THE CHECK REIN.

We thought that word to the wise
was sufficient, but the barbarous check
rein still painfully curves the necks of
our carriage and draft horses. We have
proved by the highest authority in horse
flesh that its use paralyzes the facil mus
cles, then would it not in all reason to
produce lock-jaw. We saw an account
IA few days ago of a very valuable horse
dying of lock,jaw, the attending Surgeon
ignorantly saying "from some unknoicn
cause. !" Look to it Gentlemen and abolish
the cruel check-rein, away with the fool
ish and wicked pride of driving high.
headed horse who only tosses his head
because he is suffering. Extend to your
horses that mercy which you will be glad
enough to have given to yourselves some
day. If you don't want your horse tC
stumble let him see where he is going
tie mans head up so his eyes cannot
see the ground and what s to hinder him
stumbling over every stone he meets. In
word gentlemen make your horse com

On stumbling we have the authority OF

LONDON, Nov. 14.-The Pail Mall
Gazette editorily laments the hostile feel
ing between Turkey and Russia, and says
the prospect for peace is most gloomy.
Sir Stafford Northcote, Chancellor of
the EXchequer, in n speech to Conserva-
tives, Mt Bristol, thought Russia had been
misunderstood, and hoped for peace, but
Right Hon. Robert Lowe, in speech
to the Liberals, declared there was I'M
minent possibility Of England's engaging
ina war of which Ii every Englishman ought
to be ashamed, deprecated Lord Bea-
constield's defiance of Russia, thought
the proposed conference would lead to no
good, and feared
THE PEACE OF EUROPE
was in imminent jeopardy. The Times,

parations are too public to cause alarm.
RUSSIANS ENTHUSIASTIC.
The Cars speech wasreceived through
out Russia with great enthusiasm. Town
councils, diets, trades, merchants guilds,
the clergy, and, in fact all classes unani-
mously declare. without qualification
their joyful readiness to contribute to
and fulfil to the utmost all the demands
which the Gar and the Empire might
make for the protection OF the Interests
| of Russia. They place their fortunes and
all their resources at the disposal of the
government to provide the II ecessary
means. The army is about to he mobiliz-
ed Russian consuls are being withdrawn
from the interior OF Turkey.
At Berlin and Vienna the conference
project is expected to fail.

ENGLAND AND RUSSIA ACTIVE
LY PREPARING FOR THE
STRUGGLE
LONDON, Nov. II, 1876.

LONDON, Nov. II, 1876.
The news this morning is still more
warlike than that of yesterday, and the
is now general that an imme-
diate resort.to arms has been determined
upon by Russia. The air, in fact. is filled
with rumors, and people who had hoped
allalong that England would keep clear OF
it are now coming around to the belief
that the Premier, for reasons best known
to himself, is determined on fight in the
event of u Russian invasion of Turkey.
Whether he counts upon having an ally
or not is one thing which the future may
bring to light, but it is now generally felt
that even should England be single han
ded in the conflict, Disraeli will not hest
tate to resist Russian aggression by force
WHAT DIsRAELI MAY DO.
Shrewd observers of the brilliant but
erratic statesman go so far as to say that
he counts ON bringing 100, ,000Sikhs andSc-
poys from India into the struggle, and
that those, with the hordes of Mohamme-
dams from the Turkish dominions and
from Africa, which English money could
place in the field would enable the Turks
| to meet the Russians on something like
l tuuiii itilils.
GUNBoATS ORDERED TO sBA.
But whatever the government means to
lido, there can be no doubt that prepara-
| tions on large scale for war are being
energetically pushed forward. The Ad-
| miralty have issued an order to have all
| the guns at Portsmouth got ready for sea
| Immediately, and recruiting for gunner;
| is actively going on in all the naval de-
pots.
MILITARY PREPARATIONS.
Extensive military preparations are
| also going on and in all the arsenals the
utmost activity prevails. Troops have
have been ordered to the Mediterranean
and the garrisons of Malta and Gibraltar
are to be strengthened with all possible
despatch
THE DEFENCE OF COSSTANTIN oPLE.
| Colonel Stokes, of the Royal Engineers,
with a competent staff, has been ordered
to the East to organize the defence OF
Constantinople, and this is regarded as II
sure indication of England's intention to
act at once i'll case Russia moves her
Troops into Turkish territory. The Eng
lsh press has been giving much atten-
Ition OF late to the opinions of eminent
military authorities on the defence OF
Constantinople, and hence the signiti-
cance attached to the tending of an able
English engineer otfieerto take charge o
that important work.
