Treatment of SPAWN in Horses.
EDITOR OF ONO FARMER The inquiry il
~often made in our agricultural and family
journals concerning remedy for SPAWN.
DR.. b. J. Kendall, Of Enosburgh Falls, VT,
some time since, in treating horse for SPAWN
in the usual manner by blistering, finding that
the application produced so much soreness and
pain and apparently no good, determined to in
vestigate the matter in order TO find remedy,
if possible, that would produce the desired
effect in more rational aud humane manner.
This result he finally succeeded in accom-
plishing, and the "Kendall's SPAWN Cure" as
It is called. is proving all that could reason
ably have been expected OF 1t. | have in-
terested myself particularly in the matter in
order to get at the facts, and find that the
remedy will effectually remove SPAWN and
splint in from five to six weeks time, causing no
blistering or soreness and leaving no callous or
scar to indicate where the difficulty existed.
This is truly an important discovery in medi-
cal science. and the ease with which 1t can be
applied and the absence of suffering to the
animal treated will commend the remedy to
| the attention of all. i. Il. TowLE.

| We are informed that the " Kendall's SPAWN
Cure " can now be had throughout the country
at the stores. Circulars will be sent to all send
ing their address, which give testimonials OF
its beneficial effects on horses. by removing
the engagements Of all kinds, without blister
ing, and also working to perfection on man.

ElOquence of Trees.

The tree by the doorstep may be
called natures preacher. A home with,
out tree must be cherries indeed. Let
there be not one merely, but many.
Transplant, plant nuts. and learn by
happy experience how pleasant thing
it is to watch the progress of tree set
out and watched and tended by ones
own care. Of fruit bearers let there be
both early and late, SO that each month
of the year the sideboard may be bright
with heaping baskets, from which a
generous hospitality may offer to guests
wholesome treat. There is q rein.
ing influence shed from trees. The
beautiful always inspires. From trees
around the doorstep there will come the
welcome aroma of more contentment,
and with contentment there is continual
feast"

Cost of EurOpe's Standing Armies.

A short essay, entitled "The Question
OF Money!" has recently appeared in
Paris from the pen of M. de Girardin, in
which it is made to appear that all exist
ing governments except those of England
and America, are fast Fastening to a
bankrupt condition. This il caused
mainly by the elaborate armies and fleets
which mutual suspicion compels all
the powers of Europe to maintain as
standing threat to all encroach ments of
their neighbors. The result is that Eu-
rope is one vast camp, the soldiers of
England, France, Germany, Austria,
Italy and Russia costing those govern
ments about $5O0,000,O00 annually.
England army of 106, 1000 men costs$53,
256, 100, Frances 100000 men, $112,-

Tanning a Shrew.

Out in Grow Township, says the Anoka
(Minn.) Union, there resides man and
wife, their names we shall not disclose
who have been married but few years,
In these few years they have lived to-
gether there have arisen differences, and
now they don't like each other as well as
they ought to. These differences fire.
quently lead to open hostilities, and, as
neither the one or the other likes to give
up, they quarrel most furiously. Ore
day last week trouble began once more,
and recrimination followed recrimina-
ton, until the husband, Selling pitcher
OF milk that WAS standing in close
proximity, remarked, emphatically and
touchingly, Z" Lucy, if you do not stop
scolding, I shall certainly empty the
contents of this pitcher on you" Lucy
paid no heed to the threat, when, alas |!
the contents of the pitcher came upon
her. Of course this made the now
thoroughly irate Lucy boiling. The
husband then seized pail of water and
said: ",Lucy, if you don't stop scold-
ng, shall certainly throw this water on
YOU" Lucy again needed not the threat,
and received the water lin consequence.
This but added insult to injury, and
Lucy waxed more wrathy than ever.
Then the husband caught up pail of
soapsuds and cried, Lucy, If you don't
stop, l shall certainly douse you with
these snds." The soapsuds threat also
failed to have any effect, and she was
treated with soapsuds. By this time the
lady was wet to the skin, and hastily re-
treated to her sleeping apartments to
change her clothing. all the while scold-
ing to the best of her ability. The hus-
band fastened to the we'll and drew up
two pals of water, and, on returning
informed Lucy that the cold water was
for her. Cold water had the desired eff
feet, and Lucy surrendered, and now we
understand that all is serene once more
how long to last, no one knows.

The RnYer Sold.

The story is told of married lady, a
frequenter Of auctions, who had set her
heart on certain costly Japanese vase
offered at recent sale. She had spoken
to her husband about it, but he had dis
couraged her thinking of it, saying it
would be too high. But she went to the
auction unknown to him; and he, nm
known to her, dropped during the morn
ing, thinking that he would strain a
point, and, buy it, if possible, to please
her. The vase was put up, and the bid
ding was lively for time. At last there
were but two bidders, and both were in
dead earnest. The excitement ran high
the figure reached was far above the
real value, but both persisted. At last
one OF the tive gave out, and she went
home to tell her husband Of her cha.
grin, only to learn that she had been
bidding against him, and that the vase
was hers at ruinous price,

Life Of the Harriet Lane.

A recent issue Of the New Orleans
RicayuHe has the following: There is
now tied up at the wharf, a little above
jackson street, a three-masted ship,
which attracts by the beauty and sym
metry of it's appearance. She looks like
a vessel Nhick is able to cut her way
through the water with exceptional
speed and grace, and the facts do not
contradict the seemiBgness. She is
sharp and heightened in build. and sug-
gests the idea of about sixteen or seven
teen knots an hour in favorable wind.
The vessel is now called the Richie, and
Capt T. w. Hutchinson, an able and
experienced officer, is at present and has
been for years, her commander. She is
now loading for Boston, and will prob
able leave by the end of next week.
This vessel has got history which is
entwined with that of the late struggle
between the North and the South. She
was built in 1858, and launched in 1859,
and the name Harriet L1ne was conferred
in honor of the niece of President Blu
chanan. She was then revenue cutter,
sidewheel steamer, and performed many
offices Of honor. In 1862 she was cap
tured at Galveston in an extraordinary
way. Approaching the city, protected
by seven guns, she was attacked by two
small vessels, the Bayou City and Nep-
tune. Neither craft had heavy gun ON
board, but had barricades of cotton piled
high, whence they sent the deadly rife
ball to the doomed crew of the Harriet
Lane. She responded with her heavy
broadsides and succeeded in sinking the
Neptune (the wreck of which is yet be-
fore Galveston), but she was finally cap
tured, all hands being killed save three,
who were badly wounded. At Galveston
at the time, under the orders of Gen.
Magruder, was a Col. Lee. He was a
confederate, but he had reason to know
that his son was one of the crew of the
hapless federal cutter. Obtaining per-
mission to visit the ship, he found that
his son was among the the Inflated three.
The only consolation, however, he had
was to see the son few hours afterward
die in his arms. Some time afterward,
when Capt Hutchinson had assumed
command of the vessel, Col. Lee visited
it, and cried like child because of the
memories it had awakened. After the
capture of the Harriet Lane the confed-
crates used her as blockade runner be.
tween Galveston and Havana. In 1866,
when she was in the harbor of Havana,
the federal government claimed her from
the Spanish, and after considerable red
tapeism she was given up. Afterwards
she was sold and reconstructed, her
boiler being taken out and her wheels
removed. She was then made q sailing
vessel of, and has since been plying in
the merchant service, but the old hull
and much of the furniture of the Harriet
Lane are still preserved.

THE SOLID SOUTH SCARED.

The Solid South is badly scared. There
is abundant evidence of that. The size Of
the electoral vote on the side of the Solid
North has started unple .sant emotions.
Here, for example, il a loud vail from the
chief organ Of the South Carolina bulldozers.
The News and Courier of Charleston. I,
says the temper with which the northern
press has discussed the election Sis not en-
c~ouraging or reassuring to those Who had
hoped and believed that the period Of sec
tional agitation and sectional strife was past
and gone" This declaration in the face OF
a democratic majority Of 500, Jim = repub.
lican state, q majority obtained By creating
a reign of terror and stufing ballot-boxes
with tissue. paper votes, is the coolest per
fermances Of the season. "rhere is no
thought ofdisfranchising TIL colored people"
adds the bulldozing editor. 1--WE want them
to vote, as they will vote hereafter, vote
with the democracy" That is, they win
be persuaded" with pistol and club to vote
the democratic ticket. That is freedom Of
franchise with a vengeance, "rimewill tell
it's tale" concludes the editor. 1.-THE south
is ready to be judged by her actions" That
just what will happen to her. At present
the country is setting in judgment on the
Infamous performances in South California. !
and the longer 1t sits the hotter does IT,
righteous indignation wax.
