The mistress of the Pound took him
to one yard. Flo saw his dog in the
throng, he leaped to him, caught him
in his arms, kissed him, with many
joyous, broken ordinations. But
now rs ho looked at the dog again
he exclaimed "Somepody has cut
off his tall and would not hoar
reason or comfort for the mutilation
of his stechoene Prinzalee." Gradu-
ally he was led to see that as he had
lost his dog only the day before, and
as the dogs tail showed that it had
been cut off month or moro, he
must be mistaken about it's identity.
Then he is talk en- into another yard
and thore is his dog, indeed, tail and
all, and recognizing his master as
tho other did not. So the happy
fellow paid his two dollars and went
out with his Prinzalec. Then the
wife of the superintendent heard a
noise in the road, and there was the
Dutchmnn dancing with all his might
and main in the middle of tho road,
and his Prinzalee up on his hind
legs dancing and caporing with him.

appearance. When ho got him in
the wagon he thought Il hat he look
ed like his old clever pupil. He
was brought to the Pound, and his
identity made sure by doin g prompt
~ all tho tricks Bob had taught
him long before.
The superintendent has in his
possession now n large, fine looking,
but tierco dog, always chained,
whose history is interesting. He
was found by one of the members
OF the society, suffering from q
mangled leg in tho street; and was
sent to the tem mporary refuge, and
afterwards to tho Pound. His ieg

most invulnerable defense for the

nurse the babies while the mother
rides in golden chariot drawn by
white ostriches. The less credulous
and moro industrious people are
told that cotton and rice. grow with
out replanting, so that two crops
arc gathered each year ; that coffee
is perennial, end only requires pick
ing and sackipg, and that in few
years they VIII be as rich as thei
old masters wore before the war
The most Intelligent are appealed
to upon social principles. They are
told that they mny stay among the

them place and position in their

queens, lords and ladies, among o
people whom they will elevate by
their association ="
