Cruelty 40 Wen and Women.

We need in New York "A society fol
the prevention Of cruelty 10 men and
women. The officers of the law hay,
proved themselves TO be inefficient for
this purpose. and we need some men.
acting for a powerful association, 10 do
for men, women, and children precisely
what Mr.. Bergh is doing for animals.
Children are over-worked. or are put To
work at too tender an age landlords are
mercenary and and compel poor tenants
to live in buildings that are unfit for
/ human residence: employers of de-
/ pendent women refuse fair payment for
work, and leave them without redress.
women are insulted in omnibuses and
/ horse-cars and by-places, and have no
protection. Men are beset by thieves i'm
broad day light, and robbed and mail
treated. We know of women who have
ridden past a dozen blocks i'm a public
conveyance, with a husband on one
side and a villain on the other, submit
ting TO insults from the latter all the
way, rather than endanger the life of the
former by complaint Ii has come To-
this in New \ ork, that women who are
supposed to be aiding under protection
feel compelled TO ignore insults in order to
save their protectors from danger. The
lesson Of the Foster case was q fearful
one.
The field for the operations of such
society as the one we propose is immense.
We have only indicated few of the evils
which it could do much to remedy.
Its office, of course, should be simply
auxiliary to that OF the authorities IL
Il. a
them. Ii should take hold Of old evils
and bring them TO destruction 1t
should stand behind every poor and
feeble man, and assist him to maintain
his rights 1t should see that every wo-
man has protection IN every thoroughfare
Of thi, great city. 1t should become vol /
unteer conscience TO the law itself, and
a stimulating influence upon all its off /
Gers. 1t should furnish moral impulse. /
money and brains, wherever they are
needed, to root out wrongs, bring criml- /
mails to justice, protect innocence and /
helplessness, and insist on the execution |
Of laws which the officers of the law re- /
gard with indifference or repugnance
There Is not an owner of "A horse IN New
York who does not feel the influence of /
Mr.. Bergh upon him, and who, when /
tempted to cruelty, does not look round .
him TO see whether any Of his officers .
are watching The same influence
brought to bear upon all who are tempt
ed to wrongdoing toward men, women,
and children, would repre~s a world of
crime every year. The eye of a gigantic
association, with a million dollar, at it,
back, watching everywhere about the
city, would be protection in itself; and
the hand Of such an association is just
as practicable and just rs Legitimate az
that for suppressing obscene literature or
any other nuisance. Who will move in
it, and take the quickest open opportu-
nifty for immortality?-Dr. +. c. Hol-
land, in Scribner's for may.

THE NEW POSTAL CARDS.

The Third Assistant Postmaster Gen
eral II. w. Barber has given notice
that the necessary appropriation having
been made for the purpose, the Depart
ment Will, on the first of May next, com
mence the issue to pOstmasters Or the
postal cards authorized by the Act Of
June Sth, 1872 The card adopted T.
five and one-eighth inches in length aud
three inchs in width, and is made Of good
stiff paper, water marked with the In
itials U. 5. p. O. D., in monogram.
The face of the card is engraved, sur
rounded By a border in scroll work one
eighth Of an inch in width The one
cent stamp printed ON the upper right
hand corner Is from a profile bust Of the
Goddess Of Liberty looking to the left
and surrounded bv lathe-wOrk border
with the words ~. :. Postage" inserted
above, and tone cent below.
On the upper left-hand corner are the
directions to 'write the address only on
this sipe-the message on the other.
Underneath, and occupying the lower
half Of the card are ruled lines on which
to write the address, the top line being
being prefxed with the word "To."
The back of the card, intended for
communication, is entirely plain, being
devoid even Of ruled lines In color, the
body Of the card is light cream, the
printing velvet brown. No variation in
size, shape. color, or any other particu-
lar, will be made from the regular style
to accommodate special cases; nor will
the department do any printing on the
cards beyond the engraving specified IN
the description.
Postal cards will be sold for one cent
each, neither more nor less, whether in
large quantities or in small
The object of the postal cards is to ia
cilitate letter correspondence and provide
for the transmission through the mails
at reduced rate Of postage, of short
communications, either printed or writ
en- in pencil or ink. They may therefore
be used for orders, invitations, notices,
receipts, Acknowledgements, and other
requirements Of business and social lite.
And the matter desired 10 print, or par
TALLY in both. In their treatment as
mail-matter they are to be regarded by
Eost masters the same as sealed letters,
and not as printed matter, except that
in no case will unclaimed cards be sent
TO the Dead Letter Office.
An ordinary printed business card
may be sent through the mails when
prepaid by one cent postage stamp at
tached; but such card must co1tain alb
solutely no written matter except the adj
dress. Otherwise it will be treated as
not fully prepaid, and refused admission
into the mails. l1

described, bearing embossed or printed
postage stamps, and purporting to be
