An Awful Disease-Glanders in
England.
From the London Sanitary Record.
The report of the Veterinary Department
of the Privy Council Office shows that
glanders increase every year, and further
confesses that the official returns are far
from giving a true indication of the num
ber of cases. In London it is very wide
ly spread, and some of the Durham
collieries seem to have suffered frightfully.
On one of them a miner has succumbed
to the disease, having been inoculated by
washing his hands in a cistern at which
an affected animal had drunk. If the
disease, be allowed to continue unchecked
we shall certainly hear of the loss of more
human life. Sanitary officials should use
their influence with local authorities to
have the
times, with the same results. So simple
and harmless a remedy ought to be in
general use. Prairie Farmer.

Dear Watchman : There is a deep and
widely-disseminated prejudice against strong
writing and thinking in other words, against
decision of character existing among a
class of our countrymen of whom more sensi
ble and hearty views of the realities of life
might be expected. Common and conven
ient as it may have been to declaim against
the evils of party-spirit cheerfully, admis
sible as must be tbe fact of its baneful in
fluence, I do most decidedly object to the
confusion of the terms decision and bigotry
so as to make them mean one and the same
think. It is a pity for these men that they
are not well enough acquainted with history

The Conservative party has no right, nor

Conservative party in North Carolina is sim

we confess much disgust, for we have hith

The present Constitution is a naisanee and

Now when tbe Convention meets next
year the people will have had seven years
bitter experience in which to learn the de
fects of the Constitution. Tbe changes
we propose to make, are such only as full
experience have demonstrated to be neces
sary. There ia not a shadow i f a fear of Fed
eral intervention. There are no threats that
General Grant will disperse the Convention.
Nor is there a shadow of a doubt as to
tbe legality of a Convention called by a two
thirds vote of tbe General Assembly. Not
even Governor Caldwell himself, were he
alive, would dare to refuse to recognize such
a Convention.
There are two nneotions. and only two, to
be considered ; first, whether the people
wish to change tbe Constitution, and second,
what ia the cheapest, quickest and rarest
way of accomplishing tea change. These
qnestiona are already decided. The changes
are needed, and tbe Convention offers the
surest, quickest and cheapest mode of mak
ing them.
The party takes the responsibility of
calling other Convention. The first thing
the people will be called npon to do will be
to elect delegates, The next thing will be
