1L r (1 THE EXPRESS, FRIDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 8, 1865 SUN DAY OPENING OP MUSEUMS D aszzsza MU SEUMS 4 , -- 1 meeting of working men was bald yesterday seeing in Si. Martin's-her, to advocate the opening of the Batch Museum and public galleries to the people on Sundays. The hall was quite filled. The chair was taken by Sir J. Wethisine, who recteived a moat enthusiastic greeting, mixed with some direct Sir J. WstusLrr, in opening the proceedings, said that altnough announced as chairman on the placard, he should be moat willing to give way to any one else they might select. (A universal acclamation at once confirmed his chairmanship.) lie reminded them how long he had been knee's' to working remit and be appealed to them whether ha had ever soled otherwise than impar tially in the chair. (Cheers.) He was informed' Laity that the meeting thudded mainly of (naiads of the working classes. (" Hem, hear, " No, no." and eminent.) He understood it included delegates from all the trades of London. (Tremendous cheers, " No, no," and uence of confusion.) The meeting bad been called in conseq assertions which had bees mad. in other places, so sew lain whether or no the working men were in favour of mm our public galleries and museums in the afternoon of Sendai , . the only day— (peat cheering, exclama tioas, cries of " Turn him out," k.)—whetber the working mac—(" Order." cheer)—whether the working men of this greet metropolis were in favour of—I" Order," chests, "question," Wass, " No, no"). The first Wag they vented to know was, whether the working n were ia favour of • religious moral opportunity to m es loy the Sabbath, or whether they were willing to submit to a small section of the community. (Tremendous cheers, and cries of " Tura out the City missiouaries." He believed that the objects of the Sunday Lieges were in nnisou with the feeling' of the great maw of the ma inanity. (The uproar here became so general that nothing reached the reporters from the platform for several minutes. After a lull, Sir Johns resumed.) He believed that the prieciples of the league were consistent with the true tenets of Christianity. (More uproar, during which the chairman resumed his seat), and Mr. T. Huottrn, M.P., came forward to implore a hearing for both sides of the question. The meeting, he thought, seemed inclined to hear neither side. (" That's it.") He that they should hear what the Sunday League to say, and then be bad no doubt he and others would in their torn get a fair bearing. The Clialehlie resumed. He wes bad been awing that the objects of the Sunday Lague consistent with the pure tenets of Christianity. (Loud cries of "No, Do.") Be did not ask them to believe—be believed it. Be be lieved that the opening of the British Museum would be a boon to the &nine). seollle at the lower end of the room here turned all attention from the platform.) He understood that mesons were nh differed from him, and he trusted they w come forward and show him his errors. He knew there were men who would make the Sabbath what it was in days of old, namely, an oppres sion. (Cheers.) A pharisaical hypocrisy had hawed the Sabbath about until it looked like a religion, but was with them, in reality, a eke and as oppression. thHate was bound to say this on behalf of the Sunday Lesgas, the work ing men of Loudon were the first to commence tholes's,. (" No such thing.") Yes, and they were the first to announce their grievances, and their announcement led to the peti. thin to the Horne of Commove. (Much interruption and cheering.) Mr. La:racer ram, and was received with mingled cheers and disappiobatioo. After considerable confusion and in terruption, Mr. Langley was allowed to defend himself from the imputation of having misrepresented the working erase to Earl Granville. The question was whether he wee to be charged with deliberate lying, or whether Mr. Murphy and his friends had misrepresented him. Mr. Murphy and his friends had asserted that the Sunday League did lese. leaking for the opsaing of public places on the Sabbath, fairly represent the working man, Now, what were the facts? In 1864, the Sunday League invited all the trades to lend delegates to meet them at the Whittington Club. About 60 came, and many more were prevented attending by un avoidable circumstances. (Intenuptioa and cheers, the Bev. Newman Hall ha vin g appeared on the platform.) The delegates present were =animus in pronouncing in favour of the principles of the Sunday Leapt.. (Cheers and dissent.) There ware represented at that meeting carpenters, tailors, turners, watchmakers, in short, every one of the working traded. The way in which Mr. Murphy and his friends met this was r a rt z t it u i. : a single tailor or carpenter, who said, " I know of that deputation ; I'm sot represented." It wee, then, . Murphy and his friends who were guilty of ntierepreesote tios. (Cheers sod Mmes.) Mr. Langley (asthma., amid incenses interruption, to defend the Sunday League, and was proceeding to quote some oteervatioos which had been made by a Mr. Whitmore, when that gentleman suddenly appeared in front of a gallery and received a tremendous ovation from his friends. For some momenta the question with the meeting seemed to be, " Whitmore or no Whit more," and the noise reached its climax when Mr. Whit more descended from the gallery, and, accompanied by some friends, made his appearance on the platform. Mr. LANGLIT Celeeiened—The Rev. Newman Hall 00e. demand the way in which he (11r. Langley) had been treated at Lambeth Baths. Rev. Newnan liLtu,—What he had mid was—(" Hoer, heir," cheers, hisses, " question," knocking of sticks against the door, U.) He wanted to beer both sides. Mr. Lang. ley had misunderstood him. What he said was that the meeting at the baths should have given him (Mr. Langdey) a bearing. If any one in that meeting was his friend, let them keep good order. H there were costermoorers from the New-cut, let them be quiet; if they were Christina,, let them keep quiet. A sudden expression of opinion was justifiable, but this continued interruption wee irrationel. Mr. LANGLEY proceeded to defend himself and the Sun day Lamm,. Mr. Whitmore had accused him of being opposed to the half-holiday movement, but he emphatically denied the accusatioa. He had always been an advocate for shortening the hours of labour, and was not going to " rat" then ; what he had mid was that if the Saturday half -holiday movement prevented the opening of the mu seams on Sin:dela, the Sunday League could sot support it. The petitions against the opening of public galleries on Sun days to the House of Commons thus described in the re port of the petitions committee, They were signed first by Sunday school children. (Great interruption and cheers.) Secondly, Sunday school teachers. Were than worlds; men? (" Yes," " No;' cheers, hisses.) But the worst was yet to come. Tits committee reported that in all these petitions the first ten signatures were genuine, and all that followed were iu thesame handwriting. (Great confusion sad cries of " Time.") The church and chapel accommoda tion of London was only enough for 30 per cent. of the church-gong populatioa, and the ciliation which the Sunday League asked was what was to be dose on Sundays with the remaioder. (Elear,hear.) Mr. Langley concluded with a short recapitulation of his arguments, and contended that he had detended the Sunday League triumphantly against blithe charges which had been made against it. Mr. Langley resumed his seat amid great cheering. Mr. HOeldie, M.P., who was much cheered, said be had been summoned to this meeting to substantiate a statement made by hint to Lord Grenville, when introducing a deputa tion from his own borough to that noble lord. He did not acknowledge the right ot the Suodsy League to summon him, but as he felt the great importance of the question at WOO, be bad come there that eveniug. He must howeves remark, at the outset, that the authorities of the Sunday League had done estrange thing, and one which be thought =justifiable, in advertising his promise to attend as though he were coming by his own desire, and to their support. Such • statement could only be misleadiog. He was come there on a summons to substantiate a statement made lit him, and that he was now prepared to do. (" flew, beer. and some interruption.) Ile must however, first express his own regret at the spirit in which both the Legg= and their opponents carried on this struggle. Here was a grave question on which the working people of London differed strongly. That was all fair enough, es the ques tion of opening the Museum and other public collectioes on Sunday ham two sides, each of which maybe honestly held by reasonable men. But it would seem that they could not differ without making bitterly personal attacks on each other, and bandying about accusations of lying and trickery, which could only exasperate opponents without forwarding their owe cause. One side seemed to him jest as bed as the other in this respect ; He was g o ing to the working people themselves with it, but he foun d others at the heed of this imitation in a higher station of life, and really they ought to see that the contest was ear ried on with decent courtesy. Strong words don't make a strong ease. (Hear, hear.) And sow as to the matter is contest. He would say at once that he was not a Saliba- Smith. He believed that the Sabbath was made for man, and not marl for the Sabbath. But he was equally sure that Sunday should be • day of rest. (Loud cheers.) In this great city nine-tenths of us are overworked, and we want rest, lawyers anden as much as working men. W hat is rest, t he . he himself found the only real rest in worship and in family life. But he had no with to bind others—sows men might fi lad rest in walk ing in the country. in botanising, or apologising, or readies books unconnected with their regular work, or is looking at pictures. He had no objection to any of these, or to say other oceupatinn not immoral, though be bad his own strong coevictioo that those who went altogether without worship would get no true rest for mind, body, or spirit. (lcer, hear.) He come, therefore, to the cousiderstios of the =esti= quite unbiassed. All he wanted was that Sunday should be a day of rest to our overworked people. He had tried to look at the question from the working man's point of view, and be had do= his best to bud out what the real feelings and wishes of the tuejority were in this matter. After inclinieg some years ago to the view token by the Sunday League, he had come round to the belief that the majority of the working classes is Landon do not wish for the opening of the British Museum and other ea tiond collections on Sundays—that they are very anxious for the opening of them on the evenings of week days, and for some shorteaing of the hours of labour—(cheers)—tut they believe that the agitation for opening on Sundays diminishes the chase of getting work day opeoinp—that if government sets the example by opening public inatitu. time, employee , will cite and set on the example, and the end will be seven days a week work instead of six days. (Load clienn) He was not saying whether than beliefs wore right or wrong, but °sly that to the best of his judgraeut these were their beliefs. This was the gate men he toad* to Lord Granville, and he would sow give the evidence on which he grounded it. (Hear, bear.) Mr. Hughes thee proceeded to state the expertenos of hie mews in Lambeth, where at every =snag the question wee seised, and invariably decided spinet opening on .Sundity.. He had milled in August at a great imolai Meeting of oxbow's, in November at a large meeting of logaalmett and • eironose ; both m Wilma were vehem Booent oppon ent* d the Sunda oral the !' as leading to - Brty work. The Early y Closing AMDOCaatiOs were also unanimously in favour of week-day opening . , and against the movement for opening on Sunday. Lottly. he had talked with many working men, whom he knew well and could depeed upon and had received letters from others, all leading to the lune emeluaires, one a which he would read as an example. it was oc these grounds that he had formed his conclusion, sea thue he substantiated the statement made by him to Lord Onts ville. He was quite ready to admit, however, that there was a respectable minority amoopt the working people of the other way of thinking. and they hod a right to be heard. All be hoped was that is future both sides would carry on the contest (unless indeed they could leers to agree, which would be fax the beet phut) without calling names or imputing motives, or charging melt other with lying and forgery. (Cheers and dimwit.) Mr. Watoar, chairman of delegates, &maimed Mr. Langley's statements as to the represeetatiee Mambo of the Sunday League. (The coadnot of the meeting here became almost riotous, knots were formed in various miners, many persons left the room, and shouts were given for venous names.) We gathered from Mr. Wright's oh euvatious that the trade societies represented the working men of London, and that the trade societies supported the Sends] League. lie concluded by 'moving a resolution to the effect that the metropolitan member' be requested to move in parliement for a committee to sacertain the real feeling of the working men on the Sunday question. Mr. Uretteo sec ond d the resolutioo. Mr. G. M. Mostar rase to move an amendment, but the demonstration in the body of the hell became so noisy that his observation were not Mr. Newman Hall and several of the more respecta ble occupants of the platform bests hasty retreat. The Chair men appealed in vain fora hesriag foc Mr. Murphy, who we* at last obliged to resume his mat.

I rid I had seen Major Gordon's likeness, arid that I h ad heard she had been engaged to be married to him, or told some thin. to that effect. I never said Miss Berry bad me so Ido not choose to say who had told me. She She showed me any letters, nor have I said she did. I did not I now Miss Berry till abs came to my house, nor have I seen her sines. She gave me notice to leave. She came in April and left in July. Mr. Da Costa did not sleep there before they went to Paris. Ido not know whether they slept together after they came from Peri& Raexamined—ln the album there were likenesses of men and women, old and young. Mr. Da Costa's was there. To the Judge—l thick the album was in the bedroom. I merely took it up in my hand, and then the conversation took place. Mrs. Upton, of 8, North-cresoent, nays—The plaintiff has resided in my house since tits, and she ties during thia time conducted herself with greatest propriety. Miss Maria Denney — My father was • daunts. I have known the plaintiff since 1863. I have known nothing wrong of her. Mr. George Crisp, of 6, Carridee.hill West, tobanoeist -1 have knows Mrs. Berry and her family five or six years. She has always been hardworking and respectable, and so Lae her daughters. The plaintiff has greet peeing attraction. Mr. Thomas M o rgan, the keeper of the Amidst Arms , Kessington-park-road-1 have known Mrs. Berry and her family for twelve years.

Mrs. Mullen—l have known the plaintiff two or three years. I never saw or heard anything against the character of the plaintiff. Mrs. Downs—l formerly resided at Mrs. Berry's. and assisted her in the lanmakiag. 1 was there nine mouths. I went with Miss Berry to Weetbonrne-Park-villaa. Mr. Da Costa visited her there frequently. When he bought the dress with Miss Berry he said it was to be her wedding deem. It was a mauve silk. I made the dress. Mr. Da Costa said he hoped I would make it very nicely for her. There was also a white Bonitos lace shawl and • bonnet with orange blamoms. The shawl was the first thing I com menced making. Mr. Da Costa said they were going to Paris to be married. I acted as NW Be maid, sad during this time Mies Berry conducted herself as • lady. Miss Louisa Denny—l taught the plaintiff music at Rich mon-terrace, and Weetbonne.park-villn. This lasted a ninth. I never saw the defendant. Mrs. Youeg—l take charge of the sick children at • school at Southampton. lam the mother-in-law of Mr. On Costa. My daughter went on • TOO to the defoliant's mother, bat not as • servant. The defendant married my daughter in July last. It was a good match. Ido not know that there is 100,0001. to be settled on my daughter under his father's will. Cross-examined —My daughter's father Ansa naval diner, and her marriage took place with Mrs Ds Costa's saac tioa. The defendant lives In his mother's house in Stanley garden Ido not know what the defendant's income is. An attempt was made to prove the ads/ulna's father's will ; but it failed in cemesqunec of the original will and probate being in Oilman the only document produced was an exemplification of the will from Dortors' Common, and there was no seal or act of the court upon it. Mr. Huddleston said he would admit the will, if his hien would admit that all the property mentioned In it had bean disposed of 'seep% some 6001. or 7004 • year. No witnesses were called for the defendant. Mr. Dishy Seymour, in summing up, complained stoney of the fact that after the imputatioaa which had been m t ut he upon the plaintiff, no attempt was made to prove truth of the insiontioes which had been made ; and in conclusion he appealed powerfully to the jury to give ample damages to mark not only their °pinkie of the plaintiff, but also their condemnation of the cones which the defendant had advised his counsel to pursue in con ducting this case. The speech called forth the applause of • number of persons in court. Mr. Huddleston, for the defendant, commented upon the very little control which Mrs. Berry seemed to have exercised over her daughter ; and the little core she took to prevent her from falling into evil courses. He also drew &iteration to the fad that, aotwithotaading the number of witnesses which had been called, there was not one tittle of evidence as to the tenon why the defendant left the plain tiff, or as to how she bore her lose. There was no evidence that she even regretted it, mod there she was now in court, good-looking and well dressed. His lordship said that one witness had said plaintiff was unwell after the defendaat left her. that the Mr. Digby Seymour—And one of the defendant's letters referred to her being " bathed in teen" Mr. Iluddleston--That referred to • time long before and there was no evidence that after the separation she dropped • tear or heaved • sigh, or indeed that she regretted more than defendant did what had occurred. There was no doubt that the defendant and the plaintiff had ved together as man and wife, and when connection li was broken off the defendant offered, if the plaintiff went to his solicitor, to make • fair eettlemeat, bat the plaintiff knew her power as a womaa, and therefore she forced the defendant into court unless he came to some arrangement his means would not afford. He trusted that under the circumstances the jury would take • reasonable and sensible view of the case. His lordship said that the jury would, if they thought the promise had been proved, consider what should be the amount of the damages. The plaintiff in such an event would be entitle d to receive an amount which would compeosate her for the lose which she bad sus tained in consequence of the promise having been made and broken. In adverting to the evidence, he said that the questions which the defendant's counsel had thought fit to put to impugn the character of the plane where the plainti ff had lived, and of other persons who lived there, were to his mind of an extremely painful character. Counsel, how ever, had • right to put them, though it now appeared that that there was ao foundation for the issinuatiovs. He must say that be thought it extremely desirable to try clan if pounds without misting upon third persons imputations which might give pain for years to come. The jury, after coniderin the matter for • few minutes, found a verdict for the plaintiff—damages. 2,5001. of The result was greeted with load &Wane, which course stopped by the officers of the court. A g ood deal of excitement prevailed among the audience, and it having become known that the plaintiff herself was present, she was on leaving surrounded by au sager crowd who escorted her through the great hall, and premed round the cab into which she got, struggling to get a glimpse of her.

He wished her good night, an imme diately she hid gone he mired his watch. He turned back and seized the prisoner, and gave ber into custody. Ho had only left her two minute s, and no one had spoken to him, yet the watch could not be found. She was searched at oun the police station by a female searcher, but nothing was found upon her. The presence handed in a long written statement, which she desired to be read. Mr. Hodgkinson (clerk) read the paper, wherein the prisour said that since she bad returned from penal servi tude she bad been trying to get an honed Brio'. Mr. Payee (to the prisoner)—l was desirous of keeping that from the jury, but you have pressed it upon them. You tat shout trying to get an honest living. Why, you had only been out on a ticket-of-leave for ten days before you returned to your old practices. The learned judge then carefully laid the facts before the jury. immediately The jury forted her Guilty. Gordon, policeconsUble 33 C, gave the prisoner • very bad character. He geld she had beam several times a/evicted. She had had six, nine, sad twelve months' imprisonment, and three pan' penal servitude. She had only beeo let out on a ticket-of-leave about a week before sbe wee taken oa this chary. Her ticket-of-lieve would not expire until Key next. His lovlship, in paineg sentence, said it was quite absurd to be saying anything to the prisoner. It wee veleta to waste the public time upon such an old offender as the prisoner. He always gave every facility to biennium in mime ; but reform, as regarded the prisoner, could not be dreamt of. The sentence of the court upon her was that she be kept in peel merited° fee seven years. The prisoner pleaded bard not to be seat to penal servi tude, for the make of her little children.

LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF COMMON PAR—Dec. 7. Sittings at NW Prins in Middleser.—(Before Lord Chief Jumbles Brie and a Special Jury.) BUSY V. DA cosy& —MACH OP PROM= OP MAIRIAOL (Owornded from yerterday's Express). Idre, Eliza Berry, the plaintiff's mother, said— When the defendant first came to me he said he wee going to marry my pretty daughter Mary, and he hoped that I should not be so cross with her. He said that he intended to sot pro perly towards her ; that he would have her properly edu cated sad taught music ; and that be would male her Madame Ds Costa. The plaintiff had before this gone to live st Mrs. Peddees, but had coatinned to wine home to attend to the bushier during the day. She afterwards weot aisle to Mrs. Fodder's, and she said that the defendant did not wish her to attend to the business in future. After wards she went to live in Devonshire-terrace, end subs& cower is Riehrsoad-terrsoe. I visited her at both places. After the return from Paris I was sant for and went. Mr. Ds Costa said that they had just returned from Paris, and added, " Mary, my dear, come here and show your mother your doge, and all the beautiful things that I have bought you in Parts." She She me two nngs, a diamoereud ring inn d a wedding riog. She put them on ter finger wh they ought to be, on het left hand. She showed me a beautiful shawl, some Hoodoo lace, and wreath of orange blosaoms, which of owneil thought were the wedding things. I did not ask any further about it. He asked her to 'how me her locket, and she took alooket set with pearls and I believe rubies, sad there was a miniature portrait of Mr. Ds Dont& 10 iR Something was said about the article, sad Mr. Da Costa said nothing wee too beautiful for the doling. He took another locket from his watch chain ;fit contained the plaintiff's miniature portrait which kissed when be was going to shut it again. After that I received a letter from the defeadant, but I have destroyed it, becalms I wan anaoyed by it. I had borrowed a shawl of my daughter, ad he had written • note to me about it. I borrowed the shawl to go to wedding. and I the did not return it so soon se I should have done, because wedding was put off for • fortnight. Mr. Ds Costa said that I was welcome to retain the shawl, for be would never let my daughter put on her shoulders anything I had worn ' that my daughter was nothing to me, and be hoped I would not interfere with them, which I never did after that. I again saw my daughter at the latter sad of last January. I thoucht that he wall married to my daughter. He dared me to Interfere with them, mad I never made any further ist rom iLa imbed —My daughter Mary had learnt the lace tosinem, but I swear she never est at "b e foreer of the street making lace.

I had opened a letter which came from the defendant to my daughter and which commenced, " My own dear darling Mary," ad the plaintiff came into the shop and snatched the letter the de ouf t of my hand and would not let me read t he other part that it. My daughter said the defendant would marry her, many inch man had married a poor girl. When I said, fondant came, he said. " How do you do," mid " How do you do, air." but we did not shake hands.

MT daughter was cram because I had purobseed tickets, and she did not want to go to the fete. I do sot know whether she re mined with Palmer all day ; she was not with us, that is all Ima say. Palmer was not with us. We saw her fre quently. I did not see her with anyone. Everybody danced with everybody—(langhter)—and she spoke to anybody she liked.

The following following despatch has been received by the Earl of Claseadon from her Majesty's Couszel•Uensral at Odor : Odom, Nov. 24,1865. My Lord, —lt having been brought under my notice that the cattle plague which has recently afflicted England exists almost perminently on the steppes of Rheum, I have caused inquires to be made among the peastntry, and have now the honour to report the result. It appears that though the attack differs in its symptoms, indamniation arming from cold is given as the tree canoe of it. There are several modes of treatment more or less efficacious, but the moat common is, to throw the dimmed animist into a profuse sweat with as little delay as possible, taking special care to protect it from chills for two or three days afterwards, when a change of pasturage, or, if in winter, stabling in a warm building seems indnommbly necessary to avoid relapse. The sweat is usually produced by covering the animal up with heavy cloths, and making it, at the same time, inhale the femme of hot brae, salt, sod steamed hay. Auother mode of trestmeat is, to apply friction with cloths or brushes, °covering up the ammal carefully afterwards. A third is, to rub the animals well with vodki (a coarse ov er h braody) and salt, especially on the spine and over the stomach. One of the farmers COOM Branitzky's estate near Kieff said he had baths, seen whic most h considered sucoessful resuam. lts, from the use of vapors . be best treatment knows, provided there ems good stabling and covering at ha 4 otherwise the animals are liable to subs.- enlist chill, oreas no such danger threatens those on which the same effect is produced by friction and cover on up, especially it the operation is performed in the open air, and the rattle put under cover without delay. Medicine is seldom prescribed, but sometimes a little mire dissolved in hot water is given lukewarm during the sweat, or immediately after, and linseed gruel, with pollen to excite appetite, are also now and then administered when the violence of the attack s ubsides. One peasant out of fifty who were questioned recommended warm iojeotions of tobacco water, while an other highly praised bleediog ; both confessing, however, that when the malady was of a bad type they had not been very successful with either treatment. One farmer residing at Amnion said he had effected many curie four years ago by tiring drenches of warm milk in which garlic had been boiled. Another from the same place asserted that he bad found repeated doses of vinegar and cold water of great servioe, when every other remedy bed felled. In the district of Alexandria a deoootion of two herbs named hub-he and hinbis, given warm, ia said to be very useful in stopping flux sod allaying Pais. The names of Mime herbs, however, do not seem to be Boman and are not known by the druggists here ; probably h uh-ha may be the . Turkish kbash-khuh (pop pybeads), and ! l iable the Turkish hiediba (chicory). They should be given and palavered in from the commencement of the attack, but if given to milch cows the milk should not be used as food fee several days after. The following is the receipt for the decoction above-mectioned :—Hash ha ;lb. pounded ; hinbia, 21ba. Boil for half-an-hour in two gallons of water, and administer in doses of about a lane wineglass full every half-hour until the pain remark ceases and the flux diminishes. It is perhaps worthy of that, according to a popular belief, the cattle plague ori ginated in the government of the Tacnda from the bite of the bleak spider, and gradually, as herd after herd were driven to the northern markets, the disease spread throughout Russia. It is asserted to be re newed from the suns causes in years of drought. Without added inviting implicit faith in this theory, it should be that these venomous insects, whose wale cover thousands of saes at land, produce eer:recasting suffering by their bite, sad ecessios such serious Moms among the shepherds that it is necessary to send the men who are bitten to hos pital. It is stated on good authority that the malady seldom attacks the same animal twice, though sent after wards to graze amongst herds of diseased cattle. Cattle are not slaughtered to prevent contagion, bat several measures are adopted to arrest the spread of the disease :-1. Fumi gation of stables and sheds with the smoke of dried pump kin leaves, or that of wild aromatic herbs. 2. botanic lee of the dimmed ca ttle, keeping them as much as possible to ward of the sound. 3. Pots or pans of tar placed hare and there in the cattle-sheds or stable.. Some of my informants state that there are localities where the disease has never penetrated, though surrounded and in free communication with infected places. Men are known to bare caught the disease from cattle, but such instances are rare. Whenever the cattle disease is more very v i r ulent, however, sickness amain the pease try is prevalent on the Steppe. Sheep are liable to catch the dis ease in years when the epidemic raga with violence, and this occurs when the second or autumn crops of grass fail in seasons of drought. Some dogs which had eaten the meat and offal of diseased animals are stated "to have gone mad," and their bite is said to engender the epidemic in a few hours. The late inspector of the Kherson hospitals has observed that diseased cows have been cored byep treatment when other remedies had failed ; he statement of this gentleman is supported by other corroborative evidence of great force and reepeetability.—l have. ha.
