wolves risk to many others besides the
gamblers themselves. 1t is quite
possible that, if banks and business
men should continue to entangle
themselves more and more in. this
way, disaster might occur.
But there are two reasons for hop
ing that ii may be avoided. The first
is that banks and business men have
mad some pretty sharp warnings of
the danger. 1t would be strange in
deed if they should not take especial
precautions to draw away from de.
pendence upon operations so plainly
dangerous. The second is that the
speculative fever has about reached
the stage at which the professional
gamblers are left to amuse themselves
with each other. The fact that GER
tain markets are no longer governed
by legitimate considerations of value,
or supply and demand, but by con-
spring and trickery, has become too
widely known The failure ofa score
or two of spectators, if the banks and
the public would let them alone,
would not be a disaster to the coun-
try quite the contrary.-Nea0 York

Down with the Blind Birdie.

The american Farmer, in speaking
against the use of the blind bride.
says: "We know not who invented
this instrument of horse torture, but
we know that he did not understand
the anatomy and physiology of the
eye OF horse. Human vision is BIZ,
nocular-that is, we see the same OBJ
ject with both eyes-and so adjust
the axis of vision that the object aps
pears single, though seen with both
eyes. But the eyes of the horse are
placed on the side of the head and
the axis of each eye is nearly at right
angles with the longitudinal iine, of
the body. so that it is impossible that
the same object can be distinctly seen
with two eyes. Now, by binding
the the eye in the direction in which
1t was intended in its construction
that it should see, it is forced to use
an obIique vision, as if we should
cover the front'of our optics and be
compelled to see only by the corner
of our eyes. This unnatural and con-
strained use of the eye must, to
greater or less extent, impair vision.
if not entirely destroy it. The biect
for which the blind bride is used is
not accomplished by it. A horse is
more readily frightened when he cam
not see the object Of his dread than if
he can have fair view of it. But it
is surprising TO observe with what
tenacity men hold on to an absurd
and cruel practice, when a moments
reflection would teach them better.
Nineteen out of twenty horses you
see in harness have blind bride on,
and if you ask the owner to explain
its benefits, or why he uses it, he will
be utterly unable to give a rational
answer. We are not surprised that
draught horses are subject to diseased
eyes-we wonder that they are not all
blind"
