HoRsEs' FEET BALLIsG WITH SEow.-A
correspondent Of the Spirit of the Times asks
bow to prevent snow balling in a horses
foot-and the editor responds: 'Soft soap
made with wood-ashes is, in Canada West,
invariably rubbed on the soles ofhorses' feet,
which causes them Immediately to cast the
snow theTefrom Let this be done Just pre-.
paratOrily to sleighing. Each time that the
horses may be shielded during q days sleigh
ride, it will be necessary to renew the ap-
plication of the soft soap, as their standing

TESTING SEED CoRE.-A correspondent of
the Nebraska Farmer, after describing his
method of selecting seed corn in the field in
Autumn, and keepingit in a moderately warm
dry place in Winter, says that in the Spring
he tests 1t as follows: SHE rolls or wraps
each ear in paper twists the little end, aud
shears off the paper at the big end down
even with the ear. He then draws out the
ear carefully and shells il. If the shslled
corn of any ear does not fill the paper, it is
rejected. In this way he sorts out the heavy
kerneled and small cob grades, and is i'm

NEW YoRK DRY-GooDs MARKEr.-Friday's
Tribune says of the New York Dry-Goods
Market during the past week:
The activity in the Dry Goods department
noticed last week has been lost, and we have
to report q dull market. The chief causes
may be attributed 10 the general desire To
determine the results of the policy of the
present Administration, as ~foreshadowed In
the Inaugural Address-ahd the general
withdrawal of the Southern trade, which.
bad been excited by their new tariff ar
engagements.
Aside from the want of confidence in the
future, arising from the complication of our
political dificulties--the general aspects of
trade were never more flattering. The con
sumers, as a class, were never better able TO
purchase-and the Foreign demand promises
to be larger than even that of last year;
yet, in the present uncertainty, few respon-
sible parties are willing 10 operate. The i'm
portations are falling off, as compared with
previous years, and the productive capacity
Of our mills has not been increased beyond
the ordinary demands of the trade-and IN
to the first Of the year no accumulated stocks
were observed. 1t can not be concealed,
however, that we have been disappointed in
our trade for the past four months, and
stocks begin TO accumulate, with most styles
not adapted for the export markets.
Unless some change shall take place incur
political condition, these a-ccumulations,
which at present can scarcely be realized,
will become so oppressive that the manufac.
turers will be obliged to suspend operations
entirely. If a restricted production should
be generally adopted at this time, the greater
calamity would be avoided. The discreet
and prudent merchant, in all departments of
trade, is restricting his operations as far as
possible and canceling his engagements.
The English manufacturer, in view of the
troubles in the country, is proposing to work
short time, and why should not our manu-
facturers act as discreetlY. The demand
during the past two weeks for choice styles
of their Woolens has been larger than
noticed for many weeks. Undesirable styles
and inferior fabrics are not wanted we
have had a surplus of such goods during the
whole season.
