The horse disease is still on the increase In
Cincinnati. The cars on three lines have been
taken OF. Other lines are running but with re-
duced forces. Hack horses are mainly with
drawn. Transfer and beer wagons are drawn
by oxen. The tire department Is organizing into
companies OF nifty TO one hundred each TO draw
engines in the event OF a fire. Freight is sccu-
mulatng at the river and railroad depots and
trade generally mas been interrupted. 1t is prob.
able that work has been resumed too soon with
the recently sick horses in Philadelphia, as num-
beers are now dying. The unusual Spectacle of
three dead herses piled on a wagon was in the
streets yesterday. All the freight depots on the
line OF the Hudson river railroad are filled with
freight, which cannot be drawn away in conse
guence OF the scarcity OF horses. The disease in
Poughkeepsie and adjoining counties is wide
spread, and many horses are dying. The disease
is spreading rapidly at Scranton, Pa. III has
also reached Salt Lake city, and many horses
are sick. The disease is Spreading rapidly at
Louisville. Fifty horses belonging to the Trans
fer Company were attacked yesterday. MANY

NEW YORK, Nov. l3.-Geueral Thaler os
the New York fire department, concludes from
the inspection OF the burnt district of Boston,
Ihst the great nre was in consequence OF the
delay OF the hremen in reaching the scene: the
narrowness Of the streets, which made Ii impos-
slole TO work efficiently; and the great heat
IN open spaces prevented the hremen
agrees with the chief engineer OF the Boston Ore
department that the destruction of buildings by
gunpowder tends TO the spreadof fire more than
~ would otherwise. The people of this city are
assured that there is no likelihood of a similsT
calamity Detailing them, because of an abund.
ant supply OF water, and the superior Organize
non OF the fire department. Two new reservoirs
are buliding, TO contain an area of 900 acres of
water, in addition 70 the present available
