Prom Harper's Weekly. - The great horse show at Madison Square G arden'is a fashionable enter? tainment, and attracted this year, as usual, a large crowd. There are al? ways fine horses to be seen there, but the chief Impression of all such exhibi? tions is profound regret that 6uch noble animals are often if not generally so ignobly and ignorantly treated. Doubtless it was the daily spectacle of the abuse of horses which stimulated Henry Bergh to the great service which has justly made his name re? nowned. But the guilt of the abuse is not confined to draymen and teamsters. The ignorance and indifference of wealth and fashion to the treatment of !-:ors- s are quite as conspicious, and for obvi? ous reasons much more unpardonable. The horse, which is one of the most sensitive and delicate of animals, is greatly to be commiserated as he ap? pears in the fashionable drive of Cen? tral Park. He is treated as a part of the 6how of the parade, and he is at the mercy of the owner, who buys horses not because he likes them or knows any? thing about them, but because he mu?t have an equipage, and he abandons them to the care uf grooms and coach? men, whose sole aim ts to produce a more "swell" effect rhao their rivals. For a ??stylish" effect the horse is robbed of his natural ornament and de fenoe, and is checked and trussed aud tortured by a harness which encumber* his natural action and forces bim into an artificial "gait." Human knowl? edge and skill directed to an auxiliary animal like the horse should aim to de? velop his natural aptitudes, lie should be treated as a humane and skilful gardener treats a tree in our modern landscape-gardening, not as a heu wa> maltreated by the false and morbid t**te of two centuries ago. Such remarks do not apply to the lovers of horses who c?.e for them with sympathy and intelligence, who com? prehend their practical helplessness aud acknowledge their faithful service. Such lobers permit in their etables no ?.fashion?" invented by ignorant and inhuman grooms to produce "stylish action" to impress simular ignorance and folly In such #a show as that which ha? just closed iu the Madison Square Garden it is by DO means the "showiest7' horses which please the true lover. It is the animal whose ap? pearance is not deterinioed by a traosi tory "fad** of style, bat which reveals the affection, the knowledge, and the thoaghtful care of the owner. The worst result of such an exhibition is its tendency to com?rm ignorance and carelessness in the abuse of horses in order to give them what the same igno? rance and carelessness call style. The Ocean's Floor. The whole ocean is now mapped out for us. The report of the exposition sent out from London for the purpose of ocean surveys has recently been pub? lished. Nearly four years were given to the examination of the currents and the floors of the four great oceans. The Atlantic, weare told, if draioed, would be a vast plain with a mountain range in the middle running parallel with our coast. Another range crosses j it from Newfoundland to Ireland, on the top of which lies the submarine cable. The ocean is thus divided into three great basins, DO longer "unfath? omed depths.'7 The tops of these sea mountains are two miles below the sail? ing ship, and the basics, according to Recias, almost five miles. These mountains are whitened for thousands of miles by a tiny cream species of shell, lying as thickly on their sides as frost crystals on a snowbank. Tue deepest parts are red io color, heaped with vol canic manses. Through the black, mo? tionless waters of these abysses move gigantic, abDormal creatures oever seen io upper curreots. There is ao old legend coming down to as from the first ages of the world on which these seienti?c deep-sea souodiogs oast a curious light Plato and Solon record the tradition, ancient then, of a country in the western seas where flour? ished the first civilization of mankind, which, by volcanic action, was sab merged and lost. The same story is told by the Centrai Americans, who still celebrate in the fast of Izcall the frightful catacysm which destroyed a continent loaded with populous cities. Dr. Bourbourg and other eminent arch? aeologists assert that this lost continent extended from the coast of Africa to Dear the West Indians. The shape of a plateau discovered io surveying the ocean's floor corresponds with this the? ory exactly. We may yet find the lost Atlaotis-?Sit.
