This institution has accepted largely on nce count of shipments of petrolenm and other Amencm‘i:mdnce from here. The losses, how- ever, could not have been on account of petro- loum acceptances. In well ‘informed circles, it is thought the suspension was caused by loskes in the Russian trade.

A lctier was received, alleged to ba from Wendell Phillips, in which he said that the French Communists are entitled to the respect of the civilized world, and that the bar- barities practised on the Communists were & dis- grace and shame to humanity. It was also an- nounced that efforts will be made to release Chambers, imprisoned for shooting & mnon- striker. _ Judge Barrett, of the Supreme Court, to-day issued an order to show cause why bail, in the suit of the Erie Railway Company against Jay Gould, should not be decreased, or such other relief granted as the Court may see fit. Attor- ney General Barlow and ex-Judge Van Colt agreed, to-day, to & postponement to Moundey next of the nrdgument upon the order issued eiting the Board of Supervisors of Kings County to show cause why a mandamus should not be issued compelling them to levy and collect the deficiency of three and one-] millions of State tax in Kings County.

Tho capital of tho bank is 100,000, and the officers say its acsets are good and available. No outside assistance has been roceived but money will be borrowed on securities if neces- sary, to satisfy the demands of depositors, The run was caused by the Chatham National Bank refusing to continue as clearing honse agent of the Mutual Bank for the resson, misunderstood Dy the depositors, that tho account did ot prove | remunerative.

A Cairo Dry Goods Store Robbed of 820,600, Carmo, I, Dec. 9.—Considerable excitement ‘was caused in this city this morning by a report that Blum & Anson, dry goods and clothing mer- chants, had been robbed lest night of $20,000. TIn an interview with Mr. Blum, this morning, wo learned from him that he had in a desk in his store-room more than §20,600, which he could not deposit on Saturday evening; that he re- mained in the store oll day yesterday; that at about 7 o'clock last evening he and his clerk, Mr. Ulman, left the store and the money in the desk; that when they returned at about 10:30 o'clock last might and opened the front door the 'immense portrait of they discovered somothing like the fumes of chloroform in the room; that the desk was broken open, tho drawers pulled out, and the money gone. over the rear door was broken open and the bar lifted, the door closed, but unlocged. Ho Eays e misses nothing but the money. He said further that the transom The transom window was broken open, bub members of the police assert that their evidence will show that this was done from the inside, to conceal the fact that the real oulprit had & fey to the store. The affair is enveloped in mys- wf:yim, TIL, Dec. 9.—No further discoveries have been made in regard to the $20,000 rob- bery here last night, except that of some foot- rints in the back yard.

Review of the Stock, Noney, Dond, Gold, and Produce Markets. Special Despatch to The Chicago Tribune. NEw Yorg, Dec. 9.—The movement on the Stock Exchenge developed no new phase; busi- ness continuing, as usual, in a few specialties. The Hannibal & St. Joseph shares, however, particularly the common, took a conspicuous placo in the dny's performance, transactions having been made at 35%@39%4 for common, sud 57@59%4 for preferred. This movement i8 believed to be under the direct control of parties connected with the nearest interests of the Company. Next in importance wes the Pacifio Mail, which was irregulor, and somowhat in- {fluenced by news that tho steamer Orizaba had recently been disabled. Northwestern common and preferred wero exceptionallystrong, the for- mer advancing from 863{ to 88, and the preferred from 90 to 91. This, together with the firmness in Hannibal & St. Joseph stocks, and an easier feeling in money, rallied the general market to about the best figures. MONEY. ‘The money market waa characterized b/ con- tinued stringency, business having been largely at 1-32. In the afternoon transactions were made as low as 7 currency.

The popular distrust of & new play in & new theatre and by a new company, based upon so many imperfect *first nights,” will require a day or two to wear off, and then we may expect to see this, one of the latest and most deserving theatrical enterprises among us, prosper accord- ing to its deserts, which promise to be by no means emall. Although worked up under innumerable difficulties, last evening’s performance was decidedly rlensant and acceptable, the more so that it Dotokens other pleasant and acceptable evenings —revivals of the good old time when, without the temporary biaze of some passing star,” a good stock company, s cosy theatre, and an en- joyable play; finely put upon the stage, and well enacted, formed a combination of attractions sufficient lo insure that most mutually agreeable state of things theatrical: & good entertain- ment and a good patronage. There are many people ye; among us who remember this sort of thing witt pleasure, and will be glad to anjoy it once mom. All in sall, the new company at Hooley's nay be sct down as an excellent organ~ ization, though the opexing play, ““Partners for Life,” is (carcely calculated to bring its strength and capiity to s fair test. It is & modern Bociety comedy — which means some- thing relurdant of elegant costumes and sconery, ittenuated in plot, lively and rapid in movement, and altogether not an unpalatable melange. Mr. Byron's “Partners for Life” is no exceptim to the rule in these respects. It embodies 10 story worth mentioning, and, it must be onfessed, furnishes no considerable scope for ine acting. The main characters of interest an those assumed by Mr. Blaisdell, who if neat, qiiet, snd natural; Mr. Padget, Who heeds mop of dignity and less of senility in or- der to reaize the evident intention of the au- thor; Mr.Dillon, who has an extremely funny part to berin with, and enriches it with humor 28 only Iillon canj Alr. Soggs, always an effi- cient, capible actor ; Mr. Wilson, who has but little o @, but makes up and does that little well; Mr,Hyndman Barney, & portion of whose snxicty Bgarding his personal appearance might orofitably be applied toward rememberng his lines and studying up his stage “business;” Miss Kate Mock, the new *leading 1ady,” out)t the somewhat mild requirements of whose nle could bo detected an appearance bardly yorthful enough, and a tendency to smile overnuch ; Mrs. Howard Rogers, who is, as usual, excellont ; and Miss Marie Louise, & gracoful, omely young lady, of whom much that is satisfscory may be expected. Such are the hastily-fond judgments of the various mem- bers of thi company who appeared last evening. With a clger knowledge of each other, and that clearer urerstanding of dramatio unity which can onlycome of long assccistion together, their shozcomings will doubtless be toned down and their excellences enhanced, and we firmly expect tosce them become, what the manage- ment ha striven so hard to secure, the most peular stock company in the city. (e part of their promise, Messrs. Hioley, Padget, and Blaisdell " have certdnly fulfilled, as was evinced last uven- ing. The have roached the extreme height of perfectior in elegance of stage mountings. The drawing-nom scene, with its genuine marble mantels, seal oil paintings, and rich farnitarer was & gex of scenic taste and effect. This a directionin which Hooley’s is sure to become famous. In the new soubrette and singer, Miss Emma Clne, we have an admirable set-off for Dillon, and it is safe to surmise that there shal] be some glorious farces botween the two. The lady lsbored under a mevers hoarseness lnst evening, it was euident, but enough was notice- sblo to #how her to bea comedionne of great versatility, and a vocalist of much talent and cultivation. The list of pleasantfeatures would not be complete withont including the orchestra, which is one of the best in the city. ATREN'S THEATRE. ¢ Hamlet” was played last evening at Aiken's theatre to an sudience more select than numer- ous. Lawrence Barrett was in the title-role. Jlr. Barrett comes to the West with less reputa- tion and with fewer trumpets blowing his praises than oven whose names are almost the syn- onyms for Hamlel, which is an advantage in one respect, 8 not very much is expected of him, and, if he elevates his part above mediocrity, he deserves commendation. Mr. Barrett presents an even and genorally a fair portrait. His con- ception of the character is pleasing in the ex- treme, his_reading is singular correct, and his action adequate, There are no flashes of genius or what are taken or mistaken for such, but occasionally there is some very fine, not to eay powerful, acting. In the inter- view with Ophelia, when ho advises her to retire to & nunnery, he rises above himself; and again with his mother, when he eshibits his powers to tho best advantage, and is \'vorth‘{ of 1io small amount of praise. As an individual study of tho character of Hamlet, & conception some- what original and new, Mr. Barrett is well worth geoing. Hohas good stuff in him. He never descends below the plane of g’}nd acting, and frequently rises far higher. he is not a genius, and he may prove himself one yef, he is ‘almost o genius, and that is say- ing s good deal. He should have tho inspiration of a large audience. He is & young man, growing, as he deserves to grow, in popular estimation, with a future befors him, Mr. Aiken took the part of Laertes. There are better Laertes in existence, and Mr. Aiken shows to much botter advantage in his favorite part of Bob Brierly. Mr. Lawlor was the ghost,—great, heavy, healthy ghost, clad in coats and pants of mail—or what Iooked like mail—with a piece of blue gauze, intended to create an illusion to the effect that ho was an invisible, airy nothing, but to use an undramatic exgsesmn, it was “too thin.” The ghost spoke his lines in tones suffi- ciently sopulchral to suit everybody. ZThe King (Driscoll) was not unhappy wearing the crown, and went through his part in a style thet proved him an sctor of some experiencs, although the character was evidently not suited to his cast of mind or tone of voice, especially as he was slight~ Iyhoarse last evening. Polonius (Pierce) was one of the best, if not the best, of the minor char- acters. Horatio (Woodhull) was fair, sud Ko- sencrantz (Rodmax), and Guildenstern (Howland) carried their sabres with ability and grace. That was about all wasrequired of them. ~Zhe Player King (Graves) was very funny. He thought he was enacting & comic part, which, while it made the unskilful laugh, could not but ‘‘make the judiciyus grieve.” Ho threw out his arms at an imaginary foe and uttered hislines in lugubrions voice. The Queen (Mis. Msaeder) was not born to bear mial ‘honors. They do not sit well upon her, yetshe evidently did the best she knew how,” and what ~more could bo ex- pected. Ophelic (Mrs. Lamagan) will goon become famous as Ophelia whatever chance she may have in some other line. She was never in love, or if she was she forgets all about it. She cannot depict the tender passion. Any young lady in the audience could tell that. Her voice 1s not the voice of & woman in love, and she throws her arms around Hamlet as if ho wero a lamppost. On the whole the play deserves the support of the public. It is fairly mounted, and its excel- lences more than atone for its shortcomings, and whet would & play, any more than aman, amount to if it were perfect? It would bean snomaly. It would be dull and uninteresting, and there would be nothing to eriti and carp at a8 people went home. The play will be cou- tinued during the weok, wehope to bettor houses than that of last night. THE ACADENY OF MUSIC. Miss Lydia Thompson's reappearance in bur- lesque, ot tho Academy of Music, last evening, wag an evidence that even yet Chicago sudien- ces can stand an evening dévoted entirely to the charms of that variety of the drama, for the microscopic theatre was packed, the masculine element, of course, greatly predominating. The pieco played was ** Blue Beard,” or one of the Torms of that proteen nursery story, ‘‘espec- ially written and adapted for the Lydia Thompson Company,” as the programme announces. The amount of - ‘“especial writing ond odaptstion” in the piece is nat at firs abparent, nor does it imoress itself forcibly 18 the piece draws to a close. There are hutidreds of forms in which this delectable his- tory of the polygamous dex;finb has ngpem’ed, {rom the story ungrémmstically narrated by the nursory-maid. for the beneflt of. har charge, to the rbo Bleue” of Offenbach. Precisely at which poin between the two the version pro- duced at the Academy should be placed, we do not know, nor does it.matter. Thereis plenty of burlesqits, &swe haveseen it before, and little of anything else. The same tenuous uns are stretched to transparency; the samo ¢ jmmeasurable measuresmove along;” thasame 12k of meaning, aud the seme absence of drap- ery aré th tharaeteristics of the piece. Thers is not much to bb said About it, in any way. The costumes; What little Héie 18 of them nre gorgeous, #o far 88 they go; the dificulty is that they dor’t go far enough. The scenery at the Academy is necessarily deficient, and the orchestra not a8 deficient as delicately organized thenha—faam could wish it, except in the ele- ments of music. The atege 18 scarcely adapted to striking scenlo effects, and this a disadvan- tage nothing can atone for. Some of the old favorites were there,—Beckett, Lydia Thomp- son, Eliza Wethersby, and some néw faces an voices which will doubtless take the places of those who are no longer seen and heard in the company. Miss Thompson was as vivacious and sprightly as ever, and was Tecognized a8 an old friend at once. ' Her won- derful song, “My Heart is True to Poll,”— wonderful only as & musical composition, and not ns s literary effort,—touched the tender heerts of the people, and rendered them oblivi- ous of the pninfuf defeat of the orchestra, which was nearly distanced several times. The quar- tette, ‘“Touch thaHm-%uunfl 7, was given by Misses Thompson, Wethersby, Duboiz, and Zurbini with excellent occasibnal effect, for ~the orchestra waj oceasionally called . upon to remain quiescent, and given time to rendez-ous and recover its eri- ergies for a fresh assault wupon melody. Beckett was as usual extremely funny, revelling in & breadth of burlesque to which few can hope tosttdin. The inevitable “If ever I cease to love,” which he as.Blué Betitd, and Miss Thom, son 23 Selim, agp'n;snd therr ddoration for Fu- fima (Miss Dubois), gave ample opporttnity for local hits, which the audience ucgg&d as gecn- liarly refreshing. The introduction of & Scene 1rom Brete Hart's ‘“Heathen Chinee” was & nov- elty, and a pleasing oms, for it gave Mr. Edouin an opportunity to be immensely funny as the Oriental gentleman whose ignorance of euchre was so_successfully simulated. Indeed, Mr. Edouin is to be congratulated on having for his share the only piece of acting in the burlesque. As for the rest, there is no reason to supposa {hat anything but lack of uisfort ity prevented their similar success. But, if thers ia nothing in ““Blue Beard” to commend, there is nothing to condemn. 1t is, happily, ffes from impropriety, and as long asthe public mwillinito pay its dol- lar to gaze for more than two hours at good legs, it will excuse bad musio, and pardon the nonsense,_that babbles in a perpetual stream, tli" the sake of the prettylips fromx whence it ows. 2'VICKER'S THEATRE. Mies Jane Coombs began the second week of her engagement at McVicker's last evening to a fine andience. * London Assurance” was given, with Miss Coombs as Lady Gay Spanker. Her rendition of the role, as well as her support by the company, will receive & more extended re- viewal than can be at present allotted to it. 5 IOTTA IS EUROPE. The papers have been killing poor little Lotts, the actress, for some time, insisting with & per sistency worthy of o better cause, that she was pining awey and dying, and would no more charm or amuse the public. We are Jappy to announce that she is still in the land of the liv- ing, well and happy. Mr. DeBar, manager of ‘the St. Louis Opera House, received a letter from her a week ago, saying she was un~ married and not dead, and Chicago has later news—Chicago always was ahead of St. Louis— in aletter received yeaterc]:f by Mr. McVicker from which we are permitted make the follow- ing characteristic extract. The letter is_dated #Yarwood Hall, Cheshire, England " and says: Hero wo have been in_Europe five months, travel- ling through France, Switzerland, Germany and I hardly know where. Mother returned to England in September, but I remained in Paris with some dear Lady friend from Boston, to pursue my studies, And ob, how I do study French, and mausic, banjo, and drum.

Lotta's head is perfectly level. She is not a bit dead. J JOSEPH JEFFERSON. A paragraph has been going the rounds of the ‘papers for some time, and found its way into the the dramatic column of THE TRIBUNE on Sunday, 1o the effect that Joe Jefferson, alizs **Rip Van. Winkle,” the famous actor, was nof only nearly” blind, but was threatened with insanity. - oers will be glad to learn that Mr. McVicker Teceived a letter from 3ir. Jefferson on Sunday, stating that his sight was almost_ entirely re- Htoted. and that b would resams the prastico of ‘’his profession in about four weeks. His illness, which postponed his Eastorn engagements, will also prevent him from presenting his great im- personation to the Chicago public this season. — TOO SICK TO LIVE. Strange Death of an Italian—He is Supposed to Have Committed Suicide Rather than Go to Hospital-Some Facts Concerning Him. The Coroner was notified yesterday that his services were required at No. 815 State street, ‘where & man had died under rather pecnliar cir- cumstances. He was unable to answer the sum- mons, owing to the sccumulation of previous cases, but will doubtless investigate the matter to-day. Meanwhile, & TRIBUNE roporter has ascortained the following particulars con- cerning the dend man: Ho was an unmarried Italian, aged about 40 years, and had been em- ployed for some months in the restaurant of An- tonio Caproni, No. 815 State street. He was known to the proprietor and customers of the place as “John Greeley,” a name which bhad been given him immediately after he went to work at the restaurant. The reporter +was unable to ascertain his true name, for the reason that the only person connected with_the house who kmew it wag not in when_he called. John died on Bunday night about 10 o'clock. Ho had been complaining about_four days, his disease apparently being an affection of the ‘brain, but the illness wag not such as to con- fine him to his room. It is believed, however, that he was suffering from an incurable disease of many years' standing. His physician, Dr. Pillsbury, " informed the proprietor of the res- taurant on Sunday that he would have to bere- moved to the hospital. Caproni communicated this intelligence to John, and the latter said he would never go to_hospital, if he could help it. He was not very ill on Sundsy, for he ate a very hearty dinner, and supplemented it with cigar, which he smoked with every evidence of keen enjoyment. Shortly ~after the meal he wenf out for a little while, and upon his’ return went directly to his bed. When next seon ho was in » sound sleep, from which 1o amount of noise or shaking could rouse him. His friends, becomiog alarmed, sent for Dr. Pillsbury. Ho was not in his office, but Dr. Smith, who occupies the apartment with him, visited the man. From his appearance, the doc- tor was led to believo that -John_had taken & heavy dose of narcotic poison. He instructed the attendants how to act until such time as Dr. Pillsbury called. "All the skill of the latter phy- sician, however, was unsvailing to restore the patient to consciousness, and he passed from 8leep to death without & szm%vxe. t is thougbt that he committed suicide rather than go to the hospital without scarcely a chance of everre- covering his health. The acqusintances of the deed Italian know but very little of him. His friends, if ho had any, do_not residein this city. He was 2 man of some education, and it 18 said once held tho position of stage manager of an opera_company. Disease, however, engender- ed poverty, and the latter misfortune compolled him to seek employment at anything that would yield him a hve%hood. COLONEL FRITZ ANNEKE. No Inguest Has Yet Been Held on His Body— Further Information Concerning Him., The Coroner has not yet held an inquest on the body of Colonel Fritz Anneke, Who wag killed at an enrly hour yesterdsy morning by falling into o vacant lot, near the corner of Mar- ket and Superior streots. The remains etill lie at tha Moreme. but will doubtless be removed to- dsy; 48 the friends of decessed in] Milwaun« keo havd boen notified of his melan- choly fate. The Colonel was s man of considerable ;rominenga among the Germans of thia Stote and Wisconsin. He went through the war as Colonel of & cavalry regiment of the Iat- ter Btite, and- bore the rg:mfinn of a gallant and successfol soldier. His home was in Mil- waukee, and he w43 interested in vanons business enterprises in that city besides being one of the principal oficers of & German immigrant passen- ger agency and banking institution in Chicago. Colonel Anneka was & general officer in tho German revoluilonary army in 1843, and was one of the few cormanders in that memorable uprising against opjiression, whose troops cou- {fronted tho Upressm Tmperor of Germany on the field of Upstadt. THE FIELD AND STABLE. Thumps, or Ealpitation oithe Keart, in Hlorses—Its Canses and 'Syeatment — So-Called Big-Hecad and: Wolfl's« Teeth. From Our Own Correspondént. MasmATTAN, Ean., Dec, 6, 1272, THUMPS, OR PALPITATION IN HORSES. Thumps may be justly considered as one uf the most peculinr diseases that occur. It un- doubtedly is of & spasmodic nature, and mani- fests itself by a violent beating or thumping, isochronal with the beating of the heart and with the pulse, and can be felt all over the enimal, but usually proves to be most forcible in the flanks. It makes its appearance rather suddenly, and is attended, at lesst in tho begin- ning, with a more or less increased frequency of the pulsation ; the pulse, in some cases, is even accelersted to 60 or 70 beats in a minute: The appetite, t0o, is more or less dis- tarbed; and, in mady cdses, symptoms of uneasiness, resembling those of aslight colic, can be observed. Afterward, all indications of & general morbid affection disappear. The thamiping itself is frequently so violent as to shake the whole body, and is to the touch of the hand, put on the flauk, as though something solid was pushed rathor suddenly from within sgainst the wall of the abdominal cavity. Al- though there can scarcely be any doubt that this* peculiar thumping is connected with tha contractions of the heart, the auscultation of the thoraalo cavity does not reveal anything sbnor- mal; neither can we feel an uncommonly strong beating of _the heart by putting the hand gn the left side of the chest, just be- hind the elbow. The duration of this pecu- liar disease is generally a short ome, for the thumping, in & great many cases, disap- pears within a few hours, or, at les m(h.m two or three days, and only a few instancés have Dbeen observed in which it has continned as long as fourteen days. Repeated attacks seem to be a Tare occurrence. " CAUBES AND TREATMENT. The causes of Thumps are perfectly unknown. Bevere oxercise hasbeen accused a8 an exciting canse ; still, numerous cases are on record in which the disease has made its appearance with- out any observable csuse whatever. The few _post-mortem examinations that have been made ‘have not given anylight, for the morbid changes that have been found not only differed very widely in almost every case, but were also of such a character a8 to make any causal connec- tion, or relation, highly improbable. Pehr endeavored to find the cause in an acoumulation of blood in the heart and in the posterior aorta ; Pastney observed thumps after colic had pre- ceded ; Cartwright sccused s speamodicaction of the diaphragm, but did not explain the isochron- ism with the pulsation and the beating of the heart. It Cartwright's opinion was correct,then, one should judge, the thumping must_be simul- taneous with the inspiration, rather than with the beating’ of the heart. At post-morfem ex- aminations, he.found nothing that is able to snstain bis opinion, or that can have sny causal connection with the disease: be found rupture of the stomach and intussusception of the in- testines. BSansod accuses inflammation of the heart ; and Anker found at the post-moriem ex- aminationin one case i tory changes on the pluvis, and in another = inflamma- tion of the disphragm. Goubaux, in order to find the true cause, opene the thoracic cavity, introduced his arm, and con-~ vinced himself (?) that the thumping proceeded from the diaphragm; but Di:h(on£ who e~ peated the same experiment, conld not find any- thing abnormal on the disphragm, and_came to the conclusion that the thumping had its seat in the abnormal muscles. ouley considered Thumpa to be & neurotic disease of the heart; and Lafosse, who &xamined simultaneously the thumping, the beating of the heart, and the pul- sation, found all three perfectly isochronal, and declared_Thumps to be & palpitation of tha heart. Roell pronounces the disease a nervous disorder; and Frotorsor Hering, who had an op- ortunity to dissect an old stailion which had gied of a strangulated hernia, and had had, dur- ing his life, quite frequent sttacks of Thumps found nothing abnormal, either in the heart ang Iarge blood-vessels or in the diaphragm. A great many other suthors, also, were not ablo o tind anything that might possibly have acted as 8 canse. From all this negative and contra- dictory evidence, we necessarily have to come to the conclugion that the true cance is not yeb lmo and that Thumps must be considered as & functional disorder, till new facts shall have come to light. I, for my part, am inclined to look upon the thumping a8 a spasmodic action of the muscles of the abdamen, called forth by each new wave of blood driven into the arteries of those muscles; & theory, which, in my opinion, is the only one able to explain the forcibleness of the thnn‘;i'ling in the flanks, and the isochron- ism, or simultaneousness, of the same with the contractions of the heart. Tn regard to trestment, we are, for obvious reasons, in ebout the same fix. Thnmps have disappeared just as well where no medicines have been given, a8 where the animals have been _subjected to a medical treatment. Tho principal remedies that have been used are digitalis, extrsct hyoscyami, tariar emetic, cream tarter, and physics, such es aloes; bt the result, in all instances, has been nearly the gnme; that is, the Thumps have dissppeared; therefore, it must be considered very uncertain whether the different rémedies had any benefi- cial influence’or not. BO-CALLED BIG-HEAD AXD WOLF 8-TEETH. Verenmoamioe St Having had good suscess to uite an extent from the advice which you gave me on o swelling of {ho. pastern-joint, I thought T would consult yon again. My young pacer hasa gwelling on the nase, which }as all the appearance of the so-called Big-Head. I think, however, the ent of the Toso is caused by Blind Teeth which he has. Would it Dot b better to pull them than to break then off ? and is ho not most 00 young to interfers with them yet? Please give mo your advice through TaE TRIBUNE. With great Tespect, your humblo geryunt, A J. COuNTRTIAN. P, §,—From the treatment which you prescribed, tho onlargement of the pastern-folnt 13 gradually dis: appearing, and I think that by tho time he arrives 1o 5 years, there will exist but very litile swelling. Answer to A. J. Countryman : If the so-called “Big-Head” is yet in its incifient stage, I would advise you to give your colt, aspocialiy if the same is a greedy eater, a wide manger with very elanting sides, go that the lateral surfaces of the superior maxillary bones, which, in colts, are very thin and tender, may mot be injured. s a madical treatment, I would advise you to apply about brico o woel an_ointment of ‘binio- dide of mnxcnx"y :20). The so-called Blind- Teeth,” or “W ol(.fl'a- ‘eoth,” are innocent, and o not need to be removed. The sume are found in a great many horses, and cause neither * Big- mag‘r’ nor inxnmmfion of the eyes.
