which makes one friend so happy in another

little puppy, who was not suspected pre-
yiously OF being mad, but afterwards
exhibited SOME symptoms Of the distem'

and in the act oil driving him off he Sci
zed the negro by the Lett arm, and bit him
pretty severely. Being shaken off frem
that arm, he seized the other, which he

gree. The same puppy likewise attack

began to be excited, and the dog was
killed. The negro, who is just dead, and
the little boy (the son of respectable
family in this city, were Immediately
sent over to the mad dog stone, which
is deposited at Tappahannock $50 miles
off for use, and whose virtues have been
lately contested with considerable force,
in consequence ofthe fatal termination of
two cases in this city, each of which had
the assistance of another stone belonging
to one of our citizens. The stone was
