Instincts Of the Tiger.

In a work entitled Browns Anecdotes
we see it stated that on a certain occasion

while visiting the stupendous cavern of
Elophanla, discovered a tigers whelp in
one of the obscure recesses of the edl6ce.
DESTROYS of kidnapping the cub, with
out encounterng the fury of its dam.
they took it up hastily and cautiously
and relrea,ed. Being left entirely al lib
erty, and extremely well fed, the tiger
grew rapidly, appeared tame and fond
ling as a dog, and in every respect en-
tirey dome<ticated. A, length, having
attained vast size, Notwithstanding its
apparent gentleness, it began to inspire
terror by its tremendous powers Of doing
mischief to a piece of raw meat, dripping
with blood, which fell in its way. 1t is
to be observed that, up 10 that moment,
it had been studiously kept from raw an
imal food. The instant, however, it dip>
ped its tongue in blood, something like
madness seemed to have seized the an.
imal-a destructive principle, hitherto
dormant, was awakened-it darted fierce.

tore it with fury 10 pieces, and growing

Treating on a Trade.

Some years since, when money was
scarce and almost everything was done
in the way of trade, man named Jones
went into the grocery and dry-goods store
of Mr.. Brown, and called for darnng
needle, and offered in exchange an egg.
After receiving the needle, Jones said
Come sir, amt you goin' u treat!'
What, on the trade?'
Certainly, trades trade, lie, it be big
or little
well, what will you takes'
"A glass Of wine
The wine was poured out, when the
sponge said
Would it be asking too much to re-
quest you to put an egg in this wine
I'm very fond of egg and wine'
Appalled, by the meanness, Brown took
the identical egg which he had received
in pay for the needle, and handed it TO
his customer, who in breaking it into
the wine glass, discovered that /, con-
tained double yok.
Look here said he, don't you think
you ought to give me another needle q
You see this is a double egg!

He's None the Worse for That

What though the homespun suit he wears,
Best suited to the sons of toll
What though on the coarsest food he fares,
And tends the loom or tills the soil
Wha; though no gold leaf gilds the tongue,
Devoted to congenial chat
If right prevails, and moi the Wrong.
The man is none the worse for that.
What though within his humble cot
No costly ornament is seen
What though his wife possesses not
Her Satin gowns of black and green
What though the merry household band
Half naked fly to ball and bat
If conscience guides the heart and hand,
The man is none the worse for that.
True worth is not thing ofdress-
OF splendor, wealth, or classic lore
Would that these trappings we loved less,
And clung to honest worth the more
Though pride may spurn the toiling crowd,
The faded garb, the napless hat,
Yet God and Nature cry aloud
The man is none the worse for that.

AN EXTENSIVE BAKE.-We hope the
following from the Ne Hburyport Herald,
will find place in every newspaper in
the country. 1t is no fancy sketch; we
have ourselves witnessed enough to con-
vince us that 'such things are:'-
'We once heard of fashionable young
lady in the metropolis, who was led to
the hymehlal altar by a thrifty Broad
Street merchant. He casually expressed
a wish, one day, that some brown bread
might be baked. The girl in the kitchen
was ordered 10 bake the bread. She knew
her duty, but at The same time knowing
that her mistress did not know hers,
simply enqulred how much meal she
should bake. The lady hesitated mo-
ment, but the enquiry must be answered
-"abous three pecks of each kind she
said would be sufficient" Abigail went
at it, and the next morning the gentle
man had specimen Of twenty seven
loaves Of brown bread, made by the d>

American Horsemen.

a very Interesting anecdote has been
communicated 10. us by a letter recently re-.
ceived front Rome. llaly. appears that
MIR. Cass, our Charge d'Affairs TO Kone,
was one day ditiiog with several others, IN
company OF "A French colonel of Dragons.
The conversation turned upon the French
Army, and Cass remarked, that the French
Infantry was justly celebrated, but that the
Cavalry was no better than that OF other
countries. The Frenchman, pIqued, asked
what lie meant by il; 10 which Cass replied
that they were not so well drilled, aud were
not such good horsemen. The Colonel
further persisted in asking what he (Cass)
meant by DOT being such good horsemen ?
Cass cooily answered, that he meant tor IN
stance, that none of them would dare 10 fol-
low him where he would go. The Colonel
offered him bet of 1000 francs on that,
which Cass accepted. On the following
day, Cass called at the Cplonel's on horse
back, for ride, he having his usual horse,
of no remarkable qualities, while the Colonel
had provided himself with an Arabian horse,
of well known qualities. They rode togeth-
er an hours distance from Rome, Cass con-
versing on indifferent subjects, but never al
luding TO the conversation OF the previous
day. Ii was towards evening when they
again entered the city, and the Colonel be-
gan TO think thar Cass had forgotten the
wager. Cass led the way to the Place CIV
lIa, where pedestrians and riders frequent at
that hour. 1t leads up a graded, sloping
hill, and on the side there is parapet 1-2
feet in width. When Cass arrived there he
spurred his horse up 10 it, and got on this
parapel, proceeding on 1t calmly several
hundred PAGES, without looking around, and
then lesped off and turned round. The
Colonel, when he arrived at the parapet with
his Arabian steed, hesilated, and finally con-
ciuded il was best not 10 follow. Cass re-
turned 10 him, simply saying, 'You see
told you yesterday you would not follow
where | would dare 10 ride, and then sroke
again on Indifferent subjects. The French
man sent him on the following day, the 5000
francs, which Cass at once made over TO an
Hospital. This is certainly good account
of young Cass; but there is no knowing
what an Irish Dragoon would have done.

True LONELINESS.

She who thinks a noble heart
Better than q noble mein;
Honors virtue more than art,
Though It's less in fashion seen
Whatsoe'er her fortune be,
She's the bride, the wife for me.
She who learns that inward grace
Far surpasses outward show;
She who values less the face
Than the charm the soul Can throw !;
Whatsoever her fortune be,
That's the bride, the wife for me.
She who knows that heart requires
Something more than lips of blue,
That when loves brief rose expires,
Love itself dies with il too
Whatsoe'er her fortune be,
That's the bride, the wife for me.
