A DEFECT SOMEwHERE.-Editor .S.1r: We
would like to inquire through your paper il
There should not be law made to punish sneak
thieves when caught under suspicious circnm-
stances Yesterday an instance happehed at
3.6 Pennsylvania avenue. Two notorious
thieves entered the house without ringing the
door bell, closed the door behind them and GRO
ceeded cautiously up stairs, but before the " AL
accomplished their object they were detected
and handed over to a worthy sergeant of the
police force, and detained until thik morning for
an examination. Witnesses appeared against
them, but it was ruled that there was no law to
deal with suspected thieves. We AJAX. should
not there be some law to reach these thieves?
Give those sneaking Villains license TO enter
any house, and, if detected. they know that
they will he discharged, as these thieves yester-
day boosted that they would be all right to-day.
as there was no stolen property found Ola them
which they had taken from the house.

Alleged Cruelty to Animals.

WHAT THE =. z. &. A. Is DOING.
during the past two weeks Mr.. Gatchel. pre-
sidcnt of the 5. Z. c. A, has in various WAYS
ameliorated the sufferings of seven WORKOUT
horses that had been abandoned in various
parts OF the city. George Sprague, arrested by
Mr.. G. i'm the 1st ward some two weeks ago for
abandoning horse, was by Justice Donaldson
hned $50 and costs. and in default was commit
ted to jail until yesterday, when Mr.. G.. had him
released. On Thursday Mr.. G. arrested An
drew Rolley, on 9th street, near New York ave
nue., for the alleged driving Of a crippled and
starved horse, and Alexander Jones, for work
ing horse i'm a similar condition on 18th street
corner OF q street; in each case the animal was
immediately taken out OF harness. David

had the animals taken from the vehicle
to their stable, and the accused before Justice
Reese. The accused, in answer to the charge
OF cruelty, said that he was employed by SAINT
Huntress, and that the animals had been work ed
in the same condition as Mr.. G. had found them
in for several weeks; fined IS and costs. Mr.. G.
at once swore out warrant for Huntress, who
responded yesterday, and had his hearing post

vIvR LA FRANcE.-As will be seen BY the an
nouncement under our advertising head. DR. y.
j.. Chapelle, ID. D., the learned pastor of St
.IosePh's church, Baltimore, will lecture i'm the
English language at Odd Fellows Hall Seventh
street, on Tomorrow Sunday evening on
France and Modern Civilization" for the
Leneft of the Young Catholics Friend Society
The subject is one of deep interest and will be
handled in scholarly and interesting manner
Dr. Chapelle is a Frenchman, but speaks the
English language with great fuency, he is tho
oughly familiar with the inviting theme that he
has chosen. and the lecture will be both in
structive and edifying. The high reputation
Of the Reverend lecturer, combined with the at
tractiveness of his subject. ought to dnaw a very
large and intelligent assemblage. Much is
written and spoken nowadays about France
and Modern Civilization that would have been
more pertinent to the earlier ages of barbarism.
1t will be the province of the Rev. Doctor to test
some of the popular errors Of the times in the
crucible OF truth, and to show that France has
been foremost in producing and developing
whatever there is grand or glorious In modern
civil zatiOn.
