government, which is Republican; and,
whereas, the Legislature of Virginia, elected
undor said Constitution, has ratified the
fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the
Constitution of tho United States; and
whereas the performance of these several acts

lie it enacted, etc. That the said State of
Virginia is entitled to representation in the
Congress of the United States, provided that
before any member of tho Legislature of said
State shall take or resume his seat, or any
officer of said State shall enter upon tho
duties of his office, he shall take and subscribe

of Virginia, for permanent preservation, an

CRUELTY TO ANIMALS.
Wo the Editor of the Eoening Tcleyraph.
As a writer must always appear to a disadvan
tage who does not understand his subject, I
decin it a kindness to our friend who writes
under the heading of "Benevolence Run Mad"
to put him right with regard to tho, views of the
"Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Ani
mals" relative to a "dog home." I am not a
member of that society, but have been told by
those who are "that it is an ascertained
fact that some miserable human
beings in the lower part of the city
rear dogs during the winter, for the purpose
of turning them on the streets when the dog
law goes in force. Of course the poor brutes
are easily caught by their owners, who then
receive the dollar reward." The brutal treatment
that the animals then suffer is past comment.
Let those who reside in the neighborhood of the
"round" tell. What the society propose doing
is to purchase some place to tuke the nameless
brutes to all the year. If " mangy'
and worthless, put an end to them
in a humane manner; if of value, find
homes for them in the rural districts, where
from experience I can say that they are a great
protection to life and property. This is quite
differcut from "erecting a hospital for mangy
curs with hired nureca." Tho "good old book"
to which our friend refers contains the follow
ing words: "Blessed are the merciful, for they
shall obtain mercy. It docs not limit tho ex
tension of mercy to the human race. And again:
"A righteous niun rcgurdcth the life of his
beast." Now are not these texts as well as tho
one quoted by our friend? Aud further, we are
told if we judge of tho motives of others at all,
It must bo done with, "righteous judgment."
Satire and ridicule are certainly at varlauce
with that command.
A Friend of all Gon's Creatures.
