Gentleman until he should return. , The young
man had not been Long in this place, when he missed
his watch; and going to the gukrd, and informing him
of the circumstance, requested. the dog might he al.
lowed .to return-with hint into die room-, as through
his means he could certainly recover his watch; •the
request was granted, and the young Gentleman re.
turning, intimated to his dOg that he had lost some-
thing.. The dog instantly set out in search of the
watch; and fastened on, a person who, on being
searched,- proved to be the rhicl as not less than six
witches were.found on him, anti amongst the rest,-
that of the Gentleman. On the watches being laid.
down, the dog picked out his master's watch, and
.bore it to him by the chain."
. . The following anecdote, so honotfrable to the
feelings and discernment of a British Admiral, we
can vouch for as a fan: A law dilys ago an informa.
non being laid against a waterman, as having been
at sea, the, informer contrived to send the un;us.
