A Tiger Story--Narrow Escape.

Mr.. Charles P. Davis, (son of Capt. Char.
les NJ. Davis, of this city, recently returned
from voyage 10 the Easr Indies, met with a
most remarkable adventure, while lying in
the river Hoogly, last fall. He was attach
ed TO the ship John Merrick, Capt Stevens,
bound from Calcutta to London. The ship
had dropped down to large island not far
from its mouth, called Sagua, or Tiger Is
land-and having been informed that deer
were to be found quite numerous on the is
land. Davis. with The ships pilot, the skipper
If The licbrer one other white man, and four
natives vent ashore 10 hunt for Them, each
armed with gun. After an hours ramble,
,bev rot sight of the heads and anters of a
ommber of deer, which were feeding on the
onposite side of hollow, behind lhicket
or Jungle Of low brush wood. Concealed
by this Jungle, the hunters were creeping
stealhily in single file, towards the game,
when Davis was startled by the cry Of I'll
GER from one of the natives, and turned
his head just in time TO see the glaring eyes
of monstrous Bengal tiger, that with claws
outspread and mouth wide open, was coming
down upon him, having made flying leap
from the contiguous jungle. Instantly the
jaws of the fierce animal were closed
upon his arm near the shoulder, but for
tunately the stock Of the gun was taken
into its mouth in connection with the arm,
whereby the limb was in measure saved
from harm.

PULASKI GUARDs.-M Many of our readers, no
doubt, distintly remember the creditable appear
ance of this corps in city two years ago,
under the command of Capt. A J. Wright
The Boston Traveller, in abiding to the en-
campment at Newtonville on Wednesday and
Thursday, says there was none that made a
more favorable impression, than the Pulaski
Guards of South Boston, Capt. A. J. Wright
They had in their ranks 43 guns, and this with
their plain but yet very neat uniform, their ex-
cellent discipline, and their admirable knowl-
edge of military tactics, made them one of the
finest appearing companies on the plain.
We are gratifed to learn of the continued
prosperity of this corps as they have, we think,
pursued course worthy of reward. There is
fine moral tone in the company which is too
seldom found. By vote of the company some
months since all profane language in their Ar
mory is strictly forbidden, and offenders are
always reproved. THIS restriction has done
away with swearing in the Armory, and its
good effects are also beyond the regulations of
the corps. During the last three years also, no
liquor has been brought into the Armory, nor
has any been drank at any of the festive occa-
sions held in the Hall. reading room for the
use of the members has been opened at the
expense of the company, and the nucleus for a
valuable library has also been procured.

The FISHERY QUESTION. The seizure of the
Union in the Calf of St. Lawrence-says the
Boston Post-if the vessel were three miles or
more from the shore, will bring matters to an
issue. Our right to fish in this great gulf or
inland sea, is as perfect as our right to indie
pendence. This gulf is expressly named in the
1883 treaty as one of the places wherein we
had right to fish was acknowledged and in
1918 the British Secretary, Bathurst, admitted
that our right to fish here was of permanent
character Now if the Union has been seized
fishing more than three miles from the shore
that portion being renowned in the treaty of
lSlS-the sooner the matter is attended to the
better.
On the other hand the St. Sohn Courier of
July 81, says
1t is generally asserted and believed by the
press of the United States, that the claim now
attempted to be enforced by the cruisers of
Great Britain, is doubtful or disputed one !;
that the question is, as to the meaning of a
treaty, whether three miles from the shore
means three miles from nearest land, or three
miles from lire drawn from headland to head
land along the coast.
Now, although the enforcement of this lat
ter meaning has for some years been insisted
on by the colonies more interested in the fish
cries. it is not known that the imperial govern
menl has given decision upon the matter,
and 1t certainly IS not to enforce any such
claim that the present fleet of small craft has
been sent TO cruise upon the fishing grounds.

Death of Mr.. RantOul.

We regret to announce the decease of Rob
ert Rantoul, Jr., Representative to Congress
from the Cd district of Massachusetts. His
disease, which was malignant erysipelas, ter
minated fatally on Saturday night The fol-
lowing despatch to the Post, dated at Wash
ington, Sunday
Hon. Robert Rantoul, Jr., died last evening.
He was in his usual health up 10 Monday, the
I'd inst, and had been for some days previous
to that time engaged in laborous investigation
on the matters in dispute between Great Britain
and the United States, growing out OF the nor
thern fisheries. At this time he had upon his
forehead what he considered small bile which
did not attract attention nor prevent his beng
in the House on Monday and Tuesday. On
Wednesday morning, at break FAST considerable
inflammation of an erysipelas character was
noticed around the bile, and he was according
ly prevailed upon to remain in his room and
procure medical advice. During the remain
der of Wednesday and Thursday the disease
made no perceptible progress. On Thursday
despatch was sent informing Mr.. Rantoul's
family of his illness. On Friday morning he
conversed freely with me and appeared much
better, and expected i'll the course of a few
days TO resume his duties in the house. On
the evening of Friday he became much worse,
the erysipelas spreading over the whole face,
and his brain being also somewhat Affected
On Saturday morning Mrs. Rantoul arrived.
Mr.. Rantoul knew her perfectly and made ma
ny inquiries of her, though his mind continual
ly wandered On Saturday evening an effu-
sion took place, one side of the body became
paralytic and much swollen, with inability to
speak. From this time he sunk rapidly, and
expired at half past ten o'clock on Saturday
evening.
The remains of Mr.. Rantoul, in charge of
the Massachusetts delegation, aud accompanied
by Mrs. Rantoul, left Washington at O'Clock
Sunday afternoon, for Beverly.
Mr.. Rantoul was,-as we learn from the
Traveller,-the only son of Robert Rantoul of
Beverly, who yet lives, at an advanced age
He was born on the 18th of August, 1905, and
of course he would have been AZ years of age
on Friday next, if he had lived. He was
graduated at Cambridge in 1896, on which oc-
casion he delivered the Valedictory POEM
He was admitted to the bar in in 1928, and in
1888 became a resident of Gloucester. He
had an active mind, was an original thinker,
and possessed good talents as writer and
forensic debater From early life, he devoted
himself, with unusual ardor, to the pursuit Of
politics, his sympathies although his father
was federalst of the old school-having
thrown him into the ranks of the democratic
party. His first public address as politician,
was in defence of Gen. Jackson's veto of the
bill for rechartering the I. S. Bank.

BowDoIN COLLEGE,

Brunswick, AUG. 9, 1852.
MEssRs. EDITORS AT a meeting of the
Granite Club of Bowdoin College, holden on
Saturday, 9TH inst, Hon. Henry Tallman, of
Bath, was present by previous invitation, and
addressed the members of the Club He COM
menced by defining the difference between the
fundamental principles of the two great politi-
cal parties, tracing their history from the ear
liest period of their distinctive existence, and
showing conclusively that the main object of
the Democrotic party has ever been, as it now
is, to secure and protect the rights of man,
while the chief ends of whiggery and the high
est objects which that party has ever proposed
TO attain, have been the protection and patron
age of the moned and commercial interests
lie passed on TO comparison of the vigor and
firmness which have characterized the admin
istration of the general government, in demo-
cratic hands, with the timidity and almost SER
Witty, that have invariably stamped that adj
ministration, when it has fallen into the con-
troll of the federal party. After touching up
on many other points of interest, and testifying
to the high qualifications of General Pierce for
the first office in the gift Of the American peo-
pie, and the thoroughly democratic and ma
tional views of his distinguished associate on
the ticket, he concluded, by predicting that
successful issue in the coming election, of
of which both our own unanimity and the dis
tracted condition of the opposite party, afford
so complete assurance. Mr.. Russell, of Bow
doinham, followed him, addressing the meet
ing with spirit and energy. Able letters were
read, from Gov. Hubbard, Hon. E. X. Smart,
Hon. Geo. Shepley, Granville Winthrop, Esq,
and others. The meeting then adjourned with
enthusiastic cheers for Pierce and King.

A D1s1srEREsrED WrrNEss.-The Portsn.o,t

Gazette, speaking of our State election says;
That Gov. Hubbard is the regularly nomi-
mated candidate of the Democratic party, and
for this reason, aside from all other grounds,
should receive the support of Democrats, seems
evident to all believers in and sustainers of
Democratic usages, and that any thing can be
gained by the formation of new party, looks
rather absurd to US at this distance from the
scene of action. If this new party is opposed
to any law of the State. let it operate upon
the Legislature, instead of creating disorgani-
cation in the ranks of the Democratic party at
time, when every consideration of State, Ma
tional and party pride, suggest a spirit of har-
mony, Cancellation and union, and sacrifice of
personal feelings and minor prejudices for the
benefit of the common cause.
