Os training the Kampscad \Lv.for
Jet vice—Jutm Tcoke's bijtjry cf
Rujf.u
THE rr.ann.-r in which the!.-
ani'i a!s arc framed to their lin
(>uhir employment, has lb pow
erful an influence on the indivi
dual pr ptreies of the whole ipe
cies, that the description of it,
will not he uninttrefting even to
thephilofophic reader. For p: -
per draught dogs, the choice is
principally made of such as havo
high legs, long ears, a sharp
muzzle, a broad crupper, and
thick heads, and discover great
vivacity. As soon as the pup
pies are able to fee, th y arc
thrown into a dark pit, where
they remain lliuc up until tne)
are thought lufHcienily lbong to
undergo a trial. I hey are then
h melted with their trained dogs
to a fledge, with which the)
Jcamper away witji all their
might, being frightened by th.
light, and by so many ltrangt
objects. After this fliort trial,
they are again confined to then
gloomy dungeon ; and this prac
tice is repeated, till they are inu
red to the business of drawing,
and are obedient to their driver.
From this moment begins then
hard and miserable courie, only
alleviated by tire lhorc rccrcatioi
the funimer affords them. At
in tins ieafon they are of no ler*
vice, nobody car-s about them,
butrney enjoy a perfect liberty,
which they principally employ
in affiiaging • heir hunger. Then
lole nouiifliment coniifts of fifh
which they watch fur all th s
time by the brinks of rivers, anc.
which they catch with great dex
terity and cunning. When the)
have plenty of this food, like
the bears, they devour only the
heads, and leave the rest behind
‘1 his respite, however lasts on
ly till October, when every pro
prietor allembles his clogs, ana
ties them up in a place a ’join
ing to his dwelling where they
mutt be kept on spare regimen
to bring down the fupeifluous
fat, that they may be rendered
more fi: for running. With the
firft fall of lnowcommences thrir
time of torment ; and then day
and night is heard thrir dread ill
howling, in which they teem to
bew.vl their miserable fate.—
With tiie lurd lot these animals
have to bear the winter through,
their food confilts only ot loured
or dried fi h in a lire of corrup
tion, and even this they are on
ly allowed as the better diet, to
rcfielh and invigorate them, as it
is observed that they become
nice and more eafiiy tired on re
ceiving this dilicacy shortly be
fore they let out on a journey.
Their ordinary sustenance is
n ouldy dned fifh, a treat at
which they can fcldotn latisfy
their c.pprtite wit bout bleeding
jaws, as the greater part of it
consist of bones and teeth. This
haul uljge, however, they gene
rally revenge by their arruziity
Velocity, which spares no objed
ciT vv.iich thev can lav hold.
\\ i h ih icvifh artifice they mount
ladder to tne aerial cubbord o
their tyrannical triaftri ; witl
unnatural grecdmels thev prt\
upoii his thongs straps, and lea
theis. wherever they find them j
and the uepr. vity of their tutb
is lu h, that rarely can a Kampt
lb ad-tie incline in obedience u
the icitoolcr calls of nature, with
out fi.ft arrring hirrAJr with a
whip ; as at all times a ravenous
>a k is read) to contend *o
lood for his loacbfo ne leavings.
Not cnly in their voracity
however, but in the whole indi
vidujlity of their brutal beha
viour, this depravity is ever eon
fpicuous. Instead of the vigi
•ance, fidelity, and attachment
which the dog every where fiaews
or his feeder, and thcrefo e has
in all na ions been made the
ivmba 1 of those virtues, the
Kamprfhad&le dog has afiumed
the char after of a crafty Have
Sly and unfriendly he flmns the
ook of his master j unconcer
ned about the fafety of his pro
perty, he will n ;t stir to defend
itagiinftthe stranger. Timid
and sullen, he sneaks prowling
! alone, fbll leering on every fide
[from suspicion. It is only by
| artifice and deceit that they can
be harness-d to the fledge ; while
this is doing, they ail stretch
‘heir heads upwards, and set up
a melancholy yell, but as soon
as the fledge is in motion, they
are fu ide.uly mute, and then by
i hundred artful tricks, seem to
vie with each o h:r to weary the
patience of the driver, or resol
ved to bring his life inro jeopar
dy. On corning to a dangerous
place, they redouble their Ipeed ;
wheie, to avoid being precipita
ted down a steep mountain o
plunged in o a deep river, ha is
commonly forced to ab melon the
fledge, which seldom fails of be
ing broken to pieces, and he Oi -
Ay fit.ds ic again at the nexc vil
lage, if the dogs have not been
so lucky as to set themselves fret
out right.
Yet ihe don; of Kamptlh rtka,
though so degenerate from thr
cell of his kind, is not deficient
n qualities by which he may be
f'rvi.eable to man when he
pleases. Besides the advamage
)f being able, with these light
•reatures, to traverse the track
less mountains, and proceed a
ongthe furface of deep rilges
)f snow, they are also excellent
guides on the dreary wav; as in
he moil pitchy darkness, and in
he molt tremendous itorms of
snow, they find out the pla’e tor
which their mailer is bound. Ii
die dorm be so violent, that, un
ible to proceed, they mu(l re
nain on the fpor, as not
juenily happens, the dogs lie br
he fide of their mailer, and p>e
‘erve his life by their nature
warmth. They likewifegive in
fallible notice of appro ichm
lorms, by scratching holes ii
he Inow, and endeavouring t
fbrlter themselves in them. B
these and many other good qua!
ties, the Kampdhadale dogs bv
‘ar overbalance the mischieis
they do by their perversity j anti
to what other cause than the ty
rannical treatment they receive
from hard hearted man, is the
blame of this perve: fry to be as
lcribed ? Great as their rogue
ries may be, they 1 orn compa
rifbn with the cold and felfilh ‘in
gratitude which these and graded
animals, chained to perpetual
bondage an! Ilnpes, endure
from manki id. Scarcely has the
Kamptlhadale clog, worn out by
the weight of his bodily fuffb’-
rings, arrived at a premature
old age, in which he is u..fxr any
longer to draw, than his inexo
rable mailer exat's of him thr
lalt lurrender he is able to make,
h:s lkin ; and the lame crueliy
treated llave, who during his
ihort and painful life, has so of
ten imparted his animal warmth
to his mcrcilef; tyrant, affords
him the fame service, and in the
iame manner, even after his
death.

A RECEIPT
To make “ young bucks’*
There are a great many ways
in th s world to become conse
quential, and as there are a uom-
Oer of men who wilh t * acquire
coileqoence—-a few hints on
that head probably will not be
unacceptable. Thefiiftftep is,
to become a< quainted wirh Mr.
Snip, who will furnifh a good
external a pearance, and let him
be the fi ll man over whom you
.Home consequence ; you pro
oably will noc hive fufficient
<’afh to furiiifha luit of clothes ;
hat is immaterial ; let tne luit
be made, and ted him to call
ro-morrow, for fcttlement—when
he calls, be lure to have your
fi ie clothes on, for then you will
be able to eva ie payment with
nore grace, and more like a
gentleman—you can at the fame
time tell him, you think he has
great mfulence to call for the
noney so soon; that it appears
as if he doubted your honour,
and w th a f w “ dam me fir,”
icick him out of the room—you
need rot be affraid, a tavlor has
too much chrillianity to refen<
your ill usage—is er you have
got rid of M . S.iip, you ought
to furnifh yourfelf with a largr
white pocket handkerchief, and
let it hang two thirds out of you
pocket, and if you are apprehen
sive of lofmg ir, you can pm it
in tne next thing ne
ceflary are a pair of gloves, but
vou must noc wear them both—
you mult keep one dangling be
tween the thumb and finger ot
vour right ha .d—vour ex erna
aopearance will then be complete,
.nd you will be able to ftruc a
bout tne itrects and stare at every
e.uaie you fee, with much left
a:isfaft;on—(here is one thing
i liad ncariy OiTiitted, a final
glals, which you inuft tie rout.d
our neck with ayel ow ribbon,
md every now and then quiz the
people with it, for it is the
eight of talhion to appear near

When you are fatigued with

u-el perfju ycu may meer, may
accott wth “damme fir, the
weather’s hot, &c.—a gentleman
-an get no a commodation in
tms town, London is the place
lii”—and il you should get over
a bottle of wine, you can talk
about places which you never
law, and circumtlances that nev
r happened; and if you tell a
ew lies, it is not of much con
li-quence. it will only tend to
o.,vince the pe fun you have a
very fertile imagination. —It will
be needftry before you talk a
bout London, Laris, or other
populous cit.es, to get acquain
tea with the principal itreets,
which you can eufily do by go
ng to any of the llores, ana pe
ruling for five minutes tne ne
ceifaiy books—out it your head
should be too conlufed by the
lalt night’s debauch, which very
happens to consequential
beaux, you may mark them
down on a piece of paper, and
get them by heart at your leilure.
And if you wish to become ve
ry consequential, you mud speak
obfcenelv, swear, drink, and
talk o t fighting—taking care, a:
the lame time, that it does nor
oeco ne too lerious —if ic ihoulc
here will be no other alterna
tive but fubonilEon, and there is
no lubmiffian but what you
ought to ihew, rather than en
