Dog and Master Reunited.

NEW YORK. Nov. 22.-A dramatic re- union of dog and master took place at the Tonbs. They had been sepa- rated for months, and when they met 1t was hard to say which looked the better pleased. After being released from his chain the dog gave a yelp of delight and shot like an arrow across the courtroom to his owner, whom he nearly overwhelmed with caresses. The man on his part took the pretty spaniel in his arms and caressed it un- til tears of joy flowed from his eyes, while he declared that money could not purchase the dog and they would never be separated again. P c. Collins was the dogs owner. He lost him on Fifth avenue several months ago and heard nothing until Friday, when he saw a man named Thomas Trimball offering to sell the animal in front of the Astor House. Collins had Trimble arrested, but he proved that he had bought him at the pound. Collins paid him and he was discharged.
