THE EPIzooTIC.


This epidemic disease has made its cy-
Gle in little less than eight years, and
illustrates the doctrine Of epidemic cycles,
as we are taught, 1t is disease Of the
horse, but men are influenced by the same
epidemic.
We treat a horse as we would man.
diagnose his disease in the same way, fol-
low the same Indications and give the
same remedies. 1t is the small dose Of
pleasant medicine for direct effect.
But with reference to the epizootic,
viii! give what wrote in 1872 and 1873,
as it may come in good time for the pre-
sent epidemic.
We have it, and have it bad. That is
the genus Equinus is sick in its totality,
as probably not single horse in our city
is well to day, but the disease is quite
mild in most cases, and only becomes dan.
gerous to life where the animals are over
worked or exposed.
The disease is the old fashioned erganche
maligna, involving the fauces, tonsils and
posteror nasal cavities.
There are two parts to the disease-an
asthenic fever and its localization in the
throat, fauces and superior nasal cavities.
Post-mortem examinations show lessons
OF these parts similar to those observed in
malignant sore throat The mucus mem
brane is thickened, epithelrsm is detach-
ed and the surface secretes pus profusely,
and there is extensive liberation in some
Of the worst cases.
The regulae are many, and occur as
well when the horse has been kept in the
stable and carefully nursed, as when they
have had moderate use. They may be
classed in two principal lesions-of the
nervous system and of the blood
The first usually shows itself in muscu-
lar tremor and want of power to co-or-
dinate the action of the muscles. The
horse can stand still well enough. but if he
is exercised but very little it causes great
exhaustion and sometimes speedy death.
The musclar tremor is not chill in the
ordinary sense.
The second probably commences with
an impairment Of the urinary functions
albummaria [?l-which soon produces
dropsy, In many cases this shows itself
in the hind legs first and extends to the
trunk. in others it is an aseites, hydro
tharat or hydro-pericardIum, in two
cases it was undoubtedly an effusion into
the cavities of the brain and spinal canal.

KNIGHTS OF HONOR.

This young organization observed its
second anniversary on Friday evening last
at their hall-Fsk hall. 1t numbers some
fifty members, and with visiting members
from jefferson aud Conneaut lodges and
the non members Of the order who we're
gathered in from town and surroundings,
must have numbered some three or four
hundred. At any rate, about every foot
Of space was occupied. Though the audi
ence was so large, it was highly respectable
and embraced the better sort Of citizens Of
the county. Among the guests were q
good show Of ladies and several of the To-
cal clergy-Reetor Bailey, aud Pastors Of
the Presbyterian, Methodist and Baptist
churches, lawyers, Pettibone, and so forth.
The audience was packed like sardines, as
to closeness. The exercises opened with
an address Of welcome from Dictator Lu.
cien Seymour, vocal music and prayer by
Rev. Mr. Bailey Of St. Peters church.
Music again followed, and the address Of
the evening by Mr.. Pettibone followed with
a glance ut the features Of the order
Many OF us learned for the first time Of its
ends and objects. They were benevolent
and social and looking to a more advanced
civilization. Perhaps the leading charac-
teristic was life insurance and provision
for misfortune and death. The address
was very good, especially considering the
fact that the orator of the evening was in
his nOvitiate-a new member. Others were
then called upon for remarks and Mr..
Leonard, of Jefferson, gave a very humor-
our address and put the company into a
very happy frame Of mind. Mr. Town
send, of Conneaut, was called for and took
the floor next. Other invitations were
given to the non members to participate in
the speaking. These proceedings were in

portion Of the company adjourned to Has
