PRBSERYATIOJ* OF SSEDS.George RiddelT, one of our-mogt'exorigneed:ptjblic gardeners, pulled a considerable quantity-of cabbage seed in the Begin- rling or the week. this was placed opposite to1 bis d|welli0g-hoitse, and within five or six yards of an Out-door seat, tfpon which he frequently sits dnring the course of the day. Without regarding his pre- sence, numbers of chatfitjehesf alighted tipoir and devoured the ileed. geeing this, George strewed fpathersr over the seed. The experiment succeeded. l^Jot ft bird has since alighted upon the heap, al- though tfefen (0 be gazing eagerly upon it from the nelghf>d»ii1ng trees. Much benefit; wethfink, might accrue to^ farmers by the adoption of this plan to Secure the turnip seed from the winged depre- dators.—'Kelso Chronicle. tR HOCKING, of Gwi«ear-ehurch town, has in fiis garden 18 stocks of bees, the,produce of four— hat is toi say, 14. swarms from foii'r bid stocks. this remarkable increase he attributes to his having placed in the. same garden wtth the bees a jarge quan!jty of the rurabago turnip plants, which, having produced a great quantity of blosiroib, kre supposed to have contributed very materially to their tpeans of support..

HANOLIXO OF OXEW-—In an domesticated ani- mals, the hide er skin forms one of the best criteria by which we can estimate their fattening properties. The touch is said to be good or bad-filie or harsh. When it feels soft and oil ky, if, is w proof of. the ten- dency in the aniurtl to take meat. A thick Arm skin, which is gerreratly eovered by a thiek-set, hard, short hair; always handles hard, and indicates a bad feeder. A beast havrtig a perfect toacli, will have a thick-loose skin, floating, as it were, oil a lay" of soft fat, yielding id the smallest pressare, bttd spring. iisg back tuwartts the finger- like a piece of soft thick chamois leather. Such- a skin will be usually co- vered with an abundance of glns-, hair, feeling like a bed of moss, and hence'the very appropriate name, a mossy skin.— Veterinarian. DISBASEC OF HORSB^-—THB STAGGERS Symptoraatie iufliiaihatriorf of tKe brain U CoOunoaly known by the name of staggers, sleepy ataggera, or p stomach STUGGCR*, so CALLED from the borl,6 atagger- ing or reetimt: wheh he attempts <o move. The latter is-the moat.apprcpriate name, as it arises from a etiite of acute indigestion. There exists, tin intimate sym- pathy between THE stomach and the brain, thus, for instance, a blow oil the, bed will cause SICKNESS or youiitfction, and IN<lige,ati«>n JA generally the casse .of. fiead-selie; again, a person who has been intoxi- cated at will arise IN the morning with a violent pain, in THE head, thus demonstrating that the causes that AFFECT one. orgen, will affect the other. The causes AREI°AL,^» '"M *HE one which is generally asciibed, and, to-whilch, iu,t)iue ae, OUT of ten, the disease may be traced, is a mechanical DISTENTION of the stomach, wiih it is ff.eigini,ly brought 00 by turning a burnout into a rich pasture, when the the p animal eats voraciously of the herbage, and indiges- tion :and distegolon eJ)IIue. Ttig .stomach of THE horse is very GIPALL.^HTN COMPARED wiih his general bulk, which is a wise provisioi) of nature, for.the horse being an animal of SPEEITT IF his stomach had been likrge. so ttilit of the ox, it wouldhilve inter- fered 19th liiii, breatiiing, aild he would thus have been unable to. perform one of the^principal duties required of hiP" elha, then naturally infer that the horse will require to be fed often and in siriallr quantities. the practice of*aUowing the horl-el to go long WI'B°AJ fodd, and ESPECIALLY^ when at woik, is most iojorious; the *«RSE being in a state; of hanger, fills HI* stomach with food, which he doe* not allow HIMSELF time to masticateproperly, and the. stomach itself 'being weak from teng fasting, the' consequence L« 'BAT it cannot contract upou its con-J tents, and indigestion, distention-, and staggers are; the resalt. IN describing the symptoms of the com-l plalut it may be :.aid ebat the animal will be found: doll and SLEEPY' and PAYING no attention lo SOR^ rounding objects; he has no appetite GRADOALLYJ becomes uiore TNO'E drowsy, ahti) he appears tot be sleeping 011 his legs, AND in this state he Ovilo sometimes fall down, AND Immediately rise againj LOOKING arouifd HIM in a stupid..manner.

The breath4 iug in the eoniiriencement IG hot affected, but as the disease' advances, it becomes quick and hurried; The piilse is rploo slow, and below the natural stand. ard, nnti) THE membranes of the brain are affected, when it becomes ofaguick and intermittent nature. The animat xoon becomes very weak and debi'iiated the superficial muscles of the body are seized with spasmodic twiichings; and the mucous membranes of the' eyes, mouth, and nostiriIs BECOME of a-yellow colour from the suffusiou of bile which takes ptuce. Under these symptoms, if the animal does not obtain speedy reHef, jbe energies of nature WITF be one. pended, and he will down dead, or the stomach will be ruptured, which is equaHy fatal, before de ciding upou the mode of lreatment. the firstcare of the practilioner-is to iattltute a careful inquiry into all the clrcomstancea OF the case. Is ft a case of acute indirection 1 "Has the animal fasted a long- time? Has he been allowed taat an inordinate quantity of food ? Is he itt poor condition, and has ,he been turned into a rich pasture ? By making ■UIH inquiries ab tho.se, the practitioner itiTt be able instantly to decide on THE cdae, ØD to act promptly.

Should'A re- mission of symptom! take plaee, gniat care should be taken against a recurrence of the disease. This seldom terminates favourably. When the disease advances gradually from, one stage to another with- out any remission of syluptomt%, then we cannot ex- pect anything but a fatgi result; but when called in sufficiently early to relieve the stomach, and open a passage for its contents, (by which means it will re- gain its lone, and the brain bertelieved of the super. abundant quantity of blood which is sent to it), then, and not till theo, may practitioners entertain the slightest bope of a favourable termiuatioo.
