"THE UNITED STATES OF EUROPE, "A
member of the British Parliament, Mr. Gour-
ley, has lately. advocated, at public meeting
held in Sutherland, project long ago suggest
ed in this country, and at present favorite
scheme with leading spirits of the Internation-
al Society This consists in the establishment
of a United States of Europe by way of paral-
lei to the United States Of America Mr.
Gourley argues that only by such device can
the monstrous burden of standing armies be
got rid of, and the true interests of the mass of
the people be secured. His proposal is that the
several States should be independent as with
ourselves, on all questions of local and internal
government, but that Imperial questions should
be decided by a Congress held at national
capital, which should be European Washing
ton. Mr.. Gourley in his speech went on to say
that should such be the condition of Continental
Europe, "the policy of England, her colonies, and
America ought to be that of grand confedera-
ton and union of the whole of the Anglo
speaking people," This was received with i'm
mense applause, although, like the primary
suggestion, there is no novelty about it. So far
as this continent is concerned, it is not un-
likely in time to be carried out; but neither
geographical nor political considerations indi-
cate any probability OF trans-oceanic peoples
ever being included in an American confed-
eracy,

CORRUPTION IN THE MORMON CHURCHES.
W. S. Godbe has published crushing exposure
of church authority in the local government of
Salt Lake City. Jettis Canton, just reelected
Alderman, is shown to have been defaulter
and receiver of brides as police judge. The re-
port of the committee of the City Council years
ago, of which committee Godbe was member,
was suppressed by Brigham Young, who sus-
tanned Jettis as being, although dishonest, pc
culiarly fitted for his Office. Godbe, the present
leader OF the Mormon reformers, says it was
the first damaging blow to his faith, opening his
eyes to the abuses of Brigham Young's author
ity, and led ultimately to his apostacy. The
erpose creates great sensation.

A BILL has been introduced into the New
York Legislature which practically provides
for the confscation of the real estate and rail-
road stocks in that State, owned by aliens, for
the benefit of the commonwealth, on the COM
plant of any citizen to the attorney general,
who must at once bring an action. This in
famous bill is designed by the Erie-Tammany
ringto enable it to secure the entire control
of the stock in Erie road held by foreigners
and for no other purpose. As scheme of
robbery and violence it is unparalleled for its
audacity and the mere fact that such bill
could be entertained by legislature, makes
the subserviency of New York law makers to
this rufianly ring of robbers, shamefully evil
dent. This bill, it is said, cannot be enacted
by the present Legislature.

THE PRESS.
MONDAY MORNING. FEB. 10, 1879.

THE enterprise of the Republican journal
in having Geographic specials is most COM
mendable, but we hope it didn't pay much
for that Boston dispatch saying that Senator
Summers resolution inquiring into the sale of
arms to France sis veritable Waterloo to
the administration" If the movements of
the ant-Grant coalition are to result in such
prompt, decisive and unanswerable vindca-
tions of the administration, Grants reelection
will be made doubly certain thereby. The
baseless nature of the charges made in the
resolution has cast suspicion on the sincerity
and honesty of the malcontents. The Presl-
dent is much more likely to meet his Water
loo in the controversy with Mrs. Jane Thurs
ton, an account of which We republlshed
from the Washington Star recently, than in
meeting the meaningless aspersions OF his
Senatorial foes.

THE HORSE EPIDEMo.-What will be the effect
of even temporary withdrawal of the horse power
from the nation, is serious question to eontem-
plate. Coal cannot be hauled from the mines to run
observation-disclosures cannot market their produce
boats cannot reach their destination on the canals
DIS drawn against western shipments will be
tested-merchants will become alarmed at thu
appearance of customers-panic will seize IT,
munity, and, aside from the many millions to
lost in the value Of horses the most disastrous un-
settling ofvalues is more than probable.
The disease seems to be without precedent 1t
exhibits itself in three forms-catarrhal rheumatic
and gastro-eryspelatous-al termed by veterinares
epizootic Influenza. To prevent the disease the
well animals must not now be hard worked They
must be kept on soft food-ike bran mash. carrots
and sailed hay-not allowed to drink cold water
warmly housed and well blanketed-have plenty of
clean bedding and rubbed with proper stimulating
emollients.
Those which are sick, in addition to the above
should be given warm dax-seed tea, muriate of am
monia, belladonna aconite sand sweet spirits of
nitre. The nostris and eyes must be kept well
rinsed with pure warm water the windpipe, throat
chest, belly and legs bathed and wrapped in emol-
lents. And for this nothing seems to have such
wonderful power as Centaur liniment 1t is pene.
trating-s quickly absorbed by the system and acts
alike on the glands, muscles, and lungs 1t is
certain preventive, and superior to opodedoc, tur-
pentine or capsicum. Well horses thus treated will
not take the disease, and in stables where four
ffths of the horses have been attacked this treat
ment has cured the most of them in a few days. 1t
is estimated that there are now 10000 sick horses
in New York, Brooklyn and Jersey City, and the
disease is rapidly spreading throughout the coun.
try.
