A DETROIT woman lately saved herself
and children from a rabid dog, invading her
premises, by seizing and bestriding the an
imal, and holding him in such position
that he could not bite. She then dragged
him to the gate, flung him out, and shut
and bolted it. The dog made desperate eff
fort to get in again, but got his head fast, and
was struck with an axe, when he struggled
out and ran across the street, where he
died. The brave woman was badly
scratched, and her dress was covered with
green specks Of foam, but, no thanks to the
imbecile law-makers, that she was not ia
tally injured. h y3eas i9a'
1 We condense this account from o Detroit
exchange, and would here inquire if there
is not some way to lessen tho number OF
dogs in Richmond. In some parts of the
city they make the night so perfectly hide
GUS with their howlings, that one might as
well attempt to sleep in Hades itself, with
its hundred headed Cerberus stirred up by
the hottest poker to be found in that dis
NAL abode, as to get any rest under their
continual barkings. We have fought fleas,
mosquitoes, wood-ticks, chigres, and al
most every other nameable and unnamea-
BILE human pest, but these Richmond dogs
be at them all. fe4s 81.

ScRrBNER's MONTHLY for July is Just

SCRIBNER's MONTHLY for July is just
out, presenting one of the best and most at
tractiye bills of fare for the season. 1t
opens with a carefully written and finely
illustrated article on "West Point" by the
welEknown Benson J.. Tossing, in which
both pen and pencil are graphically used by
the artist. "Braxy Miller's Dowry" is
continued, as is Mrs. Oliphant's "At his
Gates" Charles Dudley Warmers
"Saunterings" are as delightful as ever; in
fact, like good wines, they improve with age.
Fanny Howell contributes an article on
"Woman as Smuggler and Woman as a
Detective !" and Mr.. James b. Hodgskin
readable paper on "The Law of the Heart
and the Law of the Street, A third
paper on "Mr. Lowell's Prose" is con-
tanned in the present number. DR.. Hol-

handles it from somewhat rigid Presby-

with the Doctor in his estimate Of the evils
of this foreign Sunday" believing, as we
do, that the Sabbath was made for man,
and not man for the Sabbath, and, that
it was intended to be a day of rest and re-
creation from the bondage of toll. But, if
we all thought alike, there would be no
such happy diversity Of thought as is con
stantly displayed in the pages of this ex-
cellent magazine. The illustrations in the
present number are numerous and Of a
high order. Scribner's is the handsomest
monthly laid upon our table. 80 <.

Z ONE of the coalition organs says the
essential principles Of the Democratic party
have commended themselves to the best
class of men who have heretofore acted
with the Republican party" Another
says that the essential principles of the Lib
eral Republican party have been accepted
by the Democracy. Which is true? AS
the only essential principle of either is hum
ger for spoils, it may be said that both are
correct. t5...s

THE editor of the New York Observer,
the Rev. DIR. Prime, refers mournfully to
the !" heathenism" which has caused the
opening of the libraries and art galleries on
Sunday. If it be heathenism to prefer that
the masses Of our people should spend their
one day of leisure in a library instead of a
whiskey-shop, or an art gallery instead of
a modern concert-saloon, then the good
Doctor is right, and the people wrong.
But we suspect that DIR. Prime, in dis
charging his clerical blunderbuss at this
species of heathenism," has missed his
aim and must re-prime.
