BITTEN ny A DOG.-WcdnesilNy even.
Ing, n son Of James RIgOy, residing in the
southern part OF tho city, was severely
bitten in the right arm by dog, whereof
Richard Richards Is the owner. Young
Rigby being the third or fourth person in
lursd by this savage canine, It was deem
ed prudent to invoke the law made and
provided for the disposition Of such worth
less ours. Complaint was made before
Squire ClOhan, and the dOgs's master
summoned to appear to answer the charge
filed under the statute mentioned. The
matter was satisfactorily arranged by
Richards promising to send tho brute
where we wish. all dogs were. We
trust Mr., II. has kept his engagement. II
about two thousand more Of the dog
species inEGsting the city were consigned
to tho same locality it would DO happy
radiance.

Judge Miller presiding, the case OF
c. Il. Mccormick and Leander J
Mccormick, against John Strachan,
of Mineral Point, in equity, came up
yesterday on motion of complainants
for an injunction against defendant
and appointment of receiver; and
the Same having been arranged by
Finches, Lynde and Miller for com
plalnants, and Messrs. Palmer Hook
or and Pitkin for dcfendant-the
court thereuron allowed the injunc.
ton, and also appointed Frederick
q. Smyth, or Madison, receiver.
This IL is very important case,
! involving nearly 100000 in amount,
and grows out Of transactions while
defendant was acting IS the agent Of
complainauts in the sale Of their har-
vesting machines during the years
1867, 1868 and 1869. The order
appointing the receiver requires the
defendant, Strachan, forthwith to
turn over all notes, accounts, ma
chimes and other property in his
hands, belonging to the complainants,
to the said receiver Smyth and the
injunction allowed restraints the de-
PENDANT, Strachan, from inter-med-
ding with any of the property in any
way or manner. Thus all who are
owing for the machines sold by
Strachan must make payment to the
receiver, Smyth.- Mitwaukee Sentinel,
