Wasn't 1t shameful2

The Radicals held a mass meeting one day last
week at Lewes. and. a. is the custom, advertised a
free ride the railroad to all who wished to favor
the meeting with their presence Some seventy
or eighty coored people OF Milford, having abund-
ance Of leisule time on their hands thought they
would accept the generous invitation and accord
ingly repaired to the depot. Now this was per-
picking to the white RAIDS, who did not care to
show their friends at Lewes where their strength
lay, but the ingenuity of Mr.. Lofand was equal to
the emergency. A few words with the engineer
settled the business. The "white gentlemen were
invited to take seats. and soon as the last white
foot left the platform the cars were in rapid mo-
tion. The indignation Of the colored braves at
being thus outwitted was very severe, but some
one, by arrangement, soon sweeteaed their tenn
pers with a decoction of whskey and sugar, and
laid all the blame on the hurry OF that engineer.

Tho Plague IN New York.

EIGHTEEN THOUSAND HORSES REPORTED UN-
FIJI FOR woRK-DuMMy ENGINES TO III:
rUT ON THE STREET RAILROADS..
NEW YORK, Oct. 2j-Thousands of people
Il. this city were to-day Obliged to resort to
Professionalism, owing to the continued rava-
be found in which the disease has not made
its appearance. Rainy weather is generally
regarded as very unfavorable to animals at
fected. Three lines of cars, to wit, Broad
way, Broome street and Seventh Avenue,
have been compelled to withdraw fifty y-sx
teams and trying to obtain dummy engines
to replace them Upwards of three hundred
have been Withdrawn from the different lines.
STRANGE SCENE.
The New York Commercial -ideert,aer tells
us that the city was strangely quiet Thursday
night-there seemed to be something want
ing. People looked dismal in the uncertain
light Of the street lamps the sidewalks were
neither wet nor We're they dry; the pavements
were slippery with mud, the night was hazy,
and there seemed pervading Stiffness, just
as though NO Thoroughfare = had been
placed in the main avenues and all tue street
travel interdicted. 1t was the strangest sight
at II O'Clock and at midnight around the Park
at Madison Square, and in the vicinity of the
Flfth-avenue Hotel that has been seen for
years. New York was sepulchral. and SIMPLY
because the horse life of the city has been
found an important integral part of the city
existence.
TO THE HEAVY RAIN.
BALTIMORE, Oct. 25. A heavy rain-storm
prevails here, with no prospect of abating,
and in consequence the races of the Mary

Largest Land Sale Ever Made to q
Single Person,

From the Kansas City Journal
On Friday last formal sale was made by Gen.
Robert +. Carr. president of the Kansas Pacific
railway, to Geo. Grant, ESQ, of London. England,
Of large body Of land covering twenty four auare
miles OF territory lying contiguous to the line of
the Kansas Pacific railway, in Ellis county, Kansas
The tract extends thirteen miles along the railway,
twenty-four miles along Victoria river, thirteen
miles across the country to Smoky Hill river, and
has seven miles Of water frontage on Smoky Hill
river. new city, to be called Victoria, will be
laid out along the railway. fine station house
will be erected, with lodging apartments for new
corners. An elegant hotel will be built and all the
necessary watertanks, stock yards &C. to properly
conduct the business of an important station will
be supplied. The railway officials offered to name
the new city after Mr.. Grant, the purchaser, but
with great modesty he declined the honor and pre-
ferred to have it called after his Queen This ex-
tensys purchase will result in untold good to our
country. Mr.. Grant, with his usual energy and
good taste, will expend u large amount i'll laying
out park, end in erecting buildings, tree plant
ing. &c. He will 60 to England at once AMI ex-
poets to return to this country i'll March with fine
selection OF blooded horses, cattle, sc. number
Of experienced farmers stock ralsers, &c. will also
be sent over. 1t is Mr.. Grants intention to sub
divide his purchase into farms of various sizes, to
erect farm-houses thereon, and to sell land and
improvements at fair rates, and upon terms which
will enable every industrious person to obtain a
good home in a fine section OF country.
We predict that Victoria will be one Of the most
important towns in Westarn Kansas, and that
when the contemplated improvements are made
the advantage Of residence there will be mani
fest to all.

Tho Horse Disease.
ITS APPEARAxCE IN CHESTER ,ou,

ITS APPEARAxCE IN CHESTER COUNTY.
The dreadful horse disease, which is deyas-
tating the equine population of many portions
Of the country, has made its appearance in
Chester county. The West Chester Record
says:
About three weeks ago. horse belonging 10
DR. J. r. McClurg. of West Chester, was taken
sick, showing all the symptoms of The Canada
horse disease, although at first it was thought to
be distemper. The animal discharged freely at
the nostrils, the whole lining membrane being
inAamed. The base Of tongue was very much
inflamed and liberated, rendering swallowing
very painful, great tears standing in its eyes
when it attempted to eat, and starvation seemed
TO threaten the poor beast. The horse being
very feverish purgative medicine was given,
with doses Of one pint ofglycerine, and one dram
Of liquid carbonic acid. Permangenate of potash
injected up the nostrils soon changed the dis
charged. The stable was kept perfectly clean
and the animal kept quiet and well groomed.
Yesterday the animal was very much improved
eating its feed with little or no effort The
disease WAS not ut all contagious, as there was
horse standing on each side of the sick animal,
able TO touch it with their noses. II required
the greatest care and attention to the sick animal
to prevent fatal result, and good nursing proved
better than medicine.
Two horses belonging 10 the Livery stable Of
VIM. NJ. Smedley, West Chester, showed slight
symptoms Of the disease on Monday last; but
prompt remedies and treatment by DR.. Rayner,
promptly checked further progress, and the
animals have recovered
A horse belonging to Jeremiah Starr, OF New
Garden, died few days ,ince of what was
thought to be an aggravated form Of distemper.
