Curability of the Cattle Disease

While the Royal Commission appointed by the
Crown to inquire into the origin and progress of the
Great National Calamity of the Rinderpest or
Cattle Disease is yet meditating its Report, and
while the date of the meeting of the New Parlia-
ment (among the earliest labours of which will be
the taking of that same Report into most serious
consideration) yet remains to be decided upon by
the will of the Sovereign, under the loyal and
conscientious advice of her Majesty's Government
—it so happens most opportunely that the country,
the Government, the Royal Commissioners them-
selves, are enabled to recognise, what we for our own
part do most firmly believe to be the thrice welcome
truth: that the Cattle Disease is cheaply, readily, and
perfectly curable ! This may appear a bold asser-
tion to make, but of its immediate and absolute
justification we are thoroughly well satisfied. And
because of this we would here thus explicitly direct
attention to the matter most unhesitatingly. Satisfied
in our own mind that the Cattle Disease is curable
—and curable, moreover, as we have said, cheaply,
readily, and thoroughly—we would now hasten to
set forth here at once as distinctly as possible the
nature of the remedy, the cost of its application,
and the name of the principal person by whom this
reliable remedy is advocated, or, as we may even
say, introduced into this country. And first of all,
let us mention forthwith—to the end we have
just stated—that the arch-champion of the new
remedy for the cattle disease—for many years a
member, and no obscure member either, of the
House of Commons—although no longer, much to
our regret under the circumstances, a member of
that House—has himself hastened over at this time
into England from his place of residence in Switzer-
land, for the express purpose of bringing
his views upon the vitally important mat-
ter here referred to personally and as strenu-
ously possible under the consideration of the pro-
per authorities. Mr. Urquhart, formerly M.P.
for Stafford, has not only just now arrived in Lon-
don for the purpose of advocating the employment
of the great remedy of Radiating Heat for the cure
of the terrible murrain of the Rinderpest, but he
has already, we understand, made an offer to the
Commission to have erected—at his own expense—in
the worst, that is to say, in the most malignantly
infected locality that can be anywhere selected,
a Turkish Bath for diseased cattle—so that he may
there and then demonstrate, under the scrutiny of
inspectors appointed by the Royal Commissioners
themselves, the perfect accuracy of his statements
in regard to the complete curability of the Cattle
Disease or Rinderpest. Having said thus much
ourselves, we would here extract from a recent
number of our Swiss contemporary, Le Mont Blanc,
the following excellent remarks, having reference to
the important subject under discussion :
