A CONSEQUENCES OF THE HIPPozYNoNrs,
CEREBRO-sPINAL MENINGITIS ANoEa HORSES.
1t would seem that the hippOxymomis of last
fall left in many horses the seeds Of a disease
more Immediately fatal than itself. Since the
disappearance of the epidemic, horses, appar-
entity in good health have suddenly dropped
down, often while in harness, and died as Ii of
apoplexy. Veterinary surgeons being perfectly
ignorant Of either the disease or its treatment,
endeayored to conceal their ignorance behind
that refuge of doctors Of men and animals Ger
ebro-spinal meningitis The suddenness and
fatality of the attacks, and the paralysis accom-
panying it, were the features that seemed to
warrant the diagnosis, and as that disease is in
eyitably fatal, very little study has been wasted
on this new phase of it. Inquiry has invariably
shown that the horses attacked by the new dis
ease had very severe cases of the former cpl
demic, and it 10 probable that the present tr0u-
bic Is due to their having been put to work too
soon. So far, the trouble has been most noticed
in truck horses. The car companies and other
large owners Of horses will not admit loss from
it. large number Of horses have died in va
rious parts Of the city, and not few have been
killed i'm the earlier stages of the disease to cur
tail their sufferings-N. r. Express.

THR DOMESTIC LIFE OF LORD LYTToN, il is
well known, was an unhappy one. He married
family, and after several years he was separated
from her. The disunion attracted o good deal
of attention, especially as the lady saw 6t to
make the public her c0nfidant, and to write q
number Of novels, now quite forgotten, for the
purpose Of satirixing her husband and his fam
lily. She tornented him upon all possible occa-

when he was 10 address hiaconstituenfs at Hert-

NJ which we gave the news by telegraph last
month and the full narrative yesterday.
The second engagement, described to-day
was still more important. Gen. Custer OBJ
tanned sufficient reenforcements to raise MS
command to $50 men, and started in pursuit.
On the nth, formidable body of 800 or 1,oOo
Indians, under the famous chief Sitting Bull,
attacked him at the crossing of the Yellow
stone, near Big Horn River. We can imagine,
perhaps, the feelings Of the troops when this
dusky army rode forth to open battle, carry
ing breech-loading rifles of the latest i'm
proved pattern, and clad from head to foot
in the civilized garments which the National
Government serves out to its wards on the
Reservations. These were men who had been
steadily drawing supplies from the Indian
Bureau, and whom dishonest agents and
traders had equipped with arms and ammum-
ton right under the eyes of the officers OF
the Army. Nay, so lately had the treacherous
braves obtained their regular allowance at the
Reservation, .that when, after a severe and pro-
longed engagement, they were scattered and
put TO flight, the dragons found coffee and
other provisions in their abandoned camps.
We are not disposed to dwell upon the fact
that the only full story of this affair that has
reached the Atlantic States has appeared in
the columns of THE TRIBUNE, and that even
the War Department is indebted to our cor
respondents for news of the battles OF its
troops and the official reports of its generals.
Not being occupied with quarreling and yitu-
peration, we can devote ourselves to the busl-
ness of anticipating everybody else in the col
lection of important news. 1t is OF more I'M
portance to us to consider what steps the
Government intends to take in consequence of
these hostilities upon the Yellowstone. The
Sitting Bull War must not end here. Custer
has succeeded in inflicting severe loss
upon his antagonist, but he has met with
losses himself, and the balance is not so
very heavy in his favor. The expedition has
completed its surveys, and a few days after
the affair of the Big Horn it turned home
ward, leaving the Indians, of course, con-
WINGED that it had been driven out OF the
country. 1t will be necessary to send a second
army to avenge the attack upon the first
We insist that there shall be no childs play
such as marked the beginning of the Modoe
business: and perhaps, until the difficulty Is
settled, it will be just as well to cease send
ing Sitting Bulls braves their usual allowance
of clothing, coffee, and breech-loading rifles.

But he Is hardly likely to resort to that course
since it would leave HIM outside OF the Repub-
lican party, with no reasonable hope OF success
in the bolt and powerless for the future.
Unless Mr.. Butler loses his head utterly ne
will not bolt. There is, however, another
question which concerns him most intimately,
but whose decision does not rest with MIN.
THE respectability of Massachusetts, does not
nropose to be content with his defeat de IS
getting to be too frequent as candidate, ana
too brazen in his assurance. 1t is proposed
not only TO vote him down in the Convention'
but TO set the heel of Massachusetts, on MN

resolutions are to be introduced wnich VIII
define Mr.. Butler so plainly and denounce
him 30 distinctly and unequivocally that ne
cannot help-well it is yet to be seen now
much Mr.. Butler can bear with com
nosure. The vigorous articles of the past
few DAYS in The Boston Advertiser look to the
adoption of this course. The last OF these
advised the adoption of resolutions which
should be SO full-toned and penetrating as to
be heard in Washington above the chink OF

stead of Mr. Buffers being gently led one size
he is to be vigorously kicked down stairs, ana

BROOKLYN AFFAIRS.

The successor of Mr.. Sprague as City
Treasurer is to be Mr.. Andrew Cunningham.
This is already settled nomination, accept
ance. confirmation by d unanimous vote have
all been prearranged with regularity that
makes us suspicious of Ring manipulation.
We are assured that Mr.. Cunningham was
never of the Ring, and that his nomination
last year as the Democratic candidate for
Sheriff was forced on the Ring; and we have
a recollection that the Ring finally sold him
out in favor of the Republican Ring candidate,
who is now under charges of malfeasance IN
Office. We should be glad to feel that these facts
warrant the hope that, as City Treasurer. MIR.
Cunningham will not be an obstacle to the ex-
posure of the misuse of the public funds, which
when made will destroy his party and involve
in ruin the Treasury Ring that stole them. His
appointment will not at once restore con1-
dence, as would that Of some citizen who has
been identified with the fight against the Ring.
But Mr. Cunningham will have it in his
power to do this the moment he is In ofhce.
We must wait and see if he invites and aids
thorough investigation of the affairs of the
Office for the past four or six years. Until his
indifference to this public demand for lnves-
tigation is displayed we shall not believe the
fight over this important Office has been
wholly lost to the Reformers.
Mr. Ropes, President of the Brooklyn Trust
Company, is "hoist with his own petard," and
apparently very effectually. The Ring pro-
gramme az arranged was to run either Ropes
or Richardson, both of whom are Ring Re-
publicans, for Mayor, the Democratic Ring to
support them after putting up candidate
without popular strength to be defeated Mr.
Ropes made himself the popular candidate by
whitewashing' the Bridge Company some
months ago, and was at once in high favor
with McCue and Kingsley. AS step
toward the nomination for Mayor, Mr..
Ropes was made President of the
Trust Company; he came, as it were.
to the rescue of that robbed concern, and it
was given out that he was to restore its good
name and credit His ignorance of finance
was betrayed the first day or two he was in
the Office, and now it is clear that he was
only put there to conceal the populations of
the Trust Company, as before he had been
put on committee to protect the Bridge Di-
rectors from investigation and exposure. The
consequence is that Mr.. Ropes is counted out
of the contest for Mayor, and the fight is mar
rowed down to Richardson and the peoples
candidate, yet to be discovered.
