Under the heading of 'Pedagogucs

the enormous sum of 1885, 900 for

. added the poll-tax, which ought to real

Butwhy should the Times find fault
with the National Congress for brooding

IF the Congress had enacted laws, or
made treaties, or done anything else, it
might have been different.

The letters which have been received from DR..

part with accusations directed against DIR. Kirk, the

The Great Horse Epidemic.

There is now prevailing in the
eastern and northern cities among
the horses, a terrible disease which
is called catarrh, 1t begins with
fever, and has all the marks of cat
arrh in the human species. 1t first
made its appearance in Canada, but
soon crossed the border, and spread
rapidly all over the east and north.
The cities of Buffalo, Rochester,
Newark, New York, Boston, de-,
have suffered dreadfnlly. The city
horse-cars. drays, wagons, and
eve rything in which horses were
used have been stopped altogether,
or the slow-go OK the dull ass, and
in many cases, manual labor, sub
stituted for horsepower. AS we
read the dreadful accounts-the sad
havoc made among the equines, our
sympathy is strongly drawn out
at the suffrrings of that noblest,
most faithful and sagacious of all
animals, the noble horse. who will
love and serve a good and kind
master with more fidelity, more en-
dnrance, more patience, than any
other animal can or will.
The disease has already reached
the western cities, and the South
can not hope to escape.
One account says:
It is estimated that in and around
New York there are from 10000 to
10000 suffering dangerously from
the disease, while it is still spread
ing and he alarm increasing. In
Rochester more fatal cases were re-
ported than during the whole time
since the malady. No hauling is
done Many canal boats are Lard
up; many arrive with dead horses
on board. In Boston, the first
known and authenticated case of the
horse malady being communicated
to human being was reported last
Russell White, the dri-
yer of No. 4 engine, while attending
his horses was taken suddenly with
the disease, and was conveyed to
his home. He had all the symp
toms of the malady-cOughiDg, run
ming at the nose and eyes, and
general feverish debility.
Wagons filled with perishable
articles are drawn by men. There
are very few horses to be seen on
the streets.

The Vicksburg and Canton Railroad

We regret exceedingly to learn
that work on this road, which was
commenced only two weeks ago,
has been already suspended. The
cause, we learn, is, that there was
no money"-the corporation had no
back bone. We suspect that the re-
cent decision of Attorney-G General
Morris, that the railroad subsidy
law was unconstitutional, which
would have given to the company
four thousand dollars per mile, had
much TO do with the suspension of
the work. There is nothing more
certain than that railroads cannot
be built without money, and if that
prerequisite was not on hand, of
course the work had to stop.
We are sorry at such a sudden
and sad termination of enterprise
that we thought certain of success
but it seems that it is another
mOonshine milky-wateI road to the
moon, like the Mobile and Great
Northwestern.
Alas, for Canton! Are we to
fail i'll every enterprise that would
go to build up our prosperity?
