CATTLE FOR THE SoUTH.-At a recent
eattle-show in North Carolina there were
exhibited crosses Of Erahmin and Durham
and Brahmin and AYRSHIRE which were
remarkable for their qualities. A bull that
was from q Durham cow by Brahmln bull
at TWEEN y-two months old weighed 1,10O
pounds, and was seventy-eight inches
around the girth, and tiity-three inches from
shoulder.blade TO root OF tail. "A premium
calf from an AYRSHIRE cow by Bfahmin
bull was adiudsed the most beautiful cali
on the ground; and an AYRSHIRE and Brall-
min COW, three years old, gave six gallons
OF milk per day.
Or. ELLZEY thus comments upon the fine
display of this cross:
"Judging from the great and curiousiy
exaggerated variation Of the Brahmins from
tie type of the common cattle, IL might have
been supposed that there was undouhted
snecific distinction, aud that If offspring
could be bad OF all by crossing the two sorts,
they would have been genuine hybrids;
but we find no trace OF infertility. The
Brahams possess many very desirable quail
ties, and we predict that mixed race will
be had. which viii prove more valuable in
our southern States than any cattle ever
known there. Observe above u TWENTY-FIVE
months old Brahmin grade out OF o short
horn cow, weighs i, 100 pounds, very prom
ising for beef ssAyreshire and Brahmin,
three years old, milk six gallons" Very
promising for milk. Now, for work, the
Brahmins are as speedy. active, and endur-
lug as horses. and they are natives OF a hot,
rlalari0us climate. Everything points to
the successful formation OF a most useful
cross-breed for the southern States and per-
haps other localities. =
r. Thesouthern farmer ought to- take great
interest In the progress made In these ex-
perimen.s. The Devon breed has been spe-
cialIy the faFori,ei i'll the cleveland country !;
but there are excellences in these crosses
with the Brahmin that would seem toplace
them above the Devon for they are good
mixers, for which the Deyons are not espe-
Gladly commemorate, and crossed with the
Durham, they have weight, which IS good
for beef, and speed, which makes them good
for dsaught. The alleged activity and
speed of OF the Brahmins reminds, us OF the
Khaisi cattle brought years ago from the
region of the Dead Sea by Captain
Lynch after his Dead Sea expedi-
ton. He presented d bull and COW d that
kind to the state Of Virginia, and they
were entrusted 10: several disting uisbed

THE RAINBOW's TREASURE.
ny IoHx Bovtr o'RrlLLY.


Where the foot of the rainbow meets the field.
And the grass Respondent CLOVIS.
The earth will precious treasure yield.
As the olden story goes.
IN crystal cup are the diamonds piled
For him who can swiftly chase
Over torrent and desert and precipice wild,
To the rainbow's wandering base.
There were two in the field at work one day,
Two brothers. who blithely sung,
When across their valleys deep-winding way
The glorious arch was flung
and one saw naught but sign Of rain,
and feared for his sheaves unbound;
Ana one is away, over mountain and plain
Till the mystical treasure is found
Through forest and stream. in blissful dream
The rainbow lured him on;
With a sirens guile 1t loitered awhile,
Then leagues away was gone.
Over brake and brier he followed fleet;
The people sconed as he passed:
But in Thirst and heat. and with wounded feet
He closed on the prize at last
It's closer and closer-he wins the Ree-
One strain for the goal in sight;
It's radiance falls on his yearning face
The blended colors unite
He layes his brow in the iris beam
He reaehes-Ah woe the sound
From the misty gulf where he ends his dream
And the crystal cup is found!
It's the old, old story. One man VIII read
His lesson Of toll in thesky;
While another is blind to the present need.
But sees with the spirits eye.
You may grind their souls in the seif-same mill.
You may bind them heart and brow;
But the poet will follow the rainbow still,
And his brother viii follow the pillow.
