The Foreign Cattle Trade.
There is a very large amount of -dis-
cussion going 'on in the agricultural
journals relative to the admission of
American cattle, and its effects on the
meat supply. The Mark Lane Express
in a, late numbersays :
Perhaps the most striking circum-
stance in connection with the live cat-
tle export trade from the United States
is to be found. in the assertions made
by exporters themselves, to the effect
that the trade can have a "-shrinka.ge,"
as they call it, of Jai to £5 per head of
attle, without causiug it to become un-
rofitabler' It is stated that the dif-
rence in •the returns made to export-
rs, now that the animals must be
laughtered at the Ports of landing as
onapared with those -realized for sirni-
1 animals when inland traffic was
as permitted, will be almost equal to
e above mentioned figures. At this
eduction hippers ate prepared, they
ay, to seu4t as before and under these
climate ces they would still prefer
o send livi h cattle rather than fresh

The Sprinsfi old Republican ealls atten-
tion to a trait of farmers ia which, it
thinks,theydiffersts regards each other,
from the members of any other guild.
"Each man' is eager to show his neigh-
bor any new discovery or acquisition
which he has possessed himself of that
is hkely to help on the business of farm-
ing. If he thinks he has a good thing'
he wants others to know about, wheth-
er it be the result of tome successfnl ex-
periment in, raising a crop, an improved
breed of -cattle or variety of vegetable or
a packageof,supetior seed which has
come from a dietanoe. Apparently he
does not for a moment entertain the
idea that it would be to his profit to
keep such knowledge or specimens to
himself. And if another farmer comes
to see hiroahe is pleased to show all
his possessions, and there are no cor-
ners of the place by which the visttor
is hurried because some experimenting
•is going on there which the owner does
not care to - have seen, as is often the
case when a visitor makes the grand
rounds of a factory. Contrast this
habit of the faianers with the way that
neighboring merchants and manufac-
turers do their business. Why, when
it was first proposed to connect the pa-
perViaills in Holyoke with their offices
in this city by telephone, objection was
at once raised that the paper 'makers
might possibly learn each other's secrets

how much you shall apply, and what

think over itt advance the amount of
labour, you shall need. by the month,
and just what you expect this labour to
be worth to you; and how.nauch you
can afford to pay for labour towards
carrying out your plans. It is also well
to think out what you can save by buy-
ing implements Or ixiachinery,and justi-
fy a ready decisi in the one way or the
other. A horse oseessea five times the
power of a mans nd,if rightly combined,
a horse and a man -should accomplish
six men's labour.. If now the spring
farming . is planned on the basis of
horse labour, much ,more, can be effi-
ciently accomplished than hand labour
is capable of, or haphazard labour
which a crop mar' chance to re-ceive.
There is a wide difference between the

ed for by the difference between the
men who farm them—the pronapt, care-

in production of crops, the slack, hard-
working, laborious, less careful -think-
ing neighbour. In farming, accurate
thinking tells; forethought is an im-
portant factor of success. Careful

The sheep pens are also open, and hold

the yards and are sheltered with roofs,

yet again, for 2,000 swine. These ant

roads remain under slielter. Four thous-
and head of horned oattle have room at
one time, together with the other num-
bers given. The alley -ways, pens. and
causeways are floored with granite
blocks.. There are four hotels, one on

How Soldiers Fared in '76.
.Some curious old papers, some of
them on State affairs, have come i to
the possession of the Secretary of ar
at Washington. The following is s# d-
ly interesting for the disclosure it mal es
of terrible privations :in the patr ot
cause in the Revolutionary days, s ch
as finally tempted too , successfuly o te
brilliant officer to become a trait )r.
Arnold's suffering does not excuse hi n,
for the rest suffered ha much as he as d
,rOna ai nea true.
Among the papers is a letter of Be e-
dict Arnold; written just thirty-fo
days before he consigned his name to
infamy. It is dated at West Point, a id
addressed to Col. Pickering, quart r -
master at Philadelphia. It Cells a story
of the privations of the Revolution ry
heroes. He states "that there is no a
tent or any kind of camp equipage at
'
this place •'" and "the quartermast rs
departmenaia entirely empty, and t at
there is only onea-Canspakettle to eig • ty
or one hundred men."
He complains very bitterly of this st to
of things, and begs Col. Pickering o
find. a remedy, and adds a postscript to
his letter, in which he says: Th:re
is not a quike of paper Or article of s
tionery ab this post or in the depa t-

Writing by Telegraph.
A new invention of a practical ch
actor has just been made by Mr. E.
Cowper, 0, well-known English mech
ical Engineer. It ie a real telograp
writing machine. The writer in Lo
don moves his Pen, and simultaneou
at Brighton another pen is moved,
though by &phantom hand, in precis
similar curves and motions. T
wiiter writes in London, and the i
marts in Brighton. Those who ha
seen the instrument_ at work say th
its raarvele are quite as startling
those of the telephone. The pen at t
receiving end has all the appearance
being guided by a spirit hand. The a
paratus is shortly to be made public
fore the public Society of Telegra
Engineers. A facsimile of the writi
machine shows that the words are for

Oysters in China.
Ili China large quantities Of oysters
are dried instead of being eaten in the
fresh state. For that purpose they are
taken from the shells, simply plunged
into boiling water, and then removed at
once, after which process they are ex-
posed to the rays of the sun until every
particle of moisture has evaporated. In
that state they will keep for a length of
time, and are said. to preserve all the
delicacy of their flavor. The fmest and
fattest bivalves, bred and fed on leaves
and cuttings of the bamboo, are selected
for preparation by this method, those
taken from the natural beds being in-
ferior in quality, and not sufficiently
plump to stand the operation.
