The subjects of my experi ments were six horses of my own, and threa belonging to friends ; the nins among them, representing very fairly the different classes of pleasure horses. When my attention was first directed to the subject of nailing, I was employing seven, nails in each fore and eight in each hind shoe. I then withdrew one nail from each shoe, tiios reducing the number to six in the fore, and even in lbe hind shoes ; and finding at tha end of a year that ihe shoes of all the horses had been as firmly retained as formerly, I 1 allowing it sometimes to shift ; so I relumed j employ tnai Votf.ce i-..-! -nn.;..,i !

I have detailed these experiments with a. view to expose the groundless nature of the ! fear lhat expects to cast a shoe at every step. unless it be held tu the foot by eight or nina nails, driven high into the crust. If Ihe pre sence of a nail in the crust were a matter of no moment, and two or three mora than ara necessary were merely luer.w, there would b no great reason to interfere with this practica of making "assurance douMy sure;'" bat it is far otherwise the nails separate ihe fibre., of the horn, and they nevsr by any chance be come united again, but continue assured and. nnclosed, until by degrees they grow down, wnii the rest of Ihe hoof, and are uluuiale'y. .r.. -..-. ....ii vK..iinrc removed bv the knife. .u: ,i.,i,.. .hi,i hnnnen tn nw. ihe- . mnsi be replaced without delay; as such ri- .... : ........ .t.. n.il. free. lorn of motion I siii .ii.a.. ." ." . - ' ' , ,:h,.l i ..lien merr..I hr th, rnirn is sure 10 rui.e-c in.- is o. ... mm - i . . . . . ..;.. violent wrenching which the shoe undergoes , from side to side , the process ol removal , j the smiih. , Now as these holes can not possibly grow- ! down, and be removed tinder ib rea shoeings.
