Dr. Da.M has Ix-en, however, we uniformly fortunate in the lioraea which have passed In-fore his eyes than koti others.

A treat proportion of our horses nre too well fed obtain more food than they require. In this land of plenty, most of our valuable horses are over fed, and mor especially does this happen among animals owned by wealthy ami liberal in dividuals. The impression we wish to rnnrwv rt dm mind of die render is, that the food of such, is not proportioned to Inlior in odier wonls. there exists a din- proportion between the amount of rarlion taken in the form of food, and the oxygen received in the process of respiration. Now to illustrate this, we will suppose that a man engaged in tnercantiln pur suit, owns one or more hows, ho 1ms not the time nor inclination to give the one or the other the necessary amount of exercise; they stand tip to a full crib, from day to day; enjoying or raiher, gorging themselves with a certain amount of fodder, over and above what they ac tually require, and much more limn they really need; the surplus is often stored up in the form of fut, and this induces acute diseases, and they die of too much food and care. It is very rare thnt we hv nrrnsinn to recommend a man to feed his horse more liberally, but almost always the reverse Starvation is said to be the cause for many equine diseases, but so far as our experience goes, such cases are. in this country, very rare. We conceive the term starvation to bo a libel upon civilization; and so infrequent in its application among a nation of husband men, that it is omitted in our dictionaries. A man on a barren rock, or a horso in the deserts of Arabia, might prolmbly starve, but the idea of tho latter starving in the vicinity of a well-stocked barn or stable within striking distance of a land of plenty seems to us a very absurd conclusion. There are enough horses to be found dressed tin in the srnrb of starvation ; having tight skins, prominent ribs, and cadaverous countenance, living, yet half dead. But they know nothing of the "Famine in Egypt:" they get enough, but too much of the same kind. Dadd's Veterinary Journal. fork Mater.

Warm Stabling. We do not think that, as a rule, farm ers appreciate sufficiently the advantages of warm stabling for their animals of all kinds. Just in proportion as stock is ex posed to the rigors of winter, must their allotment of food be increased. A cow will require nearly double the quantity of food to keep up the natural warmth of the system, in badly-protected stables, that others will which are duly cared for. So it is with all descriptions of animals. from the horse down. Care, however, should always be taken to have stables well veutilated. Milch cowa should par ticularly have clean, well-littered, warm stalls, with daily messes of succulent food. They should also be frequently curried, have salt two or three times a week, and pure water to drink. The extra care bestowed will be doubly repaid in the extra supply of milk and butter, to ay nothing of the health and appearance of the caulo. - Yititgar. This article is ono of the most necessa rv, and yet we rarely find it of good, or even passable quality. Uy following the rules laid down in the following recipe, which I have pursued for many years, any one may make the article on bis own premises: "To eight gallons of clear rain water, add threo quarts of molasses, nut into a good cask, shake well a few times, then add two or three spooufulls of good yeast cakes. If in summer, place the cask ia the sun ; if in winter, near the chimney, where it may be warm. In ten or fifteen days, add to the liquor a sheet of brown paper, torn in strips, dip ped in molasses, and good vinegar will be produced. The paper will, iu this way, form what is called the 'mother,' or 'life of vinegar.' " tor while residing in Euro. They in clude ninny specimens of magnificent typography, and are almost all clothed in cleiruul binding. Tho fastidious tastes of a book-lover were freely indulged in their si-lection and adornment, but the claims of utility were not tho less borne in mind. The votaries of Sanskrit, Cierman and Italian literature, will find among them manv volumes equally costly and indis pensable. Most valuable of all arc those which bear upon the ancient langungo ami poetry of llinbtan. Dr. Wales wa himself a zealous student of Sanskrit, and tho apparatus he had accumulated for tho pursuit of that attractive, thougn nere neglected department ot learning, leaves little to be desired. After the Indian, the Ilaliun books are tho most remarkable. Amonir them are very numerous editions Such crimes and wrongs as unhappy Kansas has for twelve months endured, even Hungary or Poland has never known ; and the Power at whose instigation these villainies were and are tiernetrated sits enthroned In the White House, and has just achieved another four years' ascendancy in tho Federal Govern ment. Who, in view of these facts, can say that Republicans may now pile thoir arms, even for an hour? Tub Thi hunk will be. as It has been, a Political journal avowedly, though not ex clusively so. It recognizes the truth that Freedom and Slavery are here grappled in deadly conflict, and that In the result one of them must lose all control over the Icricral Government.

Some three or four years ago litis new grape was brought to light at or near Coocord, in Connecticut if we are not mistaken ; and for a year it cr tilted quite nfurort among fruit-growers in the East. But it was soon discovered that it did not deserve near all the credit which it received principally from those who were interested in its cultivation and sale at five dollars a vine. What made it, however, an olecl of attention in the latitude of New-England was the very important fact that it ripened from ten days to two weeks earlier than other varieties. It has by this time been fairly tested, and it prove to be a grape about equal in size and quality to the Isa bella. It now sells at one dollar a vine, with the sale principally confined to New England, where, for the reason just men tioned, it is of more value than iu warmer latitudes. , . - . .
