CLITLIC DISEASE
- .The prevalence of. - oontagiois or
epidemic'diseases among cattle:ind
,other animals has fur some 'years
. past been a prolific source of anxiety
and alarm among thei Prodicers and
consumers of- Meats - in many of the
States. It was therefore deemed im•
portant to calks,. convention of com
petent persons to , take into considera
tion ,the means best calculated to
remedy this great and growing evil.
This convention 'composed of three
commissioners e ach from the fourteen
States represented, appointed in ac-
Ordance with an- agreement by the
several Governors, assembled at
Springfield, Illinois, on the first of
December last, and an account of
their transactions is lieiewitli pre
sented. -
Without legislative authority, but
believing my action 'would be dam-
Coned .b,t.the people's ' representa
tive; I appointed Dr. Hiram Corscin
and Messrs. E. C. Humes and A.
Boyd Hamilton, commissioners to
represent Pennsylvania in that.cofi
vention: These gentlemen freely
gave their time and - experience, and
also incurred a pecuniary expense of
about three hundred dollars i to defray
which I recommend that an appro
priation be made.
