known young farmer, living just outside of

The deceased contracted the malady from a
horse. He had been i'll four weeks. His
body was complete sore, and he suffered in
describable torture. Physicians were unable
to determine the disease. Finally, a local
veterinary here surmised that the ailment
was CHAMBERS, and DIR. Paaren, of Chicago,
who examined into the matter on Wednes-
day last, so decided. AT Paaren's suggestion
Lorrensen's sick horse, that had been both
cred with an unknown ailment for two years
past, was shot. Fears are entertained that
the disease will spread, although all precau-
tons are taken to prevent.

H. o. Hoffman, his predecessor, and its

of the funeral of a lady member OF the

the whole affair should be dropped now,
and dropped forever no matter who
was to blame; that carrying on this dissen-
sion the church was crucifying anew the

was so deeply affected that he was almost

The Political Situation.

| [NIr. Horatio Seymour in North American Review
for February
The results of this years elections
have excited much comment. AT first
view they seemed to be due to dissen-
sions in the Republican ranks, but on
closer study their explanation is found
to lie deeper; it is "ground-swell," of
which all surface disturbances are ef-
fects, not causes. TO get an under
standing of this subject it is necessa-
ry that we dismiss from our minds all
partisan prejudices, for it concerns the
organic principles of our Government,
and demands a thoughtful considera-
ton.
The American people are divided
into two parties; these grow out of
the form of our Government each is
needed for its preservation. All agree
that there is division line between
powers of the General and the State
governments. To enlarge unduly the
power of the States endangers the
Union. To extend unduly the juris-
diction of Congress leads to corrup-
ton.
For a long time the Democratic
party had the direction of affairs.
The division of our country into free
and slave States, led the latter, out of
fear of Federal interference, to carry
the doctrine of State rights too far.
Civil war was the result. After the
contest was over there was reaction
against the doctrine Of State rights.
A feeling grew up that the stability
of the general Government might be
insured by giving it to larger powers.
Jurisdiction was mistaken strength.
This sentiment was carried too far,
for, while State rights have been UNI
duly magnifed, they still exist, and
are as sacred as the rights of the gen.
cral government.
Our Oldest political organisms are
those needed by local communities
