entire city. The midnight air is vocal With
their howlings, diversified by an occasional
canine riot, in which ours of all degrees par
Ilcirlte, and where no policeman makes ar
rests for 'riotous conduct. > 1t is truly hoped
that the days of the many CANNES that in
fest this city, and roam the streets, seeking
prccarious living, may be few The multitude
In some parts of the city is astonishing. A
few nights since, the writer, while vending his
way homeward suddenly found himself In the
midst of, though not participant, in dog
riot" and only saved his person from Injury
by rapid fight from the scene, the pack at
his heels baying in manner that recalled
stories of early settlers chased by wolves. -
Invalds and persons who are i'll, and those
who are so constituted as to require comparative
quiet to induce sleep, are often kept awake for
hours by the yelpting, bowling, barking, groWl-
ing, singly, in duett, quartette and grand chorus
Of dogs! Without owners, at least so far as
the assessors books show, they are nuisance
that should be abated It is proposed by some
citizens 10 go hunting Of nights in the streets,
with shot guns, and thus reduce the number.
The plan has its merits and dangers also. -
Others propose the free use Of srychnlnc,
plan not much less dangerous than shooting.
The man who would propose a feasible and
certain scheme to rid our city Of its auperahun-
duntcurs, should be hailed asita benelactor, and
would be justly cntiIedto the public gratitude.

The CoLoRED POPULATION OF ALExAN-
DRlA.-As the Radical memorlalists to Con
gress, from this place, claim to have polled at
the late municipal election upwards Of 1900
votes, and as the white portion OF said vote
did not exceed IS or 80, all told, it becomes a
matter of interest to ascertain the facts in re-
gard to the number of coored men in this
place. who would be entitled to vote, provided
they had the right; and for this purpose we
have obtained from good authority, the follow
ing, in reference to the number Of the colored
population: ........
The number Of colored males, heads Of FAM
lilies, in this city, upon actual count, Is; lll2;
children Of both sexes, over IA years Of age,
$50, Of which number about halt, or 800, are
males, and probably one. third, Or 100, are
adults This would give voting population
of about 1921. There are 10 mears Of deter.
mining accurately the voters among those en-
tered 10 the census as over If years.
Where the other 300 came from can be
guessed as well by our readers as oursel yes.
