Messrs. A. G. Bragg & Col had a yalu-
able horse that about three weeks since was
wounded severely in his thigh with sharp
hook, opening cash three inches in length
and an inch or moro deep. l tried various
articles to heal it, but Inflammation getting
into it caused large quantities Of matter to
collect, and the limb was quite stiff. A
friend Of mine asked me if I had tried the
Mustang Lin5mcnt, to which l replied in the
negative, but thinking it would do some
good was induced to try it. l had only used
one half bottle when the inflammation began
to be removed, and the wound to heal. Now
it is entirely healed and the hair is growing
over the wound, making it look as we'll as
ever. Hoping that others may be benefited
by a trial of your valuable compound, l re-
main yours, CUAS. E. WHITEHOUSE.

We take great pleasure in recommending
the Mexican Mustang Lininent to all our
friends and customers as the best article we
have ever used for sores, sprains, OF gals in
horses. We have used it extensively, and
always efectually. Some of our men have
also used it for severe bruises and sores, as
we'll as rheumatic pains, and they all say it
acts like magic-we can only say that we
have entirely abandoned the use efany other

In justice to the proprietors, and for the
benefit of the afflicted, 1 feel it my duty to
state publicly, the remarkable cures that
have been effected in my family by the use
of the Mustang Lininaent. A Negro Of mine
had what was called Bone Felon, or whit
low on her middle finger; the pain was most
intense and excruciating. The Inflammation
had been so extensive that the whole finger
had almost become a mass Of corruption, and
the only hope of saving her hand, and per-
haps her life, appeared to have it cut off. AS
her general health was very delicate, the
physician advised us to try the Mustang
Lisiment a few days, till she could be sent to
a surgeon in Columbus, as it could do no
harm and might prevent modification. To
tho astonishment Of the doctor, and myself,
the pain soon ceased, the Inflammation subsi-
ded, and the wound rapidly healed. The
finger is now perfectly well and sound! One
of my boys was severely burned. The skin
was entirely taken off from the knee to the
ankle. The Mustang Lininaent was freely
applied, and nothing else was used. The
relief and cure was almost beyond belief
but a short time elapsed before the wounds
were perfectly healed. consider it an in
valuable remedy, and it should be in every
family and on every plantation.

PRESERVING FRUIT IN BOTTLES
Strawberries, rasberries, blackberries
currants, peaches, i'll fact any fruit, may
be preserved in air-tight bottles, SO as
to retain its natural favor, with but lit
lie labor or expense. The following is
an excellent mode:
Fill the bottles quite full with fruit
not quite ripe; place them, with the
corks put lightly into them, with cold
water up to the necks, and gradually
raise the temperature of the water to
100 deg. and not exceeding 40 deg.
Fair. Keep them at this temperature
half an hour then take each out sepa-
rately, and fill it up with boiling water
from kettle to within an inch of the
cork; drive in the cork firmly, tie il
over and dip it Immediately into bottle
wax, and lay the bottle down on its side,
to keep the cork always damp. To pre-
vent fermentation, turn each bottle half
round twice or thrice week for two or
three weeks; after that they will need
no further care. The corks should be
soaked in water two or three days before
being used.
Another mode is to tie the corks be-
fore putting the bottles in the water
The heat expels the air from the fruit
As soon as the bottles are cool enough
apply the sealing wax. The secret con
sists in exhausting the air from the bot.
ties, and making the corks air-tight.

FARM Locomotive ENe1NEs.-It is
thought by distinguished English Ag-
riculturist, Mr.. Meche, that steam pow
er must soon be generally used on farms.
The farm locomotive engines have been
rapidly introduced in England during the
last three years; they cost about ST.
600. The Marquis Of Tweeddale has
succeeded in working ploughs by steam
power. This is an excellent invention
for Western Prairics, when whole farm
could thus be ploughed in a day, at a
great saving Of labor and expense.
