This cooling should be done in pure air, by imâ€" mersing the can in cold spring or ice water, and then stirring the milk, or by running the milk in a thin film over some metallic surface, as in the patented coolers, which All milk vessels must be kept scrupulousâ€" ly cleap, They should first be rinsed in cold water, then washed in tepid water, next thoroughly scalded or steamed, and then inverted und exposed to sun and air until next needed. ‘They should not be rinsed in cold water before using, for this water may not be pure, and some of it remaining in the vessel may contaminate the milk. The seriousdifficulty of keeping clean the milk cans used in shipping milk to our large cities might be largely overâ€" come if the city dealers would cleanse them before returning them to the farmers. In hot weather, these cans often come to the farmer, after an ibsence of a week or more, with all the seams cased with foul and putrid milk, and in such a condition that it is almost impossible to make them pure and wholesome, If, however, the city dealers would scald or steam the cans out on emptying the milk, this whole difficulty would be oversome. Soap is unâ€" desirable about dairy utensils, because if a trace of it is left on the vessel, it may injure the taste of the milk. Soda aod lye may be used, and are preferable to soap, but each must be thoroughly rinsed off before the vessol is again used. . Water, rightly used, is better than soy chemicals for cleansing purposes in the dairy. S T ind ininie dn 100 Coo e en nriie Wooden vessels are not to be used at all, because difficult to keep clean, . Tin is the best material for buckets, puos, etc., because it is so readily cleansed; but when the milk is to stand a long time stoneware or glass vessels are preferable and should be employed for family use. Tin vessels should have as few seams as possible, as these hold dirt. Vessels for containing milk ought to be as free from crevices as possible, and from places diff.cult to clean, The milk cans used for shipping milk to cities should have large mouths,. . To facilâ€" itate cleansing, the mouth of the can should be of nearly the same diameter as the body of the can, â€" The milk house should not do service as wash house or laundry. No barnyard, pig pens, or privies or other outdoor buildings containing any filth whatever should be located near the milk house. The milk house should be on some elevation sufficient to secure complete and quick drainage, No milk house bas ever been kept too clean. Spring houses located on low and swampy grounds, liable to overflow in case of high water, will need special care. Atter every such overflow the walls will need to be scrubbed and whitewashed, and the whole premises most thoroughly cleansed and reâ€" novated. or brick, for this material contains no crevices in which milk can accumulate to decay and make foul the whole building. The milk house shon‘d be kept scrupuâ€" lously clean, inside and out. Soap and whitewash must be daily used, and the air maintained perfectly pure. The windows should be protected by wire gauze to keep out flres and emall animals. There should be means to ventilate in cold weather. It should be abundantly supplied with pure water and ice. There should also be convenient means for heating water, as boiling hot water is needed in large quantities, .

Tne milkers‘ hands should be carefully washed before milking, and, if they become eoiled,after milking each cow. The milking should be done with dry hands ; milking with wet hands is too filthy to be tolerated. Cows should always be milked entirely clean, as the "‘stripplings" are the richest portion of the milk. No milker sutfering from any contagious disease, and, if possible, no one constantly about a person suffering from a contagious disease, should be admitted to the statles, When scarlet fever, typhoid fever, dipnâ€" theria or dysentery prevail in any family which manages a dairy, extraordinary care should be taken, because it is now well known that the germs of these diseases are readily absorbed by milk, and may be transmitted by those who use the same. (On this point too much care cannot be‘ taken, mended because it is casier handied than a eloth, but the dairyman must remember that it will be liable to become very foul in the interior, and bence it will need to be scalded every day along with the other dairy utensils, A filthy sponge used to wash the udder would do much more harm than good.

The ruins are the remains of the old Prince of Wales fort, erected in the middle of the last century by the Hudson‘s Bay Company. It took forty years to build the fort, and the wall was constructed of heavy blocks of dressed granite, prepared by workmen brought from Englard for the purpose. On each of its four sides the walls were 300 feet long and 20 feet hifib. At the base thoy â€" werethirty feet thick,â€"taperi twenty feet at the suramit.

The latter was eager to be goune, and declared that if the King made him a sorcerer, in return he would, in that character, transâ€" form the King into a gorilla. taken, to the King‘s house, and mentally reeolved to be careful at his next meal. The supper, at which the King was not present, was served in the European style and with European dishes, save for a large roust which the priest recognized and sent away. His mind was now made up to get away f: om Brass as scon as possible with the boy Nathaniel. The King was not to be seen, so the priest sent word of his wirhes. The King answered that the boy must remain at Brass. The division of the plunder followed, acâ€" companied with quarrels and a sort of savage frensy. The madness of gin and palm brandy was added to that of slaughter and the scene was so hideous that the Father refuses to describe it. He notes that several parts of the human body were brought to him and he was courteously asked to take his choice. _ His refusal was evidently not understood. Later, in looking from his window, the Father saw Then began a scene of savage rejoicing and cannibalism. The bodies were cut in pieces, the children being stationed round that they might be inured to thesight, and whole limbs were carried off to be cooked and eaten. One young negro who, the Father declares, had been educated at a mission, taking in one hand the sabre of Mr. Flint, General Agent of the Royal NigerCompany, and in the other a limb of one of the victims, danced in savage joy about the company‘s flag, with a crowd of onlookers applauding. in token of triumph. Other canoes rapidly arrived, bringing more booty, and many of the warriors wore white breech clouts in token of enemies mlain. By noon nearly a!l the canoes but the King‘s had returned. He and some of his warriors had stopped at an island szome miles from Brass and taken ashore six captive Kroumen negrocs of the slave coast, who had been employed at the company‘s agency and had come to hate the people of Brass, These six men were bebeaded on the island, and some hours later the King, with. a dozen of whiteâ€" clouted warriors, arrived in his canoe, and the six corpses in another. Other captives, still alive, were also brought home. The first returning canoe reached Brass at 6 o‘cleck next morning, and a quantity of booty was carried into the King‘s house. Then it was that the Fathers first learned that the attack had been upon the headâ€" quarters of the Royal Niger Company. Father Dubendorf represents that the English would have been destroyed but for a Freach naval officer, Lieut, Guigues,acciâ€" dentally at the headquarters, whose courage and udgrels delayed the attuck and gave some of the whites time to escape. . A young negro of the returned party leape1 I:ipon a cannon justafter it had been fired and displayed Nearly all the men of Brass went on the expedition. . An old chief was left behind in charge of the village, and the women were forbidden in the absence of their lords to enter the houses. No sooner were the warriors gone than the women fell to quatrelling among themselves over the possession of various houscho‘d utensile. They wailed over the departure of their gons to the battle and prophesied their return with wounds to their deaths in the fight. The quarrelling kept up until after nightfall, and then the women crept to bed wherever they could find shelter outside the houses. The benevolent old King of the night before was transformed into a savage of ferociouz aspect. Sixty canoes laden with arms were drawn up along the river bank, and the King was walking back and forth lelivering incoberent orders. At the sound of m cannon he hastily gave the Father his hand, bade him live us if the house in which he lodged was his own, assured him that orders had becn given for his comfortable entertainment, and went off, leaving the pricst to understand that the expedition about to start was to ‘ muke war upon & neighboring tribe. The Fother saw the King pause before an usâ€" semblage of idols near the river bank, sprinkle his warriors with a liquid and join in the war dance. _ l o 'iw; Early the next morning the Fath called on the King, but learned that } was too busy to be seen.

In the Journal de Paris of July 27, 1779, there was printed a full and interesting account of the invention by M. Blanchard, ! the aeronaut, and Magurier, of the velociâ€" pede. The bicycle, or twoâ€"wheeled velociâ€" pede, was the invention of Baron von Drais of Manheim on the Riein, under date of 1815. Then it was cailed ‘"the hobby horse." In 1816 the Baron patented his invention, both in London and Paris. * The present bicycle embodies the main idea of Baron von f')uil’ machine, but its improved form is due to the inventive genius of an unknown Frenchman, whose work was Erodueod in 1861. Eut even before the lanchard velocipede we find there is a notice of one run in the Place Louis XV., which carried two riders, one who moved it by striking the ground alternately with his feet, and another who guided it. This, it appears, was afterward exhibited before Louis XV. and his court, about a century ago. In 1808 one with & single rider and lower wheels was exhibited in the gardens of the Luxembourg.
