A Doa’s Broken Heart. —Dr Calderwood, Professor of Moral Philosophy in the University of Edinburgh, has, in In’s work rcently published, entitled “The Relations of Mind and Brain,” the following story of a dog :—A dog belonging to a United Presbyterian minister killed the fowls while the family were at church,and buried them Jin the garden. The bodies were found. The dog was taken to the garden, and immediately confessed his guilt. His master took him to his library, and, having shut the door, began a reprimand after this fashion :—‘What a thing you have done in murdering the hens! You are a minister’s dog and should have been an example to other dogs, instead of doing such as this. Then this is the Sabbath day, and the deed is all the worse on account of the day on which it has been done.’ Thus admonished, the dog was put ont of the door, and the door shut. Next morning he was found dead A veterinary surgeon was consulted, and declared that the dog had died of a broken heart.”
