CRUELTY TO ANIMALS.-Two
men, whom for charity's sake we will
this time allow to be nameless, commit
a brutal outrage mpon wild colt the
other day. 1t seems the colt had been
caught up from the bottoms and taken
to Stegert's stable opposite the grange
store. The animal being wild was of
course unused to stables and refused to
go in. The men having it in charge
worked nearly half an bonr to get it in
the stable, whipping and wounding it in
a cruel manner. The bystanders. to
their shame be it said, did not interfere
to prevent the cruelty. MIR. Stubs
demonstrated with the heartless men
and the animal was finally turned into
the lot as it should have been at first.
Perhaps the parties who were thus
guilty Of cruelty to an animal, are not
aware that their crime, according to
the Law of this Territory may be pun
ished by fine of three hundred dollars.

OLD LAND MARK GoNE.-The old
log building on the block west of Mr..
Crawford's residence, which has stood
since 1855, was burned down last Mon
day. 1t was built during the indian
excitement over twenty years ago,
and was so arranged by jutting out
the upper story, that persons inside
could shoot Indians, should they come
to fire it during siege. Thus, one
by one, the old land marks pass away,
and soon there will be nothing but
the memories of the grandsires to tell

Our Eagle Spreads His Wings.

Mr.. Price, of Iowa, observed in the House
of Representatives yesterday that this topic
of silver and resumption "wanted some
light shed upon it, and he proceeded to
she'd some. He poured light over it like a
bucket of water. He cxuded light from all
his pores and snapped it in lordly gestures
from the ends of his fingers till the topic
was covered with it; bathed, saturated,
whelmed and lost in the splendors of his
eloquence In fact the topic itself slipped
out of sight in the glowing glories Of
Prices rhetoric disappeared as if it had
been a pewter pot cast into the great
caldron of ncandescent iron over a foun-
dry re. He declared his Indifference to all
that had been said before. He "did not
know anything about the elder Peel's opin-
ions and did not care anything about his
sons" Men who are prepared to favor the
world with deluges of light have this disre-
gard for ancient prcjudices as naturally as
chickens have the pip. But Price favored
the House with the reason for his indiffer-
ence to the opinions of Peel. Peel lived in
England. That was what allied him. For
England is very little country, mere geo.
graphical pimple as one might say. It's clear
that it is simple impertinence for people
who live in little countries to pretend to
opinions, and absurd to assume that
opinions which originate in such countries
arc of any account in big countries. "ln
England" says Price, "you may take a rail-
road car in the morning and start out in
straight line and before the sun sets you
will run over the edge;" an observation
which proves ut once that they can know
nothing about finance over there. There
isn't room But how different it 10 with US !

'Step QUIT is Price that invites US in

one thousand miles, nor two thousand
nor three thousand miles only, but ne mas
traversed nearly four thousand miles when
he sinks to rest behind the golden waves OF

not thoroughly convinced by this line OF
argument For them there is this further
defance:-'Take your stand up at the
frozen north where the Ice King reigns, and
follow down through all degrees of latitude
till You have reached the land of the orange

country which, for diversity of cline and
products, has no equal on the globe.

The Senate was not in session yesterday,

all the light it threw on the anti-resumption
question, which was the only subject under
discussion. The debate was opened by
Mr.. Gardiner, of Ohio, in favor of the bill.
Mr.. Cox, of Ohio, argued strongly in favor
of his own amendment, which provides the
machinery of resumption. Mr.. Riddle, Of
Tennessee, and Mr.. Price, Of Iowa, followed,
the former in favor of the bill OF the COM
mittee and the latter in opposition to it.
There was tilt between Mr.. Price and Mr..
Kelley on the subject of the national banks,

NIenncinr Electors.

1t is alleged that on Monday last, the day
before the election, notice WAS issued by
the Seventh Avenue Railroad Company,
signed by James w. Foshay, the president
Of the company, directing the conductors
and drivers employed on that line to get
their votes ut certain room in the COM
pany's building and of u certain person and
not to vote until they had done so, the inter-
ests of the company and it's employees being
identical. The notice added, Every en-
ployG is expected to comply with the above. :"
1t is further alleged that driver and con-
ductor who refused to vote in accordance
with the directions of the company were
forthwith discharged.
This direct attempt to control the votes Of
the employees of the company in question,
especially if accompanied by the discharge
Of those who refused to submit to the dicta-
ton Of their employers, seems to come
clearly within the meaning of section Of
title Z, chapter 6, part l, volume l of the
Revised Statutes OF New York, which pro-
vides as iollows:-
SECTION al any person shall by bribery ''mcnacc"
other means or device whatsoever "cithcr
directly or indirectly, attempt 10 influence any cleo

ter hlm from giving the same or disturb binder

To the discretion OF the before whcn such con.
vction shall DO mad such iiuc IN no cas-. 10 xccod
nvc hundred dollars nor such imprlson one year
Under any circumstances the action of
this railroad company would be reprehen-
siblc. But when it is remembered that
it is the act of corporation which
has received the gilt Of valuable fran
chisc from the people Of New York, and
which seeks to unduly control legisla-
ton by the election Of Senators and ASSEM-
blymen who will represent at Albany the
interests Of the corporation in antagonism to
the interests of the city, it becomes an out
rage which should excite general indigna-
ton and which cannot be too severely de-
nounced. The law seems ample to meet
and punish the offence, and it is to be hoped
that the District Attorney will do his duty
in the matter and that tho extreme penalty
OF the statute will be enforced. II the alle-
