attempt II an Eagle TO deUour a boy
a very singular occurrence happened the
week beiore last. in the Parish of st.
Ambrose, about nine miles from this CT
ty. Two boys, the one seven and the o.
Their FIVE years old. amused themselves
in an adjoining field. try ing to reap while
their parents we're at dinner. A large
eagle Don came sailing over them, and
with a swoop attempted TO seize the eld-
est, but luckily missed him. The bird,
not az all di~mayed, sat on the ground at
a short distance, and IN a few moments
repeated The attempt. The bold little
fellow deieudtd himself against his fierce
antagonist, with the sickle be had very
fortunately in his hand, and when the
bird rushed upon him he struck at il.
The sickle entered under the left wing,
and the blow having been given stroug-
~ went through the ribs, and passing
through the liver, proved instantly fatal.
he eagle was afterwards sold to Mr..
Chasseur, who has stuffed it and placed
il IN his muSeu,N where il may now be
seen. II IS the Ring tailed or Russian
Eagle. The wings expand upwards of
Six feet Its stomach was opened, and
found entirely empty. The little boy did
not receive a scratch. Had the eagle
seized him. its falcons. which are fun
common sti ength, and about an inch and
a half long, must have lacerated him
dreadfully. There is little doubt, with
out the bird was much weakened by hun.
ger, that a blow or two from its beak
would have torn out his eyes, and with
the instinct peculiar TO birds of prey,
broken in a moment the thin parts OF the
skull about tue eye, and almost Instantly
destroyed his life.
Several Eagles of this species breed
in the high Capes about Cap Tourmente,
below ST Joachim In the fall they feed
chiefly upon sea fowl and the carcases
of fish. In the summer months they are
destructive TO poultry, often carving off
a large Turkey or goose in their claws,
from the barn doors.
The present is the first well authentica-
ted instance OF their attacking children
10 this country, which has come to our
knowledge. -

HENRY CLAY.

HENRY Clay was the son OF a BaptIsi
minister and was born in Hanover couu-
ty, Virginia, on the 18th of April, 1911.
lie inherited nothing but the Inestlmable
privileges of an American citizen. Al
an early age he was placed in the office
of MIR. Tmsley, Clerk Of the hish court
OF ~chancery. In this situation he gave
such proofs of uncommon capacity that
he acquired the friendship and patron
age Of chancellor Wythe and Governor
Brooke; and by their advice be studied
the law. Immediately after his sdmis.
sion to the bar, he proceeded TO Ken
lucky, spent some further time IN study,
and then opened an office. He was
soon in full practice; and he went into
the Kentucky convention for forming a
new constitution, and exerted himself
both in aud out of it, to procure the
abolition of slavery. ln a few years he
became speaker in the Legislature of
Kentucky; and to his experience To
that office. he and his country were in
debted for bis unexampled success as
speaker Of the House of Representa-
tives in congress While yet a young
man, be was twice chosen to serve for
short periods IN the Senate Of the Uni
ted States. In the chair of the House
OF Representatives, Mr.. Clay did not
excuse himself from the Investigation
and discussion of every great question.
In 1914 he was withdrawn from Con
gress to a new station, that of foreign
minister; and he bore an important and
honorable part in the prudent and able
negotiation of peace at Client, and
subsequently in the formation of a com.
mercial convention with Grea. Britain.
On his return To the United States, he
was offered by Mr.. Madison the mission
TO Russia, and a seat In the Cabinet;
both Of which he successfully declined.
Mr. Monroe offered him a Department
and the Mission to Great Britain, which
he also declined. He still preferred that
great theatre of bis triumphs, the popu-
lar assembly of the nation, and as be
once expressed himself, ITO draw some
what longer in the traces of the profess
SION" lie came forward early and
fearlessly as the advocate for the recog-
milton ofSouth American independence;
and there are few names more intimate
ly and happily associated throughout this
hemisphere with the great and glorious
boon to seven rising nations than that
Of Henry Clay. Equally s~oasonable
and bold were his exer'ions in favor of
domestic industry, and it IS but just to
say that be has done more cor it thar any
other man living. Ever free and untir-
ing in the cause o famerica and of man,
he united with our Webster in sending
across the Atlantic the voice of comfor
and encouragement to the Greeks. IL
1926 Mr.. Adams was elevated to the
elective seat; and to the illustIious
lawyer, legislator. and statesman of the
West, he did no less than each of his
two immediate predecessors had done,
/ he offered him a seat in the Cabinet,
which Mr. Clay accepted.
