Collins, upon the subject of casualties by light ming, arguing to show that barns in or near which manure heaps or newly ygath,tei crops fcrmcn' : ing, are much more frequently struck by lightning than are all other buildings put toscticr As pro lection to houses it has been recommended that ,h hc ventilated before and closed during tempest. that lightning might not be attracted by the ascend ing vapor. That vapor ascending by day and not by night rendered buildings fer during tempest by night than by day. The writer says that of eight CT ten casualties by lighthins in New York and the adjoining towns, all have ocurretl in the day timc and all, with one exception, have been barns with manure heaps fermcnting near them. and in wh'c several horses have been killed. standing of course near those manure heaps. The excepted building was a sawmll, beside which lay ,fermcnting saw dust and chip-dung of years accumulation, and some of recent origin, and upon which rubbish was piled to near half the height of the building The lightning struck opposite the rubbish, and |. large portion passed out near it.

ss2s Ses Tar Hoo CHOLERA The Buffalo Republic, referr Ing to the maiady that has prevailed among hogs r the Ohio valley, says:
 The same malady seems 10 have prevailed extcn- sixe!y h the adjoining states. In Western New aork especially VIC learn 1t hS been very fatal, but extensive dealers in the neighborhcod, day two sincc, he Informed us that about six weeks ago he inst 460 in very short space of time. dstiller in Jordan, during the month of September, lost 400 Which cost him in addition $l 000 to have them buried. In Rochester at all the principal points. oven among the farmers the mortality exceeded anything ever heard of. Butcher in this city not long since, purchased $500 worth of fat hogs, but they died so rapidly his hands that he scarcely realized $76 on his investment. .5, =
 In this quarter the disease appears to have been coAnned to particular class of hogs, but to have prevailed among all classes indiscrtmiratcly y-corn fed still-fed and grass-fed, have fared alike The fateest however. to have been more susceptible than others. When first attacked, the hog appears 10 fall rapdiy away. Soon the skin about th: neck and ears assumes a purplish hue, and ge.erally in ab,nt an hour the hog was dead, after which thc cutire carcass became purple the lungs, liver and kidneys, on examination, were found to be lihe sponge in their appearance. but nothing ilke tic symptoms of cholera have been noticed in this rien ity. In the neighborhood of Cincinnatti, i is said that the disease appears to have assumed the form o erysipelas in the throat
 All efforts at finding remedy which shoul prove at least efectual in staying the rayages of the epl demic. have thus failed. In this quarter, however. the dsease appears to have ceased it's ravascs some four or five weeks ago but it is not improbable that it will return again another season. and in the time it's origin and progress should be investigated Whether the subject is of sufficient importance to call for legislative interference in regulating the sale of pork we shall not attemt to decide, We presume every person will consult hs asx in pork in this respect .s-..
 We regret to learn that this fatal disease has pre- vailed in this vicinity and that it has not yet ceased its ravages. Mir HurBt, the superintendent of our county poor house. informs us that they have lost large numbsr of hogs by it. at that establishment. during the past year, and they have continued toI die up to within the past fortnight.
