We do not wish it to be underst ood that we are a champ ion of dancing for we do not know how to dance , nor do we have any desire to learn . But fo r the benefit of those who believe in \rr m mn ^ i lt f lic rl lt fanta S ' -lC tOe. \ W C \ J l'f' u a *» publish the following taken from the Washington letter in the Christia n af Work: Some stir has lately been made in relig ious oire fe s here b y the denuncia tion, on a late Sabbath by one of our pastor s , of the in- auguration hall. He referred to ih * fact that Mr. H a rri -^ u. thoug h a Pre sbyterian elde r,, would be a participant in an a=sem Wage where dan cing was allowed. It seems to ns that this is hypercri tical , to use the mildest p hrase which can be .applie d to s uch s e rmoniz ing. The Catherin e on the eight of an inauguration is really a recep- tion srren for the p ur f ise of enabling the c rowd of visitors here to meet the new Pres - ident , probabl y not one in a hundred of the persons who atten d it eng s ce in dancing- Inde e d the crowd is usually so great that the c ancin g nas 10 oe i i e * er«Hi ua w *+ * ^ windin g up of the affair , the n a few of the young folk enjoy this pleasure. This recep _ r j oa. also, is under the management of me n •whose position in the church as well as in society would insure the utmost propriet y in its eond a ej. I have often been atten ded by ministers , as cell a? laymen , who take this opportuni ty to greet the new President , and if any one has reli g ion? scruples about jj oi n g to a p lace where sometimes p e ople dance , he had better avoid all hotels and tamed at the sig ht of a single &y ia their cup of milk. Is there not such a thing as a similar a&a«€£ in the moral make-tip of ~or u e reformers? ^ -Suffolk ' s War Boe s e ix Tows. —Es-Uisrrict Attorney Na- than 1). Petty , the efficient and wide-awake Chairman of the Re- publican County Committee , vis- ited Say\illf _ Tuesday night. He had been summoned to Patchogue ; i s couns e l in the Mulfor t l case , and todk the opportunity to come to Sayville on business. Last Thnrs - day the County Committee met at I ' lverhead ^ and after die transac- tion of business, enjoyed a dinner at the Long Island House. Mr . Pei t y was unanimously re-elected Chairman of the County Committee , a position lie is in every way quali- fied to fill—in fact it would be dif- fi cult to find a man who would be willing to do the amount of work accomp lished by Chairman Petty. He thoroug hl y understands the County: knows exactlv the needs of every district , and is in entire sympathy with Republican work- ers everywhere. He could not be spared at the helm , and his re-elec- tion was a wise and necessary act. especially at a time when good lod gmen t, wise oo u u a c t auH p iu mi /c measures are required to preserve unity in the ranks and effective work througnont tiie o ounry. j ^s - The Hempstead Sentinel has been enlarged and thereby greatly improved.

He is not -much seen, because he Is out on the road most of the t ime , and his duties are not of a kind that the reader could study on paper to much advantage ; hu t ho deserves mention because his place is a really important one. Railroad tracks cannot b e made , like a brid ge , five times as stiong as is necessary, and thus a large margin be allowed lor deterioration ; they must be constantly walcued ' to see that they do not fail even a little below their highest standard. This cure takin g oan he Intrusted only to one who has had long experience at the werk . In v iolent rainst orms the trackman must be on duty night and day and patrol the whole length of his division to see tliat gravel is not washed over the track or out from under it. Though roughl y dressed and sunburnt , he is an important personage in me eye o f the engineer of a fast-expr ess tra in , and if he be the least bit negligent , even to t he ex- tent of letting a few rails get a quarter of an inch lower than they ought to be , he hears a prompt appeal from the engine runner . The latter could not feel the confidence necessary to guide his 50-ton giant over the road at lightning speed with its precious human freight if lie had not a tn u ty trackman every few miles; and passengers who feel like expressing gratitude for a safe rafhoad Journey should never for get this unseen guardian . l>Ia:: .i fur I ' luuitil i : ; .

Bat these gentlemen forget 1 that the horse in his native plains Has ' always a short coat and that the winds and rains which cause him here ' to , throw oot an extra protecti on are not ( natural to him . Moreover , if the ani- , ' •inal Is left to follow his own impulses , even when turned out in this country , he will be all the better , for his long coat, for while it has the rrreafc advant- age of prot ecting him from the cold. ills not, we i wnn b we a i , ut s c a usu uo does not voluntarily gallop long and fast enoug h to produce that secretion. The natural protection is , therefore , undoubtedl y good for the horse when left in a state of nature , but when man steps in and requires the use of the horse for such work as will sweat him severely , he discovers that a lon g coat produces such great exhaustion , both during work and after it , that it entirely forbids the emp loyment of the horse for all fast work . I have myself found it impossible to extend a horse for any great distance on account of his long coat , which distresses him so much as to make him blow directl y, wnereas , on removing n wnn iue c up- pers , he could gallo p as li g htly as a race horse and be able to go as fast and as far agai n ' as before. 'When tlrs happens in the cou rse of the week fol- lowing t he previous failure , the only change made being in the coat , t here can be no mista k e made , and a constant repetition of the same result leaves no room for dispute as to the beneficial effects of removing tue n ^ u' - ^ ut Ha y , s the opponents of the p lan , \All this may be true , yet it is unsafe to expose the clipped horse after be has been warmed , or indeed at any time. \ E x- perience tells a very different tale , and informs us that so far from making the horse more liable to cold , cli pping renders him far less. So , s u ppo s e o n e of oursel ves to be exposed to a cold wind, should wp rather have on a thin H ™ « n - >f nr a t hiolr IUOI. n» , B flS S Iir fi rllv the former , and undoubted! ^ the wear- er of it w ould be less liable to cold than he who has the wet one on. bo with the horse.
