MONDAY EVENING, JULY 12
Dogs and Default.?Ao ingenious observ
er of things in general has traced an unexplain
ed oooaectiou between the default on the July
interest of the Virginia and Tennessee debts,
sod the immense number of dogs in those
8tatea?averaging three to each voter, it is
Raid. The idea is fantastio enough, but not
wholly without reason. A State that supports
three dogs to every male adult could hardly be
expeoted to meet all other current expenses io
tight times like these. Persons who, with Mr.
Bergh, believe in the free multiplication and
perpetuation of the canine race, doubtless think
the money well expended, and that creditors
should whistle for their July interest, while the
dogs replenish the earth. \Ves-h;:uld not charge
Ibis failure on the superabundant dogs of Vir
ginia and Tennessee, but rather on the general
financial debility from which so many of the
States, with most of their inhabitants, are suf
feren at present At the same time it is worth
noting that the poorer people are the more
dogs they own, as a rule; and the converse ol
the proposition is undoubtedly true. The enor
mous exoess of dogs in parts of the South is
one evidenoe of the poverty which rules among
ihe people there. Joking aside, it is indisput
able that the dog-raising mania of Virginia,
TeDQessea and North Carolina has been deadly
to the wool-growing interest in those States.
Id that sense they have been made poor by
iheir canine indulgences.?N. Y. Journal of
