To Choose a Good Milk Cow.
Select from a good breed. We prefer tho
Devon*?bright bay red. Tho Durhatns
are roan, red. white, and mixtures of these
?plor*. Ayrshire cows are generally red and
white spotted, llerefords, red or darker colors
of tho several breeds, of which tho Diurliatns
are tho largest and the Alderneys the
smallest. Different individuals will contend
for each breed being the best and only one
that should bo selected for tlicir milkiug
qualities. Thit. animals of enoh breed, nud
of crossos of them, often prove remurkable
milkers, and so do some of the native stock
of flic country. Two families of cows, ono
owned by Col. Jaqucs, of Ten Ilills Farm,
licnr Charlcstown, Massachusetts and one
owned, by Mai. John Jones, of Wheatland
Farm, near Middleton, Delaware, were called
native breed.
If we were about selecting a milk cow,wc
would endeavor to get one out of such a herd
of good milkers; ono with a soft velvety
feeling skin, slim neck, fine logs, broad stem,
witll what is called a large escutcheon, that
is, the hair of tho stern pointing inward ; a
large udder, slim teats and large veins, commonly
called milk veins, on the belly. Above

not look for flesh, as the owt cows arc seldom
fat* their hip bones are often very prominent,
and they have tho npjiearanco of being low
in flesh. A beefy cow is seldom a good
milker.
The next thing is, what is a good milker ?
That is, how luucii milk must she yield per !
day i will average Ave quarts
of inmHH^Mirough the year, making
1,826 quafts of milk an extraordinary good
cow One that will yield five quarts a day
foi^fr months is a good cow, ami one that

tivcnigc luur ipuiris uuruig unit time is inoro
than an average quality. That would make
1,200 quarts a year, which, at three cents a
quart, is $36. We believe the Orange county
milk dairies average about $-10 per cow,
and the quality of the cows is considerably
nbovo the average of tho country.
It is as important to keep a good cow as
it is to get her good. This can never be
'done by a careless lazy milker. AI way milk
your cow quick and perfectly clean, and nev- I
cr try to counteract nature by taking away
her calf. Let it suck, and don't he afraid
"it will butt her to death." It will distend
the ndder and make room for the secretion
of milk. He gentle with your cow,nnil you
will have a gentle cow. Select well, feed
well, house well, milk well, and your cow
will yield well.?New York Tribune.

The existent* of ^IHceVeliiwry In the
southern Statm hue |fv?n*isc tolttnch hehted
declamation and to^hfclittle candid investigation
and calm The reason of
M? *? **sy obaioua. > T\wineVir the whole
world under the guidance of iustiuct treated
the African as an iuferior race, fit only for
servitude Even the aborigines of America,
being heathen, were considered by the Eurojxmns
as incapable of holding, by any valid
title, the lands they roamed over and claimed
as hunting grounds. These opinions were
almost universal,long after the mscovery and
settlement of the continent, and thov prcvaili
ed both in the Old and the New World, until
political considerations introduced new
ideas in England which wero transplanted to
America.
Old and New England adhcrred to the
slavery idea as long as any profit could be
inado from the slave trade. When that, nrof
it ceased they wore both open to new considerations.
England took the lead in tho crusade
against African slavery, being urged on
by tho desire to cripplo the growing ]>ower
of the Uuited States and to dupe and deceive
the English peasantry, by philanthropic
schemes, which might turn their mind# away
from tHo consideration of their own servitude.
And it is a fact, pregnant with instrnction,
that the leaders in this abolition movement
in England were the most bigoted tories in
Great Britain, who not only uenied to their
own rnco tho benefits of liberal laws, but oppressed
them Willi taxes to procure freedom
for a distinct race, whose only happiness
conlu bo promoted by a state of subjection
and slavery.
In tho United States the slavery discussion
was initiated as a political movement.?*1
In the beginning it was not based 011 any
pretence of philanthropy. After 1808, no
further profit could bo m.ido from the slave
trade in the United States. The climato of
the north was fbund to l?e uncongcnical to
the African, and the northern States got rid
of slavery?not by manumitting the slaves,
nor by promptly Relishing slavery, but by
enacting laws which gave freedom to their
slaves at special tirtfcs and at specified ages.
As that time approached, or as tho slave
approximator! the age at which the law would
make him free, his value diminished and he
was taken to tho south and sold into perpetual
bondage. Avarico was too strong for
spurious philanthopy then as well as now.
Having sold their slaves to the people of
the south and got rid of slavery by a profitable
process^ the north was in a ]>osition to
take a new departure with regard to that institution.
The northern mind being in that
condition, designing politicans impelled by
political considerations ulone, commenced tho '
attack upon the slave institutions of the south, <
which has given riso to so much sectional
hostility, and which mars the horizon with
angry clouds, even at the present moment.? i
The northern abolitionists of England, have I
shown the same reckless purpose to aceoin- 1
plish political results by fraud and duplici- 1
ty, by false statements and pretended piety.?

An Incident
At the recent couflngaration in Troy.
New York, we notice the following incident,
of the gallantry of one of our fellow-citizens, I '
which we take from tho Troy Daily Trav-\
filer:?Carolinian.
"During the progress of the fire, an inci- j
dent occurred which happily illustrated a
characteristic of those bound together by the <
mystic influence of 'the triple link.' A friend <
of ours (from Columbia, South Carolina, !
who is on a visit to his relatives residing <
here,) was assisting in the removal of some j
valuables from a house which was already on
tire, when an emblematic breast pin which .
he wears was observed by the lady who re- ,
sided there. She gave him th<? token of the
'H.' degree of I. O. O. F., and pointed to a '
highly cherished portrait upon the wall in
the next room.
"Our friend immediately conveyed it to a ;:
place of safety, and returned to the adjoin- i
ing houso, sup|>osing of course that the lady
had left the building?when he heard some *
one anxiously inquiring if she had been seen. ]
Impelled by a sudden thought, lie rushed j
into the house, part of the roof of which had
fallen in, and found tho lady sitting upon a (
bedstead in one of the rooms, so completely (
paralyzed as to be unable to move or speali.
It was the work of a moment to catch her
up in his arms, and the next he was seen I
jumping through the open window with his i!
charge?"a brand clocked from the bum-11
ing"?whom he carried in safety to the next ^
street, where, under proner treatment, sho (
soon revived. The lady has since ascertain- <
ed the name of her benefactor, but he forbids J
us mentioning it," i

Layixo a Ghost.?A philosophic and self- i
possessed ship-captain was passing through a i
church yard at midnight, when a sheeted <
ghost rose up behind a tomb-stone, and approached
him with menacing gestures. The ,
ancient mariner coolly raised Tils stick, and
gave him a crack over the head, asking hiin 1
what he meant by being out of hi* grnvo so I

"A Mighty Bia Fool."?Some,years ago
a black man called on a clergy man in Western
New York, avowed himself a fugitive
slave, and asked for food and shelter, which
was freely accorded. Two or three persons
being cognizant of the fact, called in to sec
tlio "runaway nigger," when the following
dialoguo ensutned :
"S poso you had pretty hard times down
South?lickings a plenty V
"No, I never was whipped."
"Wasn't? Well,you had to work awful
1 1
nam :
My work wm very light"
"(rucss your clothes won't vcrv nice ?"
"I was always well clothed?I was a good
servant."
"Reckon your victuals wasn't uncommon
fine 1" , 4
"As good as T desired."
"Well! I should give it as my opinion '
that you was a mighty liig fool for running
away frotn suoh a place as this, just for the 1
wtke of shirking for yourself."
Ahakxcr of Mind.?Mr. Tmlacli late minister
at Muirhousc Dundee, was remarkable j
for his absence of mind. In his prayer one ]
clay, he said, 'O Lord 1 bless all ranks and
degrees of persons, from the king on the dunghill
to the beggar on the throne.' Then re- 1
collecting himself, he added, 4I mean from
the beggar on the throne to the king on the
dunghill * . 1
Boys out at Xioiit.?I have been
an observer as I am a sympathising ,
lover of boys?I like to see them happy, '
cheerful, glecsome. Indeed, I can
hardly understand how a liiglitoned ,
useful man can be tho ripened fruit of 1
a boy who had not enjoyed a full sharo
of tho glad privileges due to youth.? ,
But while I watch with a very jealous
oil t*ir?1v4,o
l-j v mi ii^iuu til 1U CIISlUIllS WHICH CI1- |
trench upon the proper rights of boys,
I am equally apprehensive lest parents <
who aro not forethoughtful, and have ,
not habituated themselves to close ob- j
serrations upon this subject, permit .
their sons indulgences which aro almost
certain to result in their demoralization,
if not in their total ruin; and
among the habits which I have observed
tending most surely to ruin, I know 1
:>f none more -important than that of
parents permitting their sons to bo in
the street after nightfall.
It is ruinous to their morals in all instances.
They acquire, under the cov- <
M* of night, an unhcalthful state of mind
?bad, vulgar, and profane language,
>bscene practices, criminal sentiments *
\ lawless and riotous bearing. Indeed,
it is in the street after nightfall that ,
:hc boys principally acquiro the education
of the bad, and capacity for be- j
coming rowdy dissolute, criminal men. {
Parents should in this particular, have
i rigid and inflexible rale, that will
lot permit a son under any circumstan- .
whatever, to go in the street aftor
lightfall with a view of engaging in '
jut-of-door sports, or meet other hoys
for social chance occupation. A right i
tile of this kind invariably adhered to, <
will soon (leaden {he desiro of such dan- 1
^erons practices. <
.Boys should be taught to have plena- 1
lire aronnd the family centre table, in
reading, conversation, and in qnicfc a- 1
musenients. Boys are seen in the street i
after nightfall, behaving in a manner
entirely destructive of all good morals. (
Fathers and mothers, keep your children
home at night, and see that you l
take pains to inako your homes pleasant,
attractive, and profitable to them; .
and above all, with a view of their so- ,
enrity from further destruction, let
them not become, wliilo forming their
characters for life so accustomed to disregard
the moral sense of shame as to
openly voilato the Sabbathrday in street
pastimes during its day or ovening
hours.
