taking his seat again on the Beech, having been for some
time labouring under a disease knotty] by the name of
angina pectoris. Sir T, PLUMER, although continuing

Mao D: es.—About a mouth ago, as Mr. Pepper, who re-
sides near the Bun-house, Chelsea, was walking out with a
favourite terrier, a large dog, which he at the time suspected
use mad, attacked the terrier, and bit it. Some of the neigh-
bours, however, insisting that the d'g was nut mad, Mr. Pepper
did not tie up his dag ; but on Wednesday last symptoms of
madness made their appearance in the terrier, who foamed at
the mouth, appeared to endure the greatest pain, bit at every
thing he came near; and we lament to state that Mr. Pepper,
his son, and two daughters, as well as a little girl residing at
the next door, were bitten by the animal, Instant WORDS
were used to prevent hydrophobia ensuing; the parts were cut
out & cauterised. & the family hate gone to take the benefit of
the sea-water. Many of the dogs iu the neighbourhood have
been bitten.—(Morainy paper.)

were walking near the Surrey Theatre, accompanied by a
small white terrier, a large mastiff sprang from beneath a cart
which was passing st the time, and seiring hold of the smatter

gushed forth in streams, and its death appeared almost inevita-
ble. The owner of the terrier, perceiviog the imminent danger
of his favourite dog, courageously, though most thoughtlessly.
seized hold of the mastiff's tail, and when in the act of biting
it, to cause him ,to leave go his hold, the enraged animal,
leaving the first object of his attack, fastened his teeth on the
cheek of the unfortanare gentleman, tore and lacrimal') his face
In amiost dreadful manner, and ills feared the loss of °worlds
eyek will be the result. The gentleman (a Mr. Williams, from
Yotk,)was conveyed to his hotel iis a coach, accompanied by
his friend and (the cause of the unfortunate occurrtnee).the
