Institute, June 23,18GS, said: "Every paper dollar now put out is a government false
hood,
for it claims to be worth more than its real value, and it goes about the country defrauding the laborer, the pensioner, the lil'eelianic'and the farmer."
Yet democrats tell you that their party is pledged to an unlimited issue ol' this currency, these "falsehoods" which go about "defrauding" the "laborer." Are they the poor man's "friend Beware mv countrymen. Stop and look at the party, its leaders, its record and its present purposes. If you will but do tliis, you will never by your voice or your votc'aid in putting into their hands vour country's life, but just now redeemed from them"through the tempest of fire and blood.
One more point and I am done. The real difficulty under which our Republican congress has had to labor in the conduct of our financial atl'airs, has grown out of, and been occasioned bv, the fact that our National faith and credit have been impugned and tainted. Upon this subject permit me once more to prove my statement by the highest democratic authority. Iloratio Seymour in his speech of June before referred to, uses these words: "Our paper money is not at par in coin because the .National credit is dishonored. "We tind right here the cause of our troubles, perplexilies and
National disgrace. Our credit is tainted, But for that we could borrow mouov, as

•..•.•.money would be good, and-old and silver to
would glitter in hands ot labor. But tor that fact there would be no question how the bonds are to be paid, and wo never should have heard of the greenback issue."
Those words are true, and iu them Seymour dealt his party a deadly blow. Who has brought*upon us this dishonor? "Who has laid upon 11s this "national disgrace?" From what party has come all this talk about repudiation ?—talk, which is to-day damning our faith and honor as a Nation, throughout the civilized world? Answer me you democrats, who during all the dark and bloody'years of the war, spent your breath in decrying our currency, and tainting our faith and credit with your infamous slanders! "NVho has "tainted" our credit? C. L. Vallandigham, when he stumped Ohio with his twenty dollar gold piece in one hand and a twenty dollar greenback in the other, heaping his venom and his ridicule upon your currency. And 3L D. MANSON, when he went, through your own county playing Vallandinghain on a small scale, with a silver quarter in 011c hand and a twenty-five cent "check" in the other, calling one "Democratic money" and the other "Itepublican money." "These, and such as these, are the men who have tainted your National credit, impugned your National faith, and brought upon your country disgrace and dishonor. Two weeks ago tonight a Democratic speaker, on this lloor, uttered, as a proud boast, the following sentiment: "When the Democratic party even moves under its shroud, the money market trembles.'''—Aye. that it may, and with good reason, but is that anything to be proud of? The. bravest man in all the land trembles at the hiss of tiie copperhead hid in the grass at his feet, and why? Because he. recognizes the presence of a secret and deadly enemy, and so may the "money market"—the' representative of the faitli, the credit and the commerce of our landtremble at the. movements of its deadliest. enemy, the Democratic party. In all the dark record of the Democratic party, from 1801 to the present time, history will'record against it, 110 words more deeply damning than these.—"When the democratic party moved the money market trembled.'' It is the same, old tight in Avhich we are engaged—a tight for the life of our Nation, the honor of our flag. Think, live and act, my country-men, in fullview of the magnitude of the' interests at stake. "With firm un-

A WHITE MAX'S GOVERNMENT.
The great battle cry of the Democracy is, "this is a white man's government, and we must keep it pure from the taint of the African." But like most eveiything else Democratic, this cry is based on an absolute sind undeniable falsehood. South Carolina is the only State in the Union whose Constitution originally excluded the negro from voting, and at the time of the adoption of the National Constitution, five of the thirteen States made no distinction between white and black men at the polls. Black men, as well as white, in those live Stales voted upon the! Gen. Grant question as to the ratification of the Constitution, and but for the negro vote in some of these States the Con-
stitution might never have been adop-

the Union, while a class of white

having the negro used as an element ing his Adjutant General to Washto give undue power to the Southern ington to stop the drapt a man who had no kind words for a returned veteran regiment which had left eiirht
slave-holders and to degrade the "mud-sills—the small fisted farmers and greasy mechanics of the North." It was all right with them so long as the white men were allowed to vote for the negro, but the moment the negro is permitted to vote for himself, the cry is raised that "this is a white man's government." It. was by virtue of the negro basis of representation that the Democraic party was so long unabled to control the government. The negro power iu the hands of slave-holders elcctcd

Ik his speech at Charleston, Wade Hampton said "I yield to none in devotion to that lost cause for which wc fought. Never shall I admit that the cause itself failed, and that the principles which gave it life were therefore wrong. Never shall I brand the men who upheld it so nobly as rebels or traitors. Never shall I ignominiously seek safety or base promotion by a dastardbv denial or treacherous betrayal of it."
Having thus renewed his adhesion to the policy and principles of the horrid rebellion, Wade Hampton urged all his hearers to vote for Horatio Sevmour.

THE CATTLE DISEASE.
The subject which at present most thoroughly interests every farmer and stock-owner, and which also comes home with some startling questions to those who help to consume beef, is the prevailing cattle disease whick is sweeping off the herds
our Western prairies, and which has even entered our own county, in an alarming and unaccountable manner. The subject has appeared to most of our citizens as something remote and not of personal interest, but now that it has made its appearance in our midst, it begins to come home to every one.
In regard to what Ihe disease is it is generally conceded to be Spanish fever, contracted from Texas cattle. Prof. Gamgee, Professor of Albert Veterinary College, London, who is enlployed by the United States to investigate this cattle plague, says in defining the nature of this malady it is not difficult to state what it is not, and says it is not malignant typhus,
or infectious disease of the character of our European epizorties. We were shown a letter tlie other day by W.H. Durham, Esq., from an intelligent physician of Ohampaigi'ie county, Illinois, who was in company with Professor Gamgee at the time lie was holding a post mortem examination. The letter was written to Mr. J. B. Fordice, a large cattle dealer near Russelville, and contains some very interesting facts. The letter says where Professor Gamgee has examined stock in Illinois or Indiana, the malady has occurred only where Texas steers have been pastured, and never beyond the limits of the ground traversed by the Southern herds.
The Texas cattle are healthy, though they convey the poison or poisons from the Texas woodlands or pastures, which, disseminated over the Western prairies, destroys your native stock. The animals thus contaminated have, in many and probably the majority of instances, suffered and succumbed in the districts where the.N have ben grazed, but a great number have been sent
and the Eastern cities, either to die of the disease or be slaughtered as human food.
He said he was called upon"a fortnight ago to answer the question whether, if any of the flesh of sick animals happened to be sold, it wa« probable that human beings might suffer? He unhesitatingly asserted that the meat was not poisonous, and was incapable of injuring human beings.
He said it would be impossible, to give all the facts elicited in a short letter. Concerning the symptoms of the disease, he said that they were varied, as many of the cattle, from the beginning of the attack until the time of death, are quiet and in a lethargic state, evincing
pain while others arc very uneasy, constantly niOA'ing about and lowing, until thev drop down exhausted, where they remain until dead.
The following symptoms are
110-
t.iced in nil case? that have fallen under the writer's observation In the beginning of lic disease there ia an uncertainty of *tep and trembling,! showing an inability to remain firmly standing on the fec-t, and with a disinclination to move, the head drooping. The appetite does not seem to:be impaired, nor is there any unusual thirst the skin is alternately hot and cold the secretion of milk is diminished, and about the fourth or fifth day a remarkable change in the appearance of the animal takes place. The abdominal walls are shrunken, the animal becoming lean, breathing quick and short, and do not have strength enough to raise themselves, and Avhcn raised cannot remain in that position any length of time. The secretion of milk decreases daily, the secretion continuing until death, and is of a. thick creamy character. The secretion of urine is also changed, the animal having a constant desire to urinate, succeeding, however, in ejecting only a small quantity of bloody urine. The fieces are discharged with great effort, and arc dry and bare.
Iu this state the diseased animal lingers for a shorter or longer time, until it finally, expires under appearance of exhaustion. The duration of the disease is from two to ten days.
The lacts as above set forth would lead to the conclusion that the disease had its origin in the Texas cattle that had been taken from the cattle-yards, to graze in the vicinity,- and the only preventive is the entire isolation and separation of such cattle from all others.
