MADNESS. 



Sometimes horses become rabid from the bite of a 

 mad dog, and it is hardly possible to conceive a more 

 terrific or horrible si«j;ht than a mad horse. Rabies in 

 a horse comes on at indeiinite periods : in some four, 

 in others five, six, or seven weeks from the bite. It 

 commences by restlessness, sweating violently, witli 

 great appearance of pain; rolling on the ground, and 

 pawir.g with his feet. In a few hours he becomes more 

 violent, kicking, plunging, and tearing; so as to de- 

 molish every thing around him. He is particularly 

 furious and vicious, and in every respect different 

 from a mad dog. It is in vain to attempt any cure, 

 but prevention may with propriety be attempted, and 

 usually succeeds ; the means of which are detailed un- 

 der the article Madness in Dogs.
