A Tribute to Judge Perkins.

COLUMBUS, HAS, NOV. 1l.-Atter q
long and tedious term of four weeks the
district court adjourned to-day This
being Judge Perkins last term in this
county the members of the Cherokee
county bar assembled in the parlors of
the Lagonda hotel last evening to the
number of thirty two, organized formal
ly and appointed a committee which
drafted suitable resolutions for the Occa-
sion. When the committee returned
with the resolutions, Judge Perkins was
escorted into the parlor and the resolu-
ti0ns were presented to HIM.
Judge Perkins, in very neat little
speech, returned thanks for their conf
dencc and well wishes, complimeniing
the members of the Cherokee bar upon
their gentlcmanly department and uni
form kindness, and pledged them his
favor and his warmest friendship. He
then invited them to go into the dining
hall, where an elegant banquet was
| spread. Judge Webb presided. and the
| spread was amply honored. The party
afterward returned to the parlors, where
short speeches and music were INDUCED
in, the meeting breaking up at about
midnight. Judge Perkins will open
court in Labette county next week and
| will then hold the December term in
Montgomery, which closes his official
| business in that sphere.

Then ANA Now.

From the Chester (Pa. } Gazette.
Ex-senator Dorsey, extensively known as one OF
the chief '.star routers," doubtless has changed
the complimentary opinion he expressed at the
appointment OF Wayne Macyeagh and Mr.. James,
as members Of General Garfield's Cabinet In the
National Republican OF March II, 1ss1-not so long
ago-we find the following dialogue between an
enterprising interviewer and Mr.. Dorsey. The re-
porter begins by asking:
'What do you think OF Wayne Macveagh? It is
reported that some Of you stalwarts doubt his or
thodoxy a republican,"
1.-THE impression that Macveagh is not q repub-
l1can in the largest and best sense is entirely
wrong. 1 believe that he will make one OF the
ablest and strongest attorney generals we have
ever had, and believe as much as can believe
anything that he will occupy the fore front as a
radical republican In respect to the enforcement
OF the election laws and the protection OF the
States"
at was reported that you were one OF the most
actlve opponents OF the appointment OF POstmas-
ter General James,"
mot being present / had no power or voice in
making cabinets Whether I was for or against
MT James would not have affected the result. 1
believe he VIII make one OF the best POStmaSterS
General we have ever had. His long experience
In the department and the unusual ability he has
shown In grasping and handling details, is an
evidence OF his eminent fitness for the place."
Taking it altogether, then. Mr.. Dorsey, said
the scribe, In conclusion, "YOu think the Cabinet
""
''Yes, do; and I am perfectly confident that be-
lore twelve months have elapsed the intelligence
OF the country will cordially indorse my opinion"

member OF the United States cattle commission,
says for the month ending July 18th, Chicago re-
greater number than ever before received in the
s,me length OF time. They were mostly slaugh-
tered, ana those not killed were kept apart from
domestic cattle, and are not likely to infect them
with the Texas cattle fever. Eastern breeders
who have not learned how to deal with
the disease are, however, troubled with it
Mr. Sanders thinks the cattle fever in the east is
from cattle shipped north from southern states
east OF Texas. where cattle are afflicted with
Texas fever. Mr. Sanders and other members OF
the commission will start for Quebec to-day to eX-
anime the quarantine system there, with view
10 adopting a similar one at Portland, Boston,
New YORK, Philadelphia and Baltimore within two
months. This Will allow direct importationssof
fine cattle from
