From -the SousberrnAmeulturaist. A short Ghapt'r on Milk Cows. Dr. BExi. W-Aro, ina e-teened- friend, residing.. at Edgeield C.- 1, writes to us, Mling: eiry as to the - beat breed of cows for furnishig a vIllage resident with an abutidance of milk and butter." Now, old friend, there are so many requisites to be attended to in order to ensure these house. hold comforts, that your question is to us a poser. There are fine milkers of all breeds, and good treatment with the true sort of attention given to a milk cow, will often en sure what you wish. We have had fine mil kers of Durham and of Ayrshire stock, and now have a Devon hard to beat for quantity and quality. Our friend, Gen. Waddv Thompson, of Greenville, S. C., is a staunch advocate for the Alderneys. which breed, lie contends, gives more butter to the cow than any other. Indeed, lie claims a large meed of praise for them. We have known some native cows fine animals in all the essentials for milking properties. But in every goo' milker, there are certain indexes which can not lead a purchaser astray, if he is at a!l familiar with those qua!ities which make the "farorites -f the cow-pen." Milking quali. ties are always accompanied with a fine head, a little wide above the eyes, but quite small below, causing it to appear somewhat long. The skin should he creamy yellow in color and the nose always of a rich yellow; neck small at its junction with tihe head, thin, but widening as it approaches the shoulders and brisket. The udder should be of good capacity, covered with long silky hair, and not inclined to fleshiness; large and prominent milk veins; snall delicate horns, fine and transparent. A broad, straight back, wide loins and hips, lnbg. deep quarters, round ribs, small flat leg bones, deep, full brisket, with fore legs wide apart, all covered with a pliable, mellow skin, constitute handling qualities, and a cow that is a good handler, almost invaria bly, when coupled with the above described conformation, is a good milker. This hand ling quality should never he overlooked in selecting any kind of stock, for frequently fine-shaped specimens of pure bred cattle are wofully deficient in these properties, so essential to thrift. We would have better milk cows if we provided them with proper food-luxuriant green food in summer, and a good supply of ground macerated grains and roots in winter. A few carrots and ruta bagas, in addition to broken peas or corn, soltened by boiling or simply steeping in water, makes all the dil ference imaginable in the quantity of milk and tie quality of the butter. Old Mrs. Gandy, who used to keep a hotel in Cotton Town, Columbia, could have learned any one a lesson in milk cow culture. She had the best system of feeding to promote the milk secretions in her cows, that we ever recollect to have observed. Hler rule for golden butter, was to feed wvell on boiled food, and the cowv pea was her element ot success. Feed, then, dlear Doctor, feed well, feed regularly, and feed just enough. Pick up a y-ellow-niosed cow, with the above enui merated requisites, till you can lay your bands on thorough bred Devons, and we wvill ensure you wvhat you wish. Whren you do get a Devon of the right stamp, you will have an animal wvorth petting. If we were autocrat of all the cow owners in the South, we would impound every sinner whom milked a starved cowv, ini a sort of penitentiary cow pen, until be learned humanity, and good taste in milk arid butter. Cotton-Di stance in the Drill, &c, McssaRs. EDrrORS-A great error eXists with about nineteniths of planters withs re gard to the distance cotton should be left in the drill. This is a hold assertion ; but as bold as it is, it has the only founidation that all bold assertions should have, well attested and oft-repeated trials, arid itn every instatnce my widest distances have giveni tie the greatest yield-that is, 4 feet. each way, on land capable of making 1,000 lbs. of seed cottoni of an ordinary year with ordinary culture-the cotton usually gro~winig 4 feet high, and my product has been oni an ave-rage of least 25 per cent. miore than the sanie land cultivated as usual, whic-h is 18 to 24 itnches from stalk to stalk, 4 feet drill. I never trust appearances as presentedl to the eye, but to close measurement anid act'uni weight of the cotton. I have made various trials on land that wvould mnake 7 or 800 lbs. per acre undler ordinary circumistances, vet ntot giving so great distance as thc fonregoim.g 4 feet each way, anid alwvays the result is in favor of the greatest distance that I have tried. The theory in favor of great distance sin the drill is simply this. The roots of ,eotton are very numerous, and are diffused svery thick .all through the soil to a greater extenit than the height of the stalk, atnd when thme stalks are too thick, the slightest drouth causes a famine too great to support the overplus of roots, stalks and fruits, and a considerable shedding takes place. Ac .cordirng to my maty trials, the following is the rule I recommend arid pursue. For poor land, capable of niaking 500 lbs., 2 feet drill, and stalks 2 feet aipart. Latnd good for 750 lbs., 3 1-2 feet drill and 2 1-2 feet from stalk to stalk. Land capable of mnaking 1,000 lbs., 4 feet dr ill and stalks 2 1.2 apart, arid so on in proportion for richer latnd. Tlhiese remarks may suggest the idea to some that it wvould he best to planit in hills ; but the etnemies to young cotton are too numerous arid likely to give a bad stand, wvhenever the hill is tried. But the better way is to soiv a liberal amount of of seed with a view of getting a heavy stand of cotton. Then, about the time cotton be. girns to need scraping, it should be crossed with a harrowv, or any kind of plow, so as to cut up about two-thirds of the cotton, checking at such distauce as necessary, to leave I stalk to each eresinig, then a bar rowv or scraper to rusn the other wvay each side of the cotton, leaves the cotton in sui table spots just as though it was planted ini hills; and that after the cotmen has gone through about half the perils of a bad stand ; and also this is at least half oif the labori saved, over the usual mode of seraping, and the cotton is so checked off, that the half idiot hand cannot err in knowiing where to leave a stalk when putting the eetton to a stand. I design to make the trial of greater distance than I have ever tried, and make known to the Southern Culhivator, in 10 or 11 months, the result; and I would like for others to rake similar trials. Let no one be deterred for fear of loss, for the trial ean be made complete in a small way. Thus,. check off wherever most convenient at scraping time, say half an acre 1 1-2 feet, another half aore 2 feet, another 2 1-2 feet,. another 3, and atnother 3 1-2, and if strong land, an oth'er 4 feet; and let rio one be confirmed with one trial, as different years will produce some difference in resolt; thb dryest year.. proving most favorable to the wvidest stand. In high latitudes ni here the crop is ofteni cut shoit by fr'ost, and as a close send is well known to hasten. to tnaturityr it Will not answer well to- give mueh distance ; but wherever the seasons tire sultidently long to mature the crups *ell, the foregoing re marts appl Iv. TwN'toityg YEAns' EXPEIENCE. Liquid Manure. The value of liquid manure is not under. stood in this country. In Belgium large tracts of land have been changed from ster ile sands into fertile gardens by the use of liquid manures. Not only the urine of ani mals but all the dish-water and soap suds ol' the household are converted itao 4'rtilizinag substances by mixinig them with conpost, or applying directly to the soil. We have s -en a statetent that the urine of a cow is V lued there at twenty dollars per year. in titis country not one in ten tho..-and l'arters save any ol' the li(tpid porlion of the animal exeremetnts, aid even leave the solid portion to be dissolved and waished away in an un sheltered vard. A farnter in Massaclhsett4 who stalls ten cows anad six horses, preserved last year all their liquids in a tank, from which it was putped and distributed over a ten acre grass lot, which did not bear but a tun and a hal' an acre, but which was increased to three tuns by the applicationonne seasoi. Where it is not convenient to send liqnid maure over the farm let it be absorlied by mck or a compost heap, and it will pay better than any other labor upona the farm Even if the barnyard liquids contained only a tithe of the fertilizing potters which they do, it would pay well to apply them to any cultivated latnd. Even clear water used in irrigation adds much fertility to the soil. - The great fmudamental laws of ntature, ilustrative o' their being no such thing in the world as destruction afsubstances, should never le lost sihlt of in agricultm-e." Solid substances are constaitly decompo. sed, and every liquid contains mviore or less of the solid substances of which plants are composed. It would he a good subject for debates in farmars' clubs, as to what is the value of 1i. quid nanure and the best method of apply. ing it.-N. Y. Tribune. PROFITS OF KEEPINr SntEr.-It has been frequently demonstrated that a fitim which will support four to six cattle, will support forty or ifty sheep at the sane time, with very little increase of labor, when tht horned cattle could not be increased with I any profit. Sheep eat, both in simmer and winter, much that neat cattle will not, anid it appears to he a settled faet that pastures are improved by them, and their droppings in winter furnish v4luable mnuire, particu larly if fed on turnips aid grain, as they al. ways should be. Every man who can keep a cow can also keep half a dozen sheep, for they will eat I what cows will not tonch. Evenw hemlock boughs are dedily iinter an11 it is thtougvht that an occasional feed condu ces to their health. Onte flock mister in Michigan caleulates the income of htis she'p itn the viahue of fleece and inc e.n~e at 82 1 ) per~ heawd. lHe est mnates the cost of witerting at only fifty cents a head. -He feeds wtheat straw anad whteat bran atnd shorts.

While tile seller is benefitted by getting the CASH PAID DOWN for his Goods, ena:bling him to turm his money over many times in the year, the buyer has the advantage of getting his Goods Tei or Fifteen per Cent Cheaper Than they can be obtained from those who sell on credit; they being compelled to sell at this citerence of per centage to cover bad debts and pay the additional expense of keeping and eol. lecting long accounts. It only requires a little reflection, aided hv a slight examination, to con vince those who visit Hanbure for the purpose of ptirehasing SUPPLIES, that the Merchant who deals exclusively on the Cash System in purchasing his Stock, liys it in cheaper than those who lay in large Stocks on credit, %% ith 0 view to selling them out. in the same way, being enabled to turn his capital over only once a ytear, must of course get larger profits to sustain his business, than him who on tie Ca.h system. buys moderate Stocks. SELLS QUICK and TURNS OVER his capital every thirty to sixy days.

The Undersigned having made ample arrangements to keep on hand a LARGER STOCK, and much better assortment of ALL MINDS OF GROCERIES Thnn they did the pnst season. only ask of their friends and others visitintf this market, to give them n call, where they will find, in addition tio FINE FAMILY GROCERIES, a large supply of nearly all the staple Goods usually used in the country. such as Saddlery, Hats, Shoes, Calicoes, Shirtings, Sheetings, Blankets, FLANNELS, &c., &c.
