing.
Tie usual quantity of salt required
for sailing cheese when it is applied
to the curd is from 2 ITO to lbs. Of
salt for 1000 lbs. Of milk. Now, if
the salt was added directly to the
milk before coagulation, it would re-
quire at the rate Of about 3 ] 4 OF. salt

On the Beach at Long Branch.

A Bohemian writes from Long
Branch: There was a western girl
here yesterday who had never seen
the ocean before. Aldebaran took
her in. All she knew about the ocean
was that it was salt but the salt she
had always used was pumped in Michi
gan. She had heard of salt makerel,
but her pa bought lake wlitefish.
Oysters, yes she had beheld can.
but they were not salts. She had read
of sharks in scripture. s
AS she stood in her bare feet, white
as the Aforesaid whiteish, with her
hair done up in an eel-skin bag, and
looked from the bluff upon the Allan
tic, Aldebaran sympathized with her
emotion. He knew that site felt the
vast antiquity of that silver bowl, a

The st. Louis Republican does not
fancy by any means the acquittal of
General Babcock. IL thus tersely sum
marizes the moral effect of verdict of
"not guilty" ":
Without, then, going behind the
decision of the jury TO inquire into the
facts upon which acquittal Is based, it
il painfully apparent that the result
whether In accordance with the law
and the evidence or not-has added
largely to the strength of the element
which has for years debauched the adj
minstration, corrupted national legis-
latlon, dcmoraliaed popular sentiment,
and plundered the public treasury.
Secretary Brstow will find his posi-
ton In the Cabinet more uncomfort-
able than ever; his attempts to destroy
the ring and punish those connected
herewith will be more hampered and
embarrassed than ever; the day OF the
cOuntry's deliverance from the yoke OF
scoundrels and scoundrelism Will be
farther OIL than ever, and the subsi-
died champions Of fraud and rascality
will be holder and more defiant than
ever. In short, the event which is a
very great blessing to General Bah
cock will be, from his peculiar rela-
tons to parties less fortunate than
himself u curse to the nation-that is,
II public honesty and purity have any
thing to do with the presentand future
well-being Of the nation. Once more
the ring looms up in Its original pro-
portions, "bigger than the Govern
ment;" and from Joyce and Mcdonald
In their cells, down to the lowest gaugey
who has drawn u precarious revenue
from crooked whiskey, there will run
a thrill of congratulatlon and joy-the
first fruit of hope newly risen from the
depths of despair.
One force, and only one, can coun-
teract the evil power thus set in mo-
tlon, and that force is public opinion.
General Babcock may be innocent or
guilty, but there Is no sort of doubt
about the existence of the conspiracy
with which he was alleged to have
been associated nor Is there any doubt
of what that conspiracy did when

legitimate successors will do as soon as
the present excitement has sufii-
GENTLY abated. II the people, while
recognizing the authority of the legal
forms which have removed bur-
den from the shoulders of the Presi-
dents private Secretary, will take the
verdict for just what it is worth and
no more, and by their voices and votes
continue the fight against the common
enemy, that enemy may be finally
overcome. But if, on the contrary,
the people allow themselves to be be-
guiled with the idea that the result OF
the Babcock trial has somehow under
mined the theory upon which all the
prosecutions have rested, and lapse
into Indifference, they will most assur-
eddy fall again into the hands of the
ring sooner or later, and when they dc
