Contradiction of a Foolish Rumor.

Gen. Howard has authorized the denial
of the silly and mischievous rumor that he
threatened to appropriate certain lands IN
Maryland to the use of superanuated ne
groes, in case their former smasters refused
to care for them. The General, as chief
of the Freedman's Bureau, has done much
toward aleviating the sufferings of the e.
mancipated slaves, and preparing them for
a life of honest toll as paid laboring free
men, and he is too wise and moderate to re-
sort to the rash and arbitrary measure
charged upon him. But we are glad he has
so promptly authorized this denial, if only
for the reason that it will forestall a vast a
mount of splurgy opposition rhetoric.
The Czearfeld Republican, last week, pa
raded this rumor, with large heading, be-
fore It's readers. VIII the editor have the
fairness to correct it now, that Gen. How
ard has contradicted it? I'VE will see what

UNION STATE CONVENTION.

A State Convention will be held at Har-
risburg on THURSDAY, THE 18th AUGUST,
1865, at II clock NJ, for the purpose of
putting in nomination State Ticket, to be
supported by the friends of the Union at
the coming October election.
The earnest and jealous labor of a loyal
people secured the great victory in 1864, and
made the war, which our enemies denounced
as a failure, glorious success in 1865.
Our flag has been maintained-our enc
mics destroyed-our Government preserved,
and peace re-established. Let every friend,
who aided in this result, take measures to be
represented in that Convention. We must
see to it that the fruits of our success are
not lost to the Nation.
Business of vast importance will be pre-
sented For Its consideration. and every dis
trict in the State should be represented BY

Prepayment of Postage.

Previous to March, 1868, all letters were
required to be prepaid, and the people had
become so accustomed to the law that not
more than $4,000 unpaid letters were annu-
ally returned to the Dead Letter Office. But
at that date Congress passed law permit
ting all unpaid letters to pass through the
mails, the receivers of them paying double
rates. This arrangement resulted disas-
trously to the postal revenues, and SO at the
late Congress the law absolutely requiring
prepayment was restored. The people gen.
orally, however, are not aware of this fact,
for the number of unpaid letters returned
to the Dead Letter Office averages 14,00C
per day.

Soldiers DISCHARGED.

Just before the order for the disbandment
of the armies was issued, we are informed,
that it was the rule in the Quartermaster' S
Department TO dispose of army horses to
honorably discharged soldiers at nominal
prices. When soldier presented his dis
charge, he was allowed to select horse at
any Of the corrals, at a price far below the
actual value of the animal. This course
was adopted, we learn, as part of the sys-
tenn Of rewards In operation to requite faith
full private soldiers for services rendered to
the country. But like most plans to do JUS
tice to the brave, it was soon corrupted by a
set of sharpers, who organized movement
to buy the discharge papers of soldiers and
with these documents engage in regular
business of buying and selling horses. By
this move the soldier was not benefited to
the extent calculated. The horses which
the Government supposed would be distrib-
uted over the country, in the hands of sol
diers, and by those men used in some legiti-
mate business of acquiring livelihood, fell
into the possession of spectators, to crafty
their sordid desires of making money. When
the practice, as we have described it, became
a nuisance, the system was broken up, and
therefore the discharges OF soldiers ceased
to be a mercantile article in the market
We make this explanation in answer to the
inquiries of several soldiers who have writ
ten to us on the subjest of the sale of their
discharges. An honorable discharge in the
hands of soldier who has fought in the
war to crush rebellion should be of value
above all price, and should be preserved as
an heir loom to be handed down to the latest
generation. Telegraph.

Cattle Endemic in the Mississippi Vail ev

Uattle epidemic IN the MISSISSIPPI FalI ey.
The Memphis Bulletin reports, concernin G
the recently announced cattle distem per in
a part of the Mississippi Valley, as follows
We learn from gentleman who has just
returned from a visit to Philips and Critten-
den Counties, Ark, that the planters in the
Mississippi bottom have been, and are still
suffering severe loss by the death of their
horses, mules, cattle and hogs, by most
singular disease, which is carrying them off
ir great numbers.
In the early part of summer an incredible
number Of black gnats made their appear
aDce In the bottoms, and attacked not only
cattle and horses, but also birds, wild turk
eys, deer and other game, with such ferocity
as to kill, in a short time, quite number of
animals. After the disappearance of the
gnats disease broke out among the cattle.
horses and hogs, and has been raging for
some time, land is still prevailing, though the
it appears to be-is abating. This disease
| resembles very closely erysipelas, the attack
ed swelling up, sometimes under the breast,
at other times on the side, but more fire.
quently under the throat, and dying gener-
ally in from a to Is hours after being at
tackled.
Our informant conyersed with several in
telGgent planters who have been great suf-
ferers by this strange disease, among them a
physician eminent in his profession, and all of
them concurred in the opinion that it was
closely allied to erysipelas, and also that the
visitation of the gnats in the early part of
the summer had some influence in produc-
ing the disease. 1t is thought that the great
amount of poison which was necessarily alb
sorbed into the system by the bite of the
gnat-which is most poisonous Insects
developing itself in the disease which is now
ravaging the whole animal race in that re-
gion. Some cases, when taken in time, are
cured by precisely the same treatment prac-
ticed in cases of erysipelas, painting with
anodyne the effected parts have fine effect
The losses of stock, especially of hogs,
has been very great. One planter in Wal
nut Bend has lost over 200 hogs and seven
horses and mules, beside oxen and milk
cows. Another, living short distance "a
bove the one named, has lost Is mules and
horses, and hogs and cattle in proportion.
This is only two of many similar instances
of losses sustained.
On Saturday morning it was reported that
two men, who had been treating their cat
tie for the prevailing disease, had been sim
ilarily attacked their throats swelling In an
alarming manner.
