nienOe. Exposure to wet and filth, will
often produce them; aud they are in some
measure similar to the footrot in sheep
At the same time they are more controla-
bic and subservient to appropriate reme-
dies. When the properties of the frog,
the seat Of this disorder, are considered, no
surprise can exist that they should be very
frequently the predisposing source of foot
lameness. The thrush may be briefly de-
scribed as an ichorous, footed, and corro-
sive discharge, proceeding from the frogs.
When this exists for any length of time
in the foot of a young animal, it interrupts
the ordinary secretions and development
Of the sensible frog; by its discharge, it
promotes absorption, causing the internal
part to assume an unhealthful degree Of
hardness or consistency, and thereby af-
fects its elasticity. The frog, it must be
observed, is destined to prevent conclusion,
which in its healthy state is admirably
adapted for; but ifitis injured, so that its
character and nature are changed, when
the horse is put to work, soreness of the
feet ensues, and often inflammation, which
gradually increasing, the animal becomes
quite lame, and is therefore nearly useless
As attention to the feet of horses involves
the necessity of handling, and such famil-
iarity will render them docile and tracta
bic, two important objects are secured.

For the True American.
Mother wilt Thou watch over me !

Ny mother, from that bllssful land on high,
Thy glorious home beyond the starry sky;
Look down and watchmy erring footsteps still
And teach my heart, to do my SaviOur's will.
Although:this earth appears both bright and
fair.
'Tis sad to be bereft Of fond mothers care;
For life is full Of sorrows, cares and fears
And at the best this world is but vale Of
tears.
Long years are passed since thou was called
from me,
But OIL my mother, still my corunSellor be.
For thou didst teach me in my early youth,
To prize, the ways Of virtue, love and truth.
I've struggled hard sincs thou hast gone t o
rest.
My mother, and long upon the earth's cold
breast,
Within the silent grave, olay my head, and be
Forever with my Saviour-and with thee.
Then oh my mOther-at tho Evenings holy
hour"
When thoughts Of thee, come DER me with a
soothing power,
Let thy sweet spirit from thy happy home
above,
Float down and be my guardian angel, love.
Say mother wilt thou watch my wandering
feet,
That when lifc's cares are O'er--l thee may
meet;
Within that land Of joy where spirits sing.
The praises of their Saviour and their King

BENEFITS OF PUNcTUALITY.-On the
occ sion of the Queen of Spain going from
Madrid to her palace to the Escurial, du-
ring last month, a conspiracy had been
formed to assassinate her, as she came from
the church of the Atocha, where the Queen
always goes to pay her devotions to the
the Virgin, prior to her departure from
the Capitol. General 0'Dounell having
got wind of the conspiracy, hurried her
Majesty off punctual to the advised houl
of departure, and the conspirators, know
ing that, according to the universal habits
of ladies', whether democratic or imperial
her Majesty was generally from one to two
hours behind time, found when they arri.
we'd dagger in hand, that their anticipated
vi ctim was beyond their reach, and safely
on her way to her country palace. From
this, then, "dear ladies'" learn lesson o
punctuality,

From IowA.-A letter from Linn coun-
ty, in the Baltimore Clipper, has the fol-
lowing news
In the result of the election which took
place on Monday last, Che 9th inst, for
county judge, treasurer, recorder, sheriff,
surveyor, and coroner, Sans men were in

linn county, Sam has more friends away
here in the Far West than you are likely
to suppose. He numbers some thirty
thousand in this State, andstill they come.

ing:

whole American ticket by an average ma
jority of about So votes.
