The Humanity Of Cobble-stones.

The Humanity of CObble- stones.
AUGUST BELMONT, Henry Grinnell, and w. c.
II. Waddell, Special Committee of the New
York Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals, have published a report which puts
the disadvantage of the present system of
pavement in an entirely new light. The Com
mittee declare in favor of the Nicholson pave
ment, because the oobble stones inhict a cause
less, wanton pain upon the horses After
treating of the merits of the case, they saw
"The oval stones OF the street and the daan
depression formed between them, make IL Inn
possible Tor the horse to find a fiat resting
place for his foot or any two like places or
Uniform surfaces upon which to tread with
assurance and confidence. Thus his feet are
being continually wrenched from side to side,
while the upward oval projections of the stones
are continually pressing against and bruising
the frog of the foot, on which no pressure
should be aIowed; which is not only inhuman
TO the horse, but destructive to his usefnlness
TO man. The free and easy stepping of the horse
depends much upon the assura a ce a afforded him
by a level and uniform roadway He soon ac-
quires the muscular habit, or habit of motion
adapted to the thoroughfare on which he travels;
but where there is no uniformity of surface he
acquires no feeling of con ddence or habit of an
easy mechanical movement. The free and
upon a flat surface and foothold, but upon his
assurance of finding his foothoid just on the
spot where the foot may fall. A horse submit
ted to uncertain foothold and indefinite Sliding
soon acquires mixed and hobbling gait, and
consequently suffers Wnll0 UNDERGOING such
abuses; and the Russ and Belgian payements
do not obviate this evil; and although not pre-
cisey germane to these remarks, this pave
ment would cause an absence of noise and a
consequent prolonging of human life."
We commend this idea to the gentlemen
who met on Monday in thedBoard of Trade
Rooms. This is a new reason for having the
improved kind of pavement recommended and
the idea of each member of the new Society
subscribing a trife of $1,000 per capita for the
purpose of relieving the dumb brutes, would
be good one. Should any cause, however,
delay the immediate carrying out of the idea,
we would suggest that petition be presented
to the Commissioner of Highways, requesting
him to keep the cobble-stones in their places,
and not have a small mountain or a series of
pitfalls, like those just now at Third and
Chestnut streets. If the legs of the noble ami
NAL, the horse, or the nobler animal, man,
are not broken by the miniature fort and
abattis erected near us, it is because other gods
as well as Bacchus watch over the destinies of
man and beast.
