L togel Way of Holding a Horse.

A gentleman travelling through Ger.
many. thus describes a novel method of
fastening horse which he saw put ia
practice by German blacksmith:--.
As soon us breakfast WAS over, gen
orally enjoyed the luxury of riding about
town, and in passing the shop OF black
smith, the manner in which hc tackled
and shod a vicious horse amused me-
On the outside of the wall of the house,
two rings were firmly fixed, to one OF
which the patients head was fastened
close to the ground; the hind foot to be
shod stretched out to the utmost extent of
the leg, was then secured by the other
ring about five feet high, by cord which
passed through eIoven hitch, fixed to
the root Of the poor creatures tail. The
hind foot was consequently very much
higher than the head; indeed, il was quite
exalted, and pulled so heavily at the tail,
that the animal seemed to be quite anx-
ious TO keep his other foot on terra fima.
With one foot in the heavens, it did not
suit him to kick; with his nose pointing
to the Internal regions, he could not con.
veniently rear; aud rs heavy band war
constantly pulling at his tail, the horse
at last gave up the point and quietly sub

OF the Messrs. Chalk, in this village, were

flames extend, that it was impossible to

several hundred bushels of wheat DESTROY

thousand doIIars-no insurance. The loss
is heavy to the Messrs. Chalk, who are in
