Not Northern men alone, but their agricultural methods and peculiar pursuits. Every one will acknowledge that distant places are Yixes to have diverse business adaptions; yet eac! aectior of the country prides itselfon its pe- euliar products, as if they were the result of superior knowledge or enterprise. We venture to suggest the following reasons why ohe im- ic branch of Northern husbandry is not ikely to be transported to the South. First—Butter and cheese neyer have been staple products of the Southern States. Second—They never have been important pro- ducts in any part of the world having an equally low Iaiitude or climate. We are aking, of course, of articles made from cows’ milk and merchantables in our own or the Englith markets; not of East India ghee or of goatherd’s cheese. Third—Even in the Northern States, the dairy regions are by them- selves and commonly ina more elevated or more Northern portions. Fourth—The grasses which are the foundation of the large produce which it is necessary to obtain from eich cow in order to make the dairying profitable, do not flourish at the South. The biue-grass region is of limited extent, and hardly an exception to the general rule. We hope that these grasses and substitutes for them, can be introduced so far as their introduction would be fa real gain; but even the oat crops are precarious and in- ferior in Dixie. Wedo not mean to intimate that the agri- cultural capacity of the South is not on the average superior per acre to that of the North as to pecuniary profit. But this euperiori if it exists, is not likely to showitself in ii crops, hay crops or dairy product; though it may in beef, hidesand tallow. How much of its mother’s milk shall be giventoa calf? With us this is still an unsettled question constantly under discussion; but in semi-tropical climates ithas always been decided in favorof the young beef and the barbarous custom of dea- coning is unknown. Basement Stables. A correspondent of the Country Gentleman in reply toan inquiryin relation tothe health- ness of basement stables, says: “I have gene- say kept from fourteen to sixteen head of cattle in the basement of my barn, with from three to four horses, for twenty years past. The horses are kept up the year round; the cows I generally turn ont on the yard in front of the barn, when the days are pleasant. The stables are regularly cleaned every day, and welllittered. A more healthy, lot ofstock I haye never known, for I have not had a sick cow or horse’since I have used these stables. I certainly like basement stables—they are warm and comfortable in winter, and cool and pleas- ant in summer.” BUREAU OF Provisions meas } u al sag Proposals, sealed and endorsed **Propo- als for Navy Clothing for Boys,’ will be received at this Burean until 2 o'clock, p.m., on the Ith day of August next, for furnishing and delivering, < receiving thirty sexe notice,) at the United tates: wavy yr. at Charlestown, Mass., and Brooklyn, N.
