In relation to tbe domestic economy of these establishments, in which there Is a tendency often to extravagance and waste, their observations and suggestions would be likely to be most valuable. The skill and economy with which our Reformatory for Women is conducted by women attests their capacity to take a Hiding part In the administration of all our nubile charities.

I commend to you the Importance of the bureau alnve mentioned, without pa tlcular "reference to the collection of statistics, and urge the passage of such further enactments as may seem to you to lie proper to increase Its scope and enVlcocy. and more and more lnure, by the adoption of a wise system of comparative tests, the socuracy of all the facts concerning the truth of which there might, from the nature of the case, be fair grounds of question." In mtril tn iMnlnnn he !! "Th Co'n- , mil nem, along with other new legislation i ravored br them, have provided for the ent so ils bin en t of a Hdturd of !,ardon,withHit whoe advice and consent the Governor shall not have authority to grant pardons in any case except such as by law will be left to his sole power. I concur with my imtne liate predecessor in the lielief that there is no ueeeaslty for the establihmont of such a Hoard. The f power to grant parlons without any retralut but his own honest and intelligent discretion t has been confided to the overnor eer . since tbe Mate was orgtuicl While In a I few instance this power may have been un- ; windy exereiMNi, it cannot le sld that this has ten abuse I.

For iste. upon whom this resiMnslUlity Is statut to be east. I I can sav thut 1 Mm wlllinor to accent it. as my predecessors have done, and trust for my vindication to the Judgment of the pextpie."

In tbe address delivered upon the oo-efon of laying the corner stone many minor Incidents la the history of the ittate were dwelt upon with eloquent copious nee. but no reference was madk to the illustrious dead, whose lives were offered as a sacrifice for tbe welfare ot their Mat and the preservation of their country, nor was mention made of tbe no lest Illustrious living, whose grateful presence among us is a continued remembrance of the Immortal cause for which the)" fought. If memorials of their service- had been placed in this repository, the omission ht the address would have been unimportant, but non having teu placed there, the address seems to emphasise the supposition that no ie omit ton was to be made of their services, their ssoriaces, or their heroism. It will not detract from the renown of the dead and the honorable rame of the Union noldiers that this was done. Their place In history is secure. In leas than half a generation It has come to be confessed by the iatelliWVM wr iv w whihiiu v Seat of those who were their enemies, was best even for them that, the h i, tam it IntreoM which thev performed were done. As age shall follow age the cause for which they fought, their sacrifice sad their prowess wMi become more and mors illustrious. When, perhaps a century hence, the new edifice now ascending shall be raced to the ground to make mom for some still more imposing structure, and tbe fame of these heroes shall shine with the lus'er of the sun, what will be said of the generation, who. In placing the oorner-etone of Its chief temple, the m notials of lu history could find no room for any record or mention of them? It has been suggested that' the omission maybe redressed by pMotag some statue or other object In the dome commemorative of their services, and thus show that, while we could hot remember them while laying the base of the Capitol, we were c hi t rained to remember them when rearing its pinnacles. I bare no hesitation In saying that. If It tan Undone w tkotit releasing the sureties upm the liond oi the ifut rectors, this corm-r-.-tone should be laid bare, the repository of Its treasures should be opened, and there should be placed therein a careful record la relation to the ws', whatever a great and patriot te State might deem best worth preserving ht a record of its moat Ulimtrtoua ettlteaa. Nor should onthauon ie made to leave there some mention of the street Governor, who was not less a soldier because he never drew a sword, who braved dangers m great as those did who fall in battle, aad whose sere and, vigilance, and Inexhaustible energy In aatlclpatlag and imvldtng for every want of oar soldiers la every aeM, seemed to lavest him with the property of ubiquity. I am sure, gentlemen, that no one will be aonucendtd as to suspect that in saying what t have said oa this theme, I have aotsght to revive any old animosities. Burety It cannot be a party question that we shall honor the heroea or 1 our great civil strife, whether they wore eaatsiei Justice lets or a knapsack. we can now do to mistaken braves wto ami ta that strife."

If the horse baa a ronnd find . and the shoe was tilted eloae all aroiiu-t. iu four weeka the abo will have been carried forwanl by the growth of hof. so that one or both of tue heels will be off the wall, aud in a short time euros will be produced. Now. if the owner would take his hor.-e to the shun on j some fixed date every month, instead of leaving the sbMs on from seven to twenty weeks, horses would have fewer j corns. In shoeing. I prefer a wide heel. ) and mule the heels of the forward shoes wnetner tney have corns or not, on horses that have flat feet. For interfering, level the loot ami tit the shoe all around close. Then mule the inside heel slight I v. In winter it is a good plan to turn 'the outside heel calk, as it keeps the foot out of tbe trough of the road. For over-reaching I have the best success shoeing with long shoes all arouud. Let the heels of the forward shoe stick out an inch and the hind shoes threequarters of an inch. As the forward foot raises, the long shoe will raise enough so the hind foot will pass under, while with a short shoe the shoe will raise just enough for the hind boe to hit the heels, causing a disagreeable clicking. I can do better and quicker work with the knife and rasp than with buttre&s. If the foot Is grown out verv loner I take the cutting pliers and nip the hoof ott fnm ijiiartetN to toe. This insures the removal of the stubs of nails, and with a sharp knife and rasp, the foot is soon ready. I practice eold-liuing, although I do not think a thick-shelled foot is injured by touching it with a red-hot shoe that was previously fitted. A thin-shelled foot 1 never press with a hot shoe. Was taught to weld toe-calk on shoes first, and heel up afterward, but I practice heeling shoes first and put on the toe-calk when ready to use the shoe. If you toe last there will be heat enough in the shoe after welding the calk to fit tbe shoe. I let the heels which are nearly cold drop on the wall of tbe foot and hold the toe, which is red hot an inch away from tbe foot while fitting. After the shoe is fitted and level, harden the toe and nail on. I know a great many advocate heating a shoe red hot after the foot is prepared and the shoe fitted, and press the foot for an instant with the hot shoe. Kul all the advantage they claim is an equal beanng aa4 that the shoe will be less liable to come off. Now I can with knife and map get as good a bearing, and with a g-KRinail fasten the shoe so that it will stay longer than it ought. J. VT. A'icMt. in Bladcmith trnd Wheelwright.
