Livihg and Ornamental Fences. —At a re
cent meeting of the Botanical Society of
London, Mr. I). Cooper gave an account of
anew living fence, formed by planting
voung trees in a. slanting position, every
tree leaning the opposite way, so that they
will cross each other, and then at the parts
which come in contact, take oft from each
a piece of hark and tie close together, cov
ering the part with clay. This grafts each
tree into its neighbor, and forms in a few
years a living fence, with diamond-shaped
openings. The plan is an excellent one for
ornamental fences.
NEW MODE OF GRAFTING.
Mr. Downing of Newbcrg, lias lately
practiced with success, anew mode of graft
ing, the object being to test the quality of
fruit raised from seeds in a shorter period
than would bo possible by permitting such
seedlings to stand until their time of bear
ing.
The method is, to put the top of a shoot
from a seedling tree, or anew variety,
when it is desirable to procure a specimen
of the fruit immediately, upon the top of a
thrifty shoot of a middling aged and bearing
tree : the process being simply to take
thrifty shoots about a quarter of an inch in
diameter, and cut them in a slanting man
ner clear through, so as to detach about four
inches of the top from the rest, making the
line of the angle about an inch—the stock
being cut in the same manner. The backs
are then to be carefully united, and bound
up with yarn, covering the whole with graft
ing wax, to ©.vc.ludo the air. By this mode,
fruit may be obtained in a short period, so
as to test its value at an early day ; the op
eration being simple, with scarcely a fear
of failure.— Horticultural Mag.
Cure for Founder in Horses. —Take a
large kettle of water and make it boil.—
Lead the horse to the kettle, if he be able
to vroiU; if not lake the water to the stable.
Commence win. . -.wab and wash the fet
locks before, then the behind then
wash the legs in the same manner, then iii„
shoulders and body, rub the horse dry, and
he will be well in a few hours. There is
no danger of scalding the horse if the above
directions bo pursued. This remedy is on
the authority of one of the best farmers in
this place, and is worth to every farmer
double the price of his subscription to this
paper.
Bots in Horses. —Apply spirits of tur
pentine to the hollow of the breast, warm
it in with a hot shovel, it will rout them im
mediately.
For Cholic, put into a bottle three gills
of spirits, say whiskey ; 1 spoonful gun
pou'der ; 1 spoonful cayenne pepper, or 2
of black—add if convenient a wild turnip
grated ; turn it down and move it lively.
If it is an obstinate case, repeat the dose,
and he is well in either wind, bloat or gripe
colic in short metre.
The Worms. —When a horse loses his
appetite, and his coat looks bad, he proba
bly has worms. Give one ounce of fine
aloes in a half pint of whiskey. Miss one
day, and give half this quantity and he will
eat like an Indian.
From the Farmers’ Cabinet.
HORN-AIL.
Mr. Editor : —Having persuaded myself
_ that the practice of boring the horns and
applying spirits of turpentine, &c. in the
disease called horn-ail, which is so very
prevalent in America, is entirely wrong in
principle, and has the most pernicious con
sequences in practice, I deem it not improp
er to recommend, by the means of your val
uable periodical, a system of cure by which
during a long veterinary practice, both in
France and in Philadelphia, New. York and
Harrisburg, I have been successful in most
cases ; while by the common way of pro
ceeding no animal is saved. some either not
having been attacked by that disease, or
getting cured by nature itself.
This disease is also called the “red wa
ter, ’ or blood in the back or loins, and ari
ses principally from cattle being at grass
retiring the summer on lots which are verv
dry jhid without shade, and from their be
ing exposed to excessive heat of the sun
and to great cold in the winter time ; there
are various other causes, as moory pastures,
moist weather. &c., to all which, cattle in
this country are generally exposed ; sour
and mouldy hay, the exclusive feeding on
corn-stalks, also contributes a good deal to i
this disorder.
As this disease is of an inflammatory
character, the application of spirits of tur
pentine and the like, which produce inflam
mation, is entirely wrong. Bering the horns
is at most curing symptoms and not the dis
ease. I recommend to every owner of cat
tle the following mode of cure, tried by me
, a good many times with success:
. When the animal is observed to be suf
fering from this disorder, one or two quarts
of blood, according to the size of the ani
mal, are to be drawn immediately from a
neck vein ; then two table-spoonsful I of the
following powder are to bo given three
ktimes every day, the powder being previous
ly dissolved in a pint of lukewarm water ;
this to be continued until the animal recov
ers:
fe:,. au ber salts, 0 ounces.
■***■’ -rStlream of tartar, 2 “
purified saltpetre, 2 te
althte, 1£ “
i excuse, and addo, to rub the animal
se, principally
‘1 should he
costive, either of the following clysters is to
be given : *
Take a handful of camomile flowers, two
handsfull of flax-seed ; boil them in two
quarts of water, strain them, and add eight
ounces of linseed oil and three table spoons
full of common salt. This clyster is to be
applied by means of a syringe.
Should these articles not be at hand, take
one quart of wheat bran, pour two quarts of
boiling water on it, strain, and add eight
ounces of flax-seed oil and two ounces of
common salt. This clyster is to be luke
warm when applied to the rectum or straight
gut, by the means of a syringe or a fit-fun
nel. JOSEPH FI Ell HER,
Veterinary Physician.
Harrisburg, Oct. 1841.
What affinity is there between this 1 horn
ail’ and the well-known distemper to which
all foreign cattle are subject in our region?
The symptoms are very similar, and we
believe the causes assigned for tie l one fre
quently produce the oilier. The recipe is
worth a trial, especially as we know no
other that can be recommended.

This imported Horse lias located in Washing
ton, Wilkes county, and will stand tho present
Season at the Stable of John Jesse, Esq.
MASTER SOLOMON is a beautiful ma
hogany bay, rising sixteen lianas high, six years
old tins Spring. So thorough-blooded a Horse
is rarely found. He is much admired for his
large bone and muscle, his beautiful form and
splendid look. He is not excelled for progeny
by any, and is in line health and vigor.
He will be let to Mares at sls. the single vi
sit, $25. the season, and $35. to insure a mare to
be in foal. Any person putting by the insurance
who do not attend regularly, or who may trade or
transfer the mare, will be required to pay the
full price of insurance.
The money to he paid within the Season.
Mares sent from a distance will be well at
tended to, and provided with good food on rea
sonable terms. Every care will be taken to pre
vent accidents, but the Subscriber will not be
accountable lor any that may happen.
BENJAMIN RECTER.
Pedigree.—Master Solomon was bred by Phil
more, in 1830, sired by Reveller; his dam by
Lord Barners, Lord Burners by Jupiter; Jupiter
out of Brambush, Brambush by Teddy the Grind
er; her dam by Princess, by Sir Peter; Dun
ganon by Turf, Herod, &c.; Jupiter by Whis
key, out of Jenny the Spinner, by Dragon ; her
dam by Matchem, &c. Reveller, by Comus;
Comus out ol Rosetta ; Rosetta by Baningburg,
her dam by Rosamon; Rosamon by Tandrep,
Zuberuse ; Zuberose by Herod, &c. Comus by
Sorcerer, his dam by Sir Peter, Highflyer, &c.,
Sorcerer by Trumpeter; Trumpeter by Conduc
tor, and he by Matchem.
This is enough to satisfy all men who have
made themselves acquainted with the Pedigrees
of English blooded Horses, that the Master Sol
omon is as fine a blooded Horse as ever crossed
the Atlantic. Solomon has never run any Races
as he was injured in his lett fore leg in coming
out of the vessel, which mark is there to be seen
Solomon lias now with him a two years’ oid Colt,
of bis own get, which is thought by all who have
seen, him, that he cannot be surpassed by any of
his age. T’ho Master Solomon was imported
from England to America in 1838, by James
Stow, of Virginia.
We the underwritten Subscribers do certify
that the above statement of the Master Solomon
is just and true ; General Washington Powell,
Thomas J. Allen, George Thompson, and James
W. Bailey, all of Virginia.

To the Planters of Georgia.
A PENNY SAVED IS TWO PENCE EARNED.
THE Subscriber is now offering to the Far
mers of Georgia, “MIMS’ WROUGIIT
IRON PLOUGH STOCK,” invented by the
Messrs. Seaborn J, & Marshall Mims, of Oc
lebbahan county, Mississippi, and patented by
them. This PLOUGH in every respect is tho
most desirable PLOUGH STOCK ever offered
to a planting community. It combines durabili
ty with convenience—it will last a great many
years without repair or expense, and will admit
of every variety of Plough Hoes, (three tooth
harrow excepted,) with perfect convenience and
facility—it is not heavier than the ordinary wood
en stock, yet far stronger, and being so very sim
ple in its construction, that any blacksmith in
the country can make them.
Sample Ploughs may be seen and tried at Mr.
Dense’s Shop in Milledgeville ; at Mr. Martin’s
Shop in Sparta, and at Mr. F. B. Billingslea’s in
Washington, Wilkes county. Let the Farmer
examine the Plough, and he will purchase the
right to use them.
The Subscriber proposes to sell county rights
on the most accommodating terms.
Es All communications on this subject, post
paid, addressed to me at Milledgeville, or Wash
ington, Wilkes county, will meet with immedi
ate attention. B. L. BARNES,
Agent for S. J. & M. Mims.
