An act OF the corporation of Washington, ABB
proved June 3, 1858, made 1t the duty of police
men to seize and carry to the Washington Asy-
lum all hogs found running at large No fine or
other penalty was prescribed In this act except
that the hog or hogs shall be seized and taken to
the asylum.
An act approved March %, 1868, proyider that
4 fine Of two dollars shall be imposed upon the
owners OF sheep, goat, swine, or geese, &c. found
running at large, This act also provides that
the Mayor may appoint from time to time one or
more pound masters, who shall furnish and mi lin.
tain, without expense or charge to the CITY, An
enclosed yard for public pounds; and 1t further
provides that any Of the animals above men.
toned may be taken by any person and driven
to said pound. The last section OF this act re.
peals all acts or parts OF acts Inconsistent with
this act.
An act approved April II, 1906 entitled "An
act to repeal the act approved March %, 1868, -
II rs follows, via:
"Bc IL enacted By The Board of Aldermen and Roa,d
q Common Council Of he city of Washington, That
the act approved March 20, lsG3, entitled iAn Act
ior Ihe establishment OF pounds within the city
OF Washington be, and the same Is hereby re-
pealed."
II will thus be seen that the old law providing
for the sending of hogs to the Washington Asy
lum was repealed by the act Of March %, 1868
establishing u pound or pounds, and also pre-
ScrlDlng line for Its violation, and that this ac
OF March g. lsja, Is repealed by the act of Apri
IA, 1906
Since the last date no law has been enacted In
relation to hogs or other animals, consequ
the city of Washington Is now without any law
prohibiting hogs or other animals from run inl
at large.

celebrated by the American and British squad
rons-thirteen vessels at Hiogo and two al Osaka.

were kindly received"
Another dispatch furnishes the distribution OF
the vessels under his admiral Bell's) command,

teen hundred copies OF the journal printed.

citizens OF Georgia-yeas lo2, nays26.
All the officers of the convention were voted
extra pay for their services.
A motion to adopt the constitution as whole
was carried-yeas liz, nays II.
Mr. Farrow made speech before the coHyen-
tion, indorsing the constitution and the Radical
candidate for Governor, Mr., Bullock, of the
express company.
This unites the respective friends Of the two
Radical aspirants.

to sit in the Convention, will probably be theii
| candidate.
