The tieress did rot forero heri intent. shc

The tigress did not forego her intent. She
made spring at the keeper past the ele-
phant, but Just at this moment the sagac-
ious animal observing, it would seem, the
danger ofhis kceper,let out his trunk with
the celebrity Of an arrow from the bow and
pitched the tigress TO the farther end OF
the circus.
|, A wonderful hurley hurley was now
kicked up. All the monkies and balloons
scampered up the rafters, and the glaring
eyes Of the enraged ugress struck dread
into the whole, except the elephant, who
folded up his trunk with neatness after
his feat, and the lion who sat in his cage
on his hips like dog, looked on with great
dignity and composure. The keeper now
ran ont from behind the elephant, and ap-
preaching his trunk, uttered certain words,
which the sagHcious animal understood
with 80 much correctness. The elephant
unroled his trunk; the keeper got astrldee,
and in a moment was elevated TO the back
of his preseryer.
In the mean time the tigress had recov-
cred from the toss she had got, and made
new preparations 70 spring upon the keep
or, who was upon the back Of the elephant.
The elephant saw, and took prObOcis meas
ures accordingly. Again the tigress
sprang upon the man and again the ele.
phant nterposed his trunk and tossed the
tigress a second time TO the farthesl eXtrem-
ity ofthe circus. The pitch wounded the
side of the tigress. and finding there was
no use in trying further to tap the jugular
OF the keeper, she sneaked into her cage
with what she had got.
While this business was going on, the
tiger hImsulfhad begun 10 look round, and
see what fun could be picked mp. On
raising bis head from the lama, the first
thing tbat struck him was the lion sitting
in his cage with great dignity and uncon-
Germ. The tiger showed his teeth the
lion slightly shook his name. The tiger
drew back on his hind legs TO make q
spring the lion rose mp with dignity and
shot fire from his eyes.
The tiger sprung at th@cago with great
fury, forcing one of his claws, IN between
two ofthe bars aud at the same instant the
lion made grab at the tigers fore foot
caught 1t firmly between his tusks pulled
the whole leg into the cage, and held hinl
there cntil the keeper saw the opportunity
| flung himself from the back oi the elephant
/ rnn with his moose to the tiger and secur'
! cd him in moment.
After this was accomplished, the hor
| generously let go bis hold, and the keep
er dragged tho other to his cage ani se'
cured them both And thus by a s'ncu
lar train ofcircumjtances, in which the IN
stiuct aud trnnk of the elephant, no less
than the teeth and temper Of the lion, b.
Conspicuous part, did the poor keeper ge
rescued from the jaws ofthe tiger and T..
gress.

THE DYING YEAR.

oh there's beauty in the dying year
'Tis sweet AT quiet eventide TO gaze
Upon the fading hills, when the dim haze
Hangs like pail above old Autpmn's bier.
There is breeze amid the leaves! IL swells,
Far in the solemn wood paths, like the peal'
of music DER tlfc waters, HaTk il steals
Sweet, as the distant sound Of evening bells.
IL ia the voice Of Autumn l--the low dirge
Sung mournfully within his ruined halls,
II stirs the fallen leaves, and sadly falls
On the hushed air, like whispers from the surge
The summer birds have sought SUMMER shore
They fingered till the cold, cold wind went in
And withered their green homes, THEN
merry din
10 mingling with tho riyulets song no moro.
Rich flowers have perished on the silent Garth
Blossoms Of valley and Of wood that gave
a fragrance TO the wind, have found grave
Upon the scentless turf that gave them birth.
Pale, faded year thy dying hour hath come
Oh! there are crowds, that with joyous
brow
Welcomed thy birth, whose mirthful voices
Are hushed in the long silence Of the tomb

THE MoTaER's GRAVE.

HAnd that same dew which sometimes on the
buds
Was wont to swell, like round & orioni pearls
Stood within the pretty infants eyes
In tears" SuARsPEARE.
Look, sister sweet, upon that hallow'd stone
We stand upon spot of lovo and fear
For there is laid n heart, the fondest one
That over left its children weeping here
There sleeps our mother in the silent dust,
by all our sorrow, all our love unmoved,
Sleeps, till the solemn summons of the Just
Bids her awake, TO meet the God she loved
] saw her fainting on her bed Of pain
! saw her like the leaves of aulpmn lie
1 saw her strive To smile, but smi1e in vain
And then I--no, dared not see her dio !
Then camo the bitter pageant of the grave 90
The fearful hoarsc, the following, weeping
crowd
saw-'twas but one look--thc plumngc wave
And longd TO slumber with her in hci
shroud.
Thou King of kings, who on tho babes did
smile,
Aud take the little ones upon Thy knee,
Guide us through earth and all It's snares a
whilo--
Then take us, innocent, TO rest with thee
Sweet sister, bend no more on earth thine eyes
No more weep idly on that siIen, stone
But fix thy gaze, thy soul upon those skies
There shall we go-ior there our mothers
gone.

. SINGULAR PRESERVATION.

A few days ago very amusing and
somewhat dangerous occurrence took place
at a small circus in the Bowery, ir which
here is un exhibition of wild beasts, such
rs elephants, tigers, lions, &c. The keep
Cr ofthc collection one day went 10 dinner
as usual, under the impression that his
tour-footed actors were quite snug in their
cages. twas not SO. The cage that con
tained tiger and a tgress, was IN state
Ofdecripitudc, 40 that the fcrocious couple
broke loose. II their keeper was to eat
his bcefsteak, Mr.. and Mrs. Tiger thought
they ought 70. have something fresh too.
Accordingly. being free as air, they cas-,
their eyes round the habiiation, as a gor-
mandiser would in a cook shop, and so Sc
locted a fine foreign animal, called the
Lama, on which TO dine upon. AT the ap-
prooch of the tigering couple the poor La
ma got scared and set up grunt. II
would not do. One of the tiger family
1--WE have tiger families elsewhere) sprung
at his throat brought him down, and tapped
his iugular vein in twinkling. Here both
tho animals slipped away with great per-
severance, as fast and as cordially as the
cobler and his wife hung over cider bar
rel in New Jersey which they soon emp
tied Of It's contents. The heart of the poor
lama was soon drunk dry by these two fc.
line topers.
In the mean time the keeper had finish
cd his dinner, drank his glass, and was
putting away at the butt end of a Spanish
segar, when he entered aud found the work
that had been going on. lie was alarmed
at first, but his personal courage did not
ooze away, as Acres did in the play. lie
yeuiured into the ring with moose to fling
over the heads of the two ierocisus ami
mails while they were sucking out the
last drop Of blood from the poor lama The
iigress finished her rcpast sooner than her
mate. turned round while the keeper was
in the very act ofcntching them, and made
preparations TO spring upon him, in the
same way that cat does when she sees a
mouse. The keeper felt the danger Of his
situation, but with great presence ofmind,
he made retreat behind his elephant, who.
from the other side Of the circus was look.
