DAIRY DEPART E 7.
THE ANGELN BREED OF CATTLE.

We find an interesting account OF t'lls
breed of cattle in the last Journal Of the Roy
al 4 qricultmul Society of England, which
cannot fail 70 interest those of our readers
engaged in dairy h%usbandry in the United
States and Canada. We copy from Prof.
Tisserand's article on the industrial affairs OF
Denmark, a brief description of his new
race of cattle.
This race is of small size and cannot De
compared to any breed more closely than 10
the Ayrshires, whose qualities and size IL
partakes. The color of the Angeln COWS IS
red-some times bright and clear, sometimes
deep and even dark-otten being spotted
with white (these white spots hNe since
been pointed out as evidence of impure line
age), and the hair is generally tipped with
dark color the skin is thin and supple, and
all the COWS have the distinguishing charac-
tiers of good'milkers. Head somewhat del
icate, although bony looked at i'll profile 1t
has a pyramidal form, and shows a large
brow: nostrils well open, and Il somewhat
straight forehead; lower jaws very diver
gent; eyes docile and lively horns long.
thin and we'll placed; neck long and very
slender . back not always perfectly straight,
backbone projecting, and brisket girthlng
most behind the shoulders headquarters
roomy udder large and well placed, and
the milk vein generally very much devel-
oped; legs and tail very slender; TANKS
hollow and bones projecting.
The Angeln cow presents, %Sa,fact, all the
characters and all the defects of u good
milking breed; it's body has the form OF a
pyramid, of which the base is formed by the
~hindtquarters and the summit by the fore
quarters, which are very slight. While in
mills the cow remains very thin; not only
does it convert all its food into milk, but it
appears also to perform the same operation
with fat and muscles Of its w body ; but
when it goes dry it fattens easily.
The Angeln breed, in fact. may be re-
garded as one of the best milking races in
existence. The average weight of cow is
from 700 to 800 pounds, and its annual milk
produce 40 gallons, about 1000 pounds.

Spanish breeds of Merinos i'll Vermont.
Therefore, they claim to hold a superior
band of sheep. Long staple. thick coats and
fine fiber has, all through, been the drift in
crossing up; which result has been attained
to a high degree of perfection here.
The breeders of fine wooded sheep in Ver-
mont have recently formed an association,
mutually, and on a firm basis. One object
of their meeting is to put forth a volume of
recorded pedigrees at an early day Noted
breeders are now striving to get their f1ocks
entered in the records of an Institution
which is already looked to as the standard
authority Oh the pedigrees of Vermont Me-
rinos.
There seems to be a new life and interest
looming up in the Green Mountain horizon :;
partly caused by the great Centennial tri-
umphs at Philadelphia, those other States
had hoped to secure the honor of showing
the best animals. and thus prove to the
world THAT they had succeeded in trans
planting the prestige of the fame of our
best flocks to their own States. 1t appears
that the mantles of former breeders had fall
en- upon the shoulders of discreet and young
err students OF ours, who have made an adj
vance Oh the old-thne standards in improve
ment in carcass and WOOL
At this great national and international
show the exhibitors of Vermont Merinos IL
ceived awards wherever, there was a direct
competition, and took every special premi-
UNI offered.
We do not claim that many other flock
masters interested in the breeding of the
finest carcass and grades of wool elsewhere
have not met with equal success from theirs.
They nave selected stock with great care
and expense from the most noted Merino
fiocks in Vermont. and continue to keep up
their sheep to a high degree of perfection,
by %judicious breeding from home produc-
ions and infusing occasionally their finest
stock sheep with the best blood obtained at
the East. 1t would appear that in the
sales the stock that have been sold for breed
on the Kern county Merino farms have met
with equal success from year to year. The
receipts on sales for breed alone have aver
aged annually over $4,000. Last year the
sales reached up to S $1,000, gold, which must
be considered a very handsome income from
that department OF industry here and else

prepared a cipher telegram to the Sec
rotary of the National Democratic COM
mittee, asking the latter to place $40,
900 to his credit for the purpose of
paying lawyers fees, and other neces-
sary expenses connected with, the
anticipated litigation concerning the
issuance of the Governor certificates.
Patrick requested him to endorse this
telegram because he kelly was known
to- NatioAal Democratic Committee,
and it was desirable to secure prompt
action. Senator Kelly said he
could not, of course, read the cipher,
and accepting Patrick's statement OF
it's meaning, endorsed it without hes:
itatiOn upon the foregoing assurance
as to it's contents. The Senator also
states that after Patrick left Oregon.
he kelly earnestly endeavored to get
money sent from New York to pay the
fee of the lawyers who had been re-
tanned, and as it did Lot come in time
he himself raised $3 200 on his own
note, $50 900 Of which he paid to Hall,
Thompson and Durham, the lawy ers,
and the remaining 5000 were devoted
to paying the expenses of bringing
Caswell. one of the Democratic cleo.
tors, to Salem, as it was then thought
he had obtained higher vote than

A Wonderful Invention.

From the New ork News.
The French papers tell us of a
wonderful invention, which will en-
able the feeblest among US to switch
the world with noble workmanship"
The horse OF the future is not to be
driven by ordinary reins, but by cleo.
tricity combined with them. The
coachman is to have under his seat an
electro. magnetic apparatus, which he
works by a little handle. One wire is
carried through the rein to- the bit and
another to the. crupper, so that cur
rent once set up goes the entire length
of the animal along the spine. "a
sudden shock will, we are, gravely as.
sured, stop the most violent runaway
or the most obstinate jibber. The
creature, however strong and how
ever vicious, is Sat. once transformed
into a sort Of inoffenSive horse wood,
with the feet firmly nailed to the
ground.'a Curiously enough. the op.
posite effect may be produced by a
succession of small shocks. Under
the influence of these the veriest
screw can be suddenly endowed with
4 vigor and fire INDISPENSABLE, and
even lhe R0sinante of Don Quixote

Vice.President elect Wheeler never

bus, the train stopped at GAINESVILLE for
dinner, but he didn't get out. It was
soon known at the depot, however,
that he was on the train, and crowd
went into the car to see him and
shake hands with the next Vice Presi-
dent. AS q number of gentlemen were
standing around him, talking, pop.
eyed young fellow pushed his way
through, carrying an open notebook
of a generous size and a pencil in his
hand. It was the ''local" e Zanes-

The young man said he did, and was
about to PROFOUND a question on his

rupted by asking about GAINESVILLE, it's
| inhabitants, products, manufactures,
cost of living, condition of business !;
following up these with other ques.
tions relative to the history of the
place and it's prospects; and he showed
a wonderful interest in the newspaper
with which the young man was con-
nected, it's circulation, advertising pat.
ronage, and competition. Several
times did the young man venture to
change the subject of the conversation
but Mr.. Wheeler piled him with ques-
tions until the train moved off, and
the local was compelled to leave the
CAR. Mr.. Wheeler enjoyed telling how
he outwitted An interviewer, but. the
young man had the advantage of him.
MIR. Wheeler might parry his ques-
tons, but he could not curb the press.
The young man printed the following
paragraph
