S. P. c. A.

I wish through the columns of your
paper to give fair notice to all parties in
tsrested, that I have been appointed agent
for the Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Children and Animals, and it is
my duty not only to arrest persons caught
in the act Of cruelty treating animals, but
it is my duty to see that horses are not left
standing on the streets or alleys more than
two hours without blankets, in cold
weather, and not over five hours without
food and water at any season Of the year.
The following are among the causes for
arrest: Whoever overdrives, overloads,
tortures, torments, deprives Of necessary
sustenance, cruelty beats, needlesBly kills
or mutilatos, or confines any animal with
out proper quantity, good wholesome food
and water, or carries in or on any vehicle
any animal in cruel or inhuman manner,
or who keeps COWS or other animals in any
inclosure without wholesome exercise and
change Of air. Space will not permit Civ
ing the entire law in regard to children
and animals; but the time has come whom
those Of cruel nature must be taught that
the laws must be upheld, and that all that
practice cruelty will be punished. We are
disposed to give all fair chance and do
not wish to be compelled to make arrests,
but the Society is not organized for orna-
ment, but for work, and after fair notice ell
persons will be vigorously prosecuted II
they persist in their cruelty.

Taking advantage Of the pleasant
weather which ushered in the first
day Of the present month, we board
ed the HiHsboro Accommodation last
Wednesday morning, for the purpose
Of making brief visit to the State
Capital via the Cincinnati and Co.
lumbus Midland road, the new and
short route opened a few months ago
to the travelling public. After a wait
Of only seven minutes at Blanchester,
passengers for Columbus take the
morning train from Cincinnati and
connect with the new road at Clinton
Valley, four miles east, that being its
present Southern terminus. Here a
commodious new depot has been
erected and a number Of new build
ings are going up, indicating the
probability Of a future town, as
rival of Blanchester. From Clinton
Valley the road bears northeasterly
passing through Cuba to Wilmington,
distance Of 70 miles, thence due
east to Sabina, 10 miles, thence to
Washington c. H., II miles. Here
the road turns almost directly north,
passing through Bloomingburg, Mad
isou Mills and Mt. Sterling, the last
named a thriving village, surrounded
by a beautiful country, and after
passing several smaller stations north
Of Mt. Sterling, reaches Columbus
in a distance Of SO miles from Wash
ington, or a total distance Of Il miles
from Clinton Valley. The train
reached Columbus at HAS a. m. city
time, making the run from Hillsboro,
a distance Of 81 miles in about four
hours and a half.
The road is very sOlidly built, with
the best heavy steel rails and the
trains run as smoothly and make as
good time as on older roads. The
engines, passenger cars and all the
equipments are hrst-class, and the
road has evidently been built with
the greatest care and in the most
substantial manner.
Our train was under the charge Of
Mr.. J. S. Beecher, as conductor, tc
whom we are indebted for polite at
tentions.
The road for the most part passes
through a level, rich and productive
country, which must furnish large
amount of freight in the shape o.
grain, cattle and other agriculture.
products, besides a considerable
local passenger business, in addition
to the through travel between Colum'
bus and Cincinnati, which is steadily
increasing, the line being severa
miles shorter than the Panhandle
and Little Miami.
Calling at the Office Of the roaC
while in Columbus, we made the &C
quaintance of Mr.. S. P. Peabody, tht
General Superintendent, from whom
we learned that the business Of tn,
road has thus far exceeded the ex
pectations of its managers, and tina
they are anxious for its extension a
the earliest possible day from Wash

no doubt that this extension south

20 Gazatta qnd Ia. WorLer.

The reference in our last issue to
the action Of the Prosecuting Attor-
ney brought down upon US the violent
denunciation of the Gazette. They
did this not because any statement
Of ours was untrue, because they
know we stated nothing but the truth.
AS they do not and can not deny the
truth Of our editorial, we infer from
their course, that their position is,
that whoever critisizes the action Of
a Democratic official however Justly
and truthfully he does so, will receive
the unmeasured denunciation of the
Gaseae. AS to whether our editorial
was warranted by the facts, we prefer
to be judged by an intelligent and
impartial public, and not by Mr..
Worley's party organ or self consti.
tuted apologists. We made no com
plant Of Mr.. Worley's general course
as an officer, but since the GIzsH,
has sought an issue on that question,
we will say that if he is as worthy an
officer as his organ makes him out
TO be, it is hoped he will dig out the
frauds on the election laws occurring
in Clay township last fall and bring

A correspondent OF La Canad len recon-
nends as an untailing remedy for smallpox
the application, when the first symptoms ap-
pear, of two small Spanish-fiy bIisters to
arm Of the patient between the elbow and
the shoulder. These, he contends, will draw
all the virus Of the disease to that part of
the body, and it may be let out by opening
the vesicles from time to Tina with PEN
knife or a pair of scissors. The blister>
should be allowed to remain till they fall
of, and no more pus runs from the wound,
when it will dry up on the application of a
