TYPHOID FEVER IN HoGs.-A great
mortality annually takes place among
pigs in this country from malady
popuIarly known as the "hog cholera"
Il can hardly be said that much Is
really known as to the nature and
causes of this disease, which from Its
destructiveness merits the attention OF
the farmer.
Having had opportunity Of observing
and treating a disease which has been
known by some pathologists as "typhus
fever in the pig" may give a short
account of il as it may turn out to be OF
the same, or at all events of a similar
nature to "hog cholera"
Symptoms.-The pig begins to droop
and shlver, loses its appetite, shows
great thirst, becomes much prostrated,
and is very unwilling to be disturbed.
Profuse diarrhea is also symptom OF
the disease, and the excavations are OF
a yellow color, at later stage they as
sume dirty red color, which tinge
arises from the occurrence of hamorrh.
age in the intestinal liberation.
About the second, third, or fourth day
after the attack the skin OF the pig be-
tween and around the ears becomes of a
red color, which usually passes into va
rious shades of purple and violet. The
red tinge gradually spreads over the
skin, and is especially conspicuous on the
hanks and other parts not covered with
hair. In the latter stages of the disease
many of the pigs become paralyzed IN
their hind extremities, and so weak as
to be unable to stand.
Post mOrtem appearGRCes.-T most
peculiar alteration in the organs of the
body is the number of yellow patches
which are scattered ever the surface of
the small intestines. These patches
are very similar in hue to the scars
made by the firing iron on the horses
skin. They are caused by the forpa-
tion of ulcers on the internal intestinal
surface which are covered by an exuda-
tion of yellow lymph. This pig fever
is of the same nature as typhoid fever
in man, and is characterized by some
what similar post mortem appearances.
There is also occasional liberation in
the upper part of the throat.
Treatment-The diseased pigs shoald
be separated from the healthy, and the
following should be given :-Dilute sui
phuric acid, o.; Tincturc of gentlan,
OF. A tablespoonful of this should be
given twice a day in a quart of water,
and the dose may be diminished one
half or two-thirds according to the size
of the pig.

J.R. CLAY, GRANTS colored selection
for the Liberia mission, declines. He
has too good a thing among the scala

sides he knows that the country he lives
in will soon be an amply satisfactory ne
gro Republic, without going to Liberis
to find one. FRED DOUGLASS has appli'

away from the white trash, whose com,

There is consolation even for the Mas

1t seems likely that the purposes Of

refused. The indications are that the

AS an express train on the Michigan Central
Railroad was nearing Albion Tuesday after.
noon, the passengers waiting for the train
were startled by the frequent whistling Of the
engine. 1t was found that man was driving
at a furious pace to get his horses and wagon
across the track before the engine reached the
crossing. The engineer did his best to stop
the train, but it was too late, and the9cow-
catcher struck just between the wagon and
the Ahorses, separating them instanter,, and
consigning each to place on opposite Bides
OF the track, little or none the worse for the
collision. The man and his wife. (each about
sixty-dve) were caught on the platform above
the cowcateher, and just in front of the
engine. Instead OF loosing presence ol
mind and jumping of, they settled them.
selves composedly as though nothing had
happened; the old lady put her hands in heI
muff, while the old man, with one hand extend
ed. as IL grasping the reins, and the whip
raised ia the other, assumed d Jockey attitude,
and thus the old couple rode up to the station
triumphdnt, amid the cheers Of the bystanders.
As soon as the train stopped, number rushed
ito their assistance; but they declined all aid,
manifesting no concern for themselves, but
considerable for the fate OF the horses and
wagon. The horses were uninjured, and the
damages to the wagon were triflmg.
