THE AMERICAN" CATTLE DISEASE

The order prohibiting the importation OF American
cattle into England has created CONSERVATION among
the cattle exporting firms of this city. They have
issued tclcgaphc instructions to all their agents to
at stop buying aud have given orders TO dispose
of the stock on hand. The cattle which
were seized part of a cargo Of 2s5 head
shipped from Portland by the Dominion steamer onta-
RIO by Mcssrs. Crawford Co.. of this city, and
prsed both American and Canadian beasts. During
the voyage ninety head were lost overheard and
plcuro- pneumonia broke out among the remainder.
but whether they were American or Canadian cattle
which were affected is not known. II is also doubt
f whether the prohibition order affects the Canadian
trade, but this will be known in few days, when

of Alabama, will arrive at Liverpool. Veterinary
authorities state positively that peuro-pneumonia

PROFESSOR LOCKYER'S THEORY.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 81, 1879

WASHINGTON, Jan. 81, 1879.
Professor Simon Newcomb. of the Naval Obscrvs-
tory is among the many scientific men Of this coun-
try whose attention has been suddenly challenged
by the recent revelations of he spcctroscope. from
which Professor j. Norman Lockyer. the dstin-
gushed English astronomer. claims TO have obtained
evidence that the bright lines of the solar chromo-
sphere are chiefly due the not yet isolated bases Of
fourteen so-called elements. and that the solar
phenomena in their totality are in all proba-
bility, due dissertation at tho phostospheric
level and association at higher levels. Professor
Ncwcomb is slow to accept speculation but he could
see nothing inrinsically improbable in Professor
Iockyer's view. II could not be accepted as yet
without more complete discussion of the evidence
which 1T rests and further researches by other
spcctroscopists. without this further evidence IL
must be casscd with that great collection of heorio
which may be true, but which no one has succeedes
in proving. final judgment must be the work q
chemists rather than OF astronomers.

African Explorations

The extraordinary interest taken
in African travel and explorations,
by the entire reading world, IS phe-
nOmenal. That quarter of the globe
has not only been the theatre of
some OF the grandest achievements
and adventures in the annals of hu>
man travel, but has been the subs
ject of an mfinitude of books. But
the people do not tire of reading of
this wonderful continent, aud hence
the supply of lii erature is adequate
20 the want. The latest cOntribu>
ton to historic literature on this
subject, is the new book by Hon. J.
Il. Headley, giving in graphic and
thrilling detail the achievements of
Henry NJ. Stanley-the greatest,
most successful and daring explO-
rpr of this or any other time. Mr..
Headley's experience, scholarship
and literary ability well fit him for
this task, and Stanley is fortunate
will be remembered as the author
of those fascinating works of nearly
IL generation ago:-Ndpoieon and
His Mdrshais and Washington and
His Generals. They created mark
ell sensation at the time, and have
since held their place IN literature
az standards Of entertaining biog>
raphy and descriptive writing. They
are guarantees of the value and
great interest of the new work,
which will also be rendered doubly
and salable by nearly

these charges were revived by

Young shot Kim in the breast. MIR.
Kalloch turned to retreat within
doors, when DeYOung shot him in
the back.
A crowd Immediately seized the
carriage in which DrYOung was,

He was dreadfully kicked and bruis

killed on the spot had not an un.

DeYouDg safe in Jail, and had made
arrangements to hurry him to Fort

came known to the people. AT
present the spirit of the multitude
is aroused to prevent any removal
of DeYoung fIOm Jail. There was
never "a time when San francisco

Numberless reports are afloat as

adopted, and request made that
lo.h the CITIZEN and Mail publish

Mr.. s.. w. Trotter rendered his
withdrawal as a candidate for the
Legislature which after careful con-
cider alton the Committee declined
to acc. pt and returned to him find-
ing no just ground for such with>
drawaI on his part or acceptance
thereof on theirs.
On motion the chairman was in
ST. ucted to Issue in behalf of the
Committee an address to the Dem>
ocracy of Madison county urging
upon them speedy and active prep
xration for the approaching cam
psign, to organize Democratic clubs
throu. hont the county, and to
spare ND legitimate means to secure
the election Of both the Legislative
and county ticket as made by the
.csnyeatiou of July 7th.
On motion the convention adj
journed to meet at the call of the
chairman. r. b. Campbell, Chm
Geo. Handy. Secretary.
In view of the fact that great
deal has been said about compTo>
missing and harmoMzing with the
few gentlemen who have seen prop
er Z" tear away fIOm the Democratic
l,HIiy, your committee have this day
met, and after dispassioDate re-
view, We are eatisfed that it is
.pcitber polite, dignified or wise in
sls to undo any thing (even presum-
jrg that We had the power) done
by tIiepasty Ia it's convention held
in this city on the 7th day Of July
Iasf.
We deeply deplore the fact that
. few influential gentlemen, should
rther from pique, passion, disap-
pointment or seldshness, attempt to |
divide the Democratic party i'm this
c-,u.ty, by placing an independent
ticket I'D the field. We have amply

county convention to nominate in
telligent white men. it may have
been folly that uIlettered coloied
men were not nominated. 1t is not
for us to judge.
Colored men had right to sub
nit their claims to the convention
and they did SO One made "a speech
and was respectfully listened TO and
loudly applauded. Their rights
were respected, bat they as candi-
dates were fairly defeated.
We cannot see that because they
were defeated, the Democratic par>
ty has committed crime against
the colored man. Nor can we see
that simply because a man is color>
ed he is entitled to become legis-
latOr, regardless OF his capacity TO
make laws, or to uDmake or amend
them.
Madison county cannot lie charg>
ed with ignoring the colored man,
since she has heretofore given them
representation upon our ticket.
We know that it is not the wish
of the Democratic party of this
county to deprive any man of any
right that the laws of God or man
have given him. We know that
colored mr. are as safe in their
persons W. property in this county
as they \. :, in any part of the North,
that taaj enjoy free speech, free
ballot, fr. schools, free religion
freedom to work or play, freedom
to pursue gain or pleasure in every
legitimate way, and we cannot be-
lieve that any number of honest
colored men think their liberties OF
rights are in jeopardy because a
CO lored man is not on the ticket.
| While this committee does not
feel it a duty incumbent on them to
tamper with the ticket as put for
ward by the convention of July 7th
in order, that by so doing few
gentlemen may retire gracefully
from an awkward predicament, still
they are free to say that if vacan-
cy occurs they would not Object to
filling it with the hame of some good
intelligent colored man.
AS regards the threats made by
certain colored persons, that if their
independent ticket is not elected,
they will move to Kansas, we have
only to suggest that they have the
right to migrate whithersOever they
may please.
That it is not to the interest of the
Democratic party to obstruct any
man in Ills perigrinations, but on
the contrary to encourage a west
ward tramp in all those who can
not live and be happy in Madison
county. without holding off &c.
Fellow Democrats: yOu have put
your ticket in the field, whatever
errors may have been committed,
must serve as warning and be
rectified BY the next convention. 1t
is the duty of every good Democrat
TO lay aside his personal prejudices
and support the ticket, because it is
THE ticket of his party, and because
it is only by unity and by a surren-
der of personal feelings that the in
telligence of this country can main
tain the ascendancy.
IL will be an easy matter for you
to stamp out the. opposition which
arrays itself against you. You de-.
feated the mighty Radical party in
the days of its strength and glory ;
when led by far more energetic and
able leaders than those who now
blush to lead the weak opposition
to the Democratic party.
But We. advise you to face the
enemy, however small, and demons
strate at the next election how ut
terly useless it is in this country to
try to ride into Office by appealing
to prejudice.
