CHARACTER AND ORIGIN OF DISEASE.
The disease has been but little noticed here, and
DR.. McEachran, of the Veterinary College, thinks
there can be no difficulty about the passage of Cana
dian CATTLE while those fromthc United States will be
excluded He states the malady to be really plcuro
pneumonia, which has heretofore been well known
in some parts of the States and which had received
special notice in report of warning from the federal
Commissioner Of Agriculture at Washington. The
prevailing opinion here is that the violent snow
storm of tho 18th of January had much to do with
the IL blocked the roads 80 that cattle
caught in positions on the railway lines at which
they could not be properly cared for. II Is thought
that the placing of cattle on board of outgoing vessels
while they were still chilled by the long Journey
overland caused the stringent taken by
the British government.
Is III FAVOR TO CANADA?
But there IL another Interpretation put upon tho
action of the British government by some and this
is that their action has for its aim the exclusion OF
American cattle. to the prcferment OF Canadian
cargoes: that II is part of the Domnon's present
poiicy Of protection The fact that an order in
Council has been passed by the Ottawa government
prohibiting the importation OF cattle from the United
States for three months from the lat of February IL
followed by the intelligence from the capital that
.commu nication has been had with the English gov
crnmcnt the subject so as to prevent any inter-
ference with shipments of cattle from Canadian
ports Thus can the inference be readily drawn that
Canadian cattle are in little danger DR.. McEachran
was in Ottawa on Friday in connection with the
governments action. and il is learned that most rigid
measures will be taken to enforce the above order iu
Council.

THsxoMIsArIoS Of Foster by the Re-
publicans for Governor Of Ohio, is said
to be triumph in favor Of the admin
istrs alton Of President Hayes, and against
Grant for third term. As Sherman
was in favor Of Foster the nomination
is claimed as a victory in favor of the
Secretary for President. The Presi-
dents desire that Foster should receive
tho nomination, has not only been
gratifed, but he has the pleasure Of
knowing that his own course has been
sustained also, especially since he has
shown such remarkable frmness in We
toing the political legislation intended
for no OF her purpose than to pave the way
for the election of a Democratic Presi-
dent in 1880. It is hard to see how
the Republicans could have done bet
ter than to nominate Foster. He is
able, honest and popular, and what.
ever essentials he may lack in any
res spect are more than met In the candi,

Hickenlooper, brave and successful

the nominations have been received
looks favorable for the success of the

THE TnIRTIETH day of May has got to
be one on which the patriotic emotions
of the loyal people of the nation should
be allowed to predominate. While the
duty of decorating the soldiers graves
with the earliest and brightest flowers
of Spring has its sadness, it quickens
into activity the loyal feelings, when it
is reflected that those who sleep be-
meath the floral tributes to their mem
ory, offered up their lives to uphold
the liberties Of our country. They died
Ike heroes brave and true to preserve
to generations yet unborn the liberties
for which our fathers offered up their
lives in a seven years war for indepen-
dence. 1t is right and proper that to-
day the loyal millions should visit the
cemeteries and not only lay a wreath
upon the mound which covers the re
mains of hero, but drop a tear to
his memory. Every patriots grave
should be sacred to day, and we hope
that flowers and flags may mark the
grave of the humblest that offered W
his life in defense of his country.

THERE is SAID to be a pretended
movement en- foot in Mississippi by the
rebel Democracy there to prevent bull.
dozing, but we very much doubt the
sincerity Of such movement. Whether
it is so or not will be shown by the vote
on election day. If buildozing is stop
ped Mississippi will give 40, 900 Repub-
lican majority, and viii send an al
most solid Republican delegation to
Congress. Chalmers, in place of being
in Congress trying to get up another
rebellion on account of the negro exc.
dus, would be left at home, and no
such men as Gully. the murderer,
would be elected to the Office of Sheriff
simply because he led in the murder
of Republican Judge and two Of his
children. The chances are that this
movement to prevent bulldozing, if
such movement is really being made,
will be forgotten before election day
cones around.

Veto Na0her 3.

President Hayes sent in his veto Of
the civil and judicial bill yesterday.
h does not waste words but contents
himself with an allusion to the criti-
cism upon the practice of thus attempt
ing to coerce a coordinate branch OF
the Government into a surrender OF Its
oonvictons, and Touching incidentally
the Psint presented in his first veto
with reference to the obligation resting
on Congress to provide the necessary
appropriations, he proceeds with much
concisensss and force to set forth the
case against the measure sanctioned by
the majority in Congress.
The freshest point is the exposure OF
the insinoerity and logical weakness of
tn. Democratic position in regard to the
nsressional elections. In referring
to the message, the New York 'Tri-
buRe says, that the brief and clear state
ment of the Presidents reasons for
holding the Election law constitutional
will stsgger those who haze been in the
habit Of loosely asserting, at every par.
tisan emergency, that the law was
"plainly unwarranted by the Constitu-
tion," and it is quite enough to reply,
as the President does, that enany pros.
ecutions, trials and convictions have
been had under it, and yet no lawyer
of repute enough to get 6rief has
ever dared to stake the csse of his
client upon a claim that the law was
invalid.
Nor has any Judge OF any United
States Court questioned its validity in
any reported ease. The usefulness Of
the law in preventing frauds is simply
shown by the two reports in reference
to elections in this city. At one elec-
ton, before the law was passed, com
mittee Of Congress reported that LOS
votes were cast for every 100 persons
actually qualified to vote, and for
every lightweight persons who actually
voted. As the Message says, at was
plain that if these frauds could be con-
tinued and repeated with impunity,
free government was impossible -
The President makes very plain the
intention of the Confederate Brigadiers
to denationalize the United States to
strip the Government of all power save
such as it may exercise through or by
sutferance of State authorities and to
cripple and emasculate statute which
Congress does not venture wholly to re-
peal. 1t does not seem to him that the
shadow of power, without the sub
stance, should be all that is left TO the
United States. 1t does not seem to him
that those who failed to destroy the
Union by force should be left free to
destroy it by fraud. In that opinion a
solid North will sustain the President.
