A Last Glass of Wine,

Hold it up, higher yet, and nearer to
the light, the liquid ruby of the Gaacon
grape, and as the ruddy CLEANS through
the trimming crystal, eye it lovingly, yet
with n soft regret, for We shall look upon
its like no more. Madeira is gone, and
clarct must follow to the limbo of the
lost. Already, from the frontier OF Italy
to the borders of Spain, they are tearing
up the useless vines, and preaching the
walls of long.rcspected vineyards. Hot
Languedoc, sunny Provence, are now as
bare of their most cherished crop rs are
the blacklist plains of Sologne or the
widest heath in Brittany. And the vine
plague spreads and spreads, unchecked,
unstemmed, by all that industry and
science can effect. How serious is the
evil can be measured only by the recol-
lection that 600, 900 French depend for
daily bread on the 10Y persisted vine.
The cause of all this mischief is a little
insect of American origin, which is
rcputed to have been accidentally
brought over to Paris by the Acclima-
tion society. BE this as it may, that

ing lost by passing into the air, DR.,
Voelcker has recommended TO moisten
manure heaps with water, accidulated
with Sulphuric acid Ordinary oil OF
vltroD, TO prevent the escape of ammonia.
This proposal has been adopted by some
farmers, who speak highly of the result.
For my w part, however, J do not
think that any great advantage can fol-
low the use Of acid, for the reason that
it does not wholly prevent the loss OF
ammonia. DIR. Thomas Anderson has
also expressed his doubts as to the utility
of accidulated water for m~oistening dung
heaps. On comparing the quantities OF
nitrogen present in urine and dung, a
marked difference is found TO exist. Ac-
cording to the noted agricultural chem
lit, Boussingault, the urine OF the horse
in its natural state contains three times
as much nitrogen IA its dung, that Of the
COW containing twice as much az its
dung. - AgricuVural EconOmist,

A curious feature brought cut Ivy cx-
aer,ments with milk is that the mixed
milk Of two breeds Of cows will not pro,
Incc ~ much butter AZ will the same
milk churned separately. The reason
given is that the butter globules Of the
milk vary in size, and that in the churn
the larger globuIes are broken first, and
then in mixed milk are Overchurned while
The smaller ones are being broken, and in
this way the quality OF the butter is i'm.
paired ii not seriously damaged. This
theory carried out may also be said, if
correct, 10 affect the churning Of milk
frnm different cows Of the same br, ed.
For instance, we frequently come up with
what are called butter cow" from the
superior quality Of their milk for the plr-
posco OF buttcr.making. There is no doubt
but that their noted superiority is on &C.

ugon more thorough investigation, this
reasoning should prove to be true and in
accord with scientific principles, the
dairyman and the farmer will have TO
make a study Of this business, and after
ascertaining the globuIc capacity Of each

however, that such experiments will be

This declaration is n deferred response
10 one on the same subject made in
Constantinoplc in December or .Ianu-

Sultan's government that Ronmania
was an integral part nj the Ottoman
Empire and that certain formalitics Of
homage to his suzarinn on the part Of

Against that declaration the Prince
protested in vain. II was an expression
Of the purpose of revived Moslemism
TO draw very closely lines that had

they practically ceased TO define or

sufficiently vigorous assertion Conse-
qnentlv the Prince was compelled To
recognize that his Independence, IL II

now makes. No doubt similar de-

II will be remembered that the pro-
iect TO promulgate such declaration
miscarried during the recent war.
There is now very little doubt, we
presume, that the treaty which will
close this war will recognize that Bos

to send to the Sultan he military as
sistance demanded of him, and western
Europe warns him not TO spend in
Ottoman wars the money due TO his
own creditors. If he determines to
bold aloof in the quarrel declaration
of independence on bis part would be
wise, as 1t will not more anger the pow
ers in ConstantInople, and secure Rus
sian favor aud guarantee Of immuni-
ty against the day when peace is
made. BY these early incidents Of
the strife it may be seen how readily
the Sultan's vast domain will crumble
away separate kingdoms how the
Commander of the Faithful may be
deprived Of political and military con-
sequence in Europe, and the Emperor
of Russia yet keep his promise not to
acquire his ncigbbors territory.-N.

oath OF Office has caused him TO re.

and Louisiana This is not the fact.
Democratic Senators and Congressman
refused to appropriate any more money
to the support OF the army unless il
was assigned to do legitimate duty.
Hence the removal from the States
named.
