collie AND BOTS IN HORSES,

writer in the Southern Planter (Thos.
J. Randolph recommends large dose Of
laudanum or a weak solution of lye, for
collie in horses. When the distension is
such as to indicate dangerous accumula.
ton of air, the medicine for hoyen cattle,
viz: 2 drachms of chloride of lime, dissolv.
ed in two quarts of water, to be. repeated
within an interval of an hour, would proba-
bly, be found efectual. This writer also
states that the generally received notion Of
the action of bots, or grubs, on the stom-
ach of the horse, is entirely erroneous; and
quotes the authority of some distinguished
veterinarians of Europe, as follows:
"The bots cannot, while they inhabit
the stomach of the horse, give the animal
any pain, for they are fastened on to the
cuticular or insensible coat They cannot
be injurious to the horse, for he enjoys the
most perfect health, while tue cuticular coat
of the stomach is filled with them. They
cannot be removed by medicine, for they
are not in that part Of the stomach to which
medicine is conveyed; and if they were,
their mouths are too deeply embedded in the
mucus for any medicine that can be safely
administered to affect them." -.s.ss..
Mr.. Randolph, also remarks: eff the
horse is opened the moment he dies, they
are never found to have attacked the
stomach. If he is killed suddenly in health
and lies until he is cold, they are found
always to have eaten through the stomach.
The bots are licked off by the horse and
carried with the food into the stomach,
where they attach themselves firmly, by
means of hook on each. side Of the
mouth; TO the mucus membrane. When
full grown they pass out with the food, bur.
row in the ground and transform into the fly.
When the horse dies and his food fails, it is
probably instructive in them to cut their way
out. In a horse that died from an inaamma-
ton of the stomnch, the mucus coat having
extensively separated they were found gath
cred upon the sound parts which they had
cut through, the inaamed portion having. no
traces of injury from them. In supposing
that grubs are disease of the horse, we
have attributed effects duringlife to causes
happening after death-and what anostrnms
have been forced down the throatIcofstbe
poor horse, to cure this imaginary disease,
and with what confidence. has the stomach,
perforated after death by the grubs; been
shown as the cause Of death.!"'5 '.7%tsi =

TRUE FRIENDSHIP.

Why is it that OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
edlfriends are so rare? Why SO like angels
visits" few and far betwcenw Alas that
true friendship is more rare than it should
be for the good of mankind. We daily
hear high protestations of friendship one
for another Isit true-pure-exalted dis.
interested friendship! Is it not too often e
selfish sentiment that seeks emolument and
promotion at the shrine of the rich and in
fuential! Alas! The weakness and selfish
propensities of our natures! We daily see
and hear men and women exclaim =" he
or she is one Of my dearest friends !'-and
perhaps at the same time in, the bosom of
both are left envyings, chickering's and heart
burnings. How seldom true friendship ex-
lists between individuals moving together in
the higher and more aristocratic circles Of
life! How seldom one is found here who
acts and speaks the true feelings of his
heart without assimilation Far, far more
often is the priceless gem found in the cot
tage Of the humble and lowly. True
friendship is gem of priceless yalue--one
that is not sufficiently esteemed until it is
Iost-it is hallowed fame that purifes the
temple where it dwelleth and elevates the
soul to relationship with Angels! You,
my reader, have one you call a friend
will you act wisely and show yourself
worthy of his confdence-of true-pnsul-
lied friendshipa May you act "the better
part" and appreciate the inestimable worth
OF. true friend Your. relationship is a
tender one; be- careful that you perform no
act that will send a pang Of sorrow, or a
thrillof chilling pain to the bosom that re-
lies on you-wound not the heart that trusts
you, and daily offers at your shrine the
haEowed incense of pure friendship. 10
our mind it is crime and one that gives
evidencelof vile heart, to wound the con-
fiding trust of pure affection. How many
have experienced the truth of this when it
was too late--too late to recall and repent
. the error. of the past--when the dark grave
held in trust the remains of a true friend
that had died and not felt the pang of
wounded trust and affections unmitigated
died with the wound Embellishments

PLOUGH DEEP!
BY wM. GLAND BOURNE.
Ho Yeoman! turning up the sod
Thrust with your might the sharpened blade
Turn up, turn up the heavy clod,
And find the treasures underlaid!
Not on the surface lies the boon
Not where the skinming idlcr plays;
Bring to the genial heat of noon
The richer, soil to catch the rays!
Plough deep! Plough deep!
Give to thy sinewy arm the will
Givc'to thy toiling hand the might
Wealth buried deep shall come TO FIJI
The hands Of him who tolls Alright.
Turn up, turn up the under soil;
Turn to the light, the air, and sky;
\ large reward repays his toll
Who delvetll deep where treasures lie!
Plough deep! Plough deep
Ho! Deliver in the boundlcss field
Where Truth lies waiting to be won!
otpriceless treasures viii she yield,
While yet the task is just begun.
Turn up, turn up, with patient hand,
The deeper soil that hides the gold,
And rubies with the glittering sand
: Thy longing eyes shall soon behold.
Plough deep! Plough deep!
Ho Battler with the old time wrongs!
Ho! Laborcr for the rights of Man!
Cheer your bold hearts with boldcr songs,
And toll for Freedom while you can.
Turn up, turn up, beneath the walls,
Foundations lying broad and deep,
Till dome with pillar PROSTATE falls,
In dust and ruin long to sleep.
Pough deep! Plough deep!

Ho! Toilcr in our mighty agc
Before thee lies tic open plain,
In whose great strife thou canst engage.
Turn up, turn up the pregnant Garth!

| thereby largely increased. France and Belgium
are both protective, and our trade with them
grows steadily; but with Turkey, the land of
free trade, it does not grow the reason for which
is thus stated by M. KcssUTH:
.Honest Turkey, anxious to progress, but be-
tween whom and her own civilization, as between
whose trade and you, (the trade of five and twenty
millions,) the obstructive hand Of Russian dplo-
macy menaces and interposes."
The difficulty with Turkey is precisely the
same as that which exists with Ireland and In
dia, Canada and the West Indies, and all other
countries that submit to British Intervention be-
tween the producer and the consumer-the
object of which is to compel the people of the
earth to employ themselves in the product Of
food and other raw materials for the supply Of
Birmingham and Manchester, and to agree to
call this system free trade. British interyen-
tion has far more to do with the weakness Of
Turkey than has that of Russia; and, SO long as
it is permitted to continue, she must continue
weak, as must all nations that agree to be COM
PEELED to confine themselves to the single pur-
suit of agriculture.
M. KossUTH is an advocate of municipal in
sttntisns, and of British free trade; and yet
wherever the latter is established the former dis
appears. He opposes Capitalization; and yet the
essence of British free trade is found in the es-
tabishment of perfect commercial Capitalization.
To examine into these and other fallacies of his
various addresses would, however, occupy more
time and space than we can now give to them.
and we therefore close with 4 recommendation
to our fellow citizens TO bear in mind that in
tervention means war-that war brings with it
armies, fleets, taxation, and Capitalization
and that Capitalization Is despotlsm. For So.
venty years we have maintained the policy Of
peace and abstinence from all "entangling al
liances," and during all that time the cause Of
freedom has profted by our example; while
Great Britain has been as steadily intervening
in support of what she was pleased to call
freedom, although Ireland, by her side, was
the scandal of the world; and what are now
the relative positions of the two coun-
tries? The one is strong, and grows daily
stronger; the other is weak, and grows daily
weaker as she expels her population. The
hopes of England are now centred in an ALI
ance with the so lately despised America
plundered as the latter has 50 often been by aid
of Rules of SO and Orders IN Council, and in
suited as she frequently has been by the impress
ment of her citizens, on the ground that all the
people Of the world who found themselves on
the ocean were to be considered British sub
iects unless they could prove themselves to be
otherwise. Let us continue in our present
course, and the day will not be far distant
when we shall be able to establish our own
rights, and those of the rest of the world, on
the ocean; and it will then be quite early
enough TO discuss the propfie,y Of intervention
for the security of the rights Of others on the
distant land.
