NEW YORK, October 26.-The hore?
malady has spread to such an extent that
almost all horses in the city are said to
be suffering ia one form or another from
symptoms of the epidemic. There are
ftousands of hones which have not yet
been put upon {he sick list, but observa
'tioitgoes to snow that many of these
.have the germs of the disorder in their
system. ,
The disease has thus far been rasher
slow in it? development,- and it is not
known yet whether all its stages have
been*seen. It is estimated that in t?e city
ark?4 ihaniecli?te v?cmiry there' ate tr?hV
thirty to forty thousand horses suffering
from irell, developed svjnptoms ?C t?e dis

Tee stfceet car companies, some of the

signs of fatality are becoming more and,
more alarming.
In the stables where all buaines? i?

very favorable reports .ara made. In some
instances th? convalescence of horses is
very raru/i,
The trotters and races stabled-'in ,ihe

be signalized by the levy, and imm?diate
collection, of a State tax of two OT two

.is nb indisposition to pay such taxes as

sides, the determination is openly ex

public feeling appears likely to assume

The Wheat Crop.
1 WA^HIAUTAS, October 24.-The agri
cultural report says returns have been
received from counties representing a
large proportion of wheat of each State,
which indicate an Increase of about 5 per |
cent over the product of last year, which
was estimated at 230,000,000 bushels. It
?is probable that the completed estimate
will not fall short of 240,000,000 bushel?.
Upon an area of little less than 20,000,000
acres, they will make a yield,,of between
i twelve and thirteen bushels' per acre,
wBich may be considered an' average tor j
the United States. The increase of 'the
Stateg west- of the Mississippi appears to
be about'15,000,000 bushels.
THE DOBK'S MINE HOMICIDE.-The
Abbeville Pres*, says: "A colored man
named Jack Brown'was killed at -Dom's
.Mine on last Wednesday .night Jby a pis-'
U>I shot, which passed through his langs.
According to the testimony before a cor
oner's inquest, heid 'on the next day by
Esq.'James M. Caslan, he occupied one.*|
end of a double log cabin, and the inmates
of the other end heard thc shot, and the
cry of; the murdered man and the fallius
of his body, but did not learn of his aoatt
till next morning, wuen the dead body
was discovered. The whole mutter is in
volved in mystery. A while man named
Lewis Banks baa been* arrested for the
murder ; bat the circumstances amount
only, we learn, to some grounds of suspi
cion. Neither Banks nor Brown wj?nt to
the election oil Wednesday, and there was
no known ill-will between them, and cer
tainly uo political quarrel. Whatever the
cause, and whoever the perpetrator of thc
mme, there was certainly no connection
with politics in the.afluir. "

Ghosts Abroad,-in Georgia. t .
At Surrency, on the Macon and Bruns
wick Railroad, in .Appling County,
Southern Georgia, lives Mr. Surrency, a
gentleman well to do in the world, and
umversally regarded as one of tho most
honorable, et ti sens of the County. And
it is this Mr. Sunencv's house that the
ghosta have taken as their theatre of ac-.
Hon. And stupid, prosy, tiresome action
it has been. Crockery, pottery, glass
ware and bhtcher knives have fallen
from their shelves day by day, and been
shivered upon the lieor. Ears of corn
have fallen suddenly in thc room?, as
Dianna in the wilderness. Smoothing
?rons have slid forward and back upon
their own hook. Books have jumped
around the floor, as if possessed of devils.
The old family :cloc1c has kicked up its
heels like a young calf.- Ked-hot brick
bat* have been hurled about like stoned
in an Irish riot . Hogi, have tpuered
tightly chxedrooms, anu, after walking
hither aud thither, vanished like vapor
before the gaze of the beholders. And
last, but most sensible, an old Sea-cap
tain who went to seo the performances,
got tfredund dry, and wislied (only wish
ed !) ft.? bottle of whiskey, whereupon
a full bottle appeared upon the lioor by
his side, and, after he had poured out a
stiff drink,'vanished like thc hog. Kind
io CONIC.'bul unkind to litnit*ail old sea
captain to a single drink ! j
And tri 1,these thing's done as if hy the
impulse of the lifeless articles them
selves Not i he faintest vitiObe agency!
And hundreds and hundreds of people
including newspaper reporters, who can
scarcely bo called" people-went day by.
day to .gaze, and watch, and ferret out
th? ?mystery.
Bu: KO- far it 'remains uufcrretod, and
unfathomed. At one time Mr. Surrency
and his family left tho house, in alarm
and disgust. .We do not know fhat they
have gone back tu it. And all these
tilings are true, strictly {rue, as thou
sands of people can testily. But after
all .how low and uninteresting! Such
ghost? ?ire a disgrace to their species;.
Who could tolerate ghosts without long
shadowy draperies, and bleeding wounds,
and deathly, mysterious groans, and

Thc^TerrTble Horse ?ickuess.
A terrible and deadly horse/ sickuess
ta raging in New York, BostobT.Chicago,
St. Louis, Rochester,'.Detr?i(, apd many
other cities. It seem? to' be spreading-')
with friglitful rapidity airo'ver" fhe'whoje
country, tn a stable'of horses in
New Yofk, the whole' 24U0 had taken it
in twenty four hours'" after the first-oife
develop*J it It is a-sort of catahrral
Uaver. Business suffers disastrously in
these cities, especially in Now- Yo"rk."
Broadway, says one paper, is M .deserted
as a village lane.
Gov. Scott, In a proclamation prohibit
ing the'iniportation of horses during the
existence of this epidemic, says :
Whereas information has reached this
oflice that an epidemic among horses ex-,
ists to an alarming extent in the Northern
cities, and unless" precautionary measures
.re provided against the introduction-of:
this contagious lisease,#grea< lass ma.-'
be caused therofrobi ; Now, therefore, I,
Robert K. .Scott, Governor of fhe State of ]
South Carolina, do hereby ordain" and
proclaim that!the importation ol' horses
and mules is prohibited during.tho bxls
tence of this epidemic, and thawaii ves
sels having such cui^n -.' riving atth?'
iiorts of Charleston;., Georgetown and
lliliou Head, be dir'octed to reihain at
Quarantine' anchorage until they arc
visited and inspected by tho Heal th otficer
of said ports, respectively. , ?
?&- The colorod women have ?n sev
eral occasions had,Hot Suppers for the j
purpose of finishing the Church which
is intended for the worship of God by
colored people. On Thursday night last,
they gave another ol these Hot Suppers,
and realized, we arc informed, a respec
table sum towards the completion o'
t'aeir Church. These women are in earn
est in this matter, and deserve commen
dation. Andyetthey get bull?ale encour
agement froui their colored malo friends,
who have been so much engaged in po
litics that they have no time and but lit
tle money for religious purpose's. And*|
we would hero remark thatlintess these
men come square up,' and build, or assist
finishing the building of the house of|
God, we fear thc religion.'? training of the
colored people will be sadly neglected.
