    jifffrnThiltal Reiariment
ORO of Horses' Feet.
The sole ought to be kept a little
lower than the edge of the wall, so as
to prevent it from pressing on the
shoe, but it must not Ibe very much
thinned. Some people are very Iv-,
gent in directing it ttio be closely par.'
ed, for- • the 'purpose of making it
_ _more elastic. There l ean be , no grew.
ter drawback, however, - than a thin
sole. It should alic'eys .be left as
', thick . and strong as circumstances
will permit. It will ,then answer its
intended purpose ofkirotecting the
internal parts of,the foot from inju
rions locai pressure. i When the toes
are disposed to gro7 long, and the
heels deep, they ought both to be
- .well
_pared. If this ' s
attended, to,
the foot will presery its proportions
remarkably well. *toe that is too
long is uncomfortable and unsafe.
Walking, over it will fatigue the
horse; and if the the is not lifted
high, the animal will, be likely to
strike it against'stones on the road.
The heel shohldle Iwered to a rea
sonable extent , butt i e
paring must
be,cohtlned entirely I to the ground
surface. The wall 4the back of the
heel and at they edges of the frog
: ' should not be touched with a knife.
' Opening outthe heels, as it is called,
• is a most reprehensible practice: It
means cutting away the sides , Of the
d bars, so as Co show an apparent "in
, '„crease of width between the he-V,
_ which may for a table deceive 'the
,aeye'; but it is a mere illusion, pur
chased at .the expense of" impaired
power of resistance ih the bars, and
' ' ultimete Contraction of the foot.. It
' is self-evident, that tie regretting of
,_ any portion from the sides of the
bars must diminish their substance,.
and render them wea er, and conse
quently less able to 'resist contrac- ,
. tion. These parts are intended to be
lire], solid, and unyieding, and there
- fore they ought to kept as strong
bi l
--' as possible. As cos are produced
by the pressure of th shoe upon the
- sole, the smith must be careful hot
to weaken the bars r- the crust at
the piece where they occur. If the
r 3
crustare and bars i the slightest de
gree weakened. they will yield under
the weight fof the orse, and thus
• press so injiriously n the interven
ing sole that corns re nearly certain
to result. By the ischievous inter
ference of,ert, the protruding, plump,
elastic cushion, inte'osed by nature
' between the navicul r joint and the
- ground, and so esse tial to its pres
ervation from injury, is converted in
ifi
to the dry, shrunk, nyiebling apolo
gy for a frog to be seen In -the foot
of almost every horse that has been
,
regularly shed for a few years. This
•
shrinkage of the frog is the result,
not only of the use of the knife, but
it is also a eonsequence of shoeing
, without the assistance of the' icnifo.
Indeed, , shoeing seems almott -to
check its growth entirely in the gen
erality of the feet; for if we compare
• the size of the frog with the circum
ference of the footin a horse accus
. tomed to be shod, we shall' find the
space occupied by it:, will not exceed
one-tenth, or even one-twelfth, of the
,whole circumferencO•, whereas, in the
'natural and unshodfoot, it occupies
about one sixth. The evident prac
tice,i'then, should . be, to leave the
frog entirely alone,.und never allow
a knife to touch it. Nature will re
move the superfluous horn, and the
• - rags can do no harm; and if Irma
' lesteg; they will Sohn wear off and
disappear altogether.—National Lice
Stock Journal. 1 .
Whatever may be thought' as •to
the proper time for hauling and
spreadine manure, the fact will ye
main that farmers as a class will
haul in the winter season when there
is comparatively little to do. There
is no doubt but that manure, if it
could be 'hauled to the fields and
spread as fast as made, would, on the
whble be preferable.
- Many farmers. who carefully save
their manure lose largely by the slip
shod manner in which they allow the
hands to distribute it in the field.
'f he of the 'wagon bed for
hauling is composed of wide pr nar
, row planks, as the case may be.
'these are pulled away; allowing the
manure to fall, if fine enough
_to . the
groUnd—one, two or three heaps to .
theload, of irreaular shapes and at
irregular.intervals. The consequence
Ls, when the field is planted or down,
the crop isirregular as the piles, and
' 'thick or thin on the ground, and in
pitches, as the case may be: What
ever the size of • the heaps, they
should be as compact as possible, and
eldse.enough so that no bare places
be-left in the spreading.
One special objection to the plan
of leaving manure, in the heaps id
that, when laid on frozen ground, o
whenthe soil freezes under the ma
nure, it will not thaw out in time foi
early crops. There will be' frost un
der the heap's for a long_ time after
all the other land is settled and fit
for crops. On the whole, we would
advise'the spreading of manure di
rectly from the wagon as 'hauled, if
it be green or strawy. When the
manure is in the shape of compost,
or thoroughly br4sken down: or :welt
rotted manure that has been saved
so that the most of its soluble parts,
remain — it should only be used as a
top dressing or to be . ploughed light
ly under. It is often inconvenient
to haul in the spring. In this case
place it in compact, conical . Tiles,
close together and at equal distances
, apart: Thus it will be round pretty
intact in the spring. if this is dose
the piles - should be pried over, if the
land is to be used early in the spring,
or the piles should be broken up that
the air can.have free access to the
soil underneath where- the manure
has laid.- thus the soil beneath will
be thawed as soon as the field is ,fit,
*. for ploughing. Those who have_ tried
to plough a field where the land re
mained - frozen under the heaps of
manure will appreciate the force of
the suggestion we have given. Those
who have carefully saved andapplied
theiemanttre from year to year will.

bor bestowed.—Ex. •

During the late commencement
Princeton College address 'was deli
ered by General Wm: - T. Sherman. He
Spoke at some length of the life and char
teeter of the late Joseph Henry, who 'at,
one time held a professoes chair at Prince-'
ton. The soldier speak of the scientist
in a way that does credit alike to his head
and his heart. Men talk flippantlyof thei
atheism of science, of the "confliet ., be
tween science and religion,"—and the re
sult of such -studies does now and then
seem to be skepticism for-weak or ill-bal
ancedmindS. But amid this noisy clam
or of tongues, how grand it is to see the
foreknost' scientist of them all lift his head
venerable in wisdom above the chattering
crowd, and say with a quiet mien and
voice of calm : "Give place ! God nay . ; :
and there arc se c rets of being which man
cannot fathom." The following is an ab
stract of Gen. Sherman's remarks : 1
You once had here, as a member of
your Faculty Professor Joseph Henry, a
man of gentle demeanor, utterly unosten
-tatious, and free from arrogance of wis
dom, the very type of man ,which you ,
should ever hold up to your students as
an example of what industry and patient
research May accomplish. As a teacher,
he may have tortured some of you, who
long ago were his pupils, by exacting of
your memory the names, volumes, densi
ties and relative orbits of the planets of
the solar system, but must have delighted
yon by an explanation of Kepler's simple
laWin accordance with which the force
of vity holds each planet in its proper
place. Even now, think of the brain
work w ch for ages must have preceded
gr % \il
the discovery by Kepler of these few' gin
ciples outohe millions of plausibldsPec
ulatiOns de rived from the senses. : '
I feet sure there must ,be men in this
audience who firs t
. learned from Professor
Henry that the akr we breathe is composed
of SeveraLgases, any one of which is dead
'ly poisim, yet mingl together they.give
health and strength the body and elase
deity to the mind ; that heat pervades all
matter, - vonverts water\into steam, the
great motive power of maehinery, and yet 1
a little more than this bee es an explo
sive gas, rending bolts and bars asunder,
and spreading destructionrO about.
\ l und •
How beautiful were his thoughts and
words_when treating , of the harmonies of
sound and of light, and still more as he
penetrated deeper / and deeper into the
mysteries of the then now science-of elec
tricity. Of all men he seemed most in
spired With the feeling, "Nearer, my
God, _to Thee.". He knew that all science
emanates from the Creator, and is gov
erned by universal and unchangeable law,.
and that - man is freely invited to seek and
discover. Quietly, - in - `his modest study
here at Princeton, 'ho developed, by known
methods, electricity in quantities so limi
ted-that he could bine it and handle it
to his use. He knob that hardened steel
would become a permanent, tedgn, et by a
certain use of the electric current, and no.
ticed that soft iron wan ' only a magnet
whilst the current was continuous, but in
stantly lost its powers when the current
was broken. Here was discovery! Here
was new knowledge never 'before attained
by the 'strongest intellect of bygone ages.
The simple horse shoes surrounded by in
sulated wire, through which could be
. passed at will a current of electricity, be
came a magnekattracting with force and
certainty another piece of iron, heti on
breaking the cirouit its whole nature

magnetic telegraph Which has revolution

business and , affection at every man's
door, and now carries information and

Not his the nature to profit by this dis
covery. All was freely / given by hink to
the world without price and without `fa
vor. Others reaped the pecuniary reward
but to him and his be the glory and .the
fame. Important as was this discovery,,
itonly opened a new volum yrAltili trans
cendent series of developments in, the isci
once of galvanic electricity, which now
measures time and longitude; the velocity
of projectiles, records the tmnsiNt stars,
and has become as necessary in oar daily
business transactions as the pen or prin
ter's type. In all this progreis Professor
Henry took a prominent part,

ty of his character, -the precision and
grandeur of his knowledge, and his pol

Best in the world, I cannot help but bow
In: reverence to the pia -spot—
Avhere, in this humble study, these grand
laws of nature *became known) I and were
first proclaimed to the world. '
I knew Professor-Henry well in his lat
er years, when associated with him as Re
gent of the Smithsonian Institution at
Washington, and have listened with ex
gnisite pleasure to his explanations of the
most-complicated phenomena of nature.
I have heard his associates relate how,
wheia our country was agitated' by politi
cal strife ; when Congressmen, Judges,
and even soldiers ! broke their solemn
oaths to take sides in angry war; when
civil war had arrayed father against son,
brother against brother ; when the Smith
sonian was made to resound with the con-
tinuous-passage of artillery, infantry and
cavalry ; when very pandemonium seemed
let loose upon our afflicted country--this
quiet, modest, brave man went on in his
familiar. way, elaborating naturatrnths,
and peering among the stare for the miss
ing quantities of the great orrery of ns
ture, with a simple-child-like faith which
demonstrated that his 'mind reached out
side the - storm-clouds raised by man's
passion and man's inhumanity.
lie knew that the sun remained true as
the centre of our system of worlds; that
the planets continued in their alloted or
bits; that day followed night ; that win
ter and surciner would come and go with
unchangeable regularity ; that the Wheat
would ripen and the roses bkoom as of old; .
that chemiCal affinities were not altered;
and finally that nature and nature's laws
were undisturbed by man's mLinels and
man's folly. He believed, and acted .on
that belief, that the gland principles of
our government were wise, Awneticknit
and true, and that God would; in his own
way, brink order Out of chaos . , subdue tleo
wild passions of men, and-Insure that the
right alone should prevail and endure for
ever. ;
I believe, bly man's faith nerved and
strengthened the stromi arm of our,
