Iron Defense.

Iron Defense.
Seeing the great difference that existed
in the texture or hardness of the horn in
horses feet, man in his wisdom, as the sur
face Of the earth changed, found himself
obliged to add another defense besides the
natural one, to preserve the crust of such
feet as were weak, and therefore not so well
able to support them against injuries from
hard substances, as stones, roads, &c
This was the "iron defense" we now term
the shoe. From the good derived out of
this practice, tried and proved on certain
kinds of feet, though it must be allowed
but partial good after all, it is no wonder
that the custom of putting shoes on all
kinds of feet became general in some coun-
tries. Our ancestors, the original shoers,
proposed in their first efforts nothing more
it is presumed, than to preserve the crust
or wall of the hoof from breaking away,
and thought themselves happy that they
had skill enough to accomplish so much
The moderns also are content with this
lowest quality Of the artificial defeuse.
But in process of time the fertility of in.
vention and the vanity of mankind brought
forth variety of methods, almost all of
which are productive Of lameness, and am
thoroughly convinced that nineteen lame
horses out Of every twenty are lame from
the artist, which, again, is owing to the
form Of the shoe, to his ignorance of the
designs of nature and consequent improper
treatment Of the foot, every part whereof
was designed to answer some useful pur-
pose though it thus appears he does not
happen to know it,
But waving all that these modern artists
know or do not know, suppose it will be
universally assented to that whatever
method Of shoeing approaches nearest to
the law or design of nature, such is likely
to be the most perfect method, and as the
feet of different horses differ from each
other, SO if we would arrive at any pertec-
ton in this art, the human reason must be
employed in discovering wherein this diff.
ference consists, and in ascertaining its
degree, that each may be treated according
to its nature, and yet with regard to each
and all some general rules may still be fol.

AN army correspondent relates an incl
dent of camp life, showing the precocity OF
a youth Of sixteen, the son Of General,
on visit to his father in the field. On one
occasion, when the Generals purse was
getting low, he remarked that he would
be obliged to draw on his banker for some
money. "How much do you want, father p
81 think shall send for . couple Of hund-
red" replied the General. "Why, father"
said the son, very quietly, ~ can let you
have that amount" "Xou can let me have
it,! exclaimed the General in surprise,
where did you get so much money ?" 81
won it playing draw poker with your staff,

needless to say that the $40 train mex,
morning bore the "gay young samboler'
towards his home.

w General Jackson in his celebrated
South Carolina message Of January 10th,
1884 used the following language:
The right Of the people of a single State,
to abs0lve themselves at will, and without
the consent of the other States from their
most solemn obligations. and hazard the
liberties and happiness Of the millions com.
posing this Union, cannot be acknowledged.
To say that any State may at pleasure Sc
cede from the Union, is to say that the
United States is not a Nation.
In 1850 Mr.. Lincoln used the language
following:
"Any people anywhere, being inclined,
and having the power. have the right to
rise up and shake off the existing govern
ment. More than this, q majority Of any
portion Of such people may revolutionize,
putting down a minority intermingled with
or near about them who may oppose their
movements.

The McGregor Times urges the import.
ance of railroad connection between that
place and Mineral Point in view of connect
ing with Chicago by way Of the Mineral
Point road. THIS arrangement, to every
appearance practicable, would afford the
cheapest and shortest method by which
Chicago could secure forever an immense
trade Of Central Iowa, as we'll as become
successful competitor with Milwaukee for
that range of Wisconsin trade between
Mineral Point and McGregor, including
nearly forty miles Of prairie country or over
thousand square miles Of fine farm coun-
Try on the east side Of the Mississippi
The distance between Mineral Point and
McGregor is just fifty miles upon an air
line, and the route being near direct upon
the old Military road, there would be but
little departure from direct line the en-
tire distance, except between Mineral Point
and at some point Of intersection with the
old military road few miles west of
Dodgeville. We suppose there would be
the usual difficulties Of descending to the
Mississippi, but then there would be choice
of places to descend at points alsng tho
Wisconsin for many miles before reaching
the mouth of that river nearly opposite
McGregor. The reader will be greatly
aided in his understanding by referring to
the map, which shows most Of the route
upon which a railroad would pass veiy
near as well as special survey of the
route could show. 1t will be seen that
most Of the route would lie along the
ridge which divides the waters of the Wis
eonsin and Mississippi rivers. We ebelievs
there is no break in that entire ridge ex.
cept slight cut at Borah's.-- Grant Go.

LINES TO MIR. AND MRS. KIMBALL,
BY r. z. J. INGERSoLL.


BY F. 2. J. INGERsoLL.
Over the River, the deep, dark River,
Came a messenger grim,
And summoned your Mary, your gentle Mary,
To hasten and so with him;
On her breast you folded her snowy hands,
And robed her in spotless white,
And he bore her over the turbid stream,
To the iar-of realm of Light.
Oh there's beautiful, beautiful realm,
Beyond that flowing river,
Where streams of perpetual blissfulness,
Flow on, and en- forever
And Mary your darling Mary has gone,
To that blessed, blessed land,
While on the verge of the fathomless stream,
With tear-blnded eyes you stand!
All, yes, you weep though you know she is freed
Froms the pains and sorrows OF earth !;
You weep for the sweet loved voice that you'll hea,
No more at your family hearth;
We all must cross over the mystic river
BeSora We enter the land
Where the fragrant flowers Of joy aud love
In fadeless beauty expand.
By-and-by a voice will call, and q hand
Will beckon ye DER the river,
In the unseen world, where parting and tears
Are known no more forever!
All happy land is that realm OF light,
And Mary has gone before
TO welcome thee after little whilo
On its ever tranquil shore.

SOLDIERS LETTERS.

The mail The mail!
And sun burned cheeks and eager eyes
Come crowding round the Captains tent,
Each outstretched hand receives the prize
For fond perusal meant.
Unless distressing news be told,
These letters naught of pain convey,
For friends at home will never scoId
Th. lad that's far away.
The MALL The mail!
And toil-stained palms are closing there
GLOW rough! how very coarsely moulded y
On dainty missive. fresh and fair,
By lily fingers folded.
For kindly thoughts pursue the youth
Who battles with his country's foe,
Nor soiled attire nor guise unc ncouth
Prevents their genial now.
The mail The mail!
A fathers word Of pride and cheer;
mothers trembling admonition
A sisters blessing oh, how dear!
brothers generous wishing.
And many missives frank and bright,
From early friend and neighbor boy;
Each page a volume of delight
brimming cup OF joy.
The mail The mail
And stiffness rules the boisterous throng,
And '.silence half an hour prevails,
The heaven Of those who wait so long
The coming of the mails.
Each reads his own. and these alone,
No soldier seeks to play the spy,
And letters, wheresoever thrown,
Are safe from every eye.

A BIG THING-THE RAvEL-MARTINETTE
TRouPE.-Monsieur Martinette, the mana
ger and agent of the world renowned Raw
el-Martinette Troupe, arrived in this city
last evening, and is making arrangements
to open the Atheneum next week with his
Troupe. The Martinette's are ON their way
to New York, after four years. tour
through California and South America
Their entertainment is of character un-
derstood and appreciated by all nations
civilized and uncivilized, and the people Of
all nations have seen it. Their performan-
ces consist of pantomime, tableaux, ballet
dancing, and the most wonderful gymnas-
tic feats that were ever performed or con-
ceived in the world. They are wonder
unequalled by anything in the show line in
the universe.
They will remain in Columbus for one
week, and will, we predict, draw larger au-
diences than have assembled in the Athe-
neum for many years.

The Secretary of War in Reply to
Gov. Seymour.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 12.-The Secretary of
War has replied to the letter of Gov. Sey-
mour, of the Sd inst, submitting the Re-
port of the Provost Marshal General, which
he trusts will satisfy him. The objections
made against the quota assigned to the
State of New York are not well founded.
The Secretary does not feel authorized tc
appoint Commissioner.
First. Because there Is no fault found
by the Governor with the enrolling officers,
nor any mistake, fraud or neglect on their
part alleged by him, requiring investiga-
tion by Commissioner.
Second. The errors of the enrolment, if
any, can readily be corrected by the Board
of Enrolment established by law for the
correction of the enrolment.
Third. The Commission would not have
nor has the President or Secretary of War
power to change the basis of draft pre-
scribed by the act of Congress.
Fourth. The Commission would operate
to postpone the draft, and perhaps fatally
delay strengthening the armies now in the
field, thus aiding the enemy and endanger
the National Government. Every facility,
he says, will be afforded by the War De-
partment to correct any error or mistake
that may appear in the enrolment, and no
effort will be spared to do justice to the
cities of New York and Brooklyn, and ap-
ply the law with equality and fairness to
every district and in every State.

e.THEaaCITY.

BELLIcusE WEATHER.--The heated term
has developed an extraordinary degree of
pugnacity amongst all classes, and more
than dozen fights occurred yesterday.
The little boys are fighting on every cor
ner and common, apparently at loss for
any other means Of venting the internal
heat engendered by the temperature. Two
fights between men occurred on different
parts of High street about the same time
last evening-damage small. A woman on
the Johnstown road pitched into man
neighbor, and gave him severe thrashing
yesterday afternoon. The denizens of
Water street row had pitched battle
growing out of internal dissension in that
Elysium-result unknown, as the enemy
kept possession of the field; and would re-
ceive no flag of truce. Several other fights
occurred, of which no details have been re-
ceived. No serious damage sustained in
any of the numerous skirmishes.
