The London Lancet, the leading medical journal in England, contains the following: "The report of Dr.
Murchisons dissections of the diseased cattle, which appeared in the Lancet as long ago as August 2(1, showed clearly that the rinderpest was not the pathological equivalent of human typhoid fever, and we believe we are correct in stating that this opinion ha3 been confirmed by every subsequent observer. From Dr. Murchison's present communication, however, it is obvious that there exists a very strong analogy, if not absolute identity, between the rinderpest and arguments by Which this view is supported deserves serious consideration. It appears that in all cases of cattle plague there is an eruption on the skin, sometimes papular and postular, like that of variola; at other times consisting of flattened vesicles like those of cow-pox. The two disease also resemble one another in their general symptoms and anatomical lessons, in their period of incubation and duration, and ia their extreme contagiousness and capability of propagation by inoculation.
There are even some grounds for believirg that rinderpest may communicate cow-pox to the human subject, and the reason why this accident has not happened oftener may be due, as Dr. Murchison suggests, to the fact that most of the inhabitants 61 this country are protected by vaccination. "It also appears that the physicians who so carefully described the cattle plague in the last century constantly alluded to the eruption, and compared it to that ot small-pox. it the view now referred to be correct, it is impossible to over-estimate its importance. A remedy is at once placed in our hands for arresting the spread ol'thc cattte plague, which has already come to be regarded as a great national calamity.
We prevent the fatal form of small-pox in the huraau subject by inducing a mild form of the disease through vaccination. If rinderpest be a severe form of small pox in cattle, why may it not also be prevented by inducing in cattle the mild form of the disease, or ordinary cow-pox? This wo know can be done by inoculating them with vaccine lymph, or with the matter of human smallpox. "No time ought to be lost in adopting Dr. Murchison's suggestion, to ascertain whether cattle, after such inoculation, be proof against the rinderpest. In the meantime valuable information might be obtained from members of our profession practising in those parts of the country where ordinary cow-pox is known to Many remarkable instances have been recorded where individual cattle or entire herds have escaped in the midst of surrounding pestilence.
Can it be shown this exemption has been due to their having suffered previously from the cow pox? It eeems, however, that the ordinary cow-pox has Tor some years been dying out in this country, eo that it has been difiicu.lt to obtain frceh lymph direct from the cow, and thus the came 01 mis country are probably less protected than formerly against the variola in a severe form. If this be bo, there is no reason why vaccination should not be practiced as commonly among cattle as among men. The above investigations have been carried out in connection with the experimental inquiries instituted at the in THE SUN.

Anniversary of tht Opening of the Aged Men" Home. The first anniversary of the ODemrig of this institution, of which Miss Margaret Fur-viance is the president, was celebrated Yester day, at the Home, corner or Calhosa and Weat Payette streets. At the hour of noon a large-number of ladies and srentiemen assembled in the chanel attached to the institution, where, with the inmates, (sixteen venerable and hapoy looking old-gentlemen.) all were comfortably seatc. The services were opened bv the Rev. Mr.
Purviance. of the Presbyterian Church, giv ing out tne iista i caira, ine nrst lour verses of which were sung. This was followed by reading a portion of the Scripture by the Rev. Mr. Lefevre, and a praver from the Rev.
Dr. Bullock, when the Eev. Julius E. Grammer, of the Protestant Episcopal Church, delivered a most able and feeling address. He alluded to the many noble monuments for which Baltimore had become famous to the piles of marble erected to comme morate tne aeeas 01 tne warrior, me nome acts of the statesman, or the virtues of those who had gone down to their graves as the benefactors 01 their race, but "The Aged sien a tne sister Institution adjoining, "The Aged omen a Home," "The Home of the Friendless," ani the numerous "Orphan Asylum.3," all under the care cf and managed by the philanthropic but indom itable spirit of the laaics ot Baitimore, of a i sects and all creeds, were monuments to the eye of the Christian of far more beautiful propo--tions and endnring value they were monuments based en the great injunction of the Saviour of Mankind Monuments to Charity.
The Rev. Dr. Bullock followed, in somevery appropriate re marks, during which he highly complimented the lady managers of the institution. The Rev. Mr.
purviance pronounced the benediction, previous to doing which, however, he invited, on behalf of the lady managers, all present to make a thorough examination of the different departments of the building The institution is, as might have been expected, in most exoellent condition, every portion of the edifice being as bright and clean as it was when first thrown open one year ago. The venerable gentlemen who have here taken up their abode lor the balance of life, speak in the highest terms of the management of the institution, nothing being left undone that ca possibly conduce towards miking "all within its walls feel truly at Hom-e." A Confidence Swindle. The confidence operators are still at work, although their operations of late have been less frequently than formerly. A gentleman named William N. Hewett, hailing from Petersburg, was unfortunate enough, on Tuesday night last, to fall in with one of these swindlers, and was relieved of $320.
Mr. IT, it appears, arrived from Washington on the- evening in question, ani was accosted at the Camden station by the swindler, who professed to be a stranger, and inquired for a hotel. Mr. Hewett inrorined himtaat he also was a stranger, and upon his saying that he was from Virginia, the stranger was apparently much pica-ed, anrt said that he also was from that section of country. Their acquaintance ripened, aud during the the stranger suddenly remembered that he bad left bia carpet-bag containing his funis in chara-e of the "baggage agent," at the depot.
Mr. Ii. proferred the use of his funds until morning, and handed him $20: shortly after a third met the stranger ar.d presented a bill for $200" which he also borrowed from Mr. and soon disappeared, and has not been since from. At rest for Alleged PoVtry.

The Boston Post contains a sketch of a lecture delivereim that city on Tuesday evening by the Eev.
Hen Ward Beecher, on "reconstruction," from which we quote a3 follows: There is no principle of American liberty which will cohere with the doctrine that suffrage is a political right. If it be said that this principle would give the right of suffrage to women, he would give it to her as well as man. Every consideration of policy and good sense point to the giving of this right, for a woman Is as good a9 a man, and a man and his wife a great deal better than each other. Yet he would not insist on the extension of suffrage as a condition of reconstruction. If he had been President he would have dore so laet spring: but matters had gone eo far since that it was unwise to press this requirement now.
That which we sow in May we do not sow in August. To go back on the steps that have already been taken and demand ne guarantees of the South would be the most tfn- gracious thing that we could be called upon to do. Mr. Beecher then stated what, in his opia- ion, we might and mirht not expect the South to do. We could cot expect that men who had to submit to an overpowering military force should rejoice in their downfall, and spring up to kiss the men that have whipped them.
The men of the South were as sincere when the? went into the war as those of the North, and now that they are conquered, we could notisk them to be joyful or jubilant. We must not expect that men who had relinquished slavery upon compulsion would engage with alacrity in the work of emancipation. If this result had been the consequence of a long discussion, and they had voted emancipation, we might have reason for the course of remark that is indulged in; not otherwise. We must not expect that men educated under institutions totally the reverse of ours will let them go in a day and seek ne ones from their conquerors, lie wa3 not surprised to read that Yankees are not popular at the South, and that when the army goes some ef the Yankees must go with it. Being defeated, they are not disposed to accept superfluous and intrusive advice from thoee who have defeated them.
We must not expect that men who have regarded negroes as inferior beiugs all their lives Ehall receive complacently the doctrine of equality and citizenship in its relations to the black man. Sometimes it would be well for us to remember the homes we live in. He did not believe there were a dozen places in Brooklyn where a colored man could obtain work, unless all the white men should leave. We. who still indalgo in this prejudice, should not blame the people of the South who do not believe that society can be reorganized with the negro as aa equal.
Nor should we expect that they would know how even when they try to treat the negro fairly, for they have been brought up to treat him as a beast. WC may set up schools aud churches in the South in such way as to be antagonistic to Southern schools and" Southern churches. One kindly disposed white man in the South is worth twenty in Massachusetts. There may be such a precipitate zeal of philanthropy for them as will defeat its own work. Legislation will not alleviate prejudice.
It won't change unkind feelings into kind ones. The South miist recover by labor, and it is only new industry that will bring her back. She is fast finding this out. Her success depends upon cotton; cotton cannot be had without black labor, and black labor cannot be bad unless negroes are kindly treated. So self-interest will soon teach them the right way out oft.
he difficult v. The blacks should become landholders a-3 fast as pdssitf. T''-a glfry. Of tU? North is its diversified and minute industry. He would not object to making property a preliminary qualification for suti'rage, as an indnceixent to industry and thrift.
Mr. Beecher closed his lecture with an eloquent appeal for justice and love, as the only sure basis of reconstruction, and advocated a spirit of magnanimity. He protested against vindictive punishment against Jeff. Davis, a inexpedient and uncalled for. The era of destruction had passed, and that of restoration bad come.
This new position of affairs required a change of tactics. His remarks on this point made a profound The Bank Defalcation in Vermont.

Annapolis, January 13. This convention assembled in the Hall of the House of Delegates at 5 P. M. yesterday. Lieutenant Governor Cor in the chair.
Every county except Calvert, was represented. The convention re -assembled at half-past seven o'clock. The subject of discussion was upon the best mode of providing school houses. It re assembled thi3 morning, and a further discussion was had on this and various other topics, including the proper location of the Normal School, until half-past eleven o'clock, when the convention adjourned to wait upon Governor Swann, in the Executive Chamber. After their introduction by Dr.
Joel Hopkins, tb.3 first vice-president, the. Ee v. Mr. Van the State Superintend ent, presented the lodowuig address: Mr. Governor I have been requested, as the representative of the association of School Com missioners of Maryland, to present their greet ing, ana assure you ot their protouna satisfaction in welcoming as the uniet aiagtstrate a citizen who has served the State so well in every posi tion private and public which he has occupied.
lou are identinea. sir, with the great puoiic works by which the wealth of Maryland has been developed, and her metropolis made the third commercial city 01 the nation. By loyal example and the sustaining influence of Wise counsels, you helped to keep the hearts of the people true to the old flag, and to turn their minds towards a love of freedom. Every section of Maryland, during the perilous years of the war, heard your words of patriotic exhortation, and now that peace has dawned we rejoice to have you in a place ef commanding- influence. Your record assures us that your influence will Be used for the greatest good of the greatest number, a phrase perhaps somewhat commonplace, but truly and essentially American.
We are here, sir, to-day, as school commissioners of Maryland, charged with putting into efficient operation the system of public instruction of which, as a part of the new constitution you were the eloquent advocate. We are a portion of 140 earnest-minded men, engaged in what we cocceive to be the greatest and most enduring of all public works the development of the minds and hearts of the children of the State the diffusion of knowledge and virtue. Under us are 1.600 teachers daily at work in as many school houses, training every year nearly 80,000 children, the future! citizens of Maryland. These teachers wield an influence who can estimate its power? who can say what its effect upon the destiny of the State may be? It is the lever by whiih, if properly applied, Maryland will be raised to greatness. We come to you.
sir, not only as our Governor, but as the chief of our system of public schools, the President of the State Board of Education. We know that this work will not stand still in your hands. It will bridge the rivers of prejudice, tunnel the mountains of indifference, and give our people a smooth track to knowledge. We know your energy, sir, but do not depend upon it more than upon your deserved inflaence with the people. We invoke that influence in behalf of the- uniform system of free public instruction, opening the primary schools, the grammar schools, the high school and the college to the humblest child of Maryland giving it the same opportunity to get wisdom, more precious than rubies, as the child favored by fortune and surrounded by friends.
May God give you health, and make your la-bois pleasant to yourself and profitable to the people. The Governor replied, expressing his profound satisfaction at meeting those who represent the educational system of the State of Maryland, and the feeling that he did not deserve the compliments which were so gracefully bestowed by the representative of the Association of School Commissioners. He alluded to tiis position a3 a private citizen at the beginning of this rebellion, one even in disgrace, deserted by nearly all with whom he had been associated and accustomed to act and think, but, sustained by an unflinching loyalty, he. with those before him. had lived to seethe triumph of free government, and, as a result of the advancement of opinion, the establishment for the State, as it were by one leappf a system of public education, even in advance of that of many of the older i-iates.
Other States are already looking to us and preparing to follow our example, ar.d' to nroSt by our admirable Echocl law. He hoped "that, taronga its influence. Maryland would become the beacon light fef education. Let its rays extend to the door of the house of eyery man within the limits of the Stale, not excepting even the fieedman. Unless this were done, the freedom given them would be but in name.
He wished to have them educated to St them for the full and perfect enjoyment of that freedom which it was designed to give them. He considered the cause of education one of the greatest importance, paramount. any otter III WUICh, OOCaUSe OI thC position to which, by the aid of those now be fore him. he was elevated, he would be caliei on to take part: that to this in the future, as in the past, his most earnest co-operation would be freely extended: that if he were possessed oi any power or energy ic should be used for the advancement of the interests of education. The members of the convention were t'nen introduced to the Governor, who cordially invited them to visit the Executive mansion, at all times open to the citizens.
The Convention reassembled at 12 o'clock, in the room of the Lieutenant tJovernor, when the question of schools for colored children was discussed, and a committee appointed to present this and other subjects connected with the public schools to the joint committee on education of the General Assembly. The Convention will assemble again at 4 P. M. Their discussions hive been exceedingly interesting, and of very great importance. Circular from Gen.
