have been seen running about
the country, and about two weeks
ago IA map, by the name OF Heberl
was bitten by Que of them.
The number OF dogs, utterly
worthless, that are to be found in
this Parish, would astonish any
one that would take the trouble
to count them.
And III that number, not more
than one in Ten, is worth the pow

They prowl around the country
half starved. eating eggs, chick
ems, turkeys, pigs and every aud
any thing they can find, because
their owners give them nothing
to subsisi on.
Propositions viii! go before the
Police Jury at it's session iii June
to abate this abOminable nuisance
that is become too grievou, 70 be
borne. Women aud children, in
some parts of the Parish are in a
constant dread of encOunterino
these animals and being bitten.
Something should be done.
