An English correspondent of the N. Y.
Tribune, expatiates on the prospective intro
duction or steam power as an aid in agriculv
lural operations as follows :■—“The Farmer’s/
Future will be found in the application q/|
steam to the cultivation of the soil! We- (
are rapidly coming to the conclusion herot
that the good old plow is n.ftumbug.—We
begin to think that spade-husbandry applied
by steam is the right thing; indeed,-there
are some among us of the opinion that a ma,-
chine may be invented which wou'd iu effect,
plow, sow, harrow and roll' altogether—a
machine in fact which should tjmbe a seed
bed and sow the seed all at- one operation.
There has already been one steam engine
exhibited in this country which will walk any
where and do anything that it is required to
do. It has feet about the size of yours, sir,
and it puts them down upon the ground, one
alter the other, very much in the fashion of
a dandy going up Broadway, only the feel of
the maciiine are fixed on wheels, and revolve
regularly, instead of moving up and down
awkwardly like his. This machine will go
through a ploughed field very comfortably,
and rather quicker than a good hunter will
get over it; and as it will drag a dozen plows
after it, I do not see, for my part, w|)y it
should not be made to carry, as part and par
cel of itself, a mechanism that will readily
convert the umilled ground into a seed-bed.
Well then, as to drainage. I saw a mach : ne,
the other day, that would dig, drain and lay
down sixteen and a half feet of piping per
minute; the pipes being rather more regular
ly and satisfactorily laid than any skilled
workman can lay them. The machine la
bored under the disadvantage of being cum
brous, and of being made to be worked by a
stationary engine. But having got thus far,
it seems to be only one step further to give
us steam application to the soil, so as to ena
ble twenty limes the quantity of land to be
put under cultivation by the same amount of
labor, and at no greater cost than now.
Then we may hope for a produce of cheap
corn, the great desideratum in this land of
sweat and toil, where it depends upon a shil
ling or two, more or less, in the price of'ood,
not only whether a man can reap the advan
tages of his labor, but absolutely 100 often
whether he can continue to exist.”
Eacts about Milk.— Cream can not raise
through a great depth of milk. If milk Is
declined to retain its cream for a lime, it
should be put into a deep, narrow dish ; and
if it is desired to free it most completely of
cream, it should he poured into a broad flat
dish, not exceeding one inch in depth. The
evolution of cteam is facilitated by a rise, and
retarded by. a depression of temperature of
the dairy, 50 degrees it will perhaps rise in
half that time, and when the milk is kept
near the f eezing point, the cream will ise
verv alowtv, because il becomes solidified.
In wet and cold weather the milk is less rich
than in dry and warm, and on this account
more cheese is ohiomed in cold than in warm,
though not in .hunderv weather. The sea
son has us effects. The milk, in spring, is
supposed to bo the best drinking, hence il
would be best for cdves; in summer it is
best suited for cheese; and in autumn the
bui,er keeping is baiter than that of summer
—the cows less frequently milked, give rich*
er milk and consequently more butter. Tbe
morning's milk is tidier than the evening’s.
The last drawn milk of each milking, is at
all limes and seasons, richer than the first
drawn, which is the poorest.
Plain Talk. —The Western editors, are
certainly very free speaking individuals, and
their rhetoric, like the bowie knives of some
of them, is sharp and to the point. One of
them, speaking of low-necked dresses and
short sleeves, says:
The prevailing fashion omong (he ladies,
which transposes an angel into a model artist,
is universally detested by every gen.leman
whose good opinion a lady should desire. It
blunts the liner feelings of both sexes, and is
a disadvantage to the other. A round, plump,
white arm is beautiful, and may be admired
with all propriety ,- but an arm shaped like a
three-cornered file, with red elbows, is not
beautiful, and in competition wiih a Spanish
garrole would stand no chance of being elect
ed to one's neck. A while, round neck, with
an alabaster base half concealed by a coquet
ish collar, is the most bewitching sight in the
world; but a large expanse of bony shoul
ders. painted like a patent ham, with its con
tiguous unprotected territory, has about as
many attractions as a newly painted Winsdor
chair.
How to Get to Sleep.— How to get to
sleep is, to many persons, a matter of high
importance. Nervous persons, who are often
troubled with wakefqlneas and excitability,
usually have a strong tendency of blood to
the brain, with cold extremities- The pres
sure of blood on the brain, keeps it in a stim
ulated or wakeful state, and ihe pulsations in
the head are often painful. Let such rise and
chafe the body and extremities with the hands,
to promote circulation, and withdraw the ex
cessive amount of blood from (he brain, and
they will fall asleep in a few moments. A
cold bath, or sponge bath, and rubbing, or a
good run, or rapid walk in the open air, or
going up and down stairs a few limes, just
before retiring, will aid in equalizing circula
tion and promoting sleep. These rales are
simple, and easy of application in castle or
cabin, and may minister to the comfort of
thousands who would freely expend money
jbr an anodyne to promote “Nature’s sweet
restorer, balmy sleep.”
Mr. Andrew Crosse, the enthusiastic
and somewhat eccentric amateur of science—
whose experiments in electricity aod his fan
cied creation of insects some years ago made
astir among the credulous and incredulous—
died the other day at his residence near
Bridgwater, having passed the threescore
years and ten allotted to man.
' Kind words are (he brightest flowers of
earth’s existence; they make a very paradise
oCthe humblest home the world can show.
Use them, and especially round the fireside
circle. They are jewels beyond price, and
note precious to heal the wounded heart apd
make the weighed.down spirit glad, than all
othei blessings the earth can give.

Tonno Mus AnEßidA,a baby yet of five
years, sat playing with her doll, while her
clerical father with a dull razor lore.at his
beard.
"Pa,” ashed the innocent, "do dolls go to
heaven when they get all smashed to pieces?”
"No, dear; dolls have’t souls,” answered
the father.
“Well, then I doan’t want to die.”
“Why not?”
“Why,” answered she, “I s’pose I should
heveto go to; heaven if 1 died, and 1 ffoq’t
want to go any where they don’t have dolls.”
It would have been belter to let.dolls in.
Id Illinois they do not allow white and
block persons to intermarry. The Rock is
land Republican says that a negro/ having
obtained a license to marry a lady “three
quarters black,” a magistrate refused to
perform the ceremony, as the woman was
100 while. So the negro is hunting up testi
mony to prove the woman “three quarters
black I”
The Soap Plant.—The Vienna journals
announce that a firm of California has sent
home Co that city some seeds of the soap
plant. Il grows wild in California, rising to
the height of about a foot. The plant fades
away in 'he month of May, and inside of
each is a ball of natural soap, superior, it is
asserted, to any that can be manufactured.
American Bullets in England.—The
English papers say that Mr. J. W. Cochra n
of this city, has received a large older from
the British Government for the manufacture
of a great number of spiral bullets, which
they intend to piesent to the Russians in the
Spring.
