luded to. Russell, also, though he was
unable to point with pride to &c as his
own property, had similar quadruped
following him. These animals; impell-
ed by that instinct WhiChiis particular
ly the property of dogs, commenced a
ter0cious attack upon each other. But
Gully dog getting a little the worse OF
the battle, that gentleman went to his
assistance. ReinforeeInents, however,
on theSother side, were advanced in the
shape OF Russell, who either showed OF
struck Mr.. Gully, causing him to fall
back several feet, and at the sametime
stating in an offensive mauneEitha he

At the same time and place Charles
SeibeEt, thinking TO stay the etfusion OF
tblood, made feeble efforts to separate
the contending parties. But, as medi-
ators are very apt to do, he got mixed
up in the ARRAY himself. For his pains
he was told by Russell that he was fully
as low and dirty as Mr.. o. This state.

strongly upon his efforts to maintain
his health, these cholera times by ire

that he was as sweet and clean as "any

ed that he couldn't "chaw up" more
than half of him. l3
His pacific intentions at first, and his
SUBSEQUENT belligerent exhibition war

worthy Of giving a lift 10 the city. BE

Unwarned by the proceedings of Sat

arrested him. e
Being brought before his Honor on
the second charge of raising fulse
alarm of fire, he was fined I'VE dollars
and cost.
But his troubles were not ended. Still
from one labor to another thrown, he
was arraigned on o charge OF resisting
an officer In the discharge of his duty.
When arrested by officer Price for
ringing the fire bell, he walked quietly
finding the officer meant to put him IN
the lock up in good earnest, he grew
obstinate, and obstructed rapid pro-
gress by clinging to tree boxes, fence
ratings, and the pavement. The Off

greatly from Saturday night, was ltotai-

with refusing to assist officer Price, but
the case against him was dismissed.
