Trnde Revival.
LONDON, Dec. 12th.-The Man
chester Guardian, in its trade re-
port, says: There was strong
market Monday, and prices further
advanced, but the most striking
feature is the disparity between the
views of buyers and sellers and the
consequent diminishing value of
transactions.
The EnspeIini C0uncsi.
LONDON, Dec. 1zth.-A well in
formed correspondent of the No
tionat Zeitung says that he thinks
the Russian Imperial Council
which was to have been held yes
terday under the Presidency of the
Emperor, was summoned not go
much to consider the question OF
peace or war as how best to retire
from the present diplomatic atti-
tude- OF aggression. A new war
would produce an explosion calcu-
lated to shatter the whole organism
of the State. The last war proved
that foreign enterprises do not re-
move the peril involved in the
passive opposition of society to the
present system OF ment-a
peril greater than the desperate
conspiracies of Nihilists.
Tho Proposed rsItciesI Reforms.
LONDON, Dec. 12th.-A St.Peters-
burg correspondent telegraphs: Nc
vast constitutional reforms are al
all meditated. Any sudden revis
ion from the existing regime to 9
modern constitutional one would be
! impracticable. The recent attempt
upon the life of the Gar must nec-
essarily delay any great change in
q liberal sense. Great anxiety pre-
walls here in the expectation of the
new repressive measures foreshad-
owed in that part of the Czar's
speech at Moscow, in which he
spoke of the necessity of eradicat-
ing the spirit of sedition.

OUR dairy interests have undergone a
marked change within the past two years.
Good dairy stock is scarcer now than then,
and there are fewer large operatives, but a
much greater number Of those who carry
on the business on a small scale in onnec
ton with other branches of husbandry.
The prices have materially revived this fall.
This is owing to the increased consumption
and the fall of in production of a good ar
ticle. Cheese is quite firm at good figures,
and butter is going at spring prices, ere
cold weather sets in and should the winter
be severe will still advance but if we have
open weather many farmers will feed and
make butter during the winter, which, ow-
ing to the low price of roots and bran and
shorts, will pay well and this, together
with what may be brought from abroad in
consequence of open roads to the railroad
may keep the prices at about what they are
at present, but should a sudden cold SNAP
come the prices are liable to 60 beyond the
reach of many consumers, as the country
will not at this date stand more than 80
cents per pound for butter. And when it
goes beyon this consumption will diminish
rapidly. Small diaries may be run at a
profit this winter and we hope all who are
prepal ed to will keep at work and supply
as near as possible tie demand, and keep a
foreign product from orr markets.

rHE HORSE.

We take pleasure in presenting our read
ers in this issue the portrait of the elegant
young Percheron stallion, "Chere," winner
OF the first prize and gold medal at the Uni
versal Exposition of Paris, 1878. The IA
nous race to which this horse belongs has
become thoroughly established in the United
States, and a Percheron-Norman Stud Book
is published in which the annual importa-
hons and native pure-bred animals entitled
to register are duly recorded.
The great popularity of this breed has
been attained by the success of the cross up
on all classes of native mares, The uni
formity of the get OF these stations, and the
certainty with which they impart their W
notwithstanding compactness, weight and
vigor to their offspring-have made them
favorites among all who are DESTROYS of
breeding horses adapted to use upon the
farm, or that can be readily sold on the mar
ket at high prices.
We nave always striven to induce farmers
to use greater care in the improvement of
all classes of stock and have advocated
the selection of the veay best pure bred s5res
for breeding, as the most certain way to ac-
complish that end. AS we learn from time
to time of the importations to the United
States of the choicest animals of their kind
to be found in Europe for this purpose we
feel that our labor has not been lost and
that our teachings which are bringing
wealth to the agricultural community of
the country.

COOLING VS.. NATURAL SETTING.

In the Mich Zeitung a correspondent
gives the results OF his observations upon
cooling milk for cream and butter, one por-
ton being set in it's natural state, the other
having passed through a milk cooler, and
the experiments being carried forward dur
ing spring, summer and winter alike. His
conclusions are as follows: ''There is no es-
sential difference between cool and uncool-
ed milk, so far as cream-raising capacity is
concerned. The timed iron pans give a
higher per centage of fat than the wooden
receptacles. In summer the yield Of cream
from the cooled milk is greater than that
from the uncooled, because its souring is
longer retarded. It is at this time of the
year that the tin pans serve better than the
wooden troughs. The butter made from
cooled milk keeps far better than that from
the uncooled."

LIV { <.

THE past twelve months have marked a
general revival of every branch of our stock
interests. Cattle, Notwithstanding the raw
ages of the black leg, are selling from three
to seven dollars higher than one year since,
and the demand continues. Sheep are firm
and prices are a shade better tor unacc]l-
mated sheep than a year ago, and there are
thousands of dollars in our banks awaiting
a favorable opportunity to find investment
at the going prices. Horses are also in
good demand. The receipts of fine horses
from the states during the past year exceed
that of any previous one, yet there IS no
preceptible change in market price. "A
healthier state of affairs than prevails
among our stock interests does not exist
anywhere.
