(No, no.) IV. right too, you know--(laughter and
applame)—aud he had emit this young lieutenant
down here to talk to them. He could only hope that

would give it them free. They did ait believe in
bribery or c irruption. They would have a glorious
meeting. [A Voice : Perham you will have Mr.

THE CATTLE DISEASE.

kir. R. Duke (Ilioretou), writs' to the Soudard
Wove :
Ble,—Tb. following facts will serve to show ths
rm 7 UallatillhOtOr, work's, of the Regulations now
la force se to the movement of Stook, owing to the
ootesteat ohenitee Wing made Ia tb form of holsoi by
the different boil authorities; and I feel oostvisea
ibas an maw legialaike oh the wee= • hot

and month disease I am only echoing the opinions of
a very large majority of agriculturists when I say,
that it is absolutely necessary that there should be
one uniform Rage applicable to the whole country,
instead of almost every county having a different
form of its own, tile now the orae. Charges of the
sang frivolous nature as my own are of almost daily
occurring ; sad as in every case • fine is impoesd,
many are led to belles• that progcutioas are instituted
more with the view of raising funds to meet the
expense enLiled by the enforcement of these
restrictions in the different cluntiee than with any
other object.
Towards the clog of last year the Executive Cap-
tains' for the Western Division of the oounty of
Bugg, in virtue of the powers omiterrod upon thorn
by the Contagious Moodie' (Animals) Act, Issued
instructions for the guidance of those interested,
together with • form of licence fir the movement .4
stock lot, their jurisdiction. So far, so g oil. But
I a short time since the Committee thought fit to issue
another form of movement Hoene.; and the cone.-
quenoe is that, belog entirely ignorant of any
alteration in the R sgulations, I send • hundred sod
forty sheep from the county of Dorset (which is
entirely free from dbege) into the ciunty of Sussex
under the form of licence issued in the first instance,
and which, I may her. state, was fax more stringent
than that now in force. For so doing I am summoned
two hundred miles before the Chichwter Bench, of
whioh the Duke of Richmond was Chairman, who
Intimated that the plea of ignorance as to the Regula-
tion* having been altered c oold be aeciptel as no
, valid gage, and that I had rendered myself liable to
• very heavy fine; but, ae I suppose the Bench
acquitted me of any wilful intention of evading the
low, the reitioid penalty of five pounds was impoeed.
Now, Sir, from the foregoing I think you will agree
with me, last some immediate alteration in the exit-
ing law I. peosseary ; and I venture to hope the
matter will receive that careful attention in the di,
curious now proceeding on the subject that its
importanoe justly demands.—l am, Sir, your obedient
