Cattle DIsease In New Jersey.

Considerable excitement has been
created among the owners OF cattle in
North Hudson county, New Jersey, by
the death of cows belonging to A. Lie
herman. The latter Is dairyman who
owned ninety milch COWS. Disease
broke out in the herd on Thursday and
twenty Wo of them have since died,
Two horses that were similarly affected
have also died and three others are
hopelessly sick. Mr.. LiebermAE's tirs'
suspicion was that some malicious
aeighbor had poisoned them but post
moTtein examination of one of the car
casses made by q veterinary surgeon
named Chambou showed that death re
suited from typhoid fever. DIR. BeDja
min, the Health Inspector OF Jersey
City, took active steps to prevent TIM
sale of the milk from the dairy in Jer'
soy City.

as is doubtless known TO mDst Of your
readers, the United States Courts have
decided; First-Ihat il the State pro-
vides .she ueaBssof eduestion for se.y of
the children of the Stateefl must prey ide
equally for alI-white snd black slike.
SeeoHd-Tiat il such equal provision be
not made for the blacks, that is, If they
have not an equal fund, reasonably con
yenient houses. ~ nd reasonably COMPETENT
teachers, they may demand adruittance to
the white schools. ThIrd-That any
teacher or other officer Of the State, who
shall, by the authority of the State avs,
exclude from any white school any clor-
ed child for whom educational facilities
equal TO those enjoyed by the white chill
dren has not been provided, is liable to a
fine OF one thousand dollars aud 10 imFris
onment for one year. Fourth-That if o
separate school be provided for the
BLACKS, at which they may enjoy adEan-
tages equal TO those enjoyed by the white
children, they have no right to demand
adInittanee 20 the white schools. Wheth
er the Law as thus expounded by sthe
Courts be ighteous or not, il must be nc,
cepted, and il leaves us to choose only
between these three measures: To pro-
vide for the blacks educational facilities
equal 10 those enjoyed by the whites TO
admit coIored children TO white schools
or to abolish the common school system.
