Report of the Newberry Agricultural So. ciety on Cattle. The Chairman of the Committee on Cattle, respectfully submits the following Report The condition of this portion of our etock, renders it highly important, that a report should annually be read before our Society; and that no neglect should be at tributed on his part he submits such infor mation as ho has been able to collect : When we consider the important part, which cattle form in our domestic econo my, we ought to be induced to give them all the care and attention, which they re quire. Instead of this, we too frequently find that neglect, almost utter neglect, is their lot. Whoever intends to commence the work of improvement in stock, must first direct his attentionto the introduction of a good breed; for aiy person, who will lay prejudice aside, will perceive at once that the improved breed, which has been in troduced among us, is - much superior to the common stock of the country. Al though in many instances, gross imposition has been practiced upon the community by our: stock driving neighbours, in in troducing an inferior breed of cattle, for thorough breeds, yet it has been the means, by resorting to the piuiplood, of furrish ing a cross, which in time, with a judi. cious course of management, will produce an excellent race of cattle.-lIn recomfen ding a breed for this purpose. I fell confi dent that for the general improvement of our stock, the full breed short born will prove the best. It will itmprove their~ milking properties, and give them size and an apitude to faten more rapidly. It wirll improve thecm in the points essential to good beef cattle, giving them lighter heads and necks and better hind quarter -giving themi weight in the proper poits all desirable in meat cattle. A. B. Allen of New York contended, that it was use less to import A yershires, at a high price, when they could, by breeding their best milkers of the common stock to short horn bulls, produce animals of the same quali ties at a trifling cost. It is true we have slot as good common stock as those to whici:~Mr..Allen alludes, as they are re motely descended from the - crefords and Devons ; but the experiment has already been commenced by a member cf our So ciety. (Mr. WVm. Summer. of Pomnaria,) and calves need only be seen, to be con vinced of the great benefit to be expected from this cross. The milk cow requires a generous supply of suitable food, if you would have her give a regular, supply of good wholesome and nutritious milk, wvhich is all important in mnakinig the best quality of butter.--Corni meal, shorts, wvheat-bran, with peas. ptumpkins and tur neps, in their proper seasons, furnish the principal food. An - important article of food has been almost wholly neglected ; I allude to corn.stalks. There are many stalks in old land which scarcely produce - shot; these sh ould be gathered when the fodder is usually tAdhen, or 'before, and cut up in cutting michines, (the improved machines which are made durable, an ~seer-an excellentpurpose,) and a 'regular supply given every day ; the tops of corn 'even after the fodder is taken off, should be fed in this, way, as it will give a large quantity of foiod, which if left to die jipon the stalks is wholly lost. In the north, mnanyfarmers, who own extensive herds or iattle, keep them stabled durinig Sum muer, andsoil them upon corn,stalks, sown .expressly for this purpose, either thickly An the, drill, or broadlcast upon land well prepared ; the stalks grow up slender, and whben the tassel appears, it Ie cut off at the ground, and an enormsous quantity of food is obtained to the acre. As it is by being sown thickly prevented from sending out shoots, it is rich in sacharine 3substanee, aiid 'ivhen fed green, or in actured state, if,- furnishes superior foadl for -cat'tle: atid honses.

The calves designed for breeders should have good attention; a regular suip ply of milk for four months at least should be allowed them; the better to do this they should be early taught to driag from the from the pail, and by giving them skim med milk you abtain the cream, and they trive equally as well, as if suffered to draw from the test. They should have access to good grass pastures in Winter and Spring, with a portion of good hay and a small quantity of corn meal daily. They should be regularly stabled, and in rainy weather kept stabled during the day, as the cold rains are very injurous to them while young. Young cattle should have during winter a regular supply of turnips, with their dry porender, and by this means they are kept in a much more healthy condition, than if confined to the latter food, and continue to improve through the whole winter, instead, of pining away at, the time .hen green pasturage can no longer be had; In concluion we would urge the atten tion of metibers of our Society generally. to the improveeint of this branch of their stock, conscious fitat they will be amply repaid for the care- estowed. All of which is Tepectfully submmitted. G. T. SCOTT, Chairman. Cold Starch for Linen-T here is econ omy in stiffening the collars and wrist bands of shirts with unboiled starch. Take as much of the best rawedtarch as will fill half a common tumble er, & a half pint cup: Fill it-'nearly up with very clear cold water. Mix it well with a spoon, pressing out all the ldmp, till you get- 'it thoroughly dissolved. Next, add a tea spoonful of -salt, to prevent its sticking. Then pour it into a broad earthen pan, and add gradually a pint of clear cold water, and stir and mix it well. Do not boil it. Thd sbirts having been washed and dried dip the wristband into this starch, and then squeeze it out. Betveen each dipping, stir it up from. thebottom with a spoon. Then sprinkle the shirts, and fold or roll them up with the collars and wristbands folded evenly, inside. They will be rea dy to iron in an hour. This quantity of cold starch is sufficient for the collars and wristbands of a dozen shirts. Ladies' collars may be done also with cold starch, if the muslin is not very thin.-Miss Leslic's Magazine. Guano.-Major Noah, in his "Messen ger," says that guano is the ordure of 'irds which has been accumulating for ages in certain islands in the Pacific. It is refored to in Second Kings, vi, 24: 'And there was a great famine in Samaria; and behold they besieged it until an ass's head was sold for four score pieces of silver, and the fourth part of a cab of doves' dung for five pieces of silver." This doves' dung was purchased for the undigested grain it contained, and the name of guano is from the Hebrew ge youa signifying dove valley, as the manure is found in deep pits .between the acclivities of rocks. There is nothing new under the sun. Sbooting by Accident.-'Plaise your lordship's honotr and glory.' replied Tim, -I shot the hare by accident.' By accident remarked Captain O'Halloran. 'By ac cident,' contintued the postilion. 'I was firing at a bush, and the beast ran across mny aim, all of his owvn accord.' 'The gatme-keeper tells a different story.' replied his lordship. 'Och don't put faith in wvhat that man says,' said Tim Ryan. 'when he never cares nothing about speaking the truth any how. Hle tould me t'nher dlay day, yer lordship was not so fit to fill the chair of justice as v jackass!' 'Ay, ay,' exclaimed Viscoutnt Kiiskiddery, 'indeed, and what did yen say?" Plaise yer lord ship, I said yer lordship was.' To Get Rid of Rats.-Soveral papers say, put plenty of fresh lime about all their haunts. The Mississippi Valley Farmer recom mends to besmear their dens with tar, as they in common with all other rogues dis like a coat of this material. These are wvays to drive them off, but if you wish to catch them, fill a barrel two thirds full of water, and cover the water wvith oats or bran, and fix a run by putting a board with one end over the barrel.

Science, Agriculture, and General In telligence; to be published in the City of Ad gusta, Ga., BY W T. THOMPSON. Entertaining the belief that a Press, main taining a strictly neutral position in Politics and yet neither so pretending or exclusive in its devotion to Literature as to preclude the discussionti of the ordinary subjects of practi cal interest-would. if properly conducted, re ceive the approbation and cordial support of a large-portion of the Southern public, the sub scriber has determined upon the establishment of such a paper in Augnata, under the title of the Saturday Evening Messenger. The present time-when the heated discus. sion of Party politics is about to subside, and the public mind, long surfeitedwith tie.dis cordant clamner of wrangling factions, is about to cool down, it is to be hoped, to at least a temperate degree-is regarded as a favorite cri sis for the introduetion of the current intelli. gence of the day, in which TTara may find its way to the Family Fireside free from the sus picion of party bias. That such a press would supply an important desider alum in the litera ture of our section,we have the concurrent jndg wents of many worthy advIsers -to attest-and that the plan in expedient is abundantly estab. lished by the almost universal success of simi lar journals in other parts of the country. We cannot, therefore, permit ourself to doubt but that one respectable "Family Newspaper" would beanmp sustained at the South, and we trust that we do not count too highly upon our auxiliary resources, or overrate the advanta ges ofour own Editorialexperience, when we indulge the hope that we will be able to make the Messenger worthy that appellation. The design of the Messenger i6 to combine the useful with the entertaining-to instruct as well as amuse. With this view its contents will be carefully compiled and arranged, thro' out its various departments, to meet the wants and slit the tastes of the varions classes of rea ders; and while itshall present the feature of a full, comprehensive, mswellaneous newspaper, embracing every thing that can be brought within the range tof the Newsgatherer and the Literateur, it will be the constant aim of the Ed itor to preserve it in a high moral tone,thatshall render it unexceptionable-even to the most fas tidious taste. The Messenger will be identified with south ern interests, and while it will be ever prompt and firm in. the maintenance of southern insti tutions and southern rights, it willseduously ab. stain from the too comnmon indulgence of sec tional prejudice-while it will "watch the en croachments of northern fanaticism, it will be without motive either to magnify the danger or disguise the truth. The plan of the Messenger will embrace the following departnents Romance. Under this head each number will contain a choice original or selected Talewhich will be preferred for the wholesome moral truth it may enforce, rather than the author's succes ful dalliance with the passions and sympathies of the heart. It being the province of modern fiction to teach as well as entertain, such sto ries only as combine the utileduci will find cur rency in the papers or the Messenger. Miscellany. Under this head we satillenden vor to give the readers ofthe Messenger a choice variety lof agreeable matter, with occasional anr:icles of a more solid and important character. Fireside Readings. Pains will be taken to make this department of the Messenger accep table to the Family Circle, by selecting for Mt from the best writers, short moral Essays and Poems, such as are calculated to engage, not tai the attention, while they prompt the pious mind to devotional thoughts. The Political World. This department will contain the current Political News of the day, accounts of the actings and doings of the Na tional and State Legislatures, official returns of important Elections, movoments of prominent men, and wbatever else of interest that may be given witlaout trenching upon p arty ground. Agricultuaral Department. The planter will find a portion of thae Messenger devoted to his especial interests, in whaich will be giveta sea sonable articles on Agricultural subjects, drawvn from the anost reliable sources Foreign Neres Tnder thtis htead will be found a careful comnpilation of tlae latest Foreign In telhgenace, in whtich, whatever is of i.terest to the American reader will be given at lenagth. Temperance. A liberal space will be devoted to thec advocacy of the Temperance cause, an which will be brought to bear all the influence of sunsion, warning, and reproof, with occa~ion ai sallies of pleasantry and ridicuale. The Comamercial World. Each number of the Messunger will contain a careful revaew of the Augusta Market, an Exchange Table, and Ta ble of Prices Current, with snch selections from foreign sources as will put the reader in, poe. session oaf the fullest informtion in refernce to the state of trade.
