Emperor williams Great
Age.
New York Evening Post.

New York Evening Post.l
Long reigns are rare in history, long
royal lives are rarer still. Princes
occupy one of the lowest ranges OF
longevity. The air of courts is de-
structive to health, nerve and vigor.
Lives which early corruption, luxuri-
Gus and effeminate habits, unchecked
passions and unceasing excitement do
not undermine, are frequently shorten
ed by consuming ambition and care,
warlike toll and peril, or the muder-
Gus hand of conspiracy. Among the
remarkable long reigns in history are
those of Uzziah of Judah (52 years),
Mithridates of Pontus $50, Sapoy III,
of Persia (7D, Alfonso l, of Portugal
(73), Frederick III, of Germany (52),
Christian ", of Denmark (60), Louis
XIV, of France, (72), George III, of
England (59), Ferdinand ", of
Naples (65), and Pedro ii, of Brazil
(51 till now). But Uzziah was a
youth when placed upon the throne,
Mithridates boy, Sapoy a newborn
babe, Alfonso an infant, Christian ii
years old, Louis 4, Ferdinand 8, and
Pedro 5, and of all the monarchs men
toned only George III reached the
age of four score Poland had one
King who reached the age of SO,
Stanislas Leszczynski; but he reigned
only five years, and survived his
throne ifty-six years, living in
quiet retirement. We must go back
to the days of antiquity to find Will
liam rs peers in age, and the only
ones we discover are Hero III, of
Syracuse and Massinissa of Numidia,
both of whom ended their reign at
the age of about 80 years. The
reign of Ramesses III, Pharaoh of
Egypt-the Sesotris of the Greeks
is believed by some Psychologists to
have lasted about 67 years, and his
life about 100, but others reduce both
his reign and days to normal pro-
portions. Thus, no Emperor known
to history, no reigning King in Chris
tendon ever reached the age OF
William l. Our age boasts of this
extraordinary life as it does of the
only Pontifcate, that of Piux TX,
which exceeded the term of st. Peter.
And Berlin, which still often sees its
Emperor King on horseback, also saw
in 1859 Alexander Won Humboldt
give the last touches to his "Kosmos'
in his Goth year; Raumer, in 1878,
olficicated as professor in his 92d
Field Marshall Wrangle, in 1871
walked it's streets in his oath, and
Ranke, in 1871 issued the first part o
a universal history, intended to EN-
brace eighteen volumes, in his seth
Molkte, who is not yet 80, must thus
appear to the German capital as mar
still available for action for many {
year to come.

CATTLE DROPPING DEAD.

p.t.aI Dispatch to the Pres.

:'P-c.al Dispatch to the Press.
READING. Aug. S-Persons whC
nave just returned from tour o
eighteen miles through North Heidel
berg and Jefferson townships, bring
tic most alarming reports cocerning
the deaths OF cattle from a new and
mysterious disease. Cattle have been
known to drop dead fifteen minutes at.
, ter they were fest attacked. Two
cows of Harrison Haak were driven
into pasture early in the morning
They were apparently well, but in
twenty minutes they dropped dead.
The rest of the herd commenced bel
lowing and paving the earth, and
pranced about the dead carcasses that
were rapidly swelling In a short time
SIX more Ui the same drove were dead.
The owner had thier swollen bodies
carefully lined and buried in the woods.
In t is way some thirty five head of
cattle perished on different adjoining
farms Some died in the stable Oae
farmer found two cows dead in the
barnyard. Among the other losers ure
Levi Meyer, Moses ScbaefTer, John
Snyder, Henry Zerbe, Gabriel Lutz
Benjamin Haas, Widow Klopp, John
Lutz, William Umbenhower, Joseph
Ernst aud others.
When the cattle are first attacked
they refuse to cot or driak They
seem to lie seized with q chill and
breathing becomes difficult. Some
moan and appear to be in great pain
In short timp they lie dowa and de
in great agony. Their bodies swell.
out of proportion and very foul odur
is emitted. A hasty examination Of
one of the bodies shows that the blood
of the dead animals turns completely

ing from apoplexy of the spleen, and
bis opinion is concurred in by Drs

from lockjaw and blood-poisoning.
His name was Harrison Iaag. lie
undertook to skin a carcass for its hide
and also to perform a post-mOrtem
Some Of the poison of the animal got
into bis system through q wound on
his hand, and in few hours his entire
system was poisoned. His body, arms
and limbs became fearfully swollen and
covered with black blotches. He was
then attacked with lockjaw and died
in terrible agony. Two others who
assisted him narrowly escaped death.
Their blotches were burned with caus-
tic. Since then no attempts have been
made to skin animals or examine
them. They are buried in hurry and
the balance of the herd quarantined.
All barnyards and stables are being
icleansed and farmers are
strictly quarantining oil their cattle.

THE SIFTINGS AND GOVERNOR IRE
LAND.

The "Siftings" being an Austin institution,
sort of an asylum for stale wit, as it were,
digs Gov. Ireland in the ribs with column of
advice as to how he shall run his Office. and
intimates that like all other Austin institutions
it is willing to become his champion, SC.
Now, so far as we are concerned, Judge
Ireland is the same man now that he was be-
fore the day of election. We like him person.
ally, but politically we have little respect for
him, and so far as his career as governor il
concerned we have no reason to expect any,
thing satisfactory. In the very nature of
things as now constituted in Texas, Ireland
will be powerless, even if he possessed the
ability or desire to change the mis-
cradle policy of state government we
have fallen into under democratic
rule. By system of Jerrymandering
the last democratic Legislature managed to so
arrange the districts as to destroy the chance
tor even minority representation in the lepis-
lature-the next senate will be strictly demo-
cratic-the house will be nearly so,-thus a
minority of over one hundred thousand voters
are practically excluded from representation,
while the party of spoils runs the state gov
eminent.
What can John Ireland do! Stop the mis-
cradle policy of state financiering that has ac-
formulated the peoples money in the vaults of
the treasury by the million, while the public
domain is given away by the million to build
capitol and state bonds are purchased at a
premium OF 40 per cent. This has all been
iione and can't be umdone.
Ireland will simply be figure. head to
nachine-that's all.
