DEbLINE AND PALL OF THE
CITY OF DOGSTOWN.
From TVlterweU's Yankee Noliotts.
Dogstown is a beautiful place in tho in
ferior of this state. There is plenty of land
'wound , so that nothing can hinder it from
growing in every direction, and thus be
'eomo a great city. Ill fact Dogs town has
already a one story church, part of a school
house, and an elegant pond.
, Dogtown is finely and advantageously
'situated. It stands on Eel River, a stream
"of water which runs into another sticfam, and
that into a third, which runs into Connecli
cut river, which running into Long; Island
Bound, finally reachesi n the Atlantic; who
does hot doe, therefore, that Dogtown way
become a great seaport! Tho territory in
"tho neighborhood of Dogtown is remarka-
Io for its fertility, bating that part of it
which is covered with rocks, tho salt mead
ow, tho pine woods, tho clay ponds and
swamps. It is past a doubt, therefore, that
the territory, it well cleared drained, peo
plea, ana cultivated, would become a per
fect garden, abounding with the richest pro
ductions of nature, and affording a mine 6f
wealth to tho couutry. As to the facilities
'of communication with the creat Atlantic
cities and commercial marts, they aro admi
rable. Dogstown has Boston on one side
"and N. York on the other. Montreal and
Quebec are in the north, while in the east
is tho'rieh and thriving state of Maine, with
Bangor and Owl's Head to boot. Kail
roads can be made to connect Dogtown with
all these places,, and they will certainly
form such a connection, when they are built.
t That the place will , be a great focus of
trade when this is done, nobody 1 think
.will deny. The neighborhood of Dogtown
has; all the advantages that can be desired in
a young country. There will be as many
towns within thirty miles of tho place, as
people choose to build. Tho population
'cannot fail to increase rapidly, for a man
can getiarried for 75 cents, town clerk's
fees included. The attraction for settlers
must therefore be considered very great
The Dogtowners are remarkably industri
ous, for they get a living, although constant
ly grumbling of hard times, lhcy are
moreover ingenius. for they minufacturo
tixc handles, wooden bowls, birch brooms,
and white oak cheese, and invent mouse
traps and washing machines. Last of all,
the inhabitants of Dogtown are literary and
intellectual, for they talk a great deal of the
march df improvement, and the minister
and the lawyer take the Penny Magazine
between them.
All these attractions togethcrform a com
bination truly wonderful. But the reader
-will be astonished when I inform him that
the inhabitants of this favored spot lived a
' great many years without the smallest sus
picion of what I have been describing. They
thought very little of themselves or of tho
town they lived in, and continued to vege
tate from year to year without imagining
Ihey were bolter on than other tolks. in
fact, the world micht have continued to this
day in utter ignorance that Dogtown was
such a wonderful place, but for an accident;
an accident I call it, for the Dogtowners
havine lived for many years without open
nn their eves, the fact they did open them
of sudden, on a certain day in the year of
crace 1834, must be considered purely ac
cidental. Some people are inclined to as
cribe it to the approach of the comet, which
had a powerful influence in opening peo
pie's eyes to say nothing of its effect in
drivintr them stark mna. uui mat is neiiu
er here nor there. The people of Doetow
onened theirevM and saw; that was enough
thev saw in an instant their immense ad
vantages, and were astonished that they
nr.mr had seen them before. 1 hey saw
their advantages, 1 say, and were determin
"td to turn them to account.
Straiehtway Doctown was all alive; ev
ery body was confident that Dogtown must
heeome a creat place : and as every body
told every body else so, there was no doubt
abotst the'matter. Every man went to buy
ing land who could pay for it, and those
could not pay, bought upon credit, sure of
aellinr it again at ten times the cost within
.ri...i !.. !
a year, isoming was iuim-u oi um uk iui
mense advantages ot the place, i no rich
"es of Doctown were indeed immense, and
how lhcy could have been overlooked so
long was a mystery that no one could un
derstand The land within the limits of the
town was computed at 720,000,000 square
feet, which is cheap enough in all consci-
flnm. would amount to 87,200,000. What
a sum! Half this land was covered will
trees at the rate of one tree lo every five feet
nuare. orouadrannle of twenty-fivo feet;
this jrave a computation of 10,400,000 trees
and as each tree on tho average contained
seventy-five cubic feet of timber, it lollowcd
that thdro was actually within tho town
780,000,000 feet of timber, worth on tho
lowest calculation five cents per toot, which
would amount to $39,000,000. I his add
fed to the value" of the land as above, made
a grand tdtal of forty-six millions two hun
dred thousand dollars!
THe mention of these1 surds almost drove
Hie good people of Dogtown distracted with
joj7 he'y could hardly believe their eyes
or ears ; but there it was in black and white ;
fibres could not lie. They were mnazed
to think of their own stupidity, and that of
'their ancestors' in lettihg forty-six millions
two hundred thousand dollars lie totally
idle ahd unproductive; but they wore deter
mfnid not to allow their wealth to bo nog.-
4tlsd uny longr; A grand scheme of
speculation and improvement starled,
and all rushed headlong into it. Every
man in Dogtown wis how rich, or what
was lite same thing, was sUro. of being so
beforo lohff. Iramcnso tracts were laid out
in. building lots, anil speculators (looked
troni all quarters; from Uatsvillo and VVea
zletownand Buzzardsborough and Gander
field and Grow Corner and Upper Bugbury
arid East I'umpington, and Black Swamp
and the Bottomless Hons. Such a busy
time as the Dogtowners had of it. Noth
ing was talked of but buying land! build
ing houses, laying out roads, streets, squares
avenues, railroads, canals, &c. fce. Pcoplo
left off ploughing and hoeing, because ag-
lculturo was too slow a method of making
monoy; tor who would think ot raising
turnips to sell at twenty cents a bushel,
when ho could make a hundred times the
profit by speculating in land ?
First of all, it was determined that Dog
town should bo a ciiy. The want of popu
lation was found to bo serious obstacle Jicro ;
tho constitution of tho state requires ten or
twelve thousand inhabitants for a city ; and
as Dogtown', including the suburbs of Pup-
lyville and Skunk s Misery, contained :
population of only six hundicd and thirty
one, it was thought there might, bo some
difficulty in getting a charier without antici
pating the returns of the next census. How
ever, a city it must bo, somo time or other;
in this all were agreed, and it might as well
have the name first as last; so they conclud
cd to call it a city. It is astonishing what
a spirit ot enterprise these prospects infused
into the people of Dogtown. I lie school
house door was paintud green, uncle Joe
Stibbons mended the top of the chimney,
and it was voted in town meeting to put
chase three wheelbarrows for the public
use; and all in consequence of these pro
jected improvements. Nay, so widely did
their views or business expand, that Amtna
dad Figgins, the grocer, determined up to
give relailinr, and declared he would'nt
split crackers nor cut candles any loneer.
such was the thriving condition of the
city of Dogtown when I left the place in
the autumn of that year. I continued to
hear of it through the medium of the Dog
town Daily Advertiser, a newspaper estab
lished there by an enterprising printer from
Connecticut at the first dawning of the com
mercial prosperity of the city. It appeared
to go ahead rapidly. The newspaper spoke
of the Exchange, the Town Hall, the Bank,
the new Tost Office, the Hail road. Canal,
fecr House lots were advertised in Wash
ington Square, Merchant's Row, State street
.Market btreet, dec. 1 hui was Dogtown
m all its glory
Last August I determined to make a visit
to this celebrated place, in order to feast my
eyes with tho splendor of a city that had
sprung up as it were bv enchantment
When 1 reached the foot of Blueberry Hill,
winch overlooks the whole place, I walked
eagerly to the top, in order to catch a view
at a tingle glance, of the city in all its mag
nificence. To my utter astonishment in
stead, of spires and domes, I saw nothintr
but Deacon otumpy s old mansion, with
five other ragged and dingy looking edjfi
ces, which blood exactly where I had a!
ways known them. 1 entered the citv
through State street, but discovered nothing
new except a small home without a chim
ney. Not a living thing was to be be seen in
Washington square but three geese who
wpre lazily picking a mouthful of grass
among the mud puddles. I enquired for
the bxehange, and found it in the use by
the Deacon as a cow pen. The new church
however, I was told had actually proceeded
as far as the raising of the timbers ; but all
was subsequently sold by auction to pay for
digging the cellar.
I had a check, on the Dogtown Bank for
t iree dollars, and wishing to dnw tho mo
ney, I was directed to No 10 Tremont
street. This turned out to be the identical
building formerly occupied by old Kit Cob
ble, the shoemaker. It was bank hours
but the bank was shut, and there was not
soul to be seen. Just as I was coinc away
I spied a tin horn by the door with a paper
over iij on vnicn was written "persona hav
ing business with the bank are requested to
blow the horn,' I put the horn to my lips
and blew a blast both long and loud. After
waiting about ten minutes I spied Isaac
i numper coming slowly dawn the road ; Ik
proved to be cashier of tho Doctown Bank
and after some difficulty I convinced him of
the salcty of cashing tho check.
Upon inquiring of Isaac what usa had
been made of the forty-six millions two htin
dred thousand dollars, he informed me that
most of it remained invested in notes
hand. Money was scarce, and was expect
cd to continue so until tho onion crop had
been got in. It was easy to pee that the
city had sadly declined from its meridian
splendor. In iact, Dogtown has suffered
complete downfall, for hardly any body
now speaks of it as a city. They havo as
much land as over, and so loner as it con
tinucd to be valued at their own price, they
wcro as rich as Jews ; but, unfortunately, it
foil in value, tho moment they expected! the
purcnasers to pay lor it. The Dogtowners
arc poor enough at present, but they are
not tl)0 first, and probably will not bo jhq
last people who tiavo ruined themselves. by
uujiuinga city on speculation.

WHAT IS A GENTLEMAN!
This is a question more easily askcil
than answered, but it is a very important
ono it seems in New York City at least,
nevertheless. A jury was called here, hut
few days aco, t6 settle a rrcntlcman's
Claims', and they decided him a gentleman
but if thoy had( left on record the grounds

'andects of Justinian. Mr. Cholson. m. c
insisted that Colonel Webb" was no gentle
man, -and Col Webb onco insisted that
Wood , the signer, was no gentleman, and
Mr. Cilley died, because ho would not own
that Col. Webb was a gentleman. Suro
then, it must be very important to decide
what makes the gentleman. Blackstone,
howevor has but little on that subject.
Chancellor Kent has not a word. Judge
Story has not oven discussed tho subject.
Kecordor Hiker has not flnoken. but never-
thclcss, it is of the first importance to know
wuai makes a gentleman.
A gentleman Wears :i clean shirt, n hrnml.

Mr. Olay then; is no gentleman, for ho is
very much of a sloven often, and therefore,
te can t be a gentleman. General Jackson
was no gentleman. Mr. Van Burcn, by the
same rule, when he first came from Europe,
was the first of gentlemen with a fine coach
livery boys, splendid horses, and all tho
paraphernalia of a gentleman. But the
pickpockets that ofteu thronir in crowds.
that make a push dt a dash to stuff a nocket
according to rule, are fino looking gentle
men, with ruffle shirt, kid gloves and gold
chains, all caparisoned as gentlemen. An

and thus as he is often more brilianlly
than his master, his master often havinir
