LATER FROM THE INFECTED
DISTRICT.

The commissioners on the cattle disease
were yesterday reinforced by DR.. LOring, and
continued the work of slaughter and examin-
alton with energy. They dispatched TWEEN
ty-live cattle, all but one of which exhibited
marked signs of the disease in the substance
Of the lungs.
In the course of the day the commissioners
received applications from several neighbor-
ing towns where the disease had either bro
ken out, or was strongly suspected on the
ground of exposure. This was regarded as
almost disheartening, and at least render
ed highly necessary the employment of a
larger force to prosecute examinations and
continue the work of slaughter.
The commissioners will Immediately issue
circular inviting the people of the Com
mOnwealth to contribute to the guaranty
fund.
The Board Of Agriculture will meet in
Boston on Tuesday next to deliberate upon
measures Of relief and prevention.
1t is proposed that the Governors Of other
States be invited to send agents to Massachu-
sets for the purpose of examining into what
they may yet be called upon to deal with
within their own limits. 1t is not improbable
that the seeds OF the pleuropneumonia have
been carried from North Brookfield, by the
way Of Brighton market, out of the State ::
and the necessity Of calling for Congressional
aid, in the form Of appropriations and pre-
Ventiye enactmcnts, may soon be apparent.
The magnitude Of the evils resulting from
the disease in Europe, is positive evidence
that the danger which it threatens to our
own interests cannot be overrated, and hence
no means OF relief should be lost sight Of.

TwENTY-sEvEN PERSONS DROwXEp.-A
shocking disaster occurred near Camden. )
G. on the 9Th inst. A large party were
gathered at Boyken mill-pond, some eight
miles from Camden, for days fishing In
the afternoon, after a fish bake on the shore.
about half the party went out on a large fat
boat, intending 20 pass over and around the
pond, two negroes acting as boatmen, and
few gentlemen only being on board as e.
cOrts They had been out some time and
were near the center Of the pond, when the
boat ran on a snag. Soon it was perceived
that the great pressure Of the boat upon the
snag I'm consequence Of the number it con-
tained) was puncturIng its bottom, and that
the water was making its way inside. No
mentaTily the danger became greater. and
mOmentarly the excitement Of those on board
as wei as those on shore, became moro In
tense. The boat would have probably been
pushed of and run near enough to the shore
for many if not all to have escaped, hal it
not been that those who stood at each end
with their poles, showed in opposite direc-
tons, thus mutually destroying tie effect Of
their efforts. In few moments the boat
began to sink The widest excitement and
fear seemed TO seize every heart, and but isw
if any were sufficiently collected b enable
them to employ their efforts for rescue al
vantageously. The scene may be better i'm.
agined than described Piercing cries and
shrieks, and calls for help, both from tho>s
on shore and those on the unfortunate boat
filled the air. Sisters and brothers, parents
and children, relatives and friends whose
hearts were bound together by the nearest
and dearest of earthly ties, and anImdr-I BIZ
the warmest and most tender affection wsr-
there-some on the sinking boat and some on
the shore. Twenty-seyen persons in all Were
drowned-sixteen young ladies, nine young
den, and the two negroes.
