Farmers should raise euouirb of the best calves, or calves from their best cows, to keep their stock fully up. Endeavor to get good strains of blood iuto the herd by using a thor oughbred bull. Never use a half or quarter-blood bull if it is possible to obtain a full-blood. A cow before calving should le placed in a warm, dry box stall for the comfort of the cow and the safety of the calf. The practice of allowing a 'uw ta bare a calf while confined in the stan chions cacuot be too strongly depre catcd. Even 11 it is not desirable to raise the calf, it is an unnecessary cruelty to keep the cow cou fined. The practice is doubly unnecessary and cruel when the calf is to be rais ed. If the calf comes early in the night, it is apt to lie prostrate ia wa ter and Glib until morning, w hen it is chiiled through, and no matter bow fine a calf it might have been, it is a mercy to kill it. Therefore, presum ing the cow is in a comfortable and convenient place, as soon as possible after the calf comes it should be rubbed perfectly dry. Too many pre cautions cacnot be taken to prevent the calf from becoming chilled, and it is more apt to become chilled while wet. 1 he calf should be fed, as 6oon as possible after birth, milk freshly drawn from its mother, and should bave the whole of its mother's milk for at least a week or ten days before it receives any tkirumcd milk. The change from new to skimmed milk should be gradual. Begin by mixing a little skimmed milk with tbe cew milk. Feed regularly three times a day all tbe calf will take. Keep in .clean, dry pen, well Jittered with plenty of clean straw to insure clean liness and good health. Remember toai 11 you slight the calf now, when j u uecomes a cow it will slight you.

After the ceremony was per formed at the church a feast was usu ally provided at the residence of the parents of tbe bride, at which the fe licity existing between the newly wedded pair was manifested by par takifig cf food from the same dish. During tbe banojet be said it was customary for some potions to ex claim "sour" in the Russian iiQgyae, at which exclamation the biidegrootu would drop bis knife and fork, uud throwing bis arms around hU wife, would salute ber with hearty kis.-es. The frequency with which this cere moojT waa repealed often sadiy in terfered will their supper. The speaker next narrated Lli experience while journeying on boric-back through Kamtsehatka in autumn. The scenery at that season, be said, was delightfully picturesque. Tbe deep gorges intervening betweeu tbe snow capped mouutaius, the glowing tints of the foliage of decaying vegetation, were all better calculated to remind the traveler cf Calitorijia than cf that frozen country. The tempera ture for a short lime at that season, be said, was mild and genial. Short ly after tLe beginning of the mouth of October, however, the mild weath er grew cold very rapialy, and in creased in severity at the end of the year. I here were ia Ivamtscbaika a large number of colonists from Central Asia who bad become thor oughly ideuliGed with the Russian population, having adopted not only tbe dress and manners of the natives of that country, but also the lan guage and religion. They were hon est, truthful and hospitable to stran gers, and subsibted chiefly ou the products of sable-trapping and fish ing. At one time tue little party were reduced to the lowe.-t extremi ty, all their provision ha 1 been 00:1 sumed and they were compelled for two days to subsist upoa a piece of! bulbber, originally intended for the! purpose of oiling their u:is.

A lriend residiugiu Drtroit informs me that last year there was an ex tensile fi nk of these bird.1 in Ben zine c unity, Michigan. It was esti mated that it occupied a space of four .-(piare miles iu which area every tree was thronged with the birds.

The pigeon almost aU-ays selects a grove of these trees when it intends to make a halt for refreshments, cs it is particularly fond of the beech nut, on which it rapidly fattens if not constantly dis turbed by the horde of gunners who usually "invade the pigeon roosts. Many men mukc shooting and catch ing pigeons a badness, and are sup plied with all the paraphernalia nec essary to take the birds in large numbers. Being acquainted with the habits of the birds, they follow the fl ick as it changes its locatioD.

Tbe act, by its enacting clause, is made to take etTect from and after its passage. Now, the Supreme Court of tbe United Stales bas decided that when a statute is to take effect from its passage, the day on w hich the act is approved is to be included; and fur ther, there being no fraction of a day, it bas been decided that the act relates to tbe first moment of tbe day on which it is approved, and as if it vere then approved. Such being tbe decision of the courts, I was not at liberty to give any other construc tion lo tbe law, and consequently hold, and have so instructed tbe col lectors of internal revenue, that all tobacco, cigars and cigarettes siamp en.J sold and removed cn tbe 3d day of .March, with the stamps thereto fore iu use, were insufficiently stamp ed, and that tobacco, cigars and ci garettes so stamped could not bo re garded as entitled to the exemption provided in the first proviso to the second section f tho 6aid act of March 3d,-viz: "That the increase of tax herein provided for shall not ap ply to tobacco on which ihe tax un der existing law shall bave been paid when this act takes effect." In otber words, that tbe law in question took effect from the first moment of March 3d, and consequently it is held, aud so Special loG means, that all tooac- .11 cu, cigars ana cigarettes som or ic- moved on tbe 3d day of March, as w ell as tbose sold and removed sub seouently, nitis. be taxed at the new rates, and that wlen stamps of the old issue bave been aflixed since pud night of the 2d day of March, eea if tbe goods bavo been sold aud de livered, they must be reported lo tbe Collector, in order that the additional tax may be assessed. Were it a matter of mere policy, or a matter depend ing entirely up'on piy own volition, I might be strongly inclined to r-l'CVe tbe manufacturers from tho cmbr rassments in which they have'placed themselves in tbeir efforts to antici pate tbe last moment wheu they could put their goods on the market under the old rates, kuowingas they all did that a n?r tax bill was pending, which might, at any moment, become a law, and which must, in any eyut, receive the President's signature and become a law on tbe 2d day of March at tbe farthest, if it wls to receive bis upproval at all, tbe 3d day of March, 1S75, being the last day of tLe existence of the Forty-third Con gress. I do not, however, iu this matter feel myself at liberty to give a construction Jo u nice question of law, different froiii tiat which tho Courti baye given, of to rejierp the trade from auv liabilities which the 1 law bas imposed upon tbeiii. V ery respectfully, J. W. Doi olass, Com. Aljoot fTrttdingn. A wedding must not bo uiictie-.i- ful; but it must certainly be sob emn to all who realize what it is. On ihe one side it is renouncing old lies, promising to begin with faith, aud hope, and love, a new and whol ly untried existence. On the other, it ; the acceptance of a sacred trust. the covenant to order life anew in such ways as shall make the happi ness of two instead 'of one. Can such an occasion be befitting for rev elry ? Is it not wiser, more delicate, to bid only the nearest friends to the ceremony, and leave the feastinjand robe for auotber time 7 e are suro there are few girls who, if tbey to fleet ou the seriousness of the step they are about totuke, will not choose to make their loving vow inerelv within the living limits of ibiir hone circle. All ur best instincts point to thp absolute simplicity am! privacy of wedding services ; only a p.-rver-siou of delicacy could contemplaie the asking of crowds of half tempo. ihctL- or w holly curious people to at tend the must solemn of contracts. Let there bo as much party making, rejoicing hUd pleasure afierwards us hearts desire ; but let ihe solemn vows 1m? made in the presence only ot Hi lose lieu re in' i.enrest.
