THE OUTSIDE DOG IN THE FIGHT.

Here is a sharp satire on a large class
Of people who viii probably be the first
to condemn the cynical selfshness that
is the keynote Of the song. It was writ
ten apropos Of the Brooklyn scandal by
the inimitable John Paul:
You may sing of your dog, your bot
tom dog,
Or Of any dog that you please,
I go for the dog, the wise old dog,
That knowingly takes his ease,
And, wagging bis tail outside the ring,
Keeping always his bone in sight,
Cares not pin, in his wise old head,
For either dog in the fight
Not his is bone that they are for,
And why should any dog sail in
With nothing to gain, but a certain chance
To loose his own precious slin9
There may be a few, perhaps, who fail
To see it in quite this light;
But when the fur flies I had rather be
The outside dog in the fight.
I know there are dogs, most generous
dogs,
Who think it quite the thing
To take the part of the bottom dog
And go yelping into the ring.
l care not a pin what the world may say
In regard to the wrong or right;
My money goes, as well as my song,
For the dog that keeps out of thefght.

A YOUNG girl in Paris, named Mar

ate in a love affair, resolved to commit
suicide. Before going to bed she filled
her chamber with the most odorous
flowers, and having completely closed
the room, covered up her head and went
to sleep. She was found in an uncon.
scious state about next day, and although
by great skill she was recalled to life,
her reason had fled. She amagines she
has been transported to the kingdom Of
foweIs, and has become a marigold. 81
