Our Fence Laws.
THE FENCE LAWS OF PENN S YLVANIA
AND HOW THEY CAN BE IMPROVED
READ BEFORE THE STATE BOARD OF
AGRICULTURE. ,
The fence lairs of Pennsylvania are—or
rather the fence law of Pennsylvania is, as
defined by the &Orem Court of the State
in Gregg vs. Gregg, sth P. E. Smith,
page 227 of the reports as follows :
"All cornfields and grounds kept for
inclosures within said province and coun
ties annexed shall be well fenced, with
fenoe at least five feet high of sufficient
rail or logs and close at the bottom; and
whosoever, not having ground so inclosed
with such sufficient fence as aforesaid,
shall hurt, or do damage to any horse,
trine, sheep, hogs or goats of any other
persons by hurting or driving them off or
from said grounds, shall be liable to make
good all damages sustained thereby to the
owner of said cattle."--Act of 1700 vol.
Ist, page 693, Pardon's Dig.
The opinion of the court in this care
seems to settle the following points, and
are thus definite in the syllabus :
Ist. The common law required the
owner to keep his cattle within his close,
and their intrusion on another was a
trespass. This would be the rule in the
State except for the acts of Assembly
which impose duties upon the land owners
other than those of English common law.
2d. The owner of improved lands must
fence them both to restrain his cattle and
to shut out the cattle of his neighbors.
3d. Unless improved lands a-e enclosed
by a fence, the owner is in default and
cannot maintain trespass for damages by
roving cattle.
4th. The provision of the act of 1700,
that the owner of such cattle shall make
goo l all damages to the owner of the ec•
closure, if it be fenced according to law,
implies that without such fence there is
no such liability.
sth. A recovery cannot be had in any
case for damage which the negligence or
malfeasance of the plaintiff contributed to
bring on himself.
6th. Improved lands are required to be
fenced, and where it is theduty of a land
owner to fence his land he cannot recover
damages by stray cattle while he neglects
the duty.
A fair inference from the language of
the above quoted act of Assembly would
further be that the owner of waste fields
unenclosed woodlands would still have a
right of action against the owners of tres-
passing cattle, had not the courts held in
other cases that, although the right of
action existed by the common law, yet
because the damage are inappreciable they
should not be noticed; and because it is
better to treat waste lands as common
without limitation, to prevent vexations
litigation.
This act was passed when the country
was new, when improved fields were the
exception and not the rule, when fencing
material wag plenty and the only trouble
was to get rid of it, when rails and loge
were the only material used, when the
people were poor and unable to keep their
cattle without giving them the opportun - -
ty of promiscuous forage. Yet as the
country improved and increased in pope
lation, and the necessity of keeping cattle
in in inclosed fields became apparent, this
statute seems to have fallen into disuse ;
or was perhaps forgotten, and nothing was
more common than to find our lower courts
deciding that almost anything else was the
law than that, until it was again brought
to the front by raising the question in the
case above recited.
The act of 1784 for the counties of
Bedford, Westmoreland, Northumberland,
Washington and Fayette, to which I have
heretofore called the attention of the Board,
is entitled perhaps to be treated as a State
law, as the territorial extend of these five
counties at the time of the passage of the
act included all what is now called Western
Pennsylvania, and I feel quite sure is yet
the law in any of those counties constitut
ing the original five, unless superseded by
local and special enactments. For a
majority of them, however, local laws have
been enacted, not only for the counties.
but different laws for different townships
in the same county, a condition of things,
however which may be found all over the
State. This act of 1874 was the same in
substance or that portion of it remaining
unrepealed as the act of 1700, changing,
however, the height to 4i feet, allowing an
open space underneath, and fixing the
space between the rails to five inches.
The repeal of these two sets thereby leav
ing the common law in force were not
supplied by local acts, is the improvement
I would suggest as the only practicable
measure which the Legislature could more
than all be induced to entertain at this
time. 'The common law then, as we un
derstand it, would allow cattle to run at
large, making the owners responsible for
any damage exeept so far as allowing waste
fields and unenclosed woodlands to be free,
fir reasons heretofore stated in this arti
cle, and would only require owners to
fence in their own cattle instead of fencing
out their neighbors. No doubt it will be
come public sentiment in time to prohibit
cattle running at large, as has already
been done in several of the States; and in
a more remote time, when population shall
become dense and property valuable, and
all the economies a consideration ; when as
in Germany, all fences will be required to
be taken away, and cattle to be housed.

rottA tly
Godlike Condescension.
Many years ago circumstanc: , 4 threw Inc
for some months into the society of an
aged and learned Unitarian. We were
walking together one beautiful summer day
on the banks of a highland river, and sur
rounded by some of the sublimest Scottish
scenery, when the man of years and learn
ing suddenly paused, and, pointing to the
glories of sky and mountain, said with a
feeling of apparent devotedness, "What are
we worms creeping on the earth ? less than
nothing. Can you imagine that the God
who lighted those skies and clothed this
earth with beauty should become a man
and die for us ?"
I was very young and inexperienced at
the time, and could only say, "We are not
judges of what it befits the great God to
do. Besides, low as we are in sin and
misery, our nature was originally; high it
is spiritual, and was made in the image of
God." Before our walk was ended my
companion paused and said with deep
solemnity, "I do wish I knew what is
truth "
Years after it was my lot, as a young
pastor, to attend the deathbed of a youth
who had attained the highest honors, who,
during a part of his university course,
suffered much spiritual harm from what be
called "the subtle spirit of thrice diluted
infidelity" which pervaded "Comb's Con
stitution of Man," but who had happily
attained a clear and loving faith in Christ,
and had devoted his life to the service of
the gospel in China.
Mentioning to him one day the incident
which I have recited, my dying friend
raised himself on his couch, and, with an
expression of intense ardor in cis eyes,
said with energy .
"I would have taken him on his own
grounds. Real greatness cloes not consider
it degradation to stoop ; it condescends to
the meanest , and the loftier our concep
tions of Godhead, the readier shall we be
to believe that he did that wondrous thing,
take upon him the form of a servant, and
become obedient unto death."
My friend was right. I was godlike
love and "condescension to become man,
and to be born as He was in the city of
David. It. was godlike love to die for
sinners on the cross. The award of en
lightened reason, as well as of faith, is that
the incarnation and the whole incarnate
life were godlike. And the record of that
life is "with us unto this day," that we
may learn to follow in our lower sphere,
the example of him whom "though he was
rich for our sakes became poor."
The followihg homely but singularly
instructive lesson is by St. Philip Neri :
A lady presented herself to him one
day, accusing herself of being given to
slander. "Do you frequently fall into
this fault ?" inquired the Saint. "Yes,
Father, very often," replied the penitent.
"My dear child," said the Saint, "your
faith is great, but the mercy of God is still
greater ; for your penance, do as follows :
G-3 to the nearest market, purchase a
chicken just killed and still covered with
feathers; you will then walk to a certain
distance, plucking the bird as you go along;
your walk finished, you will return to me."
Great was the astonishment of the lady
in receiving so strange a penance; but
silencing all reasoning, she replied : "I
will obey, Father, I will obey " Accord
ingly, she repaired to the market, bought
the fowl and set out on her journey,
plucking it as she went along, as she had
been ordered.
In a short time she returned, anxoius to
tell of her exactness in accomplishing her
penance, and desirous to receive sonic ex
planation of one so singular.
"Ah !" said the Saint, 'ycu have been
very faithful to the first part of my orders ;
now do the second part and you will be
cured. Retrace your steps ; peas through
all the places you have already traversed,
and gather up one by one all the feathers
you have scattered."
"But, Father," exclaimed the poor
woman, "that is impossible. I cast the
feathers carelessly on every side ; the wind
carried them in different directions; how
can I now recover them ?"
"Well, my child," replied the Saint,
so it is with your words of slander, like
the feathers which the wind has scattered,
they have been wafted in many directions,
call them back now if you can. Go and
sin no more."
History dues not tell if the lady was
converted ; but it is probable. It required
a saint to give the lmon ; one should be a
fool not to profit by it.
The Preachings of Nature.
Nature is emblematical to man. The
autumn leaves fall, but they are not lost.
They die, but they are not annihilated.
The leaves decay, but the bud is a promise
of renovation. Black clouds in the sky
lower, but sunshine dispels them. The
bright star sets in the western horizon, but
again rises in the east. Night comes on'
but day succeeds it. Winter steals on
apace, but spring comes after. The soeg
of the birds has ceased, but to be renew. i'•
Sun shine and shower, beat and cold,
summer and winter, decay and renovation
—all nature—speak to man in varied tones,
gentle or stern, but be seldom understands
her language.
Nature says to man, "You fall like the
leaf, but you are not lost. You die, but
you are not annihilated. You decay, but
a germ of after-life is in you. Shadow.,
like clouds, cross your path, but brighter
days, like sunshine will succeed. Your
star appears to be extinguished or set for
ever, but it re-appears in another direction.
When your night Comes on it is not eter
nal, but day will re appear. Your ice
bound winter (fit emblem of despair) soon
brings spring, the emblem of hope. Your
pleasures, like the migratory birds . , at
times seem all to have departed, but never
mind, they will some day come back and
renew their song."

VEGETIN
WILL CURE RHEUMATISM.
Mr. A ib,rt Cror , ket, the well-known druggist and ap,,lh
ecary, of Springvale, Me., always as vises every one trou
bled with Rheumatism to try Vegetine.
READ HIS STATEMENT :
SPRINGVALF, ME., Oft., 12, 1876.
Mr. H. It. Stevens:—bear Sir—Fifteen years ago last fall
1 was taken sick with rheumatism, was linable to move
until the next April. Front that time until three years
ago this fall I suffered everything with rheumatism. Some
times there would be weeks at a time that I couldn't step
one step; these attacks were quite often. I sufferect every
thing that a man could. Over three years ago last spring
I commenced taking Vegetiue, and followed it up until I
had taken 7 bottles; have had no rheumatism since that
time. I always advise every one that is troubled with
rheumatism to try Yegetine, and not suffer for years as I
have done. This statement is gratuitous as far as Mr. Ste
vens is concerned. Yours, etc. ALBERT CROOK ER,

VEGETINE
HAS ENTIRELY CURED ME
BOSTON, Oct., 12, l'B7o.
Mr. H. R Stevens—Dear Sir:—My daughter, after hav
ing a severe attack of Whooping Cough, was left in a fee
ble state of health. Being advised by a friend she tried
Vegetine, and after using a few bottles was fully restored
to health.
I have been a great sufferer from rheumatism. I have
taken several bottles of Vegetine fur this complaint, and
am happy to say it has entirely cured me. I have recom
mended Vegetine to others with the same good results. It
is a great cleans, and purifier of the blood ; it is pleasant
to take and I can cheerfully recommend it.
JAS. MORSE, 364 Athens street.
RHEUMATISM_ IS A DISEASE OF
THE BLOOD.
Tile blood in this disease, is found to contain an excess
of fibrin. Vegetine acts by converting the blood from its
diseased condition to a healthy circulation. Vegetine reg
ulates the bowels which is very important in this com
plaint. One bottle of Vegetine will give relief; but, to ef
fect a permanent cure, it must be taken regularly, and
may take several bottles, especially in cases of long stand
ing. Vegetine is sold by all druggists. Try it, and your
verdict will be the same we that of thousands before you,
who say, "I never found so much relief as from the nee rf
Vegetine," which is composed exclusively of Barks, Boots
and Herbs.
"Vegetine" says a Reston physician, "has no equal as a
blood purifier. Hearing of its many wonderful cures, after
all other remedies had failed, I visited the labratory and
convinced myself of its genuine merit. It is prepared from
barks, roots and herbs, each of which is highly effective,
and they are compounded in such a main Cr as to produce
astonishing results.
