KEEPING THE POUND.
Sir, —In reply to a letter signed ‘‘Magog,” I may say that the police (according to the new Act) are debarred from holding any other office than that of keeping the peace, clearing the streets of stray cattle, hunting up unregistered dogs, and similar specified duties. If “ Magog” has come all the way from Guildhall to reform the system of impounding cattle at the antipodes, that very tali parly had hotter return to his dear brother Gog, and rub noses over the Lord Mayor’s turtle soup. VISDKX.
