"OUS, DOGS'
BY - DR. So RR' BROWN.
Peter.
Peter died young—very quick and soon
that bright thing'came to confusion. Ho
died of excess of life; ,his vivacity slew him.
'Plucky and silent under punishment, or
any pain from , without, pain from within,
in his own precious; brisk, enjoying body,
was an insufferable offence, affront and
"mystery—an astonishment not to be borne
'—ne disdained to live under such condi
tions;
One day he catno in howling with pain.
There was no injury: no visible onnso 7 brit
he was wildly ill, and in his eyes the end of
all things had come. He put so many
; questions to us at each panic—what is this?
--what the —'can it be?—did you ever?—
as each paroxysm doubled him Up, he
gave a sharp cry, more of rage and utter
exasperation than of sufferingf he got Up to ,
run sway from it—why shon Id he die? Why
•should he be shut up in, darkness and Oh
-stritetion at that hour of his opening morn
his sweet hou'r of prune? Aud so raging,
'and 'utterly put out, the honest-.dear little
fellow went off in an ecstasy of fury_ et
death,rat its absurdity in his case. •
':We never could explain his death ; A was
not' poison or injury;' lei actually expired
- W.ben: careering . round _,the green at ~full
apeed, as if to outrun his eneuty,, or ihake
lund off. We have not yet got over his loss,
.and all the :possibilities that lie W11.1'431, in
his grave, in the Park, beneath a Young
,ebeetnut-tree where the ruddy-checked, fat,
'and cordial 'coachmen, who of obi, in, the
`grand old Reform days, used to driveh's
master, Mr.' Speaker *Abercromby, floWn t.
:"the House" with much stateliness and
'bouquet, and I dug it for him,-that park
;in which'Peter had often disported himself,
cocl adr
fluttering the and, hens, and putting
to flight , the s) '
on of Gleneagles
He -too is 'dead,--the who, never , havini
been born, we had hoped never would: die;
not that he did—like REtla--"exactly" die;
he wasralidn.- He was fourteen, and getting
deaf and blind, and a big bully ofa retriever
fell on him one Sunday morning when the
bells were ringing. Dick, •wno always
fought at any odds, gave battle ; a Sabha
tartan Cab turned the corner, the big, dog
ted, and Dick was run over,—there in his
own street, as all his many friends were
-going to church. - His back was broken,
and he died on Monday night with us all
about him; dear for his own sake, dearer
for another's, whose name—Sinb uft Non
—lanow more than ever true, now that she
Is gone.
I was greatly pleased when Dr. Cotting,
of Roxbury, came in yesterday and intro
duced himself to me by asking, "Where is
Dick ?" To think of our Dick being known
In Massachusetts
If Peter was the incarnation of vivacity,
Bob was that of energy. He should have
been called Thalaba the Destroyer. He re
joiced in demolition—pot from ill-temper,
but from the sheer delight of energizing.
When I first knew him he was at Blink
bony toll. The Lohman and his wife were
old and the house lonely, and Bob was too
terrific for any burglar. He was as tall and
heavy as a foxhound, but in every other
respect a pure old-fashioned, wiry, short
haired Scotch terrier—red as Rob Roy's
beard—having indeed ether qualities of
Rob's than his hair,—cholerio, unscrupu
lous, affectionate, staunch—not in the least
magnanimous—as ready to worry a little
dog as a big one. Fighting was his "chief
end," and he omitted no opportunity of ac
complishing his end. Rab liked fightingfor
its own sake, too, but scorned to light any
thing under his own weight; indeed, was
long-suffering to public meanness with
quarrelsome dogs. Bob had no such
weakness.
After much difficulty and change of mas
tea, I bought him, I am ashamed to say, for
five pounds, and brought him home. He
had been chained for months, was in high
health and spirits, and the surplus power
and activity of this great creature, as he
dragged me and my son along the road,
giving battle to every dog he met, was some
thing appalling.
I very coon found I could not keep him.
He worried the pet doge all around, and got
me into much trouble. So I gave him as
night-watchman to a goldsmith in Princess
street. This Wfirk he did famously. I once
in passing at midnight stopped at the shop
and peered in at the little slip of glass, and
by the gaslight I saw where he lay. I made
a noise, and out came he with a roar and a
bang as of a sledge-hammer. I then called
his name, and in an instant all was still ex
cept a quick tapping within that intimated
the wagging of the tail. He is still there—
has settled down into a reputable, pacific
citizen—a good deal owing, perhaps, to the
disappearance in battle of sundry of his best
teeth. As he lies in the sun before the shop
door he looks somehow like the old Fighting
Temeraire.
I never saw a dog of the same breed ; he
is a sort of rough cab of a dog—a huge quan
tity of terrier in one skin; for he has all the
fun and briskness and failings and ways of
a small dog, begging and hopping as only
it does. Once his master took him to North
Berwick. His first day he spent in career
ing about the sands and rocks and in the
sea, for he is a noble swimmer. His next
he devoted to worrying all the dogs of the
town, beginning, for convenience, with the
biggest.
This aroused the citizens, and their fury
was brought to a focus on the third day by
its being reported alternatively that he had
torn a child's ear off, or torn and actually
eaten it. Up rose the town as one man, and
the women each as two, and, headed by
Matthew Cathie, the one-eyed and excellent
shoemaker, 'with a tall, raw divinity stu
dent, knock-kneed and six feet two, who
was his lodger, and was of course called
young Dominie Sampson. They bore down
upon Bob and his master, who were walk
ing calmly on the shore.
Bob was for making a stand, after the
,manner of Coriolanus, and banishing by
instant assault the "common cry of curs ;
but his master saw sundry guns and pistols,
not:to speak of an old harpoon, and took to
his heels as the only way of getting. Bob to
take to his. Atari/ex, with much nol4,made
for the police station, and, with the assist
ance of the constables, and half a' crown.
got Thalaba locked . up for the night, safe
and sulky.
Next morning, Sunday, when Cathie and
his huge student lay uneasily asleep,dream
ing of vengeance, and the early ,dawn was
beautiful upon the Bass, with its snowy
clouds of sea-birds "brooding on the
charmed wave," Bob was hurried np to the
station, locked into a horse-box—him never
shall that ancient Burgh forget or see.
I have a notion that dogs have humor,and
are perceptive of a joke. In 'the north a
shepherd,having sold his sheep at a market,
was asked by the buyer to lend him his dog
to take them home. "By a' manner o'
means tak Birkie, and when ye'r dune
him just play so" (making a movement
with his arm),"and he'll be hame in a Pty.' ,
Birkie was so clever and useful and gay that
the borrower coveted him; and on. getting
to his farm shut him up, intending to keep'
him. Birkie esCaped during the night, and
took the entire hires! (flock) back to his own
master ! Fancy him trotting across the moor
with them, they as willing as he.
'X.trn woolen mill of R. Gardner ct Co.,
at - Janesville, Michigan, was entirely de
stroyed by fire on Thursday.: The loss is
$OO,OOO, and is insured for $25,900 in the.
Hartfonl, Phceni*. and Metropolitan Com
panies. The factory will be rebuilt at once.
