The extent of the esta hlishment required for stables and yards is very great, and they are obliged o pay very heavy rents in order 10 have them in central positions. A great many of tho snaller proprictors are men who huve themsolves been” dris ors of cabs. © eslablishments vary in_estout, some having but o1 cab, which the propaictor himsclf drives, and somo have s mauy as two hundred, the largest beiog the Motropolitan Gen- ertl Omnibus Company, whose receipts annually, from this haauch, together with their pumerous **busses,” bring not less tha £3,500,000 per annum. The great majority of those yards m'k:'n lis exoellent orer, their clcanliness, considering (ho Dbusingss, being extraordinary, but this is owing to the weekly Visits of @ sanitary inspector. About one fourth the number of caby are worked by night that are worked by day, in thoso Y¥ards where they have o night and day staff.” The day stafl Work fourteen hours, the night staff ten bours. ANFICTED CALS. A few yoars ago, when small.pox was vers prevalent in Lon dou, somme cases were clearly traced to the persons having rid den'in calw whieh had previousiy carried patients to the hos pials, A greatoutery was raised, and there aro now cabs usad wuly for this purpose, and no other. THE HORSES. “Tho horses worked in the oabs are generally of a very inferior character, the principal part of them being broken down aui- mals that have fignved in the racing and hunting stods of the “upper ten,” or the broken down hacks of tradesmen. No mat. fer what the animal may be so Jong s he can " do the pace, and it really fs wonderful to sce the pace some of these apparent Iy windless animals can do. We are afraid the story told by the “cabby” to Mr. Pickwick in the *Pickwick Papers was 1ot so exairgernted after all. for wome of the cabmen Who owh but one horse do work them a frightfully long time without giv- ing them rest. The horses with o few exceptions, are bought at vory small cost, and the object secms to be to make the most money out of them in the shortest possible time before they die. Groat® vigilaneo v exercised the officers for the prevention of eruclty to snimalé, and convictions take place daily. The pooror animals are put to the ‘four- wheelers” because 1n the ‘‘hamsom” the horse must bave somothing like legs to keep the vehicle 'T' whereas in the case of the ** four whealer " thers is no weight to hold up but that of the shafts, beside which the “four wheeler " is not expected to go 8o fust as the dashing “Hansom. Night after night horses that are suffering from sores on the back and other parts are worked in & most ernel manver, beoanse under cover of night they stand much less risk of detection than fn the day, It is & too common sight to sce some poor horse down thut per- haps bas struggled bard, but hae at last been obliged to drop, “Then are heard cries of “Sit ou 'is "ed, Bill,"" * Loose that ere strap,” and the invariable “e'll bo right in_a minit” and the poor creature, finding resistance useless, ot last recorers bu ciently to mrke another start and goes home to the stable, The reason urged for using suoh animals by the proprictors of cab horses is the utter impossibility of standing the cost of first-rate animals, for however ‘they may be two years of hard work over the pavemente of Lomdon knocks thes up, and owners of cabs suy that broken down horses last them nearly s long as good ones. The number of horses dying in London every week is nearly 500, and the horse slanghtering and “cat's meat " trades are quite exteusive. INSPECTION OF CADS, FARYS, &C. All cabs arc n.-rmm hy inspeetors appointed by the Com missioners, who refusc to pass any eab fhat is not eafe, clean aud comfortable.

The cabmen of London are oo of its special features, The great majority of them are Cockneys, but many are brokeu-down tradesmen from the country.
