Local Correspondence. ULSTER. The festivitiesof Christmas and New Year's days have changed into the usual routine of business and - labor, and . while some were enjoying the pleasures of these holidays; others have been called upon to pass through afflictions. The "New - Tear's Boat" last evening xas a success in every particular ; a large attendance and a large amount of gift*. A fine boat rigged with complete masts, sails, etc., and decorated with evergreens and Hags.was placed upon the stage in the town hall, and was completely filled with as fine a "cargo" as ever a ship - could desire, of presents for the old, the middle aged, the youth and the children. '‘Theexercises opened with singing by the choir, a New Year's greeting, entitled " From Bright Lands I Come," followed by prayer by Rev. W. Foster, and singing by the Sunday School, "Good- Bye to the Old Year," after which was the distribution of gifts, and as- some of the elder ones were handed their respec tive. tokens we could not but notice the furrows of care seftenould in their place appear the bright sunshine of gladness, and smiling countenances. We reported last week that these exercises were to be . held in the M. E Church, bat the trus tees of said church passed resolutions that such exercises were not appropriate (?) to be held in a church, so the Sunday School was obliged to occupy the towv hall for the purpose. ' - -Miss Susie Brooks, of llonallsville, N. Y., has 'been the guest of Miss Minnie Shaw during the holidays. • W. R. Weller and wife, of Athens, were the guests of C. P. Forrest and C. L. Thomas during New Year's. Mr. A. Olmrteadis quite sick, the re sultof a severe c.lld affecting a recent vaccination. The Stinlay School Aid Society met at the residence of C. E. Ferguson last Fri day evening„and was an enjoyable meet ing. The debate waA participated in by nearly, all present. The next meeting will be held at the residence of James Irving, on Friday_ evening, January 18th. There always seems_to be a rough ele ment present upon any festival occasion, and in the one just past we have no ex ception. We_ refer to the rowdyism ex hibited by some roughs who occupied the rear part of the Monday evening, - Who, during the whole exercises continu ally.interrupted by loud talking, scuitling, whistling-, and when names were called made it their business to make- remarks .that were rough and insultitig. We hope that we 'shall never have occasion to - speak of such behavior again, for it is certainly to be regretted that those who — (111 themselves young men - should be guil ty of such demeanor. _ Miss Sarah Stevens, of Macedonia, who has been visiting friends in Waverly; stayed with Mrs. C. Rockwell - Monday night. James Irving was elected Superiu , TTeirdent of the M. E. Sunday School last Sunday for the ensuing year. - Messrs. James Phillips, George Bird, and Mis; Fraukie Howe and; Miss New man, of Smithfield, were present ; at the. New Year's exercises Monday evening. Miss Edith Horton, of .ShesheqUin, we noticed also was present. Mr. G. H. Van Dyke has been called upon foci pass througil deep affliction by the loss of his little son Jaines, who died Saturday from diphtheria, hiving been ill . but a few . days. Jimmie was a blight lit tle fellow of about six years of age, and but one short week agkwas,iiit attendant at-our school, and gavesigrai of being a leader of his class awl a useful member 'of society, had his life been spared. The funeral was held at the residence of Mr. Van Dyke, on Monday at 11 o'clock a. - It. Among those present at the funeral were Mr. 0. N. Taylor and wife, of South To wanda,;- and Mfg. Lyman Blackman, of Towanda, all relations of the deceased child: Mr. Vat Dyke has' the sincere sympathy of all our people in this his sad bereavement. January 3. 18S2. He Ind Vol Mace Matters. A representa ire of the Lynn, (Mass.) /ton, in a late ramble through that city, gathered among other scraps of interest and information, the following : The first pl.^ce visited by the reporter was the fruit store - of Mr. .T., Levett, No. 67 Market street; in response to a rumor that the proprietor had been cured of the rheuma tism by the great remedy. Mr. Levett not being in, the repO i rter had a talk with his son: Mr. Levett ,stated that his fath er had been cured of an exceedingly bad attack of rheumatism%y the St. Jacobs Oil. Ile,had the disease in his right arm and shoulder, which became perfectly_ helpless after being affected a few heurs. His pain was so great that he could not rest in comfort.or attend ti busineseowith any degree of satisfaction. After endur ing thiS sort of thing for some time, ho purchased a bottle of the Great German Remedy and began to apply it. He did not mince matters at all, but just used th? Oil for all it was worth. After pur suipg this mode of treatment for three days the pain was banished and his fath er was in a pe - ifectly healthy condition. He has never since felt any rheumatic pain. . . I=I:1 THE LEIIIGII VALLE? RAILROAD. Sunday's Boftalo Coniniercia; contains the following about. : the Lehigh's recent* purchase in that city : The Lehigh Valley Railroad has within the past few weeks made a large purchase of property to ac • commutate its imthense . coal =traffic. It has bought the Tifft farm in this - city, ; consisting of over 400 acres of land, pay ing therefore about .$300,000. On this • property the company will construct an enormous stocking trestle to -hold be tween sixty and seventy thousand tons of coil, which; with the room already held by the road, will give it a storage of about one hundred thousand tons of coal in Buf falo. It is thought at no distant day the Blackwell Canal will be carried up to the new property, and the company extend „its road from Geneva to this city. A new engine -house is being built for the compa ny on the Tifft farm, Which will have ac cominodations for six locomotives. - The coal traffic of the road for the Let fiscal year reached 5,791,3;0 tons. and increase of 1,184,961 tons over the previous year. The Lehigh Valley Transportati..n pang was organized durin,c6lae year, and purchased the poeamsliiPs .! lL .A. Packer and-Oceanica, and lea Led the steamships City of Rome and - Queen of the West and the schoOner B. F. Bruce to transport its coal from Bufta!o t,) Western lake ports. The company will probably purchase four more steam crafts this winter for its lake trade. - • - - flo t: B. Dick:, E.q., associate editor of the I)...lAware Col.llify Republican, Chester.

No one who has a dairy, and.therefore has given 3 any attention to the feeding of cows, int knows-as the cold weather comes on_there is a greater demand upon %he' , animal! economy for supplying :heat, and a consequent call for an increase of food: In the. very face ollthis Well-known truth, there are many farmers who are very slow to see the force of this, or seeing it; are sluggish, to say the least, in taking measures to make the cows warnpand comfortable in tfie cheapest and easiest way. So . soon as a:!con , I will become* chilled from cola out of doors, she should be taken to the stable and kept there, except for an occasional run of a few minutes for excercise, until warm weather comes again. Cows should be hnused, be cause it is cheaper to keep them warm that way, and in the second place, for their health and comfort they Should have good shelter. The dairy- Inan also knows full well that the - quality of the butter depends in great measure upon the milk, whether it has been kept clean or not -If the milk becomes tout in the stable, no amount of neatness afterwards will bring back the flavor and the per fection that would otherwise have made it easy to obtain the highest price. in the market. The writer has seen Cows milked, taut milked from a single one of; which would taint that from a large dtdry. Not only should the cows be well fed and sheltered but they need to be proper ly milked. This will require that they be cleaned before milking, that there may not be any dirt to fall in the pail. This carding and brushing should not . be confined to the udder, but should extend over the whole body, as it is an important item' in their healthful keeping, as well as a means of obtaining clean and pure milk. - ' . . The pig is frequently mentioned as being the domestic farm animal that is nearest to man in its anitomical structure. Whether this issonr not the pig . has a very sensitive nature.' and any severe cold interferes serious ly with its profitable keeping. The pig is n machine - for making_ pork . , and with this distinctly understood,' no farmer_vvhU wishes to make his pig-sty pay should permit his swine to go half-way sheltered - from the c - olci;:sto - rms. Any neglect to' .pro tect causes a greater drain upon the animal; for suppking the necessary. heat,-in the name way as mentioned while speaking of the stabling of cows.

' The importance of 'keeping the. hens warm and well fed cannot be, urged too strongly, A fresh egg is the 'only one to be trusted, and it.is not a difficult thing to have it. , The great enemy of fowls is lice, and one of the best preventatives. is plenty of kluSt•in which the hens Can revel at their own free l will. A knowing writer has said :"As for henS; they not only enjoy it, but dust is a necess ity, and a luxikk to them,' just as a bath is to civilized men. The -.dilat ing box Is their toilet table—in fact bath tub, wash-bowl and pitcher, sponge and brush and soap,.and gives health and long life. as surely as the free use of water does the human beings." Hens. that are . in: , close quarters need,a va;riety.of food; they. would have it if they were allowed a fresh run. •Grain is their principal food, but cabbage boiled potatoes, in fact anything green or like the for ege which they gather in the sum mer, adds to the value of the diet. They must also be provided with ,plenty of lime in the form of finely. powdered . oyster. shells, plastering, Are, 4nd last, but4not least, an abun& once of fresh water. • Probably no other forms . of sen tient or injury come upon us so -un expectedly us those due to excessive Cold. As a general thing we are not aware that a part is being frozen un til the mischief is already done, This is due toile fact that one of the' effects of severe cold is to destroy the sensitiveness of the parts exposed. Surge* make use of this fact in small operations and cool .the parts by, artificial cold. The ears the nose, sometimes the cheeks, and the hands and feet are the most liable to 'be frozen. One of the first effects of freezingsis to stop the circulatioS of the blood, and any,part in whicn the circulation is checked by other, means is all the more likely to be frozen. The old fashioned skates, held on by numerous tight straps across the feet, are dangerons on this account; and to keep them in plack the straps are drawn so tightly' as to impede the Circulation in the feet. and frost-bit ten feeVare often the consequence. Though the 'Operation of freezing is painless, a sudden thawing is at tended with infiamation ;and great pain. The thawing should be very slow' in order that the circulation in the parts may be restored gradually. For this reason it is advised _to rub the frozen parts with snow, or in the absence of that, with water made as cold as possible with ice. It is said that isi.-B.nssia when . one observes that another's nose or face is being frozen, it is an act of common• polite ness to catch up a handful of snow Winter junta Fro,lt Bites and Chiftlains. and apply It to the - face Of thkunktr tunate, even if he is a perfect strang er.'. In eases of severe freezing; W ailes glidusd thawing by the use of snow or ice, a physician - should he called, as it may be that proper pre cautions ate needed to prevent morti fication of the parts. It is not riee cessary for the feet to be actually frczen to produce chilblains. The, term frost-bitten is usually applied to 'anal cases. Children often suffer from getting their feet very cold, and then going to the fire to warm them.--„. The circulation is disturbed and the parts remain exceedingly sensitive to future cold and heat. Chilblains vary from ,a slight , inflamation, to severe cases in Which the skin.breaks and even ulcers are formed. Of course such cases require profession al, treatment. To allay the intense itching and pain of ordinary chit blsins. a great number of appli cations o haVe been used An ounce of Sul phate of Zine(White - Vitrol), in a pint of water, or an ounce of SalAnt monine dissolved in a half pint each of. vinegar and Alcohol are among the washes often used. It is stated , on good authority, though we have - not had Occasion to use it, 'that the - application of Ordinary kerosene oil is very efficacious in allaying the itching and 'pain.—Ainerican- Agri._ culturist for January. i $l6OO per year can be easily made at home working for E: G.

The sentimental pretensions put forward by a political school which holds that_ woman is intellectually the eqiial of man, give a Character' of actuality to the question of the comparison of the:sexes. This ques tion, which it has been the custom to treat from a metaphysical point of_ view, is to us purely anthropological, - or rather zoological ; for- we propose to.showthe characteristic examples .borrowed from animal kingdom ihat.sexually undergoes. the- - same ev olution In all species, including the hainan species. The female surpass es the male in certain inferior ape-- cies. smaller than the females among many cephalopods, and among some eirrapcds."
