Asa grazing region it has no superior, The farm- ers have abandoned the cultivation of the soil as ®@ business, and have for many years en- gaged in the work of stock raising. This | year, however, the change of pasture or some other cause has hada bad effect. Out of 111 four-year old steers brought froin Michigan and owned by Elmer Fairchild, a large cattle dealer, seventy have been seized with what is known as spinal meningitis. Mr. Ppirchild was unacquainted with the character of ‘the disease, and thinking tt might be poison, applied remedies | accordingly. Two days afterward one of those al- fected died, and the following day another died, and a third and fourth were seized with convul- sions. A consultation was held with Drs, Bennett and Judson, When a post-mortem examination made in the case of one of the victims revealed the disease to be as above stated. The kidneys were found inflamed and the stomach disclosed the presence of unhealthy bile and otner substances foreign to it in its normal state. The farmers are becoming alarmed for the safety of their native cattle, and the situa- tion has been brought to the notice of the State Catue Commissioner, Mr. Gould, who has signified his intention to make an investigation for the beneiit of the cattle raising interest. The Secre- tary of the State Board o! Agriculture was here to-day and examined into the nature of the dis- ease. He 1s of opinion that the water which these cattle were given to drink during the transit from West to East was not good and might havé pro- duced the effects narrated.

Was there not a flery bearded 250-pounder son, or stepson, of Mars, who shot glances, to awe the heart of a departmental clerk, from beneath the brow ofa Secretary of War? Was there not a handsome young gallant of fifty odd, with silver hair, mustache and imperial, who paced the deck gallantly telling stories, perhaps of the splendor of the court of the Czar, and who now rejoices in the | title of Postmaster General, alter having been Congressman, Governor and Minister? This was Marshal Jewell, dear to the heart of the Nutmeg State, and around him are others whom | nced not here enumerate. Oh! it was just the gathering for an office-seeker to long for, as for a society- hungry shoddyite to grasp py the hand. BOARDED BY THE PRESIDENT. As the Peking passed through the Narrows there was a general ripple of expectancy, which culmi- nated when a@ gold-banded oficial cried out joy- | ously, “Here she is.” The expected object was a revenue cutter, inthe pilot house of which might be discerned, on the starboard side, the well- known face of President Grant, wearing its imtne- morial steady expression. After the usual stop- ping, backing and gangway-lowering, the Presi- dential party came aboard—the President first, tol- lowed by Mrs. Grant, dressed tu black silk. With him came Private Secretary Babcock and lady, ex- Private Secretary Porter and lady, Mrs. and Miss Barnes, wile and daughter of the Surgeon General; Mr. Cainpbell, wile and daughter; Mr. George W. Childs, and Mr, Hugh Hastings. ‘the band struck up ‘“Hatl Columbia” as the President touched the gangway, and, as he touched the deck, the Vice President, the Postmaster General and tue Secretary of War passed forward to welcome him. It was a kindly, quiet reception, and much handshaking followed, the company substituting smiles for the cheers which fee Peano people might have showered upon Ulysses. ‘then tne band played the “Star Spangled Banner,” and the Presidential party went to breakfast. Now the good ship sped on her way, and, as she felt the long sinewy swell of the Atlantic beneath her keel, added her roll to the breaktast of the distinguished ests. THE VICE PRESIDENT AND THE THIRD TERM. All were soon on deck and politics were not ne- glected in the soto voce conversation that the President’s reappearance gave birthto, The third term found its discussionists, but the nearer politi- calexigencies demanded the lion’s share of the comment. You could hardly say how it impressed itself on you, but it at once became apparent to the close observer that between the Presidential party proper and tne Vice President there was that want of harmony which the basty might call a coldness. “What does it mean?” said a few. Visions of Ben Butler and his administra- tion-backed fight with Bay State Brahmin- ism rose fore the eye, while the President and his party chatted together, and the band played the “Conspirators’ Chorus,” from Mme. Angot. Henry Wilson stood aloof, with an expression of face like & man chewing unripe per- simmons. He looked like & man who was sadiy making up his mind to be stoical in face of the awkward and disagreeable, Said a spectator “Grant 1s going hunting in the Massachusetts pri serves to help Butler along in Grant’s quiet way.’’ “ivs an old difficulty,” said another. “Did you read Henry Wilson’s statement in the Hera.p ?” said a third. ‘He said be wouldn't vote for Grant for @ third term, and that’s what's the matter. Grant dislikes that sort of thing, whether be means to run for a third term or not. fie is not obtrusive; but he is extremely sensitive, and he hastens to attribuce what a man says for prin- ciple to personal dislike.” So the discussion and the ship moved on. Lunch was served and eaten by those whom the rolling had not rendered squeamish. At half-past two Fire Isiand lighthouse was passed, Shortly after Mrs. Grant succumbed to the mal de mer. With music, social converse and occasional enforced study of the white basins on the part of tho ladies, the day Wore into night, and altnough Del- | monico spread @ most tempting menu, it required tne sturdy stomachs of politicians, company di- rectors, steamship men and journausts to master its contents, DECIDED!.Y WEIRD.

The journey of tne Prest- | dential party from New York was alike pleasant and eventiul. The spacious apartments of that | leviathan steamer, the City of Peking, afforded } ample accommodation for every one, and the leis- | urely journey ‘rom New York to Newport was one of universal pleasure all round, notwithstanding | the long time occupied in making the trip. 1t was | past two o’clock this morning when she came sur- | reptitiously into Newport Bay and weighea her anchor. Of course the President and the 200 or 300 others on board had retired long since, and the idea of going ashore was, of course, not enter- tained fora moment. This was a sad disappoint- ment for the floating and permanent community of the charming summer resort, for they had counted on indulging in @ demonstration of wel- come to the distinguished visitors, and it was long after midnight before the cherishea idea was necessarily abandoned. With the rising of the sun this morning ‘THE GAY COLORS of the steamer were seen flying in the harbor, and all fearful antictpations occasioned by the delay the night before were at once dispelled. The gigantic proportions of the Peking did not permit her to approach any ot the wharves, and the party were brought ashore by one of tue steamers con- nected with the torpedo station, Almost the first to meet the President was his pastor, Rey. Dr..Tifany, of Washington, by whose invitation he is presen’ at the anuual camp meet- ing. Fhe party drove immediately to the Ocean House in Newpor', and betore the fact of their departure from the boat was generally Known they were comfortably seated at the breakfast table. The forenoon, until half-past eleven, was quietly spent, ana then the party leit on @ Special train over the Old Colony Railroad for Wood's Hole, en route for the fo The visitors were joined in New- port by SEVERAL DISTINGUISHED OFFICIALS and citizens of Massachusetts, including, be- sides Governor Talbot and stam, W.

At the depot in Newport there was a a crowd of the admtring and enthnsiastic assembled, and when the train moved | away they induiged in a round of hearty cheering, to which lusty compliment the twice-elected Executive appeared upon the platform anadn & most dignifi mahner bowed his grateful ac- | knowledgments, The locomotive was oandsomely decorated with flags and bunung, and its gay pearance as it sped trough the country was & signal to the uniniormed that there were distin- guished pemenasre behind it. The train con- sisted of three cars, only one of which was assigned to tie President and his immediate party, another to the invited guests, and the third was rigged up for the serving of & collation, which was a happy tn- cident of the journey, in the middie of the after. noon, Superintendent Kendrick was in immedi ate charge of the train, and tne comfort of the ‘arty Wad looked ong for by the irrepressible hurry to leeward and illustrate one of the oeau- | “He's a bigger man than | There are the Vice President, a couple | 7 Mafor Morrison, the veteran Sergeant-at-Arms of Massachusetts.

Fall River, the great manufacturing mark of America, was the first stopping stacion after leay- ing Newport. Many of the magnificent temples of industry with which the city abounds were visible irom the train, and were viéwed by the Presidemé for the first ime. There was quite a crowd at the depot, and also at che suburban station of Bowem- Ville, Which indulged in the USUAL DEMONSTRATIONS OF WELCOME; all of which the President acknowledged by appearing on the platiorm, raising bis tile and inclining the head sligntiy forward. A cou Of fragraut and mammoth vouguets were cont uted oere to the distinguished visitor and Mrs. Grant by one of the charming young ladies of the Spindle City, and tho President was obliged to de part from bis usnai custom and say a (ew words ef acknowledgment. GOVERNUK TALBOT RECEIVES THE VISITORS, Alter the train had leit the Fail River station Governor Talbot and bis staf! were forthe tirst lume presented to the Presidential party, and the visitors were informally welcomed. Mr. Ruggles, of Fitchburg, upon being presented, tendered a cigar, whereupon Ulysses bit off the end, drew o& match, lighted up and finished it to the shortest kind of a stub and alterwards calied tor another. The third term and the Beecuer scandal were nes even alluded to, but such topics as the weather and camp meetings \ormed the chtel themes o! con- versation. Indifferent landscape on one side and not very attractive waterscape on the otuer were scenes not calculated to inspire avy very gashing exclamations of admiration, and so it was taat only the current events of the day occupied Execu- tive attention, At ail ot the stativns where the train stopped there were crow sembied, the largest being at Wercham, my: Ssville, Middie- boro’ and Wood’s Hole, the point where the party left the train for the Vinevard steamer. Toere were no speeches, but handshaking and cheertag in abundance. ON THE RIVER QUEEN. The boat River Qucen was taken at about three o‘clock at Wood's uole. 1. was crowaed with pas- | sengers, on (heir way to the Vineyard. desirous of band of fifty | being there on the occasion of President Grant's visit. ‘Ine sail was brief and very pleasant, at- though the water was vardly smooth enough te allow Mrs, Grant to enjoy the fine scenery, as she had not fully recovered trom the effects of Wednesday's sail from Sandy Hook to Newport. Al cainp meeting landing a strect car, drawn by six horses and gayly decked, received the Prest- dent and party, whu, as they were drawn though the crowds that skirted the narrow track on ether side from the landing to tie cottage Bishop Haven, where General Grant will re- main during his visit, were enthusiastt- cally cheered, Arriving at the cottage, they entered it find a beantiiul, cosey and conveniently arranged interior, decked with flowers and the walls adorned with tasteiully ar- rangea ferns. Collector Simmons took occasion to show the public and the Presitent that te was not unmindiul of past favors, which he proved oy furnisuing the bunting, colors and mottoes whic covered and decorated the front of the house. “dang out your banners on the outer Walls’ was Simmons’ motto, and he has done it regardless o€ cost, which he well can afford, however. Preat- dent Grant was well provided for in the cottage, even that luxury he sometimes indulges cigars, being generously supplied, and placed ia a conspicuous place in ad ante-room. TRE WELCOME. In the cottage he was received by the Rev. Dr. Talbot, who welcomed him as the President of the Camp Meeting Association to their place of ship, and expressed the hope that he would derive as much pleasure and profit from bis visit as the association derived pleasure in recetving vim. CHEERED IN THE TABERNACI He was escorted to the big ten sands of Methodists and others vor were UhOte CYOUSLY ap- | plauded him when introduced, whici, as usual, he responded to with a quict bow. Vice President Wilson, Postmaster General Jewell, General Bele Knap, Secretary of War, and Governor Lalvot, o€ Massuchusetis, were introduced as well, but none essayed to do otherwise or speak more eloquentiy than had President Grant. Returning aster thus Jormal Introduction to the coutage, he was agaim called out, aud appeared upon tue balrouy to re- ceive the cheers of the hundreds who could gaim gO hear an approach to him. EVENING FESTIVITIES. The grounds were eleganuy illuminated tn the evening, and fireworks in great number and bri- liancy Sent up in the sky. Ocean avenue an@ the bluts were brilliant with gay lanterns and bright hghts. The great occasion of the season was the reception given by Mra, Dr. Tidany to Mrs. Grant, which was, of course, attended by all the dignitaries on the grounds and 4 great mang others who desired to pay their compliments to. the lady of so distinguisaed a@ personage as the President.
