How to Rear Colts.

In relation to this subject, Judge
Grant, of Davenport, well known
breeder of horses, gives the following
directions: Give the mare plenty OF
milk reproducing food-bran mashes
(bran scalded with hot water), green
grass, oats and corn. Let her do no
work tor a month after foaling. AS
soon rs the colt will eat, feed him oats,
increasing the quantity to two to -four
quarts day, until weaving time, four
or five month after foaling. Break
the colt to halter as soon "a it can
stand up strong. When weaned con.
fine the colt in box stall, not by
halter, unless we'll halter broke, for q
week or ten days; then put him on
rich pasture Timothy, clover or blue
grass, or the cornfield, until frost in.
jures the grass then take him up fol
winter. Let him be kept at night in
a warm stable, but run out in decent
weather, all day. During tie winter
feed him six to eight quarts of oats /
day, or their equivalent in corn, ant
all the hay he will eat and he will
come out in the spring, fat, plump
hair and skin all right, and twice tn,
weight of a storm-exposed or neg
lected colt.

George ID. Prentice has been a con-
slant dr;nker for forty years. For
ten years he has been a drinfer OF
the lignum vitee order. Here is a
temperance lecture by him:
"Fhere are times when the pulse
lies low in the bosom and beats low
i'm the veins; when the spirit sleeps,
which, apparently knows no wax
ing, sleeps in its house Of clay, and
the windows are shut and the doors
hung i'm the Invisible Grape of mel
ancholy; when we wish the golden
sunshine pitchy darkness and wish
to fancy clouds whore no clouds be.
This Is state of sickness when phys
ic may be thrown to the dogs, for we
wish none of it. What shall raise
the spirit? What shall make the
heart beat music again, and the pulls
es beat through all the myraid-
thrOuged halls In the house of life.
What shall make the sun kiss the
CaSltth LtfiS 0Satit loi uS W itAi an HIS
old awakening gladness, and the
night overflow with moonlight, love
and flowers? Love itself Is the
greatest stimulent-the most intoxi-
eating of all, and performs all of
these miracles; but is q miracle itself
and is not at the drug store whatever
they say. The counterfeit is in the
market, but the winged god is not a
money changer, we assure you.
Men have tried many things, but
still they ask for stimulcnts.
Men try to bury the floating dead
of their own souls in the wine cup,
but the corpse rises. We see their
faces in the bubbles. The intoxica-
ton of drink sets the world whirling
again, and the pulses to playing mu-
sic and the thoughts galloping, but
the fast clock runs down sooner, and
unnatural stimulent only leaves the
house it filed with the widest rev.
elry, more silent, more sad, more de-
serted, more dead.
There is only one stimulent that,
never intoxicatcs, duty. Duty puts
clear sky over every man, into
which the skylark, happiness, Away
goes singing"

Seaweed Tonic, and Mandrake Pills will

To do this, the Seaweed Tonic and Man

B~ 1t is supposed that the Eau de
Cologne Club will close up their
" shebang for while, as they have
no further use to CONSUME their ses-
sions. The reading room, especially,
we expect, will be done away with, as
one of their members is reported to
have said of those who read the pa
pers during the canvass, that d-R
them, they read too much" We sup
pose they had some reference to the
reports of the Investigating Commit
tee that examined Mayor Walker
books, and perhaps also to few re-
marks on the same subject that ap-
peared in the JOURNAL from time to
time. We advise them to do away
with their reading room, for as soon
as man begins tos read and under
stand for himself, he naturally drops
the Democratic party, and goes IN
with those who are opposed to lgno-
rance and corruption. This ha;
always been the case. and will con.
tinue to be so. Close up the " lit
erary department"

ONE OF THE SAvED.-Our readers
will remember the accounts published
a couple or three months ago of the
burning of the Mittie Stephens, on
Lake Caddo, Red River, by which
some sixty people lost their lives.
Jacob Stigons, the present cook on
the Fanny Brandeis, was pastry cook
on the Mite Stephens at the time of
her destruction. but was so fortunate
as to escape. His hat and coat bear
evidence of the narrowness of his
escape-both being badly singed by
the fire. He was a member of ROus-
seau's famous First Kentucky Cav
airy. and was brave and true soldier
on the Federal side in the late I'M
pleasantness.

Several Queries.

What use is a loafer?
Is he any account to anybody?
Can any town in the State of Indi-
ana, of the size of Evansville. COM
pare with us in the number of loafers
to be seen On the streets2
How do the cusses make their liv-
ing?
Can man be loafer without serv-
ing regular apprenticeship at it?
We, under the sun, do all the
loafess come from that are to be seen
on our streets?
Does anybody know?
We have asked the above queries in
the hope that somebody will be able
to give us some light on this subject.
We see gangs of men hanging around
our streets that never seem TO follow
any business for living. The great
wonder with US is, how do they make
it pay?
Chicago is said to have five thou
san able bodied loafers. BY the time
Evansville gets to be as big as Chi
cago, if our loafers increase in the
same proportion, We will have twenty
five thousand. The great point OF
rendezvous for them in this city is al
the corners of Third and Main
Streets. We cannot understand how
the merchants in that vicinity are
able to do any business. The crowds
are so great at times that ladies are
unable to pass by. The police make
no efforts to clear the sidewalks, ano
those who don't like it have to 3" grin
and bear it," There are number o
people who are to be found in tina
vicinity quite often to whom thii
article won't apply, but the number i
small. We hope to see this nuisanc
abated, and throw this out as gentl
hint.

to dray left standing on the wharf
started. and the tail of the dray struck
hogshead of tobacco, cutting it so
rs to start it down the. levee towards

about on the Armada, attempted to
stop it. and for that purpose placed
his back against it. but his foot trip
ping against a piece of dunnage, he
was thrown partly down, aud bent
forward. when the hogshead rolled
over him, injuring him seriously, il
not fatally. He received an incised

RECoRDER's CoURT.-Business re-
vived little in the Recorders Court
yesterday, but no stamps were receiv-
ed by the Tycoon during business
hours.
Anton Rosencranz and his wife
were arraigned on a charge of being
disorderly. Several witnesses were
examined and lawyers were engaged
on both sides. The evidence was
what the hangers-on around the Court
would call "rich," but we thought it
was very ulgar. Rosencranz and an-
other family occupied the same house.
with porch between them. The
other family had some soap drying on
bench, which Mrs. Rosencranz did
not like. and she pitched it off the
porch into the dirt. This raised a
fuss, during which the defendant
raised Ratchet and was going to hurt
somebody. The Recorder fined them
$50 % each, with costs included.
They took an appeal to the Circuit
Court and gave security for their APP
pearance.
The next on the docket were Ellen
Coulter and Jennie Davis, couple OF
agnphs du pare, who have figured be-
fore in the courts. They had been
drunk, even so drunk as to lie down
in a gutter, and might appropriately
be called gutter snipes." They got
to quarreling and had small fight,
and were arrested and brought before
the Recorder who charged them So z;
each, which they promised to liqui.

Bey- Our Democratic friends came
out of their holes yesterday, and were
doing a good deal of caucusing "
during the day, ia the vicinity of
Third Street. We do not know the
exact cause of their troubles, but once
or twice we thought VIC heard the
names of " Van Ripper and Semo-
min " mentioned, and supposed they
were exercised as to the probability
of Eek" serving on the Council
Board. whose prospects, we are free
to confess, are not very fattering. as
the decisions of the Supreme Court
declare that those two votes will
have to be counted. We feel little
sympathy for the Democracy over the
terrible defeat of Monday; in fact we
suppose nearly all the Republicans
do, but we do not think that sympa-
thy will cause any of our candidates
to resign. Il is really pitiable to see
how sad those look that are holding
the little side Offices" such as Mar
ket Masters, Wharf Masters. Police,
Engineers, Firemen, sc. But, never
theless, the fat has gone forth-they
staked their all, and they lost. They
will be permitted to pass in thei1

CIRCUIT COURT. = No cases were
tried, yesterday. About twenty cases
we're brought down here from War
rick County on a change of venue,
all against one family by the name of
Rice. The court had just got ready
to 60 ahead with the trial of this
family. but when the cases were called
up. the defendants did not appear,
and their recognizance was declared
forfeited, and the Clerk directed to
issue bench warrants for their arrest,
which he did.
About four o'clock in the evening
the Sheriff succeeded in arresting two
of them-Geo. II. p. Rice and Moses
Rice. The other one had not been
arrested at six o'clock last evening,
but the officers were on his track,
with probability of making his ar
rest last night. Among the indict-
ments against this family are assault
and battery, with intent to commit
murder, robbery. larceny, etc. 1t
even half the charges against the
defendants are proven, they will have
a rough time Of it.
There are $50 criminal and 28a
civil cases on the docket for trial, and
by the time the grand jury gets
through, the number will be largely
! increased.
