The Slaughter of Animals for Food.

/
There are certain facts concerning the kill
! ling Of tie animals. which form 50 large =
portion OF our food; that should be knowz to
every meat buyer, If not meat cater, because
they affect the condition of the meat is
healthfulness and keeping qualities. Our
own attention has been particularly directed
to this subject of opening an immense slaugh-
ter house near the city Of New Yerk, by capi.
talists and butchers of Chicago. The new
Abattoir is in fact regular slaughter house
for all kinds OF animals, on larger scale
than any existing there,
| The old fashioned way Of killing beeves
was to knock them in the head with pole-as,
then cut their throats, and while bleeding
commence skinn,ns sne singing W their
hind legs.
Our butchers were slow to learn ofthc Jews,
who practiced throwing and slinging the an>
imal aud then cutting his throat, and in this
way securing the most perfect possible bleed
ing and following the Mosaic command, tho
blood thereof, which is the life thereof shalt
ing very similar practice, modifying it by
hitting the beast merciful rap now and then
on the head, to destroy CONSEQUENCES. In this
way the beef bleeds better. ~ ALI the hlsod OF
the hind quarter At least tends to the throat.
There is a serious objection to knocking
beeves in the head. The shock TO the nerv
Gus system is such as to cause tremor and
rigidity in the muscles, although it is ths par.
Of humanity ~ pat the poor beasts rs soon as
possible in y condition Of consciousness
But this is . serious hiadrancc to free
bleeding.
European butchers have long prac ticsd what
is called .ssprisking down" and this has also
been done or tried in this country. It ooa-
sists in driving narrow knife blade by IN
instantaneous 1notisa between the head aud
the'frst vertebra, piercing the spinal marrow.
This destroys all sense, and paralyses all the
muscles.
When An animal is in this condition it mus Il
be slung up by the hind legs at once, when
the blood will flow quite ~ if the animal Was
conscious.
This method therefore, combines tho excel
lence OF the Hebrew way and the humanity
Of the knocking down process,
When an animal is killed. during or soon
after fright or great heat Or exhaustioi.
it rarely biecds we'll, the meat is bloody and
feverish; it soon spoils and Is besides very
unhealthy. sf

when the aninal 10 suddenly, in full eonseisps-
ness, slang by ono or both hind leRa, and
which lasts until il dies, hiss any hsd s6sss

is so evident that We think it ought "a he iut-

The GREAT SOLAR ECLIPSE. On Wednes.

THE GREAT Solar ECLIPSE. On Wednes,
day morning last, the leading astronomers. OF
the old world were doubtless studying with
telescopes and the various other appliances OF
modern science, the great solar eclipse
Throughout Europe the preparations to wit
mes this phenomenon have been for mon tbs
progressing. Nearly all the European govern
ments have sent the best scientific expeditions
to the scene Of the eclipse The New York
Herald referring TO this eclipse remarks: "The
eclipse will commence to-day soon after sunrise,
near Alden, on the Red Sea, pass through In
dia and the Malay peninsula during the fore
noon and terminate in the evening in New
Guinea and the Oriental islands. The black
shadow, which will be upwards of one hun.
dred and forty miles in diameter, and surroun-
dea by a.. penumbra four thousand miles in
width, will sweep from the eastern portion OF
Africa across the Arabian Sea, Indian PENN
sula and East Indian Archipelago-an extent
of over eight thousand miles. When this black
shadow IS trayersing the East Indian Archi-
peago will be the moment Of the most COM
piete eclipse The observation Of the sun
will endure fully six minutes and fifty seconds
in India and seven minutes at Saigon, permit
ting the savans who set out from Europe to
note its time, to record with accuracy its mani
testations-an advantage not heretofore pre-
sented in consequence of the space of time OF
endurance Of the eclipses being much more
brief, the phases previously noticed not exceed
ing three or four minutes"
