OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.

A correspondent of the Athenian
Farmer says the question arises a" What
is the difference between Alderney cattle
and Jersey cattle ?" Having been look
ing mp the matter he is able to answer
the question. Alderney, Jersey and
Guernsey are small islands in the British
Channel, just off the coast of Normandy.
France, from which the first, an isle Of
about four square miles in area, is sepa-
rated 10y only narrow strait. jersey,
about sixteen miles off the coast. is q
much larger and more fertile island. be-
ing about eleven times the size of Alder.
aey While the cattle of the three
islands are all believed to have come from
one common Norman stock, anil pass un-
der the common name of the Alderney
breed, the Jersey cattle have been greatly
improved by careful in-breeding, and are
better nilkers a. to quantity, though not
as to quality, than the native cattle of
Alderney. Few cattle are acknowledged
to have been exported from the latter is
land: while Jersey cattle are largely ex-
ported To England and this country.
where nearly all the representatives Of
what is known as the Alderney breed are
Jerseys. 1t would not be correct to speak
of Alderneys and Jersey as distinct
breeds
But 1t might be well to find a means of
being sure that the Jerseys" imported
were actually from the Isle of Jersey. as
cattle can be had much cheaper on the
other islands, and are comparatively in
trrior, Of course

trivial. But, in all probability, certain
Cincinnati Police Judge did not calculate
when he remarked "Thirty DAYS." to a
prisoner, that he was inaugurating Sc
quence of events that was to affect the
town like an amateur cyclone. And
probably nothing Of the sort would have
occurred anywhere but in Cincinnati,
where everything seems to be wrought up
to ridiculous pitch since the newspaper
war became so lively there. The facts in
detail are these: Maggie Gallagher. of
Cincinnati, was sentenced, in the Police
Court, to thirty days in prison and to pay
a fine of $50 for drunkenness. When she
heard the sentence she hurled heavy ink
stand at the Judges head He lodged,
and the missile flew through the window
and fell to the pavement, the ink splash
ing over lady's elegant silk dress and
totally running it. The lady, in trying to
shake the ink from her raiment, fright
ened a team Of spirited horses that ran
away with carriage containing two la
dies and a child, upsetting fruit stand
and throwing the ladies into butcher
cart, while the child was fastened in a
bunch of telephone wires about ten feet
above the side walk. The team could
not be stopped and continued on their
flight, finally plunging through the plate
glass windows of china shop. They
ran through the entire length of the
store, spreading destruction and devasta-
tion at every hand, ran out Of the back
door, leaped into the canal, and were
drowned Now they talk of calling Oh
the Judge for damages because he lodged
the inkstand.

From the New York Tr1buue1
1t is time that something was done for
the protection of that class Of our citi-
zens who are obliged to raise money by
pawnirg their personal property. This is
the only country where a faint OF disgrace
rests on the unfortunate wretch whose
necessities drive him under the sign OF
the three balls. He is not necessarily
criminal or degraded, and there is no
reason why the law should refuse to him
the protection which it grants to all 9th
er debtors. A wealthy man in tempo
rary strait borrows money and gives as
security real estate or the Endorsement
of friend. The law limits to just
sum the amount of interest which the
creditor can demand and delays to q
merciful time the period when bis house
can be sold or his friend be summoned
to pay the debt. The poor man OF
womap. on the other hand, who wants to
borrow O few dollars and has no security
but his coat or the blanket which Gov
ers bis bed at night, is legally charged
in different states from four to six per
cent. a mont interest for the money
loaned, ard the security offered Is not
valued at it's real worth, but, AZ rule,
70 per cent. below it, at which rate it is
sold peremptorily in six months after it
is pledged. In France the whole system
of loans on deposits is in charge ct the
government. A fair rate of interest is
charged by it, and the saleof the deposits
is made on comparatively just terms. yet
even with these restrictions the revenue
accruing from these establishments is
enormous. There is no reason why every
legal favor here should be given to the
pawnbroker, and the poor debtor, who
only differs from the rich one in that he
puts his coat in pledge instead of bis
house, should be placed at so cruel dis
advantage. .s...
