There ate some advantages in maktog large cheers. They take lessbeediewor. quite less labor in handling whileeuring, and the expense of boxing less than when they are made smaller. To this may be added; less waste in shrinkage. All these points are well understood by cheese makers, and they therefore make an eilort to retain the old Myles. Unfortunately the markets step in and reject the old styles, giving preference to the smaller 617. P. They do not abso lutely command the dairymen to stop making large cheeses, but they say platnly,and have done en all summer, If you continue to persist in this course, you mutt take a less price as a conse quence. Some persons not understanding the =theta, insist that this matter is malty nothing more than a clever trick of the dealers for the purpose of purchasing at low rates.

When quality wag alike, the small cheese have always been worth the meat money. The reasons are obvious. The small cheese are more easily handled; there is lets loss in case of breakage or accident; there is lesa-waste in cutting, and they are moreaaleable to persons purchasing for family is& We may remark here, that In England the shops for retailing cheese are often kept by wo men, who are unable readily to handle a heavy cheese. In the home trade large cheese have - always been objectionable, on account of heavy handling, and loss from breakage, skippers, and waste from drying during the time employed for cutting up and selling small quantities at retail Some of the home-dealers have instructed their agents for several years past, to purchase nothing but small sized cheese during hot weather. and, from this came the-requisition on the' part of pur chasers, that dairies of 40 to 5 cows should di vide their curds, making two cheeses per day. Recently the smaller dairies have improved in their manufacture, making cheese of as fine a quality thr the bestand thus have they been able to outsell the larger dairy. though equally One, when size was large. A desirable size fur the home trade, is to press the curds in a 14, 15 or 16 inch hoop ; making the cheese about five inches high. For the English market two styles are sought after—the fiat cheese above described. and the Cheddar shape, which is 15 inches In diameter by 11 or 12 inches high. Small cheese weighing about 10 pounds, if nicely made, meet with a ready sale and at an advanced price. either in the home or f"reign markets. Some manufacturers the present season have been making as small as seven pounds They are put up, several together, in square boxes and shipped, and command very high pricers The highest priced cheese that has been sent from Herkimer county the present season, up to Oc tober 12th, was obtained for that made on the dairy farm of the writer, in 11 Inch hoops, and weighing shout 20 pounds each. It is believed a greater discrimination as to size and qualities of cheese will be made next season, than ever before. A choice article, put up in desirable shape, will meet with ready sales, and at a high figure. Factorieaand family dairies should provide themselves with the right kind of hoops, so as to be able to take advantage of the markets and obtain the best prices. If factories persist in making large cheeses, they must expect to be outsold by the small family dairies, and the tendency of this will be to break up the factory system, since farmers will not pay from ltjto 2c. per pound for having their cheese made in factories, and see the private dairies outselling at from 1 to 2c. per pound. The great argument for the establishment of factories was, that the cheese outsold that made in the family, by enough to pay the coat of making. When the argument can be used In favor of family dairies, persona will be found in every neighborhood to draw off their patronage from the factories, and the number of cows will be reduced. it is feared, to that extent as to be un profitable to run the establishment. The home trade promises to be very large the coming year. Our people, it would seem, have Just found out that nice palatable cheese can be manufactured, and while they are willing to pay for tt a good round price, they will insist that it be put up M a shape that ensures the least loss toransumeris X. A. W. in Country Gattlenurn.. Cooking an Old Hen The editor of the Massachusetts P&sughmass, who is something of a wag withal, disci:motes as follows on the above mentioned feat in culinary science: • As we had occasion a few days ago to state the age at which a chicken passes from chicken to hen-hood, and alluded to the difficulty of making an old fowl tender, we feel under some obligation to say that there is a method of doing even this. The French do it any way. Wonderful pets. ple those French are, in the cooking line. With us it is an eternal roast and boil. 'And the thing can't be done in that way. Our pen ple seem to have an abhorrence of "messes." and the consequence is we contrive to make the larg eat quantity of meat do the least possible service in the way of feeding's hungry appetite. Put an old hen, or an old cock either, as to that matter. into the pot or down to the fire for the prescribed length of time, and it becomes tougher and hard er. We presume there can he no doubt of that; if there is, try it and you'll surely find it so-- But there are other ways of making her not only more wholesome, but more tender, palatable and valuable. Take. for example, what the French call pot-au. feu. We haven't - anything just like it in this country and so we don't exactly know what to call it It really means "pot on the tire" At any rate it is the solace of a Frenchman and is famil iar to every French woman who knows the first thing about cooking in all classes of society from the highest to the lowest. Here the old hen is the principal ingredient She adds not only strength but flavor. But she isn't thrown in whole, to be boiled for-dear life as we cook that venerable bird. She is cut up into small joints and simmered for a long time, hours together, till bel flesh becomes soft and tender, and leaves the bones and turns to a pulp. Now the delicacy of flavor of this deli cicala dish is due to the old . hen, and it isn't mere ly what forms it as it is brought upon our tables. but every part goes in, such as thr neck, thehead. the gizzard, the liver, the heart and the feet. And it is'nt the poor, who are obliged to be economi cal, in France, that eat and revel in this dish. It is the easy classes who live on their incomes as well. This "rot onthefrrer in &Preach kitchen is the receptacle for almost everything that b-ents.; hie, such as broken bones of all kinds, cheap hits of coarse beef cut up in little square pieces, some carrots, turnips, leeks and potatoes, and if it is spring when peas are in the pod, a dozen pods, run through and strung together by a needle and thread ,are put In to give flavor, - and taken out be fore the pa au feu is served up. It is a soup, but for all thatit isa dish& fora king; and for a farm er too as to that matter, and how vastly superior in every respect to a bit of coarse stringy beef, a considerable part of which will perhanahe wasted. Now if there is any one who don't like soups. because they are *' 'nothing' but spoon whiles," there is another way to serve np an old hen so that she shall manifest, to mortal palate, all the delicacy and tenderness of youth. Just cut her up into joints, taking care to go by the joints so that you don't get in any splinters of bones. Fick up all the bits of meat you have in the house, bones too if there is any meat on them, any odd pieces of ham or bacon, leg or shoulder of mutton and a slice of salt pork, and cut a few slices of fat ba con and .dome bread. Take an earthen vessel with an earthen cover, with a bit of a hole in it, the cover, we mean, and put a layer of bread at the bottom of this vessel, then a layer of bacon, and then MI in with all thescrapg and joints yuu happen to have, they'must be sweet and clean of course, till the vesset is full. Then fdl up the hol lows and cracks between with . Water, and tie down the lid. Pat it at night in a very warm, not hot oven, and let it stay till morning. Take it out at your leisure and put it in a cool place, and when perfectly cold you'll eat it witbagusto, either fur breakfast, luncheon, dinnero or supper, and you'll find it not only tender; bat juicy, and delicately flavored and highly nutritious. The water that you put in will have turned into a jel ly, and the whole will cut like red veined mar ble. There Is no way in the world you can cook an old fowl so economically or so splendidly.

'Pregnantly I would cut myself, some times so severely that I have been laid up for weeks. I wonla try all kinds of salve, but the wound would lit a long time healing. One day I cut my hand severeli, and as I had nothing at hand to put on it I thought I would try acme of the bright varnish; nail is R sticky substance, I thought it might stick the wound together. Ac cordingly I hound up my hand with it and kept nn at work ; the varnish relieved the pain, I bad no soreness in the wound, and in one week it was entirely healed. My son was sawing through a board one day, and carelessly put his hand under the board. He had his forefinger bone entirely sawed off. I put the ends together put on this varnish and bound it up. The result was, that after one week the bandage was re moved, and the finger had nearly grown to gab ' er. My horse once haersrgatehes so badly that it was difficult to get him to move about. I rubbed the'parts affected with this varnish for two days. which caused a perfect care. The varnish can be bought at the paint shops for six or eight cents per quart.

AN ENGLISHMAN ON GRANT AND SHERMAN. FIIOIII TILE STORY OF TUE (MEAT IfABOII, BY SU- JOR menoLs. Ulysses Grant is a man of genius; one who will be found to have contributed fresh materi als to thenrt of war. With him 4 siege is a campaign. Instead of driving off the covering army from a fort or city, as old rules insisted must be .done, before commencing operations against it, Grant manceuvres to keep the cover ing army near him, to throw it within the lines. to compel it to take a part in the defense, and to fall when the beleagured fortress falls. This plan has the disadvantage of making a siege appear long to perplexed critics who cannot see that the close of the siege is to be, under this new system, the close of a campaign. At Don elson and at Vicksburg, Grant's plan was car ried out ; in each the covering army fell with the fortlesa, and in each the blow was final.— The fall of Fort Donelson and its covering army pot an end to the war in Kentuctky and Western Tennessee; the fall of Vicksburg and its cover ing army opened the Mississippi River, never to be closed again hy Southern guns. Each cam paign was final ; not only sweeping away the army in the field, together with the stores, guns; clothing, ammunition, but crushing in the catas trophe, all sparks of the rebellious fire. Where Grant had once been, it was found impossible to raise a second rebel corps. The fighting spirit was Buttoned. Sherman, when we come to know him at all, was in some respects better comprehended by the critics than Grant had been. Alter Sadan nab fell into his power, all nonsense about his being drawn from his base and flying to his ships died rent among us. The horse guards be to study his remarkable march; acid the Duke of Cambridge went to preside at a meet• ing of the United Services to hear an explans tionlif it in detail. From that day forward, simply because We began to know him, Sher man became our hero of the war, and once or twice the newspapers ventured to say that the South would be conquered by his arms. At Gaylesville Sherman may ho said to have stripped for the great march. He was going to Richmond, a distance like that from Paris to Bucharest; and all that way of a thousand miles he 'Foetid have to pass through an enemy's conntry. For some part of his long journey be could reckon on no help, no stores, no forage, save those waifs and strays which his keen eye could see and his strong arm could seize. Aware that he might have to light for every mile of ground, for every beast of burden, for every sack of corn, a sharp and short command Iron , headquarters educed the army to its barest fighting and marching power. All the sick wer e sent back. Non combatants were driven off from the camp. All impedimenta, such as horses, tents, chairs, tables, were left behind.— Gustavus in Pomerania, Napier in Scinde, was not more peremptory than Sherman in Gworgia. But the great General never asked a soldier to put up with worse fare and worse lodging than he reserved for himself. He slept in his blanket on the ground; he fed on hard lack; and when the Secretary of War, as his guest, dined with him at Savannah, he apologized for the appear ance of potted meats and fruits on his hablo as luxuries unbecoming a soldier's mess. The troops bad that undoubting faith in his genius which Napoleon inspired in his army, and Nel son ll his fleet. When be ordered things to be done which they coulJ . scarcely understand, they merely said, "Well, he can't make a mistake," and then they did it, Nothing like this flinging of an army of 70, 000 men trom their base into a vague field of operation had ever been seen. A movable col umn is tat best a perilous trial, even when form ed on a small scale and sent into the territories of such toes as France encounters in Algiers and England in India. The nearest approach to Sherman's movement was the famous flank march after the Alma when the-allies broke up their 'Camp and passed from their base at Old Pori and set off in search of a new one at Bal aclava. It was a dangerous feat, contrary to rule, and has been slimly condemned. Yet this change of base was an affair of a day; the French and Eageish ships were at hand, and the materials war were all on board. Sherman had no supplies to fall back on. Between him and the sea lay three handred miles of Savan nah swamp end sand. A hundred water courts es crossed his path. He would have roads to make, morasses to turn, rivers to bridge and cross . Where was he to find food for that mlgh ty host! Does manna grow on the beach and in the pine woods? asked one of his aides-de camp. With thirty days' rations in stock, be was going in search of his enemy and his sip plies. I t was an original and daring adventure; one to have puzzled a martinet like Raglan, and enough to have driven 'Aulic councilors mad.— But the officers and men of the northern army put their trust in the man who could not make a mistake. "Where he put na," they would say to each other, "we are going in, and we are dead sure to whip the rebs—sure." It is the spirit in which battles are won, and Republics saved. His staff is smaller than that of any brigade commander In the service. He denies himself and his staff the luxury of a house. He bas few er servants, fewer horses, than the regulations allow. He has just refused the commission of l'iltijorJelteneral in the regn'ar army on the ground that such exalted rank should be kept In reserve by the authorities until the war is over, when the government will be able to compare and judge men's services with greater coolness. As he comes plunging along, we see the man's character in the way in which he rides. The road is occupied by a brigade In motion ' • he tarns ihtnitte fields, dashing through brush and briar, wading stream, floundering into swamps, so long as these will yield a way ; and when tamed to take the road again, you see that he pulls up ble bnrse and halts until the brigade bas passed. The smooth path, he sari, is for the men on fobt. Men with rifles and kits, not the general and his staff, have the first right to the road. Can we wonder at the trust in which sharp lawyers and solid farmers follow such a man t One day, looking back, the men saw a line of bridges in their rear in flames "Guess, Charley," says a trooper, "Sherman has set the river on fire." To which Charley answers, "Well, if he has, reckon on it's all right." By marching through the heart of South Carolina, instead of skirting the sea, Sh e rm an pierced the State in its most vital part it was the boast of Davis and Breckinridge that the sea was not necessary to the South. The porta might be given up, and the power would be stronger fur the loss. Their strength lay Inland. Well, Sherman marched inland; shutting up one (=federate general in Augusta, another in Branchville, a Wird in Charleston, and a fourth in Columbia. These generals never knew where the blow would fall, and it never fell whore they thought it likely to do. As Sherman mov ed up northward, leaving Charleston on his right, Beaurezard was confident that he would have to assault Branchville. a great railway cen tre, and a post from which be could equally me nace Charleston and Angnsta. Branchville was. accordingly, strengthened with works, and oc cupied in force, But Sherman cut the railway linets" turned the place, and compelled the ene my to abandon their works and guns. -Branch vide passed, and Columbia gained, Charleston fell of itself,—aa Sherman had foretold Wan nab. Sherman's genius comes out brightly to the war. He was not one of the fighting generals. When it was necessary to bit hard, as at Avery& boro and Bentonville, no Hooker, no Hood could strike more vigorously than he; but the e , peculiarity of his march is that it was a great campaign conducted without a great battle. If it be the highest praise of guilds that It produce es magnificent results with trifling perturbetkeut, Sherman well deserves that praise, It hi doubt ful whether the long history of war lairds an example of sach.spiendid militia achiftnisit4 oleo slight a cost of Ws - wAR ioowao AID BIIQIIgG. - Liana' In the Oticagmekriofkart, dlseoUris• lag upon the influence of the war in preducitur music Mid songs, thns refers to the history of that M famous American war song, "Rally Round the sgr .

When the immense voice of Lombard. after ringing once through the first verse and chorus, took up again the strain, the assembled thouaands catching the melody. joined In with "down with the traitors, Op with the stars," till the whole e.anopy of heaven shook as ten thou sand voices swelled the chorus of "We'll rally round the deg, boys, Rally °Deena-Din,. Shouting the battle•my of Freedom.' History recalls to us many instances of the Immense power that &stirring song has wielded In inspiring soldiers on the battle-field. On the night before the grand charge which won for the combined forces of France and England the victory at Sebastopol, while the soldiers were sitting in the trenches, knowing that on the next morning they were to march over a route which would be.a journey of death to many, a voice through the stillness of the night was heard singing the beautiful song of "Annie Lau rie." One after another gradually joined in the song, till finally from all that corps of Highland er* was heard rising the plaintive though earn est pledge, "And fur Bonnie Annie Laurie, lay me down and dee." They all knew that on the morrow many would lie down in death be fore the murderous fire of the Redan, yet each pledged himself to win honor for his bonnie Annie and for the cross of St. Andrews; and the history of the next day shows bow well they re deemed their pledge. On the same day the sol diers of France, marching up the steeps of Mala- koff, recoiled before its deadly sheets of flame.— In vain their officers begged them to sustain their own honor and that of the imperial eagles. In vain they appealed to that love of glory which has so often made the French army victorious A murmur arose among them for their song, which had been proscrihed. Louder grew the call, till finally there uprose the shout from the whole army, "Give us the Marseillnisa." And what ambition, honor, and fidelity failed to do. was accomplished by the power of a sone. For up through flame and smoke, End volleys of balls they rushed over the walls of the Malakoff and through the breachus, while above the roar of the cannon and the din of battle, rose the sublime chorus, from ten thousand voices, of the war song of Rouget de 'lsle.

The author of that song has deserved and re ceived the personal thanks of many of our Gen erals for giving the inspiration which aroused and sustained the enth ueiasm of our soldiers on many a hard fought field.
