His intense affection, his nat- ural jealousy, his method of attack, the blind- ness of his rage, and his insensibility to conse- auences, all bespeak a creature whose nervous eystem is devcloped to the highest possible de- gree. I myself once had a little cur, who, as I was reading, would enter the apartment, jump upon my kuee, uttering a low whimper all the time, creep along my waistcoat, rub his little body against my head and face, lick the hand lifted up to return his caresses. and then seam- per of, and perhaps not come near me again the whole of that afternoon. What was this bat an affectionate impulse seeking a nervous development? The way to manage an animal of this description is, to respect his evident ex- citability. ¢ instant a dog appears to be get- ting excited, there should be a sign given, com- inanding a stop to be put to all farther proeced- ings. If the respect of the animal be habitual, the person who mildly enforces it may enter 2 room, where the same dog is in a rabid state and come forth unseathed. I have hitherto been among dogs. and nevor- theless, have almost escaped being bitten. The reason is. that I understand and respect the in- uate nervousness of the animal. When I go into a room, if there be a dog there and he growl. I —_ kindly to him. and then seat myself, and bestow on him none of my attention for some time. My request to his master or mis- tress is, that he or she wil! not check or stop the symptoms of his wrath, but allow him to vent his rage until he is ashamed of it, and from a feeling of remorse is silent. When this takes place, and a sufficient time has passed to con- firm him in the new method into which he has recently entered, I approach him with my hand extended and open ; this I bring near to him by degrees, avoiding all sudden movements or any- thing that may provoke his natural disposition. tienerally he crouches, then I speak to him in tones of encouragement. If he displays his warlike propensity, I still bring the hand nearer and nearer to him, telling him to bite it if he please, if he is not ashamed to injure that which means to do him good. Then, perhaps, he will make asnap at my extended hand, which is not upon this with- drawn. or the jaws would close with nervous violence, but allowed to remain, and the tecth to touch the skin without wounding it. I allow him to hold the hand for any length of time he | pleases, telling him he would lose his character if he were to harm it. That he is a courageous and means no hurt; he would be ashamed to bite.” And with this kind of speech, which the animal may not literally understand, but the sense and purpose of which he nevertheless appears to understand. I seldom fail of getting iy hand safe and sound from thecreature’s jaws. After that I may pat him for an intimacy has begun. He allows me to drag him forth, take him on my knees, and permits me any liberty I please to take. I do not attribute my ezca io any charms that I possess; but account for it simply by knowing and respecting the natu- ral temperament of tho beast. This natural respect for the feclings of a most affectionate creature, with such a power of ob- servation as will enable the individual to rec. ognize the presence of lamentable sickness in an animal that has with truth been called “the companion of the house.”’ shall at all times en- able the uneducated in such matters to recog- nise a mad dog, and, unlessluck bedead against the individual, save him from being bitten. It is no pleasure toa dog to gomad. Quite the reverse. Dreadful a3 hydrophobia may be to the human being, rabies is worse to the dog It makes its approach more gradually. It lasts longer and is more intense while it endures The dog that is going mad, feels unwell fora long time prior to the full development of the disease. He is wory ill, bat he does not know what ails him. He feels nasty; dissatisfied with every thing ; vexed without a reason; and, greatly against his betternature, very snappish. Feeling thus, he longs to avoid all ‘annoyance by being alone. This makes him seem strange to those who are most accustomed to him The sensation induces him to seck sulitude. But there is another reason which decides his choice of a resting place. The light inflic' upon him the most intense agony. The sun is t» him an instrument of torture, which he therefure studies to avoid, for his brain aches and feels a3 if it were a trembling jelly. This uces the poor brute to find out the holes and corners where he is least likely to be noticed, and into which the light is unable to enter. In s»litude and darkness he passes the day. If his retreat is discovered aot the master’s voice Lids him to come forth, the affectionate crea- ture’s countenance brightens, his tail beats the greand. and he leaves hiding-place, anxious ww obey the loved authority ; but before he has gone halt the distance a kind of sensation comes over him, which produces an instantancous change in his whole uppearance. He seems to sey t himself, -- Why can’t you let me alone ? Go away. Do go away. You trouble. you pain me.’ And thereon he suddenly turns and darts back into his dark corner. If let alone, there be will remain; perhaps frothing a little at the mouth, and aemakine agreat deal of water. but not issuing from his hiding place t seek after fuod. His appetites are altered; hair, straw, dirt, filth, excrement, rags, tin shavings, stones, the most noisome and unnatu- ra! substances are then the delicacies fur which the poor dog. changed by disease, longs for and swallor in he to ease a burning stomach He is now altogether changed. Suil he does not desire to bite mankind ; he rather endcay » avoid socie he takes long journeysof thir- in extent, and lengthened by lents, to veut his restless desire for motion. When on these journ he does not walk. This would be too tormal and meas- urela pace for an animal whose whole frame quivers with excitem He ‘8 not run. “that would be too vreat an exertion for an ani- mal whose body is the abode of a deadly sick- ness. He prow na slouching manner, in a kind of trot; a movement neither a run or walk, and his aspect is dejected. His eyes do not glare and stare. but they are dull and re- tracted. His appearance fs very characteristic, and if once seen can never afterwards be mis- taken. In this state he will travel the most dusty roals. his tongue banging dry from his open mouth, from which however, there drops nv foam His coursegp not straight.

His state of suffering is most pitiable. Ho has lost all self-reliance; even feeling is gone. He flies at and pulls to pieces anything that is within his reach. One animal in this condition, being confined near a fire. flew at the burning mass, este out the live coals, and in his fury serunched them. He emits the most hideous cries. The noise he makes is incessant and pe- culiar. It begins as a bark, which sound, being too torturing to be continued, is quickly changed to a howl, which is suddenly cut short in the middle; and so the poor wretch at last falls, fairly worn out by this terrible disease.

Decreaseix THe Number or Horsesin tae West. —When railroads were first instituted in this country, it was feared by many that the rear- ing of horses—at that time a great source of pro- fit to the farmer—would be greatly imared by breaking up the market for stage horses. But while the demand for horses has fallen off in this respect, the railroads have opened a new and important branch of trade to the farmer, more profitable than that of rearing horses. We refer tobeef-cattle. Before railroads were established. cattle in the West brought but a small price to enable the drover to meet the expense of 2 long journey on foot tothe eastern market, and com- ee with eastern-reared cattle. Now they can carried su speedily and at so small a price. a great extent, to the had much todo with the deerease in the number of horses in the country, until the price of good horses has advanced, within ten years, one or two hundred per cent. We have nodata at hand to ascertain the com- yeoues unmber of horses now in Kentucky or Missouri with any former period, but there is evidently a large falling off. But from the re- turns of the Assessors of Ohio to the State Aud- itor’s office, it is ascertained, that within the last three years, the falling off in the number of horses in that State is upwards of 11,000. In Isf4.there were 652.593. In 1855,there were 621,796. In 1856, the number is reduced to 501,443. The number will still be diminished the present year, not only by the regular trade. but the great demandand high price in the new West will draw of all that can be spared. — Valley Farmer. fe a ee [7 A ludicrous {tem of testimony was squeez- ed out of a village gullagtat Medina, inthe course of the coroner's investigation.
