what the German Democrats Think
The editor of the Arbeiter Fresad, Of
this city, was present as a spectator at
the recent Cincinnati Convention. In
his paper Of last Saturday, he gives an
account of the proceedings and says:
"Our opinion is that the reform
movement has already such deep hold
on the people that there was never
greater willingness to make any neces-
sary sacrifice to cleanse the Govern
ment from corruption. By the time
the National Democratic Convention
meets, the political skies will be so far
clear as to enable us to see more clearly
whether the Greeley,Brown movement
has taken strong hold of the masses,
and whether the Liberal Republicans
are determined to adhere to the pro-
posed reform, in which case the en-
dorsement of the Cincinnati ticket may
be probable. If, however, the Greeley.
Brown ticket is not so favorably re-
ceived, and Republican adherence to
Grant predominates over their zeal
for reform, the Democratic party will be
bound in honor to nominate candidates
of it's own. That the Democratic plat:
form should in thai. case be most lib
eral one is selfevident; also that the
faithful remainder OF the Liberal Re.
publicans must see that to the Demo
cratic party belongs the leadership Of
the struggle for governmental reform.
So many complications may arise dur
ing the next two months that it will be
prudent for Democrats to wait for fur
ther Developments before taking posi-
tive stand. If the Democratic Conven-
ton resolves to support the Liberal
Republican ticket its success will be
made absolutely sure. The Liberal
Republicans already know that it is
only by the help of the Democracy that
they can repair the mistakes committed
at Cincinnati, while at the same time
Democratic support Of candidates who
have all their lives been the bitterest
foes of the Democratic party will show
a self-sacrifice in the interest of the
general welfare such as has never yet
been recorded in the history of political
parties in the United States"

TIE late Attorney General OF the
United States, Hon. HENRY A. STAN
BERRY, man Of education, experience
and ripe judgment, has been travelling
extensively in the South and declares
that no man can witness the acts Of the
military rulers in these States, as he
has witnessed them, without becoming
satisfied that a change of administra-
ton and of party is demanded by the
best interests of the country. We
doubt if Poland in Russia has suffered
60 much from "bayonet rule" as South
Carolina!

IT is said at Washington that the
English Treaty, that much Wanted feat
of the Administration, is now regarded
as a total failure. There will be no
arbitration or settlement Of the real
damages, through the preposterous
squabble over the imaginary ones
which there has not been sense enoug h
in the negotiators to adjust. Greater
imbecility than this has never been dis
PLAYED in the conduct of public affairs.

MANY members of Congress express
the opinion that no tariff bill will be
passed during the present session OF
Congress, but that the internal revenue
laws will be changed so as to retain the
taxes only on spirituous, fermented and
matted liquors, cigars and tobacco.
They also say the prospect is that Con-
gress will adjourn on the 29th Of May.

The Horse Distemper.

The horse disease, which made such
ravages in Canada, was last week dis
covered to be affecting the horses in
New York state, and has since that
time shown itself in all parts Of New
England. Almost all horses are affect
ed, with greater or less degree Of
severity, being attacked with loss OF
appetite, watery eyes, cough, running
at the nose and weakness.
SO general has been the disorder in
New York that the running Of the
horse cars has in large part stopped,
seriously impending business, and in
Boston oxen are used to haul goods
through the streets The following
are among the most popular methods
Of treatment:
DR.. Elliott, veterinary surgeon of
st. Catharines, gives what have proved
to be valuable sugges ions for the
treatment Of horses suffering from the
epidemic now so prevalent. DIR. Elliott
advises that the stable be well ventilat-
ed, the horses blanketed, and chloride
of lime sprinkled through the stable
every morning. The nostrils should
be sponged out two Or three times a
day, if the mucus adhercs thereto,
The food should consist Of bran with
little oats, and moderate quantity
of hay. If the bowels are costiyc,
halt-pint of raw linseed oil may be
given butt is probable that the mash
will cause sufficient relaxation.
Prescription No. , (given below
should be administered every morning
and evening. Ii the throat should be
sore--which can be ascertained by the
pressure of the hand upon the larynx
about two tablespoontuls Of prescrip-
ton No. l (also given below should
be rubbed in. So long as the disease
is confined to the larynX there is but
little danger, but should it descend to
the lungs-which will be indicated by
the continued standing up Of the ami
nal, cold extremitles and laboring
breathing-a half pound Of mustard
should be mixed with two ounces of
turpentine and water, to the consistent
CIV of thick cream, and the mixture
rubbed well in behind the torelegs or
over the region of the lungs. The
Ices should be bandanged if cold. If
the pulse should be more than fifty
five per minute, fifteen drops Of Elem
ming's tincturc of aconite should be
given every two hours, and if the
breathing still continues labOred and
the pulse grows more rapid, apply the
mustard again, and give one and a half
drachms of calomel for two mornings,
The following are the prescriptions re-
ferred to:
"PreScription No. l---Linseed oil,
ID ounces turpentine, | IL ounces ;
liquid ammonia fort, ounce. Mix all
together in tour-ounce bottle, and
apply to the throat, if you think it
necessary to do so"
"Prescription No. Nitrate potash
l 1-2 ounces; tartarized anthony, l
1-2 ounces; digitalis, l2 ounce. Pull
verse all together and make twelve
powders; give one morning and night. "
p. S.-If they are not very bad you
might omit the last ingredient, namely,
digitalis.
This has been tried, and a gentle
man who had one hundred and fifty
horses saved them all.
