A STICK I'M HIS THROAT.

A friend of mine had horse that
was sick, and after doctoring him a
long time without any improvement,
the veterinary surgeon told the owner
he had better take him to Mr.. johnson.
He did so, and Mr.. j. gave him a ball,
but the horse could not swallow it, and
he put his hand into his mouth to see
what was the matter, and found short
piece of stick in his throat, which he
pulled out, and the horse soon got well.
Since then he has known of five SINH
lar cases in his own experience. Once
he drove favorite mare from his farm
near Geneva to the State Fair at Au-
burn, and noticed that she did not seem
very well. When he started to come
home, three days afterwards, the mare
looked very gaunt, and was not as live
ly as usual. Coming to watering
trough on the side of the road, he
drov up to it, and the mare tried to
drink, but seemed to swallow with diff
ficulty, and let some of the water run
out of her mouth. I" That's the matter,
is it ?" said Mr.. j. to himself, and i'm
mediately jumped out of the buggy,
his right arm, took hold of the mares
tongue with his left hand and held it
firm between her jaws, put his right
hand down her throat, and took out
the stick.
Sometime afterwards, farmer asked
him to go to his house and look at a
horse that was sick. Mr. j. asked him
what was the matter. "Does he eat
well p He seems to want to eat, F" he
replied, Gas much as ever, but when he
takes his oats into his mouth, he lets
them fall out again" "Well," said MIR.
j., g l am not very well or 1 would go
with lint Il hnTon 0nd fox
hold of the horses tongue with your
left hand, and thrust your right hand
down his mouth, and just at the begin
ming of the throat you will find a stick. y
The man stared at him as if he thought
he was crazy. But he went home, did
as Mr.. j. told him, and, sure enough,
there was the stick!

1t is said that Judge-Advocate-Ge Gen.
eral Holt desires tn be Secretary of War,
and that he will probably receive the
nomination. This opinion is founded
on the fact that the President was upon
the point of rendering the office to Judge
Holt just prior to naming Gen. Raw
Inns, and that Gen. Grant informed a
Massachusetts, Congressman that he in
tended to appoint Mr.. Holt.
