Elhilolidignit Cruelty to Animals.
Megerti. "Sailor:: In a recent issue of the
Press, I noticed a short communication on the
subject of the Dog Pound, on Corinthian
avenue. Since seeing it, .I . have obtained fur
ther information, and am truly say the halfis
not stated in that.article of the useless and bru
tal cruelty practised by the (so-called) superior
beings upon their miserable victims. I. would
not sicken the readers of the BuLLETLN by the
shocking account of the crushed limbs, cruel
beating and barbarous methods of,putting to
death there perpetrated; nor would I so ninth'
as allude to scenes which would--slake even a
strong man shrink in disgust, were it not that
I have a:hopepf some reform being secured by
the revelation of these disgraceful proceedings,
which are permitted, if not sanctioned, by our
numicipal authorities.
The
,poor dogs are often enticed from houses.
or yar&, so that they can be captured,and cru
elly caught by the legs,, which are twisted until
the bones are broken. '1 state this ranch, but
must leave it to your readers to guess at the
wanton cruelty which follows. This has been
seen by reliable witnesses, and can be proved.»
A very bad feature in this business of "dog
catching" is giving to the men who . _ follow it:,
one dollar for each dog captured. If a,rea
sonable sum were paid regularly to them, and
the wages fixed, one temptation to overstep
lawful bounds in the prosecution of their work
would be removed. Surely this reform might
be easily made.
And as to the situation of the Pound, it
seems to me a wicked, or at least culpably,'
thoughtless arrangement, which has located it,
not only where it is a grief and annoyance to
private citizens, but also where the Inmates of
the Northern Home for Friendless Children
and Of the House of Refuge, are within the
daily Sight and sound of this brutal cruelty:
If the children of the Home are good 'and in
nocent, then how painful upon their , young
hearts -must be the effect of, hearing the cries
and yells of the • frightened animals, tor
mented before they are unmercifully killed !
And if, as is the case too Often in the House of
Refuge, they are already inclined to bad ways,
how terribly dangerous a lesson are our au
thorities permitting them to learn! If those
boys Imow, as they do, that such things are
done, and not prevented by the Mayor of the
city t surely their previous evil propensities will
receive a downward push; and the same muni
cipal power that confines them to the House of
Refuge for their reformation and restraint
from wicked practices, is allowing, within their
knowledge and almost before their eyes,
as entirely within their hearing, an ex
ample of brutality and law-breaking cruelty
that must be injurious, and which does more
harm than all the plans for their bene
fit can possibly do good. I would strongly ad
vocate the removal of the Pound to some dis
tant place, away from citizens'houses, and any
of our public institutions. Anti more strongly
still,that until a real reform is effected, and the
work is done mercifully, the public press
should urge such reform and -every effort
for the suppression of the horrible acts now
daily perpetrated in the Dog Pound. Could
not the excellent Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals devise some wise and effi
cient means of interfering to set this thing
right ? A FRIEND TO ANIMALS.
The Dog Pound.
To the E(litor of the Evening Bulletin: On
the 29th day of March, A. D. 1869, Governor
Geary approved an ."Act for the. Ptmishment
of Cruelty to Animals in this Commonwealth,"
which had been duly passed by the Legislature
of Pennsylvania.'
The first section provides that "any person
who shall, Within this Commonwealth, wan
tonly or cruelly ill-treat, overload, beat, or
otherwise abuse any anitual, whether be
longing to himself or otherwise, • • •
• • * • shall be deemed guilty.of a-misde
meanor, and on being convicted thereof before
any alderman or magistrate, shall be fined by
the said alderman or magistrate, for the first
offence, in a stun not less than' , $lO, nor more
than V. 20; and for the'sectind offence, and , every
subsequent offence, in a stun nitt\less than $2O,
nor exceeding $5O;. * • • ••• and if
such fine or penalty, and the, costa of the pro
eeedingi,,be not paid, then said alderittan or
magistrate shall commit said offender to the
county prison, there to remain until discharged
by due course of law." . •
.• .• •
Section 5 enacts: "Any.. piliceman or con-.
stable of the city or tounty,or any agent, of the
Pennsylvania • Society' for the: Prevention: of
Cruelty to'Aninials;,:shall, upon his own view
of such misdemeanor, or upolithe complaint of
any other person, who may declare his • or her
name and abode to such policeman, constable
or agent, make arrests, and bring before any
alderman or magistrate thereof,.otlenders found
violating the provisions of this act."
I wish to inquire thrOugh your paper, which
is always ready to come forward in the inte
rests of humanity and civilization, whether
these provisions cannot be applied to the cruel
ties practised in . one of onr City institutions,'
known as the Dog ,Pound, where • useless curs
who have no owners are killed. The inten
tion must hive been to put them to death as
mercifully as possible, but any resident in its
vicinity will tell you this is not carried out. I
wish to know whether the dog-catchers and
dog-killers cannot be made to keep this law;
or, failing in 'obedience, be arrested and fined
according 'to this act.
Yours respectfully, L. A.

CITY BULLETIN.
CHARGED WITH OVERLOADING PASSENGER
CAus.—lames Lewis, conductor of Car No. 2,
of the Union Passenger Railway Company,
and John Shaven, driver of the same, were
before Alderman Hibberd yesterday afternoon,
to answer the charge of cruelty to animals, in
overloading said ear on Sunday last.
Mr. James Kilpatrick, agent of the Society
for, the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, who
made the complaint, testified that his attention
was attracted to ear N 0.2, on Sunday
last, at Ridge. avenue and Spring Garden
street, by noticing that the near horse ap
peared to be exhausted, and traveled with
Lis head dawn.. Finding that the car was
crowded, he (Kilpatrick), with Mr. Williams,
a friend; got upon the platform, and Williams
went inside the car and counted sixty passen
gers, all grown. Witness, with his friend, re
mained upon the car, and noticed twenty-three
passengers get off at Twenty-third and brown
streets, and forty-three when they reached the
ark.. Witness could swear positively to there
tang sixty persons n• - tlie car;
that the near horSe was much exhausted when
he arrived at the depot.
The witness, on 'being cross-examined by
Mr. Ridgway, said that he did not see a third
horse attached to the, car at the grade at
Twenty-third street, and that he (witness) got
on the car, while it was overloaded, to ascer
tain the number in it.
There being no other Witnemes, the . Ahler
man said that he did notice] diSposed to decide
the case, by imposing a line as directed by the
act of ssembly, but would rather have the
matter settled . by the' Court;
would hold the parties charged to bail to
answer at Court.

Councils to visit the Park on the . 16th irtat., to
inspect improvements already completed, and
those contemplated. The invitation was ac
cepted. • . .
A number of , petitions were received asking

A conununication was'redeived from the la

The ordinance authorizing the sale of a, por
tion of the Almshouse property to the Trus
tees of the University of Pennsylvania was
ta,ken up.
Mr. Mcllvain sUbmitted an, amendment,
which changes the boundaries as given in the
original bill, thus giving substantially another
lot. , It was stated that this was, the result of a
compromlsebetween the members of the Com
mittee and the trustees.
Mr. McCall submitted a further amendment,
which Provides that the University shall never
use the ground for any purpose other' than
that for which the Institute was chartered,
and that if it is sold at any time the city is to
have the privilege of purchasing at the original
price. /
Mr. Mcllvain accepted this as part of his
amendment.
Mr. Cattell said, with reference to the corn
promise,that there was a misunderstanding.
At the visit Mr. Meilvain had said he would
rather give a particular square of ground
than sell the Al acres at $B,OOO.
Mr. Mcflvain—Give the city's property?
Mr. Cattell—That was the understanding of
the Trustees, and they thought it best to accept
that kind of a compromise.
Mr. Mc'llvain-1 certainly never.l . ..i;itended
any such proposition. I meant to ve the,
square for a tairconsideration.
Mr. Cattell opposed the amendment. , The
ground would not suit the purposes of the
Trustees, while the original ground is to be
sold at a good price.
Mr. Franciscus opposed the amendment as
calctilated to defeat the bill.
.Mr. Hopkins favored the amendment, while
he doubted the power of the city to sell so long
as there was an outstanding loan for the origi
nal purchase of the ground.
Mr. Smith suggested that Mr. Hopkins had
destroyed the force of his argument. Hit was
true that there was a lien of one million of
dollars against the land, then it would not sell
for much, and the members of Councils ought
to accept the $B,OOO an acre from those who
are willing to take it with the incumbrance.
The amendment of Mr. Mcllvain was not
agreed to—yeas 11, nays It
Mr. Duffy submitted an amendment, that in
consideration of the grant, the University
shall admit annually ten boys, to be selected
front the Grammar schools, said admissions to
he free. This amendment was opposed by
Messrs. Cattell, Franciscus,King and Cochran.
The latter-stated that at present one-tenth of
the pupils were charity pupils, but under the
present system it was not known, whereas,
under Mr. Dutly's resolution, every one of
these pupils would be known and stigmatized
as charity pupils, and to that extent their self
respect destroyed.
The amendment was not agreed to—yeas 8,
nays 11.
Mr. Hodgdon opposed the bill upon the
same ground as on the former Occasion when
the bill . watt up.
Mr. King offered an amendment substitu
ting for the original lot, - two squares, not ex
ceeding ten acres, between Thirty - third and
Thirty-fourth. streets, and Locust and Pine.
He Suggested that this would be in the interest
of the, ••University. He was satisfied that
$B,OOO per acre was more than a fair price for
the land, and it would be well for the UniVere•
sity to have no more ground than Was abso
lutely needed for its purposes. He favored
the proposition to sell, and referred to the fact
that every newspaper in. the ; city had sup
ported it.
Mr. McCall—'
"Paid' for ?"
Mi. King—"No, sir. Every article, I be.:
lieve, was written from proper motives and in
•the best interests of the city."
Mr. Cattell said he, was in favor of the bill
and would vote forithe amendment if it would
assist it; but he was authorized to say that be
fore ; the bill waa signed by the Mayor an
agreement Would'be made by. the Trustees to
sell back to the city ail over- ine or ten acres,
required for the University. -

THE RECOGNITION op GDR IN THE.VEDBEAL
CONSTITUTION.-A public meeting was. held
last evening at the A.cademy of Music, to con
sider 'the proposed acknowledgment of
Almighty God and the'Christian. religion in
the Constitution of the - United States: There
was a large attendance, and many ladies were
among the audience. Hassler's Orchestra was
present. '
Hon. Wm. Strong presided. l'he' Prodeed
ings were opened with prayer by 'Rev. Dr:
Wylie.
. Judge Strong then addressed the meeting,
stating its 'object not to be to influence any
chango of the Government, its form or , Its
operation. Nor is it to effect any change of
the religion of the country. Neither is it to
effect a union of Church and State. But it is
to do what of all things seems 'fit to 'us to be
done—to, .acknowledge in the fundamental
law of the country. that. as n a nation' we , are
dependent upon ' the benign goodnesS of
Almighty God. It is a source of amazement
when we look 4, back to what the country was
before the Revolution, that wee do not find
a recognition in the Constitution of the
all-governing power and control - of God.
Pennsylvania never to this day has in its
most important paper failed to recognize
that God reigns as well upon earth as .in
heaven. He believed that all the original
States that formed the Union, pursued the same
course. We are the only country that has a
written Constitution. It was passed:by a Con
vention, many of which were religious men.
In the unwritten constitutions of other coun
tries the power of God was recognized. We
find it in the British statutes, and in all those
countries it was fully recognized that it "was
the hand of God that had guided them, and
that upon His arm they depended. Since the
war certain efforts have been made to amend,
and certain amendments have been adopted to
our Constitution, and now there is another
proposed amendment. .It is a fitting time to
recognize that He governs the world through
His Sou, and that we are dependent upon
Him.
Rev. J.ll. W. Sloane, of Allegheily,was then
introduced, and spoke at some length, main
taining that during the late war we claimed
the Divine right of existence as a nation; that
we had declared that the Bible should not be
taken Iron:l'9hr that Nite ;are A
Christian Peeple; that all nations have a re
cognition of the overruling power of. God;
that all political States, however they Might
differ, agreed that they were dependent' upon
Him, and that it was eminently,proper, in fact
a duty that we crived - ourselves, that 'such a
recognition of the Supreme Power should be
embodied in thaFederal Constitution.
..Rev. T. P. Stephenson, then read the t
follow
ing resolutions, whiah, Were adopted':.;
Resolved, That waliold it to be a triftlilaught
at once by right reason and the voice of reve
lation that Almighty God; is the source, of all
authority and power in civil 'government; and
that His moral laws are of supreMe authority
in all national as well as individual life and
affairs.
ReSolvecl, That we hold civil society to be a
diViiie institution, and nations to. be moral.
Creatures of ' God;.to - whom He gives. His law,
whoa). He rewards and punishes,preserves and
destroys on the same righteous principles on
'which .ITaitinils - With indiViddel men. , • •
Roo/rcel, Tbatthesethings beingso,a,riatiohal
acknowledgment . of Almighty God, of His
Son by whom He governs the world, and of
the supreme authority iaw, is clearly a
public duty which it is national peril' to disre
gard.
• Resolved; That as the formationof a written
constitution is the 'first-andlighest exercise of
sovereign. authority. on thapart of, the nation,
the appropriate. place for such an acknowledg
ment is in the Constitution.
Resolved, That in view of the diffusion of re
ligious principles and• institutions thtoughout
our country; in view of the many express re
cognitions of Christianity by the several States,
and in the administration of the General Gov
ernnient, itls a striking and'solemn -fact that
the Constitution of the United States contains
no recognition of the authority of God, and
lays the .',Gavernment, which it establishes,
under no' obligations to.obey His law.
The meeting then dispersed. • •
THE QLDrM is HOME.—Last -night the
fourth,annitersary of 'the prals6worthy insti
tution in West Philadelphia, known,,as the
"Old Man's Home,"'. was Celebrated in the
First Baptist Church, corner of Broad and
Arch streets, at which 'there was a large at
tendance. As previously stated, the building
at Thirty-ninth street and Powelton avenue, ;
heretofore occupied by the institution, having
proven too small for its sphere of 'usefulness, a
lot of ground has been purchased by its man
agers of 'extended dimensions,' upon which a
commodiouS and suitable building will be
erected as soon as the necessary amount of
funds are obtained. It •is expected that the
sum of ten thousand dollars will be sufficient
for this purpose, of which amount two thou
sand dollars have been contributed on condi
tion that the other eight thousand dollars be
subscribed.
During the past year the Board of Managers
paid oft $3,500 of the indebtedness of the
institution, invested $1,325, supported .the in
stitution, and report a balance of $536 67.
The institution is " one Well deserv
ing of , the encouragement and " aid
of the truly charitable, who, by con
tributing to it,will be indirectly assisting many
an aged person to live in respectability and
contentment, who in days gone by was not
obliged to depend upon the charity of the
public. The many and constantly occurring
vicissitudes and changes of life make such oc
currences not.unfrequent, .and-there is, there
fore, in an establishment suelras this a strong
and urgent claim on the friends of, the aged
-
poor
The services .of last evemng were quite, en
tertaining in character ' and much interest was
manifested in theni by the assemblage present.
Rev.: Dr. Henry, of the West PhiladelPhia
Presbyterian Church, presided, and made a
i
strenuous appeal in behalf of the. nstitution,as
did also the ReV.Megarti - .' , Phillips -Brooke, 'A.
A."Willits _and J.C. Kuriklemann..
. •
They' severally referred 'to the advantages
and benefit) of the institution,-giving
tom of its practical usefulneas,and commend

exercises were interspersed--by choice vocal
selections by the choir, and a snug Bain was

Ramoviirl- OF , THEO DE
Tiv*s.—Joseph Enett, Chief of Detectives,
,left the department yesterday, under some
what peculiar circumstances. About a week
sings, a man, who gave.the, name Jacob M.
Myers, was arrested at the depot of the North
Penpsylvania Railroad Company, on the
charge of breaking Intel fobbing one of
,the station houses on the road. Upon being
taken to the Central Police Station he was
'recognized as a fugitive from justice from
Northampton, Bticlof cobra's'', for whose arrest
a 'reward of five hundred dollars was offered.
Chief Eneu, thereupon, sent the prisoner to
Bucks county in charge of Sergeant Crout, of
the Reserves, who brought back the five hun
dred dollars reward'. Of this amount, fifty
dollars were given to a railroad:,conductorcon
cerned in the arrest, and fifty dollars to the
policeman who took the , fugitive into custody.
They appeared to be at first satisfied with this
sum, and signed a receipt to the effect that
they,would not proceed against the authorities
of Bucks county for the recovery of , the four
hundred dollars. , When Mayor Fox was
informed of the course of the Chief it
did not meet with his approval, and he
expressed .the opinion that the' whole of the
reward belonged to the conductor and the
policeman who xnadd the arrest. The Chief
deolined to hand over the portion of the re-.
ward in his possession, And the Mayor gave
him twenty-four hours to consider the matter.
The time expired at twelve o'clock yesterday,
and at one o'clock, the Chief not having sig
nified his intention to yield,- the Mayor sent
him a notification that his services would ba
thenceforth dispensed with. The • Chief said
that he had his resignation written and in
tended to present it in the course of the morn
ing, but was induced to withhold it by the per
suasion of friends. The Mayor has placed
Lieutenant Brurein, of the Seventh District,
in charge pf the detective department, tem
porarily. •

NEW JERSEY MATTERS:
m roitTitxr.—There is considerable misap
prehension existing in the different counties
of New Jersey, with reference to the duties of
County Physician and Coroner, where either
or both are summoned to investigate the cir
cumstances attending a sudden or.suspicious
death. The following provision of the. law
may be of use to parties interested in Camden
county :--'Uud all the duties not required by
law to be performed by Corners, or Justices
(lithe Peace, in making such view and inquiry
to ascertain if an inquest should be held, shall
heyeufler be perforMed. by said County Physi
cian, and not said coroners and Justices of

capes of sudden or suspicious de.ath, the
County Physician should.first be notified, and
upon his examination the necessity for an in
quest will be determined.'
A SCAM TN CUSTODY. -Yesterday after
noon a young man of rather prepossessing ap
pearance was arraigned before Mayor Cox on
a charge of haVing :committed an assault and
battery upon a little , girl . named Anna Abel,
with felonious intent. It appears that he visi
ted Diamond Cottage Garden, where a party
bad assembled •for a sort "of pic-nie..holiday,
and employed several devices to ingratiate
himself into the acquaintance of the Ohild,and
finally induced her to go walking %with ., him
through several streets. He, then took her
into a by-place, whore, it is 'alleged; lie as
saulted her. Severalpersonshad obseßved his
manoeuvres, and when violence was used they
arrested him. He was committed to, answer
the charge at the next .term of: the Camden
county courts.
HADDON AVENDB.—Workmen have already
commenced,setting the curbs and depositing
paving materials along Haddon avenue, from
Federal street to Newton avenue, the
boundary line of the city of Camden. This
work is done at the instance of a majority of
property owners. For many years the high
way was kept in partial repair by the Haddon
field, Mount Ephraim and N' hite Horse Turn
pike Companies conjointly, but at the expira
tion of their charter over this particular section
of the road, it reverted to the control of the
City Council. This improvement, therefore,
will be one of an important character, as per
manent as any paved highway can be, and
highly advantageous to the vast amount of
ravel overlt.
MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT.--A man named
Joel Wilson, sixty-nine. years of age, met
with an accident yesterday afternoon, by
which he lobt his life. He was employed OD a
building at Merchantville, about three miles
from Camden, and whilst engaged in readjust
ing some portions of a platform he missed his
footing :and fell, died almost instantly.
He resided near Tainany Fish Howie. Justice
Cox held a view of the body. His son was
working on the same building when the acci
`dent occurred. He took charge of the . body.
ACCIDENTALLY SHOT ITEEsELy.--A few days
ago, a colored woman near, Croat; Keys, in
Camden county, named White, while re
moving a gun from a closet, was accidentally
shot dead by the' premature discharge of the
weapon, the load taking effect in her side.
CIiIISFIED TO DEATIL—A little bOy, 8011 of
Mr. Dunn, residing near Bordentown, fell
between a water wheel and partition in his
father's grist mill, on Wednesday, and was in
stantly crushed to death. The lad was abJut

when, at the, breakfast table one 'morning my
sister reminded me of it, and proposed going
in a party with several friends.
The arrangements were soon made, as those
things usually are, without much reference to
myself; for, being a confirmed old bachelor,
I am habitually toted cuff somewhere during the
summer vacation by my only unmarried sister,
who—bless her little heart—generally deter t
mines routes and places, leaving me only one

"somehow, in that, horrid sweltering hot: weat

the mere sake of being roasted and dusted to
death--some other gentleman in the party had
the fun of looking after the baggage. I'm quite
sure I didn't, and after rubbing the cinders oat
of one s eyes, and ge2ting ensconced in trilera

so very abominable—only it was going a long
distance for one's money's worth.
"The fact is, Ned !" said my sister, after our
arrival "you are too lazy to enjoy anything
but a cigar and agame of Chess."
"If he enjoys Chess, then we'll give him a
benefit," interposed MisaSaunders. "The an
., nuaLtournament between the students.takes
place next week'; the one who wins the final
game is called the Chess King, and has the
privilege of naming and crowning a Queen of
Beauty—a farce over which we have immense
lots of fun, and sometimes considerable jeal
omy, lam sorry to say. But before the Chess
King can-officiate in the selection and corona
tion he must first meet and conquer any
stranger Chess Knight.errant who, being pre
sent, may choose to step forward and challenge
him. If he wins, a single game is sufficient;
if the battle goes against him, he still has the
right to demand another pestle, and if success
ful in that, is entitled to a third and deciding
!struggle ; being understood, , however, , that
- none of the Student/4 can enter the liats,aB they
lore supposed to have already'had their , chance
in' the totirnament; from which strangers,were
• debarred. Now, there's a chance for you to
get gloriously beaten, for the probable Chess
King this year is a renowned and formidable
warrior, in this section, at least; who, they
say, can give a Knight to all except the very
best
_players."
" (live a Knight," quoth 1 to myself, sotte voce:
" Gad! I've known lota of people who coukl
give a Knight—so effectually that they never
got it back again—at least, not through any
force of their own genius."
During the ensuing week each evening was
devoted to the progress of the tourney, which
took place in the large Hall of the trniversitYi

mediocrity, resulting,in a thinning out of the
majority among the combatants, and by Thurs
day, the fourth session, the number was re-,
dueed to four players, whose games, though
better than the preceding,. were still hardly
worth recording ; the finish leaving only the:
two winners, who by mutual consent deferred
their final contest, for another sitting. "
Friday evening found the galleries crowded.
with eager spectators who nervously watched
„what they had anticipated would be an extra
'Ordinary display of skill in skirmishing and
combination. hly sympathies were enlisted in
favor of the younger player, a sprightly genial
looking boy of nineteen, whose quiet gentle
manly bearing contrasted strongly with the en.;
samble of his opponent, a haughty black-bro wed
specimen of humanity, evidentlyseveral years
• the senior. Luck on the start seemed to favor
the latter--he drew the white men and tine
move, leading off with the " Giuoco Piano,"
as follows:

error.
White responded like an eagle's swoop, with
7. ICKt x 'Kt, leaving his Queen 'en prise;; but'
capturing a piece and threatening a mate in
~two moves, whereupon Black resigned, much,
to the disappointment of tho spectators, as
well as his OW 11 intense chragrin and dis , mst
at his rash oversight, though still he bore tits
defeat manfully.
With ill-concealed self-approliation the' vic

brief ceremony was over, gave forth•the re,

who' might choose to contest for the crown and
honor of naming the " Queen of Beauty" for

Then came my opportunity; rising from my
