TO THE SUMMER TOURIST.

Those Of our citizens who are fortunate enough
to be able to seek respite from the labors OF the
business season just closed. and to reeHperate
their energies at some OF the many delightful
summer resorts to be found in the Northern
States and Canada, will be glad to learn that She
old favorite Jackson route, undera vigorous end
efficient management. has become one oil the
very best travelling thorougbfares In the country.
Hundreds Of thousands of dollars have been
expended, as we are Gre dibly informed. during
the past twelve months for new iron and steel
rails, new eross-tes and new bridges, and to- day
1t may be safely said inst no road south Of the
Ohio river surpaeses the great Jackson route in
smoothness and perfect safety. We have had
occasion, during The past few weeks. to travel
quite extensively that road, and we can thus.
from actual experience. bear witness TO its ex-
celence in every particular which goes to consti-
tute good road.

We hope that Peter Colfax the man who
was recently arrested for having beaten a
horse over the head with slungshot, will. If
proven guilty, be severely dealt with by the
courts. The drivers of wagons and cars in
this city are altogether too much addicted to
the merciess and wholly unnecessary beating
Of animals. The police should keep sharp
watch upon these fellows, and promptly ar
rest them when they are caught indulging
their brutal instincts. man who will treat
with unnecessary cruelty these helpless
beasts of burden can only be restrained blythe
