Deposites have been placed, those Banks nave
called in the loans which they had EXTENDED 10

CHOLERA, IN A NEW FoRM-The Black Tongue
disease in horses is becoming so prevalent and
spreading with such rapidty, that we are al
most induced to believe it is species of Chole-
"a. 1t is injecting horses, cows, oxen, sheep,
and even the feathered tribe; and what is more
strange, man near Deerfeld, who has been
among horses suffering with it, has contracted
the disorder 1t is a species of Putrid Sore
Throat or Canker RASH eating off the roots of
the tongue and turning it black, and at the
same time diseasing the glands of the throat.
Cleanliness of racks and managers should be
preserved, and as preventive, salt is said
to be excellent. A piece of gum assafetida
placed in each manger, and another fasten-
ed in the water bucket, are Indispensable
to the health of animals about these times
Another preventive used in large stables in this
town, is putting composition Of tar and cam
phor on piece of cloth and wind it round the
bits. Fine salt thrown into the mouth and sui
phur scattered in the manger occasionally
One of our extensive stage proprietors informs
us he has twelve horses diseased with the Black
Tongue, and six with similar disease in the
foot, which occasions it to rot off.
