CATTLE Prague IN ENGLAND. From the dis
patches of our consul at Liverpool, England,
dated January Goth, 1866, We learn that the
cattle scourgo is rather on the increase than
otherwise. He says that during the week
previous to date, 9,243 cases were reported to
the authorities. Thus far upwards of 70, 900
cattle have either died with the plague OF
been killed after taking it. The consul says
this, in reality, forms but q small proportion OF
the actual loss, for hundreds of cages are never
reported, and thousands are slaughtered pre-
maturely, and hurried TO market before the
plague attacks them. Vaccination is being
tried as preventive. II is probably too
soon, however, to report definitely upon its
success, but there seems TO be no doubt that
the experiments, as far as they have gone,
have been favorable. The high sheriff Of
Cheshire vaccinated ten cattle and exposed
them to the plague, thus far they have not
taken it, Star.

The insurance is $3.50, 900.

From the New York Observer.l

We have had in use for months past one Of
Vests Pumps. which has given us more sat-
dissection as force and lifting pump than any
We have ever used. 1t il one of great power,
and well adapted for ships decks, mines, fac
tories, greenhouses, graperies, &C., &c. The
Mining Chronicle and Railway Journal says:
1t is recommended for its extreme simplicity
OF construction, groat strength, and conse-
quent durability and cheapness of repair
There is no stuf6ng box-the pressure being
held by cup packing, like that upon the
working piston, working in a cylinder, fitted
for the purpose within the upper air chamber
which We think great improvement, as stuffing
is SO liable to be deranged, and leak under
strong pressure, to say nothing of the loss by
friction incident thereto. 1t has also two air
chambers: thus the action of the valve is
cushioned upon both sides by air-prt venting
water-hammer and vacuum thump. The valves
are very accessible, and simply and cheaply
repaired. They work much easier than any
pump we have ever seen; the 4 inch cylinder
being worked by children in wells 100 feet
deep, and as they are extremely cheap as well
as simple and strong, we freely recommend
them.
