Newark boys TO Paris, telegraphs home that
Pasteur advises against the summary killing OF
dogs which have bitten people and are sup
posed to De mad. He urges that such dogs
should be caught and put in a cage. If really
mad the rabies is certain to develop in ten
days, 30 that IL no symptoms appear within
that period the bitten persons need fear no
further anxiety. He says that dogs are often
supposed To be mad when they are only suffer.

II unfortunately begins to look now as
though the proposed monument to Grant in
New York will never be built,-at least not on
The scale and in the way at first contemplated.
Only little over the tenth part of the sum
originally counted upon has been raised, and
rs the managers have got into a row among
themselves, the probability Is that contribu-
lions will cease to come in. The explanation
Of the existing difficulty Is that q number of
the general committee were dissatisfied with
the criticisms that had been made upon the
fact that most of them had made no subscrip-
ton to the fund while calling upon the public
20 send in money, and so seem disposed to
withdraw from active connection with the en-
terprise; but this explanation is so discredita-
BILE 10 the gentlemen constituting that body
that IL Is difficult to accept ii the true reason
The fact remains, however, that very few OF
the prominent members of the committee
have given anything: but one would think
that the publicity given to that circumstance
ought TO have neryed them to do their duty in
the premises, rather than serve as a pretext for
running away from 1t, which they seem dis
posed 10 do.
