DIPTHERIA IN. PoULTRY.--Diptheria
is disease which originates mainly from
improper care and sudden changes of
weather and variations of temperature.
1t affects fowls of all ages is either acute
or chronic, sometimes beginning suddenly,
at others gradually, and seems kind of
lingering, consumptive disease. 1t is also
occasioned by improper and damp coops
and roosts. Fowls, to escape the roup,
catarrah, pip, gapes and similar diseases,
should be fed on wholesome food, and
placed in dry, well ventilated coops-
cleanliness proving a great assistance to
health. 1t makes its appearance in a way
similar to the Group in the human being
1t fills up the windpipe at its opening with
sort of white, ulcerous substance, and
continues to form and spread over the en-.
tire tongue ard mouth, occasionally caus-
ing the fowl to cough, raise its head, and
open its mouth to breathe. The smell
from it is very offensive, and unless the
bird is relieved it pines away and dies.
The best cure fer this disease that we have
heard of being used with any degree of
success is nitrate of silver and powdered
borax. Remove the ulcers as much as
possible, and apply the nitrate Of silver
with a feather. Powdered borax can be
applied in the same manner by wetting the
feather, dipping it in the powder and
swabbing tho throat. A little chloride of
potassium dissolved in the water which Is
given the fowls to drink may possibly avert
the disease-say one-quarter ounce to half
gallon Of water.-7he Peoples Practical

THE GEORGIA MINsTREIS.-T These
admirable representatives of the burnt
cork opera will perform here at the Vir.
ginia Opera-house on Monday night. AS
musicians they are said to be as good as
Blind Tom in their respective roles. They
have performed in most of the states oil
this Union, and in some ofthe countries oil
Europe. They are Georglans educated in
England. The troupe performed last night
with great acceptance in Petersburg. The
Raleigh, N. c., Sentinel of January 9th
says:
Sour readers know that we do not hesi-
tate to slash any performance that deserves
it.. 1t affords us pleasure, however, now
to be able to say few words of hearty
praise in behalf of the Georgia Ministries.
They are capital. Raleigh has at last been
visited by really excellent minstrel troupe
They are darkies and no mistake. 1t is
plantation to the life. The end tambou-
rine man is the best negro performer we
have ever seen by all odds. Indeed, the
entire troupe is good, and you will laugh
until you are sore and hoarse besides.
We write too hurriedly to undertake o
criticism. Take our word for it, it is
wonderfully amusing, grotesque, and side
splitting. They richly deserve a full
house tonight, and we hope they will
get it. We write the above after having
seen the best negro performance in all the
Northern cities. Here we have the genu-
inc darby in his happiest mood. Some of
the airs sung were beautiful, and the house
enjoyed them hugely. There is some-
thing very original in Cox's 'barn-yard
scenes But we cannot now particular
ize. We say again go and see them and
you will thank us for the advice"

bankruptcy business--in Richmond third
Tuesday of every month-and continue the
session of these special terms as long as
