When l turned around, my host sat
at the table again, slipping his grog as
if nothing had happened.

have never heard her roaring in that
way. Well, we must see after this to-
morrow. 1t would be dangerous Job
tor any man to so near her to-night!!'
Next morning I stood by his side
when he opened the door. Ny first
glance fell upon the tiger covering in
thick brown-red pool She was lick
ing at red spot upon her left flank,
which seemed to have bled profusely,
but with both her powerful forepaws
she clung to deformed and shapeless
mass which bore no likeness to any
thing l had ever seen. The corpse of
a horse, frightfully mutilated, lay close
by, and the whole ground was strewn
with fragments of a horrible appear
ance. My host having examined them
all with intense curiosity, cracked his
whip, and moved straight toward the
tiger.
A hollow menacing warned him off;
the savage creature showed its formid-
able range of long and powerful teeth,
and had lost all signs ef her old tame
ness.
''She is thirsty for more blood, the
Princess Royal is,'' said the French
man. "That is nature, you know
She can't help it, l suppose; and, as
should be 'gneved to kill her, we must
wait till she comes round again.
We had to wait long. After three
days the oldma himself began to doubt
whether she ever would come round
again, was forced to kill her after ali.
When we were thus enabled to ex-
anime at leisure that horrible battle
field, he drew my attention to remnants
Of coat in which the gray color was
still to be distinguished.
''He has had his reward" said the
old man, "though it costs me DEAR
Better than all those majors was my
poor Princess Royal."

NEWSPAPER "PATRoNAGE."-News-
paper 'patronage" is a curious thing
in the estimation of some people. A
man lives near you-never took your
paper-it's too small-don't like the ed
itor-don't like the politics wlis-
gish-too old fogyish-too something
else-yet goes regularly to his neigh
bors and reads it carefully-fnds fault
with It's contents, disputes it's position,
and quarrels with its type. Occasion
ally sees an article he likes-saves two
cents and begs a number. This is
newspaper patronage" ."-Uhca Zsze-

What's Trumps.

There are so many cards to play,
So mrny ways to choose,
In love and politics and war,
That in forwarding our views
With ladies fair, with statesmen wise.
Or men of lesser bumps,
Before we lead our strongest suits,
'TiS well to know what's trumps
Once, worshipping at beautys shrine,
knelt in bondage sweet,
And breathed my vows with eagerness.
And offered at her feet
Nv soul, well stored with Cupids wealth.
A love cemented lump;
A king of diamonds WON the trick
My heart was not trump.
Raving to see my rival win
Upon a single rub,
As he played the deuce with me,
followed with a club
Two days within the station-house.
Rejecting on my sin,
| found, as others may have done.
Clubs very seldom win.
Grown wise by sad experience,
ceased to deal with maids;
shuf1ed youthful follies off,
And turned up jack of spades;
Yet l still find as dust is scarce,
And smaller grow the Jumps,
That though the spades an honest care.
1t is not always trumps.
But in this world of outside show.
Where mammon rules the throng,
To ease the little jolts of life,
And smoothly pass along
To find an antidote for care,
And stern misfortune's pumps,
One card is very sure TO win
Diamonds are aiwsys trumps.

The TELEGAPH AND THE BIBLE
"Canst thou send lightning that they
may go, and say unto thee, Here we
are?"
"Who hath divided a water course
for way for the lightning?''
"The Lord on high is mightier than
the noise of many waters, yea, than the
mighty waves of the sea.''
S'He made decree for the rain, and
a way for the lightning"
''He directed his lightnings unto the
ends of the earth.''
''The lightning cometh out of the
East, and shineth even unto the W est. -
The lightnings enlighten the world -
9 Their line has gone ont through
all the earth, and their acords to the
end Of the acorld."-Psalm XIX, 4.

A HrNDoo's SToRY.-A poor Hin
doc, having been released from the
cares Of this world, and from a scurvy
wife, presented himself at the gate of
Brahma's paradise. "IIave you been
through purgatory?" asked the god
''No, but I have been married." he re-
piled seriously. "Come in, then, it's
all the same" At this moment arrived
another man, just defunct, who begged
Of Brahma's to be permitted to 90 in
also. "Softly, softly! have you been
through purgatory?" "No, but what
of that? Did you not admit, moment
ago, one who had not been there any
more than I?'' "Certainly; but he has
been married.' "Married? Who are
you talking to? l have been married
twice" 90, pshaw!' replied Brahma;
''get away! Paradise is not for fools!!"

The Song of the Camp.
BY BAYARD TAYLOR

BY BAYARD TAYLOR.
"Give us song!" the soldier cried
The outer trenches guarding
When the heated guns of the camp allied,
Grew weary of bombarding.
The Dark Redan in silent scoff,
Lay, grim and threatning under
And the tawny mound of the Malakoff
No longer bclchcd its thunder
There was guard the guardman said :
I'VE storm the forts tomorrow
Sing while We may, another day
VIII bring enough OF SORROW"
They lay along the battcrv's side,
Below the smoking cannon,
Brave hearts from Severn and from Clyde,
And from the banks of Shannon
They sang of love, and not of fame;
Forgot was Brittons glory:
Each heart recalled different name,
But all sang Annie Laurie"
Voice after voice caught up the song,
Until the tender passion
Rose like an anthem rich and strong
Their battleevc confession
Dear girl, her name he dared not speak,
Yet as the song grew lauder.
Something upon the soldiers cheek
" ashed off the stain of powder.
Beyond the darkening ocean burned
The bloody sunsets embers,
While the Crimean valleys learned
How English love remembers.
And once again fire of hell
Rained on the Russian quarters.
With screams of shot and burst of she'll,
And believing of the mortars.
And Irish Nora's eyes are dim
For a singer, dumb and CORY
And English Mary mourns for him
Who sang of annie Laurie"
All, soldier. 10 your honored rest;
Your truth and valor bearing;
The bravest are the tenderest-
The loving are the daring.
