CRUELTY TO ANIMALS,
THE HONGKONG.
Hongkong, 19th September. Bix, fully endorse the sentimenta “ax- pressed in Hamane's” letter regarding the eruel treatment to which birds and animals are subjected in the Chinese shops here. I consider it ought to be the duty of a police. man to visit the shops once or twice daily to report the frequent esses of overcrowding and also to see that the animals have food and drink. The latter continually being kept in the cages should be made compulsory. This morning on entering one of the shops I found "ohow" puppy absolutely frantic at the sight of a coolis washing his feet outside his mage, scratching at the bars and whining for the water it saw but was unable to obtain. It required some persuasion, too, on my part to induce the owner to give the poor thing a drink. To a lover of animals it is most dis tressing to witness the miserable condition of the birds-kept in dirty cages nearly always overcrowded and often without food or drink! Surely something can be done to prevent it, and I shall expect to hear that some measures have been taken.Youra, etc.,
