Farmers* Column. Difference in Cows. Cows, under certain constitutional circum stances, are natuially disposed to convert their food into fat, so much so that there is great diffi culty in keeping some classes in a breeding state, more especially improved Short Horns, Devons and Herefords. Turn a cow of this description into rich grass, and she is soon use less for any thing but the shambles. The qual ity of the milk she gives may be fine, but the quantity almost nothing. We had a Devon, the property of a noble Duke, which carried oft the piize of her class at one of the Royal Agri cultural Society's meetings, not giving more than one quart at milking. On the other hand, there is a class of cows naturaily inclined to turn ail their food inlo the pail. Turn a cow of this kind along with the one above, and she will rather get poorer every day, if the milk is taken from her, while her plump and sleek rival is gaining weight. The former will consume greatly more grass and water than the litter, returning lor it in pro portion a stiii greater quantity. In two dairies, when fed on sour grains, distillers' wash, &cc., the quantity sometimes yielded is almost incred ible. When such is the case, however, life is generally short, especially i! cows are in a low Ftate at calving. Hence the reason why dairy men purchase near-calves. The above two classes may be called exlremes, between which there is a mean, and this latter class of cows, if turned info a rich pasture a long with the others, would keep themselves in good condition, and give a medium quantity of milk, the quantity depending upon the richness of the food.— .Marl; Lane Express. I'ure for Ringbone. Ha ving noticed an inquiry in the Rural for a cure of Ringbone, I thought I would send one, which I know to be sure, it having cured a val uable horse for me, after lameness of two years, during which time the horse was not harnessed. I have used her on road and farm for nine years since the cure. Take 1 oz. of camphor gum ; 1 oz. oil of spike ; 1 oz hartshorn ; 1 oz. spirits of turpentine. Shake well together, and it is fit for use; put it on above the ring, and rub it with the finger, use twice a day. ANOTHER REMEDY. —Noticing in a late num ber of the Rural an assertion that there was no cure for the Ringbone, I bog leave to disagree with that opinion. I cured one the past sum mer, by the use of Balsam of Fir rubbed on until it penetrated !he skin, then thoroughly heated it with a hot iron, and continued until a slight soreness was discovered. This is but one of several cases in which I have known the Balsam to be successful.— Rural j\'ew Yorker. HUMANITY TO HORSES.—A person who has had some experience with horses savs : "When a horse has fallen, from the slippery •♦ate of the ground, th readiest method of ena bling him to rise is to place a piece of old rug or carpet under his forefeet, and hp will be able to get up at once. Many fiorses are seriously strained by their efforts to rise on slippery ground, and this is most particularly the case with those of high spirit, and frequently those of greatest value are so frightened by the fall that greater injuries to themsehfs, as well as danger to those in the car riage, ensue from vain efforts to get up than by the fall. Let the dri ver leap down at once and assist the horse in a position to get up, at the same time placing the rug, carpet, or even an old coat under his feet." THE PGTATOE DISEASE. —The potatoe disease has made great progress in England and Ireland, the past s< as n. So convinced of the injurious effects of the potatoe are some of the physicians, that they have denied their use to children, as liable to create eruption, and to injure the stomach.

FOUR HUNDRED YEARS AOO. Wild were thy plains, Columbia, Thy plains of evergreen : And ne'er before upon thy shore VVere foreign foot-prin!s seen ; But, through thy groves the savage rov'd, Where mountain streamlets flow, Where brave Columbus crossed the seas, Four hundred years ago! With heart of steel that fear'd no ill, With followers true and brave, Me bade farewell his native dell, And tried the iieach'rous wave ; He dar'd to roam the ocean foam, Wh ere stormy breezes blow, And to thy shore glad tidings bore, Four hundred years ago! Faith was the guide—frith true and tried— That cheered him on his way, And pointed out the pathless route To where thinelslet3 lay ; Hope was the star which shone afar With bright and dazzling glow, And steer'd his bark 'mid dangers dark, Four hundred years ago! But chang'd the scene since then, I ween The savage chieftains fled, And where of old the grim wolf'stroll'd, Proud cities reared their head ; And fertile plains of golden grain In rich luxuriance grow, Where ail was drear as autumn sear, Four hundred years ago! On many a crag our starry flag Waves o'er the brave and five, Our natives ride in all their pride, On every sounding sea ; And nations gaze in stark amaze, For well the nations know Our name and fame was not the sams Four hundred years ago! And far away where the wil l winds play Through the forest's dismal night, An iron steed with lightning speed Darts like a ray of light ; And steamers glide o'er the sparkling tide, Where weary and faint and slow, The red man drew his light t canoe, Four hundred years a"-o ! J O Then, hail Columbia, happy land, Home of ttie poor oppressed ! i\lay stili to thee the exile flee, And find a place of rest ; And may thy power increase each hour, Thy sons in virtue grow, And die or save what Colon gave, Four hundred years ago ! A KNUCKLING BlLL. —General Duryear has given notice of, and is prepared to introduce into the New York assembly, a bill to prohibit the manufacture, sale, and possession of the bru tal and murderous weapon recently come into general use, and known as "brass knuckles." This dangerous article is a new invention of the coward and tlre ruffian. It is a brass or iron instrument, firmed with four holes through which the fingers or the hand are passed, and a smooth shoulder which rests on the lower part of the palm of the hand. When the fist is closed upon it, it projects with an arch over the fingers between the knuckles and the lower joints, and thus forms a most effective weapon with which to strike a blow. It is even more murderous when us"d by a powerful man than the slung shot, and will fell a man as certainly and almost as fatally as the pole-axe of the butcher will bring down an ox.

THE WONDER OF THE AGE! J. M. LIN SKY'S GREAT MEDICAL DISCOVERY! I Which is a purely vegetable Preparation, for the pu | rifying of blood, giving vigor Jo the Liver, --tomacii anil bowels, arid expelling from the system ail mor bid matter, and substituting in its stead a healthful . activity through all the functions of life. HOW IT WAS DISCOVERED! In the fall of 1851 a daughter of Mr. I.indsey was suffering from a malignant attack of Cancrum Oris (Canker of the mouth.) She had previously been prostrated by the attacks of Dysentary, Inhumation of the lungs and Hectic Fever, successively, which resulted in the above named disease in its worst form, ller condition was most deplorable—her mouth and cheek were literally rotten—the attending phy sician pronounced the case a hopeless one. every thing indicated a speedy and horrible death—the death of rolting out of life ! At this critical junc ture Mr. Lindsey prepared a compound for the pur pose ol alleviating, possible, the pains of the little sufferer. She was made (o use it freely, and in a short time to his most delightiu! astonishment, there was a very perceptible change for the better. The mouth began to put on a bright and healthy appear ance—the foul breath became sweet—the appetite was restored, and ttie child seemed to partake of a new and fresh life. Hope was inspired, and the use of the compound was faithfully continued, the result of which, with fhe blessing of God, was her complete restoration. She is now perfectly healthy! From this circum stance, Mr. Lindsey wasted to prepare with greater care and exactness, what had so astonishingly cured his child, and continued his experimental efforts un til he succeeded in bringing to perfection his Great liemei/y Jar Blood Impurity —since which time its effects Lave been almost miraculous. Hundreds upon hundreds, by it, have been snatched from an untimely grave arid restored to the sweets ol' health and the endearment of Iriends, The young and old have tested it. saving powers and sirg aloud its vir tues. Say they—"after using Lindsey's Improved Blood Searcher, we felt as if a new life was -lirritig our veins, and under God we owe to it more than words can express." But hear from their own lips and then judge of its valuable effects. The f.-w testimonials ibat follow! show I hat it i- deservedly styled the Greatest Disco v- ! eiy PJ' this or any other age. J. M.

I —This certifies that about one year ago our little! son aged four years, was most sorely afflicted with i what the physicians pronounced lo be a -crofula. ' and was treated accordingly for nearly a year, but j without the slightest benefit. Ilis eyes were running a thin mattery humor almost constantly; which would cncru-t his eyes beyond the power of opening them until they were washed and cleaned by soap arid wa ter. About the tame time an abscets formed just i below the groin, which in due time broke and com menced a discharge, which was found impossible to dry up or heal—the bed would be very much stained and the clothing of the child perfectly sickening in a single nights tune. After having the a tefitions of a physician lor so long a time, and finding the child to begetting worse, we determined to try the effects of Mr. Lindsey's Blood Searcher. This was in last March—and before two weeks had passed away the change was manifest, and 1 am happy to say that in the use of a SINGLE BOTTLE our little boy has been perfectly restored to health. We cannot speak too highly of this invaluable medicine. It should be in every family—none should be without it. Asa pu rifier of bloou it is beyond all price ! DANIEL BOLLINGER.

I leel that it would have been above ingratitude on my my part to have withheld this testimony, and in thus consenting to appear as a witness before the public. I have been actuated solely with reference to the voice of conscience and duty. You are at liberty to make whatever use you may deem pro per of this statement. Yours, respectfully, MARGARET W.
