AS previously announced, ". Il.

the basement OF the Presbyterian
Church on Tuesday night last. The
evening wnx not ut all favorable, and
Mr.. Leitncr did not have rs large !,
crowd rs woui,lha greeted lin had
the weather been moro nuspicious.
However, Il very respectable audience
was prcse Mt Mr.. I.citnrr's lecture vas
one I'll aLc cllastest We eyer Icare:
He treated tic subject Of tcmpcr4s11
i'll rather an original manner, an, @
not fail TO impress every one Of his
ntteranccs upon the minds ofthosc
who heard him. His introductory
remarks wherein he portrayed, in
vivid and thrilling words, The cause of
temperance rs The comrlicSt anal most
beautiful OF nll virgins, were rccciv. i
with marked appreciation and cuthu-
siasm. lie showed the danger Of
moderate drinking, and assorted that
all such habits would obtain IL
mastery ovor The most OF those who
INDUCED in the practise, and how i'm,
possible it was to reform, after having
once become enslnved by Che habit. His
argument WAS irresistible on this point,
and clearly demonstrated that there
is no middle ground for n man to oc-
cnpy, on the temperance subject;
those who tampcr with whiskcy, are
sithcr drunkar,ls, or will become
drunknrds in time. The habit will
iix itself upon them, and when
thoroughly formed, will cling tcna
cionsly to its victim. Mr. I.eitncr
spoke of The innocent disgust that
child has for drunko man, and
how repulsivc and loatllsomc such OBJ
jects are generally. lie appealed to
those present to act their paris we'll,
and set examples ofvirtuc and soLriety
for the children of to-day those who
arc to take our places, in tho great
drama Of life.
Throughout. Mr.. Lcitncr's address
WAS learned, chastc and eloquent. His
delivery was excellent, while his flow
of beautiful words seemed rs bounti
ful as his love for the Temperance
Order. All in all, the evening was u
very interesting ono

Judging a Bull by His Stock.

No one was considered better Judge of
Short-lIorns in his day than Mr. Eastwood,
who gathered together the first materials
which laid the foundation Of Col TownleY s
enterprise. lie il was who purchased Bat.
tercup, daughter of Mr. Wetherel's Barmp.
ton Rose, and mated her with Jeweller, a
rather ordinary bull, hired from Mr. John
Booths Killerby herd, from which cross
came the original Butterfly. To him, also,
is due the credit Of selecting from the New.
ton Hall herd Of Mr. Wetherell the superior
Bates cows, Roam Duchess aud Blanche 9th.
The former, by WhittingtOn, owned for dam
Red Duchess by cleveland Lad I'd.
Blanche 9th was by Mr. Bates renowned
Duke of Northumberland. When iu lS48
Mr. Eastwood disposed of bis small herd Of
20 entire to Col Townley, it contained, be-
sides the animals named, Bessy, half.sister
to Buttercup, and Bessy was afterwards the
dam Of Frederick
Nothing proves more forcibly the good
judgment Of Mr. Eastwood than the hire Of
the Booth bull, Jeweller, against the advice
Of the Yorkshire breeders, who assured him
the employment Of such bull would prove
the destruction of his herd. Jeweller was a

and light neck, but Mr. Eastwood regarded

Stable Floors.
BY PRESIDENT W. $. CLARK.

Much has been written upon the best ma
terial and style for the floors of stalls for
horses. All agree that nothing is SO we'll
suited to promote the comfort Of the animal
and to preserve the feet and legs in healthy
condition as level bed of earth. But for
obvious reasons this is regarded as impracti-
cable in our climate. In England, it has
heretofore been the custom to pave the floors
Of stalls, usually with cobble stones, giving
them slight inclination either to the rear
or the center, where gutter or CRATE received
the urine. Recently, good authorities have
approved Of the American plan Of using
chestnut or oak plank instead Of stone, and a
trial in London is said to have proved that
horses stand with more ease aud safety on
wood. The great objection to our common
stable floors is the pitch of from one to four
inches, which is given for the purpose of
draining of the urine. This is often much
larger than is necessary, but anv inclination
to the rear is injurious for the reason that
the toes Of the animal are thereby turned up,
and the back sinews, especially Of the fore
legs, kept in a sort Of unnatural tension.
Most men would object to being compelled
to stand on their heels, and horses in pasture
are seen to stand with their fore feet in holes
which they have stamped out of the soil.
This enables them to remove the strain from
the back sinews and give them rest. One of
the best devices for ever coming this difficulty
in stable floors has heretofore been sort of
wooden grating or movable floor placed
upon the ordinary planking, the rear end of
the pieces composing it being two or three
inches thicker than the other end, and the
pieces being fastened half an inch apart, so
as to allow the urine TO flow down on TO the
lower floor, and then to the gutter in the
rear, as usual. This arrangement is some-
what expensive and troublesome, and bet
ter one is desirable. The following plan has
been devised and adopted for my own stable
and seems to answer every requirement A
floor Of plank, with an inclination to the rear
oftwo inches is laid in the ordinary manner, ex-
cept that the panks extend only to within two
feet of the front of the manger The space be.
tween the ends of the planking aud the manger
then covered with pieces which are of the
same thickness with the planks where they
join them, but are sawed so as to be an
inch and half thinner at the manger
Thus a pitch forward Of an inch and hall
in two feet is obtained, and the horse eau
stand as suits him best, either as when al
rest in the field, or on the line of junction
with his fore feet level, or blck of it with
