L. W. McCORD, PROPRIETOR! THURSDAY, NOVM'IiKli 7, 1S75. General Itesnlt. At the late hour ac receive the news it is impossible for us to give letiiils.

The dispatches from the "Northern Stages show that Grant has carried all of them by iiierea-ed ma jorities. New York goes for him by 10.000 votes, and bin jmpular majori ty in the Uuion not less thau half ii million. In onr Stile election we cannot pive finite results, t)iiirh it is certain that Mavnard is elected. Ib-own is elected by a reduced Ii -rjoriJy. In the Congressional district Whitthornc is nhead only by small majority as far heard from.

His election is doubtful. In tli Senatorial district Smithson is nhfld and elected beyond a doubt. Kr Floater Hamilton is probably ci'-ctcd. While for Representative this county the vote is very close. i 8 votes head with district "No.

1 to hear from, which wi'l probably give him a small ma jority. Onr Candidates. The candidates we advocated in the late campaign are probably deft a ted, except Gov. Brown, who wis our first and only choice for the sition he aspired to. Mr.

was not the man ol our choice, by any means, but he came before Vie country as the candidate of tin ouv organized opposition to radi lirm. He came as the friend of conciliation, as a compromise be tween the opposing sections. We accepted and supported him in faith as such, and would re juice at his election. We supported Gen. Cheatham, not because he was a democrat, not because he was a Confederate soldier or a General, nr even because he was the demo erotic nominee; but because he was the chosen or nominated candidate uh Mr.

Greeley was of the only organized opposition to radicalism. We were sincere and honest in our advocacy of his claims, and will rejoice if through him the radicals Lave been defeated. Mr. F. 51.

Thomasson, proprietor of the stage lines centering at Dyers-LnrT. now lias under consideration the project of establishing a triweekly mail route from Dycrsburg Memphis. The proposed line is to run by Double Bridges, Dry Hill, Ripley and Covington. The Memphis Appeal says: "A few complamts have been made dining the past day or two of the presence of the horse disease in Memphis. Whether it is the same epizootic plague that has allectcd the animal in New York and the North docs not conclusively appear." The Titusvillc Tress tells the story of a nocturnal sercnader who sang: the mo-boon Is shi-hl-hi-ning o'er the la hake, Oil the hen I'll tlii-hi-hi hi ink of thee ee ee The n.usie aroused a dog about the size oi" flour barrel, and the musician id doing as well as could be expected.

A jdge in Charleston, West Vir ginia, has granted an injunction to prevent the building of a colored Baptist church there, on the petition of citizens representing that the worship of the negroes is "boisterous, loud and extravagant, and wuuld consequently be a disturbance to the neighborhood." If our business men generally would take more interest in public affairs things would go on better. Davenant truly remarks In his essay upon the IVilance of Power, "There is no surer mark thnt a covernment is near its utter destruction than when the people are observed to be careless and unconcerned at a time when they are presse I and encompassed with dangers of the highest uutiuv. This state tf lethargy is t-ut an apoplectic, synipton as is commonly the forerunner of death to the body politic." If those most inteicaled in good government leave thu election of public officers and the control of public affairs to mere political and their fid-lowers, they ought not to be sur pi iM-d at any amount of curruptiou and maladministration thai may prevail. Courier Journal. "What Kditors Have to Bear.

I ft I.ii'i Ilnnlsville and Nashville Railroad. The ITuntsvilie and Nashville 1 2 ail road chartered March under the general law of Ala. bama, will cor.in.ence at Iluntsville run in a north-western direction, and intersect the and Decatur Railroad at or near the State line between Tennessee and Alabama say at l'ulaski. This is an important line of road to Iluntsville, for several reasons: First, it will develop the north western part of the county.

Second, it will enable parties going to the western markets to reach Pulaski in about the same time they now reach Decatur. Third, it will save to the mere-hat ts of Iluntsville a vast amount of expense in the way of freight. The charges from Decatu to Iluntsville, over the M. it C. Railroad, amount to about the same as from Louisville to Decatur.

Thus the merchants of Iliinlsville would, in ten years, savr enough in the way of freights to pay for the entire construction of the road from Huntsviile to l'ulaski. -r-Nor is this all; it will. "bring a vast amount of additional trade to Iluntsville, which now goes toother markets. The speedy construction of this line of road will bring the East Alabama and Cincinnati Railroad to Iluntsville; otherwise it will run up to Woodville, and thence north to Rock Spring, or to Win Chester, Tenn. This deflection would be ruinous to the future prosperity of Iluntsville.

This i3 a matter in which the Louisville, Nash ville and Great Southern Railroad Co. is vitally interested. Let it tap their road at Pulaski, via Iluntsville, it will be a po wit ful feeder. Let it go ihc other route, to Winchester and Cincinnati, and it will be a formidable rival. There would be but little difference in the routes from Nashville to Montgomery in the rival roads.

A Narrow Gunge road from Iluntsville to Pulaski, about forty miles on an air line, can be built and equipped for $140,000 at the outside cost, $300,000. Iluntsville and Madison county, Klkton and Pulaski and Giles county, can build it, and it is to their in teres to do it. It will be the best investment they ever made. The road eventually will be extended North-west through the counties of Lawrence, Lewis, Perry, Decatur and Carrol, to Huntingdor, Tenn where it will intersect the roads already built from that point to St Louis and Chicago. Thus tapping the Tennessee river below all obstruction, which throws a vast amount of freight upon the road from the Tennessee, Cumberland, Ohio and I'per Mississippi tributaries, and when finished to Huntingdon would open up an air line from St.

Louis via Iluntsville to Rrunswick and Savannah on the Atlantic seaboard. This is the great desideratum with all of tlie Western Cities, to the nearest and cheapest route to the Atlantic seaboard. This road will accomplish it. It is conceded by distinguished civil engineers, that Narrow Gunge roads can be operated for about half the expense of the broad guage roads, that they are capable of carrying double the amount of live weight to the dead weight, whereas the broad guigc carry double the amount of dead weight to the live weight; then the friction and the wear and tear of the broad guage is much greater than that of the nar row, and will, as a matter of course, last much longer than the broad guage. Nothing can save Iluutsville from retrogression but to make it a Railroad Centre, hich, together with her great natural advantages, will make her a great man ufacturLig and prosperous city.

From the Louisville Courier-Journal. Scarcely any event of recent occurrence has been watched with so much interest as the rapid spread of the epizootic, or epihippic, disease, which first appeared in the city of Toronto, Canada, a few weeks ago, and which has since lhcn extended its ravages throughout the New Dominion and the Northern and Noith-eastcrn cities of the United States, prostrating nearly all the horses in the places which it has visited, and causing a general obstruction of business and immense personal inconvenience from the ineapacit' of the' animals to perform their accustomed work.

Rumors from day to day have been circulated that the pest had appeared in this city. These rumors have risen partly from excitement and partly from the resemblance of other diseases to the one the approach of which is so much dreaded by horsemen. We are able positively to state that up to last niilht the disease had not visited Louisville in the form which it has done so "much damage in othei cities. The complaint is not by an3-means a new one. as it has made frequent ravages in Europe, and for several years past has been more or less prevalent in various sections of the United States.

Inthe year 1 Sua it made its appearance in the stables of one of the largest omni bus proprietors of Philadelphia, and some nine horses died in about two weeks. According to many of our best local authorities It prevailed here in a slightly modified form during the latter half of the war. The disease is known to the veterinary profession as epizootic catarrh, or influenza. Its symptoms are so various in different animals, no two cases being precisely alike, that a variety of opinions are current concerning it and its nature, and, as a consequence, various oth er maladies, such as catarrh, bronchitis, pnuemonia, distemper, and quinsy, are oftea confounded with it Some years ago horsemen were in the habit of calling the complaint pink-eye distemper, and many re garded it as incurable; but no other disease yields more readily to proper ticatment It commences with a slight watery or thin mucous discharge from the nobtrils; matter collects in the inner ct rncr of the eyes; the eye-lid on the inner side assumes a slight j-ellowish-rcd color; the pulse becomes feeble, with occasional paralysis of the hind ex tremitics; the membrane of the nose becomes reddened, and fur ther symptoms are sore throat, ex eessive debility, hard cough, heart sometimes violently agitated, flanks heaving, constipation of the bowels, and feet sometimes hot. This de scription of the symptoms is from the best authority, and is the result of actual observation.

Ml(. ALATANDKK II AltTilll.J., veterinary surgeon, is sure that the Canadian disease hns not reached here. He thinks it improbable thzt it will do so. He bases his opinion on the fact that it has previously prevailed ia the North and East, while, to the best of his information, the South and West have escaped Should it come, he has little doubt that the visitation will be much lighter than in the North, as it will decrease in virulence as it moves South. He considers that the malady has been aggravated iu the North, owing to the crowded condition of the larger cities necessitating the keeping of a large number of horses in cellars and sunk stories, without proper ventilation whereas the stables here are more airy and healthy; also that ihc fatality has been there iuereased by the working of ani mals while sick.

He is satisfied that, tinder any circumstances, the inconvenience will be slight, owing to the large number of mules employed on the street railroads and for other purposes these animals being generally exempt from attacks of the complaint He does not think it possible that the pest can appear without its first being at Cincinnati, Indianapolis or St Iou-is. Should it arrive, there will be no question of its presence, as numbers of horses will be attacked simultaneously. The disease no doubt exists here in its sporadic form he had a very marked case recently but in the stables under his care fewer horses are suffering from the disease of the respiratory organ than is usual at this season of the year. Scientific men have not arrived at any decided conclusion as to whether the contagion is prop agated by germs in the atmosphere or not, nor as to whether disinfect ants will destroy euch germs, but Mr. ILsrthiil thinks it well to use them.

However, above all things, due attention should le paid to having clean, and the horses feed properly regulated. MA Jolt e. Bumow Udievcs it possible that the epihippic will come, but it will be milder in its attacks as it moves South. He thinks that there should be no great inconvenience, if are kept clean, preventitives used, and cases properly treated as soon as they apjear. He ha extensive ex porience of the disease during the war, when Louisville was never quite free from it during 1 and '4.

Of the larje number of horees which reached here from Nirth. 'iht out of were ruote less severely attacked ith it a few days I in! ...5.. contrncted in the ears. Several were infested, and the disease was carried into the country. Much money being made by horse trading at the time, and more absorbing topics occupying the public attention comparatively little was said about the matter.

He pursued the following course of treatment: First, gave from a pint to a quart of linseed oil; next, put on the tongue common tar, thickened with salt; when dose was swallowed, repeated the process several times, and then rubbed the throat with a strong penetrating ointment, so as to bring unhealthy matter to the surface. Where the legs were cold, bandaged and pnt on a sufficient quantity of clothing. Fed at first with bran mash or other soft feed, in hich was stirred a small quantity of James condition powders. As the disease abated, cornmeal or bruised oats were added. lie was careful to keep hay and straw away from the manger.

T. horse got well in about eight ('ays, generally. Dr. Girard, who attended the United States Government horfecs, bled and purged them, but lost about four out of ever- five which he treated in that way. Mules arc much less liable to be affected with the epihippic than horses, the proportion of the former attacked being not more than two out of each ten subjected to the disease.

He has great faith in disinfectants for preventing or keeping down the complaint He would recommend whitewash and carbolic acid. For the Citizen. Wc stood by the hearth, loath yet to part, To speak the saddest of words fare-well, A new, glad hope was thrilling my heart, A new, sweet charm was weaving its spell. Tender was the light that shone in her eye, Warming her cheeks with a soft resy hue, Her voice as low as the Zephyr's soft sigh, Fell on my heart as gentle as dew. Feeling that morning, as we stood by the hearth, How cheerless my future would be, Without the of Ler dear presence henceforth.

I asked for a boon priceless to me. She tKk fram the mantle a faded bo-quet, AVfiich her own fair hand had put on, And thoi'gh 'twere a pity to mar the display, She gave uie a Bachelor's button Though wither'd its stem 'twa3 no faded flower, It jietals still red with shining white tips, But the hope in my heart faded out from that hour, And the sweut old story died on my lips.
