Gov. REEDER addressed large audience at Detroit
few evenings since. After rehearsng the story of
the Kansas outrages, he concluded as follows:
Meetings and resolutions are so much time
thrown away. They accomplish nothing they
save no mans life but while you are passing
them the slave power is growing, and planning
and carrying its plans into effect. If the
North is to do anything to defer these schemes
which are damning not only Kansas, but all
the Territories behind her, it must act, and
act promptly. The issue has been raised, and
must be met and now is the timc-the place
is the plains Of Kansas He did not propose
to organize hostile force to take reasonable
grounds against the government nor was it
OF any use to send few emigrants there to be
robbed and murdered, as others had been He
said it was necessary for the great and wealthy
North to raise s., 900, 900, in order that 0 600
men Of character, with strong hearts aud strong
hands, might be placed upon these fertile plains
as actual settlers, and be provisioned for one
year. That number once there, determined
to maintain their rights, there would be no
more disturbance no more murders and no
more border rufians in Kansas. The North
could do it and though it would cause some
sacrifice from individuals, it would he nothing
compared with what had been suffered by the
settlers of that Territory The great interests
Of the North and Of the Union, and of every
individual, demand it, and he hoped there would
he no pause in the movement till Kansas and
the empire behind her should be redeemed from
pro-slayrry ruflians.

s0 Sheep are liable to con-
tract colds when compelled to lie
upon damp, unwbolesome ground
IN wet seasons; also from autumn
nal fogs, when confined to such

fines them in damp, ioggy, and

upon this point:
lean tell You how any man
may know within half an inch,
the height a colt will attain to
when full grown. The rule may
not hold good in every instance,
but in niue cases out Of ten it
will. When the colt gets to be
three weeks old, or as soon as it
is perfectly Strengthened in its
limbs, measure from the edge Of
the hair on the hooS to the mid
die Of the first joint, and for eve
Try inch, it willgrow to the height
Of hand Of four inches, when its
growth is matured. Thus, il the
distance be found 16 inches, il
will make a horse 10 hands high.
By this means, a man may know
something Of what sort of a
horse, with proper care, he IS to
expect from his colt. Three
years ago, ! bought two very
shabby looking colts for twenty
dollars each, and sold them recent
