An experienced horse man claims that the practice
of clipping horses is for the health and comfort o
the animals in question and not for the purpose oi
destroying them. Those horses having long hair
only should be clipped. horse used in all sorts
Of weather, the long hair often gets wet with
perspration, rain and snow to such an extent
that no amount OF rubbing will quite dry it after
work is done and remaining in such a condition
through a cold night invariably gives the horse

SENSE ABOUT TEMPERANCE.

LETTER FROM THE REV. DR.. HOWARD CROSBY
To the Editor Of The Tribune:
SIR: Let me suggest through you TO my fellow-cit-
liens of New-York few facts and propositions:
l. The 5000 groegeries of New-York are direct
cause of much of our pauperism and crime.
2. These groggenes do no good uhaerer, as set-of
to the fearful evil.
8. The vast majority of NEWCOMERS would rejoice
in their suppression.
4. United action will suppress them.
8. No religious, moral or political theory is in
yolved in the matter 1t is work of decency, order
and common-sense.
6. The present laws are sufficient to do the work.
Forbid the Legislature to weaken them.
z. Hotels are necessary. Groggeries have no ex-
to live. If hotels may have some evils connected
with their bars. those evils nothing compared
to the evils of the groggeries. Hotels have reputa-
ton to protect. GROCERIES have no reputation to
lose The hotel is as different from the GROCERY
private dwelling-bouse is from brothel.
S. The courts will soon show that three hunks in
back room cannot transform groggery into a hotel
o. believe, after some observation, that New-York
City has as high moral tone and is well governed
as any large city on the globe. have found its Off
cias in the police and other civic departments uni
formly ready to expedite all movements for the
cIty's good. Let us not magn own city by
echoing the rustic cry that 1t SodOm, but united
ly contribute the furtherancc of its prosperity by
helping our magistrates in cleansing it from its
moral stains.
10. Where efforts are being made by respectable
citizens toward the ends designated let all assist
and the enemy is routed. Yours truly.
