IN addition to the usual inconvenience which lots been sutl'ered b) the public from the prevalence of the horse disease, we limv see a complete blockaded condition of our railroads and the almost total suspension of all commer cial business in our city for mere lack of street transportation. This unusual state of affairs suggests the want of some immediate relief, both to the railroads and the merchant. Upon consultation, therefore, witti the railroad au thorities and the different dray companies in the city, I hereby give notice to any and all j>er sons in the adjoining counties, that they are in vited and requested to bring in their ox-teams and assist, us in tin- dray work of our city for the next two or three weeks, at the end of which time we hope to be aide to resume the horse and mule labor. Parties bringing their oxen to the city will be allowed to use them in the dray age of all goods FREE (>l-'LICENSE. 11 is believed that twenty to thirty teams could find constant work here for several days, at good paying prices. dee! 1 tf W.
