Hon Lewis F. Allen, Buffalo, N. Y, edi-
ton. of the American Short-Horn herd book,
announces that the time for receiving COW
pedigrees for record in the fifteenth volume
is exteBded to December lst, 1873. The
American herd book is the standard book
Of reference among breeders of Short.Horn
cattle. The pedigree of every animal should
be kept recorded therein. Very 6ne herds
Of'cattle. of the purity of which there was
no doubt, have been sold as grades at beef
prices, because Of the neglect to record their
Pedigrees until they could not be traced.
An outlay of fifty dollars or less in term
of years, in recording fees would have been
good for many thousand dollars on the day
OF sale. " .. 7t1

1t is often said that the wonderful success
of Thomas Bates, the great bree der OfShort-
Horns, founder Of the Duchess family, was
largely due to the unrelenting wedding out

rect. No family of animals could endure
the system which has been practiced with
them for SO many generations unless in build.

had been eliminated. The practice at the
present day is just the reverse of that of
Thomas Bates in this respect.

TIE SEIZED ToBAcco-VIcroRY FOR THE
SHIPpERs.- Police-Justice White yesterday
morning, 10 the case of John L. Weatherford
suing for the condemnation Of 302 casks OF
stemmad tobacco seized on board the British
bark Tarpeian for some supposed violation
Of the inspection laws, rendered his iudg-
ment in favor of the defendants-the ship
pers of the tobacco. He said that he
had had no time to write out his
opinion, but having been requested to do
80 by many persons he designed com.
plying at an early day. The conclusion
reached by the Police Justice is the same
that seized the public mind as soon as the
evidence and arguments were heard.
!. There. is no appeal for Mr. Weatherford;
II, indeed, there is any wish for an appeal.
The vessel, which bad been in custody of
the officers Of the law siuce last Friday, was
released Immediately after the rendering Of
the decision. and having obtained her clear
aoce yesterday afternoon sailed for Liver
pool amid the jubilations OF large number
of gentlemen who assembled to see her off.
Many tobacco dealers while regretting the
detention of the Tarpcan, and the loss to the
shippers incurred, and the probable damage
done this port by The summary seizure of
the tobacco, yet congratulate themselves that
this question Of the rtinspection Of strips has
been definitely settled, and express the hope
that the Legislature will shortly after assem-
bling either repeal the inspection laws alto

PHILADELPHIA. July 28.-The eX Priest
Gerdemann ectured tonight to an audience
numbering fully 1000 people on "Ten
Years in the Priesthood" All precautions
were taken by the authorities In anticipation
Of trouble by the Catholics of the city.
The lecture was a protest against the man
ner in which, the lecturer said, the priests
and bishops controlled the poor people Of
their flock. He explained his course In leav-
ing the priesthood, and said he thought Of
the matter for three years before he took the
step.
The Irish Protestants were present in
force, but everything passed of quietly.

Convention met to-day, large number Of
delegates being In attendance. John G. Pitts
burg was nominated for Governor. The
ticket nominated is regarded as q victory Of
the regular or businessmen over the Davis
faction: Every candidste dominated was a
strong friend OF Ramsey during the sena-
torial contest last winter.
Resolutions were adopted expressing tho
belief that the choice OF the judges should not
be a party matter, and recommending the re-
turn of the present incumbents.
The resolutions reStfirm the principles Of
the Republican party, favor that fioancial
policy which keeps in view return to sDe-
cie.payments, hold to tariff strictly for
revenue, and would regard third tern
dangerous innovation.
