E TO CATTLE,

II ia a matter of ediication to see n
deputation Of members Of Parliament
giving grave consideration to the subject
Of better transportation for cattle on the
transatlantic boats.
It seems from statistics that the way the
poor beasts are treated on tine trip across
the Atlantic results in great suffering and
mortality among the stock. To prevent
this is humane. and the sentiment is q
healthy and praiseworthy one.
The point remains that the consider
ation Of such o question by grave legis-
lators il O fine thing in itself indie
pendently of the means which may
ultimately be adopted to remedy the evil.
A reasonable regard for the lower animals
10 something which is due from man to
his own nature. although there is much
silly feeling on this subject.
Let us hope that the British Solons may
hatch some wise laudable measure OF
prevention.

The middle division will include that

This makes 1t an extremely expensive

The smoking apartments will have side

The cars will he heated and lighted by

n few weeks, and We honestly believe that
our system will he in iull operation by the
