B. J. Kendall A Gents: I had very valuable Hambletonian colt which I prized very highly, he had a large. bone spavia on ioiut and a small on on the other, which made dm very lame: 1 had him nntfer the charge of two veterinary surgeons who failed to core bun. I was one day reading the advertisement of Kendall's Spavia Cure ia ibe Chicago Express I determined at once to try It, and got our druggist here to send for it, tbey ordeied three bottles, I took them all and thought 1 would give it a thorough trial, I used it aeeor-diaa to directions and the fourth day the colt ceased to be lame, and the lumps had disappeared.

1 used but one bottle and th 1U limbs are as free lrom lump, and a smooth as anv horse in the state. lie is entirely cured. Tb cure was so remarkable that I let two of my neighbors have the remaining two bottles who are now using it. Very Kespeetfally. L.

Kendall's Treatise a th Horse and his Diaeases, which we are giving to advance pa; Ixg subscribers ta the Press as a premium. About the time the advertisement arst appeared in this paper. Mr. P. U.

Schermerhora. who resides near Colliers, had a spavined horse. He read the advertisement and concluded to test the efficacy of the remedy, although his friends laughed at hii eredultv. He bought a bottle of Kendall's Spavia Care an commenced using it on the horse in accordance wiih the directions, and he Informed as this week that it effected such- a complete cure that an expert horseman, who examined the animal recently, euuld find bo trseeof lbs spavia or Ihe place where it had been located. Mr.

Tbe Development of Art in America Tbe rapid strides of progressive civ ilization of the highest standard in America, is the greatest of all asloDish ing marvels in the old world. Young in national existence young even Known eeoijraphical existence as a part of the globe the progress that we have recorded seems to the scient ists and philosophers of the old world like Xanciful midsummer night'f dream, or a fable of wildest imagina tiou. A century since, art, science and development in all directions were of the most primitive order, but now, as it were, all by maeic changed. Our artists take rank with the first and foremoatof the old world; our scientists and poets have made known their power, and the mechanical arts have progressed more rapidly than in any other country. Ana to-day this wond erful development is progressing with speed hitherto unknown, producing results or the momentous importance to all mankind.

It is a fact that the state of civilization may be judgement, to a great ex tent, by the status its art develop ment. The development of art in the United States has certainly been and while a few years since we were were far down the scale, today we stand side by side with nations that were old at the time of the declaration of independence. Bat a few years since nearly all pictures of im portance were imported, but now our own artists supply nearly all of the ever increasing demand for great works or high art. Great art publishing have come into existence, capable of supply inir any demand that can be made for all descriptions of pictures for galleries and home adornment, it isan inter estiEg and noteworthy fact the pictures demanded ol these art publishing houses, by the masses, are generally superior to those found in the homes of the masses abroad. Through the operations of these art publishing houses.good pictures, that but a few years since cost large sums of money may now be purchased for the veriest trille, and if the least judgement is brought to bear in the selection, works of real merit may be had; or if the purchaser has no tatte in such matters.

all that is iiecesary is for him 10 be sure that he purchases the goods of a reliable house. Ia this connection it may be prop er for us to mention the great art publishing firm of George Ktinou Co or Portland, Maine, who sell, on an average of all descriptions, a million pictures a mouth. It is believed that they pay for postage stamps not only more than any other nrua in this country, but-more than any other house in the world at large. During the year 189 tbey pitid for postage stamps, over eighty-seven thousand dollars. iXunug tte year 1880 they paid for postage stamps over one hundred and twenty-two thousand dollars, while for the year 1881 then postage hill to over one hundred and forty-four" thousaud dollars.

Thus it will be seen that Messrs. Btinsou Co, pay the two hundred and fiftieth part o. all postage collected uy me united States Government, and it should be remembered that we live in a country having nearly nity thousand post omcesAUd over ten thousand news papers and periodical publications YY hue such sums are paid lor postage the fact should not be lost sight of tbat only the smaller packages are sent by mail, all larger orders being seut by express and reign 1. Their trade extends all over the civ ilized world, tboHgh, of course. America comes in lor tne lion's share Messrs.

We have lately received lour ele gant steel engravings, publi tied by Messrs.

'1 hese elegant engravings are en "Ming Blrdie.oing," lteiiiemoeraiiee, iue Bather's a teudant," and "the Gate." It is believed, ami generally conced ed, that thfse ugravings make up the finest and most elegant set 01 works of high art ever brought out by American pubiishers.Atnerican nomes should be made iteautiful by refined works of art and prices for really eood and meritorios pictures are now low that there can be no excuse for the walls to remain gloomy and cheerless.

We now see the professor uing the muscles of his arms by violent rubbing twppjecps of wood together; he put himself into! a-. perspiration by his effortp, but whether the quality of the wood was not suitable for the purpose, or whether he did not throw strength enough into his efforts, he failed to light a fire; he succeeded, however, in putting himself into an intense heat: in fact, it was he alone that fumed from perspiration. It will not light! he said to God frey in a rage, and I begin to think that these pietended inventions of the savageR are the effect of imag ination, and only intended to re ceive the world. No replied, Godfrey In this as well as in all other matters, one must know how to do it But what about the eggs-? Well, there is a way of cooking them, said Godfrey, who tied one of the eggs to a piece of pack-thread and turned it rapidly by swinging, and then stopping the rotary motion, he cooked the egg; the great difficulty, was to make the sudden stoppage without breakmgtheegg See here he said to Tartelett, as he broke the shell, and swallowed the contents without any formality Tartelett could not make up his mind to follow his example, but took his share of the shell-hish ThejT now sought some grotto, or place ol shelter, where they could pass the niRhtin-yS We have an instanco, said the professor, where Robinson Crusoe found a.

His steps were directed toward the hill which shut out all their view lrom tne east; but there was no path; the sun, him as a guide, ana he remarked in certain places the foot-prints of animals: two or three times he thought he saw some elks running away from him.

He found no traces ot wild beasts, such as tigers or jaguars, but he could not regret their absence: the trees'gave shelter to an immense number of birds There were wild pigeons and screech-owls by the hundred', but he could not from them determine the latitude of the country in which they found themselves. He observed, however, that the trees were of the same species ac are touud that part of the United btales which comprises lower. California and New Mexico; such as the strawberry-tree, the CorneUtree, with it large flowers, and the maple-tree, some oaks, some birch, and or five vane ties of magnolias, such as are to be met with in Southern Carolina; then in the large openings he saw, some oiies. tamarinds, and myrtles, such as grow in lh tem perate zone; generally mere was space enough between the trees for him to walk easily; a tea. breeze circulated freelv through the lofty branches, and great patches of light were mirrored on the ground, but (jrodrrev was absorbed with the sire to reach the Knd on the other side.

I see "none. Where are we then? I do not know. What? you do not know; but, Godfrey, we must see if we cannot discover some dwelling place, otb erwise what will become of us? said the professor, raising his hands to ward heaven.

We shall become Kobinsons At this answer, the professor cried out Robinsont! What! become descendants of that Selkirk, who lived so many years on the island of Juan Fernardez; become imita tors of those imaginary heroes of Daniel De Foe and De Wyes, whose adventures I have so often read become like them abandoned by their relatives and friends. destined to dispute lile with the wild beasts, suffering from hunger and thirst with no arms nor uten sils, and divested of all clothing. fso no, it is impossible. Do not tell me of such things, cried Tar telett, do not make fun of such a posibility; the anticipation of such a fate would kill me. Well, my Drave larteletr, an swereu uodlrey, it is a duty we owe to ourselves to seek some dwelling-place some grotto, or a hole of some kind to pass the night; after tnat we shall try and hnd something to eat, so as to stay the exacting demands ol the stomach.

Godfrey and Tartelett commenc ed then to walk over the downs, and directed their steps toward the reef. Godfrey was very ardent in the search, lie looked before and behind him, and on every side; while lartelett could not see ten feet ahead of him. Godfrey said at length, if there are no inhabitants on this land we may at least find some animals. By this he meant domestic animals not those wild beasts which abound in the tropical zone.

therefore, but the difficulty would be to get it. without firearms. In the meantime the best "thing thev could do would be to utilize the eggs, and eat them in this rleirieu tary but nourishing form; besides, 1 1 1 11 iney nau a uinner row couiu they cook it? How could they pro cure a href. Important question, which thev deferred solving until a future day. Godlrey and lartelett went straight toward the reef, around which were fluttering bunds of sea birds.

An agreeable surprise awaited them. Among these they prceiv ed a dozen of hens and two or three American roosters. It wa not illusion, for on their approach thev filled the air with tbeir crowincr. and, on further examination, they saw some quadrupeoV. gliding be tween the rocks and browsing on the short gras.

Godfrey could not be mistaken there was a dozen of lambs, a num. ber of sheep and goats. Ah, Tartelett! cried; see here. And the prosesaor Jookeu without seeing any thiiig so much was he preoccupied by their, situation. It occurred to Godfrey that these animals belonged to the "Dream," and he was right; for the moment the vessel struck, the.

animals had easily gained th reef, and then eands. See, said Godfrey; these simple animals, guidtd by instinct, have been able to do what none of our companions could accomplish; and all these whom the carried, none have been saved hut these noor animals. Except ourselves, replied Tarte lett, naivelv It was a happy circumstance for two shipwrecked' men that these animals had reached the thore in safety, for, with the fruit fulness peculiar to their species, if their sojourn Hmutu be prolonged. would be pxible to have a herd domestic annuals. But to-day Godfrey was anxions avail himself of the resources which were at "hand and he and Professor "Tartelett searched the rocks, and soon collected a notable quantity of they also iouna a cozen 01 eggs among tne holes in the rocks.
