hguration: This was a grand eAort, and not
only did IT exhibit unusual and extraordinary
power, but also declared for itself that the min.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE LEGISLATIVE INvESTI-
eating COMMITTEE.


eating COMMITTEE.
After our report of the proceedings before the
Long committee investigating the magistrates
and constables closed yesterday, Officers Clay
ton and Berkeley corroborated the testimony of
Mr. Gatchel as TO the treatment and condition
OF the horses of Samuel Huntress. who was fined
by Justice Reese for alleged cruelty to animals
They added that the nigh horse was CALLED, and
had swollen legs, and was unfit for work; that
they locked the driver in the station-hOuse
until Mrs. Huntress sent the money for his fine
and costs, which she did in the course of the
day, and Berkeley took Ii over to Justice Keese's
office and paid if over to him-S5 fine and 81
cost. Officer Clayton remembered hearing the
application for change of venue; it was while
ne was testifyiDg as prosecuting witness, being
the one who had ordered the arrest The JUS
tice refused it on the ground that the testimony
had already commenced. Remained in court
until the trial was concluded, and heard no
motion for appeal. Smith paid 800 on account
OF the fine, and became security for the bal
ance- So and costs of $3.50.
Justice Reese testified to the same facts in re-
iatlon to the trial, and exhibited the warrant on
Which huutress was arrested, showing that ii
was separate and distinct charge from that on
which the driver was fined, and stated that he
mad considered 1t an aggravated case of cruelty
10 animals, fully deserving the fine imposed
he had not charged the driver full costs be-
cause he was poor man.
