.At a recent discussion by the Her-
kimer Co.,, N. Y..,. Farmer's Club the
very beneficial results of carding cows
were referred to by -different speakers.

The rather extraordinary- cure for
jumping habits in cattle, 'of elipp:nr Y
�n
their lower eyelashes, is pronounced
effectual by a. - correspondent of the
Jfassachussetta Ploughman who gives
the details of a trial made by him.
r '
Abont a month ago, the lower porti-
on of Second Division of New Orleans
was thrown into a state of excitement.
about the mysterious circumstances un-
der_ which a yoq.g lady of that locality)-
and ,ve well -}connected had. been
buried, ' 4 yet nd definite'im fora ation
cot ld ^ ai'bend to authorise p'ablicar-
oar in
- tlie° papers:
Since that time, however, we have
been enabled to obtain the following
facts.: -,The young lady, whose name it
is unnecssary to mention, upon return-
iLg fro early mass on Sunday morn-
ing was suddenly taken iii of disease
of the east, and_,as was supposed at
the tiro; , was suffocated to death, owing -
to
wing
to hei.u� usual fleshiness: A physician,
her owl uncle, attended her in her last
momen s, and pronounced her dead.
The death of this young lady, in the
bloom of .life (at the age of twenty) caus-
ed much, sympathy in the neighbour-
hood, and her funeral, which took place
in the . vening of the day of het death,
attracted'a large concourse of people.
She died about one o'clock in the morn-
ing, and the funeral occurred about five
in theevening. -
So far there is. nothing remarkable
in this account, - except ptobao1y the
short lapse of time from the time.uf the
lady's "death to the -interment in one of
the Catholic cemeteries of the Second
district.
But the report goes on to say that, on
that same evening, the sexton of the
graveyard, having some business to at-
tend to in town, left his son of mature
age, in charge of the keys, with the in-
structions to close the gates at the use-
-al hour, after ma .ng his round through
the ee netaxy, in order that no visitor
might be .accinently- confined -insscic.
About dusk, the sexton's son, while go-
ing his round, passing near thee.. tomb
in which the young lady had -been .buri-
ed scarcely au hour before, heard low
and heart. -rending meanings coming
from behind the marble slab.
Los his self-possession, and
overcome with fear, he hurriedly
left the scene, and closing the main
gate of the cemetarv, went house, and
it was not until morning that he relat-
ed the circumstance to his horror-stciek-
en. family. Information of the fact was
immediately sent to the bereaved par-
ents of the deceased, and .- workmen
were soon engaged in opening the tomb
and breaking open the coffin enclosing
the remains of the young lady.
- The spectacle was to horrible to des-
cribe, Her face and body weie in r
horrible state of distortion, and her
hair torn from the roots.
In the terrible convulsions which
had preceded her death, she had liter-
ally harrowed her beautiful face with
her nails, and her clenched fists in con-
tact with her foaming lips : showed the
traces of her teeth. It is unnecessary
to 'say that life •'was entirely extinct.—

A man in Pensylvania preparing
rheubarb stalks for market, threw the
leaves to his pigs. The next. morning
live oat of nine were dead, three appear -
convalescent, and one looked 'doubt-
ful, they exhibited every syrnpton of
poision, _ - •
Mr. Allen, of the American Farm
Book, says Mr. Percival mentions a.
Horsey that died at 67 years of age ; and
adds that a Mr. Marrion, of New York
-had a gig anal saddle horse which was
•.sound,spirited, and 'playful-' when. in
-his forty-fifth year.
A young cow, only two and a half
years old, belonging to -Mr. Samuel Col-
lins, Cobourg, :gave birth last week tv.
three calves. - They all lived and are in
good health. The bopys have named the
three itlustrious triplets, which are all
of male -persuasion Shen;, ,Ham and
Japhet.
The noted Short Horn hull. Fourth
Duke ,cif Thorndale, bred by M. Throne
and exported to England a few years
since, died very suddenly recently,
When (eight years old, he was bought
by CaptainGunter, for 500 guineas.
He is said to have been the last pure
Bates bull of the Duchess tribe in Eng-
land.
A Masschussetts corresponden : oc the
Country Gentleman ,is warm in his
praises of the Dutch cattle. He has a
cow that has given 49 pounds • of. milk
per day for a week, and another that
gave 53i pounds per day = for a
week. Each had a calf about
two weeks old. They ' had no
-deed but what they , got in the ptsture.
`The Globe says We noticed in the
rattle market yesterday a very fine and
unusnallf'fat calf It was fed by Mr.
Uriah Young, of Pickering, on eggs and
milk, with a view of selling it ata fancy
price In this he has succeeded; for it
was bought yesterday by Mr: James
Britt )n, butcher, of the Arcade,
at the very high price of $30.
lt'wiIl weigh about 60 lbs per quarter.
' Farrner3 who sell milk, and care noth-
ing for quality, are partial to shorthorn
grades out of good milking common
cows. Those who make cheese or But-
ter, prefer Ayrshires or- Ayrshire grad-
es. Those who make fancy butter the
chief thing or who wish milk of great
richness for their owl; tables, select the
Jerseys. Great milkers occur_in all
breeds occasionaly. The Deyons give
avzood quantity of rich milk, and the
Holstein or Dutch cows are great milk-
ers. "
LARGE Four --Mr. J. M. .Davis, of
Richmond ill, has been showing
round a he 's egg of extraordinary size,
the produc of a hen of mixed Cochin
and Br -aha breed. The egg weighed
4i ounces ; its circumferance in the
direction of the long diameter 8 inch-
es, and in the opposite direction 6'
inches. The Globehaving had a sight
of this wonderful egg, captiously ob-
serves :—"This is, perhaps, the largest
that we have ever seen."
A correspondent of the Cincinnati.
Times says that the following receipt
will preserve all kinds of grain and gar-
den seeds from the ravages of cu-wornms
birds, etc : One pond sulphate f iron,
one pound aloes. Dissolve i water
heated to 90 95°, and pour o ea one
bushel of grain and in a"similar 'pro-
portion for a greater or lesser quantity.
Mr. W, A. Gibbs, the winner of the
pre essay on drying horn in . wet
weather' has lately, it is stated, intro-
duced improvements in the construction
of his air-stove,eso that without a steam-
engine the desiccating process can be
easily carried on by the help of common
horse works driving a fan. Grass can
be converted into hay w'thoe t sun-
shine by this desiccator which dries
grain in the sheaf, and desiecator beet
and mangold.

THE JAPANESE AT HOME.— Arriving
as we did from China, the land of pug -
noses and yellow skins, we ° were at
once struck with the fresh ruddy com-
plections, and in many instances well
cut features, of the Japanese. Besides
the' difference in their' personal appear-
ance, they offer a marked contrast to
the Chinese in manner and bearing.
In place of the cringing abject demean-
our of the latter, they carry themselves
as becomes men, fearlesly and upright-
ly, look you straight in the face, and
consider themselves inferior to none.
The . better class are a fine bold set of
men. Like knights of old, they are
ever ready to avenge a wrong, or even
to provoke a quarrel ; and with their
teri ible , two-handed "swords would be
any thing but contemptible antagonist
iii hand-to-hand fighting. Their man-
ners are polished -in the extreme. As a
rule they are exceedingly good-natured,
and; have a keen sense of the ridiculous
—rather too much so ; for we believe
i1 the most duietful son; possessed of
the greatest filialpiety,''were to see his
father dying, he could not repress a
laugh if the old gentleman were, to ao
so in at all a comical way. The Japan-
ese ladies are almost as fair -sinned as
their sisters of the . West. Small but
neat—nay, sometimes faultlessly--
shaped; their flowing robes displaying
in its own gracefulness the model that
nature has adopted, and which none of
the rneretticious deceptions of civiliz-
ation can improve' upon; with pretty
captivating. manners, and a language
musical. and soft as Italian, the laugh-
ter -loving nymphs of the, Rising Sun
have many and powerful charms. No
