The veteran enemy of the farmers.
the potato rot, is reported to be work
ing enormous damage in some sections
OF New York this season. Like some
lately developed disease affecting the
human family, this vegetable destroyer,
after its first raid, settled down as a
naturalized resident, and there have
been few seasons or sections of the
country wholly exempt from its depre-
dations. The unusual virulence dis
played in New York just now is doubt
less like the occasional visitations of
human plaques, only temporary and
local. A repetition of the ravages of
this disease in 1S47-4S would be a ma
tional calamity, but happily nothing of
the kind is probable.

tional Society of Microscopes, in exam
ining samples of the meat the eating of
which had killed several persons in
Momence, ILL.,, found changes which
were clearly attributable to frenzied
condition of the animals from which it
was taken. The Doctors opinions
upon the subject were formed after
careful microscopical examinations of
hundreds of samples of meat from cat
tie slaughtered in Chicago while they

CARDINAL McCLOSKEY.

Cardinal McCloskey, the head of the
Catholic Church in America, died at
his home in New York on Saturday
last after a lingering illness.
The Cardinal was born in Brooklyn,
in the year 1910 At that time there
was not a single Roman Catholic
Church in that city. Early in life he
exhibited a marked religious tendency
in his thinking and tastes, and turned
with enthusiasm to the study of the
ology. When he was eleven years old
he entered the College of Mount st.
Mary's When he had finished the
course he stood in the foremost rank
of the class. In 1884, the young man
who was to attain an eminence in his
Church in America, never before
reached, was ordained a priest by the
Right Reverend Bishop Dubois, in St.
Patricll's Cathedral, New York. In
the same church, forty one years after
ward, the Archbishop of Baltimore
conferred upon him the scarlet beretta
of Cardinal.
The Bishop decided to send young
McCloslley to Rome, to be near the
Vatican. and he made such good use
of his opportunities there and advanced
so rapidly in his studies that he was
considered, upon his return to Amer
lea, one of the greatest scholars in the
country.
During his residence in Rome, Father
McCloskey made the acquaintance of
many members of the church who were
destined afterward to become eminent
in different parts of the world. He
was connected with several churches in
New York, and in 1S47 went to Albany
where he remained seventeen wears.
During his life at Albany he was made
Bishop and Archbishop of the diocese.
In the administration of these offices
he was acknowledged to be one of the
most able, pious and scholarly ecclesi-
astics whom New York had ever had.
On the 2Sth of April 1885, he was
made Cardilalin ST. Patrick's Cathe-
dral, New York, amid the solemn pomp
and circumstance of an impressive
church service.
In 1884 the Cardinal celebrated the
golden jubilee of his ordination to the
priesthood. Upon this occasion testi-
monials of reverence and regard came
to the Cardinals mansion from every
rank of society. Foremost among
them was an autograph letter of felici-
tation from Pope Leo XIII. Accom-
panying this was a beautiful golden
chalice. The Cardinals strength, on
the occasion of his golden jubilee, was
| already much impaired, and he soon
afterward began to require assistance
in moving about. He had occasional
attacks of extreme weakness. In each
case he rallied. Since he has been on
his death-bed; his humility, patience
and resignation have been the con-
stant theme of those in attendance,
and in dying, as in living, he displayed
the simple, childlike character of the
true Christian man.

SENSIBLE ACTION.

The New Jersey Temperance Alliance
has laid down a platform upon which
every friend Of temperance, for the
cause ITSELF can afford to stand. Here
it is
1st. That we are thoroughly in favor
of the election of members of the New
Jersey Legislature who will vote for
temperance legislation.
Cd. That we believe that where either
party nominates q candidate who so
votes, temperance voters can best Sc
cure the above end by voting for them.
Sd. That where neither party does
nominate such a candidate, temper
ance voters should; by all means, vote
for distinct temperance candidates.
Separate and distinct nominations of
so-calIed "Prohibitionn candidates is
foolish, only aggravates sensible and
practical men against legitimate tenn
perance movements and can possibly
do no good When either of the prin-
cipal political parties nominate men
who are known to favor legislation
that will restrict the liquor traffic, all
true temperance men should give them
their support at the polls, and not en-
danger their election by Independent
candidates they know beforehand can
not possibly be elected. A candidate
for Member of Assembly run solely as
a temperance candidate never was
elected in New Jersey, and it will be "a
long time before such will be the case
the masses in all localities do not APP
prove of that way of settling the liquor
question.-New BrmSocick Fredonian.

is one of the oldest retail carpet deal

for himself large trade, especially so

His success in this has come from never

ure the firm reserved each year $50
from the boys wages, the whole
amount of the sum to be paid over at
the end of the five years. The firm
claimed that they We're not obliged to
pay this over until the five years had
expired, especially since by the rules
of the Glassblowers' League they could
not fill Parker's place with another ap-
prentice. Parker claimed that death
completed the contract In the court

OUTRAGES AGAINST NEGROES.

A dispatch to The Picdyune from Ar
cadia, Louisiana, says: On September
80, at a point thirty two miles south of
this place, near the line of Winn
Parish, four masked men entered the
house of Sampson Harris, colored, on
the pretence of looking for another
man, but on entering the house one of
the four seized Harris, saying: You
are the man we WANT and shot him
twice, inflcting wounds from which he
died. 1t is reported that Harris was
killed because he had threatened to ex-
pose certain persons for whipping
some negroes in that neighborhood.
This affair of whipping the negroes
caused great indignation on the part
of many white people. The whipping
of the negroes and the murder were re-
ported to the Governor, who instruct
ed Judge Drew to cause the arrest of
the persons under suspicion, and the
warrants were issued here last week.
ID. Il. Ferguson, deputy sheriff, with
three other men, arrested the fourmen
alleged to have been concerned in the
murder of Harris and brought them
here to-day. The prisoners were kept
in the lookup here until this evening.
SiAi' N'SLiiios "
when they were taken to Minden for
safety. The white residents take
great interest in bringing the guilty
men to justice, and are using every
means to that end. 1t appears from
reports that about ten men in all were
concerned in the affair of the whipping
and the murder of Harris.

There was a meeting on Thursday
last, in the office of State Superinten-
dent Chapman, at Trenton, of large
number of the City and County Super
intendents Mr.. Chapman called them
together for a discussion in a quiet
way of several subjects of importance
to them. That of county institutes
was given the most attention. The
State Superintendent objects to the
methods in vogue of conducting them.
He says they are addressed by foreign
lecturers, such as have hobbies, and
they do the teachers but little good.
At the county institutes the teachers
should talk and discuss matters relat
ing to the instruction of children
among themselves. The Superintend
ents discussed also the system of ex
animation which obtains throughout
the State. These make mere scholar
ship the test, which the State Superin.
tendent holds never alone makes the
teacher. The question of experience
and training should be injected into
them. Several reformations, it is
thought, will follow as a consequence
of the meeting. The Superintendent
were together several hours.

A writer in the forthcoming Move

A writer in the forthcoming (Novem-
ber) Hdrpe1's treating of THE Defence
of our Sea-ports," points out that in
nine of our seaboard cities alone prop
erty valued at S3, 322, 900, coo is exposed
to destruction in case of war, because
of lack of sea coast defences adequate
to cope with the navies of the fighting
powers. He sketches the remarkable
development of ordnance and armor
since our war, stimulated in a large
measure by its lessons, but in which we
have had no part. The new English
guns throw shot of 1000 pounds, pene-
trating 30 inches of iron at a distance
of thousand yards, and have an eff
fective range of six miles. The writer
urges that immediate provision should
be made for an extensive torpedo out
fit, for gun factories capable of produc-
ing the modern guns, and for a general
system of coast defence, at an eXpend-
iture of ten millions year for six or
seven years. 1t is announced that this
paper will be followed during next
year, in HarDer's by careful study of
''The British Navy" by Sir Edward
Reed, and by paper on Krupp's gun
factory, both fully illustrated.

The past week has been one of the
most active in the iron trade in all
markets from Boston to st. Louis. In
Pennsylvania markets 10000 tons of
steel rails We're sold, and inquiries are
in hand for 100000 tons, which will be
placed during the next two or three
weeks. Meetings of railroad projectors
have been held and the initiatory steps
have been taken for the inauguration
of railroad building in the West and
Northwest, conditional upon the con-
tinued improvement of traffic, demand,
prices and general business The out
look continues to improve. Crude iron
is rather weak, in view of the pros
pective increasing supply from fur
naces preparing to blow in. Bar-iron
is $3.50 to $1.70; nails, $220 to $2.40;
sheet-iron, $3.25 to $3.50; steel rails,
$30to $31. Building material and staple
hardware is in abundant supply in all
markets and consumption is very
heavy

AS two out of twenty-five Presidents
have been assassinated, or about 10 per
cent, the risk in life insurance is extra
hazardous. 1t is said that Arthur had

President he obtained a second for the
same amonnt. Five thousand dollars
