TRAVEL IN THE STREETS. The c0ndi-
ton Of the streets is very trying to horses
and mules. 1t is difficult for them to get
foothold on rising ground TO draw their
burthens. Owners of teams, therefore,
should take care, first, that their animals
should be rough shod, and second, that
even then they should not be overloaded.
At no time are the draught animals more
severely tried than at sucn season as
this. Overheating now is attended with
very great peril. Pneumonia is very
common disease among horses and though
with care after the disease appears, the
horse seldom dies, he is hardly ever so
good afterwards as he was before the
attack. A man will thus often, for the
sake of few cents increased compensa-
tion in transporting load, iDjure perma-
nently valuable animal thus sustaining
a loss that great deal of work wi ii be re-
quired to reimburse. There are other
modes of injury to these valuable animals
at such time, and owners and teamsters
cannot be too careful of them.
Then there are sleigherS-more properly
slayers-who have little mercy upon the
horse. The pleasure of sleighing, as pur-
sued here, is very costly. 1t impairs Sc
riously the value Of many horses and II
is we'll for that noble race that the sleigh
ing season is short, or ne would be an aw-
ful sufferer.
Every kind master to his horse will take
care that after dashing excursion over
the snow he shall be put under cover,
rubbed dry, and comfortably lodged, with
good bed at night. No service demands
more care and consideration for horse
We would intercede with the police in be-
half Of the horse, and beg them to inter
fere for his protection whenever they see
him subjected to cruel and unusual pun
ishment.

Vance, "pinny- Snowman" was arralgned
to answer the charge of being drunk ana
disordcrly on the street. Vance came up
with most wo-begone look, and com
menccd a detailed account Of his spree,
which his Honor would not hear through.
Vance went back to the box, looking as il
he was going TO be hung, and wondherin
if there was my frindly gintlcman in the
house who would go his security" At the
winding up of the docket Vance addressed
the following pathetic appeal to his Honor :
"Bless your heart, my dear Mayor, but II
yez will only let me 90 this time Ill niver
tech anithcr drop o. liquor these twelve
months plidgc you my personal sit for
that; and if anither drop goes between
my lips hope yell punish me severely"
every WE'LL" said his Honor, /" | take you
at your word, and if you are brought back
here will punish you." "Thats right,
you dear Honor, you," rejoined Vance !;
"May the Lord stand between you and
HARM" As he reached the railing he
turned around with coun:enauce bespeak-
ing a doubt as 10 whether or not he should
look pleased, and exclaimed: " Good morn
ing to ycz, gintlcmcn.
John Hickey, charged with being drunk
and disordcrly and trcspassing on the
premises of Mr.. McGovan, on Brook
avenue, was discharged with warning.

negro was arraigned for breaking into
John McBridc's trunk and stealing there
from lot Of clothing. The case was con-
tinued until tomorrow morning, in order

Grace street near Ninth with cart-load
Of wood, his shaft mule fell, the shafts
were broken short off, and the wood and
the driver were split out. We made every
attempt to find out the name, family, and
whereabouts of the aforesaid countryman
and his mule, but all in vain. We sent
out reporters and messengers, blew horns
and rang bells, but "nary name" could we
obtain. If We couldn't, how could We?
Two horses attached to country wagon
ran off down Main street, and freedman,
in attempting to stop them, w"s knocked
down. Being struck upon the head, of
course he escaped unhurt. No damage
was done to either the horses or wagon.
4 horse attached TO a sleigh slipped and
fell on the corner of Ninth and Main
