An exchange says the husking season is the time to secure the best and most durable of under-beds. All the inner husk of the corn should be saved for this purpose. True it takes a great many to make a bed, but when once the sack is filled it is abed for life, and is the lightest and softest thing of the kind that anyone could desier. The husks curl up as they dry, and never mat down afterwards. Moreover, no insects ever lodge in them, as vermin do in straw. They are perfectly clean and being of strong and tough texture, they will not wear out for years. "Scientic American". Every state carried by General Taylor has been by an increased majority, whilst every state carried by Gen Cass has been by a reduced one. A test of genuine tea is a grain and a hlf of sulphate of iron; genuine green tea has a bluish tint; bolica a blackish blue. If adulterated it is all colors. Cider drinkers, it is now asserted by medical men in England, escape the Cholera. It contains malic and tannic acid. The last time Gen. Taylor was in Washington, was previous to his going down to Corpus Christi [Texas] whither he was ordered by President John Tyler to take command of the Army of Observation concentrated near the frontier of Texas. He will return on the 4th of March to make his his report in person. The work of the telegraph. The Detroit Free Press says: The unofficial vote of the city of Boston and the returns from 91 towns in that state were received here on Tuesday evening at a quarter past 8 o'clock, and before the result was known in the first ward of this city. The result in Baltimore and Philadelphia city was received by way of St. Louis via Chicago, in this city, before 12 o'clock at night. The vote of Chicago, Milwaukie, and this city [Detroit] was in New York before 9 o'clock. Receipts of Cotton. It will be seen that the receipts of cotton in this city for the last 3 monhts , have been unprecendently heavy, and the prospect is, that they will continue so to the end of the season. We would not be at all surprised if from present indications, the total recipe by Railroads and Wagons for the present cotton year, would reach 160,000 bales. If 1/20 part of this were manufactured in this place, Macon would sustain 3 times her present population. Gen. Taylor's Resignation. We learn that Gen Taylor has sent in his resignation as Major-General commanding the Western Division of our army, and that it will take effect after the 1st of Feb. next. It is a remarkable coincidence that the late order of the War Dept to Gen Taylor, in relation to the transfer of Gen Twiggs from his post on the Rio Grande to the commandlately filled by Gen Kearny, at St. Louis, was dated 7th Nov, the day upon which the people ordered the General to prepar to assume on the 4th of March next, the position of Commander-in-chief. The National President. The National Intelligencer notes the fact that Gen Taylor has received 97 electoral votes in the Free States and 66 in the Slave States, being a majority of the electoral votes in both sections of the Union.....he is more than any other since the days of Washington, a national President--the man for the times and the crisis.
