Keys for a statement of the yield from one cow kept by him for the last ninety days, and give it as a matter of information to our readers, with the hope that it may tend to induce them to take care of their milk cows, and receive similar profit. The following is the average per day: 1st 30 days, 36 lbs. or pints por day. 2d 30 days, 385 lbs. or 1int: per day. 3d 30 days, 37 lbs. or pits per day, or for the first 30 days she gave 4j gallons per day ; the next 30 days she gave a fraction over 4j gallons per day ; and the third 30 (lays she gave 4 gallons and five pints per day. During fourteen days of this time she averaged 5 gallons per day, and on one day she gave 5t gallons. The total amount of milk given in the 90 days was 418 gallons l and 1 pint. From this amount of milk 137 pounds of butter was made. The cow is half Durham, of medium size, and weighs 644 pounds live weight. She has given milk since the 1st day of Juno, 1875, with the exception of a short inter val last year, and still holds up in the quantity of milk she yields. This shows the advantage of keel ing one cow properly, intead of half a dozen or so in the ordinary way. Andcrson intelligencer. A THIEF's LITTLE JoKE.-A Lon don pick-pocket played a trick on a policeman the other day. Detected in stealing a watch he ran away, and at the moment the policeman came up with him he appeared to pass the watch to a bystander, saying, "Here, take it." The policeman ar rested both- and took them both before a magistrate, where both loudly declared their innocence. They were immediately searched, but nothing could be found to criminate them. The pickpocket then accused the policeman of com mitting the theft himself, and on searching his own pockets the astonished officer discovered the wat.lih in his pocket. The pick pocket, having enjoyed his little joke, immediately acknowledged his guilt, to the intense relief of the policeman. A SMAL DIVIDEND.-At a late meeting of the creditors of the bank rupt firm of I. L. Gunhouse & Co., of Chester, the compromise proposed by the firm was accepted. They pro posed to pay 20 per cent. of their indebtedness-10 per cent. cash and the balance on a credit of one year. The number of creditors was one hundred and thirty-one, of whom more than one hundred favored the proposed arrangement. The mi nority, I suppose, will be bound by the decision of the majority. The firm exp)ect to open their store and resume business, as soon as the com promise proceedings have re ceived the sanction of the Court. Cor. Yorkvllec Engweirer. Lewis Cruger, one of the old style of Democrats, contributes to the Washington Post the following: I was present at the family mansion of the Calhiouns, among the moun. tains of Pendleton, when the com mittees of all the Northern Conven tions waited upon that eminent statesman to offer him the Presi - dency upon the condition of his. giving up the doctrine of nullifica tion. The grand old Roman, slowly rising from his seat and elevating his majestie figure to its highest stature, exclaimed in the loftiest tones of his stentorian voice, "I would not abjure principle to be come an Emperor 1" 4,I In Hartford, Conn., women re~. ceive twenty- five cents per dozen for making corsets; and the cotton thread, which must b6 bought- of the corset manufacturer, is deduct ed from this sum. There are thirteen stitches to the inch, and flye thousand stitches in one corset. An experienced needle--woman can complete half a dozen in a day, and thus earn twelve and a half cents, hire. Tilton is out with a denial that she has recently made a con fossion in the Beecher buainess. TOTAL ABSTINENCE SAINt WINE TILL IT RIPENS. There is a curious story about some native wines which are extensively advertised nowa days, and have only recently been put upon the market. Dr. Underhill, the well-known grape-grower of Croton Point, died in 187r. Some of his heirs entertained temperance views of such extreme kind, that they were unwilling to allow the stock of wines then on hand to be sold or any more to be made. The grapes have sometimes been sent to market, and sometimes left to decay upon the vines. It is only now that the other heirs have succeeded in arranging for a settlement of the estate and the sale of the wines on hand. Among these is a wine of the vintage of 1864, described as a "Sweet Union Port,' but suggesting the Imperial Tokay more than any other European wine, and being wholly unlike any other wine of American growth. Its purity, age and mellowness are remarkable, and both physicians and wine fanciers have a special interest in it as the oldest native wine now accessible in any con siderable quantity. The whole stock is in the hands of the well-known wholesale grocery house of the Thurbers.-N. Y. Tribune, Nov. 19, 16S?7. r The above speaks for itself, but we would add that this is the pure juice of the grape, neither drugged, liquored nor watered; that it has been ripened and mellowed by age, and for medicinal or sacramental purposes it is unsurpassed. It can be obtained from most of the leading Druggists throughout the United States, and at wholesale from the undersigned, who will forward descriptive pamphlet, free of charge, on application.
