rpYcurFTI HORSE DISEASES IN NEW
YORK CITY.
po.,o.r Thousand Horses Threatened
with Death.
No. rwred Surrenders 10 the Sheriff


>-,,,r YORK, Oct. 23.-Gazelle won the
dociJinc heat and race yesterday, which
ms p6stponed from Monday. Judge
E"IIorton won one heat. Time, 2:23J; 2:21;
9.92I; 223J; 2:2S!.
The horse disease which is occurring in
fbe different cities outside of New York
and which had caused great deal of eX-
element among stable keepers and car
companies, has made its appearance in this
city, causing the greatest panic. The dis
ease appears to have appeared first in the
city in magnitude on Monday afternoon,
although there were some few cases of an
earlier date. Contagious qualities of the
disease are very violent, and within twen-
ty-four hours from the time the first symp-
toms of sickness were noticed in one large
stable one thousand horses under the same
roof were similarly afflicted. A reporter
who has visited the principal stables states
that no less than seven thousand horses In
all were affected. Up to yesterday even
ing the horses of the different stage lines
and street car companies were all more or
less affected. On the 9th avenue railroad
line two hunered horses were stricken
down in four hours, the company being
compelled to Withdraw some of their cars
Over two thousand hsrses on the Sd
avenue line are suffering. In the stables on
the So street stage line some five hundred
horses are laid up. Up to midnight last
night no deaths occurred except in the 9Th
avenue stables. In Brooklyn the disease
is reported to be spreading. 1t is gravely
apprehended that the disease will spread
and materially interrupt the means of traf-
fic throughout the city. There are some
Ii thous md car aud stage horses in New
York and if equine travel becomes stopped
this season the losses to business will be
very heavy. The disease is denominated
catarrhal fever it commences with a
cough. In about SO hours running from
the eyes and nose is developed, the horses
become weak, the affection being though
to be similar to the Canadian epidemic.

THE PROSPECTS FOR NOVEMBER.
A German Democratic Prediction.

The New York Stats Zeitung, the lead.
ing German Democratic paper in the
United States, of the November election
says:
If the "LiberaP press did not endeavor
to Intentionally deceive and belle itself
and its readers, it would, instead of insist
ing that the elections which have been
held were no measure by which estimate
the opinion of the people, and particularly
the result of the November elections, adj
m it the true state of affairs, which consists
in this: The Republican party developed
greater strength at these elections than il
has done for years, and the small detection
of the Liberals is more than repaired by
Democratic votes, and the fusion party not
only has not become stronger than the
Democratic, but considerably weaker.
The prediction which we made as early
as the first part of May, that if the Grant
Greeley dilemma remained, Grant would
not only be elected by a greater majority
than it 1868, but with so splendid q MAORI
ty as but few Presidents have yet received,
and that Greeley would prove one of the
most disastrously defeated Pres idential
candidates known in the history of the
United States, will be fulfilled.

Mast at Work,

From New York letter.
On visit to Harpers' Publishing House,
1 found this genius of the pencil in the
midst of his work, tracing on wood a car
toon for the coming Weekly. He receives
visitors kindly, is affable and genial in
conversation, apparently unconscious of
the fame he has won. His personal APP
pearance is not particularly striking; he
Is of medium hight has an exceedingly
pleasant face, with decidedly Hebrew
cast of countenance. He says he is con-
stantly besieged by people who have their
personal axes to grind, and wish him TO
use his talent for the purpose of personal
gain but he devotes himself to Harpers' ,
for which he is paid $500 a week. While
engaged in conversation with him, one OF
his own productions was brought in by one
of the workmen completed ready for the
printer The device is first traced on wood
by the artist, and then it is given to others
to cut. The result of the late elections
have given material for unusual attrac-
tons, which Mast is never slow to make
tell, and which he has used for the coming
week with more, if possible, than his usual
skill

years. He also found much fault with the
acts of Congress since the war. His feel
ing was that the State government of Ten
nessee had been wonderful success in the
hands of Brown, as the State debt had
been so largely reduced by the selling of
railroads and the leasing of the penitenti-
airy. At the close of his speech there was
one man in the house who applauded him.
He was followed by Singletary who
made one of his best and most telling
speeches, with which the Republicans Of
this county were very highly pleased.

sance. Mrs. G. refusing to accede to
his imperative demand to remove both
