The horse disease was rapidly abating in

order was increasing in Philadelphia, and
large numbers Of street cars had been with
drawn.
New York dispatch Of the 1st say
several members of the Hall jury who votet
for conviction had stated priv ately that none
of the jury believed that Hall received any
Of the stolen money, and this question did
not enter their debate.
Hon. Z. B. Washburne was in Chicago on
the LIST en- route for his home at Galena, Ill.
All omnibus and street car travel was sus-
pended in Chicago on the Sd because of the
diseased condition of the horses in the city.
The streets presented deserted and forlorn
appearance. DR.. Paaren, the veterinary editor
of the Prairie Farmer, who has been at the East
investigating into the particulars of the
disease, gives the following advice:
With regard to the treatment Of this disease, it
is certain that everything depends on attention
and good nursing. These two things are even
more essential than medicine; for many an ami
NAL will survive that has not been taking particle
of medicine, but has been assiduouslY tended dur
ing its sickness. Bleeding and physicking is dan
gerous. All depletive measures should be avoid
ed the strength cannot bear IL. The horae should
be kept in a warm, dry and well-llttered stall or
box; ventilation and cleanliness should be at
tended to- The body should be blanketed, and
the legs hand-rubbed, and bandaged with flannel
or hay bands. Exposure to drafts OF air should
be avoided
hay sliced carrots or apples and occasional messes
OF soft. warm food, in small quantities, such as
oatmeal Cruel boiled harley, or scalded oats. II
there is a difficulty in swallowing, a mild embro-
cation should be applied TO the throat Setons,
rowels, snd blisters should be avoided. The drink
should consist of pure water. from which the chill
should he removed by adding one fourth warm
water. Luke-warm lnseed or hay-seed tea Ia
beneficial: Frequent sponginG Of the eyes, and
nostriis with luke-warm water When great debil-
ity prevails with little no appetite, give twice
daily half a drachm of tincture perchloride Of iron.
and two drachms OF the compound ttncture OF
genttan. Disinfectants should be used, but not
under the nOse Of the horse. Chloride of lime
should be sprinkled behind the horse, diluted with
twenty parts OF water or carboic acid, same dilu-
tion. Smoking with tar will do no good, and is
positively hurtful as irrtates the surfaces
of the eyes and nose, and increases the catarrhal
discharge characteristic of the malady.
"AIl noise should be suppressed, all strangers
forbidden to enter the stable; none must approach
the animal but the man it is accustomed to, and
to be done must he accomplished as quickly and
as quietly as under the circumstances is possible"
In view of recent acts of lawlcssness in
Kentucky-the taking from Jail and hanging
of anegro incendiary in BathCounty by mob,

effort to bring the guilty parties to punish
ment, and calling upon all good citizens to
assist in the work.
A Washington telegram of the 9th says
"The President has recently received several
anonymous letters, informing him that, in

sions.

dence in Philadelphia, on the evening of the

The New York Tribune of the 18th contains
a card from Horace Greeley, announcing his
resumption OF the editorship of that paper.
He says: "Since he will never again be a
candidate for any Office, and is not in full
accord with either of the great parties which
have hitherto divided the country, he will be
able and will endeavor to give wider and
steadier regard to the progress of science,
san journal can do, and he will not be pro-
voked to indulgence in those bitter person
alities which are the bane of journalism"
The horse disease had so far subsidized In
Boston on the 9th that business had nearly
resumed its usual activity. The spread OF
the distemper in Pittsburgh, Pa, had seri
ously interrupted business.

The election for President Of Mexico re
suited in the almost unanimous choice O
Lerdo de Tejeda. The votes against hin
were few and scattering. The programme
that the President proposes for himself ha
been made public, and may be condense'
into this phrase, "Little politics and mucl
