P Cattle In the Highway.

Our readers well know our views
on the subject of animals running at
large In the highways-the rights of
the owners of property fronting ON
public highways-and the law bear
ing upon the question: We have
long been of opinion that there Ia no
power possessed by any borough or
township, or even the Legislatsre, TO
authorize the highways to become
public pasture grounds; that the
grass, trees, fruits, minerals, etc.,
upon land occupied by O public
thoroughfare, and given up only for
that puYpose-that is q mere right of
way-belong to the original proprie-
tor, and still owner In fee of the land,
as much as that growing upon any
part of his enclosed farm.
From an article in an agricultural
journal in the State Of New York, by
correspondent, we quote the follow
ing paragraph, which completely
sustains our views:
"No town can legalize, by vote or
resolution. the running at large of
animals In highways. The highway
belongs to the adjacent owners OF
lands, and the grass in them belongs
to the owner, and to no other person.
Cattle are trespassers feeding in the
highways, as much as inside the
fences on the farm Of the owner OF
the soil. The public have only the
right of way, or easement, in the
highways, and own nothing-soil or
trees or grass-upon them. It is
doubted, even, that o Legislature
could pass q constitutional law to al
low animals to run at large In the
highways-theyc cannot take my grass
to feed The cattle Of my aeigh6ors."
That's it; and we call the atten-
ton of all owners of property to the
fact. They have the pO,0er clearly
with them; and If they desire this
intolerable annoyance removed, they
have only to combine, form township
associations, and dct--act boldly and
vigorously. In such event, q single
season would be sufficient to make
road>cattle as scarce as elephants. . 4
The decision of one of the county
courts In the Interior of New York Is
to the same effect as the above, and
we have no doubt but that the same
decision would be made by q similar
court in our own State. All that Is
is necessary is to bring the question
fairly before it, Germantown 7elle-

papers. Here are few that q laugh
or two may be found in: = rE#
In the office of New York paper
there stood I'm type the report of a
sermon and . paragraph about the
career Of mad dog. In "making

readers of the paper next day were
astonished by the following melange
.'The Rev. James Thomson preached
to large audience last Sunday
This was his last sermon previous to
his embarkation for Europe. He ex-
horted his brethren and sisters, and
after offering devout prayer, took q
within to cut up some frantic freaks,
He ran up Smith street to Brown,
and down Carr to College. At this
stage of the proceedings some boys
seized him, tied a tea-kettle to his
tail and let him go. A great crowd
gathered, and for few moments
there was lively scene" ".rms.oa
The Titusvilfe, Va, HeralH states
that "a few days since one of our
wsll-to-do oil operators, who has
lived long and prospered, and has q
few quarts of spot oil on hand, In
cases of emergency, received letter
written in delicate feminine hand
from an eastern city, in which the
fair writer said: Il hear you are very
wealthy, and would not miss q few
