The Canadian ofBoial mentions that the
Dominion government is about to take
measures to prevent tho introduction of
this disease in Canada. An agent of that
government has already reported its ex
istence in the United States. A telegram
to LeDnc from J. B. Sherman, Soperin-
tendent of the Union Stock Yards, Chi
cago, brands as absolutely fel-o, the re
ports of tha prevalence of oattle disease
in the West, and says tha action of tho
British and Canadian government, is bi
sed on a misconception of faots. LeDno
replied: The disease to which yonr tele*
gram refers appeared in this oonntry as
early as 1843, and there is no more rea
son for tne present aotion cf the British
government than has existed for years
past. Secretary Sherman has issued s
circular instraoting th9 oolleotors of cus
toms that in so case will live animals be
permitted to be shipped from their re
spective porta until after inspection as to
their condition of health, and the issu
ance of a circular that they are f.-ee from
disease.
The minoiity report in the Bntler-Gor-
binoase, whioh is signed by Messrs.
Merrimon, Sanisbnry, and Hill, takes the
position that the whole case was presen
ted to the Senate at Ihe time Bntler was
admitted to his seat; that no new evi
dence is claimed to be presented, and that
it is but a request whioh it has onoe for
mally deoided. If^bowever, a majority
of the Senete differ in the view presen
ted, and shall, withont precedent, with
out law, and withont reaton, determine
to ra-examine on its merits the title of
M'. Corbin to the seat, they submit that
the former [decision, excluding him from
t.bo seat was right and ought not to be re
versed.
The minority take the ground that
sixty-three members, a majority of
the entire namber of representatives
provided for by the constitution of the
State, aro necessarv to constitate a quo
rum, and that Corbin was not therefore
elected. It is also claimed that the facts
in the case show very plainly that the
Board of State Canvassers were guilty
of a disreputable attempt by mere trick
ery to defeat the result of the election by
the people, and each conduct should not
receive the countenance of the Senate.
A special meeting of the National E lo

advocated government aid to bmld two
lines of railroad through Texas to the
Mexican border on the Rio Grande.
One of the lines is to start from Gal
veston and follow along the coast to the

go; the other from the militarydiead-
quarters at San Antonio to Laredo on the
Rio Grande, and to be known as the San

London, February 5.—The slaughter
of a cargo of cattle brought by the steam

an abattoir in Liverpool, under the su
pervision of eminent veterinary authority

business to-day, the witness whom they
expected not having arrived from Sonth
Carolina.
Nzw Yoke, Febrnary 6 —Tho Potter
snb-Committee havo commenced proceed
ings at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. Mr.
Springer, of the Committee, stated that
the inquiry will be pushed right through
with a view ot concluding by Saturday
noon. In reply to the question as to
whether Governor Tilden had been sub
poenaed, Mr. Springer said he has not,
and I Have my doubts as to whether he
will be; this, however, does not make any
material difference, for in any case we
shall give him the opportanity of appear
ing before the committee. Smith M.
Weed, of Plattsbnrg, New York, waa the
first witness. He testified that ho was
in North and South Carolina daring
the election. The witness had a cipher
when he left here, which he nsed from
both North and Sonth Carolina. He
destroyed both the key and copies of the
dispatches, bat said he must confess that
the dispatches published in the Tribune
were pretty correct. At Colombia be
was informed that the Stato had gone
Democratic, bat tho canvassing board
would not give the certificate to that
effect unless thiy were paid for It. He
telegraphed to New York asking if money
conli be famished. The dispatches
between myself and Henry Havemeyer
were the only oneB I sent. He received
an answer whicn he understood to be an
assent to the proposition. Finally a defi
nite proposition was handed me, saying
that for $69,000 or $80,000 the Sontn
Carolina canvassing beard could make
things all right for the Democrats. He
left for Baltimore. At Baltimore he met
Col. Pelton, who informed him that the
matter had come to the knowledge of
Mr. Tilden, who refused to permit any
money to be nsed. Mr. Hampton,
Senator Gordon and Mr. Haskell had
no knowledge of the negotiations.
Although he had destroyed the cipher
key, he knew that all the dispatches pub
lished in the Tribune wore not correctly
rendered. No money was paid by him,
or by anybody, to his knowledge, to the
Sonth Carolina Returning Beard. He
read the dispatches signed “W,” pub
lished in the Tribune, and denied sanding
them in the form published. The dis
patch commencing, “majority of the
Board have been ee cured, etc,” was snb-
Btan'ially correct. He did not go to
Florida, and never had anything to do
with a plot to bnyfonr members of the
South Carolina Legislature.
Mr. Springer asked: “Had yon any
communication on the subject with Mr.
Tilden from the day before the election,
either directly or indirectly, np to tho
time of the Sonth Carolina canvassing
board met, or did yon hare any aftei?"
Y. i! I met him at the Everett Honse.
He took me to task. I cannot give yon
tho exict words about the proposition,
and stated that he never authorized any
snob proceediogr; that while he lived ho
would never become President under such
circumstances.

the season, so far, where the troupe was
at all meritorious. Macon waa rising in
its indignation and wasabont to allow
the two Dromios to display their mirlh
provoking qualities to a.beggarly array
of empty benches, especially as the
troupe W£s advertised in other cities as
playing for but one dollar for reserved
seats. It was the principle of the thine.
The “balm in Gilead” came last night in
qhe annonneemest from the agent of the
troupe that only the customary charges
would bo made. The extra prices were
fixed nnder an entire misapprehension
and he regrets it exceedingly. As soon
as he learned the nsnal custom he im
mediately reduced tho rates, and so
only the n3nal price will be charged.
Everybody wants (o sea the Dromios and
the rush for reserved scats will be lively
thi3 morning.
—Tbs most unreasonable request we have
ever heard of was that of the criminal who
asked that his executio • might bo delayed
for a time bsc&nse ho was In failing health.
Absolutely free from Merphia and

DROPSY.
I never shall
Forget tlie First Dose,
Peovidbsce.
Mr H R Sikvebs—
Dear Sir—1 have been a great sufferer from
dropsy. 1 was confined to my house more than
a year. Six moths of tho time I was entirely
helpless. I was obliged to have two men to help
ms in and out of bed 1 waa swollen 19 inches
larger than my natural size around my waist
1 suffered all a man could and live. I tried all
remedies for Dropsy. I had three different doc*
tore. My friends all expected I would die; many
nights 1 was expected to die before morning.
At last Vegetine was sent me by a friend. I
never shall forget the first dose. I could realize
its good effects from day to day; I was getting
better. After I bad taken some 5 or6 bottles 1
could sleep quite well at nights. I began to guu
now quite fast. After taking some 10 bottles, I
could walk from one part of my room to the
other. My-appetite was good: toe dropsy had
at'tbis time diaappeared. I kept taking the
Vegetine until I regained my naual health. I
heard of a great many cures by using Vegetine
after I got ont and was able to attend to my
work, lama carpenter and builder. I will also
say it has cured an aunt of my wife’s ef Neural-
gia, v ho bad snlferel for more than 20 years.
She says she has not hid any neuralgia for eight
months. 1 have given it to one of my children
for Canker Humor, I have no doubt in my
mind it will cure any humor; it ia a great
cleanser of the blood; it is safe to give a child.
I will recommend il to the world. Mv father is
86 years old. and he says there is noth’ng like :t
to Rive strength and Lie to an aged person. I
cannot bo too thankful for tho use of it. I am
Very grateful yours, JOHN 8 NOITAGB.
All Disuses op thb Blood—If Vegetine
will relieve pain; cleanse, puniy. and cure such
diseases, restoring the patient to perfect health
after trying different physicians, many reme
dies and suffering lor years, is it not oonclcsive
proof, if you are a sufferer, youcan be cured?
Why is this medicine performing such great
cures? It works in the blood, in toe circulating
fluid. Il can truly be called the-Great Blood
Purifier. The great source of diseaie originates
in toe blood: and no medicine that does not act
directly upin it, to purify and renovate, has
any just claim upon publio atteztion.

"It is unnecessary for me to enumerate toe

use, with good results. Almost innumerable
complaints are caused by poisonous secretions
