THE LIP-BITING CASE.
TO THE EDITOR. Sir, —Your 'correspondent, “Michael Hart,” I think, calls for another comment. Ho should remember there are men (possibly like himself), who are equally ready to defend others who cannot,directly speak or act for themselves. The best of cur magistrates and judges are, but men, and when acting, alone can the more possibly make a mistake, and all men, I believe, -are subject to criticism, and perhaps it js well being so. I believe, also, that Mr Beethoan did what he thought right at the moment, but reviewing matters he might just likely use more severity in such a, case-, and I really think the majority would say that such a sentence, -comparatively speaking, is insufficient to stamp out such canine-Hke doings.—l am, etc., BRITISH.
