THAT PURP,
DOOERAI.

THAT PURP.
DoGERAL.
There was once rattan terrier purp,
And fat little fellow was he;
With bright black eye he was quick and sprv
AS any tan terrier could be.
This stout rattan terrier purp,
AS you will presently see,
Was brought TO grief and his life made brief
BY the bite OF o murderous flea.
Ore day this rat tan terrier purp,
With his tail Of the stumpiest kind,
Near a rat-hOe sat. as still as a cat,
When he felt a sharp pain behind.
Quick as thought this rattan terrier purp
Made dash for the foe In the rear;
But he was so fat he could not get at
The spot by half an inch clear.
Then this beautiful rattan terrier purp
Did worry and twist and turn,
TIL nought could you see Of this terrier purp
But an inch Of his tall astern.
Now that was how this terrier purp
Was killed by a 1ea-bite severe;
Bet his master goes to Stokes & Co.'s,
Where fashionable clothing appear,
At No S24 Cht smut street.

The New Canal Bridnes,

At length, through the efforts Of Judge Cation
and the owners Of the Glass Factory, the matter
Of taking charge of, and opening and closing the
two swing bridges built across the main canal at
Ottawa last winter, has been judicially put into
something like sensible and practical shape.
These bridges. as our readers have been repeat.
edly informed in our columns, were built, under
special act of the legislature. by q tax LEVIED
on the town of Ottawa, the act providing that
after they built and paid for the city should
take charge of, run and keep them in repair.
The city refused to accept the charge and the
law giving the town no means er authority to
run them, the bridges have stood idle, though
daily and hourly rressingly nssded.
At length the GiHss Company, To whom at
least one Of the bridges is an Indispensable ne.
cessity, through Judge Cation, sued out writ of
mandamus before Judge Richmond, of the Lacon
circuit, (Jxage Iceland, of our circuit, being sup.
posed to be intesestod,l the object of the writ
being, to compel the city Of Ottawa to obey that
portion Of tile law under which the bridges were
built which imposes upon it the duty Of taking
charge Of and running the bridges The case
| was finally heard at Ottawa on Thursday of last
week, Jadge Richmond kindly coming to Otta.
wa to hear and determine it. Judge Cation made
the argument on behalf OF the rslstors; ]. B

viewed particularly from literary or intellect

all who think, but as inquiry into the causes

adapted to interest writers, speakers, lawyers,

therefore are especially invited to give the

GOLD WATCHES are generally put down
among articles of luxury, yet there is no piece
of furniture about the house more strictly an
article of necessity than good time piece, and
the best watches are always put in gold cases, SO
that, in the long run, good gold watch is cheap
er than a silver one even brass or wooden
clock The reader will find this especially true
on giving fair trial to the splendid gold watches
at the jewelry store of Mr. Jesse Dickey. He
has them at prices varying from $40 to $l15-of
American and foreign manufacture.
In iewelry of all kinds, and pure silver or gold
and silver plated ware, Mr.. Dickey's stock has
been very much enlarged of late and is really
splendid.
