think it my duty to acknowledge to You and

his treatment, and in one week was so much
improved that | could risk returning home

In about two weeks NY cough returned and
l kept getting worse. and cor: .ary to DR..
Bourne's injunction never to take medicine
again, committed that folly, and soon was so
completely run down that 1 could scarcely

much IN praise of the Doctors kind attention

yoltaire ON Marriage.

Voltairl said The more married men
YOU have, the fewer crimes there viii be-
Marriage renders a man mere virtuous and
more wise. An unmarried man is but half
of perfect being, and it requires the other
half to make things right; and it cannot
be expected that in this imperfect state he
can keep the straight path Of rectitude any
moro than a boat with one oar, or bird
with one wing can keep straight course.
In nine cases out Of ten, where married men
become drunkards, or where they commit
crimes against the peace Of the community,
the foundation Of these acts was laid while
in single state, or where the wife is, as is
sometimes the case, an unsuitable match
Marriage changes the current Of n man 5
feelings, and gives him center for his
thoughts, his affections and his acts. :
is a home for the entire man, and the eoun-
sci. the affections, the example, and the in
terest of his 'better-half,' keep him from
erratic courses, and from falling into a thou
sand temptations to which he would other
wise be exposed. Therefore, the friend to
marriage is the friend to society and to his
country"

A L9sus Natur9--Half Horse and
Half Ok. A

During last week an animal was brought
to this city from the northern part of this
State, the like of which was never before
seen. A year ago we learned from several
reliable gentlemen, who had seen it, that
such a monster was extant, though rather
too diminutive to attract much notice.
About the middle of the next month, its
keepers concluded that it attained growth
sufficient to be exhibited, and it was brought
to this city to remain till after the State
Fair; but its extreme viciousness rendered
it unsafe and improper to allow it to stay
here. The general characteristics and fea-
lures of the horse are closely blended with
those of the OK, while the name, reaching
from the forehead to the shoulder, and
sweeping to the knees, adds to the general
appearance of ferocity The horns are
heavy at the base, but very short, and re-
markably polished and pointed. The eye is
dull, but it suggests things unutterable-an
expression of latent power and deyilishness
which the general appearance of the ami
NAL confirms The muzzlefis black and ug-
ly, the wide ncstrils arguing a large breath
ing apparatus and dunconquerable endurance.
The jaw is heavy and prominent, the
forehead full but rather square. The depth
of the shoulder is very great, the fore legs
short and large, the foot broad and deeply
cleft. But here the bovine resemblance
ceases altogether, and the equine charac-
teristics begin. The body is slight and
rounded, closely covered by glossy coat OF
fine, short hair, long flowing tail nearly
smooth and little as those Of a race horse,
and the hoofs rather slight, but well formed,
contrasting with the heavy legs and cleft
hoofs of the forward part of the animal
In gait, too, is. a ludicrous cross between
that of the two 5rutes of whose natures it
seems to partake. While the motions of
the forward part of the body are slow,
awkward and shambling, those ofthe hinder
are extremely graceful and agile Al
together it is one of the most wonderful
curiosities to be found in the animal king
dom. Who viii give it name?
