While Kindness to animals ia IN ock-

do not sometimes, in in moments Of
anger. FORGET these obl;cat;ons r.
there is ANYTHING which will convince
us of the folly of 80 doing, it must be
a view ofthose Observation-Disclosures verv

Of the execution.
An acquaintance Of mine. who kcens
but one horse, has had, within a dozen
wears, I should think UPWARDS Of a half
q dozen different horses, each Of which
has, in turn, become 80 completely worn
out, or so vicious, as to become almost
worthless. They have been driven al.
mos, constantly, hitched to loads which
they could not possibly draw. and then
abused because they could not draw
them. In this way, spirited horses
were soon rendered ungovernablc. and
those which would yield to such treat.
rnent were soon utterly broken down.
Another ACQUAINTANCE had very val.
liable mare, which was accidentally in.
iured. By neglect she became poor
weak, and finally was 80 much reduced
that she could not rise upon their feet.
In this condition, rather than to have

her away, getting scarcely considera.

porly cared for, she began Immediately
