Acricnltnral Aote. Gypsum is a valuable fertilizer and deodorizer too little known and too sparingly . used. For use ia the stable and poultry yard it is invaluable. It is a complete absorbent of amonia a most valuable element in all fertilizers. The average period of gestation for a mare is 33(i days; cow, 2S0 days; ewe.1-15 days; goat, 153 days; sow, 112 day9; slut, 60 days; rabbit, 30 days. Incubation Goose, 3l days; turky, 27 days; peafowl, 2S days: duck, L'S days: chicken, 21 days: pigeon, 17 day3; canary, 13 days. The moist climate of England favors the trrowth of potatoes; 500 hundred bushel to xhe acre is spoken of as uncommon yield. Here it would be almost unheard of, the average in New England not much exceeding ICO bushels, and 300 bushels is a very heavy crop for our country. Don't place too many ejrgs under the setting hena at this seasou of the year. Nine or eleven, according to the sis ot the ben, will give a better turn out than more. Dace three inches of fine dirt m your box or barrel nest with some soft line fcay, and Biddy will attend to details. In England forty bushels of wheat per acre is not an unusual yield, and fifty and sixty bushels per acre is often realized ss the result of high farming. Nevertheless, England is obliged to import cacli year about 100,000,000 bushels in addition to her own crop to feed her people. Gentle treatment and rapid and close milking will tend to the greatest develop ruent o the miikin cows, while the contrary practices will have the tiled of materially reducing tec quantity. Above all, do not expect full returns without furnishing an abundance of the best feed. Until quite recently fall wheat has always been preferred for grinding into flour for bread. It grows the slowest and is longest on the ground, and the proportion of gluten is much preater than iu wheat sow a in the spring. It is altogether preferable in southern climates, aud the Hour from it brings a much higher price, while it is said to keep sweet and free from weey il much the longest. The "purfect diary cow" is a prolifice theme just now, and, as usual, authorities differ as to what qualities such a cow should possess. A writer in the Country Gentleman combats the idea of combining "milk and beef in a dairy animal. He says the "'beef" (Uality is of no use during the miiking life of an animal, and when she gets so old as to be ct little value for milk, she is of no value for beef. "Beef," he says, "at the end of the milking period is the only advantage in this case, for when the animal is raised for beef alone the dairy element looses its force, not being required." He advises the union of the qualiries of the Ayrshire and Jerry. Bonseboltl Mailer.". Crusts and piece3 of bread should be kept in an earthen jar, c'.osely covered, In a dry, cool place. Lard for pastry should be used as hard as it can be cat with a knife. It-should be cut through the Hour, not rubbed. Those who are troubled with sore throats may keep them well by bathing thoroughly with cold water just before retiring. In boiling meat for a soup, use cold water to extract the juices. If the meat is wanted for itself alone, plunge into boiling water at once. To prevent meat from scorching during roasting, place a basin ot water in the oven ; the steam eenerated prevents scorching and makes the meat cook better. A specific for hooping cough is a strong tea made of chestnut leaves and sweetened to taste. From a tablespoonful to a half a wineglassful should be taken three or four times a day. Broil steak without salting. Salt draws the juices in cooking; it is desirable to keep these in, if possible. Cook over a hot fire, turn frequently, searing on both sides. Place oa a platter, salt and pepper to taste. Housekeepers should know that a small piece of paper or linen, moistened with spirits of turpentine, and put into a chest or drawers or wardrobe for a single day two or three times a year, is a preservative against moths. Beef that has a tendency to be tough can be made very palatable by stewing very gently tor two hours with pepper and salt, taking out about a pint of the liquor when half done, and letting the rest boil into tbe meat. Brown the meat in the pot. After taking up, make a gravy of the pint of liquor saved. There is scarely an ache to which children are subject, to bad to bear and difficult to cure, as the earache. Bat there is a remedy, never known to fail. Take a bit of cotton batting, put upon it a pinch of black pepper, gather it up aud tie it. dip it in sweet oil, and insert it into the ear. Put a flannel bandage over tbe head to keep it warm. It will give immediate relief. USEFUL RECIPES. Mrrros Cnop3. Sprinkle with vinegar, pepper and salt: dip them in egg, sprinkle with cracker or bread crumbs, and fry. Christmas Cookies Four and a half cups 8.1 gar, one and a half butter, one of thick cream, tea -poon soda, two eggs; flavor with orange or lejion extract. Powdered sugar, and a raisin in the center, make them nicer, and please the little folks. Irish Stkw. Put a layer of potatoes peeled and cut in halves in bottom of pot or pan, then two or three mutton chops and some sliced onions, then potatoes with another layer of chops and onions, add a pint of soup stock and two teaspoons catsup or chili sauce, cover close and stew one and one half hours. Arr-LE Ci'TAED. Take two good sized apples, stew them and sweeten; grate in the rind of one lemon, and stir together with the yolk of an egg. Put paste in the bottom of dish, fill, and bake till done. Then take the white of the egg and beat it up with sugar ; put on top, and put back in oven a few minutes. Potato Croqcetts. Take six boiUd potatoes, pass them through a sieve, add three tablespoons of graced or finly minced ham, season with pepper and salt and chopped parsley; work into this mixture tbe yolks of three or four eggs; make wi h the hands into balls; roll iDto bread crumbs, fry in hot lard, and serve with fried parsley. Poor Man's Fruit Cake. One and a half cups brown sugar, one of butter, one of raisins, half cup black or raspberry jam, three eggs, three tablespoons sour milk, half teaspoon coda; flavoring to taste; one teaspoon thick sour cream, about three cups Hour, and spices, if one chooses. I have tried it and find it excellent, and better the longer it is kept. Mrs-B. F. Benedict,Geneva,Neb. "YVateb ErstHti for Bread. Take a quart pitcher and a spoon, scald them; fill the pitcher half full of boiling water; cool to the temperature of good hot dish water; stir in flour to make a batter aa thick as flour pancakes: and a quarter teasponful of salt and as much soda, cover closely, aet where It will keep quite warm, stirring occasionally; it will raise in five or six hours. .Some prefer it to hop or brewers' yeaat. Coddled Apples. Take pleasant sour apples and put them in an earthen or tin dish and put in water enough to half eover them, and set them on tbe top of the stove, covering to keep in tbe steam. When the apples axe done soft take them out, and let the water boil away until there are but a few t$MilLi, i-ea four over the apples, for

meat they are an excellent accompaniment, and need no sweetening. But they make a most delicious dessert to sprinkle over them sugar while cooking, letting tbe syrup boil away as before. Farm Accounts. When a farmer, at the end of the year, settles his store account, pays his smith bill, with that of his teacher, doctor, and preacher, which tax ia generally in tbe rear, and, if anything is left from the amount realized by the sale of produce, that amount iscalled the profit; but if it falls abort, then he has made nothing. This is not a correct estimate of results, for the bills have no connection with the cost of planting, except the smith bills. A merchant doing business on a capital of $10,0000, wanting to obtain tbe rc3ult of the year's operation, taks an inventory of tbe unsold stock, the amount of available accounts, with money on hand after paying his store rent, his clerk hire, interest paid on borrowed money, and other expenses incidental to his business, but does not include the expense of supporting his family, which might, if extravagant, abeorb all the profits, though it might be 30 or 40 per cent, on the capita). . There are a large number of farmers whose real estate, with all the working stock and farming implements, can not be valued at more than $3,000: vet. bv their profits realized, have

raised, clothed, and educated from rive to ten children, which to do this, must make a profit of ;;0 to 50 per cent, on the capital. Can This Be Trni? "Iowa," in Prairie Farmer. Now come tbe Michigan millers and tell us that a barrel, weighing ltiii pounds, of the starchy spring wheat Hour of Minnesota and the North will make 270 to 280 pounds of bread, while the winter wheat flour of Michigan will not make more than 240 pounds. Is this credible? If so, is tbe bread from both equally nutritious and "filling" as iood? We should like to know what the experienced and able managers of the Prairie Farmer ssy to this, which is certainly news to most of us. Can this bs true? If so, it ought to be more generally known, It is quite probable that Micbigrn winter wheat flour makes less bread than Southern Illinois winter wheat (lour when the climate is drier. While this is a novel way of testing flour, it is certainly a correct one. These millers state that flour made from choice Lancaster wheat yielded .".31 pounds of bread. Flour made from Wabash River wheat yielded 30SJ4 pounds of bread for "straight," and 310,' pounds for "patent" process. Hnanre the Orchard. The orchard is the only part of the farm that is expected to yield 'two crops, and so long as the practice prevails of taking off a crop of hay or grain in addition to one of fruit, so long shall we have complaints of bitter rot and other evils. Not only should the land be given up to the trees, when of bearing age, but these should be manured, if not every year, at least every third year, not by putting a small heap next to the trunk, but by spreading a good dressing over the whole surface. If the season allows, this may be spread now and turned under by shallow plowing, if the ground is frozen, draw out the manure and leave it until spring. To Preserve Bntter. New York Tribune We add two teaspoonfula of powdered saltpetre and two tablespooafuis of gradulatad sugar to ten pounds of good, well worked butter, when we put it away in the fall to keep all winter. It will keep good and sweet without these additions so long as the weather remains cool, but it does not k3ep after it gets warm in tbe spring. We make it out in cakes all ready for the table and pack it away in stone pots, set them in a cool, dry place, cover tightly, but without brine or moiasses over it. CORTDOK. Great Excitement Over the Arrest or a Supposed Murderer. -Particulars of tbe A flair. Corypox, Ind., January 20 Our usually quiet and rural village has been thrown into great excitement by the arrest of John Shireman and his wife, upon affidavit filed by the brother of Mr. Windell, charging them with th murder, in September last, of Henry H. Windell, trie former husband of Mrs Shireman. The facts of this curious case are about these: Some time last September the communi ty in which Mr. Windell resided, which is some six miles south of Corydon, was startled by a report that Mr. W. bad hung himself to an apple tree in his orchard, and was found there by the family after his death. The coroner was summoned, a jury impanneled, and after a casual investigation of tbe facts, found a verdict to the, effect that the deceased had come to his death at his own hands, by hanging. Some of the neighbors who called at the bouse observed that the appearance of the corpse was not such as usually follows death by strangulation, and such fact was talked of in the neighborhood. It was also whispered about that improper relations had existed between Mrs. Windell and Sbireman.who was a young man living in Mr. W.'s family. Matters went on thus until some weeks ago, when Shireman aad Mrs. W. were married. This caused the former rumors and charges to be repeated, and was claimed to be a confirmation of the rumors as to the improper intimacy. It now began to be rumored that Windell has been foully dealt with by his wife and her alleired paramour. Shireman, and that be came to bis death at their hands, by poison administered by them, and that his being placed in the position in which he was repreeented to have been found, with a rope around his neck, fastened to the apple tree, was the work of these parties, done to conceal their crime. Upon these rumors, with such other facts and circumstances as could be gained, Mr. S.'s brother filed the affidavit which caused the arrest of the partes. The preliminary examination is set for Wednesday the 22 J. Great excitement prevails in tbe county over the unnatural and horrible crime, and a determination exists to probe the matter to tbe bottom, and if the parties are guilty meet out to them the punishment they so richly deserve. J ad ice Julian. Explains. To the Editor of the Sentinel: Sir Returning from Danville the other evening, where I had personally inquired into and learned the facta as to the alleged changes of venae from Judge Adams, I reported to yon the result, which was that there was very little iruth in it, and left with you for publication a statement as to the same and of the circumstances under which the information reached myself and you. For some reason it did not appear. The facts are these, and it is due to tba judge, as well as myself, that they become public; and I shall be glad to nave theia in serted in your paper: On Friday of the fir't week of tbe Hen riricfcs Circuit Court, Wm. A. McKenzie, Esq., who is regarded as a truthful gentleman, was in my office, and stated to my son and myself that ha had been in attendance upon tbe court, and that thirty-one changes of venue had been taken from Judge Adams on account of bias, eta He gave the details of some of them, and brought in a client, who was sworn to an additional affidavit of the same sort. I did not doubt for a moment the truth of what he said, and when a friend, soon after, called in. I mentioned it to him, and while ttlking, wrote down the facts in brief. Something waa said aa to the propriety of allowing tbe press to use them, and, with my permission, with. Ut yisw, be took the atoteuie&t away,

since which time I did not see it or hear from it until I saw the Sentinel's allusion to it. It is claimed by the Sentinel, and is true, I presume, (though I don't recollect it,) that I requested its publication. In my card to the Journal, which was designed aa a denial of having originated the story, I referred to it as having been told to me by an attorney of Hendricks County, in whom I had confided, and by whom I was misled. I did not desire to leave the impression that the Sentinel relied on him and not on me, but that he, having told it to me and others, was responsible for it. While I did not doubt tbe truth of Mr. McKenzie's statement, I repeat what I have said, that from a personal inquiry into the facta, among the attorneys of lanville, I have found them to be substantially untrue and unuist to Judge Adams.

GENERAL TELEGEAMS. Action of I he Virginia Learislntnro I'pon thrarptloa Mjr Jodjre Bivrs. Richmoso, Jan. IS. The Senate special com mittee and tbe House Committee on Federal Relations, acting jointly, to-day submitted a long report-and a series of resolutions In regard to the alleged usurpation of state rights by Judge Rives. The resolutions deslare that Virginia, in re-cutorlng the Union after the civil war, resumed ail her relations to the Government on perfect equality with the other States, and is entitled to the same rights n d powers; that the United States can no more rightfully iuterfere with and attempt toexecnte the powers and perform the functions of the States than the States can those of the United States, and any attempt by either to interfere with the rights of the others will be usurpation, and unconstitutional and void; that, therefore, all ucts of Congress, ami particularly those known as the civil rights bill and enforcement act, which attempt or profess to attempt to provide for the peiformanee by tne United States of duties ami obligations belonging to States, are unconstitutional and void: that, therefore, the action of thejadgcof the District Court of the. United States for tbe Western District of Virginia, iu assuming the jurisdiction of the cases of Lee Reynolds and Burwell Reynolds, parties charged with crime against the laws of this commonwealth nnd held ' to answer therefor an attempt to execute the laws of this commonwealth, and to regulate the internal policy iu the courts, and by officers of the United States, which Is unwarranted by the constitution, is destructive of tbe rights of the people of each State to protect life, liberty and property in iheir own way, by their own courts and officers, and ought at once to be remedied by proper Judicial action, and any recurrence of the same prevented by appropriate legislation; that proper provlston by law ought to be made forprompt and effective supervision by the Supreme Court of the United States of all proceedings of judges of inferior courts of the United Ststes; that the governor Is instructed to direct the attorney geneial to institute proceedings in the name of this commonwealth before the Supreme Court of the United States, and demand such protection and redress as that triounal can afford in tbe premises. Birlns Bed flood's Warriors to Bnnt tne Cneyennes. Fort Roiiinson, Neb., Jan. 18. A canfurence was held here this morning between Chief Red Cloud and Lieutenant Schuyler, of General Crook's staff, regarding the propriety of Lieutenant Dodd, of the Third Cavalry, going to Red Cloud's new location for the purpose of enlisting the services of some Sioux warriors, to be employed as scouts iu the expedition against the Brave Little bandof Cheyennes, now corralled at Crow Ridge, :S0 miles distant. Lieutenant Schyler asked Red Cloud if he thought Lieutenant Dodd could succeed in obtaining the services cl fifteen of his warriors. The old chief, in a very grave tone ot voice, and without raising his eyes from the ground, said: "My people are sad at heart since their brothers were killed here some moons ago. They are very angry with the whites, aud I am nearly certain will not assist them." Lieutenant Schyler, in as few words as iossible, gave him an account of the Cheyenne outbrenk; how the Cheyennes fired upon the soldiers iu fleeing, from their prison room, killing them, and In trying to punish the Cheyenne bucks the squaws were accidentally killed. Lieutenant Schuyler Dually got the old chief to say, "Young chief, Lieutenant Dodd, can go to my camp and tell my sn-in-law, Young-nian-afraid-of-liis-horse, that it is my wish lie would try and get some of my warriors to help the government in capturing the Cheyennes." Lieutenant Dodd, who is well known to the Ked Cloud braves, stnrtd immediately for Pine Ridge agency on his mission, with what success we will soon learn. It is believed that Captain Johnson's command joined Wessel's at the scene of hostilities some time durlmj the night of the 17th. There has been nothing heard from either commands since yesterday morning. Imortant news is expected liourly. Huleldo or John Fulmer. New Aliiany, Ind., Jan. 20.

There has been a fair amount of business transacted in this department of trade during the past week, and quotations here have undergone but few changes.
