 it a premium. Several were for exhibition

bracing so many olijecls, ought to occupy a con- 

 siderable portion of the time which is necessar- 

 ily devoted to the examination. Under these cir- 

 cui!is!iuices,'they I'cg leave to suggest the propri- 

 ety, at our future Shows, of dividing the labours 

 between two or rpoie Coiiunittees. It is believ- 

 ed that justice would be more likely to be done, 

 and m;iny tine animals offered for exhibition, 

 which under the present arrangement escape 

 the notice of a Committee, would receive that 

 attention which tlioy are entitled to, and which 

 owners expect.

BUTTER. 



Some writers inveigh against the use of but- 

 ter as universally pernicious ; but they might 

 with equal reason condemn all vegetable oils, 

 which t'orm a sonsiderable part of diet in the 

 southern climates, and seem to have been bene- 

 ficially intended by nature for that porpose. — 

 Butler, like every other oily substance, has 

 doubtless a relaxing qualify, and if long retained 

 in the stomach, is liable to become rancid ; but, 

 if eaten in moderation, it will not produce those 

 effects. It is, however, improper in bilious con- 

 stitutions. The worst consequence (iroduccd by

feet their shape. Judge Lincoln's Heifers of 

 this breed show conclusively their value as 

 milkers; and his other animals, exhibited this 

 day, bear as unequivocal testimony to their 

 worth for the stall. The Bull of Mr Hubbard, 

 also, is a sufficient voucher for their size and 

 shape. 



Your Committee would not do justice to their 

 own feelings should they omit the stock of Mr 

 Boylston, though only a part of it falls within Ihe 

 classes assigned to them. The Committee know 

 not the origin of his stock; but this they know, 

 that so long as he shall continue to add to the 

 interests of our Show, as he ever has done, by 

 producing such stock, they shall ever be proud 

 to acknowledge him as a Worcester farmer. 



Your Committee represent, that so great a 

 number of animals is assigned for their examin- 

 ation, and the time allowed them so short, that 

 it is nearly impossible to satisfy themselves in 

 awarding premiums ; and they have little time 

 to notice those offered for exhibition. The

The petitioner states that she isninety three years old ; 

 that she accompanied her husband, who, at an early 

 period, enlisted in the continental army, and continued 

 throughout the whole war, and was present and par- 

 ticipated in most of the conspicuous actions of that 

 eventful period ; tliat, among other novel employments 

 for a lady, she assisted i« picking up ball" thrown from 

 the enemy's cannon, in order that, to use her own ex- 

 pression, " the enemy might get as good as he sent." 

 She states that she has been the mother of twenty three 

 children, all of whom were dead. 



A bill has passed the Kentucky Legislature declar- 

 ing it felony to take a dead body from the grave, with-
