SHOOTING IN THE 6TREET.-The inhabitants
of the lower end of Cumberland street were
startled on Thursday evening by the report of
pistol on the street. 1t appears that very
small, NANCY, and disconsolate looking dog -
a tradition in the neighborhood says that it
is the veritable dog that worried the cat, that
killed the rat, that eat the malt, that lay in
the house that Jack built-rushed frantieally
out, and with bow, WOW, WOW, that sounded
like a cracked penny whistle, made direct
and diabolieal assault upon very large man.
The very large man pulled out very large
pistol, pointed it at the very small, NANCY,
and disconsolate eur, and pulled trigger
The result was that there was very loud re-
port, the small dog was very active in getting
into the back yard, and fourteen ladies and
children were frightened out of all propriety
into an extempore bedlam.
