Pet Animals and Disease.

One Of the medical journals, in referring

broke out violently the day after the animal 8

died of it. Horses with CHAMBERS sometimes
transmit the loathsome disease to man. The
hog cholera that was no destructive a few
years ago was frequently carried from pen to
pen and drove to drove by rats who ate Of the
dead hogs, died, and were in turn eaten by 9th

habits, but as there are many localities where
cats and dogs roam at large and are caressed
by every child that can lay hands on them

against the homeless CONTINGENT of estrtys.

a Noble Boy.

On one Of the many bridges in Ghent
stand two large brazen images of father
and son, who oh bsained this distinguished
mark of the admiration of their fellow
citizens by the following incident -
Both the father and the son were, for
some offence against the State, con,
demned TO die. Some favorable circum
stances appearing on the side of the son,
he was granted remission of his sen,
tence under certain provisions in short.
he was offered q pardon On a most cruel
and barbarous condition-namely, that
he would become the sxecutioner of his
father.
He at first resolutely refused to pre-
serve his life by means so fatal and do
testable. This is not to be wondered at;
for let us hope, for the honor of our na>
ture, that he spurned with abhorrence
life sustained on a condition SO horrid
and unnatural.
The son, though long inhexible, was
at length overcome by the tears and en-
treaties of his father, who represented to
him that, at all events, his (the father's)
life was forfeited, and that it would be
the greatest possible consolation for him
i'll his last moments to think that In his
death he was an instrument of his sons
preservation.
The youth consented to adopt the hor.
rible means of recovering his life and
liberty he lifted the axe but, as it was
about to fall, his arm sunk nerveless,
and the axe dropped from his hand.
Had he as many lives as hairs. he could
have yielded them all, one after another,
rather than again conceive, much less
perpetrate, such an act. Life, liberty,
everything vanished before the dearer
interests of flial affection he fell upon
his fathers neck, and embracing hun,
triumphingly exclaimed, ''A1y father!
my father ! we die together !" and then
called for another executioner to fulfill
the sentence of the law.
A sudden peal of involuntary ap-
plause, mixed with means and sighs,
rent the air. The execution was sus-
pended; and, ON simple report of tbeea
transaction to the authorities, both'l, don't
pardc ssas< Higss55-ewards and hvSTJJ, il CON
we're conferred on the son; and finally
those two admirable brazen images were
raised to commemorate transaction SO
honorable to human nature, and trans
NIT it to the instruction and emulation
of posterity. The statue represents the
son in the very act Of letting fall the
axe.
