fatal distenlper is prevailing among the cattle in
Massachusetts to rightful extent. So general has
been the spread of this disease and SO great It's
ravaqes. that committee Of medical gentlemen was
appointed by the Legislature, to ascertain if posi-
bic the cause and nature of the disease, and some
remedy for It, Ten thousand dollars were appro-
priated for .he furtherance Of this object. The
Courier gives the following as the resutof the com
mittee's investigations at one place:
In the first one examined they found strong
adhesion of tire lungs TO the diaphragm, and acute
disease of the right lung The second case also eX-
hibited adhesion, accompanied by indurated lung
tissue and slOughing of the left lung. Cases were
observed in the course Of the day where the slough
inc business had proceeded so far that there was
veTv little healthy lung left And yet so insidious
IL the progress Of the disease that the farmer stout
" declares his cow has never been sick and will not
be convinced that there is anything the matter with
her till the proof is laid before his eyes
On one farm the committee slaughtered fourteen
cows: on another eighteen; on another fOrty-nine.
Altogether they have killed ore hundred and eight
cows. Here they stopped, the appropriation being
exhausted The Post says that the Governor has
been urged to call an extra session of the Legislature
to increase the appropriation 1t has been decided
however. that a Medical Board of the most expert
enced surgeons that can be reached should at once
be called TO investigate the subject and until they
shall make report all further destruction Of cattle
will be suspended. 1t appears by the testimony OF
stock owners that the disease Is as contagious as
small pox When the cattle are turned out to pas
ture as they must be very seon, no limits can be
assigned to the spread Of the disorder.

Democratic National Convention.

Our dispatches show that the Democratic Nation
al Convention commenced ballotting for candidate
for President on Monday night having first adopted
according to our dispatch, the motion Of Mr.. How
ARD, Of this State requiLng the vote Of two thirds
Of the entire electoral college to make nomination
We infer from this fact that Mr.. HowARD's resolu-
tons were adopted by the Convention and incorpo-
rated in the Platform. Nothing, however, is said in
our dispatches in regard to the adoption of the
Platform, though judge the minority report with
HowAHDs resolution incorporated has been adopted.
Atthis writing eleven o'clock at night, We are
advised Of the thirty-fourth ballot from which 1t
will be seen DoUGLAs has increased his vote b. o4y
two during the fifteen ballots yesterday. He still
lacks fifty votes Of a nomination and it looks now
as though he cannot get them.
Mr.. GUTHRIE's vote has run up to forty-seven and
one-half while the others voted for have slightly
decreased
The dispatches to the Louisville papers Indicate
that the seeding delegates will probably wait the
action Of the convention before they take any tep
and that should DOUGLAS be nominated, they will
most likely nominate candidates for President anC

We extract the following from the St. Louis Re-
publican of the i4th:
Rocky MOUNTAINS, August IS, 1s60.-Yesterday
afternoon just before sunset Mr.. 1. n. Tappan, OF
the firm of Tappan d Co., Denver and Colorado
cities, to whom was entrusted the making Of all
necessary arrangements for trip to the Califofna
Gulch about hundred and twenty miles due west
of Colorado, in the very heart OF the mountains,
drove up in single horse open buggy, OF rather
light construction, containing, besides himself,
roll Of bedding, few camp utensils, and pro-
visions for a three days journey; and, somewhat
to my astonshment informed me that he was al
ready for the proposed trip.
AS had surrendered myself entirely to his dis
cretion in makug the preparations, IN considera-
ton of his prior experience in the mountains,
nothing was said but my mind was full OF mlsgly-
ings, fearing that the light vehicle and one horse
although very strong one, would hardly make the
rifle. Soon after starting, my companion made an
important discovery, viz: that he had neglected to
procure more than one revolver, which was not
sufficient, as we might meet some Ute Indians OF
bears, which would give us trouble, with the re;
mark that Kit Carson, with all his bravery, would
not venture into the mountains so poorly provided
with means of defense. He returned to town ans
got navy siX-shooter, and revolving rifle, Colt
manufacture, with ammunition We were agah
! on the road towards the Springs, which are neal
| the entrance to the Ute Pass.
/ As we approached the everlasting hills,
towering thousands of feet into the air, with the
highest SUBMITS covered with snow, presenting te
ali appearance an impossible barrier to all lngres
or egfess to regions beyond, and remembering thu
many sayings ] had heard in days gone by, Whei
the subject of building a railroad from 81. Louis U
san Francisco was discussed by timd men, tina
I such project was an impossibiiity in consequence
Of the mountains, through which road could neye
be constructed, | confess to misapprehenslo
that nv companion had made mistake IN IN
choice of a travelling equipsge, and that we wei
destined to take back track in order to obtain
more substantial outfit.
AT the Soda Springs we found our Geerg
, friend, with his servants, still sojourning ther
drinking and bathing in the spring for the bene
j of his health. Suffice it to say, there was jng
of sundry glasses.

ruption, as no speaking Is allowed in the rooms
above whisper, very hard task for garrulous
women. Many other fine works Of sculpture and
painting surround the room. A large musical hall
occupies the upper story, capable Of seating 1906
persons.
The limestone soil makes terrible dust, which
they inundate in the main streets, making them
impossible to pedestrians; SO it is hard to say
which is preferable, dust or mud. They had only
9G degrees temperature the day before arrived,
but now the weather is delightful and oyercoats
comfortable. NUX.
