SIncrj the timo tho Order appeared, fto tho present, reasons have not been Fwanting to prove the need of syste- ' matic concert of action among farmers and their families. These reasons have 'u0ii urn-nil unlil flinv mnv he c-onsldor- stale, yet current events Dnng inesc tnnew, ana sucn momucrs 01 mo (eras incline to inrr oy ms way, or ill out oi tnc ranKs, .snottitt consider luilly whether any good is likely to fc of such a proceed tire, ueiore tne i- was introducca tne ntriiicr.s am liig through any concerted .system, with nothing done, no results reached, and this is the attitude Biny iiii-uiiu m ici.iiisu iu. j-jwi.v inirs a lesson, and the last and fnBrartling is, mo lau oi i secretary Mknup. Tho Ordor wis instituted in tho hope i.elcvaMng those engaged in liusband V', enabling them ftho better to see telr busniess relations to tho world at rgo, to better comprehend their 'littion to the government, and tho re- Ilons whicli the government should Din to tne business oi agriculture ong strijlcs have been made in these ircclionj.

This is undoubt edly the position we occupy, and -what the people most need now, is a .Moses to lead them out of the tut-..

At last the artillerists havo gained an undoubted and unde niable victory. They had hoped, and indeed claimed tiie power of construct ing a gun capable of piercing the most powerfully armor-plated ship that could be built; and they have made their boast good. When the LV.-ton gun was ouiit; tne;coniuct was lelt to bo severe, and the oVi-ton gun was considered a match for all iron-dads except the In flexible, which is not yet built. But the completion of tho 8()-ton trim and the satisfaction it has given of eiiicien cy has now di-poed even of the Inflex ible': chance. Within tho space, there fore, of a feu weeks the whole of our ironclad fleet has sustained two crush ing blows; Hie Iron Duke and the 80 ton gun have proved the indomitable power of ti.e ram and of our tirtillery. A great deal has been said about the German gun, but there is nothing to prove that the ICrupp guns can, either in size or in penetrating power, come near tiiC'Sast production irotn the arsen al at Woolwich; and we may re-t fairly satisfied that wo have guns which, for strength, tlml is capacity for endurance and power, that i penctrativo capacity, are unequalled in tho world. At the same timo that news was given to us of the .success of the 80-ton gun, we were informed of the successful appli-eation-of hydraulic machinery to the guns in the turrets of the "Thunderer.'" This tlisposop of what had proved a scnons obstacle to the value of big gnu. It was all very well, says the 'Broad Arrow,' to construct these monsters; but r.iien they were placed on board ship, the question arose, naturally, how the.v were to bo worked. Men could only stand looking helplessly at gun, shot and shell; for to load the gun, or move it, readily and rapidly, was be yond any ellbrt of manual dexterity. Theannlicatioil of hvdimilic iiintIilni-rv has, however, solved thedifliculty: and with this new appliance, these large guns can be moved in their turrets and loaded with astonishing readiness and rapidity. In the presence of this double success, it is impossible to doubt that old theories of shipbuilding must be abandoned, and that, in future ipro granimes, the endeavor to encrust our warships with massive pile of armor will havo to bo discarded as obsolete and useless. Enrjthli Paper. TO-DAY. !ioman who committed suicido at jsiny on tho -ltd of March, has already niahod subject matter for a gooil aiy Horns. Tho Albany Democrat i another in regard to him, as fol k's: On Tuesday afternoon Mr. Fal r, son-in-law or O. II. Mitchell, In npany with 3fr. O. T. Smith, of ngont, and Messrs. Richard Kox and nrylliU, of this city, proceeded to cuiuuiec-y and opened the grave. y found a coflln nicely trimmed, li a snow-whilo pillow, but no head ling upon it. Tho casket contained nnortal remains, Imtt wo gtinnv sacks d with sand. Mr. Falger says that gruvo has apparently never been nod, mid itlutt the coflln wrw has 'a corps'e. He fools certain that unfortunate man was his father-in-, and tho only thing that can con ic him otherwise Mould bo theap uncoofMr. Mitchell alive; and ho tests us to ask any person knowing . II. JMiteholi hoing tilive, that thev Iniinndlately notify him at i'hllo- li, JJeiiton county. iL. Gilbert .writes to tho Albany oarttt that ho was acquainted with r. Mlfcholl, of Lane county, and tho nmn who oommltlcd suicide at ny wtii? not that Mitchell. The ikal of Albany writes that tho bodv Uiii(!idc was put In the coflln, the iciiroly astoueti and ileft iu the ,Iiouso over night. Whether the was taken out that night or after incut tho jnarshai tloos uot seem iorditig to tho -statements of rn papers, Jiuropo, instead of nn ting Uio era of peace, is preparing ir, and is alunuiy tiirned Into a amp.

Through the Suininor, from May until September, 1 niako about oighteon pounds per week for market, besides what butter, milk anil cream we use in the family. I set mv milk in a cool cellar in six-quart pans about half full; mi; mum sutiiii aooui uurry-six hours; then skim off tho cream, put it in a stone jar; then add a teasooonful of saitpotro lor a two gallon jar; then ovory time I skim in .new.creani I stir from tho btittom. That will keop it sweet until tho third flay. Then churn as early iu the morning as possible. I use tho Blanchurd churn, and when it is gathered, draw otr the butter milk, work the butter iu the churn, put in two teacupfuls ofsalt to six pounds of butter. I then take it out in a wooden bowl, sot it in the cellar until the next morning. I then take mv butter hullo and a small wooden bowl, take about one pound at time, and work until the butter milk is all out; then pack in stonojars. Great care should betaken -with tho pans and pails; scald thorough ly and dry in the sun. I keep my col lar closed through the day to keep outj mo sun ami not air. At night 1 let tho cool air through a slat door. But tor made in this way will keep sweet i .vear. Mrs. M. It. There are five .states iu the I'liion in which tho death penally lias boon ah- olishod, viz: Maine, Connecticut, Wis consin. Iowa, Michigan. In two of these states, Wisconsin and Michigan, the abolition seems to have worked sat isfactorily; in Maine thoro havo been several atrocious murder iu the past tlvo years, and life imprisonment docs not seem to havo the desired effect there. A hanging law still prevails iu Vermont but murderers are verv rare occurrences there. Rlsnl for tho day is pissing, ADd 3 011 lie dreamlnt: on And others have buckled tliolr armor, And forth to tho war havo foue. A place Iu tbe ranks anntts ynu, Each man baa tomo part to play; Tup past and the lulure are nothing, In the face of the stern to-day. ItUe from your dreams of the future, Of paining some hard fought field, Of utormlDgsome airy furiroa, Or bidding i-omo giant yield. Your lulure has dci-ds of glory, Of honor, (God grant It may!) Hut your hi in will never be stronger, Or the need so grtat as to day! Hist-1 If the past dclalrm you, Her sunshines and storms forget, No chainsKO unworlhy to hold you Ax those of a aln legret. Slid or bright, she is lifeless forover; Cast her pbautotn arms away, Nor look back save toloaru the lesson Of a nobler htrile to-day. ItlFe! for the daj' Is passing; The low sound that jou scarcely hear, Is trie enemy inarching to tiattle; Arise! for tbe foe id near! istay not to sharpen your weapons, Or the hour will striko at last, When, from dreams ot a coming feV.tlo, You may find it pan.' M tpil I ! Ml Important Cattlo Sale. We mentioned a short time since ttoat there was to be a public sale ol shorthorn -cattle at tho State Fair Grounds in Sacramento some time lu April, under the auspicwi of tho Shorthorn Bn-edtr-' Association ofC'alitornia. We have now receivtd a catalomje of the cat tlo lo bo sold and can speak more definitely on the subject. The sale is to take place oh the -Oth day of Aptll, and the parlies who propoe to sell thoroughbred stock are Cyrus Jones it Co , of Sau Jose: W. T. Ovt-rhiser, of Stockton j John Brewster, of Giflt, Sacramento county; Moses Wide, ot Orovllle, Unite count ; Coleman Younger, ot San Jiwb; William Quinn. of ban Jose; J. I). Can-, ot Gkbllau, Monterey count; M. 15. Sturrs, of Uenterville, Alameda county, and William n.i'arjis, aomintsiiator 01 tne laie ( is. Swezy. of Marysville. Tho wbolenuuibernt thoroughbred cattle to be sold Is about, S, ln"ltidlug bulls, tos and calves. There will alo be sold pome fifteen or more grade cattle, owned by B. Coin-stock of Yolo coun ty, and a number of Berkshire hogs by W. T. Orerhiser ol'fctocktou. All are well known and successful brecdeis of the stock thoy are putting up for .le. Tbey do uotexpeutto obtain at miMic fuidiou too nrlceM thev could sell the anlm-ilH for at private sale, but they de-tire to lnmiguiate the practice of hold ing public sale- iuimiihIIv, or more frequently, In this State for the pnrpose of giving all parties, the sdvnnced breeder, and the more prudent and cautious beginner, an etjnnl show by the putvhasn -"J" good clioico animals to Improve his stock. At private nbIo the advanced breder will pick up tbee choice anlmais, leaving tbe second cbolco to his less exitf-rienced neighbor, whereas, at nnhlic sales, all stand, on equal footing, and are sure to get the animal of thsir choice at the price tbe public judgment places upon bini. In HugUnd and the Eastern States verv lew good animals are sold at private sale, tho public 8leN having been found more satis factory to tbe public, and when once well established on honorable terms equally as profitable to the owner. We havo no doubt that the sale announced for tbe UO.h ot- A-pHI will bring together a larirer assemblaa-- ot cattle men than has ever met on any similar occasion Iu tbe State, and that ihey will very geneially come to buy. iSoc, Xhit'on. Cuiik ron thk Hoc; Ohomira. J. P. Lai lor, Ji-H'erson county, near Grubville, says that the best remedy yt discovered for tho hog cholera (so-called), is tho fol lowing: Take one box of concentrated lye and dis solve it in ten or twelce gallons ot water. This will do for ten or twelve hogs. Give alxuit o-e pint to each hog dallv for several days. It is to be given in slops of some kind.
