The rapid spread of Canadian horse
disease, and its appearance here, is caus-
ing serious apprehension as to the effect
on business of all kinds, should it be-
come general. The number OF horses
employed in this city at present is neces-
sarily very large, and should the disease
spread here generally, the effect will be
yery disastrous. The owners OF large
stables have already taken precautionary
measures to prevent its appearance
among their horses, by fumigating and
disinfecting them. The Veterinary Sur
geons generally have gone to Detroit and
Toronto to investigate the best method
for treatment of the disease.
