Horses In storms.

Avoid, as far as possible, exposing horses
to storms. When on a journey. aim to
feed at the regular hours. If nothing more
can be done, take along some corn-meal,
and put quart in a pail Of water, and stir
it up while the horse is drinking. It will
greatly refresh and strengthen him. Many
horses suffer from dyspepsia; and one
great cause Of it is irregularity in feeding.
and giving too much grain when the horse
is fatigued. When horse has been expos
ed to storm, and comes home in an
exhausted condition, give him warm
bran-mash. sl2
Put two or three quarts of bran in pail,
and pour on two or three quarts of boiling
water, and stir it up then add cold water
sufficient to cool it to the temperature of
new milk, and give it to the horse. Blan-
ket the horse, and rub his head, ears, and
legs dry; and afterwards rub him dry all
over. Many an attack of collie would be
avoided by these means. We think many
farmers err IN not feeding their horses more
on grain. 1t would be better 70 work
harder, or at least more constantly, and
feed higher. Of one thing we are very
Sure-not one farmer in ten grooms his
horses sufficiently. 1t is q shame to man
to leave horse at night, after q hard day s
work, until he has been rubbed clea.i, dry.

Wreck of the Steamship Atlantic
Fearful loss Of Life-Helpless WO-
and Cargo Total LOSS.
HALIFAX, N. S., April 1.-The steam
ship Atlantic. of the .sWhite Star" line,
from Liverpool, March 20, for New York,
running short of coal made for Hall
fax. M
When about twenty miles from port,
off Cape Prospect, at $3.50 O'Clock this
o. M, she ran ashore on Meager's
Head. She had on board over one thou
sand men, women and children-only $50
of whom succeeded in landing the re-
mainder, including all the women and
children, were lost. The captain and third
officer were saved and the first officer was
drowned.
On the first receipt Of the news of the
disaster here the Cunard and government
steamers started to the assistance of the
Atlantic, but the third officer. who arriv-
ed here at $50 this p. M, says the vessel
and cargo are total loss.
LATER DISPATCHES.
New York, April 2.-No reliable de-
tails Of the disaster have yet been received.
The steamer City of Montreal, due here
to-day, brings duplicate list of the Attain
tics passengers. The company have sent
an agent to provide for and report the
names Of the survivors.
New YORK, April 2.-Among the
cabin passengers lost on the steamship
Atlantic, the only ones now known are
William H. Merritt and wife, of New York;
also Miss Merritt, his sister, and Miss
Scrymser, his sister-in-law.
There is no copy of the list of passengers
in this city. The agent of the line here
says his dispatches from Halifax received
last night, state that none of the Atlantic's
cargo had foated, which he considers as
evidence that the steamers hull had not
broken.
The people who had friends on board the
Inflated steamer crowded the offices of the
"White Star" line this morning, hoping to
learn the names Of the survivors, but as no
list had been received no information could
be given them. The terrible disaster is
the only topic Of conversation here this
morning, and full investigation is de-
manded by the public, in order that the
responsibility for the disaster may be fixed
on the proper parties,
BosToN, April 2.-It is reported that
Russell Sturgis and Franklin w. Sweth,
were passengers on the Atlantic.
= LONDON, April 2.-The Atlantic disas-
ter is the universal theme here and in
Liverpool. The Offices of the agents in
both cities are thronged with friends of the
passengers.
THE LATEST.
HALIFAX, Nova SCOTIA. April a.
The steamship Delta which was dispatched
yesterday to the scene of the Atlantic dis
aster. has not returned, and there is no
later information.
The Atlantic had nine hundred steerage
and fifty cabin passengers. Not single
woman or child was saved.
