Snarl is an old bachelor. with an Ir sh girl
Tor q hopsekeeper. Snarl lives in good
sly le, but has some queer notions. He dis
liked dogs above all things, organ grinders
and beggars not excepted.
Snarl's next door neighbor Is Harry
Sampson. Now Harry is the very opposite
Of Mr.. Snarl. He sets u high value on q
dog, and thinks their is only one article E.
quail to 4 N~ewfounlsnder, and that's a wo-
man. Harry has several specimens OF the
canine race. The other evening they got
up bowling match because -the moon
became ecIipsed. They commenced
about ten O'Clock, and kept twp till
the sun got an inch and a half above
Williamsburg.
This so annoyed Mr.. Snarl that he had
Harry jerked up for a nuisance and lined
ten dollars. Harry psid the money but re-
solved on revenge. The next day the fol-
lowing Advertisement appeared in tho Her

ed dogs the highest price will be paid. Call

W. need not say that the advertisement
was inserted by Harry. His reason for ma.
king the call between 4 and 6 p. D.. was be-
cause MIR. Snarl was always out at that
hour, taking an airing around the Battery
Al the hour specified, dogs and pups
might have been seen going up the Bowery
to Grand, to Forsyth, and up Forsyth tc
the mansion occupied by Mr.. Sn.rl.
The first person that pulled the doc; bel
was a butcher boy from Centre Market, with
q yair of bull dogs that would "tear h
out Of a tiger" Maggie answered the bell
when the following c~olloquy took place:
Does Mr.. Snarl live here?'
He does. Why do you ax?'
I've got some dogs for him.
Dogs for Mr.. Snarl-mother Of Nose,
did you ever; you've mistook the door,.

Maggie was thunderstruck, still there wa.

cordingly told Syksie to go into the bacl
yard wild the dogs and await the return
of MIR Snarl. Syksie did so. In abo TIVE
minutes Maggie was again summoned By

'Mr. Snarl-I've got them dogs he want

No. 2 followed No. /; No. 2 was soor
followed by No. 8, who was followed b,
d lots 5, 6 and 7. By half past FIVE the baci
c yard contsined twenty-one bull dogs an
fourteen spaniels. The former got up
d misunderstanding, and by the time Mr.
Snarl arrived, seven spaniels h d been pla

Snarl went back'-Snarl looked into tn
/. yard and would have sworn, but he coul
lie not find osths sufficiently powerful to d
i. justice to his feelings. When we left MI
,e Snarl was emptying the back yard with a
axe helve. The next morning Harry Samp
II son complained Of him having a dog fight
on his premises. Snarl was fined twent
five doilars-ffteen for having such a fight
and ten dollars for being an 'oId hyocrit.'-
1t is not necessary for us to say that Harr
