4 Life sared by Dog.-We have. to add to the many instances on record, of the latin fulness and sagacity of this noble animal, one of striking character which occurred during the past week, in the vicinity of this place. On Friday evening last, sometime after dark, a worthy citizen of the adjacent township of Alrace, who loves an ingle side and a ritp Of comfort as well as Tam O 'Shanter himseff!but who had not the good fortune of Tam iu pos sessing grey mare Meg,' was ploddng homeward his weary way, little anticipating the danger.he was about to incur. The cla chan yill had made him canfy.' He stacher- ed whyles.' In short our respectable neighbor was as drunk as lord, and had not proceeded above half mile from town, before he stretch ed himself across the middle of the turnpike road. tO sleep of the fumes of aqua vit@.- While he lay in this dangerous position. the Pottsville stage approached, and must intalli- ply have passed over his body, had it not been for the ssgacity ofa large house dog, which had accompanied his master, and was then watchiOg over his slumhers. As the stage drew. nigh.the dog flew furiously al the horses, and by his barkings turned the leaders from the path. and caused the vehicle to pass harm. lessly by the body ofthe sleeping man. The stage driver. perceiying an object lying in the road which he took fora human being, gave notice of the circumstance directly when he reached town, when some good Samaritan undertook the kind office ofseeking the slum- berer out. and saving him from the dangers oi his position. They found him still asleep up- on the road. and his faithful dog stretched close beside his body Reading (Pa.) Joara- Gl, Dec. 28.
