A terrible disease has broken ont in
parts of the South among the hogs. 1t
has but little resemblance to hog cholera
and is much more fatal, never failing TO
kill in few hours, and the hogs actual
ly become very offensive before death.
Its first symptoms is soreness in the
nose, followed frequently by bleeding.
Then the tongue commences to swell,
protrudes from the mouth and turns
black, and the hog dies frequently in an
hour or less time after being attacked.
No remedy has been discovered that af-
fects it in the least.

II Mr.. Mcpherson, the Clerk of the
House, has prepared. as far as be is
able at this time, the rosteIof the next
House of Representatives. The full
membership Will be 292. The Demo-
Gratis CT opposition must have, therefore
80 votes to break the two-thirds majori-
~ of the Republicans. Thus far the
Democrats have SO votes, and New
Hampshire and Connecticut have yet to
elect their members. The relative
strength here given does not also include
the members from Florida. Louisiana
or West Virginia, these being subject to
future decision. There is prospec
that five or at most six more Democrats
may be added, making in all not more
than 95. or three less than a third Of the
membership.

A WRECK.-The last news from the
J. 3. Libby is, that she Will probably
be total wreck, from which nothing
can be saved but her engines and fix
ures. The loss falls chiefly upon Hon
A. A. Denny, her principal owner. The
boat has been unfortunate from its
launch, and constant loss to its own
ers, and its final loss, though greatly to
be regretted, may prove blessing in

One of :he saddest instances of wom-
ans taithlessness with which we have
met was that Of the wife Of man in
Syracuse. 1t seems that the couple had
arranged that for six months the hus-
band was to get up i'll the morning and
make the kitchen fire, and that the wife
was to perform tie task for the succeed
ing six months. The mans half year
expired on the I'd, and the morning of
;he Sd the woman suddenly died. He
is nearly heart-broken over his affiic-
ton. He says if he could only have
foreseen this bereavement he would have
shufiied her out of bed at daylight every
morning since January. And to think
that she lay there snoozing all that
time in comfort, when she wasn't going
TO take her turn, makes him feel as il
he would either have to wrap about six
teen yards OF Grape around his Sunday
hat, or burst. And yet there are people
who say that these women haven't their
rights forsooth!

WEATHER ArTHE EAsr-To those who
complain of our rains we commend the
following, by way of comparison. 1t is
from dispatch dated New York, Dec.
72:
Last night the streets were. deserted
from an early hour in the evening. Bus
mess is mostly suspended. No person
yentured out except from abs olute ne
cessity. Thousands slept down town at
the hotels or in their offices owing to in
ability to reach their homes.
In the upper parts of the city classes
dependant upon their days earnings
for the following nights shelter suffered
immensely. Thousands wandered about
the streets not knowing where to go.
Some of the principal lines of street
cars are running to-day with double
teams, heavily loaded. A few stages
continue running on the great thorough
fares, but it is only at rare intervals tina:
carts or other vehicles are seen.
The street cleaning bureau yesterday
ordered force of laborers to work to-
day cleaning the cross-walks and ap-
proaches to the ferries, and in general
sh0Teling snow. Special attention will
be given to cleaning Broadway, OIL which
the snow lays a foot deep on the level.
The entire cost of cleaning this street
for Il distance of seventy blocks will
reach the sum of S20, 600.

CANADA.-Arrangements have been
completed for the organization of a COM
pany to build the Canadian Pacific Rail
road, authorized under the act of the
last session of Parliament. Negotiations
have resulted in an agreement to raise
the necessary capital among the people
of Canada, and to submit to such restric-
tions as will prevent the danger appre-
hended-that tn control of the road
and lands would fall into the hands Of
foreigners interested in rival project.

CAMP SOUTH OF TULE LAKE.
May 10th, 1873
Dear H.: Yours of May "a has been received
You doubtless have heard all about the recent
lights in the papers, as they seem full of II. I
went out week since with three companies to
try and find the remains of Lieut.. Cranston and
the missing soldiers, and to bring them in; also
the bodies of the seven whom we buried under
sage brush. We found the Indians had stripped
and mutilated the bodies and then set fire to the
sage brush, burning the bodies to a crsp. We
found also the bodies of the missing stripped
and scalped, and so terribly swollen and de-
composed that it was impossible to move them:
so all we could do was 20 hollow out graves for
them in the lava and leave them. There have
been several skirmishes since the disastrous
tight, in which we lost several men and had
quite a number wounded. Do not know where
the Indians are now; they appear TO have
changed their place. Nearly all the troops
have gone out after the Indians-Col. Mason on
his side, and three troops of cavalry from here
This leaves me in command OF the camp here
with companies T. and G., 10th infantry, and a
lot OF teamsters. Generals Gillem, Davis and
Hardee are here, and the prospect is that we
shall move our camp across the lake to penin-
suia. They are getting ready to send the
wounded i'm boats. There are plenty of rattle
makes, scorpions ard Lizards here, and they
get to be SO familiar that they come INTO our
huts, and we are obliged to shake our blankets
before retiring.
