 CRUELTY TO ANIMALS

 The way in which loafers and upstart idlers a- buse dumb beasts is enough to freeze mans blood, even in these suitry times The horse that useful and faithful animal, is made to suffer, without mer- cy, by men who deserve to be lodged at once in the county prison the watch-house or the pilory. We have a statute provided for the punishment of any one who shall s.wantonly and cruelty beat or torture any horse, OK or other animal, wheth- CT belonging to himself or another. We know not that it is any worse 10 beat brute, than to urge him on, at his utmost speed at time when every animal, human or brute, suffers extremely from heat, even with much prudence and care.--

 indeed the fast driving is the worst of the two.-- For when man beats his horse, the presumption that he does it for some ohstinancy or ugliness of the beast. But when an idle Sagaboud races through our streets like Jehu, on hot day, with his horse apparently suffering extremely from the heat it is from pure. unqualified, radical meanness. It has and have no apology. It IS merciless. e. ven to barbarity. It has no motive worthy of any body but a fiend or a savage.

 No man races through the streets in such weath- CT as we have had for few days unless it be from ambition to show his skill in driving, or from n- veterate malice The first he exhibit more sat

 sfactorly and lawfully, by some harlequin perfor. or scorched out of him, but by some severe dsc- pline Of some terrible calamity The first impulse we have, when seeing some young wifd6re putting his horse up to the utmost speed is certain kind of wish that his vehicle may be broken, by some kind of retributive accident, into fragments finer than kindling wood, and himself cleverly disabled, so that he may be compelled to hobble about for a certain "perod of time" say three or four months, upon crutches. s -

 There is no kind of justification for this cruelty to animals. It is an outrage, and against all hu- manity. It is the same thing however exhibited, whether in robbing birds nest, in torinentng a domestic animal, or in making race of every pub- lie street in hot summer day. The man has no spark of goodness in his heart, who will torture dumb beast. Let him run himself to death. fine will run mile "in the incredible short time of ? minutes" let him do so. It is his own job. But, torment not the animal which has no power of re- sisance. We talk about our refinement and good feeling. But it is folly and nonsense The man who will torment his horse, by hard drawing, or fast driving, and those who courage him by ap. in bull batting, or cock-fghting. The Spaniard exercises his preferences in way, and we in an- other. But it is all from the same sources of gen. uine, and unadultcrated cruelty. None but acruel, hard -hearted man will torment his beast None 1 but the same kind of man will fail to be pained when he sees the torment inflicted by others. THE SAILORS COMPLIMENT TO A LADY. It is said that lady of extraordinary beauty, once confessed that the only real compliment she i ever received was from coat heaver, who asked permission to light his pipe in her eyes.
