CoUGHING HORSES. is well known
that feeding horses on clover hay often
makes them cough, but the why and
wherefore may not be SO generally
known. From observation l have be-
come satisfied that the manner of feed
ing hay to horses is the cause. The
usual custom is to let them draw it
through a rack; thus stripping off the
fine dust which adheres to the stalk,
which, being drawn into the lungs in
respiration, produces the cough. The
cure consists in removing the cause
that is, the racks-and allowing the
animals to take their food in the natural
way. / have removed all of mine, and
now feed my horses on the barn floor,
having breastwork sufficiently high for
them to eat over. In this way they can
be fed on hay without raising a dust,
they get none under their feet, and the
labor of cleaning out managers is saved.
Whatever is left is easily pushed out
with rake into the yard for the cattle
The dust on the hay will do the horses
no harm if taken into the stomach.
Since making the improvement abov'
mentioned in my feeding apparatus,
am not troubled with coughing horses,
There is no patent on my invention. My
brethren can use it freely.-Corespon-
dent Country Gentleman.

LINEN MANUFAcTUREs-Only mod
crate success has thus far attended the
efforts to introduce in this country, on
a more extensive scale, the manufac-
ture of linen. The report of the Gov
ment Commissioners to enquire into the
practicability substituting flax for cot
ton, offered little encouragement but
the agitation fthe subject, in common
with the high price Of the Southern
staple, has no doubt stimulated the
growth Of fax throughout the country.
In Canada, fiax-culture has received
more earnest attention, the crop having
proved high remunerative as compared
with other agricultural products, and is
rapidly growing in Importance. There
are now three linen factories in this
Province; one at Preston, one at Streets
vile, and one at Doon-in each of which
upwards Of two hundred hands find en-
plOyment during the whole year. In
these are manufactured bleached and un-
bleached linen, sheeting, cordage. &c.
and the goods put into market are pro,
nounced equal to the imported There
are also three linseed oil mills, and more
than one hundred scutching mills for
cleansing the fax fibre. Canada papers
speak of the inducements to enlarge this
branch Of industry as very strong, the
seed of the fax-plant paying almost as
much as wheat, to say nothing of the fl

TIE CONVERSION OF SEvEN-THRrIEs
INTO FIvE-TwENTIEs.-Conv of the
seven-thirty notes falling due August, 1857,
into five-twenties continue to be made to the
Treasury Department at the rate of some
thing less than 100000 per week. Their
are now outstanding about $270, 100000 o
this issue of seven-tllirties. These notes,
owing to the immense clerical labor involved
in their examination, can be redeemed by
the Department at only about the average
rate of 100000 per week, if presented as
rapidly as they could be disposed of. Par
ties holding seven-thirty notes of the above
issue will therefore do well to forward them
to the Treasury for conversion into ive-twen-
ties as soon as possible, as hereafter, in case
of the presentation of large quantities near
the period of the full maturity of the notes,
much delay will ensue before the bonds in
conversion can be furnished by the De-
partment.

THE COOLIES IN CALIFoRN1A.-The
Sanfrancisco Monitor speaks in unfat-
ering terms of tue coolie laborers in Cal
ifornia;
We were informed a month or so ago
that a person had arrived in this city
from New Orleans to make arrangements
for three hundred Cinnamon to work on
Southern plantations, and as all distinc-
lions of race and color are abolished by
the civil rights bill, so far as Congress
can do so, we imagine the day not far
distant when the copper-colored pagan
labor will he substituted for the white
man in all the Atlantic States.
These coolies, for such they are, a
demoralizing blight to any community
in which they are domiciled. They are
active and ingenious, it is true, good
copyists, quick CT comprehension, and
useful drudges, but they are filthy,
theivish, and UNANIMOUSLY vile. They
are brought to this city as merchandise,
to be parceled out on the labor market,
with no other condition than the supply
of their animal wants and their return
home, living or dead, at the end of the
term contracted for. Very few of them
return alive, but continue to work on
their own account after the expiration
of their term of service, and after death
their bodies are picked up and transfer
ed to the Flowery Kingdom" annually.
Their are several companies trading
under real or assumed names engaged
in their import and export to and from
this city. The Chinese population of
California may be set down at seventy
five thousand, but it may not become
us now to present any details of the
demoralizing influence of SO large hea-
then population on State which casts
little over one hundred thousand votes,
or about fifteen thousand less than were
cast in in 1856.

MYsTERIoUs.-The Fredericksburg
(Va) Ledger says the remains of a wo-
man with long black hair, have been
found in a concealed place near the road
leading from Fredericksburg to Alexan-
dria, at the ford of Aqua Run, and
partly devoured by hogs. On exami-
nation black lawn dress, calico under
skirt, linen handkerchief marked S. X,
and small white and blue child's bead
necklace were found. The remains were
decently inferred. On or about the
Goth of May man, woman and child
supposed to be Irish), were seen near
the spot, and stated that they were from
Goldsboro', N. e., and on their way to
Alexandria. The man had rough ap-
pearance, and the woman was rather
above the medium size, of thin visage
and dark complexion. The child is sup
posed to be girl about three years old.
1t is the impression that this man MUIR
derd the woman and child and placed
their bodies in this lonely spot, and
covered them over with some ten inches
of earth.

Only beginning the journey, t.
Many mile to go;
Little feet, how they patter,
z Wandering to and fro:
Trying again, SO bravely,
Laughing in baby glee;
Hiding its face in mothers lap,
Proud as baby can-be.
Talking the oldest language
Ever before was heard;
But mother you'd hardly think SOY
Understands every word.
Tottering now and falling,
Eyes that are going to cry,
Kisses and plenty of love-words,
Willing again to try.
Father of all, OF guide them,
The patterlng little feet,
While they are treading the uphill road
Drawing the dust and heat!
Aid them when they grow weary,
Keep them in pathways blest
And when the journeys ended,
Saviour, o! give them rest.

A DUKES ADvENTURE.-The Duke Of
Hamilton and Mr.. Thos. Wombwell had a
strange adventure after the recent Deanville
races in France Having missed the train,
and being very anxious to return to London,
the Duke went to the coast to charter YES
sci to convey him and his friend to Brighton,
for the use of which they had offered one
thousand francs. The police, hearing that
two strangers were offering fishermen large
sums of money to convey them to England,
pounced down upon Mr.. Wombwell as one
of the two "welchers" who had bolted from
the race course with the pools. On the re-
turn of the Duke short explanation set the
matter right.
