A Penitent Dog.

Dog stories have been SO common and
so marvellous as to obtain little more
credence than "fish stories," but the
following is so we'll vouched for as to
leave no possible doubt of its truth. A
lady in Lowell owns very intelligent
dog, of which she desired much to have
picture. She accordingly took him to
Photographic gallery, and with the as
sistance of the artist endeavored to make
her pet take and keep suitable position
before the camera. But the spoiled dog
was in an accommodating mood that
morning, and, after repeated trials, the
attempt to conquer him was abandoned
in despair. eco home" the lady said,
at last, pointing to the door. "You are
a bad, naughty, naughty dog" The
culprit changed Instantly his saucy man
ner, and, dropping his tail between his
legs, skunk away in confusion. All the
rest of the day he seemed to realize that
he was i'll disgrace, crouching III corners
and wearing shamefaced air. The next
morning he was missing, and all search
failed to discover him. About noon he
reappeared, much elated, and having
fastened to his neck an excellent tin
type of himself. Inquiry disclosed the
fact that when the photographer went
down town in the morning the intelli-
gent dog had been at the door of the
gallery awaiting admission. AS soon ms
the door was opened Carlo ran joyously
up stairs and leaped into the chair on
which his mistress had posed him the
day previous. Selling the situation, the
artist made his preparations with all
possible speed, and the result was the
delightful picture which the four-footed
penitent had taken home, as peace.
Offering to his mistress.

East Indian Snakes and wolves.

An East India paper says: Zone
thousand two hundred and sixty-four
persons were killed by wild animals and
9,515 by snakes in the Presidency of
Bengal last year. In the same period
the number of cattle destroyed was up
ward of $4,000. This, says Bombay
paper, is n considerable bill OF mortality
for one Presidency, but we suppose in
this, as in all other matters, as is so
often asserted, the minor Presidencies
must admit the superiority of Bengal.
Compared with the returns OF 1878, the
figures quoted from an interesting state
ment just issued by Mr.. COUNSEL, the
Acting Registrar, show a considerable
increase. In one respect, however, there
was falling off, namely, in the number
of persons killed by wolves-eighty-
three, against 152 in 1873. Probably
wolves are less voracious in Bengal than
they used TO be, but the shikars, anna
teur and professional, have not shown
more consideration for them than for
merly. Indeed, the sportsmen have met
with greater success than ever, for
nearly 500 more were killed than in the
previous twelve months. Altogether
5,543 wild animals were destroyed dur
ing the past year. From the statistics
sent IN to Government it appears that
II, 102 snakes were killed, against "a, 276
in 1878, but the actual number was
probably very much larger. The re-
turns relate only to the snakes for the
destruction of which rewards were paid.
These rewards are only given for CO.
bras, daboras, and keraits destroyed
within the limits of towns, municipal
ties, and villages in which the Village
Chowkidaree act is in force, and it seems
that many persons who destroy venomous
snakes, even within the limits for which
rewards are given, never ask for the
money to which they are entitled. The
total amount paid in rewards last year
VAS 2S,370. ii rupees"
