of three guineas To cne, that the dog
would Kill the monkey in six minutes
The owner of the dog agreed to permit
The monkey to use n srick about a foot

to witness the fight, and bets ran eight,
nine aud len TO one IN favor of The dog,
which could hardly be heldin.
The owner Of the monkey taking from
his pocket thick round rule about foot
long, threw it into the hand Of the mon
key saying, Now look sharp-mind thar
dog
Then here goes for your mon key,'
cried the butcher, letting the dog loose,
which flew with n tiger-Iike fierceness at
him. The monkey will, astonishing az
ility sprang at least yard high, and fall
ing on the dog. laid fast hold Of the back
of his neck with his teeth, ssiziug one ear
with his left paw, so as to prevent his tur-
ming to bite. In this unexpected situa-
ton, Jack fell to work with his rule upon
the head ofthe dog, which ho beat so for
chilly and rapidly, that the creature cried
out most eloquenily. In u short time
the dog was carried off in nearly n
lItsless state with his skull fractured.-

| loved thee once; III love no more;
Thine be the grief. as is the blame;
Thou art not what thou vast before;
What reason should be tho same.
ne who can love, uulOved again,
Hath better store of love than brain.
God send me love my debts to pay,
While unthrfts fool their love away.
Nothing could have my lovo o'erthrown,
II thou hadst still continued mine.
Yea, If thou hadst remained thine own.
might perchance, havo yet been thino.
But thou thy freedom ddst reeal,
That it, thou might elsewhere enthrall:
And then, how could but disdain
A captives's captive to remain.
When new desires had conquered thee,
And changed the object of thy will,
1t has been htaargy, in me
No, consiaocy, to love thee still.
Yea, had it been sin, to 60
And prostitute affection 90;
Since we are taught, no prayers to say
10 such az must to others pray.
