This disease*, whose ravages have been wor-e perhaps in Florida than any where Msc, l ul which txi.-ls to st me extent in lii sections, still continues among the stock in this country, ami is becoming more general and m< re fatal. There are various opinions as to the character of the malady. Some think, and that too from close examination, that the disease which seems to he making an universal sweep of the deer, is not the black tongue, hut a sort of murrain. It is said also, that although among the cattle, the majority of cases are black or sore tongue, yet inurriau exists among them also. We have no doubt but this is the true state of the case, although we have no direct knowledge on the subject. We might have had this knowledge but for an untoward incident which happened to us a few mornings since. A faithful old servant gave infonnatioti that a fine sow belonging to us was affec to J, ar.d gave it as his opinion that jt was murium and not the black tongue, al though her mouth seemed t<> be a little site, lie asked us to go down and ex amine the beast, which we accordingly proceeded to do. We went into the pen. and pasa. d aiong by It.e side of ihe cow, giving a casual scrutiny as we passed, intending to make a stand in front of her for a few niomotiis. Ju>i as \v? got he fore her she threw up her head, looking wildly at us ior a few seconds, and then with a snort, a lowered head and uleva ted tail, made at us. We hout faced inBtaulir ot?.l moroK.i.1 ' 1?-?? - ? , , ??u ,.ln.|,lic<l >UIUU^I1 nil" | <?ill III the rate of about a mile a minute, and cleared an eight rail feuce without laying hands thereon. We then looked back and the cow was Handing where we left the earth and committed onrself to the air, looking more astonished than angry. The old servant was at the other side of the pen, with one hand on the fence, and tie other on his bo well*, bent almost to the ground in a lit of laughter. Straight oning himself up and gathering breath he exclaimed: My I<oiu, master, you aiut gittin' old yit,1 and ho bowed iiitnself again in a cachinatory paroxism. Not toeing anything particularly funny in the transaction onrself, and feeling indisposed to pursue our investigations in regard to the catt'e epidemic, wo left the p'ace. If it should be our misfortune to lose any more of our stock, we would as soon lose that cow as nnv other.? Thomasville It' porter. From Ih' I*re Dee Times. Lynche's Cukek, July 17. Mr. Editor:? As there is a disease prevailing among the cattle in Marion district and some of the adjoining dis tricts. called the Black or Sore Tongues, I feel desirous of giving the public the benefit of my experience in the treatment of it. The disease may be known by the -animals frothing at iBe mouth. On ex ninination the whole inside ol the mouth will present a dark greenish appearance, and it will smell very offensive?the ton goe w ill be stiff, and they cannot eat. As soon as I find tiieiu thus affected, 1 have theui thrown and their mouths and throats as far down a* can be reached thorough i v cieunsed wnli strong salt and water.? l itis may be repealed onco a day until the animal can graze, which ihey can do in two or tlnee days. I have had four mi'ch cows affected with this disease, and iiave cured litem all with the above treat tiient. If you think it worth it, yon can insert this in your.paper.
