Agricultural and Domestic.

The tliitftis Bretdg'V Cattle. |Kliiilb« Aitrrinm #Jt*Vo4m2.\ We cannot any what might have been the original type of many of.<mh dt*roe»tic animals, tor the inquiry wojjkl c*iry a* beyond any history or tradittwi regarding would doubt that all our varieties of tWdrtvfse', the ox, sheep, and fchs sprang originally,.from a iqngie type, and that the countless varieties are due to causes connected with their domestication. Of those reclaimed within the period of memory may be named the turkey. This was unknown to the inhabitants of the old con tinent until discovered here in a tfftd State. Since then, having been domesticated and widely disseminated, it uoiv offers varieties of wide departure from , the original type, and which having been nurtured into self sustaining breeds/ distingHtshed from ench otlrer by the |>ossessiuM of peculiar cliarayteristics. Among what are usufally reckoned the more active causes ot variation may I** named climate, food. mxilluduL .Auiitiala in cold climates are provided with a thicker covering of I^4- than in warmer om-s. Ind eed it is said that in someof the tropical provinces of South America there are cattle which have an extremely rare and fine fur in place of the ordinary pile of hair. Various other instances could be cited, if uecanary, going to show that a benificent Creator has implanted, in many animals, to a certain extent a. power of accommodation to the circumstances and conditions amid which they are reared. The supply of food, whether abundant or scanty, is one of the most active causes of variation known to be within the control -of man. For illustration of its effect let us suppose two pairs of twin calves, as nearly alike as possible, and let a male and female from each pair he suckled by their mothers until they wean themselves and be fed always after with the most nourshing food; and the others be fed with skimmed milk, hay tea, and gruel, at-first, to * tie put to grass at two months old, and subsequently fed on coarse innutritious sod der. Let these be bred from separately, and the same style of treatment kept up, and not many generations wcftild elapse l>efore we had distinct varieties or breeds, differing materially in size, temperament, nnd time of coming to maturity. Suppose other rindiwi* p»tts and one from each to be placed in the richest blue-grass pastures in Kentucky, or in the fertile valley of the Tees, always supplied with abundance of rich fijgjffe These live luxuriently, grow rapidly, increase in height, bulk, thickness,every Vfhy* they early reach the full wlikli thev are. canaldaf’iiL

uttaiuing; liaviug nothing to induce exertion, they b'Tome inactive, lazy,'lethargic andfift. Heiug bred from, the progeny resemble the parents, “only lnoye so." Each generation ac quiring more firmly and fixedly the characteristics induced by their situation, these become hereditary, nnd we, b} r and by, have a breed exhibiting somelvbat of the traits of the Teeswnter or Dui lvaiue, from which the improved shbrt-horns o^the present day have been reared. The others we will suppose to have been placed on the billaides of Naw. England, or on the barren isle of Jersey, or on t bp highlands of Scotland, or in the pastures of Devonshire. 'These Iteing obliged to roam longer for a scantier repast, grow slowly, develope their capabilities in regal'd to size not only more slowly, but, perhaps nos fulljK at all. They become morfe active in temperament and habit, t hinner and flatter in muscle. Their young cannot bo soon shift fojr themselyes, and require ittbre milk and the dams yield if. Each generation in it* turn aatire'follYaod completely adapted to the circumstances amid which they are reared: and, if bred indisa; « • ’ j W* -fi r -a* J _ U S KtP , Wr i V -4 WI V liit>ff 'iftlfipL'yp ‘ Gy Hfin

ed natives: or, if kept more 1 disfl6dtU(ra laite. Bvuicthing. approaching the Devon, the Av or the Jersey breeds. A due consideration of the* natural effect of climate nnd food is a j>oint worthy the special atteniiqnof the stock husbandman. ’ff'the breeds employed be well adapted to the situation, and the capacity of j the soil is sack as to feed them fully, profit may be. safely caU culated upon. Animals are to be looked upon ns machines fi>r converting herbage into money. Now, it costs a certain amount to keep up the motive |Kriver-of any machine, and also to- make goml the wear and tear incident to its working; and in the case of animals it is only so mtich as is digested, and assimilated in nddtfio)i to the amount thus required which is converted into meat, milk, or Avdofl; that the greater the proportion which the latter bhirß to the former, the greater will be the profit to be realized from keeping them. In many Section there exists a prefei-ence for cattle ot large size; and if they possess symmetry and all other good qualities commensurate with the size, and if plenty of nutritious food can be supplied, there.is an advantage gained by keeping such, for it costs less, other thmys heiny equal to shelter and caee for one animal than for two. Hut if the pastures and meadows are not of the richest, and we select such as reipiire, iu order to give the profit which they are capable of yielding, more or richer food than oitr farms can supply, or than we have tilt- means to purchase, we nr. st uecessarily".fail to reap as much profit as we might by the selection of such as could be easily fed upon home resources to the {mint of highest; profit. Whether the selection be of such as are either larger or smaller tlian suit our situation, they will, and equal in both cases, vary by degrees toward the fitting size or type for the locality in which they are kept; but there is tins noteworthy difference, that if thehugoyjfcnetdSf bgftught in, thSgJr will not only diminish,-but deteriorate, while, if smaller ,be brought in, they will enlarge and improve. The bestowal ot food sufficient both ill amount and quality to enable animals to develop alt the excellencies inherent in them, aud to obtain all the profiit to be'derived from them, is something very distinct In m undue forcing .or pampering. This process may produce wonderful animals to look at. but neither useful htic. profltable ones, and there is dariggr of thus producing a most uudesirble variation; for, as in plants, we find that forcing, pampering, high culture, or what ever else it may be called, may be carried so far as to reult in the production of double flowers, (an unnatural dev e lop *fsamnci with greater or less inability to perfect seed; so in animals the same process may be carried far enough to produce sterility.

It proved, again, in this event, as it bad proved in the event of. many past reverses, that it has vitality which no reverse c«n impair, and which, indeed, grows greater as the work it has to do increases in magnitude, booking - at its vitality, and at the nature of its work, aud at Ihetfiscurdal t ut d destructible elements of the party opposing It, nothing Is more cvrtaiu in tho future than its early return jto power.

Is the Beat Political, Literary and Family Newspaper iu the North-West! In Standing and Influence! Variety and Extent of its Correspondents! Freshness of ite Rows! Reliability of its Market Reports! Itls unsurpassed for Interest and Value. There is e* much talent, enterprise nod iu dustry now employed on Western Newspaper as in any part of the United Slates. The Tele graphic News from all r»r‘» of the World Is published simultaneously in Indianapolis,Cincinnati, Chicago, and tbe Eastern Cities, and is laid befors the readers of the Joi'snai. from OVETOTWtf BAYS EARLIER than it can reach them by papers published In other cities. The Daily Journal receives items of news from all parts of the world that are worth having, and the same is published* in the Weekly in a condensed form. It can not be necessary, at this day, to par ticuiarize tbe merits upoa.jvbich tbe Jqcknal rests its claims to a continuance and extension of the abundant patronage it has so long enjoyed. The patronage is itself the best evidence of its merits . A newspaper must be worth to a reader wbat be pays for it. or he will ndt have it. it is in no r#3pect different from any other article, it supplies a vtant, and is worth more or lesa as it supplies the want moie or less completely. If it is good, it uceds little other, solicitation of patronage than do good groceries oc diy goods. The Jorii.vAt. has Kept steadily in view tbe purpose. of making itself indispensable to its readerr, by turnlshing them the news in the most convenient form, and of the moat authentic character, andofthe greatest variety, ltbasmaintained a staff of Edltore of Acknowledged Ability mad Experience*. It baa systematically dispatched reporters to describe for its columns all occutrecces,political and otherwise, of general interest. It .>aa incurred very great expense in secu-lng spe--eial telegraphic dispatches. It has labored without counting cost or time to make Itseh as nearly as possible a Complete Ualty and Weekly Record •f the Alfuira of tbe Chantry. By these means it has given Its resders the full worth of their inouey. Its proprietors ask support fer it besause they ask no more than they are able to give a full and satisfactory equivalent for. They nak nothing on account of party preferences, or local advantages. A paper that begs the help of Its party because of its partisan obarastsr is upt to uave little > size to recommend it The Journal alms to ! secure patronage by being WORTH ITS THICK TO ANY MAN of any party, it is Republican in its Foliical Views, and Its conductors ses no reason to think that it will ever be anything eiac, but its columns will contain all gr the Departments usu -lly Included in first ctass newspapers, including POLITIC'AII.

What it has been 4t will continue, to be Improving by experience, by a more enlarged acquaintance with tho needs of the public, and by inorensed means of carrying out its designs. Besides the News, telegraphic and otherwise, it wiil contain a great deal of interesting and valuable matter of a miscellaneous kind, adapted to tho taites and desires of tbe family. Stories of a Superior Character, Sketches, Narratives and Humorous Extracts, will give variety and piquancy to the more solid matter, nud make it acceptable equally to the young and old. Tho people of Indiana, who are not subscribers to tbe daily edition of the Journal, should take the Wkkki.y Joi'hKAt, because while it equals any other weekly newspaper iq the country in other departments, it at the same time affords them the newrof their own State as no other newspaper does.
