DISEASE AMONG HoRsEs.-A fright
in Kings, Queens. and Suffolk
counties, New York. Not long
since twenty died in one day, and
every day found new victims. 1t
is apprehended that the disease is
contagious. A number of horses
have lately perished in England
from an epidemic. The N. York
Commercial has a letter stating
that this disease has extended to
New Jersey. The same disease is
said to prevail to some extent in
Scotland. The New Haven Pal.
ladium states that the epidemic
has also made it's appearance in
Connecticut.-A blister between
the eyes is said to be the most
effectual remedy, the seat of the
disease being in the head.
South Carolsn;an.
The New York Wing Conven-
ton have nominated rs the Whig
candidate for Governor, the Hon.
John Young; and Hamilton Fish,
as Lieut.. Governor.
ANOTHER SrEcK OF WAR.-We
learn from the Cincinnati Times,
that all the troops now at the
Newport Barracks have been or
dered to proceed forthwith to the
interior Of Ohio, for the purpose
OF removing the Indians, by force
of arms, from the Miami reserva-
ton. purchased not long since from
that tribe, to their lands west of
the Mississippi. They refuse to
move, AS they are dissatisfied with
their new home. from the reports
OF those persons sent to view it.
The annual value of British
commerce with Mexico is cstima-
ted by the British Minister at
Washinton at ten millions of dol
lars. The annual procee IS of the
Mexican mines have been twenty
millions of dollars for some years
past, more than half Of which has
gone to Great Britain.
There is strong likelihood that
the magnetic telegraph will be
extended from the United States
to Montreal and Quebec. A gen.
tleman in the former city has Of
fered to construct it for $4,000.
ANOTHER CoUNTERMAND.--Letters
were received at St. Louis on the
10Th instant, from the War De-
partment notifying the United
States officer at St Louis of the
determination of the Government
to dispense with the services of
the regiment Of Infantry called
for by the requisition on the Co.
vernon of Missouri of the 18th of
July, and which regiment has, ere
this time, assembled at Fort Lea.
venworth. The order directs that
they shall be mustered out of SER
vice as speedily AS possible, either
at Fort Leavenworth, or any 9TH
er rpoint where they may be. They
will, of course, receive pay for the
time which they may have passed
in service, for travelling to Fort
Leavenworth, and we presume,
six months clothing.

The deepest Artesian well in
Europe, is in the Duchy of Luxem-
berg. Its present depth is 1886
feet, nearly 9s4 feet more than
that of la Grenelle, near Paris.
1t is said that this immense work
has been undertaken for working
a large stratum of rock salt.
MALLEABLE GLAss.-A foreign
paper speaks of a marvellous in
vcntion which has come to light
within the walls of St. Etienne-
the production of a sort of glass as
malleable when cold as while red
hot !! The Moniteur des Arts says,
this new metal, which ere long
will be Of more value than gold.
and which the inventor has called
Sicilicon, is Of white color, very
scnorous, and as brilliant and
transparent rs crystal. 1t can be
obtained with equal ease, Opaque
or colored; it combines with va
rious substances, and some of these
shades prodace combination Of
extraordinary beauty.
SICKNESS AT THE WEsr.-From
all we can learn, says the Alexan-
dria Gazette, we should judge that
the present has been the most
sickly season throughout the whole
West, since 1888.
