most important work; it will give Portland,

market Maine will show a progress which
will astonish those who have never inquired

SPEAKER BLAINE IN THE WEST.

The Cincinnati, St. Louis and Chicago
papers come to us filled with reports of
the speeches made in those cities by Speak
er Blaine. Reports in e1tenso have been
everywhere made Of his speeches. The
st. Louis Democrat thus editorially re-
fers to his effort in that city.
''Mr. Blaine is young, vigorous and intel.
lectual man, and has reached a position sci
dom attained in this conntry, even by the
most fortunate ofpublic men. He is, perhaps,
to-day the most prominent Republican Of his
age in the United States. His manner is at
tractive, his delivery rapid and forcitle, and
his matter convincing. Take him, all in all
there are few public men in this country who
have more power in dealing with an audi.
ence."

Blaine said, has an editorial a column in

speech. The article concludes thus:

TIE EUROPEAN HAIR VESTS.

The latest reliable advices from Europe
place the deficiency of the wheat crop at TWEEN
ty per cent. OF the usual yield, and state that
the wheat requirements of the United King
dom, for the harvest year ending with next
August, will be about S5,000,000 bushels.
Other information also shows that the United
Kingdom is the only country in which there
is large deficiency in the principal food
crops, and that as most other countries have
a good surplus all fears of famine. or even
extreme prices, are groundless. The def
cheney of the potato crop ensures good mar
ket for the heavy surplus of corn in the Uni
ted States.

TIE HORSE DISEASE IN TIE DO

Some days ago the telegraph made reference
to the general prevalence OF the horse disease

as to impede travel and transportation, and

the same epidemic prevails in Montreal and

may be useful;
'The disease appears to DE a catarrhal fe-
ver Of an epizootic nature, the result of some
atmospheric influence, as is shown by it's sud-
den appearance over large extent of coun-
try, attacking all kinds of horses, old and
young, in good condition or poor. The pre-
monitory symptoms are dullness, a staring
coat, watery discharge from the nose, speed
lily followed by severe hacking cough; the
pulse is quickened and the mouth hot the ma
sal membranes are affected and the ears
and legs are unnaturally cold the discharge
from the nose increases and becomes of
greenish-yellow color, the breathing is in
creased, and in some cases, labored and Sc

prove great loss and annoyance to the
community generally, We DO not think 1t be
Of fatal character where ordinary care and
rational treatment are adopted. In several
instances the attack has been severe, but
generally increased by overwork, or some
other facilitating influence. AS the disease
will run certain course, affected animals
should be carefully used, and allowed plenty
of pure air. with a liberal diet of nourishine

be well aired and and Thoroughly ventilated
