The dogs were, WIth a few exceptions, of different breeds. They ranged from a St. Ber- nard to a fox terrier. The dogs in Will'amsville are ye- ported to be very snappy.

One stu- dent, who is studying "into the small hours of ine morning," threatens to shoot the animal which keeps hotl- ing all night long.

Another lean-looking specimen, the breed of which was somewhat of a puzzle, was running along the walk towards Brock street. It frightened a couple of young child- rén waiting outside one of the stores, and gave a man reading the Whig bulletin quite a shock as it brushed past him, for he fade a remark to the effect that "You might as well kill a man as to frighten him to death." - At the Brock street ecorfier a black spaniel, which appeared to ve more of a house dog, was waiting' for its owner, On Clarence street, as the scribe stopped to speak to Constable Nich- olas Timmerman, who wag faithfully "beating" his beat, two dogs were seen squirming in front of the post office. From all appearances one of them at least was 'a "tramp," and was "nosing' around to see gvhat he could pick up in the I'ne ofS{'eats."
