Winter Butter Making.

A farmer’s wife thus gives, in the Rural New Fdrker, the result of twenty-two years’ experience: Commence to heat the milk when the cows are first given corn-fodder, which I manage in this way:-Strain the milk in tin pans, filling only half full —a little more or less will make no difference; then, as soon as convenient, set the pans of milk on stove, where let then\ remain until a roughness or wrinkled appearance on the top of the milk is noticed (if Ihe milk gets too hot the only harm will be less cream,) then take it in the milk room or cellar, into a cool' place until next morning, when bring it up in a warm room and let it stand until the next day, whenitTs geheratryread}’ tdskim.Whe-n treated in this way it will not do to skim much under forty-eight hours. My plan is to skim morning and night’s milking, both, at the same time in winter. It does not hurt butter for the cream to sour—rather aids in churning, making butter come sooner. The cream-kettle I keep in the cellar until the day or evening before I wish to churn; then, if convenient, set near a coal stove or one that fire is kept in all night. In the morning, before churning, try with a thermometer;it should be at a temperature of 62°. If not convenient to set the cream near a warm stove, setting the kettle in hot water will answer every purpose. —■ — Many object to heating the milk because the milk sometimes burns to the bottom of the pans. Set pans with water on the stove, and place tbe pans with milk in these, and the difficulty is at once avoided, 4 Ban Francisco challenges New York or any other place to a count of murderers in proportion to population. She has thirteen murderers now in the lock-up, and apartments waiting. Tor as many more, whose claims to entertainment are indisputable, if they could only be found. Salmon eggs to the number of 750,000 were recently-sKippcd from Bremen to this country. Two-thirds of these are a present from the German Government, and they will be distributed by the Smithsonian Institution to the various fishbreeding establishments in the country.

The blades ftr the new swords ordered fw th* United fltot<is4nny.bavft just been finished at the Springfield Armory. They are perfectly straight, thirty-one inches long, and handsomely decorated with designs in asphaltum varnish. The swords will be very light, and much more convenient to carry than those in use at present. , — —-" Many persons say that they have tried almost every remedy that has been recommended for humors, and they are no better now than when they commenced them, and they have no confidence in anything that n advertised to cure Salt Rfieum, Erysipelas, and all similar humors. We would say tothese that there is now a remedy that as yet has never failed of curing those diseases. It acts Upon an entirely different principle from anything ever 'offered for them; it throws humor out of the blood through the skin, which is the only channel through which the system can be entirely freed from them. If you will try it, you will not say of this As you have-by the othwj for it will cure you. We refer to Dr. Weaver’s Salt Rheum Syrup. For sale by all Druggists. Editorial Opinions.—An advertisement is, as a general rule, an elaborate eulogium on the merit of something which the advertiser desires to sell. The editors and publishers of the paper in which it appears are not responsible for its statements. Sometimes, however, highly important discoveries or inventions, announced to the world through the business department of the press, seem to demand a few words of editorial commendation. We have no hesitation in saying that the excellent medicine introduced by Dr. Joseph Walker, of California, under the name of Vinegar Bitters, belongs to this category, and has a just claim to a favorable notice. There can be no-doubt as to its utility as a tonic, stomachic and alterative. We are cognizant of niany instances in which it has cured cases of chronic dyspepsia, supposed to be incurable,And know that the estimation in which it is held as a remedy for bilious and nervous disorders, intermittent and remittent fevers, rheumatism and general debility, is founded on experience and well deserved. The testimony of “a cloud of witnessess” goes to show that it is eminently useful in a large majority of the disorders to which the human family are subject. The fact that it contains no al cohol commends it to the confidence of that large and increasing class ot thecom“ munity who insist that all spirituous stimulants are active poisons. It is now generally admitted by honest physicians, that when once the consumption is fairly fastened upon the lungs, no human power can save the patient from death. They also say that about fifty per cent, of those who die from this disease can trace the cause to a neglected cough or cold which might have been cured by a small bottle of Liquid Opodeldoc, or what is the s ame thing, Johnson?! Anodyne Liniment. Curb for Cough or Cold.—As soon as there is the slightest uneasiness of the Chest, with difficulty of breathing, or Indication of Cough, take during the day a few '‘Brown's Bronchial Troches."
