BADLY BT."-As dog stories seem to be the
order OF the day, we give the following unvar-

"a gentleman who has a very fine residence up
town, lately adorned the grounds with more than
ordinary taste. Among other ornaments, not far
from the street. he placed a large casr-ifOn statue
of q dog, whose belligerant appearance and de-
FAINT attitude made him look as large as life and
twice as ugly For weeks afterWard the little
dogs and all on passing by the house, never
tailed to give the statue complimentary bark
and growl, which, however, never disturbed its
equanimity. But one day big old Towser from
tue country was following his masters market
wagon into town, and happened to spy the hostile
foru of the cast-iron foe. preliminary grOwl
and bow-wow produced no effect Surly and de-
dant his enemy continued to gaze at him. Canine
nature could stand it no longer. One leap over
the fence brought him into the yard, and two or
three more carried him to his mute antagonist.
Quicker than thought he attempted TO tasten his
teeth ON the cast-iron chaps of the statue but the
next moment gave up the contest. The last that
was seen Of chat dog he was sneaking out Of the
yard with his tail between his legs the most COM
pletey sold specimen of canine society ever wit.
