On Wednesday last Herr Dfiesbach, che
celebrated famer of Wild beasts, received a,
GAINESVILLE a telegraphic despatch to come
to- Cincinnati and bring with ubitn bis pei
the great royal Brazilian tiger, oneef the
most sierociols animals ever tanned. Herr
accordingly took double berth on the
steamer Julia Dean, puaing down the
names on the clerks book IttHerr Dries
bach, first berth. Col. Alexander (tbs name
Herr gives the tiger) second berth Herr
remarked tbatthe Col. was queer old fel-
low a ccustom ed TO sleeping outw and had
withaI a peculiar fancy would sleep
on nothing bat straw. The chan, bsrms aid
took away the bed and replaced it with a
full supply of that article. Business, and
preparation to start went on. lust before
the last bell; Herr and the tiger made ihsir
appearance In the ca bin, opposite the state-
room door. The clerk, hearing an unusual
stir inthe ca bin, opsised his Office door and
looking down the cabin, spied the Eglaring
eyes and savage body CT His RoyaI Higb-
ness. He recognized Herr, but did not rel
ish thesappearance of Col. Alexander. Still
he did not feel like ordering the party a.
shore. He felta repugnance to that under
taking, and concluded to allow things 80
take their own way. Herr unlocked his
state-room. Herr satisfied the clerk and
others that his pet was entirely under bis
command, and minated to the sbar-keeper
that bottle of brandy would bs relished by
His Royal Highness, for himself, which
was broug into the state-roOm by the
trsm bling waiter, who had forgotten to
bring with The liquor the requisite accom-
paniment--pure water. As q punishment
to him, Herr told the tiger to iake corner
which be did. and stepping quickly out,
locked the astonished boatman in, while be
went for the water. The man was 80
frightened that he spoke not. neither did he
move, till Herr returned and stated to him
that he need have no feau as the tiger
would keep his place till he ordered him to
rise. When night came, Herr, locked his
state-room. bid his majesty good night, and
went to bed in the upper berth, aud the
*happy couple" had a good and peaceful
nights rest. On arriving at our wharf,
Col. Alexander showed his appreciation OF
the boat by giving two or three growls, in-
terpreted as approbatory by Herr, and the
party sought hack, which, when found,
happened to be driven by son Of the En-
eraldI Isle. AT first sight, the driver utter
ly refused to take the sbasts' but was per-
fectly willing that Driesbach should be ac.
commodated. His fears were aIlayed, how
ever, by the tiger jumping inside, and he
drove to Dennison's Hotel bat Dennison
resclutely refused to allow His Royal Maj
esty to take rooms at his house, and Dries-
bach was obliged to take rooms for his
friend at Woods Museum, while he rsturn-
ed to Dennison's the nearest and best place
he could find.' We; presume that such an
instande Of travel has never before been re-
corded. .--C Cincinnati COMMERCIAL 81 ga5zE

though it is better to have it under cover when
stationary, especially during stormy very hot
