| Mr.. Snarl resides in Forsyth street. Mr..
Snarl is an Old bachelor, With an Irish girl for
housekeeper. Snarl lives in good style, but
has some queer notions. He dislikes dogs
above all things, organ grinders and beggars
not excepted
| Snarls next door neighbor is Harry Sampson. |
Now, Harry is the very opposite Of old enar1 |
| He sets high value on dog, and there is only |
one article equal to a Newfoundland, and that |
is woman. Harry has several specimens Of |
the canine race. The other evening they got I
up a bowling match because the moon was
eclipsed. They commenced about 10 o'clock and
kept it up until the sun got an inch and half
above Williamsburg.
This so annoyed Mr.. Snarl, that he had
Harry jerked up for g q nuisance" and fined
ten dollars. Harry paid the money, but re-
solved on revenge The next morning the ioi-
lowing advertisement appeared in the Herald
WANrED--At Forsyth street, two bull dogs,
and four spans of pups. For full blooded dogs
the highest price will be paid Call between
and 6, P. Nj. JAMES SSARL.
We need not say that the advertisement was
inserted by Harry. His reason for making the
calls between A and 6, p. NJ, was because Mr..
snarl was always cut at that hour, taking an
airing around the Battery.
at the hour specified, dogs and pups might
| have been seen going up the Bowery to Grand,
to Forsyth. and up Forsyth to the mansion oe
cupied by Mr.. Snarl.
The first person that pulled the door bell was
of bull dogs that would 'stear hell out of a
.. tiger" Maggie answered the bell, when the
1 following colloquy took place Ea

/" He does. Why do you ak"

: Here Syksic took out the morning Herald,
J. and showed Maggie the advertisement Maggie
4, was thanderstruck, there was no denying the
J. advertisement. She accordingly told Syksic to
e 60 into the back yard "wid the dogs and
Il await the return Of Mr.. Snarl Syksie did so
q In about two minutes Maggie was again sum
y moned to the door bell,
t. What do you want !"
Mr. .Snarl; I've got them dogs you wanted .
ID g You have; well, then, 60 into the yard wild
g the other blackguard."
q No. 2 followed No. /. No. 2. was soon fol
ts lowed by No. 9, who was succeeded by lots 4,
n and 6. By balf-past the backyard contained
us twenty-o -one bull dogs and fourteen spanels
q The former got up q misunderstanding, and by
p. the time Mr.. Snarl arrived, seven spaniels hac
