'DOCTORED' AMERICAN HORSES.
The reoeut formation of a company
in New Yuri, for the purpose of export,
tag; American horses to England is a
platter of iutereet to every lover of
horseflesh, for it implies at least that
they will send, over valuable animals,
and not the 'tnalle•up' creatures w]]]elt
are too often foisted on a oonfiding pub.
lie by unscrupulous dealers. It is a
fent well known in New York that sev-
eral persons deal in what is known in
the parlance of the street as 'knackers,'
that is, broken down horses ; and that
they doctor those up that they ,sell in
Euglaud fear five or six times their value,
the rogues presamiug that the British
people would not think it worth the
trouble of dealers to export equine rub-
bish. These men buy hal' brolceu down
horses that may be sixteen years of age
at bnblio enles, and by filing the teeth
and feeding them highly for a short
time, melee then] look half their real
age. On their arrival here ttiey are
dosed with aseuie,to give them a glossy
coat, plumpness, and high spirits, to
cense them t) foam at the month, and
when they etre iu their ruest mettlesome
condition they are sold at a high figure
to regular horse dealers, or tu gentle-
men. If the arsenic is not given regu-
largly, and in oonstautly iucreasiug
doses,by the purebasers,the poor brutes
wane rapidly,or suddenly collapse. .An
acquaiutaltet of mine was congr'atulat-
iug himself on having bought an excel•
lent pair of American carriage 11orees
for x120, and a lady's palfrey for R30,
but before Ise had them three months
he learned, to his sorrow, that they
were veritable 'knackers,' doctored up
for the British market, and he has now
a strong prejudice againt what he call,
'Yankee frande.' Such a mistake could
be avoided if he knew the value of horses
in New York, Boston, Philadelphia, f'rr
he would then be able to argue log#icel-
ly that it world be impossible to sell
good animals here at less valga than
they bring there, and that, Be a nater

is wonderful if the agitator's invective
scams justifiable and his reasoning well

surprised if the impressible mechanic is

A GOOD WORD FOR WOMEN.
John Ledyard, in hies Siberian jour.
nal, pays the following tribute to the
women of all nations: "1 have obeerv-
edamong all nations that women wher•
ever they may be found are the sante
kind, oval, obliging, humane, and ten-
der beings ; that they are inclined to
be gay and cheerful, timorous sod tnod•
est. They do not hesitate, like men,
to perform a hospitable or generous ac-
tion ; nut haughty, nor supercili us,
but full of courtesy,end fond of society,
'industrious, @OOI10lThletil, ingenious ;
snore liable in general to err than man,
but in general more virtuous, and per-
forwitig more good actions than can he.
I never address myself in the languwe,e
of deuencv and frietlsliip to a woman,
whether civilized or savage, without
reeeiviug a decent or frieudly answer.
With man it has often been other wise,
r
In wnudetlug, over buttes arisen+ of lu-
buspitable Danmark, through hottest
Sweden, frozen Lapland, rude and ebur.
lish Finland, unprincipled Russia, and
the wide spread regions of wandering
Tartary, woman has ever been friendly
to mo, and, to add to this virtue, these
actions have been performed its so free
and so kindly a manor th t 1 drank the
draught and ate the coarse rn irsel with
a double relish."
THE LURID AND THE ARISTO-
CRA'TIO NOVEL.
The uneducated end thoughtless,
who have no knowledge nor discrimin-
ation of taste, ito doubt feel unmitiga-
ted admiration, foolish lads and girls
fancy they have a reflection of high so-
ciety in the most ludicrously distorted
pictures and caricatures ; virture and
viae are habitully eoefuuuded ; and
notions that might live been borrowed
fromthemelodrart.as of the trauspontine
theatres are developed and even traves-
tied, iu thoes sensational novels. Stor-
ies written for the gratification of the
ordinary subscribers of Mr Mdwie are
pa -sed on in due course, to be devour-
ed by the milline'rs apprentices and law -
yers' clerks. There seems no reason
why the young woman who adtntres
her beuute 4.a (Liable daily in the looking -
glass should not make the acquaintance
of one of the noblemen or millionaires,
who can raise her to the position her
charms would adorn. Whether she

ward or no is a questiou she may post-
po le for the present : at all events, she
lira snflieient self-respect to feel sure
that she will prove equal to that or any
other emergency ; while the clerk who
has besot plums ieg for sovereigns at
King -bury or Hatupton, finds a store
of ready precedents at his fingers' ends
for forging °heelues or embezztiug cash.
Felonies of the kind, when extenuated
by circumstances are amiable weak-
nesses of the meet resnectubte men ;
and if he hila lingering scruples as to
their strict propriety, he is taught that
he need only m lire restitution by was
of thanks offerin, when his grand coup
has answered its purpose. These sto-
ries are circulated or imitated in the
columns of the "penny-dreadfuls," and
just notions they must give of the rich
and wet] -born to the iutelligelit artisan
relaxing from his labor. The de►rlage,-

Taking for a text the novel Miss Thomp-
kins has composed in the bask parlor
of the semi-detached villa at Brixton.
they exclaim in the triumph of irresis-
tible logic : You maintain that the in-
famous aristocracy may have goad about
it after all. Only read this hero novel.
It is evidently written by one of their
'ornaments'—by a woman born in the
purple, as they pall it, who drops into
the Queen's palaee,aud dines every day
with Dukes and Duchesses. And just
hear what she has got to say about
them ! Would you marry a wife who
had been broneht up like Lady Esmer-
alda there ? Or would you care to give
year hand, as an honest man, to that
ewindier and dabauchee, the Earl of
Diddlehatln ? You see that they are
not only effete, but rotten to the Dore ;
they fatten en the blood of the people.
Depend upon it, the only things to agi-
tate for are abolition and ooriflscation

BY-LAW NO. 2
1879.
BY-LAW to open the original road allow-
ance between lots One in the :lux,S«Lde
and Lake Road East Concessions in the
Township of Stephen.
WHEREAS, in the year one thousand eight
hundred and sixty eight the Munieipal Corpor-
ation of the Township ei Stephen caused to
be opened a deviation road through certain
lands of one William Follis, namely :—Lot nuns -
ber one in toe Aux Sable concession of the said
Township, itninediately adioiniug upon that
part er portion of the said original road allow-
ance now proposed to be opened, and herein-
after particularly deseribed; said deviation hav
iug then been considered necessary because of
the difficult) and expense of constructing a safes
roadwayover;the said original road allowance.
And whereas the condition autl agreement
upon which the said corporation acquired tb,s
land for the raid deviation road from the sae 1
William Follis, was that the said. original roam
allowance should cease aud determine to be it
public road allowance, and the said, the corpor-
ation aforesaid, shuuld convey the same to hila,.
1r' `
and pay ]him in addition. the sum of thirty dol-
lars in lieu of his said laud taken for said devi-
ation road.
And whereas the said the corporation afore-
said, did in pursuance of said agreement, pay
said sum of thirty dollars, and convey the said
original road allowance to the said William
Follis, who afterwards sub -divided and con-
veyed the same into several parcels, to various
people, but no by-law was ever passed closing
said original road allowance, and the 81000, al-
though occupied by the said William Follis and
his grantees as private property was never le-
gally closed,
And whereas, owing to the increased travel'
in the neighborhood of said lands, it is deemed
desirable and necessary by the Municipal Coun-
cil of the said Township of Stephen, to take
and open said original road allowance as a
public road in said township, retaining also
said deviation road, preliminary to which 41
proper notices have been given pursuant to thA
Statutes in that behalf, and all persons inter-
ested in opposing t]iis by-law have been duly
heard by the said Council.
Tic it therefore enacted and it is hereby en-
tiaohloessupvli.d with acted by the Municipal Council of the Township
'1'wojPiLmans, of Stephen, in the County of Huron, that front
and immediately after the passing of this by-
law, that that portion of the original road allow -
as • : between lots numbers one in the Aux Sa
ble coucessing, and one in the Lake Road East
concession, in the said Township of Stepliea,
more particularly described as follows
commencing at the north westerly angle of

links; thence north twenty degrees, twenty-
four minutes; west one chain, twenty links to
lake shore road; thence north thirty ttvo de-
grees ; east twenty-five links to place of begin-
ning, shall be and the same is hereby declared
to bo an open .public road or highway within
the said Township for general public use.
