THE PLAGUE.

LONDON, Feb. 8-A committee
of the Cattle Trade Association at
Liverpool, in order to avoid an in
terruption to trade, have offered to
erect the necessary lairage and
abattoirs to comply with the re-
quirements of the Privy Council.
1t is belived, however, that, in con-
sequence of the growing Importance
of trade to the port of Liverpool,
either the authorities of the cor
poration or the Dock Board will
undertake the work. All the arri-
walls of cattle from America since
the steamer Ontario's cargo have
been found entirely free from dis
ease. The severity of the weather,
therefore, it is believed, caused the
outbreak in that instance. The
British government is, under the
circumstances, not inclined to in
terfere with the Importation of
cattle from America provided there
is adequate inspection before ship
ment and provision Of the re-
quired lairage at Liverpool to put
them in position to meet such
cases as the Ontario's. It is not
believed that slaughter on the quays
will be enforced where no disease
exists. Gentlemen in the trade say
that under these conditions the
American shippers need not fear
any interference with business.

NEW YORK.

New YORK, Feb. 8.-The Potter
Committee met this morning. Gov
ernor Tilden entered accompanied
by his brother Henry A. Tilden, of
Lebanon, Jno. Bigelow and Henry
G. Dimmock. The Governor was
at once sworn by Mr.. Hunton,
the Chairman, who said: "Gover-
nor Tilden, we received your note
expressing your willingness to testi-
fy." Mr.. Tilden replied, 81 have
read the publication and translations
in the New York papers. 1 did not
recognize single one, either in
cipher or translation, which L had
ever seen before. I never entered
into any arrangements to purchase
the votes of South Carolina
or Florida. / had no in
formation nor suspicion that any
such communications were being
carried on until [ saw the dispatch
published in the New York Tribune.
L had no knowledge, nor any deals
ings with any parties to these nego-
tiations, and | never authorized any
such negotiations in any form what
ever. On the morning of Novem~
Der Goth, 1876, Mrs. Col. Pelton
mentioned in my presence that her
husband had gone for the day. l
did not know that he had
gone, or was going out
of the city. He went to
Philadelphia, / believe. Later in
the day, I was called on by
MIR. Cooper, who was on his way
down town, and was told by him
that he had received an offer from
some party, offering to obtain for
money, the vote Of South Carolina.
l said I would authorize no such
transaction, nor send money for
any such purpose. The whole conver-
satiOn occupied only few moments.
l obtained Col. Pelton's address
in Baltimore, and telegraphed him
to come. | knew nothing of the
ciphers that had been passing be-
tween him and others, and [ could
not have translated them. With
regard to Florida, | never saw-one
of the kilograms, either in cipher
or translations. | was not informed
that any negotiations were going
on in regard to illegally obtaining
certificates of the Returning Board.
Mr.. Marble told me. in a casual
kind of way about the corruption of
the Returning Board of Florida, [
never saw any one of those dis
patches relating to Florida, either
in cipher or translation. In regard
to the Oregon dispatches, | did not
know they came in cipher until after
the meeting of the committee to
investigate them. Some of the dis
patches were addressed to my resi-
dence, Is Gramercy Park. I do
not know that any of those dis
patches were ever delivered there.
Col. Pelton's habits of mind
and mine are very different.
A day or two after the election, Gen.
Grant wrote letter recommend
ing that committees to be appointed
to go South to see fair count. I had
nothing to do with the selection of
those committees. [ never heard
from them but once, and that was
communication signed by Mr..
Ottendorfer and others. l was very
busy all that time and did not un-
dertake to correct the idea that they
were my personal agents. That
idea has no foundation. They
represented the Democratic party.
None of them, so far as l know,
went to these States authorized to
do anything that gentlemen might
