The TIGER AND THE MIssIoNARY.-A letter in
Wilmer and Smiths European Times, from Penang,
gives the following account Of an attack by tiger
upon Catholic missionary:
My escape from the tiger. says the writer, +" was
truly miraculous, but that of Padre Cuellon was still
more SO, as the following details Of the attack upon
that worthy priest will clearly prove The padre
on his way to church and was immersed in the study
OF bis sermon, when tiger, to his utter surprise,
suddenly rushed out Of the jungle or tall grass but
the beast had not measured its distance to nicely,
the padre, walking very quickly, frightened
than hurt The tiger, however, brushed SO close to
the padre that the latters trousers were torn the
snap of the beast being within hars-breadth of his
made another charge upon the poor padre and as he
had nothing to defend himself with but his large pa
per umbrella he suddenly opened it out in the brutes
face, which had the effect of cowing it for time
The tiger however evidently gamer or more pertina
cous in his attack than is the wont with his tribe,
charged the padreat least dozen times, which
pied nearly twenty minutes. In the meantime, the
padre gradually edged towards tree in an open
space of ground and, as there was o large white
ants nest between him and the tiger, round which
the latter had to make small tour, this enabled the
padre to climb the tree and get out of his way. The
tiger, getting round the nest was at first puzzled
at not seeing the padre but in few seconds be laid
his nose to the ground and soon scented the where
abouts of his intended victim. The tiger said the
padre quietly set down under the tree, and gave
wstful look toward me, but it fortunately was of
avail The natives, at length hearing the cries Of
the worthy padre, hastened to the spot and rendered
the assistance required The tiger fed the instant it
and sang the Ie Deum in token of gratitude for his
delivery. Padre Cuellon however, did not rally long
the fright had too serious an effect upon his system
and in about ten days he sank to rise to no more"

From. Arixona.

We have received the ArizoniaH OF June 3, pub.
lished at Tubac, from which we learn that the com
mttee Of citizens appointed at Tnbac, TO confer with
the municipal authorities and individuals in Sonora
adjoining Arizona respecting the outrages committed
by some lawless Americans In the Sonoita Valley
have reported that the explanations made have
aayed the feeling in Sonora and that there was a
confidence that the Mexicans, who had been fright
ened off from the mines, would return to resume
work in them.
The Arizonian speaks Of an enterprise to connect
Altar, in Sonora, with Port Lobos on the Gulf That
paper says:
Mr.. Zepeta. an enterprising merchant Of Altar,
Sonora, has lately opened wagon road from Altar
TO Port Lobos, on the Gulf and erected warehouse
there. He is now occupied in connecting Altar by
wagon road with the settled portion Of Arizona.
Should the Mexican Government permit the opening
Of this port, and allow free transit through the
country, Lobos will become the seaport of Arizona,
being distant from Tubac and Tucson about 200
miles. We have no doubt but the port would be
opened and free transit guaranteed were proper steps
taken by our Government. The greater portion oi
the new road to Port Lobos is over level country
with good pasturage.
The great advantages which this movement will
confer upon this portion ofArizons are apparent
Freight can be brought from Lobos for cents per
ponnd-.in all, 6 cents from San Francisco very
essential difference between that rate and the Is Of
Is cents now paid via the plains and Fort Yuma.
This is movement, also, which should interest
the United States Government, especially the mill
tay department, which is just now trying to econo
mize in the item of transportation. Troops and
military stores could be thrown into Arizona al
about 0nehaf the expense now liable to be incurred
Our new Minister to Mexico ought to be instructed
demand negotiate the right Of transit across Sonora
or what would be more polite for our Government
to purchase the upper portion Of the State SO as tt
give us port on the Gull, without which; this vas
mineral region never can be properly developed.
An apparently intelligent writer, who discusses ii
the Arizonian the late treaty with the Aapaches
condemns it not in the least calculated to restrain
the depredations of these Indians. His plan is t.
place them on reserved ground, where they can b
kept in surveillance by an officer Of the United
States.
