A LADY of considerable wealth In Eng
land was recently brought up, at theIin-
stance Of the Society for the Prevention
OF Cruelty to Animals, for having III trea-
ted a large number of cats and dogs. The
defendant left home, on ajourney, leaving
forty.three dogs and some thirty cats in
care of two servant girls, who were pro-
ceeded against on this charge, bat were
dismissed as not being the responsible per.
sons. They now gave evidence, and sta
ted that they had been left by tho delen-
dant without money, and the tradesmen
refused to supply them with food either
for themselves or for the dogs and cats. A
veterinary surgeon, called in as evidence,
stated that he went to the defendants res.
idence on behalf OF the Society, and found
the house in frightful state Of tilthiness,
and a great number Of cats and dogs run
ming up and down in state observation.
One OF them was dead, aud some others
were hardly able TO move for weakness.
The servant girls said the dogs had eaten
the fowls, and some Of the cats and dogs
had eaten each other. The magistrate
fned the lady $25 and costs amounting to
5000, adding that if she was ever brought
up again on 4 similar charge she would
be sent to'piison without the option OF a
fine. ~

ONE Of the features Of the recent cam
paign in this city was the Registers per-
sonal abuse OF a number Of Democrats
who were prominently and actively sup
porting Gov. JACOB One Of these was
Mr.. W. II. OxToBY, who, il anybody, was,
by reason OF friendly offices running
through years, entitled to courteous treat
ment at the hands Of that journal, Mr..
OxToBY, as Secretary Of the JACOB Couu-
ty Committee and as chief editor Of the
Daily Democrat, rendered valuable service
10 the anti-Ring cause, and was therefore
made special target for vituperation. A
day or two before the election, the Register
referred to him CONTEMPORARY as "a po-
litical dead beat" Mr.. OxToDY can very
well answer that by pointing to the vote
in his township Washington and in this
county, and ask, who is the "dead beat"
nowP 1t seems no more than justice to
Mr.. OxToBY TO refer now, after the fight,
to the creditable part he had in it; to
say that he ended the arduous labors Of
the brief campaign by standing all day at
the polls in his township; and that the
verdict ofhis fellow citizens, among whom
his lie has been spent, is all the vlndlca.
ton he needs. II the other members Of
the JACOB Committee had managed their
townships as well as the townshipsoI the
Secretary and President Of the Club were
managed, the county would doubtless
haYe done still better than il did.

THE steubenyille Herald has been In.
dulging some little censure of the INTEL.
GENcER lately because we supported IA.
COB, Qnd. DENY for Governor, as against
the Democratic nominee. We thought we
knew what we were about; and 1t affords
US pleasure TO find that the Herald IS
now of that opinion. The Herald rejOices
that JACOBS election "smashes up the
Democratic party OF the State iearfully
aud gives It to GRANT and WILSON in
November, beyond all human probsbili
ty." From the Heralds own standpoint
this is vindication enough Of our course.

Solar specuIations.

Inthe midst Of a hot political canvass

10 science, and rebukes those writers who
are always talking of some terrible calam.
ity in our solar system, because one sum.
mer Is regarded as a little warmer than
another. 1t says: "a
And as 10 the SUMS burning up, these
writers seem to forget one scientific prin-
cIple that Is absolute throughout the uni.
verse-the indestructibility OF matter.
Matter changes form but Is never destroy

house burns up and the matter Of which
it is composed changes its form into car.
bon, ashes and gas, it is to all intents and
purposes destroyed. And so il the sun
passes, through combustion, into the form
of an incombustible aud vagrant gas, so
far as the earth is concerned in the mat
ter, 1t is burned up and destroyed. But
It has been found in the history of the
universe matter, when 1t changes form,
takes form in which it may be reabsorb.

was before, in substance somewhat kin.
dred to It's former condition. Thus our
earth, Notwithstanding all the commissions
Of nature, the burnings and the drown
iDgs, and what's not of less moment, the
constant action OF silent and normal
forces, has not lost the weight OF a grain
for more thousands OF years than the
ablest scientific men will venture TO COM
pute. |
We arc sptto remember those very hot
days and nights which lately oppressed
us as, the severest Of our lives, because
our memory does not keep faithful record
Of such as have passed away. Heat and
cold, like everything else, is about equal
ly distributed throughout the years, and
this distribution is in obedience to the
eternal law Of order.
