The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is one that deserves the heartiest , sympatby and support at the hands of all humane people. it proposes to do a greatly needed work, and so far as it proceeds wisely and vigorously, it will be sustained by the strong arm of public opinion. But it is laboring under a direful hindrance at the hands of a few of its friends who, in the excess of their benevolence, have not the least idea of the cruelty they are inflicting upon the community, through the medinni of small tracts, supposed to have a fine effect upon public morals, but only calculated to • bring the Society into disrepute and their authors Into ridicule. The second of these tracts on cruelty to • animals has lately been published. It is a continuation of that delightful work, "Mr, Townsend's Walk and Conversation with His Children," which was noticed at some length _ when- first—published.--- The second part is just a trifle less absurd than the first, though the shade of difference is only detected by a earefill perusal, The wretched parent of the !Townsend family continues to instil in the Infant minds of his defenceless children the most horrible sugges tions of cruelty, done up in any amount of mawkish, silly sentimentality, which must demand an inordinate degree of filial credulity on their part. A specimen or two will serve for illustration: He informs his be nighted offspring that a horse should never be whipped. He tells them of a method of curing balky horses which he considers far more humane. He knew—or he says he knew—"a donkey wot wouldn't go"—that is . to say, a horse. He stopped in the middle of the road. .His master took a fence-rail,— , which probably did not belong to hitn,—and whittled it down to a picket, which he drove into the ground and then tied the poor beast to it and "left him in the cad all that night and part of the next day without fopd or. water !" There is a refinement of cruelty in the suggestion which is, however, cast into the shade by Townsend's next. Town send owned a dog. He was a dog possessed with "almost human affection." . But, alas! he loved mutton, and one day he killed some sheep. The neighbors complained, and Townsend agreed to shoot the affectionate Tray. Being tender-hearted himself, he or dered "James" to shoot the mutton-loving Tray, but just at the fatal moment, Tray wagged his tail and Townsend burst into tears. Tray was reprieved. His sentence was reconsidered, and commuted, for it was before the days of Keating and Mayloy versus the Commonwealth. Townsend then determined to cure him by means of an exquisitely ingenious torture. He ties Tray up in a bag, and lays him in a gate-way and drivel ta /lock of sheep over him. The sheep trampled him nearly to a jelly, and he knew "by smelling the wool" what they were. From that day, he was cured. Strange to say, he not only avoided live sheep ever after, but would not touch a broiled mutton-chop for his dinner. The savageness of Town send's treatment of his poor dog, as com pared with the much more humane expe dient of shooting him, will be apparent to .every_ one. ° Passing over some nonsense about a bunch of grapes which he says "sin converts iato wine,"—a discovery eminently Townsendian, the venerable prattler indulges in a brief dis quisition on chickens. Ile says they "have but a short existence in this world," and he thinks they should, thereibre, never be car. Tied to market with their heads downward. Everybody knows that many chickens would be much more to the purpose if their exist ences were considerably shorter than they are; and everybody knows that poultry, as a rule in these parts, comes to market ready killed,- Which is probably . &crime ilrthe eyes of Townsend who, no doubt, waits for his own poultry until it dies a natural death. From chickens the transition to calves is easy and rapid. Townsend allows, his three little children to despoil themselves of all , their treasures, to the amount of six dollars, as a ransom for a cruelly-treated calf, while he contributes never a penny himself It is to be hoped that the Society's funds are not disposed of by this careful publisher, on the Erne principle. There is a disquisition on I , ,eese which is, perhaps, the moat interesting passage in the hopk, inasmuch as it asserts that there are more stupid birds in the world than geese. ''her( is an ohlenionoble bit t , t gstinn: however, where Townsend informs his un- tnspeoling children that "when boys do fool- ish things, his very natural to call them a goose also." s Townsend prays that pdas cte laic grets may never be introduced—into-4111s--countryr though it may be questioned whetlter Town send has not, in his day and generation, done somewhat to encourage their importation. We have touched briefly upon a few of the salient points of this absurd tract. I. would not be worthy of any notice, were it not set forth with the imprint of a Society, which comprises such names as Pinney, Welsh, Phillips, Fell, Waln, McMichael, and the like, in its list of officers. It is true that the name of Vaux appears on the Exec utive Committee,but even the Vaux of. Girard College and the Grand Lodge never perpe trated anything so childishly inane or absurd as the Walks of Mr. Townsend. Mr. Vemx woukl scorn the authorship of such trash,and the Society owes it to itself and to the good cause which it espeuses> to suppress such parodies and caricatures upon humanity, or deep compel Townsend to indulge his 'mom-- tams seribondi over his own imprint and at his own expense. Chief Engineer McCusker, of the Fire Department, has already given strong proofs of his capacity for his position; but if he can stop one nuisance that exists to a terrible degree, he will receive the thanks of the whole community. We refer to the homble and unnecessary noise made in the streets on every alarm of' fire. The shouting and bel lowing of men and boys, the ringing of bells the barking of dogs, and the general infernal din made as the machines pass along the streets, are entirely unnecessary, and they create wide-spread alarm and uneasi ness. This morning, before four o'clock, there was an alarm, and the whole population of the western part of the city were roused up and frightened into a notion that a terrible conflagration wag: raging. Such disturbances are bad enough to people in good health. But their effect upon the sick, and upon nervous women and child ren, who are to be found in every square, is sometimes positively injurious. No firet were ever extinguished or even checked by such unearthly noises as are made by the Philadelphia firemen. There is no reason why unpaid firemen should make more noise than paid firemen; and in all those cities where they have paid fire departments the firemen go about their work as quietly as pos sible. The Chief Engineer may not have any legal power to compel the Philadelphia fire men to aet in the same way; but his , influenee may be sufficient to effect a partial reform. Such frightful disorders as that of this morn ing occur In some part of the city nearly every day or night, and for the sake of the peace of the city and the comfort of the in habitaiitticeipecially th - e sick aird . nervous, they ought to be put an end to. Zniile de Girardln. Then is not a more slashing, uncompromising editor - in Paris than Emile de Girardin, of the Li4ortZ. Timothde Trimm, a Peeping Tom of the mot city, has been indiscreet again, and . Teals what he saw in the Library of the great Man; his account occurs in a recent number of the one-ion Peat Journal. " No Elzevirs, not a precious book, all useful; and you feel by the arrangement of the shelves that you are in the house of a practical man; no need of ladders, everything handy. piled and classed methodically. Above the cases there are oil paintings, as thus : M. and Mine. de. Girardin; then lithographs; M. and Mme. de Girardin; then photographs; then M. Alexandre de Girardin; then a statuette, then Mme. de Girardin ("Delphtne Gay") As for the 'works of art, neither Raphael, nor. Titian, nor Rations; everything is modern; it is all rich, even sumptuous; but not in the least artis tic. At the ley, nt the end of the library, you and the study of M. de Girardin. Uncover, inan! For plenty of people it is a star chamber. Ex amine the corners and yen will discover multi tudes of little red portfolios; they are as full as the box of Pandora; what they hold ia incalcula ble; what M. de Girardin has been stuffing into them for thirty years is prodigious. Every mau of mark has his budget. There is more than one who would take the wall of you on the boulc • yards, who, if the study canghtlire, would never go for the engines. "If M. do Girardin has to cite a document, never goes and hunts it; his memory is so certain that at the distance of twenty years he recollects a date, a name or a fact. "At eight, M. de Girardin, with a brown dress ing-gown tied around the waist, has seated him self in his study. For three flours he writes, reads and clips; the ground is strewn with muti lated journals of every sort, from the official if mite-lir to the hniriblest provincial sheet. At nine, John brings in upon a silver waiter a break fast of two dishes, which is despatched in a wink. About ten the visitors arrive. All who come are shown in; all go away in at most ten minutes. Le temps, c'est l'argent. At noon the horses are put to, and—but I don't know, I never followed the carriage." Harpers for April. We receire from G. W. Pitcher this most pop ular of the monthlies. The number opens with a first paper by Hon. E. G. Rquier" — the ethnolo gist and Peruvian explorer, to which we shall recur preseattly. The more noticeable articles are then: "Du Chaffin, Gorillas, and Cannibals" --(three intimate links, are wo to suppose, in the order of being?)—"The Woman's Kingdom," by the author of "John Halifax;" "The Golden Fleece," from the French of Laboulaye, trans lated by Mary L. Booth, whose fe licity as an interpreter has improved since she let slit) so many Gallicisms • into her translation of the same author's "Paris en Amd rique." The review of the past and present rela tions between "Congress and the Supreme Court," comes in appropriately before the judi ciously condensed "Monthly Record." The "Die.). Chair," always sensible without pedantry and witty without malice, utters this month the very last word to bo said on poor Yictoria's High % land diari. In the matter of Illustrations; Nur- Eer's is going down before our eyes and ship wrecking; the original pictures are mean and rude, and those transferred from English prints 11;113 Muloch's story) ruined in being re-cut. As for Mr. &Juices initial paper tin travel in the Inca regions, it cannot but bespeak universal attention for Itself and its followers. We have no man of selence among us who is master of such au easy and sparkling style; the reader of these essays will h beguiled into his ethnological studies by all the eharm of tourist-narrative, com bined with easy humor and a paladin capacity for romance. Wondering, as we all 'have won dered, what was to be the form in which Mr. Bottler would lay before the world the facts am no fantod during his official appointment at Lima, we ac , ?ept these pages with gratitude us a fan d. iia introduction to tie valuabie‘ scientific records THE DAILY EVENING DIMATIN.-PIIILADELPIIIA, WEDNESDAY, 'MARCH 25.186. .which meet ensue- We cannot resist , the, temp tation of Sharing with the 'readers of thin 13171,1,1 - ITN a picture or two which have cangiet our eye in reading these delightful columns. Take, for example, the sketchy and graphic way he which ho hits-off the Bolivian mule t "1 confess to a decided Ulna for mules—not 'less for their patience, sure-foritedneas, and faith service than for their littlitewleked ways. The cargo-mule Woke that Every moment his load can be evaded bean hotir of happiness gained; and although, whoa it Is once on his back, he will walk oil resumed, if not 'perfectly content, ho will resort to every expedient his thick head is capable of devising to avoid re ceiving . it. There was one, however, the largest and most powerful of the lot, who held out to the last; and nothing could be done with him IJD til a po n cho was thrown ever his head and tied under his throat, leaving only his nose un covered. But the spite and malice that quivered in the withdrawn upper lip, and glanced from his broad, yellow teeth, and nestled in every wrinkle when the girths were tightened by two men surging on each side, with one foot braced against hie ribs, were past deecriptiou. He be came quiet enough, however, long before we got to Puno, and as humble as the rest." When the narrator has el more romantic crea ture to delineate, the llama, he insensibly elevates his style; contemplate this night-piece: "Before going to bed F. went out to the corral. The llamas had been fed each with a handful of maize, and were crouching on their bellies, with their kgs mysteriously folded beneath their fleeces and invisible, but with their heads erect, and eers thrust forward, chewing their cude with-an expression of . distant contemplation. such as we often observe in confirmed smokers. If I were to paint a picture of Rest It would not be of a, child in' slumber, of a Hercules leaning on his club, nor yet of a harvester reclining be side his sheaves, but of a llama in repose. The group impresSed me in the starlight as the sphinxes did when looking up the lane of Luxor. The Indians who had charge of the llamas had built up a semicircular wall against the wind with bags of barilla, and had lighted a smouldering fire, thrusting into iL from time to time fragments of meat, which they ate from their fingers, while their poor dish of eheee seethed and simmered over the unfragrant em bers. They were as silent and abstracted as the animals they attended, and took no apparent heed of what went on around them." Finally, take this giddy panorama.commanded from the ridge beside Lake Titicaca, at an eleva tion of 1(,1,00 feet above the sea : " Nowhere else in the world, perhaps, can a panorama so diversified and grand be obtained from a single point of view. The whole great table-land of Peru and Bolivia, at . its widest part, with its own system of waters, its evrn rivers and lakes, its own plains and mountains, all framed in by the ranges of the Cordillera and the Andes, is presented like a map before the adventurous visitor who climbs to the op:- cheat of Tialmanaeo. Grand, severe, almost sullen is the aspect which nature presents here. We stand in the centre of a scenery and a terres trial system which seems to be is spirit, as well us in fact, lifted above the rest of the world, coldly and calmly looking down upon it, sharing. none of its sympathies, and disturbed by none of its alarms. The silent, wondering vicuna, the gliding llama, the great condor circling high np in the air, or sailing down as if in menace, the absence of forests, • the clouds surging up from the dunk plains and forests of Brazil, only to be precipitated and dissolved by the snowy barriers which they cannot pass, the clear metallic blue sky above, the keen sun light, the awful silence—all impress the traveler With the feeling that he is no longer in the world ' that be has known before. Not an unfitting. region this for the development of an original civilization like that which has carved its memo _xialein_rnassive stonesond. left-thorn the -plain-- of Tiahnanaco at our feet, and of which no tra dition remains except that they were the work of giants, who reared them in a single night." As an example of just what a child's monthly should be, take the Nurser!, the April number of which reaches us from the publisher, John L. Shorey, of Boston. Filled with plain and vivid illustrations, the subjects of which are children, and accommodated with different sizes of type for the various axes of the small readers, 11 scarcely leaves a juvenile wish ungratified. On glancing at the matter thus advantageously printed, we no longer wonder at the warmth of the commendatory letters received at the ofllce of this pretty brochure from a host of grateful fathers and mothers. In the way.of juvenile music, we notice tha t Mr. James Pearce, organist of St. Mark's P. E . Church, has Issued cheap editions, upon half sheets, of. his tune "Quebec" to the "Evening Hymn," of the chant "Reynolds" to the hymn "Just as I am," and of his arrangement of "Even ing" to the famous old words - Jerusalem the Golden."

Two Men Burled Alive. [From the rittabergh Cloacae, March 94th.] A distressing accident occurred at the Superior Brick Works, one.milo east of Torrens station, on the Pennsylvania Railroad, yesterday morn ing, by which two of the employes, Jacob Sad dler and Joseph Petigrew, met with a horrible death. They had just been employed yesterday morning and were set to work excavatiag cidy. The superintendent, it appears, warned • them to tie careful and left them at work. He returned about au:lhour afterwards •to, see how they were progressing,, and:discovered that the bank had caved in. but no signs of the workmen were visible. ,:Tools were obtained and men .set to work to ascertain if they had been buried , in the pit. After digging down about one foot. the body of one, of, the omen Wall found and taken ard a feW bcmeattr it the other was discovered, They were both dcnd. Cht .mnr Clawson was notified, and held an inquest on the bodice yesterday afternoon, when the jury ren dered a verdict in accordance with the ftetp,. Saddler was twenty; live years of age,and PetigreW twenty-onc. They were single men. /Me Norgettnit (Bates; fitubbLa Pricked. MOM the fttadhon (Win )Journal. March '25.1 Sergeant Bates. for home time before the be . ginning of his "march," lived at Edgerton. a small village on the railroad, about twenty-five milts cast of Ns city. A citizen of Edgerton, whu was in our office a few days ago, says the story that, he laid a wager with another'citimen of that place, that he could carry a Drawl States flag through the Southern States, bad no founda tion. Bates is a young and worthless sort of a f€ilow, tad a violent DeMocrat. During the War be was a member of an artillery cora pang stationeil at Washington, but was never engaged in any battle, and saw no service more serious than drawing his rations and spend ing his pay about the capital. Last fall lib went into Milwaukee, and after an absence of some (Jaya there appeared on the Democratic side of the A'r fling iv °twin a long ticusUionalay, , count of the nem ndous march which Sergeant, Bates, in accordance with a wager, was.about to 11 (kr! eke through the Souther Settee. From time to time the krieconAin gave a column in the best sensational style of one of its Democraqc editors, and other Democratic papers and some Republican lepers began to have para graphs and longer articles about Sergeant Bates. When he left Edgerton it was understood that he would be provided with a suit of black velvet and a flag by his patrons on reaching LOlllsvillo,_Ky., the dress being devised to Impart a romantic look to the flag-bearer. Meanwhile word was passed through the South, and the progress of Ser2e3u t Bates has been made the occasion for demonstra tions by the secesh element of simulated enthu siasm over the national flag. The whole affair is a very cheap trick. RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE. The Christian Convention.
