    A Talk About Mules.

OniHKAnVCONCUlTION UFTIIKqUAD
HUl'KI). It Is only among somo of tlio Latin
raoos, as lu Spain anil Portnijal and in
tlio Eist, that the mnlu and his aire, tlio
nm, aro npprootntcd at their trim value.
With tho nations of Gurmatio ili'ncuiit,
and moro particularly tho Anglo Saxon,
n perjudioo, as deeply rooted as it is ill
founded, prevents that familiar nffeo
tlonato atsoolalinn with tho ass and tho
inulo whioh dies so much to develop
tho finest instincts, and humanize, as it
wore, tho horse and tho dog. With us
horses aro bred for pleasure as well us
profit. Thoro is somo sentiment in tho
thing, and ono rarely parts with a lino
colt, at whntover price, without moro
ot less regret.
Tlieri' was a time, however, a few
ct'iiMiiii's sinue, when even in E'iglind
the mnlu was tho peer of hi tiriatoura
tio half brother, the horse ; wlion, clad
in magnillcant housings, ho proudly
boro upon his back tho abbots, the bish
ops, and tho princes of the all powerlul
Koman church, nor would this havo
been tho caso had lie not been deemed
by tho luxurious 'iiiil rt.-lf indulgent pre
lalus uf tha. Iij I'-fu sup 'iir lo
the lioisu (or llif purposes of too sad
dle. Even as lato as 1830 tho mule was
held lo bo an indispensable part of tho
appendago of tho Bottrbou dynasty of
1 ran ce, and whenever tho "court of
Charles X. moved from tho palace of
tho Tulleries to Complegno or Foil
tainobleau it was in coaches drawn at
a gallop of ten miles an hour by su
perb teams of Spanish mules, and such
mules 1 Near 10 hands high, matched
to a hair, glossy black in color, "mealy
mouthed," with legs and eyes like mi
telops, and showing in spirit action
and endurancotho generous Barb blood
of their maternal ancestry.
But to 8C0 tho mule at his best wo
Bhould go to tho sunny shores of the
Mcditorrencan to Spain and Portugal.
Tho Arabian denomination of 00
years on that great peninsula filled it
with horses of Arabian and Barb blood,
and this blood, to which wo attribute
tho best qualities of the modern race
horse, and paradoxical as it may
seem the sweet tomper, the broad
forehead, tho expressive eye, and beau
tiful ear of tho massive Percheron
flows, and freely, loo, in the veins of
tho Spanish mule, and imparts to him
au appearance as superior to American
mules bred for tho drudgery of our
Southern plantations as is that of the
kings ot the turt to tho coarsest Cones
toga. Whoever has had tho good fortune
to havo soeu the high strung and high
ly bred mules harnessed up to the trav
eling equipages of tbo Spanish king
dashing through the Puertadel Sol at a
ten mile gait or has encountered the
interminable processions of gayly cap
arisoned mules, bearing tho names of
all tho saints in tho calendar, threading
with unerring feet the dangerous de
files of the Pyrenees and tho Sierra
Morena, to the sound of innumerable
tinkling bells, will cease at once and
forever to object to tho mule on the
score of his appearance ; and whoever
has seen the large, dark eyed, brown,
dirty, ragged, but beautiful children of
Andalusia gamboling as fearlessly and
with as much impunity under the heels
of tho mules with which they were
brought up as do the children in the
tenta of ; Arab among the- mares
will bo compelled to admit that with
tho same kind treatment the mule, too,
develop traits as near akin to humanity
as tho dog and the horse.
Wo are inclined to believe that well
bred mules possess undeveloped qual
ities for both quick draught and the
saddle, for which the general public is
not inclined to givo them credit, and
we are convinced from actual observa
tion that for light quick draught over
long distances and continuous from day
to day, and for saddle gaits, mules out
of thoroughbread marcs by the best
Maltese jack aro fully equal and per
haps superior to our averago light
draught and saddle horses.
We remember a pair of mules, bred
by ono of the Shelbys, in Kentucky,
that drew a carriage containing fiyo
heavy men forty miles over an ordi
nary road in fivo hours without turning
a hair or crack .of tho whip, and re
turned tho next day with ;qual ease
and in the same time.
In 1836 wo saw on Red river, La.,
$700 paid for a saddle mules that could
pace at tho rate of ten miles an hour
for hours together.

PATCH S FATAL I.KAl' O.NK OF ITS
ItUSINKSS IIOUSI'.S AND US
UlltlAT JIAIINITIIDK.
Tho present flood, whioh aro either
devastating or threatening tho country
In every direction, aro justly oauso lor
apprehension. No in, liter whether
they como suddenly or by slow degrees,
they are, in cither case, a great ovil niid
much to bo dreaded, and yet America
will nlways bo troubled liy'tliiHu spiing
ovei flows. Probably one of the most
disastrous that was ever known, oc
curred in Rochester, N. Y , about
twenty years ago. The (leniee river,
just nbovo the lulls, where Sam Patch
made his final and fatal leap, Incamo
completely blockaded by ice, forming au
impassable dam, and the water coming
down the Gem sit river ovetll'Wed I tie
prino'i pott ion ut the citv of lloehcs
ter This catastrophe wouid haw been
repeated tho present year had not the
energy nnd foresight of the city author
ities prevented It. Tlio writer happen
ed to bo in Rochester nt that time nnd
wm groatly interested in the manner in
which this'grcat catastrophe was avert
i d, Everv few nmliH'tiis, a roar like
til jiod of bun I I oi llir biionil ,g of
cannon would be bond, and u onli-r
to see this ice blasting prociss tho writ
er went to the top of tho new Winner
building, which oveilo iks the Ueneseo
river. From here he was not only
enabled to see tho process uninterrupt
edly, but also the maguificant building
which has just beun completed. This
is unquestionably tho finest building
devoted to business nnd manufacturing
purposes in Amenoa, being entirely
fireproof, eight stories high, and con
tabling over four and n quarter acres of
flooring. Mr. Warner treated your
correspondent very courteously, nnd
iu the course of tlio conversation
said :
"Wo aro doing a tremendous busi
ness aro far behind in our orders. This
is tho season of tho year when people,
no matter how strong their constitu
tion may be, feel, more or less, tho pain
and indisposition, the headaches, colds,
neuralgia, rheumatism, dull pains, sore
throats, coughs all the 1,001 ills that
flesh is heir to come this time of the'
year, if at all. It is tntural, therefore,
that we should be very busy. 1 his is
especially truo of our Safe Rheumatics
Cure, and it is crowding us very sharp
ly for a new remedy."
"Singular, but I bad forgotten that
you do not advertise to cure all diseas'
es from one bottle, ni is done generally
by many other medicine men, but I
supposed Warner's Safe Curo was for
the cure of rheumatism.1'
"And so it has been until our remedy
which was especially for rheumatism
and neuralgia, was introduced. Wo
have been three years perfecting this
new remedy. Study first taught us
there were certain powerful elements
in Warner's Safe Cure, better known as
Warner's Safe Kidney and Liver Cure,
ihnt made wonderful cures iu chronic
nnd acute rheumatism, but during om
investigation, wo learned of a remaik
able cure at a celebrated springs and
put experts to investigate and found
that the springs did uot contain any
valuable properties, but the cours'o of
treatment that was being given thero
was performing all tho benefit. Hy
carefully combining the active princi
ples of this remedy with our Safe Cure,
we havo produced our Safe Rheumatic
Cure, and tho cures it is effecting are
simply wonderful, and I do not doubt
it will becomo as popular as our Safe
Cure."
"You seem to talk freely in regard to
your remedy and appear to havo no
secrrts, Mr. Warner."
"None whatever. The physician
with his hundred calls and ono hundred
diseases, is necessarily compelled to
guess at a great deal. We aro enabled
to follow up and perfect, while physi
cians can only experiment with their
hundred patients and hundred diseases.
With the ordinary physician, the code
hinds him down, so that if he makes a
discovery, he is bound to givo it to the
other physicians, which, of course, dis
courages investigition, to a great ex
tent. This is why the great discover
ies in medical science of lato years havo
boon made by chemists and scientists
nnd not by physicians, and it in a
measuro accounts for the great value of
our remedies, also for the remarkable
success of all those doctors who make
a specialty of ono or two diseases.''
"And you find that you are curing
as great a number of people as ever bo
foret"
"Yes, a far greater number. We
never sold so much of our medicine as
now and nover knew of so many re
markable cures."
The writer departed after the above
interview, but was greatly impressed,
not only by tho sincerity of Mr. War
ner, but by the vastness of all ho saw.
Mr. Warner's medicines aro used
throughout tho entire length and breadth
of tho land, and wo doubt not tho re
sult they aro leally as wonderful as they
aro related to be.

The Commission on Vork.
Tho Commission appointed to inves
tigate tlio industries relating to Ame
rican hogs lias finished the task assign
ed to it. Tlio report is signed by Mr.
George B. Loring, chairman of tlio
board i Mr. K W. lilatchford, cf
Chicago ; Professor Chandler, of New
Yoik j Dr. D. E Salmon, of the De
partment of Agriculture, and Mr. F.
D. Curtis of New York. The mem
bers of tho Commission appear to havo
done their work very thoroughly, hav
ing pursued their inquiries into the
origin and history of hogs which make
up tho market supply, their condition
on farms, tho methods of management,
transporting, treatment at stock-yards,
manner of slaughtering, curing, pack
ing, handling nnd shipping of pork
products, the effect and extent of hog
disease necessary preventive measures
and effect of curing process on trichinae.
The methods of breeding and rearing
and fattening of swino in tlio great
hog-producing regions are elaborately
set forth, and tho leport is emphatic
that thero is no condition surrounding
tho industry which tends to propagate
disease or tender pork uuhealthful. It
finds tho number of hogs raised annual
ly to be about thirty millions, making
a total of cured meats, lard and other
products of 4,720,000.000 pounds.
From returns from railroad and
transportation compauies, slaughter
houses, packers and shippers, continued
by those from boards of health, hu
mane societies and experts employed
hy tho Commission, it appears that the
utmost care is preserved throughout j
that hogs whioh dio of disease aro never
transported except to offal rendering
establishments ; that diseased hogs aro
refused transportation ; that humane
laws nnd sanitary regulations exist at
all stock-yards, enforced by local in
spectors under penalty of tines, etc. ;
that rigid scrutiny is enjoined nt nil
slaughter-houses j that methods of
slaughter and packing, qualities of
material used, inspection, i tc , are re
gulated b'y rules of chauib rs of com
merce and of trade, and constant care
is exercised to see that no uuhealthful
means aro employed iu any branch.
Of tho extent of diseases, preventive
measures and the effect of salt on tri
chinae, tho report is full of valoablo
and interesting information. Even tho
extremely small percentagoof trichima
sis, iu shown by tho investigations of
the Agiioultnr.il Department, eenis to
be largely removed by process of cur
ing. The degree of heat neeossaiy
to render pork harmless is trotted of at
length.
Tlio Commission deny that hog
cholera is dangerous to human health,
and assert tho impossibility of curing
such meat even so as to deceive the
most superficial examinei. The report
points out the practicability of u micro
scopio inspection, if such is necessary
to remove existing restrictions. Tho
Commissioners state that their exami
nation proves our pork fully equal,
perhaps superior, to that of Franco or
Germany i no general disease exists,
and the occasional presence of trichinae
is comparatively unimportant.
This is oertaiiily a very satisfactory
showing, Much of our corn is consum
ed by hogs and thus made marketable :
so much pork is used at home, and our
pork products make up so large a share
of our exports, that it is absolutely es
sential thai the Industry should hn be
yond attack in all its branches W. Y,
