BY JULIAN A. SELBY Chicken Cholera.?A corres? pondent of a Virginia paper furnishes the following: This disease, now so prevalent throughout this section of country, suggest many anxious inquiries as to its cause and treatment. We tender our information, not as mere hearsay, but from practical experiments made upon a number of affected fowls, from its inoipiency to its termination, and in every instance have, the samo cause pre? sented themselves. "We found in the crop and intestines of every bird examined several blades of grass, of a characteristic sporadic in its growth, with full evidence of congestion, abundant secretion of acrid mucus and an accumulation of i offensive * gases, particularly when the grass was present. And knowing ..that spring vegetation possesses' laxative properties and very frequently drastic purgative effects, we concluded that a reason? able diagnosis bad been reached and a clue to the real cause of chicken cholera had been- deter? mined. But presuming that wo had mistaken the real source of the disease, the treatment adopted has in a very great measure convinced us that our opinion must bo cor? rect, as nearly all of the subsequent cases rapidly recovered by the fol? lowing trontment: Prepared chalk and powdered charcoal equal part s, powdered gum camph?r and nssa tootida'! equal parts and pure cur bolic-acid. Mix all together and give one tea-spoon-f ul morning and night to ten chickens, keeping them dry and warm and moderately well fed. > We ifind this preparation to act as a thorough preventive and should-be given about once or twice each, week. ,? Ishlartoo Eberling, the adopted daughter of Esquimaux Joe and Hannah Eberling, died at Gorton, Conn., recently, aged nine years. Capt. 'Hall, the Artie explorer, bought her of. her parents when she was an infant, giving a snow sledgo for her.
