UNION-HALL

Jahn Crater was brought before L. B. Aunt, Esq. charged with
assaulting, and setting a large mastiff dog at James Purcell, which
bit him severely in both kgs, and one of his bands.
A witness proved the assault, and also the desperate attack made
ea the complainant by the dog, which was described at the time to
have every appearance of being mad.
The Magistrate called on the defendant to procure bail for as-
saulting the complainant, and also for preventing the dog from going
at large unmuzzled.
A poor man came into the office, and requested that the Magis-
trate would grant him a summons against a Gentleman whose dog
had bitten him a few days ago, as he was proceeding along Oakley-
street. Ever since the circumstance occurred, he said, he had never
closed his eyes, such was the terror excited in his mind by the
dreadful apprehension of an attack of the hydrophobia. A summons
was issued for the attendance of the owner of the animal.
Shortly after the above applicants withdrew, another man came
running into the office breathkys, and applied for a warrant against
a man who had just killed his dog.
The Magistrates inquired whether the dog had bitten the man
for whom be wanted the warrant ? The reply was, that the dog
bad merely snapped at the person, whu instantly knocked the poor
animal's brains out.

The Magistrates, upon ascertaining that the dog was suffered to go
about the streets tunusaled, refused to grant any order for the at-
tendance of the person, who bad, they said, •ery properly taken the
most speedy method of ridding the streets of a dangerous animal.

Tan PIIRPKTVAL MOTION.—The Charleston Courier
says--" We yesterday saw a hundred dollar bank bin, of one of
our Qty Banks, upon the back of which were inscribed the lines
which follow. We presume it had been presented as an offering at
the shrine of Grecian liberty :
Go from my wining purse ! nor doze in peace,
Whilst thraldom is, or tyrants prowl on Greece;
Nor tarry till the world's from bondage free,
And equal rights deck every land and sea;
Then tell the nee who ask thy donor's goal,
Thou wen emitted from a freeman's soul!
This reminds us of a poetical wish of an andeit author, is
rr-
kuoa to the success of his work :
May this book continue in motion,
And its leaves every day be *innards
Tin an ant to the dregs drinks the ocean,
And a tortoiat crawl, ova the'world,",
