The following rather ludicrous scene, uu
it strikes us, occurrcd in the house of lords:
lireach of Privilege.?The lord chancel
lor begged to call their lordships' attention to
what he was convinced their lordships would
concur with hint in considering as a brcach
of privilege. It was u standing order of that
house, that while business was going forward,
strangers should not be admitted to the bar,
This was certainly not enforced, and he was
not, therefore, in the lea*t inclined to dwell
upon the subject. Hut there was another
stuuding order, whiuh forbade the bringing
of sticks or umbrellas within the body of the
house; and, in pursuance of this, upon a late
occasion one of the officers of tne ho tie
directed an individual to leave his umbrella
out stde.?-Thc umbrella, it appeared, was
stolen, and the owner thought proper to
bring an action in the court of requests
against the officer, for the purpose ot reco
vering It* value. This, perhaps, he had a
right to do, but he certainly had not a right
to serve a process upon the officer within
that house. lie begged leave to suggest to
their lordship*, that the proper course to
pursue, would lie to call the officer to the bar. j
The curl of Hosslyn was of opinion, that
the individual alluded to had no riuht to
bring an action for any thing that had been
done by un officer of that house, in the execu
tion of his duty. He considered that bring
ing the action, was in itself a breach of prlvU
lege. ,
The lord chanccllor thought so too.
Strangers were then ordered to withdraw,
when, we understand, the officer at the bar
deposed to the fact, and the person (Mr.
Hell) who brought this action, w ?* ordered
to appear at their lordships' bur to-morrow.
Mr. Bell accordingly appeared tin* next
day, and was teprimanded for this indiscre
tion.
The Times published the annexed Jeu
d'rifirit on the subject.

mouth, and the former having lib thumb*
in the eyes of his antagonist. The officer
immediately gave orders to hit party,

the Rentuckian peremptorily forbade any
interference saying, 'give the fellow tair

Charletton City Gazette,
THE HOLLOW HORN.
There if, perhaps, no disease in thU cli
mate from which our cattle have suffered so
much, as that commonly called the hollow
horn j and unfortunately, few persons have
thought it necemry to give any attention to
it, or its cure, for we find but little said in
xny agricultural work relative to its treat*
mcnt.
The name appears to mc, to be badly .
plied, as the horn alone is not the seat of the
disease; it pervades the whole system?and
the cattle without horns are quite aa subject
to it, us those with them?having often seen
those without horns have it.
The hollow nets of the horn, proceeds from
the violence of the fever throughout the sys
tem. 1 have known cattle feeding in the
stall to be attacked with it, as those in poor
condition: and no doubt those in bad plight
are more liable to it! attack, their system
nor being in a state to resist any disease; it
occurs too in all seasons of tl.c year, but more
particularly In the spring.
The animal attacked with it looks rough,
stares much in its coat, and falls off very uo
in flesh, its food having but little effect in
nourishing it The eye looks very hollow
and dead, and runs with a yellow matter
which collects in the corners and around
them. Many persons rely upon the feel of
the horn, as the best indication of the disease,
but this, I think very uncertain: insome cases
it is at the root, cold to the feel, while in others
very hot. A venr small gimblet, will how
ever, remove all doubts, and the mark on the
horn nut be visible in a few days. If the dis
ease exist the horn will be found without
pith, and little or no blood immediately upon
entering the horn. The gimblet used for
boring should be well waaced and greased
after using; for if it is not, and should be used
to try the horn of an animal nut actually af
fected with the disease, it will most fenerai
?y Rive it to them. It Is a disease/ that is
highly inflammatory and infectious, and the
animal having it, ought to be removed from
the herd until well. The following mode of
treatment, 1 have found very successful, and
the beasts soon restored to a thriving state.
As soon asl discover an animal effected with
the hollow horn, I bleed it from the neck
fin the same vein In which a horse U bled)
from two to six or seven quarts accord I nr tk
conditkW
three quarters to or* pound and a half glau
bcr salts; with a middle sized gimblet loin
the horns through and through, making the
holes so that they may be perpendicular in
the unsual position the animal carries its
head, so that the pus formed may have a free
discharge as soon as the horns are opened;
put through the hole into each about a table
spoonful of strong vinegar, in which some
salt and black pepper ground, has been put.
rhe day following the horn must be again
opened and cleansed from the jms, which is
generally new formed, and about half n tea
spoonful of spirits of turoentine, put into each
horn, and a little on the poll of the animal
daily, during the continuance of the disease.
One bleeding is generally sufficient; but 1
have known cases in which it was necessary
to repeat It three times, as alto the salts.
The food daring the continuance of the
disease Is Important?corn In every shape is
had?potatoes are of great use. (with a small
quantity of brewer's grains, if to be had,)
and the animal ought to have from one to one
and a half pecks daily, with hay in the win
ter, and grass In the summer.
Potatoes have a wonderful effect on the
animal as soon as the bowels arc well cleans
ed, the importance of which, any person will
be convinced of, who observes the discharge
from the animal. In some obstinate I have
given dally from a half to one ounce, ot nitre,
sprtnkkd an the potatoes. It is important
at the first bleeding to take as mucn blood
as the animal wilt bear, and the fever is more
easily checked by one large bleeding than
two small ones, and the animal better able
to bear it
In many cases the bleeding and salts have
been sufficient, without opening the horns;
and when taken in the early stage will gene
rally be found to answer, but the hot ing cer
talnly asshrtft in forming anew the internal
part of the horn, and which, us soon tis it com
mences forming, the holes In the horn should
be allowed to close. r
An animal having the hollow horn should
be sheltered from the inclemeticy of the
weather, during its continuance. No are
appears exempt from its attack, having seen
