A Discouraged "DOrE."

MIR. EDITOR: noticed in the Daily, a few
lines in regard to a strange dog that came into a
provision room on Cushnoc Heights. That dog
was u strange dog indeed, and now looks more
strange than ever, and it is more than strange
how the present owner came by that dog. Per.
haps short history of the dog will be in order:
The said dog was owned by Mr.. A. n. See.
ing Mr.. 2. on Water street not long ago Mr.. A
N. asked Mr.. 2. if he wanted dog. That being
just what Mr. p. was in pursuit of, Mr.. 2. very
readily told HIM he did. Mr.. A. N. told Mr.. T
if he would take the dog and take good care Of
him, he would make Mr.. 2. present Of him, as
he was a very nice dog and pretty one too, and
had such nice sleek, black hair and long tail He
thought very much of the dog, but still he would
make Mr.. p. a present Of the dog, and finally did
But you can judge the surprise and feelings OF
Mr.. A. N. when he has chance to see that dogs
tail, finding it just four inches longer than any
other dogs tail in town. And to think that he
was such fool to give the dog into such hands.
1t is thought by some on Cushnoc Heights tha
the present owner came by the dog by drawing
and that is why his tail is four inches longer. Bu
Mr.. 2. still sticks to it that the dog was giver
him.
fany one finds strange dog that has a tai
pulled out just four inches longer than any Other
dog, color black, long legs, long body, please re-
turn to Mr.. p. on Cushnoc Heights, or

The SearspOrt Robbery.


We indebted to the lady operator in the
Western Union telegraph Office at Searsport for
the following facts in relation TO the robbery
mentioned in Mondays Journal -
The robbery was committed between and s
o'clock in the evening" the burglars entering the
house by a false key, while Mr.. Park and wife
were absent The presence of the burglars was
not noticed by Mr.. Park until the neNt morning
after the theft when he observed the inner doors
and also the front door (Which was bolted when
he retired) were open. The money, $500 in
specie, a gold watch valued at $500 and notes of
value to himself alone amounting to nearly $1,000.
were conta ned in q small trunk, which the rob
bers found in closet adjoining the dining room.
Nothing else was disturbed, except Mr.. Parks
ovcrcoat, which was thoroughly overhauled and a
pocket book in an inner pocket ritied of its con-
tents save key, which, had the robbers been
posted, would have admitted them to a safe and
several thousands of dollars in bonds &c. Al
though several days have passed since the robbery,
not the least clue to the burglars has becn Oh
tanned.
