Hi, I V I M I
SATURDAY MORNING, JULY 1, 1871.
OUT OFTIIE OLD HOUSE, NAXCY.
BT WILL. U. CARLET0N.
Out of the old bouse, Nancy moved up Into tho
new
All the hurry sod worry aro Just as good as
inrnugn i
Only a bounden duty remains for you and
And that's to stand on the door-step, here, and
om tue oiu iiouse gooa-Dyc,
What a shell we've lived !n these nineteen or
twenty years !
Wonder it hadu't smashed iu and tumbled about
our ears
Wonder it stuck together nnd answered till to
on v.
But every individual log was put tip here to stay
Things looked rather new, though, when this old
honso was built,
And things that blossomed you, wonld'vo mado
some women win I
Aud every other day, then, as sure ae day would
Drcax,
My neighbor Agcr come this way, Invltln' ine to
shaKc."
And yon, for want of neighbors, was sometimes
uiue ana sna.
For wolves and bears aud wildcats was the near
est ones you hud I
But, lookin' ahead to the clcariu,' wo worked
wuu nil our iirnrni.
Until wo was fairly out of the woods, nnd thlncs
was goiu' ngni.
Look up there at our new hou60 1 ain't it a tiling
to seu i
Tall aud big and handsome, nnd new as new can
ne ;
All in npplc-tilo order, especially tho shelves.
And never a debt to say but what wo owu it, all
ourselves.
Look at our old log house how little it now np
pears !
But it's never gone back on ns, for nineteen or
iweuty years j
Au' I won't go back on it now, or go to pokin
fun,
There's such a thing us prasin' a thing for tho
goou luai it uas uone.
rrobably you remember how rich wo was that
nitilit.
When we was fairly settled, au' had things snug
nnd tiu'lit i
We feci as proud ns you please, Naucy, over our
oousc i mil s new,
But we feel ns proid under this old roof, and a
goou ueai proiaer too.
Never a handsomer bouse was seen beneath tho
sun.
Kitchen nud parlor md bed-room wo had 'cm
all iu ouc s
And the fat old wooden clock, that wo bought
wncn we eoiue west,
Was tiekiu' away iu tho corner, there, aud dolu'
us level ucsi.
Trees was all around us, a wliispcriu' cheering
worus,
Loud was the squirrel's chatter, aud sweet the
soul's of birds :
And homo grew sweeter und brighter our cour
age began to mount
Aud th'.ngs looked hearty and happy, then, and
work appeared to couut.
Aud here, ono night, it happened, wlicu things
was goiu' bad,

A TKitnniLE IIohse Disease. The N.
Y. Sun of Thursday last has the following :
Within a few weeks tmst nu nlnrmln.r n.,,l
fatal malady has mado its appearance in
tho ntablea of soma of tbo e!t miirnn.i
lines. Uy somo it is pronounced to bo that
terriblo disease known as cerebro spinal
meningitis, or sometimes tcrnurl annual
fever, although many eminent viteiinnrv
surgeons Bay that it diUers from that dis
ease in Bouio essential rcnuisitcs. It r-
cently howcd itself among tho horses of
iuo oecono avenuo line, where there havo
beon ovci 130 cases, although not more
than about 12 liavo as yet proved fatal.
Tho first symptoms are manifested in tho
slow, sluggish movement of the hind quar
ters, and in stumbling. It h n disease of
the membranes over tho spinal marrow,
and begiuuing apparently over the lumbar
vcrtuoric, cueciuaiiy para.yzcs tlio hind
quarters. The distemper gradually works
itself along the spinal cord until it at last
reaches (ho braiu, wheu tho foro legs givo
way, and tho horse Is deprived of tlio use
of his limbs.
Tho most remarkable feature of this dis
caso in its present aspect one in which it
differs from the real ccrcbro-spiual menin
gitis ia that the horse continues to eat aud
Uriuk ns heartily as though he was well,
his appetite to increase rather than dimin
ish ns tlio diBcaic advances. If tho horde
when Btrickcn with the disease is allowed
to he down, ho will never get up. There
fore, Just as booh as numbness in the hinrt
quarters is noticed, the horso is supported
by broad canvass bands, and a9 soon as ho
iu able to stand ho is turned loose.
There is no effectual rcniedv for this
frightful malady yet discovered. External
applications aro applied uloug tho Epinal
crd and tho horso is kept as quiet as pos
sible. It is not contagious or Infectious.
Wliero thcro nre five horses in a Btable, two
may bo etricken down nnd tho rest not
show the slightest signs of tho disease. It
has appeared amoua tho horses of tho Third
and Seventh avenue lines, as well as among
tho horses of somo of the etage lines. In
some localities it has swept over tho couu
try as a curso, paralyzing iu a day the far
mcr'a finest stock. Tho poor truckman.
too, who is so dependent unon his horse
for his livelihood, has not been exempt
from the ravages of this enidemic. but iu a
few hours has been obliged to see his borne
Btrickcn down helpless and die. A gentle
man iu Westchester county, out of seven
lino horses, lost five. It is reported that an
other gentleman on Long Island, thcownor
of many last trotting horses, has already
lost six from this disease valued at 30.-
000.
It may bo noticed ns a shurular coinci
dence that cercbro-sninal meuiusitis. al
though not of a malignant form, is prevail
ing cxteusircly iu many parts of Virginia.
A low yenrs ngo sixteen persons died of
this frightful discaso in Sull'olk county. L.
L. wbero it appeared in its most virulent
forai.
