THE disease which for some time past
"a has prevailed among the cattle, sheep and
-es swine in England, shows no signs of aba
ting From statistics at hand it is aseer-
tanned that the disease at present prevails
In about fifty English counties. In Scot
land, also, il exists in about twenty-three.
/, Notwithstanding that in many districts
throughout Great Britain exertions are be-
ing made to check the progress of the dis
ease, the exertisns so far have proved fruit
less. 1t is a strange fact that, although the
foot and mouth disease has been known in
Il the county of Norfolk for the last thirty
years, no efectual remedy has yet been dis
. covered by which its ravages can be stayed.

A Washington special to the St. Louis
Democrat says:
The Patriot, organ Of the Democratic Con-
gressiOnal committee, this morning has an
opening editorial in favor of proposition
that the Democracy shall unite in support
of COnservative-Republi ticket, and
promises further attention to the natter
This course is understood to have been
taken after full deliberation with many
leading Democrats. The Patriot indicates
that 1t will support movement so moder-
ate as to secure the cooperation of such
Republicans as Senator Sumner, and saws
the Senator from Massachusetts, too, would
bring with him force which would com
mand respect.
The concentration of the negro vote is the
great weapon on which the centralsts and
their candidate rely. and Mr. Sumner, and.
perhaps, one other eminent man, whose
name. in this connection, till his own views
are more definitely expressed, we hesitate
even distantly to refer to. are they who. of
all others, can wrench that weapon from
their hand. Nor could there be a better sun
plement to his life of devotion to this ema,l.
cipated race than by rescuing them from the
new thraldom in which they are plunged
the fruit of fear within and falsehood
without. The freedmen would have no fear
from any movement in which men like Mr..
Sumner co-Operated, and instead of being
moved in masses. as they are now, would
find themselves as independent as white
men-free to act and think for themselves

New BEDFORD, November 6, Evening
The excitement in this city during the last
twenty-four hours has not been equaled
since the reception of the news of the firing
on Sumter. The loss Of so great portion
of its whaling fleet will prove severe blow
to the commercial prosperity of the place,
and all classes feel it most keenly. When
the first telegram was received last evening,
it was speedily bulletined at the Merchants
News Room, and the sad intelligence quick
~ spread through every street. The people
congregated ut the News Room, the tele-
graph Office, and on the corners, to discuss
the great event, and await the arrival of
further news. This morning there was an
overhauling of books and papers and insuy-
ance policies, and counting up of insurance
scrip, great deal of the latter being in cir
culatiOn. There have to-day been the same
gatherings of business men at various places.
and continued discussions Of theprobabilities
and possibilities of the situation. Icalled on
several leading gentlemen this afternoon,
but they were extremely reticent, especially
those who are heavy losers, and disclosures
of losses will not be very extensive until
time has been allowed tor reflection and
striking a balance. The merchants here
generally wear an air of patient resigna-
ton. They do not have the Ceyil-msy care
sir saw manifested BY some Of the heavi-
est losers by the Chicago fire, but they joke

photographic Survey 0fVermOnt.

We are glad to see that the Secretary
of the State Board Of Agriculture, Manu-
features and Mining is taking the pre-
liminary steps toward obtaining hydro
graphic survey of Vermont, similar to
the one recently completed in Maine.
The immense importance of this mca
sure in securing the development Of our
material resources, can hardly be over
estimated but although it has been a
frequent topic Of private discussion, it
has never, we believe, been brought pro-
minently before the people or our legisla-
ture.
Within our borders, and readily acces.
slble, are many water powers, compara-
lively unknown and wholly unimproved,
and many others are but partially occupi-
ed, which offer TO capitalists and manu-
facturers unsurpassed advantages. Raw
material ID abundance also exists in vari-
GUS localities, inviting the skill necessary
TO render it available. A survey, such
as is contemplated, by attracting attention
to and thus bringing INTO use these i'm
mense natural forces now running to
waste, will greatly increase our strength
and productive power as community,
and cannot but work to the advantage of
all classes of our people; furnishing to
capitalists knowlelg. whereby they may
