This will take the road TO tie rich valltyy Of:

It is gratifying to know that most Of tho re-
ported cases ct sae new cattle disease outside
Of North DFoottied hare prored to ba alsa
alarms. With the exception Ct the casts sun.

thiuk Of no case ont of the infected district.
aud as the people Of u.!istoro appear 10 have
been c1clttd 10 a panic BY ruuors Of diseased
cattle being sent INTO tha: Tlcinity from Massa-
chusetts, they may have come 10 hasty coucIu-
sions. Th. only evidence that the three cattle
killed at Hi1isboro had the disease is the opinion
of Dr.. Calria Gutter Of Warren, who has exam
ined some Of the Drock6cld catsle. The cxses
reported il Wiudham County, Ct, were only
cases Of poisoning by sheep laurel, with the eI-
ception Of the cow illed at Stafford. which had
not been exposed, md seems to hare had only
the common lung dissase- There WIS aa alarm
1t Wlnpsor, It., about cattle driven there from
this state, but shey proved to he healthy, fat
cattle, from The Connecticut valley, where no
signs of the nluTra'n hare yet appeared. Tho
cases reported in Rhode Island and On Caps
Cod did not pEove 10 be genuine. There are re-
ports OF herd from Massachusetts, dr1ren 10
Lisbon, Ct, cue of which has disd, and the
death is attributed 10 p1euro-pneumonis, but
the fact does not seeo1 to hare b:en verified in
any way. So fAr,as We haze any rellable eTi-
dence there is reason - hope that the diseased is
now limited to North Brookfsld, where We hear
Of no II cent cases.

Twas present today 1t M examination of
two amin lis that died Of p1euro,p ,pneum onia.
from this place, md ut Newark. on The fars. Of
AbEan Juhusoc.
The history Of The disease :: these PLACES, as
We can lcurn. Is this. During the summer Of
1858. Mr. Il. l.. lacobus bought Eoma twenty
roung cutie ia New York, which be brought
home mud turned int0 pasture some three miles
from Cha,hum. 1t wns ab3u: three weeks n.ter
when Mr. J. again saw THIN. hen, to his sur
r.ise, le fnnnd two dead and two thee 9th
ers sick. TAeF wt.e !: once rl-cs1 in separate
pasture, ard none OF ih,m bare *iuce had The
disease. During the same Fall, Dr.. Mum, Of
Chatham, bought three heifers from this lot OF
healthy cattle, yardinE theut with his dihe1
steck. Soon after ~hich the disease made its
appearance among scme of his older animsls-
four dying very soon after, and others taking
the disease basrecoscriug.
From Dr.. Muun's yard it WAS communicated
to that Of sfr. Luu, by driving a cow there,
where sher = named but very shor. time. Ar.
had the diseA*e be links bave. recovered, aad
one is now sufIesicg from it. but with pros
pect OF recovery.
From the4e yards it spread to six others
each OF them losing from one to Gyc animals---
making twenty four deashs in all in this place.
lne1E NFe UOH Uut k"u CaSeS III %H6 place 4GQ
it is hoped that, with proper care, it may be
confined 10 them.
The c4ses At Newark sre also traced directly
to cattle brought from New York. Mr. Abrarn
johnson, farmer and dairym living one
mills from Newark, on the road leading to Eliza
bs.h, tought ia Drowniue's yards ID New York,
about the a0lh Of December last, six spring
calves, and took them to his farm, where
he then had aoma xi1ty head. About six
weeks alter receiving these CAVES, one of them
was taken SICK, rcfus=d its feed, and sho = ed
all the symptoms Of the disease as it exists in
Massachusetts,. Af1cr lingering about. TWO weeks
it died. Two wceks alt=r, ! COW was taksu in
the same wag; she also lived for about two
weeks. About three weeks after, three others
took it, and new cases hare been frequent up to
this time. Mr. johnson hss lost four animals,
has had i've cases which be thinks bare entirely
recovered, has now five ef.k, and one was killed
to day for examination, making fifteen casss in
all on his place. Early in Hay Of this year Mr.
johnson sent forty Two head of his cattle, in.
cluding the fire remaining calves from Brnwn.
ing's yard, to Newfoundland, Norris County. to
pasture for the Summer. At that place there
are large tracts Of uuinclosed lands, On whieh
large numbers Of cattle ara pastured during the
Summer, and these cattle, il is feared. may, By
coming in contact With hundreds of others,
spread The disc Sc over II vide extent Of couu-
try. Nj. johnson, at the time Of sending these
cattle to pasture, was not aware Of the nature of
the disease, and has not tiuce heard from them.

Bless God for Rain.

'BLEss God for rain" the good man said,
And wiped away grateful tear,
That we may have.our daily bread,
lie drops shower upon us here
Our Father, Thou who dwellest in Heaven,
We thank Thee for the pearly shower;
The blessed present Thou hast given,
To man and beast, and bird and flower.
The dusty earth with lips apart,
Looked up where rolled an orb of flame,
As though prayer came from its heart
For rain TO come, and 10 it came
The Indian corn, with silken plume,
And flowers with tiny pitchers filled,
Send up their praise Of sweet perfume,
For precious drops and clouds distilled.
The modest grass is fresh and green,
The brooklct swells its song again;
Mcthinks an angel wing is seen,
In every cloud that brings US rain.
There is a rainbow in the sky,
Upon the arch whore tcmpests trod,
God wrote il ere the earth was dry,
1t is the autograph of God.
Up where the heavy thunders rolled,
And clouds on fire were swept along,
The sun rides in car of gold,
And soaring larks dissolved in song

Opinions of MIR. Douglas ON slavery.


The Dubuque Herald, whose editor was
the recipient of Mr.. Douglass letter prescri-
bing the platform which he would accept the
nomination of the Charleston Convention,
and may therefore be looked upon as the au-
thorized exponent of the views of that gentle
man, quotes his declaration that abe did not
care whether slavery was voted down or up"
and adds the following explicit eommen-
tary:-
"Judgc Douglas as Northern man, does
not believe in the justice or equity OF slavery.
lie believes it to be an epii, but one which,
as the citizen of non-slayeholding State,
he is bound in honor, in good faith, and by
bis official oath, not to NEEDLE with, but
leave il to be continued or abolished by the
States or Territories where it exists. If he
was citizen of Territory his voice would
be heard advocating the erection of free
State"
If Southern society be sinful and wicked,
why does not Mr.. Douglas at once join the
Black Republican party and cease making
such wry faces about what he will be COM
PEELED to do in the endl If it be wicked to
keep negroes inferior to white men, as God
ordained-ifit be an "evil 10 have 3,o0o,-
900 industrious negroes and good to have
5000, 900 lazy, useless ones-if it be an evil
to raise 100000 or 100000 bales of cot
ton per year, and good to have devastated
and neglected plantations, why then, we al
low that Mr.. Douglas is right and the Demo
cratic party is wrong. We 60 for preserving
the existing institutions, which were good
enough, and righteous enough, for our fore
fathers, and which have produced degree
of national prosperity and development to-
tally unparalleled in history. We would not
hazard our commerce, our business, or our
form of government to carry out the unnat-
ural doctrine of negro equality. Mr.. Doug
las, on the contrary, joins hands with the
Black Republicans, for holding as he does,
that slavery" is wrong if he be honest he
is bound to do all he fairly can for its oUer-
ttrowl Can the South trust such man
Not unless they believe him dishonest, and
that he will not act up to his convictions
Such man, it is needless to say, deserves
neither support nor respect. 1t is now very
certain that Mr. Breckenridge will be tri-
umphantly elected if the people Of the South
do their duty, and roll up unanimous vote
for him. If the Dougasites of the border
States-most of whom, no doubt, like Mr..
Douglas himself, are unsound on the "slaye-
ry" qucstion-draw offvotes enough to give
the States to Bell and Everett why the South
will herself have elected Lincoln; for with a
united protest coming from every Southern
State against the Black Republican candidate,
we can produce such a reaction in the North
as to elect Breckinridgc.-N. Y. Day Book.

THE Chicago Times, the home organ Of Mr..
Douglas, is no more. The proprietor Of the Chi
cago Herald has bought out the concern, and
consolidated the two papers. Mr.. Sheahan, the
