A TERRIBLE TRAGEDY.-On q pine wood
shed, in an alley dark, where scattered moon
beams fitted through a row of tottering
chimneys, and an awning, torn and dropping,
fell, strobe back and forth, with stiff and
tense-drawn muscle and peculiar treal-a
cat.
His name was Norval. On yonder neigh
boring shed mis- father fought the cats that
came in squads from streets beyond, in
search OF food and strange adventure.
Grim war he courted; and his twisted tail,
and spine upheaving in fantastic curve, and
claws distended, and ears fatty pressed
against head thrown back defantly, told of
impending strife.
With eyes agleam, and screechng blast of
war, and steps as of the falling dew, young
Norval crept along the splintered edge, and
gazed a moment through the darkness down,
with tail awag triumphantly.
Then, with an imprecation and growl-
perhaps an oath, in direst vengeance hissed-
be started back, and, crooked in body like
letter S-or rather like inverted-stood
in fierce expectancy.
Twas well. With eyeballs glaring, and
ears aslant, and open mouth, in which two
rows of fangs stood forth in sharp and dread
conformity, slow up a post, from out the
dark below, head appeared.
A dreadful tocsin of determined strife
young Norval uttered; then, with face un-
blanched, and moustache standing straight
before his nose, and tail flung wildly to the
passing breeze, stepped back in cautious in
vitation to the foe.
Approached the other, and with prepara-
dire, each cat surveyed the vantage of the
field. Around they walked, with tails up
lifted in the air, while from their mouths, in
accents Kissing with consuming rage, drop
ped brief but awful sentences of hate.
Thrice round the roof they went in circle,
each with eye upon the foe intently bent
then, sidewise moving, as is wont with cats,
gave one long drawn, terrific, savage VOW,
and buckled in.
The fur flew. A mist of hair hung DER
the battle field. High above the din of pass
ing wagons rose the dreadful tumult of
struggling cats. So cleaned their eyes in
frenzy that to me, who saw the conflict from
a window near, naught else was plain but
fiery stars that moved in orbits most eccen-
trio.
An hour they struggled in tempestuous
night; then faint and fainter grew the sqna!l
of war, until all sound was hushed. Then
went forth with lamp in hand, and by it's
ghostly light the field surveyed. What
saw /?
Six claws-one ear-of teeth perhaps
handful-and, save fur naught else except
solitary tail. That tail was Norvals-by
ring l knew t.. The ear was. But we'll
let the matter rest. The tail will do without
the earn. Y. Printer.
