THE EPlZOOTIC.


From the New York World.
The hores raised on Sunday by the fine
state of weather. which it was reasonable
to prophesy for yesterday, were not fulfill
ed, and livery stable owners, express COM
panies, truck prOprietors, and merchants
who have goods to transport throughout
the city were generally Respondent. For
the horse epidemic, instead of being mti-
gated in its form and violence, seemed to
have increased in both and where only sick
horses were reported on Saturday, dead
horses were found yesterday. Various
fatal cases. something over 200 in number,
were reported at the different precincts
yesterday morning aud intelligence of more
were hourly coming in. Several of the
leading physicians of the Board of Health
express the opinion that the disease will
not remain where it is at present, but be-
fore long mankind may expect to suffer
from its effects.
TIE EFFECT ON THE BUSINESS MEN.
The cars and stages on most of the lines,
however, were running, with the number
of trips greatly reduced, so that the chief
difficulty lay with the merchants. Dray-
men are becoming comparatively million
aires-those Of them who have horses to
work. Along the North River piers mer-
chandiZe is piled up in huge heaps. More
than half the cargo of the Baltic Loyd's
steamer Franklin, which arrived last
Wednesday, still lies on the wharf, and
there is no immediate prospect that horses
can be obtained to move it.
Thousands of cotton bales remain in the
different slips, and merchants are compell-
ed to pay fabulous prices to have them
moved. AT Pier 20 East 81 bale was
paid, and one person received $50 for car
! 81, H., 9 tla
Boston and Province steamboat line are
literally covered with freight, some ofwhich
has been lying there for days. The officers
of the New Jersey Railroad Company say
that an immense quantity of freight is
awaiting shipment at the pier used by that
cooperation.
THE GRAIN DEALERS.
Business, especially in flour, has been al
most brought TO stand-still. Cameron
are having full swing" and are obtain
! ing as high as 81 per barrel for hauling.
Purchases made on Wednesday and Thurs
day, for which orders were given, were
thrown up and the orders returned because
of the difficulty of obtaining dIayage.
Private kilograms from different parts OF
the State on the line of the canal are con-
stantiy received, and are of the same alarm
ing nature as those TO hand on Wednesday
and Thursday.
1t is feared by merchants that the stock
of beadstuffs in the city will be exhausted
| if TIE horses on the canal should give out.
| There is a movement on foot to prepare
for any emergency, and place steam tugs
in the canal if necessary. Parties largely
interested in the grain trade have fears that
they will not be able to meet their obliga-
tions. The butter, cheese, and hop trades
have also been greatly effected by the mala-
dy; some shipping houses were compelled
TO suspend. The grocery trade also feels
the want of trucks.

TIE Illinois Stats Zeit,ng, the prnci-
pal organ Of the German Republicans OF
the Northwest, pays the following deserv-
ed tribute to their fellow countrymen in
Pennsylvania for their substantial service
they rendered in helping to win the late
magnificent victory in this State. Re-
marking on the stumping tour of Senator
Schurz, just previous to the election, that
paper guages the effects of his labors here
by the following figures:
"There are twenty-five counties in the
State in which the German element num-
bers above 1000 souls. In these counties
the Republican party lost not only not a
single vote, but gained in comparison with
former elections no less than 10, 992 votes.
Yes, the Germans do their own thinking,
and are no great mans voting cettle."
No class of voters, as a whole, have a
clearer insight into politics, or exercise a
more intelligent irmness in adherng to
their principles, than our German fellow
citizens

GRANTS SELF-REsPECT. - President
Grant has borne himself throughout the
Presidential canvass in such manner as
to greatly increase the high respect in which
he was already held by the nation. He
has acted with calm dignity aud a self
respecting reserve eonspicuously contrast
ing with the indecorous spectacle, the pite-
Gus appeals, and the nauseating abasement
exhibited by the morbid and infatuated
Greeley. Instead Of travelling about the
land soliciting votes for himself and play
lug every disgusting part to win them, he
has preserved a becoming silence and a
manly attitude. He has demeaned himself
from the beginning with the spirit which
BELTS his position as President and n Presi-
dental candidate.

washburn.s Life in Paris.

WASHINGTON, Oct. Representatives
oftwo Germaii- American associations to-
day presented Hon. Elhu ID. Washburne
an address expressive of their grateful re-
cognitiOn of his kindness towards German
residents of Paris during the horrors of the
siege, In not only carrying out the liberal
instructions of his Government but in the
voluntary sacrifice ofhis own personal com
forts, and giving cheerfully from his own
stores to needy and starving Germans.
Minister Washburne, in reply, says the
credit for his acts is due the Administration
of President Grant, under whose specific
direction he complied with the request of
the German government TO assume The pro-
lection of the Germans in France. He felt
that he correctly Interpreted the feelings of
the Government and people of the United
States when he followed the inclination of
his own heart in doing what he did. If he
was able to send thirty thousand Germans
out of Paris before the gates of the city
were fually closed it was because of the
unbouCded liberality Of the German gov
ernment in furnishing means, and the
French government gave him every sup
port. If he was able during the last terri
BILE days of the siege to secure protection
and furnish means of support TO three thou
sand Germans, who flocked to our legation,
it was because the Government of National
Defence caused his position to be respected; /;
if he was able after the siege to continue
that protection it was because he had the
support of the French Republic, and that
ilustrious man, NJ. Theirs, who is at the
head of the government.
And perhaps" says Mr.. Washburne,
nothing could better excmpify the power
of our country and the respect paid our flag
than that the Commune of Paris, in its
career of crime and blood, released on my
demand more than a hundred Germans
who had been thrown into prison, gultless
OF any crime and subjected to frightful
persecution

TRIALS OF THE TAMMANY RING.-Oakey
Hall the Mayor of New York, is being
tried for malfcasance and corrup-
ton in office, and thus far the evidence of
Garvey, one of the Ring who has turned
States evidence, and others, prove thus
far all that has been said against the enor-
nous plunderings of the municipal treasu-
ry. They are almost incredulous. The
trial of Tweed and others will soon follow
that of Hall. Frauds are being eXhumed
against other parties for instance, on Sat
urday it was announced that indictments
had been found against Daniel ID. Cunover
and George ii. Plunkett of the present
Board of Aldermen, and Isaac Robinson
and Edward CASTILLO, of the old board, for
frauds relating to the ceding cf city proper
ty in the upper part of New York for rail-
road purposes.

A Human Being Afflicted with the
EpizOOtic.

BosToN, Oct. 26.-Very few horses are
seen in the streets. Market men, ice deal
ers, city expresses, and all the various de-
partmcnts of business in which horses are
necessary are at stand still, causing much
Inconvenience. Hand carts are in demand,
and numerous wagons laden with perisha-
BILE articles for delivery at depots and for
family use are seen in the streets drawn by
men. The only encouraging feature is that
so few cases are fatal. The first known and
authenticated case of the disease now so
prevalent among horses being communicate
ed 20 human being was reported here to-
day. Russcl White, driver of engine No.
4 while attending his horses was suddenly
taken with the disease and was conveyed
to his home. He had all the symptoms OF
the disease, coughing, running at the nose
and eyes and general feverish debility.

THEN AND race Greeley has
repeatedly said - \epubicau pay
saved the Union, eN shed slax
preserved the national q ~ Ild
reputation of the public debt and has al
ways been the promoter of wise and bene-
ficent- measures. He has often asserted
that the Democratic party uniformity
opposed these measures and strove to bring
disaster and ruin upon the nation. Never
theless, he now asks the people TO repudiate
the party of progress and reform, in favor
of party which, according to his own
showing, has been criminally wrong for a
quarter of q century.

Italy is suffering now from a much more
extensive disaster than that which laid
waste her valleys when the fires of Mt.
Vesuvius broke out, last Summer. The Po
has often overhowed its banks, devastating
the country which it usually fertilises and
sweeping away houses and vineyards.
But this inundation seems to be more seri-
Gus than any which has lately been report
ed, and the suffering which it entails will
be very great.

auspicious weather when they celebrate the

FRAUDS IN LUzERNE COUNTY We
publish in another column the address. of
The Chairman ofthe Republican Committee
of Luzerne county, in which it is alleged
that great frauds were committed in the
city of Scranton, by the Democrats. 1t
seems that Democrats repeated theLecomp-
ton frauds, and that there were over 1,2O0
illegal votes polled in the 18th ward. An
investigation is promised, and as the
frauds will be clearly proven, it will give all
the county Offices voted for this year, and
two of the Assemblymen to the Republican
candidates instead of Democrats who have
the returns. The frauds in that ward have
been as notorious as were those of New
York city, and the honest men OF both par
ties demand an investigation. This is, no
doubt, one of the great frauds committed
whichour neighbor ofthc Democrat has been
complaining Of since the October election.

Plain Language to Untruthful Bull.

And my language is cool
That for ways that are sly
In shrnanigan, Bull,
You beat all creation. l swan, your as sot as an
obstinate mule.
II ; good to call names
But concrrin' this fuss
About indirect claims
And the Albania muss.
There's Il story I've laid out to tell vdrlicrt-for
instance-as thus:
All Jim was his name
And his cattle and swine
Every now and then came
And broke over the line;
For We lived cl"sc together, though he Was Il dis
tant relation of mine.
My house was bI:,n-nrw,
And my garden best:
My Shanrucks they grew
Like p"tatnrs p"sscs-"d;
And Jim getting jealous. threw stones at my hen
when sh,. snt on her nest.
Wall went oil week.
When he grabbed up his :rx
And the cowarlly sneak
Give a couple of whacks.
Which he cove in my fence and my door and the
beasts forred i'll i'll his tracks.
Those ere horned critters ct
The corn. lettuce. and peas
And Il drove of hogs met
At the butter and cheese,
And through basement and pantry they rampagrd

And he said. with a grin
Don't he mad, for we're cousins, You know and
We ought to be cronies agin.

But you We burned up my traps
And I'm free To suppose,
If You are the person think Nou will pay for
these and for those.
Then calmly spoke James
Il am sorry, and more
will pay direct claims
For the loss You have bore.
I'll fork over the damage. / re done, here's a dollar
for breaking your door
Now, John | must wait
Like an owl on a limb.
But I'll catch. late

CARE OF THE FEET. Concerning this
subject the Scientific American very
truly says: MANY are careless in the
keeping of the feet. If they wash them
once ii week they think they are doing
well. They do not consider that the
largcst.pores are located in the bottom
of the foot. and that the most offensive
matter is discharged through the pores.
They wear stockings from the begin
ming to the end of the week without
change, which become perfectly satura-
ted with offensive matter. Ill health Is
generated by such treatment ofthe feet.
The pores are not repellants but alb
Sorbents. and this fetid matter, to
greater or less extent, is taken back in
to the system.
The feet should he washed every day
with pure water only, as well rs the
armpits. from which an offensive OdOr
is also emitted, unless daily ablution is
practiced. Stockings should not be
worn more than Il day or two at Il time.
They may he Worn one day, and then
aired and sunued and worn another day,
if necessary.
