The NeW- Yorh American is a fine looking
fellow-keeps in good soeiety-b but a little TOO
fierce, and frequently gets the wrong pig by
the ear.
The Nsw- York Statesman, is a well bred
dog, intelligent and active and watchful ofthe
interest Of De Witt Clinton. his master; not
uarrelsome nor disposed to run to every one's
whistle.
The Ne,p- York Inquirer, is a sagacious
cur, but quite the reverse Of the. Statesman
he pricks up his ears at every paddy's whistle
He banks vocifsrously sometimes at friends
and foes, but il is said he knows which side
his bread is bIttered, and although he contin-
ually shows his teeth il is said he never bites
he only pretends to have the hydrophobia.
The NeW- York .adrertiser, differs in all
respects from the Inquirer, more useful and
less in favor with the mere man Of pleasure.
The Ulster Republican is a young dog Of
much promise and courage-He is quite a
match for the whole kennel Of little opposition
ours let loose upon him in his vicinity.
The Albany Argus is an old respectable
sentinel of the republican party. But it is to
be regretted that symptoms Of hydrophobia
have long since been discovered, as he is evil
IDENTIFY on the wrong track. 1t is TO be hoped
that Jackson Scull Cap or scalping will elect
a cure before next dog days. II is amusing 10
see how much the little ours in the neighbour
hood stand in fear of this dog. They even i'm
Itate his bark. and il he growls they wag their
tail and crouch 10 " manifest their weakness"
The Signs Of the Times, is a mere puppy.
The Patriot, of Boston is an old watch of
the public veal, and has grown gray in the
service he has never been accused of beng
unfaithful to his master.
The Traveller, is a very useful dog OF the
kind, we believe he is Of the pointer breed,
not to point out game, but to point the way to
the way-faring man.
The Ye0man's Gazette at Concord, aud the
Spy and Yeoman, at Worcester, The SEMI
mel, Of Athol, and The Sentinel, Of Belchor-
town Republican, at Springfield, and
the Gazette and Post at Northampton, are all.
excellent guardians Of their masters interests,
Their merits might be particularised, but
they are well known to the public.
or the SAM kind and character are those of
Connecticut, the Mirror and Mercurp, Of
Hartford, the Sentinel and, Gazette. Of Mid
~dletown; the Register and Chro, icle, of New
Haven, are more than sufii cient to keep in
check two such Iin,es-serving ours as yelp in
Hartford and New-Havon.
The Vermont dogs too are no s~paniols, they
are used to hunting wolves, and it matters lot
if they come in sleeps clothing, they are sure
10 get found out. The aurora at vergennes,
the STANDARD, at Middlebury, and the Heyaid.
at Rutland, have tracked ore apostate ex-Gov-
ernor at least, to his hiding place.
In Berkshire County, lie County Rspubi-
can ard american .adpocate, are young but
already full grown %yelpers, and fello US of good
scent. The Berkshire american, too. an cx-
ceedingly excentrick dog noble, generous,
swapping at nothing excepting vice and folly
in great favor with all lovers Of fun. The Ar
gus, too with his many eyes, possesses a char
acter which we leave for the cwner Of some
puppy to give, or some shcep-killing old dog
OF our acquaintance in his second puppy.hood.
The Boston Statesman, is a s~narling, sna D.
ping, illnatured cur, and always barking when
nothing is near. He is exceeding quarrelsome
and froths at his mouth-friends and foes
agree that he is mad, and we are sorry to see
him and the Hampden Register, a young dog
Of some promise, proving about together
The Register ought to remember that poor
Tray was badly treated only for being found
in bad company. The Pihsfeid Sun, too, a
little old stiff backed fellow, formerly a faith
full sentinel-now growing and sna piping at
former friends sometimes preserving sullen
silence - sleepy and dosing unles when the
smell of some Jackson supper has whetted his
appetite, when he bristles mp, scratches the
ground with his hind feet to make n rus,ling
among the leaves, and trots off at his usual
little dogs trot-all three ofthesc dogs give
symptoms Of hydrophobia, and it is said by the
wool growers that ~they.will kill sheep.
The Literary Cadet, Of Providence, is one
Of the most valuable public s~entinels in this
country, fearless and undaunted, he is a terror
to the whole whining pack that follow the
heels Of opposition He distinguishes between
friends and foes, and above all things hates
neuters.
II we were as modest as our friend Parmlee,
Of the Middlesex Gazette, who has Of late taxi
en- US to task for an alIedged want Of that prec-
Ious and rare articlc, VIC might have been in
duced TO omit publishing that part Of the arti-
Gle, which relates to our humble selves.
Indeed. if the gentleman had not lcctured
us, we should have omitted it, but as we are
not, to use a very classical expression, "to be
frightened by 4 dead snake" we incorporate it
with our columns, and commend il TO the es-
pecial perusal Of that good naturcd gentleman,
who we beg leave to assure has our best wish
es for his success and prosperity. We bid the
gentleman adieu, and whilst wo think Of it we
will again ask I'm, what he asks for his wooden
clocks and white oak nu,mcgs.
