Pursuing the Ring.

COLUMBIA, Wlys26.

COLUMBIA 1uif'EQ.
TIE case of John NJ. Mackay VS. the
president and directors OF the Blue Ridge
Railroad Company, came up to day be
fore Judge Melton upon preliminary,Ino-
tion for an injunction andthe appointment
Of a temporary receiver. Messrs. McMas-
ter and Lecount, City Attorney. D. T. Cor
bin and Judge A. G. Magrath appeared
for the plaintiffs, and Messrs. Melton and
Clark for the defendants.
After little preliminary sparring be-
tween the counsel, on motion Of the defen-
dants the case was<further postponed un-
til Friday next. Mr.. Corbin appeared for
the first time before the court in behalf Of
the City of Charleston. and the city is
now formally entered as party plainaff
to the case This puts a much more
promising and encouraging aspect upon
matters, for there is now reasonable as
surance that the case will be fully prose
cuted and the frauds completely unearth-
ed. So long as only private and single
individual was the plaintiff, there was E
possibility Of his minor interests being
ouieted at any time by the Ring, and that
thus the case might fall through. The
Ciw of Charleston. however, with hel
81, 100000 of stock, is not such an easy
customer to deal with, and the plaintiffs
are confident of being fully able to sustain
in evidence all their allegations of fraud
Mr.. Corbin to-day asked and obtained
leave to further. amend the. complaint, a:
there were some other and heavy. acts, Q
rascalitv which he wishes TO. disclose HI
stated that, whereas there ought to b'

Terrible Mortality Among Herds of
Texas Cattle. -

A correspondent, who has enjoyed the
excellent facilities of knowing whereof he
writes. gives the following information to
he Lie Stock Reporter; relative to the
present condition 81 the cattle interest in
and Southern Kansas fF- =
Good Judges. who have had the best OPT
portunities for observation, estimate that
fully one-third Of the Texan cattle which
went into winter quart"rs in Kansas, have
already been lost W st"ayipg away OF by
death. and til..t al least ONT, half the re-
.nainder will de before the cattle get upon
the new grass While This soulbre view
Of the matter is doubtless somewhat ex-
aggerated, I thinl: that Tally 25 per cent.
of these cattle are already dead, to say
nothing. of those by the dispersion Of
h ards, and unless the remainder of the
winter proves remarkably mild, another
25 per. cent, will sssuredly not reach the
butchers block. -,
Several cases have combined to produce
this disastrous state of affairs in .busi-
ness which has hitherto been most profta-
BILE. As l wrote YOU last summer, most
of these cattle were very thin when they
arrived in Kaasas, and did not put on
flesh as they did in previous seasons; ow-
ing, doubtless, to the overabundant rains,
which rendered the grass washy. .Moge-
over, the cattle were often crowded upon
poor range near the railway stations, in
the vain hope Of effecting sales. These
cattle were thus crowded and moved from
place to place, without in any material
way improving their condition, until they
were overtaken BY early and severe sleet
and snow storms Of autumn.
Many of the owners, hoping against
probability to make sales of their. cattle,
deferred making arrangements for win
iter.nc them until the storms were fairly
upon them .ehen they rushed them into
the hands OF amy parties who had n few
tons OF prairie hay, which 70 many cases
was put up after the frost had destroy
led all the nutritive value OF the grass.
Hence, we find the cattle dying in such
,na1li,ers, i'll some cases reaching, at this
early day, as nigh as 50 per cent of the
number going into winter quarters.
