JOHN M1NCR BOTTS.
III! Vlrvri oa tbe Palltleal Bltwatlo.
Tbe Brooklyn 7hiort publishes a comninriica
tion from gentleman wbo a lew dajs sines hd
a lone talk wild John Minor Bolts in that city,
and deemed the conversation worth reporting.
We make a tew extracts:
What do you suppc-fe, sir, to be the ulterior
purpose of the Southern politicians It succoful
In the coming canvass f" lie replied: "Repu
diation of the national debt, disfranchisement
ol the tieuroes, and if It could be accomplished,
their le-cnslaveojent mieht be attempted, and it
not, tbon to apply the mouey that should go to
the payment of the debt, to payment tor the
negroen."
"Don't you think their ulterior purpose Is In
dependence T"
"No," Dir. Botts promptly replied; "they can
Indulge in 110 such extravagant hallucination
tbouph they undoubtedly would if toe? ha t the
means ot ctttublit-hiuK or maintaining their Inde
pendence, but the possession of political power
and the control of the country will cover every
aspiration they have."
"Suppose luo orih should say to them to
morrow, We have demonstrated to you the
power of this povernment; we have vindicated
the integrity ol the Cou'ti'iition, and we so no
advantage that could result to either section to
continue together In ibis state of eternal hos
tility, to v htch we. think separation is preterable.
Theietorepoj we arc no longer ouo people; we
give you leave to go, but we do not consent to
recognize you ns a iia'ion of people, but leave
you to sbitt lor yourelv"s as best you can, with
a warning in udvnuce tbut we siiull nold totdily
to two of your own favorite cardinal dugmits,
the Oatend Manifesto and the Monroe Docirin,
cither or both of which we shall en orce un very
slight provocation, and if you are aiiin cou
quered, you will be held in the condition of
territories belonging to the United States.
Think you they would desire to go ?"
"Hut," I replied, "what does Wise mean by
saying that the tonl worJs of the Fourteenth
street platform are a lie in saying th u reces
sion Is dead; and what do'Ja Cobb, Wise, Vance,
Toombs and others uieau by saying that, if Sey
mour is elected, all ihey have tought tor will be
attained ? Is not Seymour a non-coercionist al
heart?"
Mr. Bolts replied: "Oh, as to Vatico and Wlso
and loombs and Cobb, and that class of men
What they hay does not amouut to anything.
They cons itute a clas of political malcontents
who do all their naming belore the war comes
on. Their took is to stir up the passions ot the
people to prepare tor wor, aud when the war
comes on, it it comes at all, they 'watch' and
prav' whilst others do the fighting."
"What oo you think ot Mr. Seymour's rela
tions and a Hi n Hies to the South?"
"I have no do ibt that Mr. Seymour Is at heart
In full sympathy with the worst enemies of the
countrj ; his whole course during the war
proved that very conclusively ; but when you
a?k me what these men meau by sayiog ull they
fought for would be attained by Seymour's
election, 1 can only say that I never stop to
inquire; or care for what men say who talk Irom
passions ot their own, or only to excite the
passions of oilier", and all such vaporing goes
for nothing but loose talk, better suited for
years not bo mature. The men you speak of,
and who talk in this way about war, fire,
brimstone, and last ditches, have always
proved to be holiday soldiers parlor
knights, who don't Oo much of the
fighting when It comes to the piuch, and are
' not such leaders as the people are likely to
follow. You don't hear Lee, Johnston, Long
street. Beauregard, or even Forrest, who is now
acting the part ot a man returned to his senses,
talk in this way, an t a beautiful army they
would have with such men at its head. I
think if it were postib'e to cheat the people
again into a desire lor war, and they went to
the held and found Lee. Johnston, and the rest
of their trusted men not there, when you called
the roll next morning you would find the great
Army would turn up missing. Why, do you
suppose Davis would ever be gotten into such a
scrape again ?
. "Tbis war-talk Is mainly confined to the old
politicians who so foolishly threw away the
power they once held, aud now ask the country
to go to war to reinstate them in the hih
S laces they chose to throw away, but can never
old again.''
I replied to this that those "politicians'' led
the people into eecession before, and that I
believed the desire lor separation to extend
almost universally even among the poor and
ignorant.
TEE CATTLE PLAQUE.
Important Report or the New York Sani
tary UoniuiUlli,
At a meeting of the New York Board of
Health held l.wt evening au important report of
the Sanitary Committee in legatd to the pre
vailing cattle disease was read. The following
is an extract:
"In view of the rapid spread of the malignant
disease that has burst forth as an epidemic
among herds of caltie in certain portions ot 1111
nois and Indiana, whence the beet is supplied
to the Metropolitan District of New Yoric, and
the most populous portion of the Eastern aud
Middle states tbis Board of Health has en
deavored promptly to do whatever lies in its
power to prevent the introduction of such cattle
and to exclude all such beef irom the markets
in this district. And however greatly it is re
gretted that farmers and the holders ot the
infected aud sickly herds must sutler personal
losses and Inconvenience, the net of bringing
forward and offering any such auimals for loot
must be regarded as a very gross offense against
the lives of our fellow-beings. The investiga
tions made by scientific aud experienced officers
of this Board have lully confirmed the opinion
- that the liesh of theec dikeosod animals cau
not safely bo used lor food. The intormation
now belore us clearly shows that until some
proof to the contrary is obtained, the malignant
disease which has been brought eastward from
Illinois aud Indiana, should be regarded and
treated as an Infectious fever or plague. The
transportation of any sick or infected cattle
from the sickly districts to other States should
be prohibited. The offering of any such dis
eased animals, or any portion of their flesh, for
sale for lood within the Metropolitan Dls.rict of
New York will be regarded as a culpable offense
against the sanitary ordmauces relating to
markets and food articles, aud will be punished
with the heaviest penalties the law provide,
lio relaxation ot thin order of the Uourd can be
allowed.
The Metropolitan Boaid of Health earnestly
recommends thai, upjii every lino ot railway
upon which cettle are bong, or have recently
been transported from 1'lmois, ca-tward, thero
shall be a suitable applicat oo of disinfectants.
What JJisinftctanta to Use and Vom Tttey Ala;
be Applird. Carbolic acid is the only one to
rely upou. Use the crude and cheap fluids
known as heavy oil of coal tar, or the conl
luriuplf. iir.on 8rtls. na'bs. and all the drip
pings and manure. The cheapest kind ot
parTmlie. acid will be best upon the floor aud
sides of cattle cars. There should be a com
niptp. matino- or wash of tbese sprinkled over
the entire surfuce that is to bo disiu-
lected. Oiounds and paths fhould first receive
a tbin coating of quicklime, anil upou this
sprinkle the heavy oil of tar from a common
watering pot. The floors and sides ot foul cars
should be thoroughly moistened with carbolic
acid. It mav be applied with sprinkler or
bnuh. Mauure benps aud dreppmsa from
WPKtem cattle should be carelully disinfected
with a sulliclent quantity of quicklime and
heavy oil or crude acid. A bairei or two to the
n( "linavv nil . or of aoi.dco.-tl tar would
v... o ,.n',,.w.,,i nnniititv: and a Dint of carbolic
jtri.l diluted in llltv parts water, would sullicu
r. u QivUiin hoiwt i. in tie car.
t. 'ly.i.nna if thiri 11U11T11112 envs: The cattle
plague has about died out at Couiiuujipaw, for
the reason that but few cattle are lett. Our
rr,r.rtf.T. unticed h. bu lock that bad oeeu
slaughtered In the jur is yesterday, probably
because he was down before the men had lime
to drive him to the abattoir. Little is doinir in
the slaughter-house, and the wtiolu place up
Dears as though hie hud takeu a vacV.lon. V
lnlectants have been freely U'cd, and some parts
ot the abattoir smell very much like the Mori; lie.
Many who pretend to be well intormed suy that
the i5is' ue will scon puss mwav, as they cousi
der that ovt i lie;tiiuu has had more to do with
that ticks are the sole cause of this disease, for
they cay that the cattle take them into
their stomachs as horses do bo's.
The truth of this theory is doubtful, for in
Southern Illinois aud Missouri as well as in all
the .Southern States, no one ever knew of such
a thing. These ticks are common in the South
west, as well as several other kind. They ate
of all sizes from the smallest visible speck to a
large pea. Ihe larger ones are the most trou
blesome, for tbey fasten upon cattle when small,
and there they stay for weeks, with their heads
buried in the flesh, sucking and and biting con
stantly urril they swell to large as to be unable
to move. There Is not the leost doubt but that
they torment the poor brutes until they are
almo t wild with pain. When three or four of
the ordinary wood-ticks get on a person they
leave burning sores that stay lor weeks and
oftentimes longer if one' blood Is impure. A
week ago the infected cattle at Communipaw
were covered with the largest sattle ticks, which
nvght easily have been scraped off with garden
hoes. The around floors of the yards were lite
rally ttudded with the huge grey ticks, which
must have been weeks in accumulating. To say
that cattlrt eat these ticks, which are as large as
beans, is ridiculous.
There seems to be no reason why drovers
should make light of the plairue and say that it
Is rapidly (iUappcarin;, whilp but few cattle are
in the yards. It, after the Western droves are
allowed to come through, the disease dimin
ishes, then we may have grounds for congratu
lation. Many conflicting accounts have been
given by drovera touching the history aud char
acter of this disease. 1'iolcssor Gamgee says
that it is contagious. There is doubtless much
guessing on boih sides. A Communipaw gen
tleman, who is conversaut with the cattle busi
ness, says that the disease originates spontane
ously, where a large number are confined with
in a small space. The amount ot beat which Is
thrown oQ by a dozen bullocks Is immense,
especially when they are confined in curs where
the air Is close. This heated air, combined with
the animal's brcuth, when taken into the sys
tem over and over ay am, produce the most
dangerous results.
SCIENCE.
The
Chicago Convention of S a vans
roiall Skulls and rootprlnta.
Among the subjects discussed at tne recent
meeting at Chicago of the American Association
for the Advancement ot Science was that of the
Fossil Human Skull. A paper ou the "Fossil
human skull of Calaveras county, California,"
by Protestor J. D. Whitney, was read.
The l'roles'or exhibited the piece of skull in
question, which consisted of a section compris
ing the lace, and running diagonally across, so
as to include one ear cavity. The upper aud
back portion of the skull were lost, as was one
side. With the skull were exhibited several
bones from other portious of the human body,
which were louud in connection with the skull.
The l'rolessor proceeded to discuss the evidence
os to its position in the rock ?, and concluded
that the skull had really been found in such a
position as to warrant the belief that the
lava strata above It had boon deposited since the
skull had found its place there. In the skull was
found a sna.l belungim: to a geuus now iu exist
ence in the Sierra NevaJa mountains, and in
the mouth a bone with a hole through It, as if
it hud been used as tin ornament. From his
investigations the professor inferred that the
superincumbent mass of trtchvtic ashes and
gravel in alternate layers, which was above the
skull, belonged to the pliocene or post-plioceue
epieb of geology, which indicates a much
greater antiquity for man than has usually
been assigned to him. It places bis creation
anterior to the glacial epech, and to the closing
era ol the volcanic eruptions in California. The
lime that has elapsed since thedepositiou of the
skull cannot be stated in years. An approxima
tion can only be ciphered" out by arcuteologists
and geologist", al'er long study of thu circum
stances connected with its deposition.
l'rolessor Sillimun, of .New Haven, said it had
been his fortune to spend a good deal of time
iu the course of the last tew ears, in a critical
examination of a portion of the very region
referred to by Mr. Wuitney. He pasjed a large
part ot last summer in the vicinity of James
town, in Souora, close to ona of the most
ren arkable of those mining reeions which have
been developed particularly in that count v. This
examination waa accompanied ova very diligent
inau.rv as to the possibility of the occurrence
of icniains of animal lite of whatever descrip
tion, or o' organic life, in connection with
these deep-lying places, tie inquired ot all
the miners with "whom he came in contact
particularly with reicrence to the existence of
any evioence oi man or oi uis woras, or oi tue
bones of his skeleton. He was bound to say
that there was not the smallest particle of evi
dence brought to light, either beneath Table
Mountain or elsewhere, of his existence either
in Ibe form ot any poition ot his osseous struc
ture or any ot his handiworks. Ho had listened
the other day with great interest to the remarks
of Professor Blake on the occurrence ot humau
remains in this region. The evidence presented
bv Professor iilske was a read v familiar to him
Irom inquiries at Dr. Suell's, in Sonora. He did
not see any room to ditl'er from the conclusions
of Profe.-sor Whitney. Tliey mu conclude ou
the negative side that evidence was yet wanting
to prove that these evidences of man's handi-
Vtoik. stone implements and other tilings, wcie
really taken Irom beneath Table Mountain.

which were taken in February of this year
(Torn beneath Table Mountain, at a distance ot
more than 1(150 leet from the surface a position
which has since been accurately aeieimmea by
instrumental survey. He was surprised last
summer with the existence of this mastodon
skeleton. That portion of the tuunel iu which
it was iound not proving lucrative iu finding
gold, it had been neglected and fallen in, so that
be was unable to get access to it; out be found
it in the hands of an enligh'cned man, M. D.
Hughes, a good mineralogist and assayer, whom
tie impressed vun me extreme importance,
as a matter ot scientific Interest, that no pains
or care should ou spared to determine the
question, and, whenever he tound bones, if he
would notify him (l'rolessor Minmau), no would
come and inspect them, in March last he re
ceived a letter from Mr. Huuhes, informing him
of the fact that he had reached the bones de
scribed. They were, for the greater part, decom-
ncsed. The tusks weto broken on to the extent
of eighteen inches from the extremity, and they
were also in a very perituaoie state, rue mciars,
however, Mr. Hughes was kind enough to send
bim, and he bad enowuaiiein to f roiessor Marsu
and others. There was no doubt that they were
the teeth of a mastcdon an atiimal which hud
never been tound iu a horizon so deep as this
a dcovery which placed the mastodon back to
the period at which he was louud in India.
V batever might be its age, we certainly at this
pet lod bad no evidence in this horizon ot the
pit seiice of man.
l'rolessor C. II. Hitchcock gave an account of
"the supposed triussic footmarks in Kansas."
He said that lour veurj ago there was a com
munication publi-hed in the American Journal
of Science and Art, coucoruing certain supposed
footprints of birds in the trla-sic rocks of
Kansas. It bad been his lot within the past
month, to visit tho State of Kansas, and, alter a
careful examination, the conclusion at which
he airived waj, that these impressions were not
made by animals at nil. but by some sharp
instrument iu the hands of tuc aborigines. The
specimen was obtained from the edge of a high
bluff in a p tsition where it might be supposed
the Iud a'is would make hallmarks. Tho slb
was two lert iu leugth. aud contained four of
these lmpr 83ions all uuequal in size und no two
ot tbrm alike in form, so that tbey could not
have been made by a bird.

RUFFIANISM.
A Copperhead Iaeulta Uemeral Grant.
The Springfield (III.) Journal of tho 11th lnet.
says:
The brutish, devilish spirit which poiscsspj
the so called Democracy was fully manliest on
the occasion of the passaee of General Grant
through Carlliivllle, the other evening. 1 hat
party, under the auspices of that prince of low
tellows. Bill O'Hrien, oad been holding a politi
cal meetir g in the town during thu day, and
tilled with bad whisky, when ihey heard that
General Grant was upon the train, they started
for the depot, several hundred strong, aud tak
ing possession of the platform, aud surrounding
the General's car.they set upon bim with the most
hideous yells and scrcechings, insulting him and
his family m the most dastardly aud shameful
manner. The lellow O'Brien, whose manuers
are as filthy as ho Is himself personally, was
loudest and foremost in edging ou the drunken
mob. General Grant had raised the window of
the car for the purpose of shaking hands with
some friends whom he recognized, whsn ODe of
the dirty hounds, more impudent than the rest,
rushed to the window and shouting "Hurrah for
8eymour and Blair," violently stiuck General
Grant la the face with his ht1. Mr. MCounell,
who was conversing with the General at the
time, resented the indigoity by giving the tellow
a blow on the side ot the smeller which 6ent
bim sprawliug, aud Lieutenant McKee and
others at once kicked him olf the platform.
This, however, only tbo more incensed tho
Copperhead mob, and though it was intended
by the decent citizens of the place to extend to
the General who had successfully led our armies
through the war some indication of their per
sonal, not to say political, appreciation of his
services, it was fouud to be utterly impossible
to do so, and the train passed on. The hyenas,
with O'Brien at their bend, who perpetrated tho
insult, were highly delighted with their dis
graceful performances, but the respectable citi
zens of Carlinvillc, without regard to party,
were exceedingly indignant that such a reproach
should have been cust upon the good name of
their town; and we are not aitonlshed. It Is
certain that the Democracy have gained nothing
by their bad manners.

FIRST MORTGAGE OOTIDS
Upon sach a property, costing neaMy three limes
thtlr smuont,
ARE ENTIRELY SECURE.
The Union P.clOo Bonds run thirty years, are' for
f 1000 each, and have coupons attached. They bear
anuual Interest, payable on tbe Urst days cf January
and July, at tbe Company's ollice In Ihe City of New
York, at the rate of six per cent. In gold. The prlnul.
pel Is payable lu gold at maturity. The price la to,
and at tie present rate ot gold, they pay v liberal
Ineowe on their cast.
A very Important cons'derallon In determining the
vnlue of these bonds Is Ute letiytlt of time Uwy have to
run.
It Is well known that a longtmnd always commands
a much higher price than a short one. It Is safe to
assume that during the next thirty years, tt e rate or
Interest In the United States will decline as It has
done In i urope, and we have a right to expect that
such six per ceut. securities as these will be held at aa
high a premium as theBe of this Oovernment, which, .
In 18i7 were bought la at from 20 to 2i per cent, above
par. The export demand alone may produce this re
sult, aud us the Issue ol a private corporation, tbey
are beyond tbe reacn ol political i cilou. .
The Company believe that their Bonds, at the pre
sent rate, are the cheapest security In tbe market, and
the rlht to advance tbe price at any time Is reserved,
