LETTERS TO THE EDITOR,
Cruelty to Animals.
Si1r—lIs there a Society for the Preven- tion of Cruelty to AnimaJs in existence in this city? Ifso, the members thereof are culpably remiss in the fulfillment or rather the non-fulfillment of the important duties attaching to their office. If there is not there ought to be, or at least the more en- lightened and humane of our community should take such steps as may by them be deemed necessary to protect the horse and other animals who subserve our interests to so extensive a degree, from the brutality and fiendish cruelty of those who are their masters, the lords (?) offcreation. Life is too great and to precious a thing to be abused or destroyed at the whim or caprice of debased and weakly impetuous men, and is equally the gift of God whether it be en- shrined within the breast of a horse or a human being; and who amongst us will go so far as to deny—he possessing sufficient data to enable him so to do—that the birds and the beasts and the fishes which make the earth above and beneath the waters so busy and beautiful a scene may be sharers, to some extent, in the Resurrection, and thereafter live for ever in a sphere specially assigned to them somewhere in the regions of the ‘* New Heaven and the New Earth.” Bishop Butler of blessed memory tells us in his famous ‘‘ Analogy of Natural and Re- vealed Religion,” that there is no presump- tive evidence that the irrational animals are not eternal. I solemnly protest against the shocking and unblushing cruelty to horses which is so marked a feature of our city street life. tely stopped, and those entirely inhuman persons who are guilty thereof adequately and severely dealt with. Except in the city of Quebec, I have nowhere seen so little sympathy shown with the sorrows and trials of horses’ lives as in Charlottetown. The poor creatures are over-burdened and tiercely driven when evidently willing to do their best; and often when more fit io be resting on a bed of hay, or destroyed and placed beyond the reach of further ill- treatment, they are made to perform such journeys or draw such loads which, if at- tempted in England, would speedily bring punishment upon the guilty ones, Can we not, Sir, do something to protect the lives of our domestic animals who, like ourselves, are the handiwork of the Great Creator ?
If I am not making a too serious demand upon your valuable space, I think the peru- sal of the following quaint sermon upon the subject under consideration would interest as well as instruct many of your numerous readers
Frep. E. J. Lioyp, St, Peter's, Ch’town. June Ist, 1888.
It was a saying of Lord Ellesmere, High Chancellor of England under James I., that were he a preacher of the gospel this should be his first text: ‘“‘A righteous man is merciful to the life of his beast.” The duty of humanity to animals is certainly in har- mony with the doctrines and spirit of the Gospel, and the practice of mercy to the humblest beings might sometimes be a good test of Christian character. In whatever sense the Lord Chancellor intended his saying to be understood, it seems to have been adopted by one of the Court Chaplains as a text for a sermon on the duty of mercy to animals. It is the earliest printed dis- course on the subject, so far as is known. The title is, ‘*‘ Mercy to a Beast, a sermon preached at St. Marie’s Spittle in London, on Thursday in Easter Weeke, 1612, by John. Rawlinson, Doctor of Divinity, Chap- lain in Ordinary to King James I. Print- ed at Oxford,” The text is Proy. xii, 10: ‘*A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast,” or according to the Septuagint, ** A just man is merciful tu the life of his beast.”
The Doctor begins by stating what is comprehended in the term ‘‘regardeth the life.” It is not only ‘‘is merciful” which noteth his inward affection; but ‘he knoweth” or ‘‘regardeth”; ‘‘he careth for the life of his beast,” which latter argueth the manifestation of his affection and knowledge in outward action. He makes it some part of his care and labor to attend to the preservation and welfare of his beast.
There is, first, the intention of a right- eous man’s mercy. Then, secondly, the extension of it which appeareth in the object, in that it stretcheth itself so far as to his beast. For a beast is not (as we say in the schools) the adequate object, but one

particular object of a righteous man’s mercy. The meaning is that he regardeth not only the life of men, which is ever in the first place to be regarded as being a thing so pretious that of all other things it best deserves reguard, but his bowels are so enlarged with pity that he will not wrong, no, not evena brute beast. Nay, more, he will seize to doe it right, and the more right the less able it is to right itselfe ; and that he may doe it right indeed (as he must if he will be righteous) he is ever ready to afford it such necessary helps as may an way conduce to the maintenance of life.”
‘* Having briefly illightened,” says the doctor, ‘‘the letter of my text, I now come to the parts, which are principally two.
I. The one ; a general THEsIs. man is merciful.”
II. The other ; a particular Hypothesis. ‘* He is merciful to the life of his beast.”
In the Thesis there is
1. The subject, ‘‘ A Righteous Man.” —
2, And the affection of that subject *‘ is | merciful.”

And so dear must they be to all sorts of men _ that Solomon (Prov: iii), not cuntent to ave said ‘*Let not mercy and truth forsake thee” ; added farther, ** Bind them on thy neck or wear them as a chain of gold about thy neck end write them in the tables of thy heart.” He afterwards gives the reason (Prov:xx.20.) ** He that follow- eth after righteousness and mercy shall find life and glory.” And so from my first general part, which is the thesis, ‘‘a just man is merciful.” I now descend to the second, which is the hypothesis, that in pafticular he is merciful to the life of his beast, wherein we are to note first, how, then why he is to regard it. First then let us examine how a righteous man is merciful to the life of his beast. The

1. In feeding his beasts (Ezekiel xxxiv. 2.) ow if ye ask me what it is that will most fatten a horse? ILanswer it is the eye of his master ; for if they be wholly left to the care of servants they can tell how to be slack and negligent enough. 2. Jn sparing it. He will not exact more of his beast than the strength of it is well able to bear. 3. In patience. If then thou see thy horse trip or stumble, break not out in Balaam’s phrenetic passion to say as he did to his
ass when he would not go forward, ‘I
would kill thee.” But further remember that of the poet which yet he never spake
It is a rare thing in a beast to stumble twice at the same stone. Yet such beasts for the most part, are men that they are wont to make amends for a lapse with a relapse and to stumble more than a thousand times at the same stone, even the stony tables of Law. Yea a just man more than

his brother. 4. .A fourth branch ofa righteous man’s mercy to his beast is in
compassionating the needs and distresses of
his beasts. 5. In guiding and ruling them. 6. In protecting and defending them. The why is threefold. Every one of these three words, Animam, jumenti, swi—** The lite of his beast” carrying in it a several reason of his mercy to his beast. 1. Because it is life. 2. Because it is commodious and helpful to him, considering his service, use, and benefit from it. 3. On account of his lordship and dominion over it. ‘A _ right- eous man regardeth the life of his beast.”
Oatmeal.
(St. John Sun.)
The Charlottetown Examiner urges the establishment on the island of oatmeal mills of the most approved kind for the proper preparation of that very excellent food product. The suggestion 1s worthy of adoption. Where oats are produced in such very large quantities and of good quality there ought to be no difficulty in preparing a superior grade of meal at rates favorable to successful competition in the outside markets. Lack of easy winter communication would, in some degree, retard the development of outside trade, but that is a difficulty likely to be overcome either wholly or in part ere long. The home market is sufliciently ample to warrant the beginning of the enterprise, and there can be no doubt that the future will afford ‘means for its prosperous development-
It will be seen by a paragraph in anvther part of this paper, that the export of Prince Edward Island oats to the western provinces has been very large this year, and that it is still going on. Meanwhile we are taking our vatmeal from Ontario. The freight on oats from the farmer's market in Prince Edward Island to the Ontario mill is over nine cents per bushel The return freight on the meal would probably be two-thirds as much. We are carrying our oats a thousand miles to mill, paying our toll to the miller, and in addition about forty per cent. of the value of the crop for freight. It goes without saying that the manufacture of oatmeal would pay large dividends in the maritime provinces this year. The situation is, of course, abnormal, andno sane person would go into business unless he could make money under less favorable conditionz But it is hard to see why it would not pay the people of these provinces to make their own oatmeal under ordinary circumstances. —_—__-..-
A Mistaken Idea of Exercise.
Women seem to think that house-work, the daily toil that reaches from sun to sun, is sufficient; whereas it is as apart from exercise as labor is from rest. Yetto be at its best, our exercise must be so regular and
Y|systematic as to seem almost like toil.
Fora general rule, there is no form that does women so much goodas walking. The best period is in the forenoon, when natural forces are mounting up and carrying weakness upon theirtide. After the morn- ing bath and toilette, and time will permit the arrangement, an early breakfast of milk anda biscuit should be taken and a start made.—Dr. Wm. F. Hutchinson, in The American Magazine for June ——_Al A Tim
