-----------------a----a "Crueity to Animals"

MILTON, Dec. %, 1875
 MR. EDrroR:-T subscriber having read of case of arrest for Cruelty to Animals in this town would like to ask through the columns of your paper how we are going to break our colts so that we can use them, or are we to give them up entirely? as horse that will not obey it's master is entirely useless, yesl worse than useless; for they are an expense from which we derive no benefit.
 But what I meant to ask is this, ssIs there any way to teach colts to work with. out the use of the 'persuader?' If so, will anyone tell us how? Some of us get our living by tRat trdde but we dare not any longer for fear of arrest. Or must we charge enough for our services to afford to be arrested two or three times 6 day simply for teaching colts to Ego alongi when we tell them to? We would learn another trade if the people did not say Colts must be blpken. if they are raised. : io ssa, si 0 CoLr-BRRAKKR

West Goshen.

Goshenites are proverbially set down as being Q staid, unavoidable people. But there are circumstances under which they can be moved; as was proven on Christ mas eve, when the M E. Church was fill cd 0ith an audience of all ages from the infant of days to the grey haired sires and matrons of seventy-fve, many of whom came two or three miles throughthe driv; ing sonth easeerly snow storm A~
 The attraction was the Christmas enter tainment under the supervision of Super intendent Birdsey T. Howe and his effi> cient corps of helpers. The ladies had beautifully decorated the church with ev- ergrecns and two Christmas trees were heavily laden with fruit of all descriptions and, which required nearly two hours. gin it's distribution. One pleasing feature was gift of copy of the Bible to each member of the Sunday school. Rev. Mr. Stevens received over forty dollars in cash. - s-aAk- -s-- .'- -'- '$ "'' 'A'A@
 Rev. Mir. Hammond gave a short but interesting address, followed by the pas tor. Mir. Stevens said he wished to make few remarks on a subject not connected with the object of this gathering. 'He had learned within few days that be had been preaching for nearly three years near the grave of Col. Ethan Allen Tn Cornwall This made him feel some inches taller. Another fact in connection with the mat ter made him feel sad. almost indignant; there was no monument to mark the rest ing place of the old hero. He earnestly hoped that the Centenary. year of 1876 would not pass by Without a suitable monument being erected to the memory of the hero of Ticonderoga. He suggested that Cornwall and Goshen might unite in this work"

alrcadFmentioned the loss Of large number OF
eLecp in tho hills back of Mission San Jose, bee
longing to Mr. Ashurst, but wAs misioformed as
10 tho thode Of their death. II was not by rush
lug down nEecip,cc, but In another and most
aipGulnr way that tho misfortune occurred.
Tho sheep, TO tho number Of about $780, we're
quietly feeding on hill about miles east Of
RIieson San Josc. on Sunday afternoon. July 1.
when man, who lad hecn short time working
fot tue owners Of the Hhoer, suddenly uttered j
1o,p yell. whirh hsd tho effect Of frightening
tic sheep. Tloy Immediately commenced rub-
Mug down bill ~ fast Az they could. Al Or ntar
tho bottom OF tho hull large patch Of poison
oak was craving, and they ruahed pe!l.me'l int,
1t. 1ieto their idgs got 10 entangIetI that they
could not move. Meanwhile the others bol,lBa
cano rushing down tpou them, uhtll they "csc
ptlod In tasers, sir deep. one upon the other.
Of course. tho moat Of them were soon bufFo-
catcu and dead.
