NEW YORKISMS.
From cur own Oorrerpondent.
Niw York, Aug. 6.
At the northeast corner of Fourth streot and
Broadway are painted In Urge blue letters on
the Fourth street aide of the house, "Society for
the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals." Ascend
ing by the side Interior the visitor is confronted
Vlth a door bearing tha same inscription, and
opening upon a neat square llttlo room, which
Overlooks busy Broadway
Small as the room Is, and few as are Its occu
pants, the visitor's first Impression is that a
great deal of business Is transacted there. In
the northwest corner sits a middle aged gentle
man, with a keenly benevolent face, whose eyes
seem to beam with a general desire for the
welfare of all dumb animals everywhere. This
Is Mr. John Mudie, head clerk. Immediately
opposite to him and In the southwest corner sits
Mr. Henry Bcrgh, the altogether indefatigable
Tresldent of a Society, some of whose good
Works His proposed here to show.
The act to Incorporate that Society was passed
April 10, 1SCC, and its first operations were in a
limited field. Mr. Uerqh owns tht he com.
meuced his work as an enthusiast; and, indeed,
without the enthusiast's blind devotion, it can
scarcely bo believed that a man would address
himself to so gigantic a task. But the white
heat which so much resembled fanaticism has
subsided by this time Into the steady even glow
which is the characteristic of a life's considerate
devotion to the transaction of a great duty
Aware that he is called a madman by men of a
less sympathetic mould than himself, hampered
frequently in his efforts by judicial processes
which should help rather than hinder hi
coarse; threatened occasionally in life and limb
by those who conceive him to have opposed
their interests; he is cheereJ by the proofs that
ere from time to time laid before htm, of the
tangible good that has been achieved.
The first cases upon which his benevolence
made ittelf felt wero the cruelties practised in
the, transportation of cattle and sheep. The
conviction of a few of the offenders soon reme
died that evil however. His efforts to put do rn
the practice of plunging live fowl in boiling
Water lor the assumed purpose of more easily
stripping them of their plumage, were not bo
successful. The defendants asserted that insen
sibility had first been produced by piercing the
brains ot the fowls with a small penknife, and
the case was dismissed. II is attention was then
directed to the cruelties practiced on green tur
tles during their transportation from the tropics
hither, their fins being pierced and tied with
thongs, and themselves thrown upon their
hacks and kept for weeks without sufficicut
nourishment. A great deal of ridicule was
elicited by his attempt to obtain justice and
extract sympathy, turtles being considered too
low a link in the scale of animal life to be de
serving of human forbearance. At length a bill
of indictment was found against Nehemiah II.
Calhoun, captain of the schooner Action'
Although he was afterwards allowed to
escape from justice. An appeal to Professor
Louis Agassiz to lecture In public lu New York
upon subjects kindred to that of cruelty to finl
ruals, produeed from that learned man a letter,
dated at the Museum of Comparative Zoology,
at Harvard College, in which he gave the most
tin wavering support to Mr. Burgh's views of the
green-turtle question. Nothing is so easy as to
iaisc a laugh on such questions as these, and
gourmands, we may make sure, are the first to
erln. But the Society for the Prevention o1
Cruelty to Animals has now too assured a place
in the world, and has alleviated too great an
amount ot Buffering among dumb animals for
any such exhibition to be received as other than
an indication of either very great apathy or
very great stupidity.
It is, of course, impossible to trace the stepa
by which one evil after another evoked the
attention of the Society. Among these evils
were the adulterated food for horses and cattle,
such as the mixing of plaster with ground grain;
the numerous abuses inflicted on horses by car
conductors and drivers; the amount of Buffering
caused by the present mode of constructluir
public roads to those animals which are obliged
to pass over them ; the cruelty practised in dog
fights, and cock .fights; the brutal slaughteringo
caitle; the feeding ot snakes and reptiles with
live animals; the worrying of cats, rats, aud
other animals by dogs; the tying of live fowls to
stakes to be torn to pieces by amateur sports
men; the wanton Injury of animals, and
suffering them to die a lingering
dtath; and finally, most moustrous
ol all the dissection of live auimals assumed to
b performed for scien title purposes. The latter
practice, known as "vivisection," has for years
bten carried on in Paris, London, and New
York, and it is to be presumed in all large cities.
It these accursed scientific abattoirs, where loug
piths of agony lead to death, live dogs are cut
open and deprived of their kidneys, spleen, and
stomachs; the most sensitive nerves of cats are
hid bare, and pinched, cut, and galvanized; the
brains ot birds have been wholly or In part
lemoved ; the facial nerves of rabbits have been
divided; and, finally, live horses are hacked to
death by the slow process of sixty-four different
cperatiunsl Upon all theco cases, as well as
liany others, the vigilance of the society has
leen employed, aud with results which ouly
fcem small to those who have spent time and
libor iu achieving them.
I have made it my duty to inquire into the
anount of work which the Society has per
Irrned. One of the peculiar features is the
attribution, throughout the public charitable
aylums where children are cared for, of several
tiousands of a small illustiated work treatiug
0 the consequences of cruelly to animals. Mr.
Brgh bas also lectured before large audiences
01 the subject of "Our Dumb Chattels," besides
eturing to the children of the "Five Points
JXuse or Industry," the "Five Points Mission,"
th "Home of the Friendless," the "House ot
Beuge" at Handalt's Island, and at the rooms of
th Young Men's Christian Association in
Vrlck street. The Society has within tho past
jar dislributed nearly 18,000 hand-bills,
decrlptive of its objects and purposes,
iiid it has erected ten drinking fountains
C horses, cattlo, and other animals. These
fantalus are located at the Bowling Green; at
tie junction of Liberty street and Maiden laae;
0 West and Reade streets; of Broadway and
Prk row; of E. Broadway and Grand street; of
Bcond and Houston streets; at Union square,
tlDg Fourteenth street; at tho Worth monu
Sent, Twenty fourth street and Fifth avenue; at
.e corner of Christopher aud Hudson streets;
aid at the foot of Wall street. Tho Society has
kenise attempted to get up an Interest in re
f ger&Ung cars and the transportation of dressed
meat from the prairies, in lieu of live animals,
the estimated saving on each car-load, accord
ing to the refrigerating plan, being at least $500.
The frightful manner of transporting sheep and
calves, by "sardine Ing" them together, has
likewise, daring the past year, been largely dis
continued. But there Is one point against which all the
energies of this noble association have been bent
with very littlo success, and that is the overload
ing of street cars. At the session of the ew
York Legislature of 1867, Indeed, a bill em
bracing all that was desired to extend protection
to man and beast was prepared by the Society
and presented In person by Mr. Bcrgh. After a
lengthy conference with the Judiciary Commit
tee of the Senate, however, he was assured that
any such bill, forcing a limit to a car load, was
quite impossible. Nothing daunted, however,
Mr. Bi rgh, on January 2, 1868 one of those
days when cars wero mercilessly packed inslde
and out procured the arrest ot the driver and
the conductor of one of the Blcekar and Elm
street cars. The defendants were indicted
by the Grand Jury and on February 7
were tried at the Court of General Sessions
before Recorder Hackett, found guilty and sen
tenced to pay fines of 9250 each. An appeal was
made from this to the Supreme Court, whoso
decision is now bein? awaited. On the evening
of Feb. 11, also, a Third avenue car being seen
to carry one hundred passengers, outside and in
the driver and the conductor were at once ar
rested. Four days after tin case was brought
before the Court of Special Sessions, where the
J unices decided to entertain no such cases until
the former appeal had been passed upou. So
that it will be seen that in regard to the oue evl
of overloading street cars, the society, painful
to say, bas as yet met with no flattering success
In regard to dog and cock-fights, all the prin
cipal places where these sports have been held
for bo many years have ceased to do any busi
ness almost from the hour when, under the
instigation of Mr. Bcrgh, more than a year and
a half ago, "Kit Burns," keeper ot "Sportsman's
Hall," and proprietor of one of tho most noted
resorts of this kind, was arrested. The intense
cruelty peculiar to the Jewish mode of slaugh
terlng animals, was also the occasion of a cir
cular letter being addressed by the Socioty to
every Babbl iu the city of New York. The cor
reepondenco between Mr. Bergh and the Rabbi,
S. M. Isaacs, on this subjeet, resulted in making
Mr. Isaacs a convert to the cause, although it
did not draw from him the acknowledgment
that the Jewish mode of slaughter Is particu
larly cruel.
Meanwhile numerous agents of the society
have regularly visitea the various hospitals
daring the year to report whatever results may
have taken place in the suppression of vivisec
tion. Observation proves that anaesthetics are
more improved than formcily, aud that a new
one, known as bichloride of methyllne, has
become extremely popular. One of the chief
operating surgeons of the Bellevuo Hospital, Dr
A. Flint, Jr., intimates that he has almost dis
continued the use of vivisection, and says that
the only cases in which he does not employ
ether is where the experiment would be seriously
interfered with by an agent ot that kind. If
so, Dr. Flint's experience is tvt variance with the
opinion of some of the most learned and distln
guibhed physiologist that tha world baa ever
seen. Galen, Sir Charles Bell, Sir George Wil
son, Longet, Abernethy, Sir Astley Cooper,
Magendie, and others that might be named, all
argue that scientific knowledge is not advanced
by vivisection.
The society has likewise dragged two swill
milk cafes to light, but owing to the forgetful
ness (to use no hasher term) of District-Attor
ney Morris, they yet remain undisposed of. An
immense effort was made to obtain judgment
against the proprietors of the cattle-yards on
Oue Hundredth street, near Third avenue. In
these yards, situated on an elevated and unshel
tercd point, hundreds of cattle, all winter long,
were exposed to the blasts of wind and the
showers of snow and hail, until their bodies
were encrusted with ice. The human brutes
who owned these yards employed the services of
the late Secretary of State, the Hon. Chauncey
M. Depew, and the Society those of the Assist
ant District Attorney, Mr. George W. Blunt. The
case came up before Justice Connelly, and the
brute proprietors won the day. Tueir recent
erection of a new milch-cow market, however,
is an involuntary tribute of the respect In which
the Society's power la held.
During this, the second year of tho Society's
existence, there have been over two hundred con
victions on the grouud of cruelty to auimals.
During the first year there were only sixty-six
Similar societies have beeu or are projecting in
Massachusetts, New Jersey, Missouri, and Call
fornia, betides the one that already exists iu
Philadelphia, and the branch one in Brooklyn.
Mr. Bergh is in the constant receipt of letters of
sympathy and encouragement, and it is oue of
the Idiosyncrasies of this indefatigable man that
he never allows one such letter to remain unan
swtrca. Arouua every writer who has once
benevolently committed himself, he endeavors
to raise a nucleus of a email S. P. C. A., by
fostering and cbcrishlDg, through means of his
epistolary art, the sentiments expressed.
It would, of course, bo too much to say that
individual members of the society have not
occasionally been betrayed Into indiscretion
through over zeal. As a rule, however, Its ope'
rations nave been managed with uncommon
prudence, and the results have been more than
commensurate with the expectations of some of
its beBt friends.
And now, at closing, I hesitate and ask myself
Ihe question whether it would be impertinent
to hint at the personal appearance of a gentle
man who reclved mo with exceeding courtesy
and answered all my questions fully and frankly
MontbB before I ever saw this widely known
Suppressor ot Cruelty, I, in common with others
who bad never seen him, used to ask myself what
could be the personne'ie of oue devoting bis life
to such an object. We nil agreed that it must,
from the nature of the cim-, be that of a short
apoplectic gentleman, llorid iu complexion and
of au extremely impulsive and efflorescent tem
per, ill who retain such plcturings will, upon
a visit to the office of the society, look around
iu vain lor the Mr. Bergh ot their imagluatioos,
Ho Is the very antipodes of such a portrait as
this, and talks with all the calmness of tho
philosopher and all the warmth aud sincerity of
the worker. In short, he is a gentleman who
does a great deal of hard, ungrateful work iu a
courugeoua and conscientious manner.
