THE GALAXY OF THE SENATE.
A]<

The stars of first magnitude forming the
galaxy of the Senate, though shining with
different lusters and various tints, were
Clay, Webster, Calhoun, Benton, Sumner,
Seward, Douglas, and Fessenden. No two
of these at all resembled, yet each, in his
own peculiar way, was powerful, magnifi.
cent, and vast in influence. The entire
country felt and acknowledged their sway,
and beyond the mighty waters of ocean
other lands looked up to these wonders with
increasing admiration and sensation akin
to awe. Their light fingers yet in our po-
litical sky, and long shall remain, perhaps
forever, though the source is no more visi-
BILE; shall remain as an inspiration to the
present and the hereafter.

Why we should have crumbly but

In winter butter fats are harder than
in summer, and needs more heat. The
cream should be ripened at a higher
heat. The cream should, if "slow' in
coming, be warmed up above 60, and
when the butter comes, wash it ont
clear of butter milk, with water,
not much below GO degrees, and
then work it over ana salt it before it
gets hard Do all this work at the one
operation. 1t does not hurt butter to
warm it up to a point whore it works
Just right tor it has now been ascer
tanned hat the butter of not only diff
lerent seasons, as well, has varying
melting points; and if this is not taken
into consideration, crumbly white but

and we continue to make butter by Il

implies understanding some Of the re
cullements of the art.

chickens.

There are many reasons why horns
should be bred out of cattle intended
for beef. The main reason is owing to
wounds inflicted one upon another
when closely penned or crowded III cars
and upon steamboats, on their way to
market. 1t is also argued that horns
are useless appendages and have no
marketable value. In cattle bred
wholly or partially for ornamental p0r-
poses, it woull detract from their bean
tv to do away with their horns, as IN
the case Of the Jersey. The Jersey de
prived of its horns wonld lose halt its
attractiveness to the eye, and might be
likened to a sheep shorn Of its WOOL
But in cattle raised solely for beef pur-
poses and nothing else, and where
beauty has no practical value, we think
hornless breed preferable. This SUBJ
ject is now attracting comment through
the agricultural press both here IN
America and in Europe. J }. Mech,
the famous scientific farmer of Great
Britain, has the following to say on the
subject;
Il hate cruelty, but it is real hu-
manity to remove the horns OF cattle,
and at the cost Of temporary suffering
to secure to them a peaceful enjoyment
for the rest Of their lives Those who
have seen the constant fear and dis
turbance to which horned cattle are ex
posed in limited space, such as COW
cred or open fArnyard, and the injuries
Inflicted by horns, must come to the
conclusion. that without horns the ami,
mails can feed and rest in pcace-with
horns, much Of the farmers profit must
disappear"

care OF Early Lymbs.F

The first lamb of the season will be
likely to appear about this time, and to
a careful shepherd this is a matter OF
anxiety. The new born lamb is weak
thing, and the eve is at times not near
ly so motherly as she should be; con-
sequently the young thing is in danger
of being lost unless care is given to IT,
Chilling is the greatest danger. II
kept warm, the lamb can do very we'll
without nourishing for few hours,
and a little warmed, fresh cows milk,
given with teaspoon will strengthen it
until it can be returned to the eve and
helped to suck, after which it will be
able to take care of itself. The Scotch
shepherd, whose tlocks range the eX'
posed mountain pastures, keeps fire
IN his hut and warna blanket in which
to nestle the lambs which are dropped
in stormy weather. After successfully
battling with its proverblal adversary
for twenty-four hours, the lamb is u.s.
ually past danger if ordinary care is
exercised to avoid accidents.
The profit to be derived from early
lambs which can be made ready tor
market by April or May should be an
incentive, both to keep a small flock
and to care for it in the best of man
ncr. The flock should be an annex to
every farm; it costs little to feed, and
the care Of it comes mostly at u season
when there is leisure to give it. There
is no reason why the farmer who wall
90 to the cost Of providing warm
poultry house with a front of wide sash
oren to the south to receive the sun,
should not do as much for his flock,
and have a shed thus provided tor the
ewes with early lambs, or at least tor
the laluOs for a day or two. Alter
that period is over, this protection VIII
not be needed. 1t would be necessary
to protect the sash inside with bars to
prevent the ewes from breaking the
glass. A sort Of artificial mother too
might equally well be provided for the
lambs, as for the much less valuable
chickens,

The Mining and Financial Record
OF New York city still keeps up its
noble fight against the Goldites OF
Wall street. In recent issue it says;
In our last issue we had occasion to
refer to and 10 deprecate the visible
effects OF that spirit OF antagonism
which the members of Congress from
this city and the East had exhibited
30 Extensively toward Western and
Southern interests as to excite coun-
ter antagonism that would be sure to
be prejudicial to the interests OF the
people OF the East, as the Star news
paper has recently pointed out most
lucidly. During the present week we
have had another illustration of this
rntoward misunderstanding antago'
nism, the seeds of which, sown by
New York members of Congress, like
the dragons teeth of the Grecian
fable, are fast terminating into an
overpowering opposition to measures
that are proposed from this quarter,
Some weeks ago, for example, a lead
ing member OF the House from Ken
lucky, having proposed TO establish 0
sub-Treasury office at Louisville-the
proper committee recommended the
establishment OF such an office,
However, the present Treasurer Of
the United States, late OF Wall street,
took upon himself to have his views,
strenuously adverse to such course,
communicated to Congress, and Mr.,
Abram S. Hewitt Of this city opposed
the measure upon grounds which, Il
radically sound, would equally apply
we think, TO the sub-Treasury office
