POMPEY.

This “sad dog” is a “sensible dog,” and must know, that England is by no

means favourable to him or his fellow-creatures. Dogs here are mostly

the property of persons who by “training,” and “working,” and “fighting”

them, drive many of them mad, and render every dog at this season an

object of fear. They have, at present, the right to do wrong to dogs,

and the liberty of making them as brutal as themselves. If a few of

these dog-masters were tied up, as an example to others, dogs might have

rights and liberties. The condition of the lower animals will improve

with the subjugation of the passions in the master-animal, man.
