THE IRISH lIOIILM CLTHOLIO

The Herald observes that the letter written by Earl
Mayo, in reply to the penitent and deprecatory one of
Doctors Leahy and Derry, correctly recapitulates the
different phases of the negotiation entered into between
the Irish Roman catholic hierarchy and the government,
touching the granting of • charter and endowment to the
pet institution of Cardinal Cullen. It was, however. •
stretch of politeness on the part of the no ble lord to n3fice
the letter of the two bishops. That the great bulk of the
Irish catholic& are disgusted with the increasing arrogance
a their bishops and their attempts to assume the direc-
tion of their temporal as well as their spiritual affairs is no
secret, and it behoves the British government, whether
Whig or Tory, to support them in their opposition to this
clerical tyranny.

THE CHI:SALE AGAINST DooB.—Since the new
law against dcgs has been in operation a curious SCAM)
has daily been witnessed at Islington, resulting from the
capture of lost, stray, and starving dogs in the metropolis
or "cloths. It al pears that the average captains of
canine wanderers, against whom the law is now &dig
exerted by a special force of constables, armed with tie
lasso, is daily between 7UO and 800. The majority of these
ale mongrels, perhaps about three-fourths, the remainih,r
king dcgs that have seen better days and those who have
next uunsittakubly been lost, the latter always command-
ing a gsed rice when sold. Since Sir Richard Mayne's
edict has Lieu Leueeltheseunimala aredallycouveyesl from

James's-rcad, Holloway, where a temporary home "for
lost and starving dogs" has been established, and

wl.irh they have the opportunity of doing at a price remu-
nerative for the expense and trouble which have boon in-
curred in taking care of them. Arrived at the " home,"
a "merciful and instantaneous method" of destroying
those a Leh are suffering from disease or are otherwise
injured is generally resorted to, the worst typo of dogs,
with a few exceptions, sharing the beet fate which can
befal thtm, and the remainder, after being tended and
well fed. are sold by auction by order of the Chief Coin-
missis ner of Police. One of these sales was held at Chel-
sea ce Saturday last, and =my of the dogs being animals

hardly be added that the thousands of doge weekly re-
ceived in this rest of Islington has not tended to improve
the qciet of the neighbourhood. The effect on the metro-
polis is, I °were:, marked.
