seeming. Mango and Cracked Heels, and
Treatments for Their Cure.
A very slight eruption Of the skin
will sometimes cause violent itching
There are various forms of this dis
ease, but they are only varieties of the
same condition. Treatment: Changes
in diet, according to the condition of
the horse, will often cure a simple case
without any medicine. If it does not
yield to this. let the animal be sponged
daily with weak I've of saleratus
water, into which throw little sulphur
and sassafraS, equal parts. Dose, one
ounce daily. The covering of the body,
which NAV be needed in consequence
of sponging. should be linen, instead
of flannel
Mango is disease to which man, as
we'll as great variety of snimals, is
subject. although when occurr No in
the former it is generally denominated
itch. 1t is known to be a highly con-
tAgious disease. and therefore an in
fected animal should be located by
himself. Various opinions are enter
tanned regard ng its nature. The most
popular opinion is that it is dependent
on the presence of an nimalculp-minute
insects-bnt men of practice are of the
opinion that the mites. as they are
called, are the effect and not the cause:
that they are generated in the meta
morphoSis of the cuticular tissues.
Poverty and insufficient food have been
assigned as among the causes of mango,
but this can not always be the case. for
it often occurs in horses that have
been well fed. and it occasionally
occurs in dogs that eat a large
quantity of animal food. 1t probably
originates more frequently from de-
ranged digestive organs than from any
other cause. Uncleanliness, without
doubt. may give rise TO it, but it occurs
in dogs that have the very best care
and attention as regards cleanliness.
Treatment: Before making any appli-
cation to the skin let the animal be
sponged all over the body with lime
water; after the skin becomes dry
anoint it by means of sponge with
pyroligneous acid. four ounces; spirits
Of turpentine. one ounce; linseed oil.

Cute Rsynard's sasacity in the Role Of an
Undertaken.

A Apleasing incident, that adds to the
foX's reputation for sAsewdness that is
somewhat better than cunning, appears
in the Liverpool Courier. A Scotch
correspondent writes to that journal:
.'One of the stalkers in the deer forest
here has young fox which he caught
when quite a cub, and which he keeps
chained to kennel near his cottage.
The other day he gave the creature a
dead crow. thinking he might like the
amusement of eating it; but REWARD.
after careful consideration. thought the
birds condition rather called for decent
burial. and therefore ne dug with his
forepawS large enough hole in front
of his kennel. and when finished he put
the bird into il, laying it on its back,
with its claws in the air.
The stalker, who was watching the
animal, saw him then scrape the loose
earth over the bird 50 as to quite cover
its body; but the legs still stuck up in
the air These legs seemed TO annoy
him a good deal. and he tried to press
them down with his nose. Failing in
this. and after evidently turning the
matter over in his mind. he bit the legs
off. laid them fiat beside the bird and
then covered everything over with

Not long ago an ingenious French

former into soap and glycerine. Into
the river flows not only sewage. but re-

quantities of grease. Along the margin
of the Seine piers have been constructed
to intercept most of the greasy and
solid matters. which are lifted out by
laborers armed with huge forks and
spoons, and chemically treated at the
works, the solid matter helping to feed
the furnaces. Having these extensive
arrangements for clearing the river, NJ.
Souflrice offered to remove all dead
