The Horse Disease in the Dominion.

Some days ago the telegraph made
reference to the general prevalence Of
the horse disease in Toronto, the mat
ter becoming 50 serious as to impede
travel and transportation, and involve
considerable loss. 1t appears that the
same epidemic prevails III Montreal and
its vicinity, and is rapidly on the in
crease. A Toronto paper gives some
of the symptoms of the disease and the
proper mode of treatment, which, IN
view of its possible spread, may be use

The disease appears to be catarr-

result of some atmo pheric influence,

monitory symptoms are dullness, II
staring coat, n watery discharge from
the nose speedily followed by severe
hacking cough {; the pulse is quickened
and the mouth hot, the nasll men,
branes are injected and the ears and
legs are unnaturally cold, the discharge
from the nose increases and becomes
OF greenish yellow color, the breath

cases labored and severe. Al
though this disease must necessarily
prove a great loss and annoyance
to the community generally, we do not

A FO0lhar,N Voyage.

A letter signed "Charles b. Inman"
has appeared in one OF the Calcutta
papers, stating that the writer intends
to make the voyage from Calcutta to
England, by the Canal, in II small boat
80 feet long, eight feet across the beam,
and about two and half tons burden,
schooner rugged fore and aft sails, and
full deck. When the writer purchased
the boat she had been condemned as
useless; he had her repaired, and en-
gagged crew of five lascars, all of whom
deserted him when the time cane for
him to make his experimental trip to
sea. Left witlout crew, he resolved
to put to sea himself with n dog, and
he now processes to have gone up the
rivers into some of the widest parts of
the country--in all, during twelve
months, not less than 100 miles
with the sole companionsnip OF his
dog. He says he has enjoyed the life,
and that, to all appearance, his dog has
enjoyed it equally, especially where
there was OCCASION for quiet meditation
in lonely scenes He voyaged through
the malarious Soonderbunds without
having days illness. He had room,
his letter stated, for one passenger to
England. A Calcutta boatman at once
accepted the offer, and the two are said
to be preparing for the trip.

The Ocean Steamers and Gas,

1t was deemed great feat in England
when the railway carriages were lighted
with gas; but now it seems the ocean
steamers are to have the same boon.

vessel ENCOUNTERED severe weather. The
saloon is said to be lighted up as brilliant.
ly as any ball room. Here is certainly
good news to those that must cross the
Atlantic in the winter moths, when the
evenings are long, and when darkness as
well as cold drives the passengers below.
Hitherto they have exchanged the gloom
of the deck for the semi. gloom of the
cabin; and what could they do by the
aid OF the lamps, which sent out a ftful
Lightly To read has been impractcable,
unless the book has been pushed against
the scanty flame, and the experiment is
seldom tried. The passengers must either
eat, drink, play at whis., or 20 to bed, and
they usually do all four things in rapid
succession. Some, however, eat and
others drink all The evening, because they
cannot see to read or write. But the dark
ages have now passed away from the
saloon, and the hours will be spent amid
the full blaze of civilization. Nor need
there To any more danger of fire then
there is at present, for gas pipes can be
made as safe rs lamps, aud the manage
ment OF the great passenger steamers
which sail from Liverpool is model of
caution, In those which ply upon the
Mississippi or the Hudson it is deemed
safe to leave uncovered lights about,
despite the copious arrangements for
liquoring up y and ofcourse, the huge
structures are occasionally burned to the
waters edge. But the Cunarders permit
no such lamp erlngwith fire. They are
governed by beneficial despotsm, which
acts upon the principle that the passen-
gers cannot safely be trusted with facilities
for lighting their own pipes after certain

In Vain.
by ROSE TERRY.

See how they crowd and snort below,
And fight for husks all brown and dry;
While at their feet like beads of snow,
The pearls YOU throw to feed them lie.
Tears that the bruised and breaking heart
Hides IN It's shell, to jewels turn;
They have their value iii the mart,
They glittef-when they cease TO burn.
Go. take them to the smiling bride,
Your lite that lives in frozen tears
They crown her dark hairs odorous pride,
The heart-beats swing them in her eaH.
Oh. fool, to fling them to the swine,
That tramp and scratch and rend below (;
You pour away Your life divine,
And think to reap the grain you SOW.
Know, then, that all your waste is vain
Yainly these precious gems are thrown,
The snutfling beasts that crowd the plain
Are hungry beasts, and beasts alone;
Alas what dream of foul despair,
What lavish love, hath power divine
To work an answer to your prayer,
To make you angels out Of swine!

Mulohng is too often not properly ap-
preciated or neglected from some cause
strawberries should not only be mulched
Just before fruiting, but should be well
mulched in the fall, just before the ground
freezes, and you will not complain of your
vines being all frozen out or dead in the
spring, All newly planted trees, shrubs,
and evergreens should be well mulched as
som as possible. Three or four inches of
short straw, hay, light manure, or litter of
any kind will answer to keep the hot sun
from drying out the moisture of the soil,
which favors the forma ion Of new roots,
instead of being parched up, as is too often
the case; it also prevents the growth of
weeds. Mulching is often beneficial il

their early opening until the late trosts are

The Gardner's Monthly says, we have
no doubt that more lives are lost from i'm
perfect heelng-in, than from any other
cause whatever" which every observing
person who has seen the way in which
the roots of trees are buried in masses,
with large interstices of air everywhere
among tie roots, will assent to Trees
badly heeled-in should not remain 50
twenty.four hours before planting out
Clods and masses of earth are merely
thrown on the top Of the roots and only
shade them form the SUMS rays. In a few
days the roots will become dry, because
they are not in contact with the moist
earth, If the heeling-in IS we'll performed,
every crack and c,evice will be compa 5tly
