A meeting to offer Inducements for the
South Bound road to go to Dorchester is
called for this evening at that place. Every
one is enthusiastic over the prospect, and
large attendance is expected. The right OF
way will be oheerfully given, and many Of
the land owners have signifed their inten-
ton OF letting the company have timber at
the least possible figure Unlike most
people, no single one is expecting the
railroad to have depot on
his or her particular lands. The people
want the road even II they are two or
three miles from 1t. The road, were it
built on the proposed line, would not miss
Dorchester more than q mile or two.
Jonesville will hold meeting, too, and offer
inducements. The belt of country through
which the line will pass is one Of the
richest sections Of Georgia. The lands have
been worked in ante-bellum days and were
gwen up only on account OF their isolation
from the railroads. The people do not
propose to jump prices OF the lands up, but
are willing and anxious to keep prices down
and sell to actual settlers only.

now beenthoroughly dried. The heaviest work
which has bsen undertaken was in connection
with the central part Of the spire, the four corn
or posts averaging SIS cwt. each, and the King
post Fl tons In weight. In order to secure
timbsrs Of the required size the contractor had
TO make q careful search of his wood-grants.
The corner posts were raised from the ground
by a derrick. but the spire scaffolding was built
specially strong by way of providing also for
the heavy lifts that were required, and the
sact that everything has been raised without
accident, or indeed hitch If any kind, is
striking testimony to the care, precaution,
and forethought exercised by Mr.. Anderson.
On works where as many as SO carpenters
have been on an average in daily employment
this year, and the construction has entailed
the handling of such heavy timbers, the
Clerk of the Works is deser wing Of the high
est praise for his achievement in this respect.
1t is admitted and recognised on all hands
that to his jealous discharge of the respon-
sible task committed to him, is very largely
due the present forward condition Of the
works. On the completion of. the outside

THE CONNECTION BETWEEN
TICKS AND CATTLE
DISEASE.
From the antique Observer, 23rd June.)

There are many difficulties which cluster
around the subject indicated by the heading.
The life history of the ticks is by no means
certainly known, and there appears to be
much difference of opinion even on the
symptoms of the Cattle-disease which has
caused so much loss Of recent years in
Antigua.
A number of circulars were prepared re-
q%uesting information concerning the. symp-
toms, seasonal prevalence and extent of
the Cattle disease, and also concerning the
distribution, time of appearance and ravages
of the ticks. Of forty such circulars dis
tributed thirteen answers have been receiv-
cd.
It is of course impossible to generalise up.
on such q partial foundation, but it would
appear that the Estates suffering most from
cattle-disease have their cattle infested by
ticks. There are five returns which acknow-
ledge the disease to be bad, anil four of
these complain of much annoyance from
ticks. On the other hand, of the seven
estates which profess to be free from disease,
ticks are only asserted to be prevalent upon
one.
I do not intend to lay any stress upon
these facts. An Unanswered and local re-
turn is liable TO be excessively misleading;
and answers may be unwittingly influenced
to q very great extent by preconceived
theories and notions but it will be well to
direct the attention of Estate Managers to
the possible relations existing between ticks
and the oattle-disease. That ticks are the
direct cause of the disease is hardly admis-
sible, but that they may DO the carriers and
propagators is quite possible.
Many Of the most terrible diseases are
caused by organisms in the blood and It's
sues, so minute that the most powerful
microscopes are required to detect them;
and, from its blood sucking habit, the tick
would be obviously we'll adapted to carry
the hostile organisms from diseased to healthy
animsls-for its own body and those of
its4 progeny are necessarily filled with the
disease germs.
The common house-fy is well known as a
dangerous element in the propagation Of
disease. Packard makes the remark that
"reCsnt researches &c to show that flies are
agents in the diffusion of infectious mala-
dies, epidemic and even infectious diseases"
Anthrax, according to another writer "has
been traced to the bite Of an unrecorded
species Of fly which had feasted on animals
lead from splenic fever Grave charges
IT atsimilarI character have been proffered
against the mosquito, thus adding to the list
OF evils which We suffer from that trouble.
some pest. II is quite reasonable, although
the cases are not strictly analogous, to
include the ticks in the same dread com.
pany !: and active measures in clearing the cat
kle Shouldlb be prosecuted with vigilance.
