BLANKETING HoRsEs.-Tbe Canada
Farmer says: The blanket should
not be used upon q horse at all in
winter. unless used faithfully, The
trouble arises in this way When a
team has been driven few miles to
market, or the same distance for
pleasure, blankets or robes are put
on, but then drawing logs to the saw
mill, or doing other heavy work
they are made to haul large loads a
mile or two, and return at brisk
trot, and stand uncovered till another
load is put on. In this way the
horses are suddenly cooled off, and
the succeeding day finds them sick
and unable to labor for some time, if
not ruined entirely. Blanketing at
one time and emitting it at another
is worse than affording no protection
at all.

~ The Cincinnati Gazette.

a- The Cincinnati Gazette, of
Saturday, furnishes complete list
of steamboat accidents for the year
1868. The number was much less
than the previous year, SO far as the
loss of vessels is concerned; but the
loss of life has been greater than that
of several years. The list aggregates
156 accidents; of which 106 resulted
in total loss; 81 by fire, 9 by collision,
2 by explosion, and IA by sinking.
The loss ofproperty will amount to
at least s2,5O0,00O for the boats and
as much more for the cargoes and
baggage, footing up total of S., 900,
900. Two hundred and twenty-four
lives were lost by these accidents.

W We clip the following items
from the Washington correspondence
of the Cincinnati Gazette:
The telegram in an Eastern Dem
ocratic paper, and perhaps in Wes-
tern papers of the same stamp, to the
effect that General Grant has spoken
of Carl Schurz as an "adventurer"
and Carpet Bagger," and has given
Mr.. Henderson documents intended
to aid him in the pending Senatorial
contest in Missouri, is wholly un-
founded. General Grant was seen
last week, by persons friendly to Mr
Henderson, as he had previously
been by friends of General Schurz,
but declined having anything to do
with the Senatorial question. He
pointed out the impropriety of in
reference on bis part, and said the
matter was one for the State Legis
lature to settle, and refused to say
word that could be used for the ben
eft or to the disadvantage of either
of these gentlemen.
Parties in New York who are in
direct communication with the revo
lutionists in Cuba, write 20 this city
that the insurgents are making steady
progress. They are relying upon
the yellow fever to check operations
of the forces sent from Spain, as
they expect the fever will appear be-
fore these troops can make any par
ticular headway. A leading Cuban
writes that the movement now is for
a separate nationality, instead of an
neXation, and that the abolition of
slavery is included in their plan.
The Conservative party movement
in Virginia is headed by Senator
A. HI. Stuart The meeting of
Thursday and Friday, at Richmond,
was attended by eight or tea persons
from this city and thirty five or forty
from the country. Its proceedings
were secret. Theregular Democrats
are much disgusted at the movement,
and Republicans are gratitied at the
prospect of a split in the ranks of
their opponents.
They had an alarm of fire at the
+" hlte House yesterday, and another
one at the government printing office. |
mat at the first named place was
occasloned by the burning out of
chimney; that at the printing office
was raised in fright, resultin5 from
the falling of pile of books No
damage was done at either nlace
and nobody was hurt. The fire do
partm ent was partially called out Inv
the White House alarm.
W Tt is rumored that A. J. will in
a few days issue proclamation of am
nesty to all Union officers and soldiers
below the rank of Brigadier General, to
be followed by one on the third of
March, extending free and full par
don to all who were engaged in that
except the chaplains.
A. j. says any preacher who carried
his religion into politics by going into

H Messrs. WALKER & KERR have
something valuable for the farmers.
1t is an Improvement in subsoil
plows, or in the mode of subsoiling.
The improvement is simple contri-
vance, and can be easily attached to
any plow, and removed at pleasure
1t can be guaged so as to subsoil to
any desired depth, its adjustabllity
being from one to twelve inches be-
low the bottom of the plow to which
it is attached very Convenient and
advantageous arrangement.
We need not speak of the advan-
tages of subsoiling Every farmer
understands that. And here they
have an improvement that is simple,
cheap, of comparatively light draft,
and can be used in connection with
any pillow. 1t seems to US it is just
the thing needed. In that belief, we
commend it to the attention of all
interested, land all farmers should
be interested J in the important mat
ter of subseiliDg.
