This groat National work boa been
written in fulfillment of Mx. WI/ulna's
testamentary injunctions, and will be
completed with the lune of the second

noble subject requires no laudatory com.
meat from the press; we have only to
congratulate the publishers upon the
scholastic attainments and otherwise well
merited reputation of the editorial author.
Mr. Curtis was a protegi, companion

voted himself to this work u to a labor
of love. Nor tins ►e relied wholly upon
his own acquaintance, with a career which

evils himself to the broadest extent of
the eiperiancit and critical suggestions
of many of Mr. Webster's most intimate
surviving friends. -
Nearly seventeen years have elapsed
since the — death of this distinguished
Amaticai. Although aot a few of his
eotemporaries are still living, yet the
events since occurring, especially those of
the but decade, seem to have opened,
as the author suggests, a wide chasm in
the history of the • nation, separating the
present from the past of seventeen years
ago, as If, la fact, a century had inter.
vested. Mr. Warman, par eseeflence
the expounder and champion of the Con
!Undies', was spared from the mahappi•
mess of seeing that instrument assailed by
armed traitors, whose mad folly not even
his matchless eloquesthe and exhaustive
logic could have availed to arrest. His
dgure now stands before us, in this later
hour of restored peace and of reconstitu
ted and . perfected liberty, looming up
from the old era of !gnomes and of par
tneri expediency, like some inextinguiek

of safety for the careful mariner, but was .

its history shall bear, received from the
mightiest intellect upon which the XlSth
century dawned--all - these things appear
in this faithful record before us, with such
a wealth of incidental illustration, and of
absolutely new revelations of a personal
and political interest, as to render this
"Life of Daniel Webster" a monument
of inestimable justice to its great subject,
and a contribtthon to the history of the
Republic which no well-read clout!, of
professional or poittical inclinations, or of
a Merely literary taste; can afford to be
without..

Testing Flour.—An exchange gives the I
following simple mode as the proper way
to test flour: "Place a thimbleful in the
palm of your hand and rub it gently with
the linger. If the flour smooths down,
feeling gentle and slippery, it is of an in
ferior quality. But ifs the flour rubs
rough in the palm; feeling like fine sand,
and has an 'orange tint, purchase cold-'
dently. It will not disappoint you."
' Molasses Pudding.—One pound of flour,
one pound of molasses, one pound of
suet, and four egge, very well mixed, and
to be boiled from four to five hours. Add
a little nutmeg, and, if necessary, halt
pound of sugar.
Pried Sguashss.—Pare the squashes
and cut them in thinish pieces; snake a
thin batter of flour and water; dip -them
in it, and sprinkle with salt and pepper
after you lay them in the hot butter or
lard; fry brown in a rather quick oven,
or on the top of the stove;-then turn and
brown them on the other side.

use. Lay the silk on a flat surface, and
apply the liquid with a clean sponge, till
he dirt is well separated; dip each piece
in a pall of clear water and hang up to
dry without wringing. Iron while
damp, on the wrong side. Should the
silk be of more than one color, it is de•
sizable to wet a small piece first, lest

Winktring Sheep.—Farmers keeping
sheep ought to Bee that their quarters for
winter are comfortable. Plenty of room
should be provided, for sheep will not do
well when crowded into small quoit:as.
Their pens should be wellisentliat ed. A
coyering of draw makes atlnt•rate roof
ing. The floor should be well litered
with straw once in three or four days,
and as often cleaned. They should be
fed regularly. Hay should be disposed
In rub, easily reached while feeding,
yet blab enough to baclear of any con
tact with their feet on the und. If
fanners understood this fact; gro and put it
more to practice than, they do, they would
be g ainers by It.
__Sheep should not be fed too highly.
More is lost by high feeding than la
gained. An old uncle of mine, hiving

gether. If the entrance is sufficiently
large, there need be no danger of crowd
ing. All weakly, scrawny lambs or
sheep should be separated from those in
good condition, and allowed an extra al
lowance to "catch up." Poor scrawny
sheep never stand much chance in a flock
of fat, thrifty ones, as they are knocked
around, and seldom get their share of food.
I am glad to see that farmers are wak
ing up to their Interest, and getting sheep
of Improved breeds. The old fashioned
long and coarse.wooled kinds ought to
give place to such us the Southdowns,
Cotswold or Merino. Not only is the
yield of wool greater, but it is of so
perior quality, and brings a much higher
price.

Disturbing Sheep. —Prof. Miles, in his
observations on sheep, has called atten
tion ',to the of ,ct that sudden disturb•
ance, or any other kind of agita
tion, has on sheep. Ile found that any
disturbance, such as the passing and re
passing of stock, retarded the fattening
and frequently threw his sheep off their
feelfor a time. Mr. Julian Whittle, of
Albany, confirms the correctness of this'
obeervation, -and says on the subject of
winter care of sheep:
"Littering is something which must
not be neglected. I have stood In the
yard and noticed, when the littering or I
bedding was getting dirty, how carefully
the sheep avoided it, and how relnctautly
they lay down upon it; . and as soon as.'
the clean bedding was given them, I have I
seen them drop down - upon it, rest as
happy and contented, to all appearance,
as an exhausted person upon a bed of I
Straw. I believe that it is during this
period of rest that they acquire flesh, and
hence I would recommend that sheep be
kept as free from disturbance as possible. I
Never allow strangers in the yard, unless
feeders. I haye forty sheep in one pen I
that are kept absolutely undisturbed savB
by the daily visits of their feeder, and their
condition is better than those in any I
other pen, which fact I attribute wholly I
to the silence in which they are kept. I

three Lessons will cure any horse.
When a horse stands long in a stable
his legs are apt tq swell. No horse which
is not disabled by Bicknell; •or lameness'
should be allowed to stand long in the
stable. Inaction produces a dropsical
condition of the dependent parts of the
body, and the obvious remedy is to ex
ercise
the horse every day.
To prevent over reaching, pare the
heel of the forward foot low. This
-causes the horse as he moves - forward to
raise the forward foot quicker, and al
lows the hind foot to remain longer, so
that before the hind foot comes forward I
the forefoot is out of the way. Also,
I make the forward shoe long.. It my res.
coning is not plain let any one try the
experiment and they will be satisfied.—

Care of Poultry in Winter.—Very few
person( pay necessary attention to poultry
in winter, although at this season they
require constant care. A poultry house,
to be quite warm, should be constructed
with double walls and roof, like an ice
house, and should have as much glass as
possible to admit light and sunshine.
Boards, about four inches wide, are
better adapted for roosts than round poles,
las the fowls sitting on them an cover
their feet with their feathers-and protect
' them from frost. - Old bens ire not worth
I feeding; they should be got rid of, and
I young, vigorous ones substituted. When
more than three years old, hens are not
usually worth keeping. .
Abundant food should be given in
winter, as without' it very few eggs will'be obtained. Beefy poultry house ehould I
be furnished with boxes for the hens to
lay in, so arranged that. they cannot
roost-over them. Food and water should
be given with regularity, ands supply of
lime, gravel, crushed bones; and charcoal
should be rawer' available.
Corn and Hogs.—One bushel of corn
will make a little over 10} pounds of pork
•

AORICUINCIIIAL ITEM.
From a farm in Western New York
there is annually Bold ;2,000 worth of
butter. The farm contains 172 acres.
Thirty cows are kept.
It is estimated that 20,000.000 bushels
of wheat, 0,500,000 of corn, 12,000,000 of
oats, and 2,000,000 of potatoes were pro.
duced, last year, in Minnesota.
Bootie ono of the most valuable mac
noire, and nothing but the most culpable
carelessness and indifference will suffer It
to remain a standing menace to life and
property when it can. be easily removed
from chimneys, stovepipes, &c., and
turned to useful account in the garden or
Held. Twelve quarts of soot In & hogs
head of water, will make the most vain.
able liquid manure, which will Improve
the growth of root crops, 'garden vegeta
bla, flowers.
The agricultural statistics of Great
Britain for 1669 Mow 3,693,635 acres in
wheat; 2,250,177 In barley; an increase of
42,906 acres in the &stand of over 100,000
acres in the hut crop over 1868. The in
crease in the average in potatoes Was 63
per cent. The number of cattle has de
creased, as hu the number of sheep and
pigs, to a remittable degree.
- Skillful fattener' aro far less common
than good grain grower& Recent experi
ences have proved. that animals cannot
take on flesh rapidly, unless the tempera.
lure is nearly uniform, and between fifty
and sixty degrees.
Dr. Voelcker says: "Placed In a heap
with ashes or sand, occasionally moisten•
ed with liquid manure or water, bone
enters Into putrefaction, and becomes a
more soluble and energetic manure than
ordinary bone dust."
A correspondent of the Germantown
Teregraph says: "Some years ago I had
a shade tree which split at the fork. I
took an inch and a half augur, bored a
hole ththugh, put a well seasoned wood;
en Plug through, wedged each end, and
It grew on and the crack opened no far

if Samaria goes through easily. If the
