REPORT ON THE CATTLE DISEASE. The
Commissioners appointed by Gov. Geary, of
Pennsylvania, to attend the Cattle Convention
at Springfield, Illinois, have made their report,
in closing the recommendations of that Con-
vention, and concluding with the following:
That Texan cattle are not probably affected
by the disease in that State. The Cherokee
cattle are not found to communicate disease to
our common stock as readily as Texas cattle.
A similar disease does affect horses IN Texas
and not In the Indian country. Texas cattle
brought North, either by water or rail, or
driven on foot, may communicate the disease
to native cattle, but humane treatment while
ON the way will decrease the danger. Texas
cattle do have the disease and die from II In
the North, but much more rarely than our
own native cattle, Old native cattle are much
more susceptible than young ones. Compare
lively few sucking calves die from 1t. The dis
eases from whatever cause, have not been COM
muncated to the native cattle OF Missouri, IL
linOiS, Indiana, or Kentucky.
removes most of the danger, and that alter the
Texas cattle have been wintered in the North
ern States they will not communicate the dis
ease to one another.
In some cases noted in Illinois the horses APP
pear to have died of the disease. The great
marts of this trade are at Abilene, in Kansas,
and about the mouth of the Red river, at
which points the herds vary. From twenty,
FIVE to one hundred thousand head are at all
times kept, showing now immensely important
it is to watch that this vast aggregation OF
herded cattle is in good sanitary condition. as
well as that of horses, mules, and hogs herded
at the same or other places in the West and
Southwest, from which the East and many
foreign States derive most of their flesh and
living animal supplies.

Special Message.
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT.
Boise City, Dec. 18th, 1868.

To Hon. j. s. Taylor, President Of TIE
Council, and Hon. T. r. Beatty .Spedksr
Of the House Of Representatives.:
1t is thought there is a probability that
Fort Boise may be abandoned as a military
post In the event that this Post should be
abandoned, il is very desirable that the prop
erty should be turned over to the Territory.
The buildings are subs tantial and sufficient
ly cnmmudious to afford accommodations
flr all the Territorial aud Federal officers
Tor many years, including the Legislature.
In fact think we could not expect to be
better provided for than by having the use
of these buildings for Territorial purposes.
If the buildings should be dsmantled or
sold in the usual way when such posts are
abandoned, the proceeds would probably not
exceed the rent paid by the General Govern
ment and the Territory for public buildings
for two years.
We are laboring un 'er great embarrass
ments tor want of suitable public buildings
By turning this property over TO the Terri
tory our wants would be amply provided
for and the General Government would be
supplied with Offices for the transaction Of
all business at the Capital of the Territory
free of rent II will be seen from the ac-
companying letter Of the Hon. Secretary OF
the interior, James Harlan, herewith trans
mitted, that the military authorities are not
authorized to turn this property Over to the
Territory except by special act OF Congress
In accordance with the suggestions of the
Hon. Secretary, would respectfully submit
this matter to your honorable body, and
should il receive your favorable considcra-
ton, trust that You will memorialize Con.
gress in such manner that the object may
be accomplished in case the military post
should be abandoned D. W BALLARD.

The Proposition that Government

The Proposition that Government
should control the telegraph throughout the
country. as il now does the Postal affairs, Is
gaining favor rapidly BY such means alone
does il appear that the full benefits Of the
telegraph can be enjoyed by the people.
When MIR. Mashburne, OF Illinois introduced
his bill at the last session of congress, 1t was
shown that the telegraph system ia this
country has made far less progress toward
uerfeclion, and has been pro .uctIve OF less
benefit To the public than in Europe In
England the trlegrapbs OF the whole king
dom have been placed under Government
control, and by lowering the rates Increased
the business many fold and renders the tele-
praph what it ought TO be a cheap and ready
agent of communication. Tho chief oblec-
tion that has been raised to the measure Is
that il tends To Capitalization; but IL has not
been found that the fostoiiice business has
suffered from this cause, and certainly the
centralizati n brought about by placing the
husluesS IN the hands of the National Gov
ernmeut is lar less Objectionable than the
Capitalization OF IA great private monopoly.
Mr.. Washhurne's bill proposed that the Cost
of telegrapning, und the new system,
should be reduced 10 one cent word, Win
a charge OF ten cents for any message; "a
charge. of TWO cents ior delivery, and a three
cent stamp put upou eacn message. these
rates 10 be the same lOr all distances. The
nroiect will be brought up again in the com
mo session of Congress. and il is proposed To
test the operation OF the system by starring
nm experim sntal line between New Yorh and
washington; and -hould 1t prove successful,
an era of cheap telesrapning may be anticl-
paied.-TimeS

Says the New York Herald, in a recent
article upon the operations Of the Whisky
Ring:
The fact is that the Whisky rings have
virtually governed the United States for the
past three or four years. and the ,conntry
knows their lower They have had their
voices in the Cabinet; they hiye carried ma
lori.ies in both Houses of Congress; they
have poyerprd the departments and bureaus
at Washington; they have filed the offices
Of collectors, assessors, storekeepers and
giugars; they have placed their agents upon
the bench, at the bar, in the jury box and on
the witness stand. The subordinate posi-
ti0ns in the several districts have been liiied
on the recommendation of the collectors
and assessors with the right sort OF men anu
hence, when the principal officers have been
the allies OF the whisky rings, the whole
revenue force Of the district has paTtakcn oi
the same character The laws have been
made at the diciation OF these rings Inc
Congressional committees charged with the
construction OF a system Of taxation nave
called before them none but members oi The
whisky ring and their co-operaiors, ana the
very men who have made fortunes oy selling
their products al less than the tax noinInally
imposed upon their manufacture have been
deeme competent advisers in the amend
ment Of faulty revenue laws.
That this picture Illuminating as II IS, IS
b ,rtily ovcrdrawn, no one at all acquainted
with the subject will believe. and what IS
true of the Whisky Ring is in lesser degree
of all the minor but kindred rings; SO true
that there is but little hope that they can he
at once broken up even by a Congress Win
intentions, and an Administration with the
strongest predictions toward justice ana
honesty f. Times.

There is now but little doubt

There is now but little doubt
that Silver City has experienced an
earthquake. On Thursday night of
last week, the inmates of Wells,
Fargo q Co. IS Express Office, Blake
& CO. s Assay Office, and Van Slyke
Bros and J. NJ. Blossoms stores,
were aroused by a sudden shaking
of the buildings. Crockery and
lamps ratified and swung about in
the shelves and hanging from the
ceilings, and many other evidences
presented themselves, to the minds
of those who experienced the shock,
that an earthquake had actually oc-
Cured. We have waited for some
other explanation but without avail.
1t was at first thought tlat the fire
walls had fallen upon the roof. but
examination has proven to the con-
trary. These buildings are all in
one block. built of solid granite and
closely connected together, so that
whatever would jar one would be
likely to affect them all, but from
their massiveness it would take more
than any ordinary commotion to SEN
si5Iy disturb them.

A man by the name Of Wilson was caught

week and had his foot bailly crushed. He
was taken to Qaackenbush & Ushcr's Pacific
Hotel, where he is receiving the medical at
tention OF Dr. Burgi
Blacks Mill Is doing good work on
Rising Star ore The result of the first ton
crushed was 3Tk pounds oF dTy amalgam
without cleaning the pan. This may be con
sidered very satisfactory. This mill works
about three and a-half tons daily.
A desperate affray occurred on Fri
day morning last between D. H Simmonds,
of Simmonds' Hotel, and A. b. Frank, a
butcher in Flint, in which the latter was
struck over the head with mahogany cane
and his skull probably fractured. is re
ceiving the medical attention of Drs. webber,
Burgi aud While, VINO entertain but slight
hopes of his recovery We will not lorestall
public opinion by commenting on the affair,
but hope it may receive a fair legal investi-
CATION.
We are glad to be able to announce that
the Rising Star mill is about completed. The
problem Of saving the metals of Flint will
soon be solved so lar as present enterprises
! look TO such a consummation, and we hope
the company may be richly rewarded for
their untiriag energy and lavish expenditure
| of money in the County. II was their inien-
tion to start up the mil on yesterday and the
roasting furnaces on Thursday morning next
We suppose thirty of the forty stamps are
now hainmering away, and as they have a
thousand tons OF ore on the dump and in
the mill, that they will not stop for the next
six months.
