sIcott IS In Canada.

New YORK, Jan. 3I-The Herald to-day
has a dispatch from Terrebonne, Quebec,
stating thai Silcot', the cashier of the
Sergeant at Arms of the United States House
of Representatives, who absconded Novem-
Der 10 with about S96 coo. the proceeds Of
forgeries of the names Of members who
we're accustomed TO draw their salaries
through him, has been seen in that place.
The correspondent also says that he saw
Louise Thibaulf, the woman for whom be
left his wife The defaulier looks III at ease,
and his companion, who is living with her
father, also shows that she has had her
troubles.
Silcott insists that the charges Of forgery
are false He says there is scarcely men,
Der of the House 10 whom he did not ad-
vance his pay every month and receive notes
as receipts. When he left Washington for
New York he says that he had not the re-
motest idea of leaving be United States. As
proof of this be poinied to the fact that on
the Wednesday before last Thanksgiving be
drew $4,000 from the Treasury, and with
this amount be took ap the notes Of some
thirty members which had been discounted
in the National Metropolitan Bank. He an
sisted that he had but little money when be
left New York.
Silcott also said that the stories about his
connection with Miss Thiebsult were false,
as she had nothing TO do with his fall In
conclusion he remarked that he did not care
for all the detectives in the United States
and Canade. as he had obtained legal advice,
and felt assured that be had committed no
offense that was extraditable.

JoHSsrowS, Pa, Feb. 2,-Several copies OF
a paper are now in circulation among tie
members Of the Presbyterian Church, ofthis
city, asking for the resignation of the elders
of that church. The paper has already about
100 signatures, and if $50 more signatures
are Obtained it will constitute a majority Of
the congregation. Ifthat number is secured
the elders will probably resign without any
more trouble.
The congregation felt very indignant againt
some Of these gentlemen because they were
not at the service last Sunday to receive
several persons into membership in the
church but this is accounted for by the
fact that The elders have promised among
themselves not to go to the service until the
present trouble is over The trouble seems
TO be as far from settlement as it ever was,
there being more ill-feeling bstween the
members OF DR.. Beale's faction and Elder
Fulton's faction than before, though Or.
Beale's party has received a number Of &C
oessions during the past week. q

Insane ASYLUM Horrors.

New YoRK, Jan. 3I.-The first annual re-
port of the New York Commission in Lnnacy
bas been made public. A considerable
amount of space is devoted to comparison
of State care and county care of the insane
and the report takes strong ground in favor
of the former. A large number Of shocking
incidents observed in the county institutions
are related. One aged woman afflicted with
turbulent dsmentis. was found confined in
a cell-fike room. Her bed was indescribably
filthy and the floor was wet and soiled, the
odor of which was terribly offensive. Her
only attendants were two pauper girls, who
brought her food in basin, which they set
on her filthy bed
In another place two filthy patti ents were
placed In the same bed. The Commission
concludes that, however feasible may be the
theory of county care. it has fallen far
short, in practice, of the hopes entertained
for it, Its difficulties and defects seem TO be
ineradicable, and the custom should be
abolished by the Legislature.

Kicking Cows.

Cows acquire the habit of kicking and
stepping about while the milking is per-
formed on account of timidity or pain
and this habit becomes chronic by rough
and brutal treatment. Milking the COW
is in measure a surgical operation, and
during the process if she cannot or will
not be reasonably quiet she should be
confined by some restraint other than
human muscle, for the cows strength is
the greatest The weaker party gets
angry, and rough treatment is the result
hence the necessity of some method of
conveniently restraining the COW within
the limits of human strength.
Cows sanctioned, and standing at a
'hoist" do not ck with the right foot,
which is the most objectional one for
kicking, but if she is bent on kicking she
soon puts her right foot in advance of the
other, which shifts her greatest weight
or the left foot, and then she is ready
for kicking. My plan is to compel the
COW to "hoist" and hold her there. This
is best done by placing her in the stanch-
ion, and taking small rope OF strap,
about eight feet long, with loop in one
end loop it around the left hind leg and
dropIt down just above the dew claws,
then pass it around the stanchion one
and half times, draw the foot well fer
ward and confine it there. This requires
so little strength that there is no cause
for anger even in the most irritable rer-
son. Some cows give up at once, while
others struggle until they become accus-
toned to the restraint That mode of
confning them is particularly valuable
to young heifers; all cows that step about
while milking are ordinary kickers.
Sometimes find it insufficient in which
case place the rope around or above the
hsmstring joint and over the top of IL e
stanchion, drawing the foot nearly CT
quite off the floor. If and this is not
sufficient, which is seldom, draw IL e
left foot forward, as first described, and
then confne the other foot backward TO
a ring OF post, and then the cow Is COM
PEELED to stand. Confining the right foot
buck ward is much more muscular task
than drawing the left foot forward, and
requires strong rope,
