Cruelty 10 Animals.

The forty SIKH section of the Penal Code
of this State, as revised by committee OF
The last Legislature, imposes severe pen
atty upon those who cruelty beat or torture
animals. And it is just, that II is So In
every civilized community such statutes
exist, and in London and other cities OF Eu-
rope, societies exist for the protection OF
animals, the individual members of which
are required 10 inform upon and bring all
such offenders to justice. For the benefit
of those who own horses and cattle AMI who
think, because they are their personal
properly, they can beat and treat them as
they please, as well as others, we subIoln
the 18th section:
..If any person shall wsntonly and crnelly
bea.. torture, kill, or MAIN any horse or
domestic animal, whether belonging TO him
SELF or another, every such person SO ofiend
ing shall be guilty of misdemeanor, anu
on conviction, be sentenced TO pay hne
not exceeding two hundred dollars, or un'
dergo an imprisonment not exceeding one
year, or both, or either, at The discretion OF
the court"

On Wednesday evening, 25,h uIt at New

On Wednesday evening, 25lh ult at New
Orleans, the friends and supporters OF
Breckenridge and Lale held an immense
meeting. The Della, of the 9th ut., in
speaking OF ii, says:
The turnout of the supporters of Breck-
inridye and Lane last night surpassed the
antIcipalions of the most sanguIne friends
of the cause, not in its numbers alone,
which far exceeded those of any other pro-
cession during The present campaign, bnt IN
the genuine enthusiasm and spirit which
peryaded the immense throng. The i'm
meuse crowds on the sidewalks aitested the
universal sympathy in the cause by their
shouts and hurras, while every balcony aud
window on the line of the march OF the
cayalcade was crowded with ladies, who
waved their handkerchiefs and threw gar
lands 10 the gallant youth who bore so
splendidly the banner of the Union, of the
Constitution and of the rights OF the South.
Our local report will give the details OF
this grand demonstration. We can only
saw here that the display of last night gave
an earnest assurance that New Orleans does
not intend 10 be cheated or betrayed out OF
| her right and her reputation, as the great
metropolis of the South. The true De-
/ mocracy will not suffer her TO be placed IN
| antagonlsm with the vast majority oil the
/ people oil the States, from whom she re-
| ceives her chief sustenance, and with whose

Fusion in New York.

We have the official report of the final
action of the Cooper Institute Committee OF
Fifteen, and their Electoral ticket for the
State of New York is now before the peo-
pie. Ii has been officially accepted by the
DEAN RIcnMoND or Douglas Committee =
The friends OF Mr.. Douglas in New York
have thus abated their determination not TO
coalesce with other conservative elements
10 accomplish the defeat Of Mr. Lincoln. 1t
shows a return TO patriotic sentiments and
is an acknowledgment of the true wants OF
the crisis, full of hope and encouragement.
In New York, from the beginning, the
Breckenridge Democracy have Shown the
most patriotic spirit. They have insisted
on no extreme or unpracticable conditions.
but have offered repeatedly TO be satisfied
with much less than justice. Their reason
able demands having been rejected oy the
Douglas Committee, there was of course an
end 10 all further arrangement as regards
that organization.
But the action of the Cooper Institute
Committee has placed the whole subject on
different footing. a majority OF this Com
mittee are the friends of Mr.. Breckenridge.
Their object was not the degradation OF the
Breckenridge organization, but the Union o.
all conservative elements against MIR. Lin
coin. What could not be conceded TO al
arrogant and antagonistlcal organization
could be yielded 10 parties not connected
as parlizans with either organization. The
want of the times, the duty of patriots, the
measure of in New York is the union oil al
conservative elements TO defeat MIR. Lin
! coin. we have reason to.believe, that th'
! Breckinridge organization, true TO It's pas
record, true TO it generous and pure devo
ton to the country, will abandon all techni
cal objections, will waive the assertions a
this time of It's just rights, will make sacri
fees forlthe common cause, and acqnlesc'
in and support the Cooper Institute Electo
raj Ticket as arranged on the Sd inst, b.

Germans and irish, Read, Pause and Reflect.

John M. Wilson, the author OF the fol-
lowing, a Lincoln Elector in Massachusetts,
some time ago addressed a Republican
meeting, ina speech of considerable length,
from which we make the following extracts.
The German or Irishman, who can read
this and then vote for Lincoln, has very
little self-respect:
''In the heart of the foreigner beats not
one single noble impulse-not one single
throb of patriotism. He is SO british and
degraded that he has no sympathy for any
thing but cabbage and lager, potatoes and
buttermilk, or some other abominable out
landish dish, only fit for hogs of the street
or pen.
''Some tell you .hat many foreigners are
intelligent yes intelligent How IN the
name of the Almighty God can they say ii
Look at the Dutchman smoking his pipe,
and if you can see ray of intelligence in
thai dirty, idiotic looking face of his, show
Fit to me. Look at the drunken, bloa.ed
Irishman, with his rot-gut whiskey bottle
in his pocket, and he drunk and swearing
and reeling, and shows not in that polluted
face one spark of morality, intellect or edu-
cation The idea is absurd-it is prepos
terous.
"We must change the laws of the land,
and prevent these ignorant, degraded pau
pers here from voting and holding Office
They are set of unprincipled villains and
ruffians, who congregate in and around our
large cities and villages, and live by steal
ing from the American.
"WouId you have the American to stand
back, and let a bloated lrishman vote in
stead OF yourself See the wretch as he
approaches-his knees knocking and the
slobber of tobacco running down his jaws,
! and as he comes, you hear him hurrah for
cDimocracy," and here he comes fresh
from the bogs, just one year ago, and wants
10 vo,e-and because the boys cry 'move
him. and Re gets knocked down for his i'm
pudence, great cry is made about it by ole
line demagogues. | say it is right, LET
| them stand back.
"Again you see loP cared, wide
mouthed, mullet- t-headed Dutchman coming
uu from the land of Krout, with the foam oi
of beer still sticking 10 his horse-tail whis
kers, and his whiskers and his breath smell
ing of gaIlick and onions enough 10 kill {
white man three hundred yards, and befor,
he can say anything in the world but Dim
ocrat' he must vote, and that vote counts
as much as yours or mine. This is outra
eeous and abominable. These foregner'
that have carried elections for old liners
will have 10 learn their places. They hav
no more right to vote :han the brutes of th
field, aud have not hall the sense OF goo
Newfoundland dog and God knows, wer
candidate for any office, would te
these paupers and vagabonds; these vile
dirty, degraded, and idio;ic foreigners | dl
not want their votes, and if ever am
candidate, hope 10 God | never will &c
them."

Democratic Meeting at Rohrsburg.

On Tuesday evening the I'd ult, an i'm
mense concourse of people assembled in
.he upper part of Mr.. - Appleman's
wheelwright shop The building is 45 feet
long and about % wide, and was crowded
TO excess. At the least calculation there
were 700 people present. They strung into
Rohrsbarg on foot, in wagons, in busgies,
on horseback, and every other conceivable
method of travelling. Not only was the

townships of Pine, Jackson, Benton and
Orange, sent in their delegations.
The meeting was organized by appoint
ing JUDGE EVANS President, assisted by a
number of Vice Presidents, and Secretaries.
After the preliminary business was g OF
along with, CHARLES B. BRooKwAY, of thi S
place, was called upon Tor speech. He
responded in a speech of over an hours
length. His address was received with a
great deal of cheering, and no doubt had a
good effect.
E. H. LITTLE, Esq, was next called for,
aud addressed the audience for abont one
hour, in logical and argumentive speech.
The Democracy appeared TO be inspired
with a new kind of enthusiasm after listen
ing 10 these speeches, and left for their
homes with determination TO leave moth
ing undone 10 secure the success OF The
glorious old Democratic cause. On adj
journing, three cheers were given, for our
nominees, which made The building shake

The Queen and the Prince.

When very young, she was rickelty and
weak in the ankles, but was recovered by
healthy training. She was brought up al
sea side, at Ramsgate, her ankles pumped
on, and sea bathing resorted TO. She was
very benevolent; when she rode abroad
which was on horseback, and often, her
purse always returned empty. She had
and sill has good appetite. Her mother
carefully inculcated in her love for The
Protestant religion. She learned German,
French and Italian perfectly, knew little
Spanish, and was an accomplished must
clan and vocalist. AT the age OF lS, on
June 20, 1897, she became queen, IN con
sequence of the death of her uncle, William
Nv. Lord Melbourne and the Duke OF
Wellington proved excellent advisers TO the
queen. They dined with her every day,
ard being old gentlemen, would sometimes
drop asleep over their wine, when she
would tickle their noses. Very soon Lord
Melbourne thought she should be married
and, on his stating it in diplomatic lang
uage, she did not understand him, and re-
nlied "Let me have the Duke OF Willing
ton p' Explanation being offered, she ob'
iected 10 her cousins of Cumberland and
Cambridge, and suggested "poor Albert .
Il proved a happy choice, as the young
prince makes an excellent husband. Il
was said that the queen liked Lord ElPhin
stone, but he was sent 10 Madras, 10 ge
him out of the way. The young couple
started in life with mutual income
$3.50, 900. 1t was not too much they
brought up their family on it, without call
ing for separate allowance for aEy
them.
