A TrErolAL Doe.-A few days since, a gentle
man in this city, strong temperance man, and
the owner Of good dog, purchased load Of wood
and employed two lrishmtn to saw it. Having
decided love for strong drink, they found that
,kcir frequent journeys to the place from whence
the liquor was obtained, consumed so much time,
that they decided to procure bottle and got It
iIiei Having done So they took it into the yard
where they were at work, putting it into con,
verenl place for future use. But Boss, who had
KEEP, an eye on their movements, was not to b.
deceived BY the string which was tied over the
cork. and he resolved to ,akeihe law into his own
hands, having no faith in the use Of moral suasion
IN ,si- case, and placing hmseinear it in the most
decided manner, he forbade their touching the
bottle again nor would he allow the men to leave
the yard till his master returned at night. lbs
men reported him as being dangerous eess.-
