would like to know IL there is not humanity
and Christianity enough in the good City OF Chi
caro to prevent such m outrage on the feelings
Of all decent people. and the torture of the most
noble and useful animal, especially as they have
the law on their side? What Is the use OF MAX
ing laws If they are never to be enforced? Does
not the law passed. March, 1869, Sec. !. ex-
prcssly forbid the torturing and mutilaring OF
animals. under penalty Of fine not less than
five. and not exceeding 100 dollars? 1t should
have hten Imprisonment also1 ........
What WORST torture could bcintlicted on a poor
beast after undergoing most painful and ngo-
nizing operation, than to he forced to stand
upon it's feet dny and night In the most intense
misery, without any chance OF lying down to
rest, and be subjected every day to the fright
and pain of the dressing the wounds? Why talk
uf mural suason' to Il set OF ignorant, brutal
wretche5 in the form Of men, who are Disgrace

CHICAGO, Feb. .o.--The recent movcmentlook-

the great Chicago fire has excited a general
feeling Of curiosity and wander.

apparently been unhcedet1, hence it would pc

and compare them with those that exist now.
Should the Committee having the matter In

us Of our past uegee, for safety as we'll as our
present insecurity from like contiagratlon. 1t
would be productive OF good.

Tho Government, through Congress, should
not have opened its spite upon the banks. The
entire action OF Congress in the passage or the

This Funding law Is the embodiment OF DEM

it is not intended that it shall in the end help

To The Editor Of The Chicago Tribune.
CHICAGO, Fob. a6.-The public may bo inter-
ested to know what all this agitation and prose-
cutton Of the retail dealers and manufactures
Of lard and tallow butter mcuns.
The whole object -is to compel those manu-
facturers of the stuff, end particularly the retail
caers who deliver it to customers. to sell it for
what it is, anu not deceive people by giving
then, q mixture Of lard or other kinds Of grease
with butter when they ask for pure butter and
arc perfectly willing to pay good price for 4
good article. This much the bnttcr-dealers In
sist on, and will fight the matter till they can
get National law to that effect Then let the
stuff stand on its own merits; If people want raw
lard mixed with their butter, under the name of
.butterine," why let them have it; no one can
object to this, nut it is an outrage to pain, OIL
two pounds of lartl and one pound of butter,
mixed, on person for genuine butter
Some silly people assert that the butter-deal-
ers are irving to keep up the price of butter BY
this movement against the venaers OF bogus
stuff. This is suprenely ridiculous. The lart1-
mixer can pay the highest price io5 crenmery' re, M
tub and labor leaves two pounds creamery
use third butter and two-thirls lard. The
people who are engaEed In this business
say there is 4 demand for it from the people;
etc. ANY person who sAys there Is any demand
from the consumer fur It rs burterine states
what is false, u1lu he KNOWS IL 10 DC 1a!Se Feo-
pie don't want this stuff, and in my opinion 1ny
respectable groccrytnan who deals In It will nnd
his business in butter duuaaged4 1t will certain-
" ruin any dealers business sooner ur later
who handles it. There IRE only Il few men on
Water street who refused To contribute some
thing to suppress the sale Of It ls butter.
Mr. N. Il. Fnirbnnk, Mr.. L. Z. Fits. or G: Fl.
Robinson claim they don't deceive any one: they
sell it for l,lstcr1nc. True, bur they know full
watl that the party to whom they st.ll Commits
a fraud in order to get i of iL. II the goods
were soll at retail for what they are the nanu-
fucturers would have been out Of business long
ago. Why is it. If it is So good and people want
it, that the grocer nets in such Il sileAk-thlef
manner? Why don't he come out and sell 1t like
q man: Now that the business among the groeerS
is pretty we'll broken ul, it is being sold 70 res
tAi1rnuts l,onliing- houses, and secoud-clhs5
hotels. Somu groccrs hive delivered to cust0'n-
crs On orders, but do not offer it for sale to
strangers. would suggest To amy person who
asks for butter ,.ld suspects this stuff Is given
HIM. to ask the seller to warrant it pure butter,
and report Mt once to the inspector on Water
street. It you know Of your boarding. house or
hotel using il report this ALSO aud in this Way it
cun he broken up. -..........
is there any greater luxury than fine butter?
and whnt is more disgusting thnu TO think OF
raw E,rd or grease being in IL dirty cclinr with
butter and sold for pure butter? Some doctors
suy that thiA winter cholera is caused by eating
raw lard, and it is not unreasonable VICTIM.
