SAVAGE ACT — On Thursday night some wretches poisoned a most valuable Newfoundland dog, belonging to Mr. Philpot, pawnbroker, Bermondsey-street. The animal, when discoverd by its master, was foaming at the mouth, and writhing to and fro in the extremity of agony, and died in about an hour after. This is the second faithful animal lost by Mr. Philpot through the same diabolical means within the last two months. They were kept for the safety of his premises, and on the former occasion the shutters of his shop were taken down, the gas-lamp directly over his door being first extinguished, by cutting away the pipe, and several articles of value in jewellry and plate carried off through a cut pane of glass. Mr. Philpot has had the dogs opened, and large portions of arsenic were found in the stomach of each. The savage act is perpetrated by throwing the poison, thickly covered with grease, within the reach of the animal, which is swallowed without resting on the palate.
