Never- ti'el ss, people may call the mention of the lact ;i rnism. tvitlmoi appreciating one half its Jrutli. In till-the volumes we have ever seen upoii doi;s. tiieir m*-rits have been treat*-d of philosophic d'y—physiologic dly—sportingly— domestically, «iih -> view to iheir services in the cause of snvage man—of civilized man— of ihe dweller in towns, and the inhabitants of fields :tnil forests. We have read much of do^s consider' d physically and morally—have ap|)lHtidetl canine attachment, and shook our heads at canine hydrophobia—but we doutt whether the claims of dugs have ever been properly advanced in i philological point of view- whether their service to --ur language has ever been properly pointed out—whether aiming die various kimls of assisiance they render us, there has ever yet been demonstra ted the aid they afford in constructing figures of speech—in rearing up and pushing into bud and blossom some of our most common flowers of rhetoric, and ahts! also the fatal effects which sometimes arise from the practice. Many, certainly, are the services we exact front our four-footed friend. Some of them jump into the water after our sticks; others are laboriously instructed in the ttccomplish- raent of sming on their hind legs with n piece of bread upon their noses; a pointer mds ns in getting hold ol u few plump parlridges; and a lurnspit helps—or used to help to cook them. Formerly, >■ poor mail used to lmve his cart dragyed by Hogs—now .t rich one thinks his equiptige incomplete without a while animal with bluish spots running in front, or bringing up the rear. Dogs watch our houses better t»uD die new police; and some elderly ladies patronize dogs i. stead or babies. Well-bred d* gs ba*k alike at beggar-, duns and thieves, i og» lead Mind men about the streets, and fly ai murderers’ throats on the stage. In minor exhibitions we are regaled with the view of dancing dogs, and we frequently see them serv ing as steeds to red jacketed mo -keys. Cats devour rats, but dogs administer poeiical jus tice by worry a g cats. Dog ate me most ubi- quitous of animals—they haunt the lady’s bou doir and the thieves’ garr-t; they cun make themselves comfortable on die rug before the fire, and the step before the door; we have made llu-nt fight with rats and fig t wilh lions; ihey citase little wretches of hares and grim monsters of bua*s; the smuggler’s dog trots p.tsi the douanier fat wittt lace wound round inm, between.uis reol skin ut.d false hide; the Fiencn si-oe-black’s doy duties every gentle man s boots he nan come across; we have dogs Witu snarp noses to sm II game, and dogs with lung legs {■■ cha.-e i'; we have d«*gs to bait bulls, and d gs to lie in I .dips’ laps; we have dugs be.iniifi.l from their grace, and logs beautifii- ftoro t- eir ugliness; dogs fight for us, play w.i.i us, bark ai us. bile at us; dogs furnish coiuioii.Lle livelihoods to entei prising indi viduals W no steal them, and pleasant forenoon’s amusement t*> committees ol partiamcot indig- iia tJit in.- theft; dogs amuse us. perplex us, l>*rm (in subject of innumerable disquisitions, point umi-imher.-d morels, ;md udon. uucuunt- ed tales; dogs are at our h> els at every turn, sometime- for ornamem, sometime- for use, aura-times for n»-itlier; wh re men are, tiog- somehow g- l; wh;.t men do. dogs som* liow anJ; tue .log waic es b» the chH ’s cr-.dle. a*>d des tit-o t the o d man’s grave; dog-and men are inseparable; <>ur d gs are our servants.— But not nlw.iys—th-y may sometiuies prove uur m'Stem. Ge e-ally, they lick our fiend, sometimes ihev bit- it; their mission here is to i-elp, but sometime- tle y hinder.

And Low this is—and iliut ibis is—will be s -own nnd proved by the annexed short biog- ran y of T"iim *s Lidl r. Wh it Tom was a Imhy, he was very like other balnes—t al ts lo any, be bad a face like a dumpling, nnd liiile fat mouled arms and legs. N-'Verilicb-ss liis mother s<i<l H>at he was the image nf lus father—as doubtless afer the way of wom<*>. she would have said had h« been b*>r*. with tb-< back of the head turned t*> the front. Tom crowsrt and chirped, und chirruped, after tlie manner of other pledges, und Mr. Lidler, s* mor, taking him in lus aims, swore lie w-'S n heaftv li ile dog—a jolly little dog—a rosy little dog—a plump little dog-” Here was the beginning ol Tom’s fst*', dimly foresRadowed in bei g called a dog. Ho was ever afterwards a dog of some kind or another. Years passed on Tom discaided petticoats and took to trow-ers. His favorite pursuit was breaking windows, playing truant, turn b'nng into the river, ind tumbling down from lives. His mother was always in imt water it bout him; but Mr. Li.iler taking a compre hensive v*ew of the m-iiter, onl.- laughed, pa'd for die broken glass, and interceded wilh tlie schoolmaster. * Wild young dog,’ wou'd Mr. Lidler say, iifier bestowing « senti-serious lecture upon his -on and heir—‘wild jroung dog—no man aging him—never mind, lie’ll sober down—a ftisk> young dug—we w> re all young once.’ Bui the frisky young dog «iid not sober down —on tlie contrary—the tncaphorical tipsii ess increased. Tom went to a public school—he never learnt his lessons. ‘Carehss young dog,’ said Papa Lidler; •must he mote attentive next ye*r—very bad accounts of you from Dr. Wakbov—you’re an idle dog. T**m—an idle dog.’ Sent home front schoil for thrashing the usher, Tran was only scolded as an incorrigible young dog; arid canuht winking at ih<- maids — was hail' fl tie ed as a slv o Presently Torn -ei up fur a mao rai town—the pecul ar eq ein - f-> tl.-- charaeter, liei g a enpa- hi ily fordoing any tiling but what is respecl- -1)1., and bei-onii aan\ thing <ut what >s useful. In this d'S!inuiij-he<l proiessio" Tom m-tde utucu pi ogress. He lounged in tobacco-shops and loitered in hilli.ird-ronms—he cut respecta ble “fathers of families,” and became intimate with fighting men—he ran up unheard-of bills for fashionable Chesterfields, and maintained that no g -ntleman could exist without three dozen pair of boots—promising to pay was so easy. However, to prevent tbe boots from wearing out too soon, he was careful to keep a tandem, and if he went into suspicious company at nights, it would keep him out of worse. Add to this, that he let his moustaches grow, and never came home till three in the morning. “And pr-.y how dees my friend Tom get on?” inquired a respectable oil-merchant of Mr. Lid ler in the latter’s counting house. For the first time on being asked such a question, Mr. Lidler half shook his head and half sighed. “Aim!” said he, “Tom is a sad dbg—he is not all the sort of thing—not what I hoped— a sad dog—a sad dog.” Now let it be remarked that there is a wide difference between a wild dog and a sad dog. Of the wild dog you have much hope—of the sad dog far less—the latter is a deep step in the downward progress. Tom’s companions, however, entertained ve ry different opinions as to his character from those so sorrowfully held by his father and Mr. John Jarr, the oil-merchant in the city. Al though bis first aspiring to tiieir society had been check' d bv the information that he was a “young whelp,” yet at length they condescend ed to talk of him as a ‘‘devilish gentlemanly dog.” Tom had money at his command—his jokes were therefore listened to with ringing ap plause—and he wa; a “funny dog.” He paid tavern bills, and he was a “jolly dog.” Had he not bad money, he would have been a “low dog,” and had he refused to throw it away, he would have been a “stingy dog.” Tlie old term “dog” was not now, however, always applied to Tom. Although the invari able progress of the four-footed animal itself is —puppy first—dog afterwards—its nominal fellow-being, man, may pass through his dog- hood first—into hispuppyhood afterwards. So was it with Tom. Miss Arabella Jarr, the rich heiress of ol d Jarr, had been "nee Tom’s flame, and she still entertained a sort of sneaking kind ness for her old dancing-school partner; but an apparition ofTom—bo-ringleted, and be-mous- inched—swaggering ahout with half-a-dozen youths of die same kidney, talking loud, laugh- ing louder, and behaving in every respect very unlike well-conducted young gentlemen— shocked her. Miss Arabella liked quiet yo-itig men—site hated “puppies.” Mr. Tom was a “puppy,” and so she excluded him from a chance either for her heart or her fortune. But Tom cared not. He continued to unite the “puppy” with the “jolly dog.” His father died. His mother had done so before. Now ought Tom to have been a “sorry dog,” but he was not—that was to come ai a future stage.— He set industriously to work to make less of the li’tle he inherited—and was pronounced an “un feeling dog.” An<i nrav was uur hero approaching that'fa tal term when tlie appellation of dog which he bad so long borne in st> many senses—which his fin her hail called him when crowing in the innocence of childhood—when frolicking in the carelessness of boyhood —when rushing on de struction with the impetuosity of manhood- must b* exchanged for harsher terms. He got through the puppy stage and hia father’s prop, erty together. The three dozen pairs of boots were marvellously diminished—Ins coats were fashionably cut, yet threadbare—his air had all the swagger of old and none of the lingering re spectability. His quondam friends cut him as a “shabby dog.” He was seldom seen in the day, but nt night he frequented flash billiard rooms—conversed confidentially with markers, nnd with his napless hat slouched over a keen eye, watched for a symptom of “greenness” in any of the company. Sometimes he would single out a stout, jolly- look ng gentleman, with fresh rosy cheeks, a country accent,—aud a sort of clovery smell, with a dash of new milk in it—about him, a “hearty dog” in short, and manage to engage him in pleasant conversation. If he hud not much wit, Tom had sharpness and readiness— the country gentleman was delighted. Tom would put him up to all the sharpers in town— of course he would—although the marker did irreverently stick his tongue in his cheek— champagne corks would fly—a game at billiards be proposed and accepted. “Tom Lidler, that, sir,” whispers the mark er to the country gentleman, “regular top-saw yer—jolliest dog alive.” Now to be occasionally called a “jolly dog” by our equals is very well—but the appellation has a wiilely different meaning coming from our inferiors. Well, the game would go on—the click of the balls responded to by the chink of the gold which sparkled brilliantly upon the tight green c ] 0 ih—below the flaring gas-lights. More champagne—that is for the country gentleman. Tom somehow preferred water just then. High er stakes—more agitated stocks—the country gentleman in a perspiration—Tom cooler and cooler. •‘Damnation. Twenty pounds gone in half an hour. Never pi ay od so ill in all my life— by the way, Mr. Lidler —” But Mr. Lidler. seeing all that had been lost and won likely at tlie moment to change hands, had quietly slipped away. “He is gone sir,” tlie marker would say.— “Never stays after a good hit—knowingest dog alive, Lidler.” But Tom h id not always such luck—or if he had he squandered the proceeds as soon as he clutched them. Mis lace was bloated—his eye bloodshot—liis clothes,seediness struggling with smartness. His haunts became lower and low er, his habits worse and worse. His quondam friends knew him no more. Where lie lived, or how he lived none could tell. Sometimes, however, as lie hurried along nameless by streets in the dusk <>r at night, lie would meet former acquaintances—people whose tavern bills he used to pay—and in humbled, broken accents would implore a small loan a little as sistance—any tlnng. How these applications fared, tbe following dialogue will show : “I say, Hawkins, guess who I met ihe other night when I was going to the Opera?” °‘*Not ttiesbgiitest idea in the world, Wilkins, my boy. None of your creditors, 1 hope-” “No—that fellow, Lidler—and, as I am alive, lie had the impudence to make up to me—of course I would have nothing to do with him— a low hound.” “Oh, of course. I say, poor devil, what a dog’s life he must lead of it—eh?” And Tom, as he had always been called a dog of some sort, did lead it dog’s life. At length he mustered up courage, and de termined to make one last effort to reirieve his fallen fortunes. Miss An be]la Jarr was still a maiden heiress—Hawkins was a suitor for her hand. “If once [ could get on my legs again,” soldo- quized Tom, “I feel I could be an honest man. I have sinned, but I have suffered—Arnb-lla may pity me yet. and pity is akin to love. Yes, I’ll make the dash—old Jarr was my old friend —I’ll try it.” So Tom furnished himself up as well as ho could, and sent in his card to the domicile of the Jarrs. Miss Arabel le whs knitting Berlin wool, and Hawkins was making love after hia fashion—ihat is, talking nonsense—but Arabel la liked love making after any fashion. “Mr. Thomas Lidler,” she said, reading the card. For a moment something like hesitation came over her features. “ ’Tis five years since I saw him,” she mur mured. “You would not know him, he’s turned such an ugly hound; besides, quite disreputable,” said Mr. Hawkins, carelessly. Miss Arabella tossed the card into the fire. “Not at home.” Then both peeped out of the window to see the unfortunate Tom retire. “Did you ever see such ‘a hang-fog look’ ns that, my dear Miss Jarr?” questioned ihe lover. “Never,” replied the loved one. Though well nigh hopeless, Tom d< tnrminod to catch at one straw more. Mis-- Jarr would do nothing for him for love, would old Jarr do any thing for old friendship—lor pit v? Tom wrote a dismal, penitential letter to the (now) retired oil-merchant. It was straight way deposited where the card had been con signed before. “The fawning spaniel,” exclaimed old Jarr; “lie used to cut me when he dashed about in his cab.” ‘•An ill-conditioned cur,” said Hawkins, the bridegroom. “I always thought be was an impudent pup py,” chimed in Arabella, the bride. What became of Tom for several years thereafter is not well known. An old acquaintance put the question to Haw kins. “How the devil should I know,” answered that gentleman; “he went to the dogs long ago.” Alas, poor Tom! he had never been from, the dogs. He was found half dead upon a door-step, and Wilkins’ footman drove him off for an idle dog. Could he find no place to lie down at but their door. At length be died in a ditch—like a dog. An inquest was held, and Hawkins was on thejury. Tho verdict was brought in, “Death from exposure and starvation.” “Ab,” said Hdwkins to the coroner and liis fellow-jurymen, “I knew him once when he was a gay man on town—nothing but dash, and glitter, and show—spent hundreds in white kid gloves, and Eau de Cologne. Well, well, those were the times—but every dog has his day.” On Tom’s tombstone was written BEWARE OF THE DOG. Tom, in reality, died of moral hydrophobia. His case is a specimen of the evil we must ex pect to reap alone with the good. There are many dogs usefuland rational—there are a fow mad and noxious. Tom’s was of the latter class. He was a victim to canine influence over the parts of speech—to the general aid in phraseology, furnished by the general and indi vidual peculiarities of the inmates of the ken nel. We have proved tbe rule by the exception— but let no one deem the exception tlie rule.— Our language pays homage to our canine com panions—so may our fortunes and our lives.— Tho Dog-star is the most potent "f its compeers —we have seen the career of the man born un der it. From the Farmer's Cabinet. DIFFICULTY IN CHURNING BUT TER, OBVIATED. The last number of the Cabinet contains an appeal to its editor and readers, on tbe difficul ty of making butter in the winter—which, from its interesting source—“Young Wives”— seems calculated to elicit prompt reply. The following, which appears to embrace the truo principle, and to be conclusive on the subject, is the result of the experience of a noted agri culturist, W. Allen, ofN. Andover,(Mass.)and was published in the New England Farmer of Jan. 14th, 1835;— “Having thought much on the subject, and experienced all the uncertain resulis of which others complain, I have been led to the con clusion—which experiments have confirmed— that there is a certuin degree of heat, could it be ascertained, to which the cream might be raised, which would ensure a quick process r tbe formation and separation of the butter f • ■ the whey or milk, at tlie same time presi the quality of the butter, and prevent that ft iness and softness which are the never failing result of long continued churning. “To ascertain the degree of heat necessary to insure a short process, we heated the cream to abojt72 or 73 degrees—this, with heat in the churn, which was scalded with hoi ing wa ter, gave to the cre.'iiu about 75 degrees heat. In six or seven trials, during the months of No vember and December, ihe longest process in churning was twenty minutes, the shortest ten. the butter lias been unifoimly sweet and hard, and in nothing inferior to that made in Octo ber, except its color. The last churning was on the 30th of December last, I attended to the whole process carefully. The cream when first put into the churn, was at 80 de grees—I waited till tlie heat had fallen to 75 degrees, and immediately began ihe operation: the butter was formed and ready to take out of the churn in just ten minutes. By the way, I use, and have for several years, a rocking churn, and think it the best, all th ngs taken into view, that ha» ever been in use in New England. “N, B. Since writing the above, one of my neighijors, hearing of my successful experi ments, called on me to borrow my thermome ter, [the instrument costs about a dollar,] to make a similar experiment. He informed mo that their two last trials to make butter, after churning twenty four hours, had been unsuc cessful. They accordingly prepared the cream as above directed, heating to 75 degrees—the butter came in five minutes—was hard anti good for winter butter.”
