GREEN FOOD FOR CATTLE. - few Phases of Ens lingo Discussed In the Annual Congress. New York Sun. Seventy-five farmers interested in pre * serving summer growths green and juicy in winter met yesterday, in the third annual Ensilage Congress, at 56 Beekman street Ensilage has been tested i n this country for five years. The object of the annual meeting is to compare experience and results. As an art, ensilage is yet in its infancy. It was practiced first in France, in 1873, on a large scalo, and was adopted in America in 1878. The system has enemies who insist th at the preserved grass or corn spoils the milk, and that, being in the first stage of fer? mentation, it must eventually undermine the health of the cattle. Edward Gridley, of Wassaic, N. Y^ gave an account of the difficulty the Wassaic farmers had with a New York condensed milk company which had its factory near Wassaic Milk was J u rnish ed to this factory by faimers from s. great distance around it. In 1880 threo far? mers experimented with'silos. Milk increased in quantity, and milk inspectors at the factory tried in vain to detect something wrong in it They pronounc? ed the milk good. In 1881, eight addi? tional silos were made, and in 1881 and 1882 a great deal of milk was furnished to the factory from cattle fed on erailage, and no fault was found. In 183S! four more silos were built There were then more silos in Wassaic than in any other part of the,country in a territory of sim? ilar extent "' }n February, 1888, ta?imilk Was refused at the factory. The farmers -wen^tbld>;that some milk which came fromrcjbro^fed on ensilage bad been condensed by itself, and it was found that- the milk would not remain Jit for consumption as long a time as other milk. It was asserted, too, that New York con? sumers complained that they could taste something bad in the milk. The Presi dec/ of the.milk company offered to fur? nish. the usual food for cows if farmers would not fill their b?os last summe:, and refused to make contracts with them from October 1,1883, to March 31, 1884, if the farmers filled their silos. Corn had been planted when this prop? osition came from the condensed milk company, and farmers permitted the question to remain open until the time came for them to decide whether to fijl the silos. When that time arrived seven silos were filled and eight were alb wed to remain, empty. They are empty yet. -The speaker was one who refused to yield to ihe condensed milk company. He had bought thirty steers and was fattening them for market. Dr. Tanner, Mr. Chaffee, and others had done the same. Mr. Gridley thought it a question which was the way to make most money, , but he thought it was by Belling milk. However, he was not so certain of that when he found two year old oxen gain two and one-third pounds a day on en? silage. ? Dr. Tanner of the same town said he : had 150 cows, and after, the trouble with the factory he sold 100 of them and took the milk of fifty to New York city. The customers who used the milk dkl not complain of it. If they did he had hay enough for the cows. B. Rogers of Binghamton, said he fur? nished the milk- of ensilage fed cows to many people in Binghamton. They complained of the milk just after the silos were opened in . winter. Out of three hotels, one had complained.. A resolution was passed asking; the Department of Agriculture at Washing? ton to make an.analysis of ensilage milk and of that. produced by the ordinary feeding and to publish the result, and also requesting the State Experimental Station *of New York to make a similar comparative analysis. Elder Evans, of the Lebanon Shskerfi -. filled three silos last Summer, and had fed out two of them. Their hotter was as good as ever. Elder Evans thought that it is easy to.make a poor.article, but that there is no reason why ensilage is not a perfect food. ? He saw ho injurious effect on the cattle. . ' Prof; Miles of the Amherst Agricultu? ral College read a pap er on the preveu tibn of acidity in ensilage. He said that fer? mentation is the result of a proces3 of vital activity in which microscopic germs are nourished;'These germs are ailed j bacteria,; and they produce the acidity, j If the bacteria could be killed there could, be no acidity. The way to kill them, he thought, was to fill the niloa leisurely,"and not put on the weights until the temperature is high enough to prevent its falling below the point neces? sary to kill the bacteria. This tempera? ture, be had found, was from 115 to 122 degrees. The result, he believed, would be uniformly sweet ensilage. John Myer, of Mr. Theodore A. Huve meyer's Mountain Side Farm, near MahWah, N. J., said he fed each of his 100 Jerseys twenty pounds of ensilage in the morning and twenty pounds at night, with seven pounds of hay at noon. With each meal was given also a quart of ground oats and Indian meal. The cattle were never turned out to pastnre, and had been fed in this way for three years. Their health is perfect. The ensilage had been taken from sixty three acres of land producing about twenty tons to the acre.. Some one asked whether ensilage was good for horses. Dr. Baxter, of Virgin? ia, said: "I fed my horses ensilage lor a week. So, did a neighbor. My neigh? bor's died. About that time I heard of some mules dying in Kentucky from eating ensilage. Then I concluded .to stop feeding ensilage" Henry Goad will, of Passaic, said he had an old horse which be fed on ensi? lage because he didn't care whether the old plug lived or died. It got fat J. Costigan, of Frederick Branson's farm in Greenfield Hill, Conn., said he had fed ten horses for a week past on ensilage, and eight of them died. The Late Mrs. Jane Perry Bulleir. "Richland," the Columbia correspon? dent of the Augusta Chronicle, speaking of the News ana Courier's admirable de? sign of securing and publishing sketches or the experiences of Southern women during the war, relates the following: Many of your readers will recollect the instance of Gen. Butler's mother taking ? the oath at EdgeSeld Court House, and her proud reply to her would be courte? ous roe. Mrs. Butler's grandfather was a distinguished naval officer; ber uncle, Mathew Calbraiah Perry, was a Commo? dore, and her father was Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry of Lake Erie fame. Her husband's father was a gallant army 'officer of the Revolution. Her husband was a captain in the regular army prior to the late war and served his country faithfully, whilst one of his brothers was a United States Senator and another Governor of South Carolina. Mrs. But? ler, being a widow, found it necessary . for the proper transaction of some legal matters to take the hated oath. The officer who presented her to the comman? der of the poet, thinking to win favor for her with the little despot of an hour, began to give him a list of the distin? guished men with whom she was allied. - The noble lady stopped bim and said "I prefer to be known as the mother of Gen. :M. C. Butler, of the Confederate army." ? A medical student says he has never been able to discover the bone of conten? tion, and desires to know if it isn't the jaw-bone. "Bough on Coughs."

PO?XI?G FOE PLACE, A Bow Among the Ladles at a White House I Reception. 1 Washington, February 1.?People I who called at the White House last Sat? urday afternoon were deeply impressed with the majestic, almost imperious man? ner of M:rs, Justice Miller, who stood third in the line from Mrs. McElroy during the reception. There was a high rosy flush upon Mrs. Miller's face, and I her black eyes fairly snapped. Strangers r unfamiliar with Mrs. Miller's manners were much impressed by her stately brusqueness as they were presented. It was noticed that whenever a friend of Mrs. Miller appeared she talked in a very vigorous and emphatic manner, and there were looks of amusement or em I barrassment upon these friends' faces, according to their disposition, as they filed by. The reasons for this has since been explained by Mrs. Miller herself at I several up-to wn receptions. I It is the custom for ladies invited to assist at receptions at the White House to take their places in line as they are assigned. There have been many dis? putes heretofore over the exact place certain ladies were to occupy in the Blue Boom, but nothing to equal the incident of last Saturday. Mrs. McElroy was the first lady to take her position. She in? vited Mrs. Carlisle to stand next her. Mrs. Frelinghuysen was to have stood third, but she was not well enough to come to the* White House to take a posi I tion below the wife of the Speaker. The third place was then assigned to Mrs. Miller. She is' the wife of the senior I Justice of the Supreme Court. The Su? preme Court people have always held that they should rank the Cabinet, and when Mrs. Miller, who had just left a ladies' lunch party, where she had been I the centre of a group of prominent la? dies, arrived and discovered this arrange? ment she was very much annoyed by it In one way she resembles her husband. (She has a habit of speaking her mind when excited, regardless of her surround? ings or the occasion. She began her pro? test by saying that she had been at the I White House since Mrs. Lincoln's time. In all that period she had never been outranked by the wife of the Speaker, I and she thought it was pretty late in the [ day for anything of that sort. I These remarks were addressed to Mrs. McElroy, who, being a very modest, [timid woman, was overwhelmed with embarrassment. The other ladies looked frightened, with the exception of Mrs. Carlisle. She remained very quiet, look I ing straight ahead of her, utterly ignor? ing what was said. This appeared 'to add fuel to Mrs. Miller's rage. Catching the wife of the Secretary of War by the hand she said: "Come, Mary Lincoln, you I come here and stand between me and Mrs. Carlisle, for I will never stand next I to her." Mrs. Lincoln is one of the most timid and modest of women. She I could do nothing but submit to the im? perious display of temper, and so this I accounts for her being next to Mrs. Car I lisle on (hat eventful afternoon. Mrs. I Miller did not let the matter drop when she had taken the next place, but kept turning to the ladies beyond her, asking Lwhat they thought "of this proceeding?" What these ladies thought they did not venture to say. I This unusual incident accounted for I the high color in the faces of the ladies receiving, and also for the excessive cor? diality with which they pounced upon I the first visitors that came in. It may also have accounted for the agitated I manner of Marshal McMichael, who was so thoroughly amused with the whole I thing that he could hardly get his mind down to the routine Work of making I presentations. I There ia nothing in a social way that has made so much stir in a long time, as I the President giving Mrs. Carlisle first place on New Year's Day. Of course he had no idea of the effect that would be I produced and the storm that was to fol? low. Mrs. Frelinghuysen has made such a point about it that at the dinner last I night the Speaker's wife sat below the I ladiea of the Cabinet. As it was a* din? ner given in honor of the Cabiuet there I was some reason perhaps in this, although I it has been customary in the past for the I President to put the wife of the Secretary of State upon his right and the wife of I the Speaker upon bis left. j The Bebel Yell in Court ' A singularly dramatic incident oc? curred Friday, near midnight, in the Superior Court room at Waynesboro, during the trial of the Bogers brothers, for the killing of the Symes?father and son. The killing occurred at McBean's I station in October last. Eminent coun? sel had been engaged by the prosecution and defense, for both parties were prom? inent and wealthy. Major W. F. Gary, Hon. J. C. C. Black and Judge Lovett appeared for the Stale; Hon. H. D. D. Twiggs, Colonel John D. Ashton, Colo? nel J. J. Jones, Judge H. H. Perry and Mr. H. Clay Foster for the defense. The evidence closed and the speaking began Friday morning, continuing all during the day. From the speeches already made, and the eminent counsel yet to ap? pear, it became evident about dark that one of the most remarkable forensic dis? plays ever known in Georgia had been begun. When the court assembled after tea, the seats and the aisles within the bar were crowded with ladies, while with? out a dense throng of men filled up the auditorium. It was before this assembly that Mr. Twiggs began his argument at 8 o'clock. Twiggs is an eloquent speak? er, practiced in and noted for oratorical graces. In the course of his three hours' address, he at one time referred in the most feeling manner to the courage and devotion of woman. The hour, the oc? casion, the audience and the dim light, from which the rapt faces were bent upon him, all combined to form a surrounding well calculated to inspire the orator to his greatest effort. He closed his address upon women as follows: "At the battle of Gettysburg General Pickett was ordered to begin the charge which was.to make him famous. As he went into the terrible battle, his young bride on horseback followed him. Wheu the hail of death was beating down men on all sides, and the plunging shot and shell mingled their fierce screams with the moans and cries of the mangled, j Pickett suddenly found himself iu the presence of his wife. In an agony of fear for her safety, he cried out to her as she sat cool and collected as a veteran, 'Go back 1 Go back! For God's sake, go to the rear!' 'No,' replied the devoted woman, in the hour of danger a wife's place is at her husband's side." At this moment through the court room there rang out one wild thrilling j cry, which nearly lifted the excited throng to its feet. It was the old Bebel "yell," heard upon a hundred battle fields and never to be forgotten. A deep j silence followed. All eyes were turned toward the outer circle. Then Judge Roney's cold voice was heard biddiog the Sheriff to arrest the offender. A man was seen dodging in the crowd, and the Judge said: "The man who is leaving is probably the one wanted!" "No, Judge," exclaimed a voice slowly, "I am the man 1" The speaker stood in the aisle with folded arms, quietly viewing the Bench. "I shall have to fine you $10, then, for disturbing the court!" "Very well, your Honor; I will pay the fine," said the man without moving, "but I meant no disrespect; I was a Con? federate soldier at Gettysburg, and just could not keep from bollering I" The ladies present sprang to their feet, and almost instantly the money was made up and paid to the Clerk." The in? voluntary yell of the old soldier was an irresistible tribute to womanhood. Had the fine been ten times as large he would not have suffered.?Macon Telegraph. Effects of Air on Boiler Explosions, Another theory to account for mysteri ous boiler explosions has recently been advanced in the Journal de France, in which attention is drawn by experiments made by Prof. Donny, of Ghent, and which is certainly deserving of critical examination. The theory is based on the presence or absence of air in the water, and is thus described in the American Engineer : In this experiment ordinary water is placed in a clean glass tube, open at one end, and boiled long enough to drive away not only the air above the surface of the water, but all the air dissolved in the water. Then, when the upper part of the tube is full of pure steam, the mouth is hermetically sealed and the tube left to cool. When cool it is about half full of water, abovo which is vapor of water in a very low pressure. The tube being thus prepared, its lower end is plunged in a bath of glycerine or oil, which is gradually heated. No ebullition is visi? ble in the tube when the temperature reaches 130?O. (234?F.) At 138? (240?F.,) however the column of water burst, as it were, in two with a sudden explosion, and part of it is flung against the sealed end with such force as "often to break it open. Now, in industrial works it often hap? pens that a boiler, having ?been filled with water, works for three or four hours without receiving a further supply; it may then be cooled down, and the next time it is wanted it may very probably be fired up again without starting the feed-pump, the water-level being judged sufficiently high. But the water in such a boiler will be in the same condition as that in the test tube, i e., it will be de? prived of all air and consist of water be? low and vapor above, the latter, however} being probably at a much higher press? ure than that of the water in the tube. This water has no free surface in its in? terior, due to the presence of bubbles of air, from which evaporation can take place. Consequently, as in the test-tube, there will be delay in vaporization, at least until the expansion becomes great enough to overcome the pressure of the superincumbent vapor, and then a sud? den flashing into steam, which will be of the nature of an explosion, and may easily overcome the resistance of the boiler. The pressure thus attained may be very great. In-the test-tube the press? ure at the temperature of explosionn (130? C.) will be 86 times what may be taken as the pressure of the superincumbent vapor in the boiler, as already observed. That pressure will probably be much higher, and the pressure of the explosion will probably be much higher also. Four cases of explosion are cited as examples of this mode of action. The first was at the mines of Hardinghem, where, during the putting in of some pumps, it was often necessary to stop the engine and bank up the fires for a time. It had been noticed when this took place the pressure was very slow in rising after the resumption of firing. On one occasion, when this delay in recovering the pressure hj>d been very long, the en? gineer, M. Obe, actually had his eye on the pressure-guage, when he saw the needle first vibrate sharply and then rise by rapid steps to a very high pressure. At the same moment there was a dull roar within the boiler, a slight shaking of the ground, and the Bafety valves opened wide, emitting clouds of spray and steam. An explosion had, in fact, occurred, but the boiler bad been strong enough to resist it. Subsequent exami? nation showed that there was no sedi? ment in the boiler, or any other apparent cause for the occurrence. The second case was at St. Laurent, in a pair of boilers coupled together and provided with heaters (bouilleurs) below them, after a plan common in France. A stoppage had token place, aud on re? suming work the engine man found it impossible to raise the pressure beyond three atmospheres, at which it bad been standing. He, however, started the en? gine, but it had not run more than a few minutes before the cylinder and steam pipes were filled by a rush of priming water, a dull sound was heard, and there was a tremendous outburst from the safety-valves. Here, again, no special cause could be discovered for the occur? rence, which may fairly be set down to che cause here stated. In another case, at Boanne, the boiler had been filled up an hour before stop? ping fordinner. When the time came to resume work the fireman found the water-level and pressure as they should be, and started accordingly, but in twenty minutes a serious explosion occurred. Lastly, at Cusset, a boiler still hot from the work of the day before, was fired up at 5.30 A. M., and exploded one hour after with terrible violence. In both cases subsequent inquiry failed to reveal any special cause for the disaster, for which the present theory seems to offer the best explanation. To avoid this source of danger it will be sufficient, as M. Vignes points out, to make it a rule always to feed a boiler when it is first fired up after standing. This will have the double effect of lower? ing the pressure and of facilitating evap? oration by distributing the mass of water in the boiler and charging it to some ex? tent with bubbles of air. Meanwhile, the facts he has adduced are certainly sufficient to warrant a belief that we have here a key to many cases of boiler ex? plosions which have hitherto been wrapped in mystery.

We know this. ?- Mr. Jno. F. Hobbs, formerly of Lexington, who led a fruitless indepen? dent canvass in the election of 1880, has had an interview with the Newberry Herald. He states that he is now con? scious that he acted foolishly aud that there should bo no opposition to the Democratic party in this Slate by respect? able men, the best way to fight Bourbor. ism being inside the party ranks.

It is full dress with the planets, moon and stars this month. Never was a more brilliant spectacle in the skies than is presented now by the heavenly proces? sion. Venus has been seen for a month Bending her lovely rays through the deep red glow of our wonderful sunsets. She reigns supreme as eveuing star in the West, as it is meet she should do, in the month that contains the extra leap year day. She reaches her declination on the 11th, being then 14 degrees North of the sunset point. 13ut while Venus reigns alone in the West the East is filled with a long pro? cession of astronomical and mythological celebrities. First comes Saturn, the father of them all, who shines with steady and serene countenance between the fiery Aldebaran and the Pleiades. He is now at the most favorblc point for observation, being near the sun and turned so that the opening between the rings may be plainly seen. It will be thirty years before such an opportunity of examining him occurs again, and he is therefore now the favorite cynosure of astronomers. Next to Saturn comes Jupiter, bis royal son, who outshines him completely, and is far the most brilliant object in the Western sky. Following him at a re? spectful distance, and a little to the North, is ruddy Mars, who has just passeed oneof his most interesting and characteristic stages?opposition. The earth is now almost directly between him and the sun, and the distance between him and the earth is nearly 60,000,000 miles. He is not particularly brilliant now, as he is al? most in aphelion, and we almost in peri helian. Neptune, the outpost of our sys? tem, is evening star, but as he cannot be aeeu without a powerful telescope, he is of no particular iuterest to us. The elusive Mercury is morning star, and you may catch him if you can about the 13th, when he will be visble, if at all, about an hour before sunrise, near the South? ern horizon. The moon is full on the 10th, near midnight. She is then quite close to Mars, and on the previous evening will pay her respects to Jupiter in passing. But not only are the planets at their best this month ; the fixed stars also are on parade. The gorgeous Orion, pre ceeded by the Pleiades and Hyades, and followed by the glorious monarch of all, Sirius, is overhead, South of the zenith. The twins, Castor and Pollux, are not far off, and Procyon still sustains his corner of the giant triangle of which Sirius and Betclgeuse are the other apices. Toward the North, almost overhead, is Capella, second only to Sirius in brightness, now that Arcturus is gone into the West. The Great Bear we have always with us, re? volving around his axle, Polaris. Hereditary Insanity. Hereditary Iusanity is the most terri? ble disease that can be transmitted from parent to child. It often remains latent and unsuspected, however, for a genera? tion, or perhaps longer, and then only manifest itself in a single member of a household, and is set down to personal idiosyncrasy. Like lire to* gunpowder, any calamity which appeals intensely to the brain is liable to ignite the fires of madness. A strange case of this kind is reported from Halifax. One member of the family, Roger Amcr, is in jail at Bos? ton, awaiting his trial for murder. This so worked upon the brain of a married sister that she had to be couveyd to a lu uatic asylum. Soon afterward the broth? er of the accused prisoner became in eane at his residence near Digby, N. S., and his malady has increased so that he also will have to be confined in an asy? lum. In a little while a younger sister showed the same symptoms, and is now a maniac. Thus three members of one family have lost their reason through the mental agony of having a brother accused of murder. If they were sure of bid in? nocence one can scarcely conceive of their being thus affected. Even if they iave knowledge or belief of his guilt the triple coincidence of a brother and two sisters becoming insane from the same grief seems to point beyond a doubt to hereditary predisposition. Possibly the alleged murderer may also be insane and lis crime may have been the result of brain disease. At any rate his lawyers .?ill be able to make a strong case for his insanity if, in addition to the living mem? bers of his family who are now insane, they can trace the disease back to his father or mother or their families.? Brooklyn Eagle, ? dentist was asked whether gentle? men or ladies gaqe him the most trouble, and he reptied, "?, gentlemen, beyond question. I operated upon a great many officers just before they went to the re? cent War, and I assure you that many of them who are now heroes behaved in a very unheroic way indeed in the chair in which you are sitting. Women scream a little, but are always ready to thank me for what I do for them. Men moan, and groan, and abuse me." ? "Dar is many a rule," says Uncle Sam, "wat won't work bofe ways.
