A FAT ii F u l. DOG

Some years since, a family residing in one oil
the Southern states possessed u Newfoundland
dog which conceived strong friendship for the
little daughter Of its owner. This child he
used to escort regularly to school, carrying her
satchel in his mouth, and was generally at the
door, to trot along by her side homeward
One day, the glrl, having strayed away with
out the knowledge of her parents, sauntored
along TO the water, and was amusing herself
by walking upon the string pieces of pier
The dog, as usual, was her only attendant, and
seemed to watch her pranks with much atten-
ton, and considerable uneasiness. Frequently
warned by various persons upon the wharf, to
keep farther from the edge, she nevertheless,
with juvenile waywardness, continued her dan
gerous paslime, and until finally she missed
her footing, she fell into the water. Instantly
the neighborhood was in all uproar, some ran
TO loosen boat, others flung boards into the
stream, and sailor present stripped off his
jacket and shoes for plunge alter the little
cast away.
But Towser fully eomprehended the matter
at glance, and before it was fairly known that
she was IN peril, was by the side Of his young
mistress, had seized her by her floating dress
and was padding back with his precious bur
den to the wharf The generous Jack tar had
now only to leap into ships yawl hard by, and
pull both of the dripping creatures into it, and
deposite them upon the dock in safety.
Towser, of course, became more than ever
favorite with the family, and held a very en-
viable rank among Others of his species. As
his mistress increased in strength and stature
she was never allowed to forget the debt of
gratitude due her canine companion, although
she had outgrown the necessity of calling on
c. g., Al. L
grew fat upon his laurels, like some old soldier,
whose youthful privations and evidences of
valor have procured him pension for the re-
mainder of his pilgrimage
Some five years after this occurrence, the ia
mily had resolved upon changing their place of
residence for the city of st. Augustine. The
morning of their departure arrived; the schoon-
err which was to convey them to their new
home was casting off from the pier, the very
one which had been the scene of Towser's ex-
plot, but he was nowhere to be found. They
had whistled and called but no dog appeared;
the captain became FESTIVE, swore he would
wait no longer, gave the order, and the craft
swept along the waters with spanking breeze,
and was soon quarter Of u mile from the
shore.
The girl and her father was standing at the
stern Of the vessel, looking back upon the city
which they had probably left forever, when sud
denly Towser was seen running down to the
edge Of the wharf with something IN his mouth,

The SUICIDE OF Mr.. BusKIRK. d Blocher
Esq of Cumberland, in a letter published in
the Alleganian, in relation to the suicide Of
Mr.. Buskirk says
In order to prevent Misrepresentation, in re-
laton to the sad event which transpircd on
Monday evening last, | have procured from
Capt. Semmes, copy Of the letter left by Col
Buskirk, to his address Col Buskirk was in
my office during the whole afternoon of Mon
day, with the exception of the time he was alb
sent to write the following letter. His conduct
was calm--his reason sound--andshs general
demeanor that Of man in full possession of all
ms faculties. ! separated from him at the door
Of the court hall only about three minutes be-
fore his death. He had his gun in his hand.
and supposed he was about to leave for home.
In conversing with him of the qualities of his
gun, he informed me 1t had snapped for him at
beautiful spring near town, that day, but that
he had fixed it to he certain | presume from
this fact that that was the attempt referred to
in his note.

A DESTRUCTIVE FIRE IN New YoRK. On

In rear OF the buildings on Orange ST., we're,
says the Tribune, some twenty or thirty small
shanlies, occupied by a family IN every apart

in all. These were swept clear, aud their &C.
cupants-a motely and wrelched looking crew
whose like now exists nowhere in the world
turned into the street. 1t was impossible to
obtain any thing like a correct list of the suf-
ferers, as the streets were packed for many
blocks with such a mass of human beings as
cannot be described. The Boys were there

women and children, all were there-every

to be 'done in corner
My reason for doing this deed is, that am
wearicd Of life and hopeIessly unhappy.
desire you, my friend, to make the commu-
nicalon TO Mrs. B. in the best way YOU can
Perhaps it may not be altogether unexpected
by her, as have more than once minated to
her that might take such a course.
The clergy sometimes avail themselves of
such an occurrence to "pont moral, =" and
the press to furnish paragraph--I hope they
will have sufficient seif-denial to dispense with
this charitable and exquisite Qualification in the
present instance.
My advice to Mrs. B. would be to return TO

manner IN which you were pleased to urge
my acquescence. ! have given to the sub

not without many msglvings, to accept the

sacred nature and strong reluctance to
leave scenes and employments endeared to
me by many ties, have had to encounter the
painful consclentiousness that shall be likely to
prove unequal to the faithful responsibilities of

tirement and of comparative exemption from

hctude the prospect of the arduous public la

that may not prove entirely unworthy of the
generous conduct of your Diocese, nor forget,
