HASZARD'S GAZETTE. JUNE 14. *" 5 xiscmsnsous A New WAY TO Rites Cii.vss.—From the Correspondence ot the Country Gen- tleman we extract the following :——The farmer keeping thirty cows should be able to raise some hall-donen calves an- nually, from the best milkers in his herd to supply the place of those failing from old age and casualties of various kinds, and to improve his dairy stock, at a_cost somewherernear the value of the animal when matured. The idea of raising stock to supply our wants by feeding calves for three or four months on ne\v milk, either from the pail or at the tent, is, to say the least, simply abSl1l'd- 0110 gallon of milk makes a pound of cheese, worth, to the producer, ten cents, or the same value if made into butter. A calf requires two gallons per day, equal to twenty cents. Tliree weeks feed, at this rate, amounts to as much as the calf may be expected to bring at four months age. There is, then, a loss of twenty cents per day for the reniaiiiing two or three months that they are ted, amount- ing to a loss of at least eight dollars each, the first season. In a butter dairy the skim or sour milk may be led, perhaps. Unless there is some cheaper method to be practised, we can never render ourcity beef eaters any relief. My method is as follows, and calves may and have been raised by it, that were very far above the average, even of good lots, at four months. Take the calf from the cow at three days old and teach it to drink; it will learn far earlier then than at any time after, feed new milk twice a day one week longer. At two weeks begin feeding once a day, porridge, made of from three to four quarts of sweet whey and one pint of meal, of a mixture in nearly equal parts of oats, buckwheat, corn and rye. Cook as if for one of the human family. The cost of one quart of this meal (daily mess for each) may be three cents, which is all the value they consume, the whey being of too little value to make any account of. Give this feed four months, and continue the whey a month longer, always with a good bite of grass, tender and sweet, and no fears ne enter- tained for the result. give warm shelter, good hay, and one pint of cats each daily, and my word for it, you will never be ashamed to have a neighbour call and look at your young stock. 'I‘i-is LATE WAR AND irs EFFECT on Sci-ioor. ArraNmiNcs.—One part of Mr. Henley’: speech in the recent Education debate in the British House of Parlia- ment, may claim aseperate‘ notice. He said, “The attendance of children at school had been gradually increasing from year to year, till in 1853 it reached eighty per cent. of those who might be expected to attend. Then came the war with high prices and short labour ; when the tide turned, the attendance began to drop; and by the last return it had fal- len off from eighty to seventy per cent.” MASON sun Dixon's Lma—0inoiN or ‘rat Paiuss.—In, the seventeenth century James II. of England, then the Duke of York, gave certain lands to Lord Baltimore and Willam Penn, and a dili- eulty soon sprung up as to who was the proper owner of these lands on the Dale.- ware.

THE MARRIAGE VOW. Perhaps there is scarcely an ordinary oath adininistcrec in any ofthe transactions of life so little regsrded—so little even remembered by ll classes, as that taken in the most solemn manner, and in the pre- sence of the Almighty, by the husband and wife—“ Love, honor, and obey.”—“ How many wives love, honor, and obey their lords?” He» many even think of doin so? and ye? there is an oath recorded against t'.ein, every simple violation of which is a distinct perjury. No woman should marry without first knowing her usband’s character so well, that she ma obey him with discretion and safety. She yields herself at the altar to his disposition, from which even an attempt to fly is a crime. A wife who contradicts her hus- band is foresworn. No matter what man- ner of man he be, she must "obey,” if she keep her oath. She has made no reserve or condition at the marriage cere- mony. She has not said “I will honor and obey, if he shall dersorve it.” Her contract is unconditional. It would he better for young ladies before they yield the fatal “yes,” to take this view of the subject. They have a duty to perform to their husband, whether he be kind or un- reasonable, and they must remember the poet's words, " Wcr is no strife To the dsrlr horns and the detestod wife.” “Pop oes the weasel” has become the chorus o a thousand snatches of song, but not one ‘of a thousand who sing it ever heard of its origin. But its parentage is as easily traced as that of on English baronet. A famous Methodist preacher. by the name of Craven, was once preaching in the heart of Virginia, and spoke as follows: " Here are a great many profess- ors of religion to-day. You are sleek, fat, good-looking, yet something is the matter wit_ you. Now, you have seen whest, which was plump, round, snd good-looking to the eye,_biit when you weighed it you found that it only came to forty-live or perhaps forty-eight pounds to the bushel, when it should be sixty or sixty-three pounds. Take a kernel of that wheat between your thumb and finger, hold it up, squeeze it, snd—-pop oes the weevil. Now you good-looking professors of reli- BIO". you are plump and round, but you only weigh some forty-five or forty-six pounds to the bushel. What is the matter? Ah! when you are taken between the thumb of the law snd the finger of the Gospel, held up to the light and squeezed, out pops the whisky-bottle.” From “ o oes the weevil” to “pop goes the weasel” the transition is essy. We expect the thanks of the universal Smith family for the following very obvious explanation of the fact, that their name i. so common in the community, and so iiivs. rilbly associated with the highest order of respectability. It is true, that the policg reports in. the news spers have now and then intimated, that aim smith was up to: some niorsl delinquoney,_ but this can be sccouritod for by supposing _st Ihejrgpgrt. ers mist the nuns, rthe i-"cu . . _ er. it-1 kxt “ lnblp r - iim.°°sa 'li>lti;’ iliiiiiiggy ar"iill'.°s.i.iuii': osoostsrt, Mnssohussfls, I tlomsn who has the niisfortuiie to wear a very rough snd ugly name, for which he is not to be blamed indeed, as his father had it and gave it to him before he wad able to nymic. In one of his editorial effusions, he chanced to give utterance to his gratitude that his name was not “ Snir'lh.”’ The next day, in ii rival newspaper, one of this numerous family appeared on this wise: "The hard-named -editor who blesses himself he is not a Smith, is probably not swsro, that originally all white men were called by that name, as all had something to do, and a Smith is a door: but whenever one of them fell into disgrace, by the com- mission of crime, his name was changed that he might not be reckoned thereafter among the respectable Smiths. And the greater the crime, the worse the name assigned to the criminal. Hence the hard title by which this editor is compelled to be called; and hence the number and the credit of the Smith family." That is certainly a very simple solution of a genealogical problem. An English barber in the season of the season of the epidemic, remarked to one of his customers thiit there was “ cholera in the hair.” " Then I hope brushes you use. "Oh,” said the barber, “ I don't mean the ‘air of the ’ed, but the hair of the liatmospherc.” you are careful about the Our neighbour, William Williston, had is remarkable facility for not telling the truth. Indeed, he became so much addict- ed to saying the thin that was just the other way from true, t at he lived and died with the reputation of being the most noto- rious liar in our town. ut his mourning family caused a decent tombstone to be set up to his memory, with this epitaph there- on: Weep not for me, my friends so dear, I am not dead, but sleeping here." This remarkable assertion seemed so like to those that William W. was apt to make while he was living, that one of his neigh- bors inscribed with his pencil the following lines beneath the shove, and a friend copies them for us: ‘ Released from sorrow and from sighing, Here rests the body of cor Will. Who, while he livod,_wss s wsys lying. And in his gun is lying stilt." Msnicu. Srnr Cosrs ros rns Coro- iuss.—Dotschments of the Medical Staff Corps are under orders for embsrkstion for the colonies to be employed in the mili- tary hospitals at Kingston, Montroelend Toronto (Cansda,) St. Johns, Nova Scotis, Kingston, and Port Royal (Jamsica,) and in other West India Islands. The princi- pal portion of the orderlies required for this service are at present employed in the hospitals at Scutsri, Kululee, Renkioi and Abydos, where their services canno, be dispensed with, until the sick, woundedt and convalescent have been embarked fo, England, which will not take place untir about July. A German clergyman, in our sister State of Pennsylvania, was frequently called upon to perform the marriage ceremony in the English language, with which he was not very familiar. He made s translation from the German form in his liturgy, and read it oil‘ with a good round tone of voice, as if he were quite at home; but he always noticed, that when he recited a certain part of it, the final declaration, the surrounding compppy invariably tittered and sometimes Iaug e outright. Being unable to disco- ver sii thing wron in his words or toss‘- nor, e requests a brother clergyman. well versed in the English tongue, to revise his formula. As he proceeded to read it, he smiled at some of the slit lsr forms of expression, but at the c use exploded, wheretho good German, in all sini licily, instead of saying, "And they more shall be one I/loch,” hsd invariable sdtounded his bride psrties by declaring, “ And they twsin shsl be one ~asn!"

Ono pound of corfi in grains will support a weight of fourteen pounds in water-; rind, so prepared, itis ad- mirably adapted for beds, cushions or the like, particularly for steam nndforry-boats, packets, etc. Cork in grains is softer than horse-lisir, and is more durable, and less expensive. It is a non-conductor of heat, and therefore warmer in Winter and colder in Summer than the common bed ; and when applied to clothing, as it can be, by quilting, it is said to be favorable for the prevention and cure of rhematism. In all applications, both for ladies and gentlemen, it is a Life-Preserver, because it will al- ways he in order, ifin use. Beds thus pre- pared, and lashed to a boat, render it s Life-boat ; and several planks or spars so prepared become it safe raft. Insects will not live in cork beds ; and they are not favorable to infection, as they can be clean- ed without injury. For these reasons they have been recommended by physicians, and are now used in some ofour public institu- tions. Pris snouua as Punrso Dssr.—In the culture of peas, one old routine is slmost invariably prsctiscd, viz: plant them about two inches under ground, in drills, and as they grow, draw earth up to them, so that when they come into bearing, and just when they require the most nourishment, moisture, &c., they get the least, for all showers of rain, by means ofthe drills, run rapidly oil’ the ground, and the sun has more effect in drying rapidly after rains ; to these sdd the feet that if shallow planted, and so drawing up earth afterwards, nearly all the roots are near the surface ; hence, early maturity and early decay. Experi- ments in planting four years, at diflbrent depths, have shown that the pea will grow freely in good mellow, loamy soil, st a depth of one foot ; but at the some time, we would recommend planting in the generality of soil, at say six to eight inches deep ; by so doing, your pess will come as early as when planted only two inches deop—will grow stronger, roduce more, and continue longer.—OIrio or-trier.

Gas has recently been introduced into Holyhead. On the day but one following the lighting, a countryman, with a sack upon his arm, leading a horse, was seen to stop at the offers ol the gss works, and the following colloquy took place: Coun- tryinan: Is it here they sell gas?—Gas- man: Yes, what of that?-—Country_man: Master has heard, that it is cheaper by one- hslf than candles, and he has sent me with money to fetch a srickful of it!
