THE CATTLE PLAGUE.
Ths PsstiIsncs in Pittsburg and AlIs-

The Pittsburg Commercial Of Saturday says:-
In this city prompt and efficient means were
taken to dispatch the diseased animals as soon
as the symptoms were sufficiently developed,
and also 10 prevent the spread Of the con ntagion
to other herds. Yesterday Mr.. Hosack, the
Meat Inspector, visited tine Stock Yards at
East Liberty and killed the remainder OF the
eighteen carloads which had become diseased.
Thirty-eight head were killed yesterday, and
and renovated. Ore hundred aud forty head
were shipped East to Communlpaw, near Jersey
City, TO a crease and bone boiler az that place,
who paid S38 per head, while the price paid
here was only SO per head. these were shipped
In separate cars, and the cars Will not be used
again for shipping cattle until thoroughly reno
waited, and until sufficient time has elapsed to
warrant iheir safe use tor that purpose. OF the
entire lot of eighteen cars, Mr.. Horst owned
forty-one head, OF which eleven died, and one
was killed, the balance being sent East
two hundred and twenty three were con
demned, and but one hundred and
forty sent East, the remainder either having
died or been killed by order OF the Meat lnspec'
tor. One lot, belonging to MIR. ID. Croft, passed
on directly East, not having been Teshlpped at
East Liberty. and the number Is uukno Tn,
but ii is reported that several had died before
passing last OF the Central Stock Yards. The
lot of one hundred and forty head shipped to
Communipaw, went by special train, and tele-
graphic advCes and orders were sent ahead TO
all points, and to the yards at Jersey Clty, ..
The Mayor has stationed policemen at
the East Liberty yards to see that none
of the carcases are disposed of for any
other purpose than that of con-
version into grease, etc., and a special police
man is stationed at the establish ments where
the rendering process is carried on; The disease,
thus far, has not been developed among our
native cattle; and 1t is safe to conclude that,
unless we have fresh importations OF affected
stock, the danger of contagion has been ayerted.
We do not enter ain for one moment the idea
that a single particle of the flesh OF these
animals can, either purposely or accidentally,
find It's way to the meat market. Inere Is
an extremely limited demand for cattle, and
the best and most healthy stock is purchased
very cautiously and scrutinizinely by our outch'
ers. The consumption OF meat has fallen ou Ia
marked degree, not from any wellgrounded
apprehensions that diseased meat might pc
offered in the market, but simply because the
more fastdious of our flesh eaters become dis, +,
gusted at the simple reading OF the accounts 10

prevailed. The gorge rises at the bare thought
of the possibility o. eating unwholesome flesh
and the appetite for the most tempting Ioasts Is

he had been reading the accounts In the
papers descriptive of the Texas fever, and
was ten pied TO ask his wife from whom
the meat had been purchased. She replied that

The same abstemiousness was noticed at the
restaurants, aud the proprietor of one OF our
OiniDg-saloons was heard TO remark that he had
served twenty pounds per day less beet since
the panic commenced. Confidence will soon be
restored, no sever and the saeorv roasts and
juicy steaks will be in demand as before.
Considerable excitement was occasioned in
Allegheny yesterday morning by the report that
some cattle from the East Liberty Sock Yards
offered TOR sale in the market. UOon inquiry 1t
was ascertained that a number of bead had been
shipped to Allegheny, and that they were in the
Second ward yards. The cattle reshlpped were
from Kentucky, and we're said to be in prime
condition. Some persons seem to fear that they
may have become infected with disease, having
been with those which died at the East Liberty
yards.
The effect of the panic caused by the breaking

yesterday. A reliable butcher states that not

butchers were not prepared for the panic, and

catastrophe, were found at o'clock yesterday
Randolph street. boy, while balhing In the
lake, first discovered the corpse hoating in the
water, and notified officer Clark whI secured it
by rope. The Coroner afterwards had the
body removed to the dead house, where he
minutely examined it. 1t was almost entirely
nude, the remnants of chemise and
figured alpaca dress only cllnGing to the shonl-
ders and waist. From appear ances it seemed to
have been in the water for some months. which
gives rise to the belief that deceased was
on board the i'll tated vessel aud met
her death at the time of the calamity. The feet
and hands were nearly gone, having been food
for fishes, and the halr, OF q dark brown tinge,
was also partly gone. The body was greatly
swollen, and the features were SO blackened
and otherwise dis6gu-ed as to render immediate
identification by meaue OF description almost an
impossibility. A gold-plated ring, with CORFU.
gated top or cap, was taken from the touIth
finger of her left hand, and attached to her
dress was found part of small round breast
pin with gold binding and mutation jet back
ground. Deceased was probably forty years OF
age, as near as could be- judged. The remains
will be retained by the Coroner until friends or
relatives shall cali and idenufy them.

The capital of Mississippi was on Thursday
evening the scene of military outrage-an out

we have recently had occasion to chronicle.
The parties 10 this outrage we're Col. Biddle, the
de putty satrap commanding the post of jackson,
and q drunken subordinate named Rodgers,
Lieutenant of Cavalry. The circumstances of
thls latest diabolical outrage, as we learn them
from gentlemen who were on the ground, were
about as follows: The Democracy of Jackson
that is, all the decent people, white and black
ratification meeting and torchlight procession
on Thursday night. Some of the young
men prepared an effigy of General Grant

much as the great butcher was represented
with long cigar in his mouth and b title

Cature, that offcious aud impertinent satrau,
Colonel BIddle, wrote note to the Hon. John
d. Freeman, torbldding the exhibition of the
carlcature referred to, because Grant IS the
States. In deterence TO the wishes of this super
sensitive shoulderstrap wearer, the eff1gy was
changed to represent Beast Butler, and stolen
spoon, instead of cigar was placed in his
mou b. While the procession was passing, a
drunken rutfian, Lieutenant Rodgers. made
gallant charge, with drawn sabre, upon the
harmelss efigy, and soon brought It., manned
and mutilated, to the ground. In his desperate
encounter with thing like himselt-the mere
effigy of a man-we understand that this gal
liant cavalry officer wounded one of his relations
by cutting off an ear from the mule which bore
the offensive effiey As the demonstration was
purely political and peaceful-as every one was
il q good humor-the gallant representative of
the army was the only person preseut who was
armed, fact to which Lieutenant Rodgers ives
