ErREsizAr ON or A LION "A most
novel operation was performed at South
Boston, Yesterday afternoon. Francis
Algcr, Esq, has in his possession at his
residence in South Boston, Il lion ubcu u,
SIX months old, Of the species known as
the American Lion, and brought short
time since from South America. This
lion, Ms II has increased in size, has
grown quite fsrocious, and il was drem-
Ell advisable to remove his claws, which
were very sharp, to prevent him from
doing injury TO those who nigh, up.
proach his cage. To accomplish THE
end, DR.. Charles I. Jackson yesterday
administered ether 10 him. At ist he
was quite cross and snappish, aud some
difficulty was experienced al getting the
sponge to his nose. Al last, however, n
soothing impression was made, nnd ailes
a pound and halt had been minis,er,d,
he became perfectly dociie, md siert
quietly for twenty minutes. In the mean
time his claws were removed with
pair Of sharp pincc!e, aud when hls Ii
onship awoke from his trance he found
himself deprived Of his most formidable
weapons Of defence. The lion soon re.
covered his wonted agility, and this
morning was as lively as ever. IL is
probable that it will be necessary TO cut
of his teeth before he will be consider
ed a safe pet - Tyavsiiey, Of Tuesday.
