CRUELTY To ANIMALs.-Sometimes we think we
need a Burgh among us, when we see the heartless
way in which dray horses are treated by their
drivers. Last Monday we observed a dray coming
up Fort street, with a full load of frewood, which
the not over stout horse had great difficulty in
dragging through the miry street. Indeed, the
distressed condition of the animal as his driver
urged him along, attracted general attention from
passers by. Gov. Dominis coming along just then,
ordered the man to take off half his load.

went in where that stove was, re-
solved to make her draw and burn
if it took all the pine fence in the
ward.
Our companion threw quilt over
her and shiveringly remarked that
she never knew what real solid COM
fort was until she got coal stove.
Stung by the sarcasm in her re-
mark, we turned every dingus in
the stove that was moveable, or
looked like il had Eanything' to do
