The expression "dying like sheep in the rot"
has passed into proverb, but few who use it
are aware Of the nature and cause Of this fear
full disease. Il is due to the presence in the
liver Of the animals affected Of the distoma
hepaticum, or fuke worm. Il is taken into
the stomach Of sheep, cattle, &c. with their
food and drink, and after time bores Its way
into the liver, where it becomes encysted and
remains for weeks or months, until perfectly
developed. It then makes its way into the
HveT-duct, passes into the intestines, and is
thence expelled. Its eggs are deposited upon
the moist leaves Of grasses and weeds, and by
the dispensing agency of wind, rain, feet OF
animals, &c, may ultimately find their way
into ponds, bitches and streams. The liver OF
q sheep may contain several dozen worms, and
each animal will contain many Thousand min
ute eggs. In single year, over two millions
of sheep have been destroyed in England alone
by this parasite, ''nOt including the immense
number that are killed and sent 20 market to
prevent a total loss to the pockets Of the
owners" Prof. Percy assures US that the
same state of affairs exists il this country, but
''as we have virtually no system Of meat In
spection, it is impossible 70 ascertain the effect
produced by this immense amount of diseased
meat"

A JUDICIAL BOMBSHELL.

The decision Of the Supreme Court OF the
United States, q synopsis OF which appeared
in the kilograms Of the Associated Press yes
terday, in the case of jackson ct al, against
the Vicksburg, Shreveport and Texas Railroad
Company, while not unexpected by those at
all familiar with the case, fell like bomb
shell in the midst of the ring, which has for
so long time frau1ulently enjoyed the rights
and privileges belonging to the original cor
poration. .=..
The history OF this railroad swindle is so
we'll understood by our people that an elabor-
ate statement Of all its details is unnecessary.
In brief the testimony taken in the case
showed conclusively that there was a con-
spiracy on the part Of Ray, Ludeling and
others to defraud the original bondholders,
who lived at distance from Monroe, by a
sudden and summary proceeding to which
they were not parties, and of which they had
no notice. 1t showed a deliberate pur-
pose on the part Of the persons engaged
in the conspiracy to keep the parties in inter-
est in ignorance of the measures taken to
despoil them, that at least two of the lawyers
who were in the conspiracy, held bonds be-
longing to distant parties and yet failed to
communicate to their clients the fact that a
suit had been instituted, or that they were
parties in interest; that the sale of the road
and its franchises was conducted so as to pre-
vent the properly from bringing its value;
that the Board Of Directors instead of endea.
To 1nfa nf {hn
bondholders were accom- nodating and acqui-
escing parties to the fraud; that one of the
directors was bought off from interposing
objections to the sale, and that the price
brought by the property $50, 00O) was entire
ly inadeqate.
In the face of these facts, Judge Woods
who seems to have faculty for making mis-
takes in his decisions, his ruling in the Grant
parish case having been recently set aside by
Justice Bradley-rendered decision in favor
of the conspirators and against the parties
who had the chief interest in the road.
To the new company, which was formed by
Ray, Ludeling Gordon, Horne and others,
and which was incorporated by act of the
Legislature, passed some 20 months ago, after
the suit had been entered in the United States
Circuit Court, Kellogg last year issued bonds
to the amount Of $576, 600, which bonds
we're among the first of the illegal and fraudu-
lent securities funded by the immaculate
Board Of which Kellogg, Antoine, Lowell and
Clinton are members, and were made men,
bers expressly for the contamination Of such
swindles as this
We hold that the Funding Board is itself
fraud, and that the act creating it is the ema-
nation Of a fraudulent body; that the bonds it
paper they are printed upon, and will be re-
pudiated by the people.

There is a wealthy English traveller in Chicago,
according to the papers, who is already too far
away from home, although he is going to Color
ado with cords Of money to buy land. The pro-
fessional thieves found him, and introduced him
first to the old lottery dodge, and afterwards to
bunko. For his experience in the latter he paid
his instructors $4,000, and just then began to
have slight suspicion that he was being feeced
1t was the biggest bunko trick ever taken, and
almost raises the transaction to the sphere of
responsibility. He quit the game a poorer, if
not a wiser man, and will not ''squeal" because
Of his high connections. Squealing is plebean
To be swindled grandly is aristocratic. $4,000
at a swoop, and noimpertinent inquiries into the
means, is a business worth following, and this
branch OF trade appears to be lively IN Chicago.

A TERRIBLE TO.DO.
Discovery that the Archbishop of Canterbury has
Never been Properly Baptized.

-'e'eA WE" TIVpeTiy bAptIZeO.
From the N. 7. World Correspondent
LONDON, Nov. 5.-Ihe controversy about the
baptism and the confirmation of the Archbishop
OF Canterbury still continues in the church Jour
na,s. The facts appear to be these. DIR. TAFT
was born in Scotland of Presbyterian parents.
who cared little about baptism. When he was
an infant he was at one time very i'll, and was
supposed to be dying, and he says that at this
time his rurse, an old Scotch woman, baptized
In the eye OF the Roman Catholic Church, il it
were done with the proper intention and with
the essential words. But no evidence exists of
these facts and no other baptism was ever ad-
ministered TO the child, who is now Archbishop
OF Canterbury. When he grew up to be young
man he became an Episcopalian. and when he
was student at Ballol, Oxford, he was confirm
ed by Bishop Bagot
After the confirmation the Bishop learned that
Mr.. TAFT had never been baptized save in the
way just described. The Bishop sent for him in
great distress. 'Tait," SAID he, confirmation
cannot duly be given to any one who has not
been validly chrstened. | have confirmed You
In ignorance so and get baptized for security's
sake, and then come to me again for confrma-
ton" Mr.. lait declined to do anything of the
kind. and thus the case stands. If he was not
validity baptized his confirmation was void, and
al subsequent sacrements administered to him
and by him are void also. He has orda, ned
about three hundred priests, but if he himself
has never been vady ordained their ordinations
are void The Bishop IF Winchester has been
asked to take some steps in the matter, but he
has declined to do this, although admitting that
the subjec. may be If interest to churchmen.

DRIPPINGS FROM THE COURT HOUSE
EAVES.

The wit and humor of the bench has passed
into proverb. The sparkling repartee, the
caustic response and the mild insinuation so
frequently INDUCED in by judges, has been
the theme Of more than one writer. Although
this city had its quota of judicial wits in times
gone by, no bright luminary burst its glory
upon the bar for some years past, until Barney
Lynch, ':the kind of man I am" took his
seat in the Fourth District Court, when there
was complete restoration of the age of
humor.
His modesty frequently browns what other
wise would keep the courtroom in roar, but
at times he let's slip bon mot and it is eagerly
devoured by the bar. A few days ago one Of
these occasions happened and it deserves
mention.
There was case up for trial in which the
counsel on either side were considered very
sly jokers. The argument waxed strong one
telling blow followed another until both sides
wandered somewhat beyond the realms of
evidence, and roved through the field Of
imagery. The Judge, that's Barney, waxed
wroth, and bringing down his judicial dexter
hand commanded silence.
In that clear, calm voice for which his honor
is noted, he anxiously inquired: ''Mr.-, do
you thank this Court has got no brains 2"
The attorney was evidently affected, but he
quickly responded, "Judge, don't you think
you had better not press that question. had
rather be excused from answering" The
Judge didn't press it.
