The Importation OF Cattle in England.

LONDON. MBv s.
Lord Carlingford, minister of agriculture,
in receiving deputation today, refused their
request to endeavor to secure an enactment
of the measure prohibiting the importation
of cattle from countries in which infection
exists. He promised, however, to prohibit
the entrance of infected animals, and that
such prohibition should be slringently exer-
cised. One of the objects of the deputation
was to obtain fresh restrictions on the Amer

One Of Bi~marck's Projects Frustrated.

BERLIN, May s.
In the debate on the Budget tor lSS4-5 in
the Reichstag today, Herr Reichter moved
to refer the subject to the commission, ii be-
ing impossible 10 make reliable estimates so
far ahead. The motion was adopted and
again frustrated one of Prince Bismarck's
favorite projects.
The debate OF the Budget in the Reichstag
Yesterday was remarkable, owing to the con-
cilia,ory tone of the speakers. Herr Windt-
horst, ultramontane leader, said that order
and true liberty could only be maintained by
powerful monarchiai regime. The exlsta nee
of republic in the European continent was
impossible, and even that IN France would
come to an end.

CACSE OF he RECENT PHESOM.
EVA

The theory advanced BY some. viz,
that the beautiful display in our south
ern and western heavens vas wholly due
to refvaction, is erroneous, fer With the
refraction is combined in a greater de-
gree reflection.
Refraction enters into the phenomena
in the following manner A ray of
light coming from = rarer medium TO
one mora dense is refractsd toward thu
normal or perpendicular, and hence the
snu's rays IN entering the atmosphere
of our planet are refracted toward the
earth's surface. Twilight and dawn
are both due in part 10 this change IN
direction of the suns rays. the opera
ton. Of rourse being reversed in the
two cases. For this reason We have twl-
light about one hour after the sun hal
SINK below the horizon IN tbs west, and
dawn one hOur before II has actually
risen IN the east. In other words, We
receive the suns RAYS until 1t has gotten
about eighteen degrees below the hori-
Zon when darkness ensueS, and get the
first streaks of dawn when II Is the
same amount below the eastern horiZ IA
and on its way to the meridian.
Taking the above theory of twilight
and dawn the recent phenomena are &C
counted for in the following manner
The suns rays are retrActed into the
, upper region of our atmosphere, and
are then r,fecfed toward the dense
strata Of clouds which have been envel-
opin2 the heavens full of moisture
these clouds receive the reflected rays
in the same manner - the spray of a
fountain receives the direct rays of the
| sun. BY which Is formed the RAINBOW.

A SlRPLlS REVENlE.

Nothing so foroibly exempliiies the
financial prosperity and solidity of the
National Government as the PROPOSE
ton, now seriously discussed, to abolish
all internal revenue taxes. Last winter
law was passed by Congress, which
went into effect the LIST of May, 1883,
exempting from taxation II large num-
bsr of articles, including bank capital,
deposits, checks, patent medicines,
matches, etc. The only internal rev
enus now collected is from taxes on dis
titled spirits, fermentei liquors and
manufactured tobacco, and the licenses
collected from persons engaged in the
manufacture and sale of those articles.
This aggregated during the year ending
jane Both. 1883, *l44.5h3,344, ninety per
cent of which was derived from the
whisky, beer and tobacco tax. The
Government does not need this revenue.

to have revenue much larger than

ment of the country will. we think, be
found against repeating the tax on
whisky. beer and tobacco. II will be
rather in favor of a careful revision of
the tariff, and reduction of duty on
necessary articles for wear and use.
Gradually the time mast come when a
high protective tariff will he unneces

manded by our people. That time has
not yet arrived, however. and no party
advocating absolute and unqualified

POST INTELLIGENCER
A REMARKABLE ADVANCE IN
VALUE.

General David h. Cotton of San Fran
cisco, who died suddenly a few years
since, was partner with Stanford,
Croker, Huntington, ct AL. IN the West
ern Development Company, which built
several branch roads and part OF the
Southern Pacific road. After Gen Cot
toms death, aud when the settlement 81
his estate came on his widow was inform
ed by surviving members Of the company
that her husband had used large suus
belonging to the company without an-
thority and without properly account
ING therefor, and WAS. A. she AYERS. IN
order to save her husbands memory
from disgrace, induced to settle On terms
which left her bat very small proper
ton of what was really her due As lega-
tie Of his es' ate. She brought suit 10
recover the difference, which 1t Is
claimed amounts to 81 ,OOO0 900, and the
case is now, under stipulation OF coUn-
gel. on trial in Santa Rosa. The testi-
mony is interesting. One little trans
action which comes to light IN the tes-
timony of Mr.. Douty, President OF the
Western Development Company, serves
TO show the method Of appralsing the
ssets of that company for the purpose
of settlement with Mrs. Cotton. 1t
must be borne in mind, in order to com
prehend the true inwardness OF the
transaction, tina. Messrs. Stanford,
Huntington, Cracker, ct al. were pre-
sumably and assumedlv friends of the
deceased. The Western Development
Company, at the time of the settlement
with Mrs. Cotton, owed note Of 81
Os6, 259. 1t was due TO the Central Pa
cific Sinking Fund and WAS secured
by 4409 Southern Pacific bonds nj 5000
each, payable in three years, which
were assets of the West. IN Development
Company. These bonds were appraised
i'll the settlement with Mrs. Cotton at 10
cents on the dollar, or an amount insult
ficieut to pay the note. Four days after
that settlement, according TO Mr.. Douty.
they were turned over to the Central
Pacific Company, i'll payment OF the
note, at 80 cents on the dollar aud &C
orued interest. The same kind of bonds
had been sold in New York over year
before at "a cents, and were sold shortly
after this transaction at - cents Oh the
dollar. This appreciation Of the value
Of railroad securities is without parallel
in the records Of stock and bond trans
Other appraisenents of securities held
by the Company at the date of the set
Element mentioned are of similar
character, although not SO transparent
iy atrooious and dishonOrable. The
testimony thus far in the trial ia a rev
citation of series of transactions re-
markable not more for their magnitude
than for the crookedness and unfair
dealing everywhere apparent. Large
numbers of stocks which the President
testified were held 10y his Company as
assets, we're omitted in the statement
presented Mrs. Cotton. Interest on
assets was also left Tut, while that upon
liabilities WAS carefully added. The
testimony of Mr.. Douty will not add to
the credit of the G. p. Il. X. autocrats.
