The editor Of the Cleveland Plain Dealer has
been re.appointed post master of that city by
the President over an original Buchanan. A
few years age when Buchanan was a candidate
this man Gray of the Dealer thus described him:
1.-THE small and malignant clique who wear the
name of James Buchanan on their collars, are
en0Avoring to sell the Democracy of Pennsyl-
vania into the hands of South Carolina traitors.
James buchanan never was elected by the peo-
pie to an Office, except when he was federalist.
he has not ethrob of democratic feeling about
his cold-blooded bachelor heart. He could not
receive the votes Of twothirds of the people for
any Office. And yet by the force of management
Of the basest kind of political machinery, he has
been able for years past, to crush the Democra-
tic party of this State, (Pennsylvania,) to hang
about his neck like mill stone, to kill every
progression of thought in its bosom. He and his
tools virtually gave the State to Taylor in '4s,
and if Bigler is defeated good and noble man

CATTLE MURRAIN IN GERMANY.-A terribly
fatal disease, known as the 4I,trraia, is raging
among the neat cattle in that part of Europe
lying on the Gulf of Finland, andsbetween that
Gulf and the city of Lubbock. So fatal is it, and
SO easily and rapidly communicable from one
herd to another, from one province to its neigh
Dor, that in England an Order in Council has
just been published which forbids the importa.
ton of cattle, or of horns, hoofs or hides from
any of the districts in which the epidemic pre-
walls The disease which has necessitated these
precautions has ravAged Silesia, Mecklenburg,
and part Of Holstein for two or three years, and
has latterly assumed a type so deadly as to
rouse the apprehension Of the principal govern
ment of the Continent. The governments of
France, Prussia, and some of the smaller Ger
man States have already made regulations for
the exclusion of the tainted cattle, or any part
of their carcases. In view of these facts and
in appreciation of the action of the government,
the London Times says: uss = ~; 5-al,
Temporary dearEcss of meat, of leather, or
of tallow, is but small evil compared with the
Introduction of malady which may sweep Oft
thousands of our cattle, from Hampshire to the
Highlands, and perhaps, after ravaging the
country for two years together, and by perma.
nently deterioraung the various breeds. In our
damp climate, where a large supply of animal
food is necessary for keeping up health and
strength, the consequence of such calamity as
a general destruction of animals can hardly be
contemplated without the deepest apprehension.
No such event has happened in our own day, or
even in the present age, but in former times
such disasters were far from uncommon, and in
the last century Europe was more than once
swept by murrains which destroyed the animal
food of entire nations. We think, therefore,
that the Government has done only its duty in
prohibiting all importations from the infected

Look out for HowIinp

There is bound to be trouble among dogs and
dog owners in this city before long. We see it
sticking out very plainly. We are satisfied Of it
from the twinkle in the eye of Jimmy Wells
when he looks at cur-trom the very sudden
and energetic manner in which he administers
clubs and rocks to those found straying about
the Market House, and from the remark he is
known to have made the other day, viz: That
he was going to commence carrying his rife,
and would shoot every dog for whom he could
find no owner or get no tax. When he gets to
shooting there will be tribulation, and, perhaps,
a small speck of war at the sbanties along Hawk
Eye and elsewhere. Dogs, male and female, of
high and low degree, will be left bleaching in the
sum- while the board cottages of New Cork will
be desolate and their inhabitants refuse to be

1t is scandal upon Religion that the servi.
ces of the Sanctuary are not as free the air We
breathe, yet we know not of any Protestant
Church where seats arenot at the service of
those who see fit to attend. The extravaganza
OF church ed,hces, anteonsequent high price of
permanent. sitiugs, do not debar any from the
enjoymenl of Sunday sevices, although they do
create false pride which deters thousands from
attendance upon Church. Yet 1t is untrue that
Protestant Churches not in fact free; they are
attended too by some one whose duty it is to
seat all persons not owners of pews.
With the Roman Catholics, it is not so. In
London, for instance, the price for entering
some Churches is graduated according to the re-
pata,iou of the Priest who dictates. When the
Rev. Mr.. Newman, the flr.famed convert from
the Church of England, breaches, a shilling is
charged al the door, and half tina, price
dinsr, occasions.
To what extent this custom of taking money
at the door OF Roman Catholic Chrohes in this
country, prevails, We do not know, but most
dssgracetal case has lately come before . Cour.

"These elections do demonstrate this fact
beyond a cavil-that the sentiment of major.
ity of the people OF the Union is irrevocably op-
posed to the extension of slavery: that they are
determined, if Overwhelming public sentiment
can avail anything another slave State shall not
be admitted into the confederacy. And why
are they so determined? Because they believe,
and not only believe, but see aud know, that
slavery is All unatigated curse to the soil that
sustains it. They know this because they see
every free State outstripping every slave State
in all the elements that make a people power
full and prosperous; because they see people in
the one educated and thrifty, and in the other
Ignorant and thr.tless; because they have be-
fore their eyes State like our own once the
