In a clear, forcible manner he spoke on questions concerning tlio state ot tuc country, tho duty of Dem ocrats to stand by tho Government as they always have done, and maintain their organization. Ho was constantly cheered and applauded, and his speech cave uu- bounded satisfaction to tho immense gath ering. A. J. Dcitnclc, Esq., of Lycoming county, was next called up. Ho discussed tho issues of tho day, exposing the sophis tries of the Republicans, in a speech of groat power, amid continuous applauso. Col. Lovi L.

The proceedings ofthe Republican Con vention, under tho false head of " Union Convention," appear in another column to-day. This affair was gotten up by a few hungry Republicans and offieo seekers, as iho proceedings show from beginning to end, and it will bo looked upon by the massos as ono among the many dishono rable tricks of tho Republican party, This Republican Convention nominated William A, Mason, formerly a Democrat and William Colloy for Associate Judges; John M.

Human nature could'ut stand that, and I gave her as good as she sent. It was the first timo that I ever got a taste, and it was power ful good. I believe 1 could havo kissed that gal from Julias Caaar to tho '1th of July. 'Jack,' said she, 'ire arc sorry to dis turb you, but won't you sco mo homo!' Yes, said I, will,' I did do it and had an other smack at tho gate, too. After that wo took a kinder ttutlo-doving after each other, both of us sighing like a barrel of new cider when we were away from each other. 'Twas at tho closo of a glorious summer day tho sun was setting behind a distant hogpen the chickens were going to roost ; tho bullfrogs were commencing to sing their evening songs j the pollywogs in their native mudpuddles were preparing tor tho shades of night, and Sal and my self sat upon an antiquated backlogdistcn ing to the music of nature, such as tree toads, roosters and grunting pigs, and now and then tho mellow music of a distant jackass was wafted to our cars by the gen tle zephyrs that sighed among tho mulieu stalks, and camo ladon with the delicious odcr of hen roosts and pig styes : the last lingering rays of tho sotting sun glancing from the brass buttons of a solitary horse man shown through a knot hole in the hog- pen, full in Sal's face, dying hor hair with an orange peel hue, and showing off my tliread-baro coat to bad advantage ; one of my arms was around Sal's waist, hand on the small of her back. Sho was toying with my auburn locks of jet black hue ; sho was almost gone and I was ditto. She looked like a grass hopper dying with the bickups, and I felt like a mud turtle choked with a cod fub, ball.

Messrs Editors : I cheerfully oora. ply with your request in giving such in- 1 formation in rolation to paokinc; and keep.

In tho first placo you ask in regard to tho churning : wo uso dog power, hav- ing tho tcmperaturo in warm woather about 55 degrees Fab, which givos tho butter a good solid cocsistoney. 2. When tho butter comes, it is remov ed and washed with cold ico water until the butormilk is all removed. 3. It is then salted, about ono ounce of salt to a pound of butter, worked in thor oughly, and set in a cool placo for twenty four hours, when it ia worked, jusl sufficient to remove all the buttermilk. 1. It is then packed in tho firkin, and covered tight so as to exclude the air. 5. When tho firkin is filled, then put a cloth over tho butter, put on a good cover ing of salt, and then pour on water, which makes a brine. Wo keep it thus covered, until it goes to market, it being tho only way we could ever keep a dairy perfectly sweet through the season. These rules strictly observed, I will war rant never to fail, if tho butter is properly made. We uso good whito oak firkins.

An aged farmer of Pennsylvania, iu a letter to tho American Agriculturist, says : "After nearly fifty years of experienco and observation, among my neighbors and elsewhere, I am convinced that too littlo grass seed is sown. Here I sco a field with only half plants cnongh growing; would not a double quantity of seed havo filled up tho gaps 7 The cost of the seed was GO cents per aero. Another 00 cents worth of seed would have made this year's mowing and pastnrago worth 612 an acre, while it is now only wotth SO, 1 never saw grass too thick ; but I havo seen it too thin on hundreds of fields. Formerly I sowed 4 quarts of clover seed and 8 q!s of timothy seod to the acre; now 1 neve sow less than 8 or 10 quarts ofclover, nrt1 14 to 18 quarts of timothy, nj.il d ing this I havo had no failure, but scat. any a neavv mat oi nn grass."
