From the New York Sun. Dec. g.
On Thursday Mr.. Bergh visited the
show at the rink. Bergh and Barnum
have met before, and fierce have been
the battles between them. Barnum
would insist upon feeding his reptiles
upon live pigeons and rabbits, and
Bergh vowed that he should not. Bergh
had the Sun to back him, and won, but
Jersey, and there fed them as he
pleased. The humanitarian had not
got two yards beyond the entrance be-
fore he was spotted, and offers of re-
served seats were made by one of the
officials but Mr.. Bergh had paid his
half dollar and was independent. All
the live animals were visited and their
cages inspected. The great African
Gland was found in small cavern
without room to turn around, and the
sacred Burme,e bull was in like pre-
dicament. The royal Abyssinan lions,
the South African tigers and leopards
were found better located, and they APP
peared better contented. A fierce spot
ted hyena attracted Mr.. Bergh's atten-
ton. He was chained down within
eight inches of the floor of his cage. In
the next compartment was beautiful
ly marked leopard, and the hyena had
torn down portion of the wooden par
| titions to enable him to scrape an ac-
ouaintance with his neighbor. Long
nails had been driven through the par
tition to keep off the hyena. Mr.. Bergh
requested that the chain might be
heightened so as to allow the beast to
stand upright. 1t appeared that the
animal sometimes got ugly, and was
then chained down. The ant,eaters
and the happy family were then in
spected, and their treatment and lodg-
ings were approved of. Altogether,
Mr.. Bergh thought the animals were
well cared for, though confined in
smaller cages than were needful.
The circus was also visited, and a
bare back rider nearly came to grief for
lashing his horse, splendid grey, over
the nose with the but of his whip. He
had little boy in his arms, four years
old, a poor little mass of what appeared
to the spectator flexible india rubber
by the manner in which he was twisted
about. This rider will be watched, and
if he treats his nag in the same manner
that part of the performance will be
abruptly closed and the noble equestri-
an will be hauled off some cold night in
his feshings and lodged in the York
vile ice cellar.
