Mr. Cox of New York "reciting that the

the House may determine what steps if
any ought to be taken in consequence of

lution waa rejee led by a vote of 79 to 09
a party vote. Stevenson of Ohio then
offered a resolution which waa adopted
without division requesting the President
to communicate information relative to the
condition of affairs in Louisiana and

Texas and Ih Indian Territory" with Iht

principal of Its existing necessity te our

carefully and gravely canvassed that lit

ment! and wishes of Ihott when It It des
tined to terve.
First the only expression ever had
upon Ilia subject exists In a resolution of
our Legislature at ilt trttlon of 1868
wherein our Senators and members art
recommended and instructed to create
and pretent lo Congress a bill establish

expression having since been hsd from
any legitimate source or through any
channel other than the official peraon of
Mr. Conner it standi to reason that tueh
it still Ihe will of the people else they in
official form would have auggeited a
change. True it Is Mr. Conner was hot
then the Congressional Representative of
this District' and may not feel bound to
respect Ihe behests of a constituency
given his predecessor but It does seem to
ns that he should be governed In this
matter striotly to the letter of those In
strnotlons at they stand tO'day uhlta
peached and without a tingle amending
sentence among the solemn sots of the
Legislative Representatives of a people
who have houored him with their oonfi

to ut the chief component part of the
Western District of that State a district
now no largor unless it be in uninhabited
territory than one whioh can and ought
to be formed from the north and north

i Now that no auch point for dodging the
question may be raised as the undue on-
croaohment upon already organiacd Fed-
eral District? we will suggest for Ihe
benefit of all parties concerned a District

a natural seat-of-justice at Ihe City of

lei this with the uninhabited country
lying west of ns will give ample territory
to the District without seeking it from the
Indians and as can be seen by referenoe
to the maps will make no unjust raids
upoa our neighboring Districts. It will
also be seen that by adopting these or
aimilar boundary lines Dallat becomes
the proper place lo tatablish the court
and the expressed will of the people there
by meeting due respecte. If Mr. Conner
is legialat ing for the whole people of his
District and not for those of Shrshan as
is certainly suggested by the tenor of his
bill then let bim not make indecent haste
in this matter but refer it to the action of
hit;successorsasnow Ihe question is fairly
open they will be better prepared to in
telllgently represent the views of the peo
ple.. We have always honored Capt Con
ner and have applauded his earnest de
votion to the interests of hit people and
would fain believe him honest and unsel
nab. in this matter but must frankly say
that in order to convince the people of
his District that suoh is the case it is
simply left him to withheld his bill for
the aotion of the next session of Congress

or otherwise fully 'advise and in

Mr. Jamet Darkness said: We were
clear of thla catarrhal dlataae until Bun-
day when a change of the weather came
and on Monday morning (here were a few
eases. After that it increased with great
rapidity. I suppose there are fifty eases
or more in my stable at present. Borne
of them art hUeoked in a very mild form
nd others were of course tcrerer. no
wished lo sav that in consequence of the
press calling It by the name of epiioolie
the public had Ihe idea that Ibat was the
nam nf tha dlaeaae. while ibreality.it
only distinguished It from en epidemic In
man. It had existed for hundreds of
yttrt. Properly speaking It is catarrhal
fever. In ita simple form it is purely a
catarrh but as It Inoreases In severity II
la called eaterrhal fever. It Is first con
fined lo the chneiderlan membrane that
lines the nose (ben It extenas to me tur-
binated hone then to the larynx phyrinx
and glottis. There it is called laryngitis.
It comes down to the bronchital tubes and
is called bronchitis. Then the lungs and
pleura are involved and it It called pneu-
monia. Here are three distinct kinds
and thla is the mildest form and easiest
cured. In th course of seven or eight
dayt there are defluotions from the note
and then it involves all the respiratory
organs. Then there commences a swell-
ing of the lower extremities; the blood is
then poisoned; the corpuscles and scrum
separate! the thib part filtrating through
the veins and cauaintt dropsy. In the
worst form the digestive organs are in
volved: the liver Is stenernlly the first or
gan attacked and there is also a total loss
nf annetilo.
In its mild form the disease runs eight
nine or ten days tbo worst form some
times takes two or three months.
In the first form the main thing was
nurelnjr! to take great care of the animal
Tha sneaker said he had some laree buok-
els in which he put fine hay and poured
in boilini water. It made an excellent
tea. He nut a bat: on the horse'e nose
and let the steam of the tea pass up into
ii thoroughly steaming it. He put bran
or some other material with the liny and
gave it to the patient lo eat. He contin
ued tbat treatment several times a day.
The first onset of the disease like all
other fevers Was attended with a oh ill;
una of them were very severe chills like
ague. He gave twenty or thirty drops of
tincture of aoonite and about two urams
of powdered lobelia aeed. If the chill was
repealed in two or three hours he gave
auothcr dose
One feature of the disease was complete
nrostration and loss of strength. From
the moment the animal was attaoked it
should not be used in any shape or form
If it were the chances would go against
the recovery or the patient. - -
In reply lo a gentleman present Mr
narkness said Ibat he would keep the hor-
m hlanketed. In the country where
there is plenty ofetood - straw they should
stand in it up to their KneeB.
Mr. Kinney asked if the horses required
any exeroisc at all.
Mr. Harkness said he never exercised
them until they were convalescent. He
then took them out and give them what
he called a sunbath. Under no olrcum
stanoes wou'd he bleed or physio them.
Mr. Montieth asked if he thought the
disease was conveyed in the atmosphere.
Mr. Harkness said: Undoubtedly. It ii
one of the symotio disoaset oonvcyed by
the atmosphere. It is not contageous at
all.
Mr. Montlesh asked if where the attack
was light he would consider goad nurs.
ing sufficient. He said he would certain
lv.
Mr. Harris asked about the right kind
of food. Mr. Harkness said be would put
boiling water on oats and give them a
little; would not give them hay at all.
Ground meal is very good.
Mr. Tilden asked if the horses needed
stimulants.
Mr. Harkness: In the advanced stages
I give tonio medioin. I givo nothing to
dcnlete them. Muriate of ammonia is
very good ;. camphor is good gentian is
good ; sulphate of iron once or twice a day
will be bonefiolal.
Mr. Riley questioned Mr. Harkness
about the disease being contageous. Ho
said that one of Ihe largest colleges in
Berlin and iu the colleges at London and
Dublin they had tried it every way no d
they did not think it contagious. If he
had a hundred sick horses he would not
fear to put one among them. .
The first onset runs eight or ten days.
Some are attacked very violently and die
in twenty-four hours. It ia probable that
next spring our cattle will suffer from it.
The president asked what eonrae should
be pursued in regard to horset that are
not affected. . '
Mr. Harkness said that in the oountry
he would take his stock in; keep them
dry before all other things; If colta keep
them in dry sheds. He would not feed
dry hay ; it waa irritating.
Mr. Weilandy asked ir he wouia seep
them warm or cold.
: Mr. Harkness said ho would admit plen
ty of fresh atr but keep drafts out. He
would give them all the air and sunlight
he conld. . He had a flue at each stall in
his stable. . He waa for thorough ventila-
tion. .......
In answer to further questions Mr.
Harkness insisted that the newspapers
should call the disease by its old same of
influence and then the people would un
derstand it better. . .

Not politically I For neither with the

with the awful rnsllclsra ebout to go into
foroe at Austin dors there appear ground
of hope. What with the sentiment on
which Ihe Washington dynasty bases its
power tbat nothing belonging lo Slate
Kights nothing belonging to local gooa
nothing but the supremacy of Ihe dynasty
is worth cultivating; and with the senti-
ment that Pervades our people that the
world line not moved nor the government
changed in its fundamental prluoiplcs
and objects and powers in the last twelve
years I see no bright political vista
opening up before vs.
But politics are not all of publlo affairs
and if I mistake not there will prove to
be powers ero long In our Slate that will
be bigger and stronger than both democ-
racy and radicalism combined if combi-

powers at least for the change if nothing
else.
Do you ever In these progressive days
brother Swindells stop to contemplate
what is going on ? Two years is a short
time In a hundred two years ago ana
you were in the bock-woods I The obo-
rielnal wolves of the Threo Forks bottom
howled almost within hearing of your
offioe windows. Now you are connected
with over a thousand miles of railroad
and almost a hundred thousand miles of
telegraph wire. Two years moro and
twentv trains a dny will be swooping
through your city and every hour of the
twentv-four will resound with the shrieks
of their engines. Two years ago and our
oenstis barely told of olght hundred thou-

we shall double that figure I Do you think

tbat unnumbered thousands of people are

and all the North as Iho Paradise of in.
dtistry. Both regions are foroing their
most enterprising population upon us
and let but Ihe railroad connections be
made and the swarms that will find homes
hero will be bevond all calculation.
Our first communication will of course
be by the M. K. & T. as it connects with
the Central. But this will be a monopoly
but a short time. The rapid progress of
the Great Northern has been a surprise
and a wonder and its reoent praotical
absorption of the International has made
the plans of its far-seeing projectors
moro manifest. Within two years the
through connections will be made to Cai-
ro and Memnhis. and all Texas will seek
an outlet and all America 'nearly a road
hither over ita lines.
Again the Southern PaoifiJ after being
a prey for twenty years to the Philistines
appears to hare fallen into Intentional
hands and to bid tair to Deeome an aomai
faot at loft across our own territory and

Whether San Diciro or not is vory doubt
ful. Of that hereafter. This will also give
us an outlet and iulct to Vicksburg and
the Southern system of roads and let ail
Southern people in upon us by a feasible
route.
These communications and routes of
travel will open up this wonderful coun-
try and tarini a wonderful population op

all that ara ireneral. W hat about the epi
zootic ? Well there ia a treat deal of
humbugging in thie world and tne epi-
lootio has stven it a onance. niua ui h
for a moment. A million horses have had
tha diatemner in the last two months and
have been medicated by a hundred thou-
sand quacks and still hardly any have
diedl Fearful disease quotha I So is
health I Let as many drenohes and pur-
ees and blanketings and ateamings and
other quaokeries be applied to as many
well horses and as many would die as
have been killed now. What then? Blan-
kets aro a humbug at all times ; ateam-
ings are worse and plenty of fresh air is
worth them all. I have had three horses
affected and have used them right along
same as ever giving them an open shed
tn aland in In mild weather and a olose
clean stable with a plenty of good bed
ding in oold and they have not even anown
a rough coat ; appetite fine playfulness in
the lot unrestrained and working quali-
tiee excellent for sick horses. It is a
very mild form of tho ordinary distem-
per so called and should be treated in
the same way. ' -
Price of cotton? Good. What will It
be? Well as my friend Paul would siy
having oonsulted the spirits regarding
gold first it will go up and then it will go
down or via verta oreerm vice and it
don't make much difference which. Cot-
ton is a good thing to bet on it ia so fair
for both sides I and one thinfr is certain
that the average speculator in it cannot
average more than five years of business
life. It is sure to ruin whoever thinks be
can manage it.- As to the present affairs
firteen cents in gold pays very well. It
may go up to eighteen ; it is likely lo go
down to twelve. In Ihe first ease those
who hold may gain ; in the second those
who hold will be ruined. At any rate
those who tell at fifteen are esfo and in
the longrun will have money lo loan to the
others. Via trita via terta the tried way is
the safe way" and whenever yoa can get
