not for this, in vain were all their sufferings
and bloodshed TO subjugate the New World

for what are these men about to be tried

USING SINGLE OxEN.-Many farmers are
not aware of the many uses to which a sim
gle OK may be put. If they happen TO lose
one OF the yoke, they too generally let the
other remain idle until they can find
mate for him, or sell him to the butcher.
But why not keep him to work? In sim
gle yoke they may be soon taught to lead
a team and perform all the operations which
Ia single horse can.
A worthy old relative of ours once tried
this experiment with complete success
Having lost one Of his steers by accident,
he concluded to train the other to work
alone. Accordingly he was put into the
single harness-before other oxen-or in
the fills of single wagon. In the horse
cart he was first rate, and he soon became
familiar with the saddle and bride. and
many good ride have we had in our yon-
ker days, la mode de Hottentot, upon his
back. He was no mean courser upon the
turf, and if we had him now in his prime,
we should not fear matching him with the
best of the scrub Sweepstakes, though back
ed and spurred by the Veriest horse jockey
that can be found from Kitlery to Calais

Go IT Boors.-We heard a good story
related few days since. 1t ran thus: A
young man who had not seen much of the
world, and was raytber unsophisticated
took a notion to try for the heart and hand
of fair girl of his acquaintance. Think
ing his suit would be more successful, he
came to town and purchased 4 pair Of new
boots. These he put on one Sunday eve
ming, and fastened to the abode of his lady
fair She with others of the family, did not
have much conversation with the young
sutton, and, moreover did not notice his new
boots. By and by, after he had placed his
boots in every position, he despaired Of the
prospect that they would be made topic
of converse-at this juncture chunk hap
pened to roll out upon the hearth, which
he kicked into the fire, exclaiming, s You
needn't think strange if yoU smell new

slandering bachelors.
We learn from the American Republican
that at numerous and highly respectable
meeting Of the Goats, on the commons in
the vicinity of the city Of Baltimore, pur-
suant to public notice, the following me-
mortal was unanimously adopted, and Or
dered to be presented to Congress at the
approaching session
To the Senate and
House Of Repre- sentatire Of the U. S.
| The memorial and petition of the goats OF
the United States, respectfully showeth:
That your memorialists, and their forefa-
theirs, have been, ''for period whereof the
memory of man runneth not to the contra
ry," in the exclusive and undisturbed en-
Ijoyment of the privilege of wearing a tuft
of beard on and under the chin, which is
appropriately denominated the goatee That
this privilege has, in all ages, been held
and honored by genuine goats as of inesti-
mable value, not only as badge of dignity:
but as the peculiar and distinctive append
age and index of the genuine goat race.
| That mankind have, with one consent, in
all ages, recognised and respected this pri-
vilege; and have, accordingly, even for
borne to shave, shear or clip the chlns OF
your memorialiSts, or in any manner to
modest them in the enjoyment of the privi-
lege aforesaid. Nay, so sacred has this
vested right of your memoriallsts ever been
held, that the most despotic and arbitrary
princes Of Europe, Asia, Africa and Amerl-
ca, in every age, who respected no other
right of person or property, have scrupu-
lousy forborne to invade or usurp this.
And for the truth Of these averments, they
avouch authentic history, ancient and mo-
dern.
Your memorialists further show that this
venerable appendage to the chlns OF goats
of the genuine race has, within few years
past, become an object of inordinate ambi-
ton to a spurious breed of hairy animals,
who, as your memorialists are informed
and believe, belong to a m0ngreJ race Of
goats, who are not entitled to any partlcl-
patton in the privilege. That the said mon
grels, nevertheless, moved by envy, and in
stigated by the devil, have unIawfully, inju-
riously, and in derogation of the rights of
your memoriaIists, assumed and usurped
their privilege aforesaid, to the great scan
dial and disparagement of the genuine race
of goats-wi;h whom, as plainly appears,
the said mongrels are anXiously endeavor-
ing to identify themselves, and become a
malgamated.
In consideration Of all which premises,
your petitioners pray that an act Of Con
gress may be passed forthwith for their relief,
making the usurpation of which they com
plain felony without benefit of clergy-or,
at the least, subjecting the offenders, on
conviction, to be shaved with ignominy by
the public executoner.
And your petitioners, as in duty bound,
will ever pray, sc.

GOVERNMENT OF THE THoUGHTs.-You
esteem it dreadful thing to be obliged TO
live with persons who are passionate and
quarrelsome. Y ou undoubtedly Judge right.
it is like living in house that is on fire
Dismiss, therefore as soon as may be, all
angry and wrathful thoughts. They canker
the mind, and dispose it to the worst temper
in the world, that of fixed malice and re-
venge. Never recall the ideas or ruminate
upon past injuries and provocations. This
is the amusement Of many in their solitary
hours, but they might as we'll play with
cannon balls or thunderbolts. They may
work themselves up to destruction-to hate
everything and everybody; and to hate the
temper and disposition ofthe Destroyer him
self Anger may steal into the heart of
wise man, but rests only in the bosom of
fools. Make the most candid allowance for
the offender; consider his natural temper;
turn your anger to pity; regard him as i'll
of very bad distemper.-Dr. Horn.

LIBERTY.--The "Razor-Strop Man" says
when he got acquainted with strong drink
it promised to do great many things for
him. 1t promised him liberty and he got
liberty. He had the liberty to see his toes
poke out Of his boots; the water had the
liberty TO 60 in at the toes and get out al
the heels; his knees had the liberty to
come out of his pants; his elbows had the
liberty to come out of his coat; he had
the liberty to lift the crown of his hat and
scratch his head without taking his hat off.
Not only liberty he got, but music. When
he walked along on windy day,
The crown of his hat went fpperty flap,
And the wind whistled, Chow do you do.''

MANGE.-1'his is a cutaneous disease
1t is contagious, for in large flock if one
animal be taken with it, it is seldom any
escape. Its appearance is indicated by a
scurf on the skin, attended with itching and
inflammation, causing an inclination in the
animal affected to rub. Some contend thai
it is occasioned by kind Of aninaa1cWzd
which lodges in the skin, usually attacking
those animals that are low in flesh. In or
der efectualIy to cure this troublesome dis
ease, it is necessary in. the fist place tho
roughly to eradicate the scurf, after which
the following application may be made, and
repeated every two or three days until the
cure is effected.
Spirits of terpentine three-fourths Of q
pound sulphur (Rowers) half pound; train
oil sufficient to make the above into thin
paste, when mixed.

DISPEMPER.

This is term which when applied to
cattle is used in very vague and general
sense-indeed, if COW is suffering from
any disease which there is a difficulty in
classifying, she is said to have the diStem-
per. But there is malady which is very
common and very fatal to cattle in this part
OF the country, which is marked by such
uniformity of. circumstances as clearly to
identify 1t, and entitle it to a name of It's
own. The symptoms Of this disease are a
general dropping, loss of appetite, and
high fever; the head hangs, the eyes run
water and the urine is frequently bloody /;
in three or four days the animal falls from
weakness seldom to rise again. From this
disease all animals brought from the upper
country, or in fact from almost any local
lty around about us, into this neighborhood,
Iare almost sure to suffer; if they can be
brought safely through the first summer,
they seem to get accimated and do tole-
rably we'll; but unless kept constantly
housed, there is not one in twenty that ever
survives the summer solstice. So we'll is
this curious fact understood, that a mich
COW from the upper country, even from
Albemarle or Orange, that would otherwise
bring in the Richmond market seventy-fve
or one hundred dollars, cannot be sold for
more than eighteen or twenty. This cir
cumstance, by which he is limited to a Sc
lection in his own immediate neighborhood,
is as inconVenent to the citizen of Rich
mond as it is injurious to the breeder of the
highlands.
Many specifics for this disease, as salts,
calomel, SC, have been published from
time to time, but we have never until lately
heard of any remedy that could be relied
on. From several sources we have been
assured that lime-water is a sovereign cure,
even in the last stages of this disease. Pour
half bushel of water upon half peck of
quick lime, let it stand until the lime settles
and the water is clear; then pour off the
water and drench the animal with quart
twice day, until she entirely RECEIVERS.
The first dose affords great relief, and three
or four are generally sufficient TO effect a
cure.
One gentleman informs us that, desiring
to stock his farm with mountain cattle, he
lost several hundred dollars in the attempt,
until he was advised to throw barrel of
lime occasionally into the pool made in
little running stream at which his cattle are
regularly watered. BY this wholesale way
of dealing with the disease, he has for Sc
veral years been enabled to defy it, and now
buys the best cattle he can get, without re-
gard to the place Of their nativity.
