Oh, Doctor, oh, Doctor! And the results of it You need not go exclusively 'to France' to look at them. They are too visible in the so-called 'Social Hierarchies, and sublime gilt Doggeries, sltcred and secular, of all Modern Countries! Let us be silent, my friend."
You know the kind of street Main Street always used to be in our section half plank-road and turnpike, and the rest mud-hole, and a lot of stores and doggeries strung along with false fronts a story higher than the back, and here and there a decent building with the gable end to the public; and a court-house and jail and two taverns and three or four churches.

Be busy, ye Cossack doggeries; return with news, not with mere grime and marks of blood on your mouths! Evening of the 24th, Cossacks report that Friedrich has got to Damm Mill; has hold of the Bridge there; and may be looked for, sure as the daylight, to-morrow.
