TIE DUTTER-TNADE, Comparatively n now sowrco of wealth to the Northwost, and of oschango to Yny Enstern bills, is tho trado in butter, Till within tho last fow yeara tho quality of & large mn{urll.y of tho article that reachod tho city from the surround- jug country was abominable,—uniit formarkoting’ hero or olsewhoro, Many of our older citizons used to import their butter from soctiona of Now_ York, or gomo othor Easlorn Btalo from which they came, in ordor to gotan article fil 0 placo upon thoir tables. Tho salute of somo jolly Gonoral officor to tho buttor-plate at Mom- phis, for tho roason that it *oulranked him," might, only » fow years since, have beon appro- px'inl.nl mpdoe to most of tho buttor that was found In this market. A Wo aro glad to roport that all this is changed. Our farmers hiave found that it will poy to make n tirst-olnss articlo of butter, and they make it. "Thoro is & domand for that for city consumption and for shipment, Inforior and stalo parcels nre rojected. i-‘rom A. Wallingford, Esq., Agent of the Blua Line, wo lonrn that from five to sovon refrigera- tor cnra of this line aro shippod East overy day 1o New York and Boaton, loaded with buttor, The car is linod on the insido all round with com- partments made of zin, filled with pounded ice, which keops down the tomperature to about 40. At Dotroit, Ningara Falls, and Albany, the cars are inspeoted, and the plxco of whataver ico has melted i8 supplied. 'Tho car iy, in fact, & rofrigorator in which, as each ‘car corriea 10 tons, from_ 60 to 70 tons of buttor go East evory day. ILvonat a low tlgure somo $20,000 por dey is recoived by our farmers for tlus articlo alone. -Carsare scnb Weat from this cityrogularly to gathor it in from the differont stations, As soon as it arrivos it is placed in an ice-houso till thocars can bo nrnn§- ed for shipmont, Tho circuit from which it comos embracos & largo sharo of Bonthorn Wis- consin, Miunesots,;as far as Fairabault, Con- tral Jows, and o largo gection of our own Btato. Mr, Wallingford informs us that tho rich poa- tures of tho Northwost produco & very splondid butter, aud {ho ort of making it is oxlonfilug rapidly and widely umong our farmors, ‘This is attested by ssmaort trick tbat Now York and Boston doalers oro practicing upon their customers. Pails or fubg aro mado neat and uniform, and aro sont forward with only a singlo lotter stamped upon thom. When thoy got to New York or Boston the namo of somo favorito dairy or denler in Orange County, N.
