BOSTON, Oct. 20, 1872.
The equine epidemic in Boston is beginning to
pass away. Most OF the express companies and
truckmen have brought many OF their horses up to
such stage of convalescence as to use them por-
ton Of the time, and commerce and the transfer OF
the necessities OF life have been greatly facilitated
in consequence The Metropolitan is the only horse
railroad company tnat has yet attempted to do
business since the total suspension, and even only
one-eighth Of their usual number OF cars are out.
The South and East Boston, Cambridge, Charles
town, Highland and other out-0f-town lines
are still idle, and also the Washington street and
Charlcstown line OF coaches. Just about enough
hacks to supply funerals and do transfer between
the hotels and depots are to be obtained at extra
VACANT prices. Oxen, mules and now and then
vehicles drawn by men are not strange scenes upon
the street. Numerous dealers in furniture teas
and musical instruments have taken advantage OF
the epidemic excitement to haul empty cases
through the streets preceded by band Of music;
1t will probably be abandoned after to-day.

In consequence OF the action taken by the Board
Of Aldermen on Monday permitting "dummyn en-
gnes to run on the street tracks for period OF
thirty days HERALD reporter was yesterday as
signed the duty OF finding out how far such
course would be practicable The first place visited
was the railway depot at Jersey City, where 1t
seemed probable that "dummiesr would be en-

the acting manager, however, stated that only

At the depot Of this principal line the condition
of AFFAIRS Is very bad. Mr.. Birdsal the Assistant
superintendent Of Horses, said that he did not
believe there was horse in the stable that was
not affected by the plague. The condition OF affairs
was no worse than the day before. He found that,
In fact the horses took to their feed better than on
the day before. The company was no: working
now for money, but for the accommodation OF
the public. This stood to reason, as it
was certainly q matter OF greater gain
to rest the horses than to run as
they were doing now. II Mr.. Bergh would de.
cidedly order the line to stop he felt confident the
officers Of the road would be glad, only they did not
wish to take so important q step upon their own

said, that 1t was cruel to drive the sick horses.

the beginning OF other books from the same

has charged the President, by implication,
with being corrupt; and In go doing he has
forfeited all claim to be, treated with ordinary
