Doc HosP1TAL.-Much, and deservedly, as
it was laughed at, the dog hospital-the
Home for Starving and Lost Dogs us
really an accomplished fact in London. II
has five patronesses, including the widow Of
the late Right Honorable Lady Millicent
Barber. The committee consists Of seven
ladies (all matrons save one) and five gen.
tlemen, including a captain in the army,
captain in the navy, and clergyman, the
Rev. Il. Bates who is treasurer and honor
ary secretary. The home is in back
street, and consists of n stable divided into
compartments in which the dogs are kept
All of them have been found in the streets
without owners - some almost skeletons
from hunger, others diseased. A man feeds
them twice day. and also takes them out
for xercise. The canine exhibition is very
motley-the majority being of ignoble breed
and lineage, while others are true English
bulldogs and mastiffs, Highland deer
hounds, Skye terriers, and there is one
genuine Dande Dinmont The committee
restore lost dogs to their owners, when ap-
plication is made, and give away all un-
owned dogs, after keeping them for q time,
"hoping that all who can afford it will make
a donation toward the expenses Of the home
in proportion to the value of the dog Sc
lected." To prevent dog-stealing, no re-
ward is givensto persons bringing dogs to
the home.

A VEEY learned and compassionate
judge in Texas, on passing sentence on John
Jones, who had been convicted of murder,
concluded his remarks as follows;
The fact is, Jones, that the court did not
intend to order you 10 be executed before
next Spring, but the weather is very cold,
our jail, unfortunately, is in very bad
condition; much of the glass in the windows
is broken; the chimneys are III such q
d1lapidated state that no fire can be made
to render your apartments comfortable; be-
sides, owing to the great number of prison
ers, not more than one blanket can be al
lowed to each; to sleep sound and COM
fortably, Therefore, will be out of the ques-
ton. In consideration Of these circum-
stances, and wishing to lessen your suffer-
ings as much as possible, the court, in the
exercise of its humanity and compassion,
hereby orders you to be executed to-mor-
row morning, as soon after breakfast as
may be convenient to the sheriff and agree
able you.
