Mouth Disease Does Not Exist Here.
WAsHINGToN, July Sit has been report
ed to the Treasury Department that the
British Parliament is considering measures
looking to the Introduction OF cattle from for
egn countries, where the foot and mouth
disease prevails, and that an attempt will
probably be made to have it apply to the i'm
portations from the United States. 1t is
stated at the Treasury Department that such
am application would be unwarranted, as
thorough investigation of the subject in this
country has shown that the foot and mouth
disease does not prevail among the cattle of
this country. Steps will be taken to bring
this fact TO the attention of the British gov
ernment, that orders in the council on the
subject may not be made applicable to the
importation of cattle from this country.

One cannot but entertain feeling of con-
tempt for what takes on the high-sounding
name of trade" when great produce houses
like Armour, Plankinton & Co. and David
BOWS & Co. admit that the telegraph strike
has cut off half their business. OF course
all these firms do great legitimate business
in buying and selling provisions, but the
business of watching the quotations every
fifteen minutes and swapping back and forth
things known as lard, pork and bacon, which
for all the dealers know about them might as
well be dice, is not business at all, although
great many men live by it.
