Col. Reisinger, of the Meadville
Gazette, was ever the friend Of the
horse. Here issome good horse sense
from his pen: "When the business
man in search OF place to locate,
gets off at the Meadville depot aud
sees some of the teams which go there
for passengers and baggage, he will
probably get on the cars again. At
twenty-five cents a bushel for oats and
seven to eight dollars a ten for hay,
there is no excuse for keeping such
crow. bats as are exhibited daily on
our streets, and with a full Aedged
society for the prevention of cruelty to
animals, backed by the almost univer.
sal sentiment of the community in
favor of their doing something, this
should not be tolerated" We're oi
the opinion that the Colonel's remarks
fit moro localities than Meadville, SO
We are.
The Philadelphia Times says
"The local newspapers of PennsylVa.
MIA are the most creditable Of any
published in the country, and they are
rapidly growing in prosperity and
power. They have done their part to
advance their respective sections, and
it should ever be remembered that
their usefulness is just commensurate
with their patronage. The city jour.
nal, so far from attempting to retard
the local journal, always profits by the
prosperity of the local newspapers, for
they steadily educate their readers to
greater needs in newspapers, and thus
multiply the demand for metropolitan
journals as the local journals multiply
their readers. The local newspaper is
the backbone of the community, and
generous as is the public appreciation
of its offices, it merits much more
sympathy and support than it general
ly receives"

hereabouts would gladly see him ad'
