Appearance. This, probably, is not extensively known to Sportsmen, and may be a STIMULUS, to try an Experiment, whereby the Personal Safety of the HUMAN, will go Hand in Hand, with the increased Beauty, of the DoG, SPECIES. This precautionary Remedy, whereby the Mischiefs of a DISEASE, for which NO CURE is yet ascertained, may be of such momentous Benefit, that the COMPILER hopes it will have its due Appreciation. To explain how the Worm is situate, a PLATE is given of the Dog's Tongue, with the WORM in its natural State, and also after Extraction.

The COMPILER has now brought his Labours, to a Conclusion. If He has concentrated a Variety of Materials, and so arranged them, as to Entertain the SPORTSMAN, or been enabled to give a Hint to the NATURALIST; that has before escaped his Enquiries, and superior to ALL; if his SETTLED SENTIMENT, respecting the UTILITY, of WORMING DOGS; should, by its Adoption, preserve ONE HUMAN BEING, from the deadly Ravages of HYDROPHOBIA; He shall experience the most consoling Reflections. FAVOURED he has largely been, by an indulgent PUBLIC, in THEIR SANC

TION, of his FORMER VOLUMES, and his SENSE of that OBLIGATION, is too PER

SONALLY GRATIFYING, TO BE EVER FORGOTTEN.

THE END.
