Cardinal Manning on FoIeranOn.

Cardinal Manning, in reply to letter
addressed to him by Methodist at Harro-
gate, says: $50 far as l know, the English
Catholics have made no representation to
the government OF Spain in reference to
the Protestants in that country. So far as
l knoT theslaws in Spain do not extend to
the private conscience or belief Of any one,
but restrain only the public propagation Of
religious tenets or worship at variance with
the religion OF the Spanish people. Under
these circumstances no Catholic would con-
slider any representation to be justified
The Spanish people are united in faith and
religion, and are fully justified in preserv-
ing their country and their households
from the miseries Of religious conflict. And
believing as they do that this unity of
faith and worship is divine law, they hold
it to beNof the highest obligation to trans
NIT it faithfully to their children. If the
Catholics in England were a majority to-
morrow, they would molest no one in the
matters Of religion by civil laws. In a
pamphlet written by me last year in answer
to Mr., Gladstone, you will find this mora

Omnibus TTorses OrParI..

The omnibus horses of Paris are almost
invariably animals Of exceptional size and
beauty, strong white or dappled-gray stall
hens, selected with great care in the mark
cts of Normandy, Perche. or Brittany.
They are well fed, carefully trained. and
never over-worked. Each omnibus has ten
horses belonging to it. These ten horses
go out every day; thus, during the four
teen hours Of labor, the horses are changed
five times. Being thus carefully managed
their strength and speed endure during
long years Of service. 1t is not uneom-
mon to see horses that have been in the
service Of the company for fifteen years.
and they are still capable of going
through their daily task. Great care is
taken not to overstrain their strength. At
the foot of each Of the hills that diversity
the streets Of Paris there are thirty one OF
these hills) an extra horse is always wait
ing to aid in dragging the heavy vehicle up
the ascent. Nor is the moral side, so to
speak, of their training neglected. The
pairs once formed are never broken, save
in case Of accident or sickness; they oceU-

and powerful animals have become almost
proverbal. The ease with which they
thread their way through the crowded
streets encumbered with vehicles, thronged
with foot passengers, and in many instances
scarce wider than our narrow alleys, and
the readiness with which they stop at q

simply marvellous. Next to the petted

San Francisco News Letter.
A CURIOUS INTIMACY.
A man who sleeps in his stable an
Claims 10 understand horse talk.

There is retired trainer, named Long,
residing on a small farm in Alameda coun-
+ ty, who lives for nothing else but the
pleasure OF being near horses. He eats his
meals in the stable, oftimes passes the
night in the stall with favorite pony, and
among the equine pets is a mare who whin-
nerS IN answer every time he speaks to her.
Our informant relates that the most per-
feet understanding exists between Mr..
Long and at least three out of five horses
IN the stable. The two are recent additions
but even in their case the affinity is seen in
a lesser degree.
The training of horses, their obedience,
dOcility, and tricks in a circus, are no nov
city; all of US have seen a horse fire a pis-
tol, stand on two legs, waltz, lie down with
Its trainer, and perform hundred acts of
sagacity, but these are simply the result of
patient training and systematic correction.
what Mr.. Long claims is far more astOund-
ing. de asserts that from life long init
macy with horses he understands their
speech; he goes further, and declares that
their nasal, cultural, explodent and unob-
structed sounds have different meaning,
are used by the coalition of the brain and
vocal organs, and that not only do his IA
vorite horses understand him, but that ev-
cry sound they utter, is perfectly plain to
him. When arguing with him, that
though he might comprehend the meaning
Of the sounds emanating from the vocal
chords Of horse, yet it was patent i'm
possibility for horse to under stand the
English language, he replied: ''Living,
eating, sleeping with my horses has given
me the knowledge possess, and the same
intimacy has acquired for my horses the
power / claim for them" Here, turning
to slender, light built gray pony, he said |:
BILLY, we are talking of you, it. you under
stand what am saying, turn your head
round on the off side" The pony did so,
and then resumed his feed ''Billy," he
continued, ''tell me your age, how long
you have lived here, and on which side of
you is your friend Vesta?" The pony
whinnied for about two minutes consecu-
lively, and then, being loose in his stall,
walked into the adjoining one occupied by
the mare, Vesta. '.Now," he continued,
do YOU and Billy go down to the trough
and drink while l make up your beds. ="
Vesta and Billy walked quietly out and
proceeded direct to the trough.
While they were out, Mr.. Long carried
on an animated conversation with roam
gelding about fifteen hands high, Vestas
neighbor on the other side. The name of
the horse was Policy, and after talking to
him some minutes about some fault he had
committed the day before, he ordered Mr..
Policy to lie down and not to get up before
Vesta and Billy had returned. Our inform
ant saw but little in this to prove Mr..
Longs claims, as many horse will lie
down at the word of command; but when,
without further word, Policy arose and
walked out to the water-trough, after the
return Of the other two horses, the subject
became as difficult of solution as before.

Apples.

How sorrowfnl to think the old-fashion-
ed ''apple cut" is now fallen into desuet1de
At least, it must be a primitive place in
deed where it is now kept up. or can
be enjoyed as Of old. 1t cannot breathe the
atmosphere Of the electric telegraph, and
its news was somewhat differently collected
and sent out. 1t was a picture worthy the
genius and fidelity Of Dutch painter; but
doubt If any artist has ever painted It.
There sat the hired man, with his coat on,
astride the chair and apple parer, forklng
on The fruit, which he turned swiftly
around with his right hand, while holding
his knife on with his left. The scalped and
denuded APPLES usually fell into an ancient
washtub, and the boys and girls, for old
and Young together, sat in q circle, quar-
tering and coring them in piepans or in
wooden bowls. After the work was all end
ed, and a barrel or more had been prepared
to dry, the games, the frolie and the mer-
riment, began. While the elders were pres
ent the party was trifle more SOBER and
gossip took the place Of fun. 1t was on one
Of these occasions OF which Mr.. Burro ughs
speaks, where so many things were cut and
dried beside apples"

The premises of Mrs. Mary Burns,

posite Chestnut street, were the scene Of
occurances yesterday afternoon, the ae-
count of which is enough to give one the
chills. It was about 1880 o'clock when DIR.
r. F. Baker called at the house Of Mrs,
Burns, to attend to her son Ned, aged sew
en- years, who had been attacted and Sc
verely injured by a ferocious boar, the
beast had wandered in to the yard from
somewhere, and when the child attempted
to drive it out. it turned upon him, knock
ed him down and putits tusks into his face,
arms and legs, rolled him over and over
and bruised him from head to foot. The
boys screams brought his mother to the
door, and, nearly frantic, she went to the
rescue Of the child. Why the boar ran of
when she approached she.doesn't know, but
it did leave the child and she carried him
to the house and sent fdr the doctor. This
