The Milk iukI Ilnllcr HnMltieNN. Uncle John SisBon, of the Triadelphla district, wua In town Saturday. Undo John Im ouu ol thpso farmers who always lake a healthy and cheerful view of the aglu ultunil hiiuntion, and herein ho differs widely from very many other farmers. If things do notexactly suit him ono year he hopeH and expects better luck next year. Whatever Is in riyht with him. A healthy complexion and a good natured smile al* ways irradiate hla face. All thin is preliminary to taying tiiat Undo John regards thiri as a tungnillcent year for the farmer, lie speaks in flowing terms of tho corn and the bountiful condition of tho pasture tielda. "Why, then," we asked, "la butter ho ileal?" "Uecause hired help is so scarce in the country," said he, "and the women of the house do not care to undergo the drudgery of milking and churning." Therefore the farmers are keeping fewer cowa than formerly.' The girls who go out for domestic service prefer to come to town, I.ut an increased number, as compared with iormer days, do not go out at all, Their families prefer to have them stay at home. It will be remembered by some of our wider* that Col. North, of the Kichlan^ di.slrid, made this same observation earlier in the year, when asked why pasture was mm plentiful ami yet butter so nnaturally M-arce and dear. 'He too gave an tlu1 explanation the dilliculty of getting good ^irls in the country any longer, and iJji* reluctance of farmers' wives and dau^liters to milking and churning beyond the iii'ivshities of their own households. And tlms it happens that au extra good year in tlit' way of abundant pasture witnesses a hiuli price ("0U?tt5 cents) for butter. Is there a remedy for this state of things? The people want butter, but only a limited number want it at thirty and thirty-five raits. It is with butter as it was with bee/, when the latter was so high n few months ago. The price seriously curtailed consumption. To such an extent did the consumption fall oil'that with an actual diminution in the supply of cattle, beef gradually became plcntier and the price uecliued. Totlay it is to he had at the old price of "a shilling a pound," or, in plainer words, at l-l cents. This decline in meat provides au offset to the demand for butter in many house* holds, hard is wholly used for cooking purposes by them. Meat takes the place of butter. And yet, despite this curtailed demand for butter, the price of it still keeps up, and it seems as if rich pastures and an abundance of hay were not able to effect a change, but that wc are going into the winter season at a very high starting point for ui mi: ncucfcsuica oi me. Anu mi uer.m-iii there is not domestic help enough in t/ie country to make butter sufficient to niw.t the demand. % The contrast between these days aud former days is striking enough. A generation ::go butter was supplied- in abundance at (> to 8 cents per pound, brought to .town .-it that by the women of the laiid, ami exchanged for calico at the rate of ulitee pounds of butter for oue yard of calwo. Now the tables are completely reversed, and more than reversed, for it takes five to six yards of calico to buy a pound of butter.* We presume that milking and churning *??'ro us hard work in those days as in these latter days, and, if anything, a little harder, for these ara the days of patent churns, inchidingdog chums, and there isnowa patent contrivance for squeezing the udders and exuding the lacteal fluid. But still the number of dairy maids and matrons diminishes: as it would seem, aud per coubuHiieucfc the number of cows. What is the use in cows and nobody to milk them? Therefore they are fattened for the stall of lhe butcher, and we are forced to utilize them in a solid instead of a liquid way. Is it any wonder that some old-fashioned peo pie #ipfak of those days as degenerate day*, ami love to contrast them with the days when the "Ituy* usvd to icapAtul mow, Ami the Kiel* ?it mid tew. (Aud lUewlw uiilk mul cliuru) on tin* banks of the Ohio." The question arises, have the farmers <&o\ S3 well oil' raising aheep and wool that they don't care to bother about cows any more? And have calicoes and delaines and muslins and woolen wear not so cheap, and the fashions and extravagancos of the day so exacting, that country maicirt and matrons have no time left from he sewing machine for the old-fashioned occupations of milking and churning? Is >t true, as MarkTvflin says, that "everything is cut bias and Btitched double" tho?? d>\X8, and that -"raising babies and wives are among the lost arts"? So it would Jteem. At all events we are impressed with the fioioos aspects of this question, and we recuiumftid to the Honey's Point Dobating Society the discussion of the following UtllKltSn...

With the peculiar craft of the [ Guitcau race, &he determined to be on the ] safe side, and while tho jury was debating 1 the question of her insanity alio took her J leave, and evidently has no intention o( returning to fall into the hands of tho au* thoritios. This result is not altogetner unsatisfactory to George Scoville, as tho vor- * diet of insanity against his wife nullifies |( tho proceeding for divorce end alimony i instituted by her, and now pending, and o gives him the custody of Bertha, the little irirl.' " By 'ft; 30 o'clock this morning several c antiquated females were perambulating the v corridor, on the liret tloorof tho court ^ bouse, waiting for tho verdict in tho Scovillecase. Mrs. Scovillo herself did not ? come to the court at all. Her attorney i. mid alio meant to come, but was frightened # 311' by some suspicious visitors that she bad < yesterday. About 5 o'clock in the after- *, boon, aiid again at u later hqur, a man J" sailed at the Sheldon House, when she was way, to see iter, leaving word that ho was from the Polico Court. When Mrs. Scovillo returned and learned of the circumstances she at once supposed it was a trick *' jf-her husband to get possesion of their little daughter Bertha. That altered her plans, and she seems to have secreted her self-ever since. ' Tho verdict was agreed upon and sealed 1 last evening, and was opened at 10 o'clock, r( by, which time tho usual crowd had col- al lected iii tiie court room, including Mr. tl b'covilie and his attorney.

Scoville, who is alleged to be H insane, having heard the evidence in the case, are satisfied that the said Francis M. 11 Scoville is insane, and is a fit person to be ?/ jenttoa Stato hospital for the insane; li that she is a resident of tho County of Ul Cook, in the State Illinois; that her age ia UJ forty-six years; that her disease 1b of about 11 iix months' duration; that the disease is *c with her hereditary; that she does uot m manifest homicidal or suicidal tendencies, Hl :tnd that she is not a pauper." a' The verdict was received by the Court- 01 loom iu siience, una apparently with dis- .. pleasure. Mrs. Scoville's attorney entered " i motion for a new trial, and Mr. Scoville * made a motion for the appoiutment of a :onser\'Ator, hut the judge informed him H that he had no jurisdiction over that matter and that he must apply to the Probate , Court. Mrs. Scoville's attorney said pri- * vately, before the Court opened, that Mrs. P1 Scoville had friends who would run her ,, ?tl' to Canada and support her there if she .leaired it; c Immedinlely after tlie rending of the JJj verdict iu the Couuty Court Mr. Scoville ? stepped, across the hall into the oflice of )?. :he Clerk of the Probate Court and filed !" the following petition: ' ' To the Ilouomblc the Judge of the l'robate 7, Court of Cook County: Your petitioner, George Scoville, of said ouutyof Cook, respectfully shows unto c\ YourHonor that ho is" the husband of ^ FmnceijM.

J auiultr Bell*vetf lo Have Cnnicd Youuir B ficlnvnrtz'N Crime. * New Yohk, October 28.?Too only way i which the friends of Mr. Lewis Lyon, ^ le President of the Third Avenue Rail- c >ud Company, can explain the murderous f tempt on him by his nephew, is on the leory that Schwartz was insane when he ^ jmmitted the uct. Captain Gunner, of ] ie Twenty-eighth Precinct, remained out a I night on Friday investigating the cause c ! the uttuek, but his laboru ended fruit- " ssly. lie is now convinced that the a icory of sudden insanity is tho only [ roper one. After examining many per- 1 ma who were iutimately acquainted with r itb Mr. Lyon and his nephew, the Cap- t iin belivea there was no trouble between S lem, either of a family or business char- a :ter. Reasons are now advanced for be- a eving that Schwartz was of unsound t lind, which did not occur to his friends i i first. It is atuted on the authority of t iose who knew him that he was addicted c habits which aflected his mind so as to 8 iakc him continuously morose and mel- I icholy. This drove him to drink to excess i: ; times, although he was not an habitual 8 constant drinker. o While suffering from a fit of melancholy a is thought that he shot at Mr. Lyon, who p as his best friend.' E Such, his fnends say, was only the nat rai results 01 a deceased mental condi on. r Charles S. .Arthur, Secretary of the Third t venue railroad company, said to a re- ' Drter to-day: 1 "I did not hear of ihooting affray until I o'clock Jiiat night A man asked ic what the . matter was at le depot and I told him that 1 knew ^ ; none; He then informed me that the reman of the feed department had shot t the president of the road. I only ' ughed at the statement," not thinking for 5 moment that it possibly could bo true, j u coming home I got on one of our care id asked if there had been any trouble the depot Then 1 was informed of the rcumetances. Since then I have made a lorough investigation of the whole matter, id 1 am. positive that the man had not . ic slightest motive for committing the ' ime. While I thought so before, I am now J invinced that Schwartz was of uneound ind when he entered Mr. Lyon's ollice. ihwartz's mother is Mr. Lyon s sister. She res in Baltimore, and has several sons ^ '-sides Charles. The others are in bu.si- .. .'88 in Baltimore. For many years Mr. yon has acUd like a lather to his sister's x lildren. He has done a great deal /or ' em, and has always been regarded with f eat gratitude by every member of the > mily. Charles was no exception. lie t> red his position on the road to Mr. Lyon, id on no occasion did he show a dispoaim to be unfriendly with his uncle. He [{ as a bachelor, and received a salary of " ft ween $1,100 and $1,200 a year. At first j ! started as a conductor on the road, but dustry and honesty secured his promo>n. The statement that he was threatened jj th being discharged is absolutely false, i, you see, that ho had no "reason n r assaulting Mr. Lyon, but 1 -J, ink that Schwartz was guilty of " aetices which unsettled his mind. He Jj io drank considerably of late, and 1 believe that he had the 'jim-jams.' I have ? en thinking that I escaped luckily by t being here. If I had been in the room hink he would have shot me, for he had it as much cause as he had to attack the cc a rreaiaenu in uie aiternoon he went ^ ;o Superintendent Robinson's office sevil times. The Superintendentasked him lat lie wanted, and he simply replied )thing,' aud walked out, Baying.that he re iuldbein again, It happened that the M porintendent waB engaged with some rson each time.
