Dog Stars.

Ashley introduced performing dogs at
his amphi:heater. but only in such tricks
as are now 10 be seen in the concert
halls; the ROYAL circus seems to have
been the first place in which the dog APP
peared as an actor in play written ex-
pressly to display bis peculiar talents.
The Roscii OF the canine stage two IN
Euribcr, were called Geler and Victor,
and sach was their popularity that
they held daily receptions, and people
Eocked in hundreds to gaze upon and
foni:c these canine phenomena. Dog
pieces became quite the rage; they even
invaded the classic stage of Drury Lane,
and one saved Sheridan from bankrupt-
CT. when keInble. Siddons, and a n;ag-
niiicent company of :wo-legged players
had been performing TO empty benches.
The actors who owned tie animals were
called s.dog stars" They always tay-
eied in pairs: one played the villain, the
other the virtnous individual; the latter
was attended by his faithful "dawg"
WHO protected him from all the maclii-
nations of his enemy, the villain of the
drama. At the winGup the latter took
'tthe seize," as it was called-that is TO
say, at given signal the Cog sprang at
his throat. which was guarded by
thick pad, invisible, of course, to the
audience, covered with red cloth; after
turning round like teetotum, and
shouting ''mussy, mussy"-they inya-
riabiy so pronounced the word-he
would fall and roll about in great agony
upon the stage, the dog still keeping a
tight hold, until he was supposed to be
dead. Shakspeare's plays in their time
have been made to assume many curious
forms, but Hamlet as dog piece is
the most startling of all, yet this was
actually achieved by one of these ''dog
stars" about i've and twenty years ago
in the provinces. He announced him
self as '.the only dog Hamlet which
he probably was, though the phrase,
from natural-history point of view,
was little mixed. The play was very
much abbreviated, of course; the Prince
of Denmark in every scene was attended
by a very large black dog, and in the
last the sagacious animal took upon
himself the o!iice OF eXecutioner by
springing on the King and putting an
end to his wicked career in the usual
orthodox (dog) fashion. So

EXCITING TIMES IN IRELAND.
"A Government Movement for the SUPP

"A Government Movement for the Sup
preston of the National Land League.
LONDON, Dec. 18.-The proclaiming Of
the anti-rent campaign in ireland is &C
cepted by the leaders of the Nationa!
Leaghe as step on the Governments
part toward the suppression of the League.
The funds of the League have already
been transferred to France in order to pre-
vent their seizure by the authorities, and
the rent moneys deposited with trustees
will also be secreted, to guard them against
Government designs.
The proclamation warns all persons that
the melting of tenants to refuse to pay or
to withhold rents is an illegal act. and that
the anti-rent movement, by whatever means
carried out, is criminal conspiracy. In
addition, it says that all moneys, receipts
or documents given OF received for the
purpose of such conspiracy are liable to
seizure, and that persons in whose posses
sion the same are found shall be arrested.
This sweeping measure is the production
of Lord Ashbourne, Lord Chancellor of Ire
land, and assent to its promulgabion was
obtain d at yesterdays Cabinet Coffncil.

A Water Company That May Bring a
FREQ supply.

A bill has been prepared by Mr.. Gator,
at the suggestion of several leading men.
The cities need not act under it unless they
desire. 1t provides that when two or more
cities shall have applied to the Governor
under the act, he shall appoint trustees,
residents and freeholders, two for each
city of one hundred thousand population
and one for each city with less population,
SO applying. Such trustees to be body
polite and corporate, with perpetual sue
cession, and to be known as Public Water
Trust Companies. The bill then at great
length and precision gives such trustees all
the powers to store waters, construct
reservoirs, condemn or purchase land or
water rights, divert streams, etc., etc. A
chief engineer is to be appointed, and the
engineers of the cities interested are to be
his assistants. They are to report to the
board having control of the finances in
each city, separately, their recommends
ton for water supply by gravity, of not less
than eighty millions of gallons per day, at
a point where it can be increased in the
future. The report must show the entire
cost, then if all the Boards so having con-
troll of finances approve, and not before,
the works are to be built at q cost not to
exceed an annual interest charge Of $780,
QUO, to be divided between the cities inter-
ested In proportion to population. The
provisions as to contracts aud bids, security
and inspection are ali very rigid and pre-
vent any possible waste of money. The
law departments of the cities are to be
counsel to the new company. All its legal
matters are gwen preference in Court.
The Governor fills all vacancies. The
joint cities appoint the banks for deposit
of moneys. Power to purify present water
supplies is granted if found expedient and
better. and to prevent pollution. All ser
wee at Belleyille will be dispensed with.
Other cities may come into the trust at any
time upon paying their proportion of oriei-
nal cost, and until they come IN water may
be cold TO such cities. This bill, it is
CLAIMED, would furnish " ater at an expense
not greater than now paid. and in future
years result in free water. II only Newark
and Jersey City build the works, the an
nual interest cannot exceed SIS, 00G each,
which is about the sum now paid at Belle
vile, which would then cease.

MISPLACED CONFIDENCE.
The afan Grocer Clearly Assists Deceives
and Robs Him.

Grocer Cleary, of No. 1877 Newark Ave-
nue., is still busy finding out how much he
may have lost by the crookedness of Louis
Gross, the collector whom he had arrested
one day last week, but has not got to the
bottom of the mans wickedness yet.
Mr.. Cleery ran across the man in Union
Fill six years ago. He told Mr.. Cleary that
he was out of work, and that his family
were starving, and he did not know what
hc was to do. He was offered employment
as a collector. Shortly after he moved to
Greenyille, and occupied house which Mr..
Cleary mad lately bought. Some time after
Cross commenced to sell tea and coffee for
Cleary on commission, by which means he
added considerable to his pay. His wife at
the same time was running grocery store
down there with goods furnished by her
husbands employer. Instead of drawing
his salary and commission in cash, Cross
would wait until his earnings amounted to
$50 or 800, and would then ask Cleary to
send the amount in goods. Mr.. Cleary
had no suspicious in regard to the honesty
of his collector until several weeks since,
when he went to Greenville and to Cross's
store. There he found goods which had
come from other parties. He thought it
strange that Gross should buy his goods
from others, considering the kindness
which he had received from Cleary. About
that time enc of his Oldest customers
told him that she had bought some tea
from Cross, who requested her not to in
form Clcary of il. Last Sunday Mr.. Cleary
made the discovery that Cross had collected
about S12 and had made no return. Since
then he has found cut that Cross has been
in the habit fer several years Of collecting
I bills from parties one Tesk, and telling his
employer that the people were out, end
that he would get il next week. He would
collect from someone else and then turn
in the money for the collection made the
previous week. This game he worked
right along from week TO week. The books
are being examined and Sow that he has
made away with considerable money. MI,
CieaFy has also learned that Cross has sold
to two perties goods TO the amount u s. ,oOt
for whish no returns have been made IS
