SORES ON HORSES AND CATTLE.-A
correspondent of the Maine Farmer, in reply
to an inquiry by another correspondent for
horses shoulder, gives the following pre-
scription:
Lime and lard are the best application to
old, bad sores, of any kind, that know, es-
pecially if the bone is any way affected.
Take good stone lime, slake dry and sift
through fine sieve. Put the -four in a
bottle, cork tight, and keep it in dark place
from the light and air, and it will keep good
for years. Take one part Of lime to three
parts of lard in bulk and mix them well,
cold and apply proper quantity to the sore
twice day, and cleanse we'll each time with
soap suds. If the sore descends below the
outward opening, it must be opened to the
bottom, or it will not heal sound. If the
bone be affected, the sore probably will not
heal till the bone shall be healed. Sores
healed under this treatment always heal
sound. If fungus be in the sore, this oint-
ment will clear it all out, and keep it out.
The above proportions are about right, but
the applicant will soon learn to vary them if
necessary. Some allowance will be necessa-
ry for the different strength of the lime.

sAnd why?' inquired Thalberg, in aston

For a moment the thirsty musician was

sWather, tay and coffee
go and send me the proprietor! said Thai
berg; Il will speak with him.
sYe may slake till the day of doom, but
veil find it of no use, was Pats muttered
observation as he left the room.
Ina few moments the landlord entered the
apartment. His lips were closely set togeth-
er and frown was on his brow. He was
evidently astonished that the foreigner
should persistiu his wish to. contravene the
rules of the establishment
Meanwhile Thalberg had occupied him
self in opening piano that stood in the
room. 1t was not of the newest class, but
was tolerably in tune. As the proprietor OF
the Temperance Hotel entered the chamber,
he began to play. First the frown gradual
ly vanished from the brow of the landlord
then his lips unelosed, and finally relaxed
into smile. When the artist had concu-
ded, he waited for word, but none came.
Without turning round, he said to himself
The man is obstinate. I musttry him
with something else
He accordingly began his Tarentella:
Ere it was half finished he heard the rat
Ting of bottles and glasses on the table, and
wheeled round. Pat had re-entered with
the bottle of champagne.
I thought it was not allowed said Thai
berg.
Faith and he'll give ye dozin if ye
like it. He says man that can kpock mu-
sic out of piano in yer way may git'dhrunk
every night if he chooses to. So there it is
for ye?

Ye Sons of Temperance, wake to glory!
Hark, bark, what myriads bid-you rise;
Your children, wives and grand sres hoary,
Behold their tears and hear their cries;
Shall hateful rum shops, mischiefs breeding,
With drunken mobs, ruffian band,
Besot and desolate the land
While Temperance and Law lie bleeding?
Toarms! to arms! ye brave
The avenging sword unsheath
March on, march on, all hearts resolved
On liberty or death
Oh Temperance can man resign thee,
Once having fek thy rennobliug flame?
Can Whiskey, Gin, or Rum confne thee,
Or thy progressive spirit tame?
Too long the world has wept, bewailling
That mis'ry's shafts the Rum shops WELD;
But Temperance is our sword and shield,
And all their arts are unavailing.
To arms! to arms! ye brave
The Temperance sword unsheath;
March on, march on, oil hearts resolved
On liberty or death
