OF the farmers on Long Island can testify. The
bones are carefully picked out from among the mass
Of flesh, and placed in heap by themselves until
they are sufficiently decomposed to be used also as
manure. Sometimes they accumulate so rapidly
that pile of several hundred tons weight is formed
In few months. This bone manure is sold in every
part OF the State, and is much priced by agricuI-
tursts on account Of the great length of time it re-
tains its fertilizng properties when buried in the
SOIL There is part Of the body Of horse that is
not converted to some useful purpose. The hoofs
are manufactured into Prussian blue, and glue is
also made from them; while even the nails of the
shoes, told make the best description of rifle
barrels. The bones when calcined are also used in
refining sugar
Besides the steamboat, there are sloopsalso
in removing dead animals from the city, all of which
are constantly employed during the summer. This
is the most unpleasant season Of the year for those
who are occupied in this business. That portion of
the island upon which the factory is built, swarms
with flies Of every variety from the largest descrip
ton OF blue bottle to the most dminutive nudge and
the heaps of decaying animal matter are literally
alive with magots. This is not very pleasant pic
ture, but STILL uninvtng as the clone, barren ise'
appears the families of those employed in the facto-
ries live it, despite Of both odor and flies. The
fresh breeze which sweeps over it from the ocean,
purifes the atmosphere and renders it perfectly
wholesome, that even those who work in the fac
tory itself said to enjoy good health Altogether
Barren Island is one Of great Importance and could
not well be dispensed with as the condition Of our
city before its discovery has satisfactorily proved.

AN ACCOUNT OF THE GREAT HORSE MAR
KET AT THE BULLS HEAD.

AN ACCOUNT OF THE GREAT HORSE MAR
KET AT THE BULLS HEAD
The principal horse market in New York is at
Bulls Head on the corner of Twenty fourth street
and Third avenue. 1t consists Of about fifteen sta
bles, all of which are capable Of containing from
ffteen hundred to two thousand horses. There are
no regular market days. nor IL there general mart
mt which the animals exposed for sale, each deal
rr preferrng to sell from his own stable. The ave-
rage number disposed of daily, during the year, is
estimated at hundred, but there are some days,
when The business is particularly brisk, that two
hundred are sold Some of the stables arc admirably
arranged and fitted up for the accommodation Of the
.horses They are perfect curiosities in their way,
and would well repay VISIT II any of our readers
should have desire to see them. A large number
arc constructed Of stone and present an exterior of
no ordinary architectural prctensions The interior
of all is very much alike, the same order and
arrangement being pretty generally observed in
zach. The stalls are so constructed that an al
.ley-way is left between each row, and this is
provided with a drain to carry off oil the
sOrure. There appears to be no distinction made in
the treatment Of the animals so far as the general
quality Of their food and their accommodations
concerned. The bobtaied horse Is placed on per-
feet equality with the horse which has been more
favored in the proportions Of his caudal extremities
Some indeed are often curtaed Of their fair proper
stiOns 10 suit the perverted tastes of their owners.
This involves an operation of considerable annoy
asnce to the poor animal. The hair Is cut short or
.socked, and the tendons Of the tail severed, after
which it is turned up, and kept in a reversed posi-
zion by means Of a cord tied to the ceiling This
process gives the tail peculiar set which 1t ever
after retains. The growth Of the hair, we believe,
js arrested by cerng the skn but in some cases this
cruel practice is not rcsorted TO- the owner preferrng
TO cut it when it becomes too long. With horses
That are required for particular kinds OF work this
process is considered very necessary as i prevents
the tail from becoming entangled in the harness.
Ia the summer tune bob-talea horses sufl~
