An arerage of four persons die dtu • y in England from delirium tremens. In the United States there is troitig on some lively sparring re the relative merits o£ milkers and butter makers of the Jersey and Holstein breeds. This is what the Jersey Bulletin savsof the Henvy-milking Dutch animals. We read in various papers that although Holstoin co«-s put the smallest per sent, of fat in their milk of any knowu breed of cattle, yel as they give more milk than any other breed, tho total butter yield may be quite respectable. We also read in physical geography that a small amount of gold maybe found among the sails of almost all sea water. The per centage 13 very small,it is true,but there is so much sea\water that tho total amount of gold in the soa must be very lar<*e. Unfortunately the chemists who furnished >is with the information have so far failed te furnish any practical means of collecting the scattered traces of butter and gold. They give us only " dissuetudinons knowledge." If the butter in Holstein milk is like the gold in sea crater, widely spread and hard to collict, th» butter in Jersay milk is like gold in a rich plaoer, mine, abundant, compact, and to be had bimply for the churning.
