master, and, turning an eye Of defiance upon the
crowd, growled low but Significantly, v henever

Inc unconscious man. The Policemen lhumped

policemen, and. not wishing To destroy he noble
fellow. at The suggestion of Captain Woods, he
was left IN the quiet possession Of his nsensible
cOmpaniOn-who was in fact as well guarded as
he could have been in station bouse-and dur
ing tho long watches of the entire NIGHT, the
steepLeSs eye Of at least faithful friend looked
down, with uDtring gaze, upon that almost inan

resting lovingly on the bosom Of the slumberinp

As morning streaked the East, the sIomberer

Keeping even pace with the devious steps Of the
brute beside him. until, turning down towards
the docks, both disappeared in the grey gloom oi
approaching day. Such is a dog-what are men?
