Diseased Cattle,

The outbreak of what is known as
splenic fever, in this State and in Penn
sylvania, has caused considerable alarm
among droyers and large cattle owners.
About Pittsburg it has proved very ia
tai. The splenic fever has been COM
monty known as Texas fever, and North
ern cattle have taken the disease recent
" in most cases where they have come
in contact with Texas cattle. 1t is dis
ease peculiar TO the OK tribe, and occurs
among Southern cattle in mild form
in the early Spring. mothers the germs
of the disease remain latent and are de-
veloped with great rapidity when the
animal is subject to shock, such as stam-
pede, or to hardships consequent on rail-
road travel. 1t is indigenous to Texas,
but exceedingly fatal to Northern cat
tie.
Owners Of cattle in the Northern
States will probably take active meas
Wes to prevent Southern cattle mixing
with their herds. The United States
have adopted meaures to prevent the
introduction of disease from imported
cattle. The law provides that the im-
porter shall select place for the deten.
ton of imported cattle. They are trans
ferred thence by another vessel, and must
be kept 800 feet away from any other
cattle. The term of quarantine is nine
ty days, but the time of the voyage is to
be counted as part of the period. The
importer has to file bonds in twice the
value of the animals for the observance
of quarantine restrictions. In connec-
ton with the Federal quarantine, the
War Department in 1880 coded to the
Treasury Department a tongue of land
on the inside of Sandy Hook.
The Cattle Commissioners have been
studying the contagious diseases Of cat
tie. and Professor James Law, Of Cor
nell University, has been for some time
experimenting on the prevention of
pleuro-pneumona by means of inocula-
ton, His experiments, however, are
not so complete that he is ready to give
them to the public. The Commission
ers have had the subject of the Texas
fever brought to their attention, and it
is presumed all possible measures will
be taken to prevent the spread Of the
disease. The particulars Of the malady
affecting the cattle of Central New
York have been specially reported to
the Commissioners. Rochester Demo-
crat.

A Mosaic Portrait of Garfield,

DR.. Salviati, who gave to this country
the fine mosaic portrait of Lincoln now
in the library of congress, and who is
now completing Companion portrait
of Garfield, which he will also give to
America, was formerly u leading lawyer
of Vcenza in Venetia. Seeing the
magnificent mosaics in st. Marks
church, Venice, going to destruction
because no one understood how to re-
store and preserve them, he abandoned
his profession and began studying the
lost art OF the Byzantines. BY his skill
the mosaics of st. Marks were restored,
and he has executed many other i'm
portant works in Westminster abbey
and st. Pau's. London; in the cathedral
OF Aix-la-Chapelle, where three thou
sand square feet of surface were cover
ca in two years and u half; and ut
Bangkok, where the outside Of cupola
OF the kings palace, seventeen thousand
square feet in area, was covered with
some 100000 bits Of gold enamel.
The portrait Of Garfield Is now almost
finished in DR.. Salviati's studio in Ven
ice, and Is described as marvelously
perfect piece Of work. ..a.e

The Sound Sleeper.
A colored Preacher Who Couldn't Control Him
self

Parson Hensely stole q horse, and
was arraigned before the court. "Par-
son." said the Judge, ~ have always
regarded You as an honest man, and |
am surprised to see you here, arrested
upon such charge, and with proof so
conclusive. Why did you steal the
horse, parson?"
'Jedge, dat word steal, much as |
admires de hippancy OBJ yer language,
sab, is jist triile too stiff far dis heah
occasion. Now I'll tell yer jist how dis
thing occurred. In de fust place, Use a
sleepwalker While | was asleep L
went ter de stable, and tuck dc horse
out"
But the evidence shows that you
plowed the animal awhile"
''Zackly, sab. I'll tell you what's a
fack, jedge; las year drapped off ter
sleep airly in de spring, an when (
woke up had done made a crap"
That's all very well, parson. The
evidence says that after blowing the
horse while you sold him to chicken
peddler."
"Zackly, sab. I'll tell yer what's a
fack, jedge; two years ago | went ter
sleep an when l woke up I had sold my
steers, got de money, bought ferry
boat, sold hit, bought horse, sold hit
an put de money out at intrust wild a
brudder in de church"
That's all very straight, parson, but
the evidence says that shortly after you
sold the horse the owner and consta-
bic came along. You took to your
heels and did not stop until you were
shot in the arm"
"'Zackly, sab. I'll tell yer what's a
fack, jedge; durin' de wah l went ter
sleep one day an when l woke | foun'
dat de soldiers had been chasin' me
roun' for more'n week"
The case was submitted to the jury,
and in a very short time verdict of
guilty was rendered.
"Well, parson," said the Judge, show
long do you think you can sleepP"
II doan know 'zackly, sab, but I'll
tell yer what's fack, jedge----"
Never mind any more facts, parson.
Wen just assign you to II ten years

doubt keep awake. You are all right,
| find, SO long rs you are awake, but
you will sleep"
