From this until next May is good
time for cattle to get that fabulous dis
ease called hollow-horn Exposed to
cold rains and winds, with little to eat
and no comfortable place to sleep, is
enough to give cattle any kind of dis
ease. But how our ancestors and our
contemporaries ever discovered that there
was such disease as hollow-horn is hard
to account for. In our earlier days we
have seen the horns bored, and if they
were hollow it was pronounced a serious
case OF hollow-horn; when in fact all
horns are or should be hollow on healthy
and thrifty animals 1t is their natural
condition. Cattle may and do have ca
tarrh OF the head, but not Of the horns.
And the owners Of some cattle would
have catarrh if they had no better fare,
day or night, than shivering beside some
three board fence, and never think Of
calling it hollow-horn. Cattle may have
diseases OF the horns, but it is seldom.
But the best way to cure the disease pop
ularly called hollow-horn is to give the
animal plenty of good healthy food and
dry and warm quarters, with pure water,
and if the medicine is rubbed down with
a curry-comb so much the sooner will the
patient recover. 1t is too late day to
talk Of the loss Of the cud and hollow
horn as diseases. Diseases may cause
loss Of appetite for the cud, and disease
in the head may cause apparent disease
in the horns, causing GOODNESS and other
symptoms attributed to hoIlow-horn
There are veins and arteries in the horn,
and some diseases Of the head or ever
q the animal may cause congestion il
the horns, IS well as the limbs Any
thing that will cause morbid action OF

Important Capture.

For several days the Chief Of the Sc

States Treasury has been registered at
the Palmer House. In his apartments
there was on exhibition last evening the
fruits of some recent raids upon coun-
terfeiters. Piled high upon table was
$4,000 in tens, fives and fifty-cent scrip
The different denominations were neatly
tied up in packages, just as is the custom
st the Sub Treasures. The ten-dolar
bills were on a Poughkeepsie a. "
national bank; the tives were on the
Traders National, of Chicago; and the
fifty-cent fractional currency was of the
description bearing the vignette Of Sec
rotary Stanton upon one end. All this
money was captured in Wisconsin, and
was taken from a dealer in the spurious
