which it is stated occurred on the
western road, near Worcester, sever
al years since:
An old man who had been in town
on business, and imbibed pretty free.
ly, was returning home in the even
ing, in his wagon, and losing bis
reckoning, permitted his horses to
take the railroad track. Jogging
along leisureIy, it was not long be-
fore a train Of cars overlook him,
and, the locomotive striking the
wagon, sent the old man aauking,
and killed the horses, without, how
ever, injuring the man. The train
was stopped and the conductor re-
turned to ascertain the damage. As
be approached the scene OF the acci-
dent he inquired of the old man if he
was much hurt.
"Hurt?" be replied, "no, but I'd
like to know what in thunder you're

EPIDEMIC AMONG HORSES.

In the New England States, and
throughout the West, an epidemic is
said to be prevalent among the hors-
es. The disease is described as CON-
mencing without any other warning
than little weakness and loss of ap-1
petite; soon the animal becomes so
weak that on urging him to walk
across the stable, he reels as in delir-
ium, and if hurried, or handled
roughly he is liable to fall. The
eyes and eye lids have a languid ap-
pearlnce, resembling those of a horse
Iaboring under influenza. The MEM
branes OF the mouth are also red
dened, yet have more marked tinge
of yellow than those of the eye. The
tongue is generally coated with a
white or brown fur, and the breath is
fetid. The yellow tinge Of the sur
face is indicative of functional de-
rang amant of the liver The men,
branes of the nasal passage are con
gested, and sometimes there is Slight
discharge Of visceus matter from the
nostrils. The respirations are more
or less laborious and accelerated, and
the least muscular movement will
augment both arteriaI and respiratory
actions. There is generally some
soreness of throat, enlargement of the
thyroid glands, accompanied by {
slight cough. The pulse is almos
always irregular and feeble; the nose
ears, limbs, and tail are cold; the
urine and the faces are both scanty
and foetid. Such are The prominent
symptoms Of the disease; they may
both vary in duration and intensity
but the symptoms as above described
are generally present during its early
stage. An eminent veterinary sur
geon calls the disease typhus fever
and says if properly treated it may
be easily cured. A correspondent
of the Western Agriculturist statei
that he had horse attacked in thi
manner, and he had medicines admin
istered to him such as would be re
commended to man afflicted Will
the same symptoms His horse go
well, while numbers of his neighbors
horses not so treated, died.
