Panther Hunt.

Mr.. Jonathan Walker, of this county,
on the Sth inst, while on hunting ex>
'curson, in company with one of his
Brothers, on Beach Creek, came upon
the tracks of two panthers, which led
through thicket that skirts the stream.
Putting their dogs Qhree in number)
upon the tracks, the brothers parted
and took to the ridges--one on each
side OF the creek. After following for
some time in this way, wolf (proba-
bly, frightened by the doSs) ran from
the thicket past Jonathan, who shot at
and wounded him. Following the tral
of the wounded animal for some dis
tance, he came upon the wolf, torn to
pieces by one of the panthers, which had
been attracted by the smell Of the blood.
The chase of the panther was now re-
newod by Jonathan and the dogs, and
he was shortly discovered Gpon tree,
eagerly eyeing his pursuers. Jonathan
gave him two shots, the last of which
brought him to the ground, when a hard
fight took place between him and the
dogs; but he was eventually overcome,
having received in all, six shots from
Jonalhan's uncrrng rifle. He measu-
red eleven feet from tip To tip.
The brothers having secured the one
went in pursuit Of the other panther
which. at one time they had upon tree
but as their dogs were all put hors dc
combat, they had not the means of keep,
/ ing the animal there, until they go'
within shooting distance. They were
therefore compelled to give up The
F chase.

the culture of a species ol squash that

several of tho western ladies have al
ready obtained beautiful bonnets from

bonnets are formed from the fine glossy

A story OF Olden Ttn,c,

WHEN TURKEYS SMOKED AND GEESE
cHEwED TOBACCO.
BY statute law OF the State OF New
York, from December to April, all per-
sons were prohibited from killing deer,
under penalty of ten dollars, half the
fine going to the complainant, and in
default Of payment, ten iashes upon the
naked back.
A Yankee, passing through the state
of New York, near Albany, in the
month of January. observed a young
Dutchman, from his barn door, squint
ing over his shovel at deer, about thir-
,y PAGES from him, and sohloquizihg
thus
Mine Cot if had mine gun here
and it was not for The law, would have
some teer for mine timer"
.->..-i. -. s..:,., I;ta,
and Immediately shot the deer, and
threw his rifle into the SNOW, unobser>
we'd by the Dutchman, and running up
to him, said,
"Ah, my good fellow, you have been
killing a deer-ior saw you-you shot
him with your shovel"
The Duchman replied
"Mine Cot! did not link mine sho4
vel was loaded. | did not tink il would
60 off, never knew it to 60 off before"
"Well," said the Yankee, you have
killed the deer, and | will go to the jus
tice and complain of you, and make
YOU pay your fine, unless you give me
| the skin and two dollars"
"Ven." said the Dutchman, "though
/ did not tink my tam't old shovel would
go off dat is better den pay ten dollars
SO the bargain was concluded the
Yankee receiving the skin and two dol
lars, left the DutLhman TO take care OF
his venison.
While the Dutchman was taking care
of the venison, and before he had put II
out of the way, another Dutchman
came up and threatened TO complain,
upon which Hans, the shovel shooter,
related all that passed between hlm'
self and the Yankee.
Vanderhausen told Hans he had been
imposed upon; that the Yankee killed
the deer himself. The two Dutchmeh
then agreed to pursue the Yankee, and
to bring him before the justice. and
have him fined.
They soon overlook him and carried
him before the Justice; and Hans ehiet-
ed his complaint pro homo publ'c0j
Whereupon the Justice, after hearing al
the testimony, pros and cons, and Ia
, king the subject matter into cool, sert
ous, and deliberate consideration, came
to the conclusion that the Yankee killed
the deer with a certain instrument cal
led rifle, and that he pay a fine OF ter
dollars. or be whipped ten lashes. The
Yankee chose the latter. The justice
, then ordered the Yankee to be stripped

There being no officer present, the jus
