THE WESLETANS AND TIIE
morning thelVesleyan Methodists had services in all their
dand observed the as one of
tionhumilia-
oon accountof the cattle plague. The services were
wellnattended.
CATTLE PLAGUE AMONG SHEEP.—In two places in
Fife and one in Forfarshire there have been out-
breaks among sheep of a disease which post-mortem and
loLondon
chapels,
other examinations, in the opinion of the veterinarians,
prove to be rinderpest. A good deal of alarm and desire
for confirmation of the statement that the disease is really
rinderpest is felt; the general opinion, since the confine-
ment of the English outbreak to ono flock in Norfolk, and
the experiments on sheep in Edinburgh, have been in fa-
vour of the all but absolute immunity of sheep from tho
plague —Scotsman.
