FRIDAY MORNING, AUGUST 8, 1S73.I Total Value of IlUnoii Property. Hon. Mr. Stadden, clerk in the Auditor's office at Springfield, estimates that the total assessed value of the State will amount in the aggregate to the handsome sum of $1,700.000,000. No inconsiderable sum for one State to represent, especially when assessments at the best are never fully reported.

Texas Cattle The Texas cattle disease is spreading in in Nodaway county, Mo. Already the loss there has been heavy. The peoole are organizing to check its course. Cattle from Kansas are not allowed to be landed from the cars. There is intense feeling on the subject.

The disease now prevails in Nodaway, DeKalb, Caldwell, Davics and perhaps other counties of North Missouri. A Comet- Prof. Hall, of the Naval Observatory, Washington City, observed the comet discovered by Barilly at Marseilles, France, July 27. The position, of the comet is as follows: Washington time, July 30, twelve hours, twenty-three minutes right ascension, one hour sixteen minutes and twenty- eight seconds, declination seven degrees and thirty-eight minutes south; motion small and to the southeast. on Donations.

The Chicago Post speaking of the common method of building railroads by obtaining donations therefor and afterwards allowing their managers to demand dividends thereon, adds "It is apparent enough that the charge of rates of transportation higher than would be necessary to yield dividends on actual cash invested, is an oppressive and outrageous swindle upon the people. No Respecter of Persons. Governors and cx-Governovs, it would appear from dispatches of the 1st Instant, are treated just like other people. Gov. Woodson, of Missouri, was arrested on the first in Kansas, under charge of violating the game law of that State and on the night previous ex-Governor Palmer's residence in Springfield was broken into by a gang of burglars, and a lot of hams, vegetables, canned fruit, were stolen.

No expense will be spared to make this the largest and moat successful fair ever held in Illinois. TUid Part? Movement. The editor of the Cincinnati Commercia who was formerly one of the most prom nenlleadersof the Liberal Republican part appears to hare become completely disguste with nig associates of the old Democrat party, and now contends that it is big time a third parly WM organized, jays "a third party is a symptom of pr gress. It affords a rallyinz-point for disaffected of the old parties, and sensib men are prone to be dissatisfied. The fire Soil party was a dreadful affliction to old Whigs and Democrats, butitbadprinc plea and a mission, nnditgrew continual! Every time its strength was tested an i crease of its power was manifested.

Tl time had arrived for the Whig party to di and the Free Sellers took the greater pa of it, and became the great Kepublica Party. Now the time has come for th Democratic parly to die. A third party needed to assist in its total destructio The Liberals organized and in the field wi answer the purpose. We must put them the field. They will not, we think, win grrat victory on their first appearance, they will define the conditioni of futu divisions, and will gain success when the have earned it; and as the' Whigs we enabled to make the choice between Free Soilcrs and Democrats, the Dcmocra can have the choice of becoming Republican or Liberals." The editor of the Commercial, howeve should remember that the circumstances this lime are very different from what the were when the Free Soil or Rcpublica party sprang into existence.

At that lim both the Democratic and Whig party we intensely conservative, and persistent year after year ignored the radical issu which the force of the advancing civilizati of the nineteenth century was irresistab forcing upon the public mind and the ganization of the Republican party, was necessity which could not be longer pos poncd. But the case is very different this time, inasmuch as the Republican pa ty has kepi up with the advancing spirit the age, and as fast aa one importan vital issue after another arose it met and satisfactorily settled, until ther is not one great want of the countr; which is not fairly and squarely include in ils platform. Heace, there is nothin left for the third party lo build upon excep mere negatives, which never have nor eve will lead any party on to victory. 1'he ol Whig party tried to get into power such a platform for thirty years, and durin all tout time never gained complete con trol of both the Executive and Legislativ branches of the Government at the sam time, and the Democratic party has bee striving for the last sixteen years on th same kind of a platform for power, and du ing that time has been growing weaker an weaker, until there is not sufficient vitalit left in it to die. The editor of the Commercial, and all wh may sympathize with him, may rest assure that there is no hope of the success any new part-y organization, so long as th Republican party continues to meet an satisfactorily settle the issues one by one a they may arise', as it has done ever since was organized.

The Cholera. There were two deaths by cholera at Lagrange, Kentucky, on the 31st but it is said that it has entirely disappeared from other Kentucky towns. But the Evansville Journal has received advices from Carmi, in this State, to the effect that the cholera had broken out there with fearful effect. Eight deaths had occurred in the twenty- four hours up to 1 o'clock, of the 31st making fourteen deaths since the cholera made its appearance about a week ago. A number of families have fled.

MILLER, Belle street. UPHOLSTERY. Liberal Reform Party- There was a great noise- made when the Liberal party of Missouri was formed, in regard to the radical reforms which would be brought when it got into power Well, owing to the blind infatuation of a large number of Republicans, and the united support of the Democrats and rebels of B. Gratz Brown, the Liberal candidate for elected and everybody looked for the promised reforms and retrenchments which would put to shame the acts of the Republicans; but instead of that the Missouri Republican, the originator of the new party, being the witness, de- poseth and saith, that, 'In our own State, we have been compelled to confess with humiliation and shame that the promises of reform consequent upon hurling the Republicans from power have failed of fulfillment." It mijht. also, with equal truth have instead of reform, the State, through the agency of that party, was brought to bankruptcy and the very brink of ruin.

The Supreme Court of the United State have in the case of the Rcadin Railroad vs. Pennsylvania (15th Wallace' Reports, p. 231) as follows: 1. The transportation of freight, or the subjects of commerce, is a constitulioi al parl of commerce ilself. 2.

A tax upon freight, transported from Stnte lo State, is a'regulation of 4 commen among the Slates. 3. Whenever the subjects, in regard which a power lo regulate coniinerce i asserted, are in their nature national, admit of one uniform system or plan, regulation, they are exclusively within th regulaling conlrol of Congress. 4. Transportalion of passengers merchandise Ihrough a Stale, or from one State to another, is of Ihis nature 5.

Hence a statute of a State imposing i tax upon freight, taken up within the Slat and carried out of it, or taken up without a Stale and brought within it, is repngnan to that provision of the Constitution of the United Stales, which ordains that ''Congress shall have power to regulate commerce with foreign nalions and among Ihe severa States; and with tribes." ''The above points," says the Springfielc Jqurnal, "are from the advanced sheets of Ihe 10th volume of Wallace's Reports. Ihey are not modified by the decision itself then the recent regulalions, concerning Iransportatton across the Stnte or a part it, from or to places outside of the State, rc- cenlfy made by Ihe Board of Railroad anc Warehouse Commissioners, may need some qualificalion. The queslion turns on that point, whether our legislative provision against "unjust discrimination" in freight tariffs is virtually a "tax" on commerce."

Particular attention will be paid to A Governor "We suspect," says the Chicago Post. "some practical joker has been scheming to give the country, and the State of Missouri in particular, a lesson npon the utter absurdity of the system of Executive pardons, as it usually operates. The ground of the suspicion is the fact that a few days ago tho Superintendent of the Workhouse in St.

Louis received from the Governor a pardon for one "William Mulligan, convicted at the April term of the Criminal Court." Upon examination and inquiry the Superintendent ascertained that there was no person the name of Mulligan In the institution, and, furthermore, that there had been no April term of the court, that Mr. Mulligan could not have'been sentenced thereat. The Governor.it appears, has been noiieS; and the plain deduction from the fact would seem to be that a mode of procuring pardons that renders Each a mbSe wberem the court which and the prison officers who hire the custody of criminals are not con- salted, and no opportunity is given the public to protest or approve, and no public authority IB notified of the Mnnot too quickly A Party. The Patrons of Husbandry, as they style themselves, of McLean county, met in convention at Bloomington, on the first and adopted a platform setting forth that while they have faith in the honesty and sense the masses of the old political parties, they believe them both to be so completely under the control of corrupt office-seekers and speculators that the people cannot hope for reform inside of them. They therefore ask the people to unite in the formation of a new party on the following platform: Protection to honest industry in all its branches.

Resistance to the encroachments of aggrc gated capital. Equal, exact justice to all classes. Special privileges to none. The control of railroad and other corpor- tions by national and State legislation. A tariff for revenue, but not for support of special interests.

Opposition to salary grabs. Economy in all the public service. No more land grants to corporations. Honesty and capacity to be the tests for public office. The convention then nominated a'full ticket for county offices, headed byTl.

Cinciana last year. The Cincinnati Commercial, Liberal publican, in speaking of it, remarks: "A chapter of political history of Impor tancc to the nation was made at Culumbu yesterday. A fair and full expression was given to the profound public disaalisfactio with the Republican, as.the administrate party, and with the Democratic parly a the opposition. A third party was in goo faith put in the field.

The stroke of bus ness done was of the most serious chara ter. A platform containing a great dei that was excellent was adopted. A tieki that is strong was nominated. No negotia lions were carried on. trading polit" cians were left out in the cold." The Enquirer (Democratic) of the sam city, takes an entirely difierent view of th subject.

says: sum up, the new party which come to us with a flourish of trumpets, is but weak and puny affair. The megrc couvcn lion, the which its actio is received, and the character and antece dents of its participants all go to prove tha the oft-repeated declaration that there wa a great popular demand for a new parl was but a delusion and a snare. It is a people's movement, and it will neve became a people's party. The manager through their platform, propose nothin that cannot be obtained through the regeu erated, liberalized aud modernized Demo cratic party. We look upon this movemen now as but an insurrection among tl quartermasters and contractors of th Democratic parly.

Their efforts be mainly directed against that organi tion, but it will rise superior to their a saults. is understood that the founder of the new party ask no affiliation or operation with the Democratic party. Le ua see to it then lhat they do not receii any. Tlie Democracy on the (1th of Augn cau nominate a good ticket and adopt platform which will be indorsed by ever true reformer in the State. With our con sent the ticket nominated on that day wi contain the name of no man nominated a Columbus yesterday.

u.vti roic Atrocities of the Spanish Insurgents blADaio, July 31. A corresponden writing about the massacre at Alcoy gay the women played as conspicuous a part i the massacre as they did in Paris durin the commune. Nothing iphich occurred i Paris even in the last frenzied agony desperation and baffled fury, at all ap proaches this brutal massacre. When Ih Minister of Foreign Affairs was asked Cortes for a statement of what really Imp tiened. he declared that the honor Chamber, of the.tountry and of th republic, he was obliged to refrain fron, mentioning all that happened.

Acoordin to his account the insurrectioa was gotten up by the Internationalists. It commencet a strike or a series of strikes. Th workmen demanded a large rise in thei wages, as much as 50 per and when t.was refused, left their work and assumet. a very threatening attitude, interfering everywhere with work and spreadinj ilarm among the peaceful inhabitants 'specially those belonging to Ihe well-do-d' classes. The resignation of.the town counci ftnd substitution of a council of their own nomination followed.

Mechanical Labor- Robert Dale Owen says that in 1835 his ither put down the aggregate of al force as equal to the labor of adults, and estimates by recent nglish statisticians, brought up to the resent time, vary from 500,000,000 to 00,000,000. We may safoly assume' the lean of those osely approximating the ''truth to-day. ut the popuiatioh'of the world is, in ound numbers, aiid the sual estimate of the productive manual bpr of a country is thai it dots not. exceed lat of a number of adult workmen equal one-fourth of iln nopulatlQu. Thus tho aily labor of 300,000,000 adults represents le productive manual power of the world.

follows that Great Britian and Ireland's boT-saving machinery equals, In produc- ve action, the manual tabor power of worlds as" populous as this.

The continued thundering and rumbling and clattering of locomotives and trains of cars that pass directly in front of this hotel every day, and which sounds in the ears of every boarder naturally enough, says what a gigantic concern ia the Baltimore and Ohio railroad; and to one like myself, born and raised in the immediate vicinity of its origin and projection, and who has watched its onward march of improvement from nothing to an immense it excites astonishment and wonder. The building of this road was begun in 1828, or about that time it was surveyed aud located from Baltimore to Wheeling, on a circuitous line of 379 miles of road, with a subscribed capital of three million dollars, a very large capital at that time. But the magnitude of the enterprise was so stupendous that it elicited the prediction of many (supposed lo bo) wise men, of a great failure and disaster to stockholders. But the work began and toiled and struggled through obstacles and difficulties and severe trials until completion of the first stretch of 379 miles. The first object of the company was the better development of the coal region in the Alleghaney mountains.

Next to that was the trade of Ohio for the city of Baltimore, and for which Philadelphia was a competitor. Wheeling was rather high up on the Ohio river for a crossing of the road on that stream. But the influence of Wheeling secured the subscription of the desired amount of stock, and so tho road wa? built from Baltimore to Wheeling, 379 miles. In the course of time, afterwards, as the business of the road increased and enlisted the subscription of new stock, the company diverged from Benwood, a station on the road four miles below Wheeling, and crossed the Ohio river at Benwood, and Bellair, Ohio, and built a road to Uolumbus, Ohio, and subsequently on to Indianapolis, Indiana. Cincinnati was a coveted boon in the programme of the road, and arrangements were made with another road to connect at Columbus and run by way of Xenia to Cincinnati.

This was rather a circuitous route, to overcome which the Baltimore and Ohio railroad company built a road direct from Bellair to Cincinnati, including the Marietta and Cincinnati road, which the Baltimore and Ohio company have leased for a long term of 99 years, and doubtless, will eventually own it. And now they have a branch road via Sandusky, on to Chicago. Another branch from Cumberland, 50 miles east of this point by way of Connellsville, Pa. To Pittsburgh another branch diverges from Uarper's Ferry and traverses the valley of the Shenandoah yet ber- river up to Stnnntrm and on to Salem; another diverges 10 miles east of Cum land, and runs to Rotnney and these are not all it3 branches. The traffic of the road is simply wonderful.

1 sat one day on the platfora in front of the hotel and counted 213 box cars that passed eastward in day. How many passed in the night I don't know. Besides these, are the cattle cars, hog cars coal cars and platform cars, without number, so far as my vigilance could comprehend; and is many trains go west as east. One singular feature of the carrying trade is, that coal goes by here in both directions, east and west. This is owing to the different qualities of coal and Its peculiar adaptation, to different purposes, such as generating gas, tempering iron and steel, making glass, burning porcelain and stone china and various other uses.

The box cars goin cast carry all kinds of country produce and merchandise, the cattle, hog, and coal cars, of their own kind, the platform cars carry lumber, stone, brick, heavy timbers, shingles, shooks, etc. These shooks are made at various stations along the road by coopers, who employ many hands, and make good profits out of the Shpoks-are simply white oak boghead staves; they are dressed, set up, and the hogshead made complete, then they knnct down the staves, sumber them and every hogshead is done up in a bundle. Thej go to BnUiDunre and utc frpm there" to the West India Islands and other sugar and molasses growing regions, were they are filled with sugar and molasses and shipped to diffcient parts of the world. Many of them come back ngain the Dnitcd States, and I would not wonder if some of the same could now be founA in some of our wholesale grocery houses in Alton.

THE LAMAB. Some of the Object to Farther Payments on Their Part Until Certain Matters are Straight- emed out- A bill was filed in Ihe Supreme Court yesterday, by Samuel II. Melvin, of Springfield A. C. Vandewater, of Pana; John Heck, of Lockport, and J.

The document is of the most voluminous proportions, large enough to drive a journalistic law recruit to utter desperation. goes into the entire history of the Lamar Insurance Company. In the spring of 1871', when it suspended, the subscribed capital was and there were no losses that could deplete the treasury to any extraordinary extent.

It is charged that the losses were mostly due to the agreement, which gave II. W. Cushman and Isaac N. hardin, parties defendant to the present suit, 530 shares of stock, with '20 per cent, paid thereon, as a premium for their subscribing for 550 shares, representing on which they Plaintiffs insist that Cushman and Hardin are liable to assessment on the balance of the shares. It is further stated that tne company made 'ont certificates for the 550 shares, on which 20 per cent, was paid up, and handed them, as a gift, to the parties named that the paid in -by them was -taften back in small amounts, from time to time that the stock certificates were returned to the company and canceled that, in addition to the sum aforesaid, the same parties drew a further aggregate of $70,000, which was also applied to their use.

At that time Cushman was Treasurer, and llardin Vice President, both having active mnnagement of the affairs of the company. It is also alleged that when the company suspended, it held stock, notes and securities amounting to that, on December 31, 1870, the annual statement of the company showed that there was due to it on call 813,885.70, loaned to parlies connected with the corporation.

Afier dwelling at some length on the financial difficulties of the corporation, the plaintiffs conclude by showing that they are bcna fide stockholders who have paid their asssessmcnts: that they have never consented to the irregularity narrated in the bill; that the proceedings taken against the company have been by default, the officers taking no steps to defend the suit; that the stockholders are nearly all solvent and able to pay their assessments; and they pray that the Receiver suspend all proceedings until the money mailers, as stated in the bill are set to righls, and that all the defendanls indebted lo Ihe company be called to account.

AMBIGUOUS One of the most serious evils of legislation, at the present time, is the slovenly and careless manner which the laws passed by our Legislature are prepared.

So full of errors in grammar are they, often; so involved their sentences and so clumsy their entire construction, that it is almost impossible to tell exactly they what they mean. No sooner passed, than, owing to their ambiguity, a difference of opinion at once arises in the courts as to their meaning; and this difference of opinion is never reconciled the Supreme Court hag had its guess at tlie meaning and made a decision. It is safe to say that half the litigation now in progress Illinois could be settled at once, were the laws clear, brief, and constructed in accordance with the rules of syntax. At the time of the adoption of the Federal Constitution by the Continental Congress, a committee on Style and Composition was appointed whose business was to examine every section of the Constitution before its passage, and see that it was correctly constructed and clearly expressed the meaning designed. The result of that care is that the meaniay of the Constitution has never been called in question from that day to this.

Such a committee is the greatest need of our present Legislative bodies. But translating the lucubrations of some of our Legislators, from jargon into English. would be a task to make an angel weep. However, once accomplished, litigation would diminish judges' duties would become lighter, and lawyers' fees diminish. FROM THE DAILY OF FKIDAT.
