Let sailors sing of the windy deep,
Let soldiers praise their armor,
But in my heart this toast I'll keep,
The Independent Fanner.
When first the rose, in robe of green,
Unfolds its crimson lining,
And 'round his cottage porch is seen
The honeysuckle twining,
When banks of bloom their sweetness yield,
To bees that gather honey,
He drives across the field,
Where skies are soft and sunny.
The blackbird clucks behind the plow,
The quail pipes loud and clearly,
Yon orchard hides behind its bough
The home he loves so dearly ;
The gray old barn, whose doors enfold
His ample store in measure,
More rich than heaps of hoarded gold,
A precious, blessed treasure ;
But yonder in his porch there stands
His wife, the lovely charmer,
The sweetest rose on all his lands ;
The Independent Farmer.
To him the spring comes dancing gay,
To him the summer blushes,
The autumn smiles with yellow ray,
His sleep old winter hushes ;
He cares not how the world may move,
No doubts or fears confound him,
His little flock are linked in love,
And household angels 'round him ;
He trusts in God, and loves his wife,
Nor grief nor ill may harm her ;
He's nature's nobleman in life—
The Independent Fanner.
The Cattle Plague of the Old World-
While the dreaded cholera is making its
way steadily and relentlessly from its Ori
ental home to the countries of the West,
another pestilence, apparently one of the :
plagues of Ancient Egypt, " the murrain of j
cattle," is preceding it, apparentlyjto "pre-;
pare the way and make the paths straight."
A year ago it was in Egypt, aud 1,700,000
cattle perished from the herds ot that couu- :
try. Passing round the Mediterranean, it i
made its way northward into Russia and :
the countries on the Danube. Poland, Sile
sia, Gallicia, Hungary, Austria. Bohemia
and Moravia were visited and depopulated
of their cattle with astonishing rapidity.—
In the eagerness to avoid a total loss the j
owners of neat stock sold a large number !
of their animals to be transported to Ham-!
burgh, and thence to England
WHAT IS THE CATTLE PLAGUE ?
The English dairymen name the new ep
idemic the " Russian murrain," because its
first appearance in Europe was noticed in
the autocrat's dominions, and it was con
veyed thence to Great Britain. Like the
Russian plague, which so alarmed Western
Europe a few months since, it is a species |
of typhus of very malignant character.— j
One writer declares that it is the well I
known Rinderpest of the continent." A j
correspondent of the London Times, vvri
ting from Vienna under date of Aug. 7th,
says that is called the Lungenseche or pul
monary disease, and discourses concerning ;
it as follows :
" The first symptoms of pneumonia peco- j
rum ejnzootica typhosa are dolefuluess and
feebleness, with difficulty in breathing.— ;
The animals stand with their heads hang
ing down ; their ears pendulous, their eyes j
fixed. The inner skin of the nose is pale, I
the inner part of the mouth slimy ; the
body, horns, ears and legs are cool, the
skin is dry, and the hair rough and bristly.
The first stage of the malady, during which
there is little or no fever, lasts from a fort
night to three weeks. The symptoms dur
ring the second stage are feverish move
ments, violent shiveriugs and exacerbation
towards the evening ; increased difficulty
in breathiug, with a dry, hollow, spasmodic
cough. In very many cases there is no
cough during the first stage of the malady. '
The appetite is generally good, though the j
animals ruminate but little. The cow gives !
as much milk as usual, but it is thin and of |
a bluish color. As the malady progresses
the animals get very weak and faint;
sometimes the extremities are hot, some
times they are cokl ; the hair on the back
and withers stands on end ; the eyes are
red and wide open, the neck and head are
stretched out, the execretious are partially
suppressed. The second stage, during
which there is still a chance that the ani
mal may be saved, lasts four or five days.
The third stage during which the fever as
sumes a putrid character, need not be de
scribed, as it invariably ends with death.
HISTORY OF THE CATTLE PLAGUE.
Such murrains have occurred over and
over again in Europe, and an infectious dis
temper is supposed to prevail permanently
among the vast herds which are pastured
iu Siberia and on the steepes of Asia. It
depopulated the pasturages of the conti
nent iu the time of Theodosius ; it followed
Charlemagne back from Denmark, and made
havoc of the French herds ; it scourged
Europe in the years 817, in 1224, and again
iu 1625. The worst instances of all, how
ever, occurred from 1710 to 1717. On that
occasion the steppe-murrain passed byway
of Tartary, Russia, and Poland, all over the
West ; aud in the first three years 1,500,-
000 oxen perished.
In 1745 it prevailed in Zealand ; in 1770
Holland lost in one year 375,441 of her
horned cattle ; and in 1794 it followed Na
poleon into Italy, and Piedmont alone paid
for his march with 3,500,000 head. Faust,
in the Feuille du Cultivate itr, estimates the
loss to France and Belgium, between 1713
and 1796, at the enormous total of 10,000,-
000 animals. In 1806, when the Cossacks
of the Don mustered on the Vistula, their
bullocks brought the pestilence again, and
' Schwarzenberg's invasion of France, at the
head of the allied forces, in 1813, imported
it. Wherever, indeed, war has broken
down the barriers of sanitary measures,the
plague, if existing iu the East, has forced
its way ; and iu the Crimean campaign it
thus penetrated to the cattle pens of the
French and English armies.
It is related that in 1745 the same pesti
lence crossed the sea in a parcel of distem
pered hides from Zealand, which were for
bidden a sale there, and should have been
buried ; but a covetous knave sold thcitf
for leather, and the plague struck the cat
tle and spread from Essex all over the
kingdom. On that occasion it raged for
twelve whole years, but not till the third
year did the government take up the mat
ter so seriously as to order that every in
fected animal should be instantly destroyed
and in this way alone 80,000 head were
killed and paid for, while at least 160,000
died of the malady.
In 1747, 40,000 perished in Nottingham
shire and Leicestershire, and 30,000 iu Che
shire within six months. Delafonde com
putes the loss of stock by that visitation
in Europe at 3,000,000.
EXTENT OF THE I'RESE.N'T EPIDEMIC.
Last, year this disease.* was raging at the
same time; in Europe, at the Cape of Good
Hope, Natal, New South Wales, Victoria
and South Australia. In Victoria, where it
was very bad, the government took whole
sale measures and killed the diseased ani
mals right and left, iu add i - ion to stringent
precautions.
Still the disease spread. In South Aus
tralia the government, directly they heard
the disease was in a neighboring colony,
took prompt measures to stop all cattle
crossing the Victorian borders. Still, like
the cholera, the disease advanced, aud in a
few weeks penetrated hundreds of miles
into the heart of the colony.
A letter irom Alexandria says that :
" The cattle distemper raged in the coun
try the last year. In the course of a lew
months there died in Egypt 800,000 oxen,
and as many sheep, goats, catnels, &c.—
Three fourths of these animals were thrown
into the Nile whose water is here the only
drink ; for, with the exception of the Foun
i tain of Moses, there is not a single spring
iin Egypt In the month of October last the
j dogs of Damietta could cross the Nile with
j out wetting their paws, over a bridge forru
|cd by the corpses of cattle. Agents of the
Isthmus Suez Company have assured me
that they found it impossible to prevent
the fellahs from choking their fresh water
canal with dead animals. The Egyptian
Government not having itself taken any
measures in this respect, their authority
was paralyzed, and the fellahs preferred
occasionally receiving a few blows to dig
ging a bole for the burial of animals that
died of disease."
ITS INTRODUCTION' INTO ENGLAND.
A correspondent of the London Times,
writing from Vienna, says that about the
beginning of May a great many oxen were
purchased in Moravia, Bohemia and Silesia
and sent by rail to Hamburgh. When the
oxen were bought, the sellers were told
they were for the London market. Th
murrain had not long been prevalent in
Austria, and therefore it was not unlikely
that the above mentioned cattle introduced
the malady into England. The symptoms
j of the malady which the correspondent de
| scribes appear to be slightly different from
! the disease which has broken out in Eng-
I land. The disease has been very bad in
the vicinity of Maidenhead, and a meeting
was held whereat it was determined topre
| sent petitions on the subject to the Privy
I Council and Lord Palmerston. The loss of
the London dairymen has been estimated
iat $150,000. Two thousand cows perished
iu a single month. Arthur Helps, clerk of
the Privy Council, thus describes the mat
ter :
" There has lately appeared iu some of
I the dairies in and near London a disease
i among the cattle closely analogous to, if
i not the same, as that which has of late
' years prevailed exteusively in Russia, Aus
-1 tria, and the eastern parts of Europe, call
ed the cattle plague, being a species of ty
phoid fever. The loss of animals caused
by it in those countries has been very se
rious. Returns have been furnished to
this office by which it appears that in 1864,
; 159,476 cattle were attacked by this dis
| in Russia, out of which 104,714 died.
It is of the first importance that all farmers,
i cowkeepers, or dealers in cattle, when pur
| chasing new stock should for several days,
not less than twelve or fourteen, keep their
cattle apart from the rest of their stock,
until, in fact, there is room to think that
j the new purchases are free from this dis
t ease. If a farmer, cowkeeper or salesman
{ should be desirous to get rid of any ani
mals suffering from the disease in question,
j or any which may have been in close con
tact with animals suffering from that dis
| ease, it should be impressed upon him as a
i public duty, that at the present juncture he
! should not send them to markets or other
places they would be brought into contact
with other animals, but should cause them
to be slaughtered at ouce, and thus do
what he can to prevent the spreading of
the disease. Particular attention should
be paid to the cleansing of all yards, sheds,
and other places were cattle are kept ; and
this cleansing should be especcially insist
ed upon where there has been any manifes
tation of this disease. These places should
i be disinfected by the free use of chloride of
| lime, or allied compounds. It is also of
; great importance that all diseased animals
| should be as quickly as possible removed
to as great a distance from the healthy as
circumstances will allow."— The Country

Farmers' Tools.
j A certain number of tools and some skill
in their use, will often save th<? farmer
j much time in sending for a mechanic, aud
1 some expense in paying him. Every far
• j mer should be able to make small repairs
■| on his wagons, gates, buildings, Ac. A
I room, or a portion of a room, should be de
! voted to keeping these tools ; a pin or nail
j should be inserted for each one to hang on,
■ j and the name of each tool written or paint
' ed under the pin, that it may be promptly
{ returned to its place, and any missing one
detected. Keep every tool in its place—
• do not wait for a more convenient season,
' but return every one to its pin the moment
it is done with. If left out of place a min
! ute, it will be likely to remain a week, and
' cause a loss of time in looking for it, a hun
-1 dred times greater than in replacing it
" promptly. Keeping everything in its place
I* is a habit, costing nothing when formed.—
The tools should be, a hammer, saw, auger,
5 brace and bits, gimlets, screw driver,
" Wrench, two planes, chisels, mallet, files,
ra6p, saw-set, trowel, aud a box with com
-1 partments for different sized nails, screws,
: nuts, bolts, Ac. Common farm implements
' and tools, such as hoes, spades, shovels,
I forks, rakes, scythes, Ac., may be in the
> same room, on the opposite side, and the
! same precautions taken to keep every one
' in its place.— Tucker's Rural Affairs.
i
r Regularity in Feeding
-1 ■
3 Every good farmer knows that any do-
J mestic animal is a good clock—that it
i knows, almost to a minute, when the regu
-3 lar feeding time has arrived. If it has
1 been accustomed to be fed with accuracy
t at the appointed period, it will not fret till
. that period arrives ; after which it becomes
very restless and uneasy until its food
. comes. If it has been fed irregularly, it
. will begin to fret when the earliest period
. arrives. Hence, this fretting may be en
! tirely avoided, by strict punctuality ; but
! it cannot be otherwise. The very moment
. | the animal begins to worry, that moment it
3 begins to lose flesh ; but the rate of this
c loss lias never been ascertained—it is cer
i tainly worthy an investigation—and can
. only be determined by trying the two modes
. punctuality and irregularity, side by side,
j under similar circumstances, and with the
; same amount of food, for some weeks or
) montfiß together.
There is one precaution to be observed in
- connection with regular feeding, where
- some judgment is needed. Animals eat
• more in sharp or frosty, than in warm and
i damp weather. Ileuoe, if the same amount
by weight is given at every feeding, they
will not have enough when the weather is
cold, and will be surfeited when it is warm
and damp. Both of these evils must be
avoided, while a little attention and obser
vation will enable the farmer to do it.—
