The following resolutions were then sub.
united, and after discussion adopted;
Resolced That the New York Neurological
Society respectfully protests against the re-
cent city ordinance requiring dogs to be muz
zled, as being contrary to science, ineflica.
cious in preventing hydrophobia, and cruel
in its requirements.
Res0lred That, in the opinion Of this socic-
ty, the most ctfectual means Of preventing the
Origination and spread OF hydrophobia is by
the imposition of a tax upon all dogs Kept
for use or pleasure; requiring the canine
teeth or tangs and the incisor teeth to be
blunted as proposed and effected by Bourrel,
and the destruction, under proper regulations
and by duly authorized persons, of all dogs
not licensed or which may be found with the
teeth unblunted,
The process of bunting the teeth of dogs
so as to render them incapable Of communi.
eating the poison is thus described:
The operation is simple one. For large
dog two assistants are necessary; for small
animal only one. The creature is seated on
a table, gag is fixed in the mouth between
the molar teeth by n band passed behind the
neck; another band or piece Of white tape
fastened around the mu2zle at the back OF the
gag prevents any movement of the jaws To
blunt their cisor teeth file is used and to
expedite the operation the longer canine
teeth or tangs are shortened by sharp nippers
and then smoothly rounded by the file. The
gag, of course, must be propOrtloned in thick
ness and length to the size OF the animal"

Fears Of q Famine in Kentucky.

A correspondent writes to the Louisville
Courier JoUradl from jamestown, on July =,
as follows:
Here in southern Kentucky we are on the
eye Of a famine which threatens to be very
serious, as well as in the western portion Of
Kentucky. Last year the season was so cX.
cesdingly wet that there was scarcely q half
crop raised, in consequence Of which our peo-
pie are suffering much, and already several
are reported to have starved to DEATH and
many others are living on bread alone.
Very carly this season our farmers made
vigorous efforts to pitch heavy crops, but
owing to the prOtracted wet weather and high
water were prevented from getting our best
lands in III due time, the rains continuing up
10 the 4th of May, since which time we have
had no rain to wet the land We have not
even been able TO raise any vegetables in our
gardens The oat crop was a complete fail.

amount of the corn is dead, and the remain
der IS fast drying up. With all the rain that
could fall 1t would not be possible to make
an average Of a barrel TO the acre. IS il j..
we will not make five barrels of corn to the
field.
For some time our people talkcda GOOD
deal about losing their stock, but now they
have lost all hopes Of that, and the only talk
IS, How shall we get bread and neat The
wheat was moderately good, but will all be
consumed in q short time, and we will be
left without anything to sustain life The
Cumberland River is not navigable, nor VIII
i, be for six months, and the nearest point

are without money, their horses and oxen 80

GAMBLING. COL William D. Coleman has
been found guilty Of forging the record book OF
the Commissioners of the Sinking Fund, aud
also appropriating to his own use certain
boods, part ard parcel Of that fund, aud has
been Sentenced TO the peuitentiary for four
years.
Thus has young man universally esteemed,
of high socia! position and deemed worthy OF
valuable public trusts, beeo brought low by the
gaming table and intcmperance.
The moral is plain enough without our
preaching Of it. All We have to say is that a
city like Richmond, which does not suppress
gambling houses, does not want to suppress
them. The police of every city kuow all about
these places, and they very earthly let them
alone.
If they are going to be a permitted evil, let
them be licensed and at least derive some rev.
enuc Tor the State from them. AS it is they
get all and pay nothing.
