tho contrast was fearful ; naught was to

alongside, and the ominous answer, "we
have the yellow fever,'' was made to his
inquiries. Ho left the ship, and rowed

Gen. Cameron's Speech.
Just b.fore the vote was taken on the
English. Kansas bill, in the Senate of the
I'uited States, Senator Cameuon said :
.
Rcfore tho vote is taken I desire to say
a word or two in relation to my own
course It was my intention at an early
part of t.ie session to say something upou
tne general sutject 01 Kansas allairs, but f
I am, as you all know, not much of a
public speaker, having but little capacity
iu that way, aud no taste for it. 1 often
felt disposed to take part in the debate ;
but when I proposed to do so, 1 deferred
to others ; and sometimes when I felt
like going on, I found that some gentle
man was ili;eussing the question better
than I could hope to de. I rise at this
time ouly to say that I disapprove of the
proposition uow before the Senate, much
more than I did of the origiual attempt to
j force on the people of Kansas a Cuiislitu-

FEEDING CALVES.
A calf should never be changed sudden
ly from all milk to all grass, but it should
be Lrevtht about gradually; otherwise
the growth may be injuriously affected.
Ihe food with which they are fed has
powerful influe nce on milking properties
tf all cows; au 1 the mode iu which thy
are reared has considerable effect on their
capacity to give milk. Iu milk we Lava
all that is necessary fer the growth of the
young animal, and it is the type and rep
resentative of all food ; for, unless an ali
ment contains the principles of milk, it
not fitted for the romotion of the health
and perfect development of thf body.
It is a bad thing to feed calves ooskim
