The Chambers.

Because of the recent appearance
among horses of the dread and invari-
ably fatal disease known as CHAMBERS,
and its alarming prevalence in some
portions of the State. something about
its nature and the means for preventing
contagfOn may prove profitable. Awell
known and thoroughly informed veter-
mary surgeon was interviewed yeSter-
dav by a reporter for the Times on this
subject. He said: .'Of all diseases
among live stock this peculiar form of
CHAMBERS is the most to be dreaded.
When an animal is afflicted with it there
is absolutely no hope of recovery. and
the only thing to be done is to limit it
TO the one patient if possible. This is
rarely, if ever. possible, however. for
with great rapidity the whole stable be-
comes infected, even TO the building,
harness and litter. In fact, everything
in the barn becomes pregnant with the
germs of the disease. and it is almost
impossible to eradicate them. There
is only one sure way known to the pro-
feSsion, and that is TO destroy all the
horses. and then burn the stable with
its entire contents. The attendants upon
such cases very frequently contract the
contagiOn. and it operates with as
deadly effect upon man as upon
horse. BY the most systematic disin-
fiction, however, a man may. with COM
parative safety. treat cases of CHAMBERS.
He must make an absolute change of
clothing upon leaving the stable and
take 4 thorough bath if he would not
spread the disease or contract it him.
SELF
How may the disease be detected in
its primary stages?'
In the earlier stages the symptoms
are similar to those of ordinary distem-
per, and it is very apt to be mistaken
for that disease even by experienced
veterinary surgeons Within few DAYS.
however, the changes are very pro-
nounced. The glands of the throat be-,
come swollen, and malignant eating
ulcers form in the nostrils. In short
time dropsical swelling of the Joints
appears, attended BY alterations on the
lymphatics of the skin. The lungs
finally become infected. followed by 8
distressing cough, and before long the
animal dies"

ders and it was no unusual occurrence
for the horses of an entire regiment &c

Does the disease ever originate

appear without specific contagion, but
think that such an idea is erroneous.

On day before yesterday there were seven
intements made by the health department ut
the public expense. This shows that there is
n very largo clement in this community in
such destitute circumstances as to be unable
to provide burial for their deceased relatives
or friends. A very large proportion of the
burinls made at the public expense are those
of colored illegitimate children. Poor colored
women who earn their living rs house SER
wants or by taking in washing give birth to
infants that they are not able to provide for,
either during life or after death. Many of
them assert positively that they don't know
who the father is, while others state that
such and such man is responsible, but that
he refuses to do anything for her, Such in
stancesare of daily occurrence. There should

people is what runs the death rate up, when

Pleasant Remembrance of the Eighty
third Birthday OF Rev. DIR. John Withcr-
spoon.
The eighty-third birthday Of the Rev. DIR.
John Withorspoon Scott, now a clerk in the
pension Office, was pleasantly celebrated on
Monday by his fellow clerks by congratula-
tions and the presentation of poem written
for the occasion. DIR. Scott was born in west
Pennsylvania near Pittsburg, Jan. 22, $500,
the namesake of that member of the conti-
mental congress who inserted into that famous
instrument, the declaration of independence,
the phrase "and with q firm reliance upon
the God of battles" He is the son OF pro-
iessor in Princeton college, and professor
himself in colleges of no mean pretentions,
and the aged iather-in-law of prominent
member of the United States senate, Gen.
Harrison-a lineal descendant of President
w. IL. Harrison.
The following is the poem written by Mr.
s. A. Wiggin, of the pension office, and pre-
sentod by Mr.. Daniel j. Waters in n neat little
speech-a delegation of the patriarchs of the
bureau, consisting of Gen. Dye, DIR. j. H.
Bgolow, Mr.. Henry Stock, Dr. w. III. War
man, and others, offering their congratula-
tions
Touching with reyerent hands thy thoughtful
brow;
my lie mas Deen long ana useiul uny,,
And blessings followed all thy path below.
Thine eyes have looked beyond the misty veil
That hides from mortal sight the silver shore;
Thy hands have puCked the heavenly lilies paleI
Aud thy glad soul shall live ior eyermore
Thy mission was to comfort and TO cheer
Earth's pilgrims thro this weary vale OF tears,
To bind the brOken-stand beside the bier
Oh loved ones lost, to soothe our grlei ana lear
To speak the words of life and guide the feet
o. erring wanderers 10 the gospel fold
Rejoice with souls in JOY, aud mourn with hearts
that weep
This was Thy mission full of love untold.
SO may thy four score years and three remain
A crown OF glory for thy reverend brow;
So may the fragrance of thy liie's refrain
Comfort and cheer thy peaceful path below.
And as the holy oil on Aaron's head
AnOinted him rs king and priest OF God,
| So hath that lite its tender influence spread
| 10 bud and blossom like his golden rod.

of the latter has been presented to the Presi-
