"SPAN1sH FEVER has again made
its appearance in Barton county, Mis-
souri,, and is killing great many cat
tie. The disease is supposed to have
been impaired by drove of Texas cat
tie driven through the county short
time ago. Native cattle are inoculated
with this disease In similar manner
that the human race is inoculated with
smallpox. 1t has been pretty definitely
ascertained that the disease is i'm
parted by matter that exudes from
the hoofs of the foot-sore and travel
worn Texas cattle. This matter is left
upon the grasses where the native cattle
Craze; they are inoculated with the dis
ease, that is almost universally fatal,
and for which no cure has ever been
found. There is a preventative, how
ever. Where the disease is impaired a
close observation will develop the fact
that there are one or more dropping
cattle which stagger around in mel
ancholy manner and refuse to eat. A
close examination will prove that this
animal is discharging a very offensive
matter from the frogs of the hoofs.
This can be cured (says the Sedalia
Democrat) by roping and throwing the
animal and pouring boiling hot grease
on the parts afflicted.

THE late storm, according to Prof.
Mansill, of Illinois, was caused by
Mercury being in a longitudinal line
with Jupiter. His statement of the
disturbing positions of the planets,
for September, furnishes the following
facts: SIN this month there are five
longitudinal lines of the planets, be.
sides an inferior conjunction of Mer-
curry with the sun, and two oppositions.
There is also an eclipse of the sun on
the 7th. These seem to be principally
in two groups; first running from the
I'd to the 18th, and the second occupy
ing from the 22d to the 18th. There is
more planetary phenomena in this
month than any other month in 1877.
Therefore, we may expect considerable
meteoric disturbance in the first and
latter part of Septembe.
