The New District Attorney.


he TAKES THE OATH OF oFFICE-MRssRs- HUGH TAG
CART AND RANDOLPH CoYLE RETAINED AZ HIS
ASSISTANTS.
MI. A. S. Worthington, the recently appointed
district attorney, who received his commission yes
terday, appeared in the Criminal Court, Judge
Wylie, this morning about $40 O'Clock, with Mr. E.
Fl. Thomas, his assistant.
Mr. Corkhill arose and said that his successor in
office was present and had been commissioned. He
might nave been pleased IL another person whom
ne Knew had been appointed, but mOdeSty forbid
Nun saying who 1t was He wished to say. how
ever, that the appointment Of Mr.. Worthington
met with the approval Of the bench and bar and
the community generally.
Mt. WorthingtOn said he appreciated the CON-
words, and he was now ready to take the oath of
onlce and enter upon hts duties
MT NOrthingtOn then walked up to Judge
Wylie and, taking the Bible in his hand, the court
administered the oath OF ONCE.
MI. WorthlngtOn, after the pending case-that OF
Ezekiel Smith, charged with embeZZlement-had
been called. stated that he had received his com.
mission at so late an hour yesterday that he had
not had time to prepare for the trial
Inc court thereupon adjourned the jury till to-
morrow morning.
THE DISTRICT ATTORNEYS AssIsrANrs
Mr. Worthngton has decided TO retain Mr. Hugh T.
Taggart as his first assistant, and Mr.. Randolph
Coyle as his second assistant Both OF these gen.
tlemen have been connected with the Office fol-
some years. and.they have each made high reputa-
tons as prosecutors, and have won the confidence
and respect OF the courts and of the bar. 1t would
have been difficult for Mr.. WorthingtOn to have
made better selections. The appointment OF Mr..
E. Ii. Thomas as the assistant Tor the Police Court
Is regarded as good one. A more energetic. IN
duStrious member OF the bar cannot be found. Mr..
Frank Irvine, who has filled position as clerk In
the onice, has resigned, but his successor has not
yet been named. Mr. Harvey Given has been ap-
pointed In place OF Mr. Sam Noble as messenger.

Inc Horse Disease 1t Langley, Va.
PROBABLY AALARIAL, AND NOT DUE TO FEEDING
ENs1LAGE TO THE ANIMALS.
The following letter received by resident of
Langley, Va, (where so many horses have recently
died,) from Luther Tucker Son, Of the Cuutratoy.
and Country Gentleman, Of Albany, N. Y, will be
read with interest by farmers aud horse-owners
generally:
ALBANY, N. Y, Jan. "a, 1884.
Dear Sir: Yours about feeding ensilage to horses
has been shown to several hOrsemen and vetertna-
rlans, and we have decided 1t best TO put general
inquiry on the subject In the Country Gentleman
All are unanimously OF the opinion that ensllage
had nothing whatever to do with the death OF yOJf
horses The same disease has occurred here In thu
horse car stables and also in the Ice company sta
bes, where no ensilage has ever been fed Veten-
narians diner as TO the cause, but mostly seem to
think 1t malariaL Prompt cleaning and white
washing OF stables free use OF powdered charcoal,
sulphate OF iron, carbOic acid and other disinfect
ants, and powerful antifetertle medicines have In
variaby stopped the disease from further spread
An animal so parayzed that it cannot stand Is con-
sldered beyond help. The veterinary surgeons
give medicines to every horse, sick or well Ann
physician can prescribe medicine for malartal dis
cases. and with the disinfectants indicated you can
prevent further troubles.

AFRAID OF A FRESHET.
MI. j. Harrison johnson, merchant. 31OS West
Water street, has addressed a note to the Commits
sioners containing timely suggestion in relation
to relieving the merchants Of Water street west,
(Georgetown.) from danger from freShet and Ice
gorge He proposes that the Commissioners re-
move the causeway connecting Analostan Island
ana the virginia shore. or so much as necessary to
grade OF one foot above an ordinary high water,
so that when the Potomac rises the ice and other
refuse will have outlet by what Is known as Little
river, thereby nearly doubling the avenues OF
escape.
Messrs- Wheatley Bros, ct al, in note to the
commissioners request that they take some action
to have the ice on the Potomac river, between Gies
boro Point and the Aqueduct bridge. broken up.
Mr.. Robert Callahan, keeper of the Marble Sa-
loon, In note TO the commissioners expresses the
hope that they will take some means to break the
ice and keep the channel OF the river open
MISCELLANEOUS.
The Commissioners have written q note to the
Senate District committee stating that they see nc
objections to Senate bill 500 providing for the
closing OF an alley in square a34 between 18th and
14th and W and Boundary streets northwest
The commissioners have sent to the Senate Dis
tr1ct committee communication in relation to the
