The Wyandot pioneer. (Upper Sandusky, Ohio) 1853-1868, 1866-07-26

Some years ago. some English efficerS
camping in the vicinity of Mnlkapoor,w
out tiger-huntihg, and bagged splendid
tigress. Whilst returning home with the
trophy. they found. in secluded spot, in
the lee Of jagged rock, what evidently
was the fair of Il tiger, for there fay bones
of both human and brute kind, and shredS
and rags Of clothing. More interesting
than al. however, was the discovery of
tiny kitten. not more than 4 fortnight old
coiled in a corner. winking and blinging
and gaping at tie intruders. The hunters
at once decided that this must be the cub
of the beast tlIey had slain, and willingly
took charge of the little orphan.
Tiger kittens are not captured every day,
so when the hunters returned to their quar-
ters. the excitement in their tent was con-
siderable. The newly acquired kitten was
provided with tiny dog collar and chain
and attached to the tent-pole, round which
it gamboled, to the delight of an audience
numbering nearly twenty. About two
hours after the capture, however. and just
rs it was growing dark,the good people in
the tent were checked in the midst of their
hiIarity by a sound that caused the brayest
heart to beat rather irregularly.
1t was the roar. or rather the combina-
ton OF shrek and roar, peculiar to the tie
ger when driven mad with rage. Imam in
stant the gamboling kitten became every
| inch a tiger. and strained with all its baby
strength at the tether. while it replied with
a loud wall. to the terrible voice outside, =
The company were panic stricken. There
was something so sudden and unearthly in
the roar that it seemed rs though the great
tiger. brought in an hour before had come
to life again. Certainly the tiger in ques-
/ ton was already hayed, but the picture
conjured up became not the more pleasant
for that. There was, however, not nearly
so much time for, speculation to tho scared
company as writing these lines has cost; !;
for almost simultaneous with the roar
there leapt sheer into the center of tho
tent, bold tigress and without deigning
to notice a single man there. she caught her
kidnapped baby by the pape of its necl
and giving it a jerk, snapped the little
chain, and then turning for the tent door,
trotted oil at full speed. After ally ap-
peared that the little thing did not belong
to the tiger that was slain, but to the brave
mother that had tracked and recovered it.
lSangunary man-eater as she may have
been. one canbe scarcely sorry to hear that
not a gun was leyeled at the great rejoicing
creature as she bore off her young ono, and
that she got clear off.

Total Income Tax for County, sc,


A recent author tells of Virginian tray
cling in Arkansas, who, on testing the
whiskey of his host found it rather raw
and unpalatabfe. and mixed it in the shape
of Of ':mint-julip," which was a novel
idea to the Arkansian. The latter, how
ever. was delighted with the new style of
drink, indulged in itquite literally. learn
ed the method of concocting it. The
mournful result is told thus: '!The old
mans dead, stranger
The Virginian continued on his journey
toward Texas. and in due course of time
set out on his return. On arriving at the
House before mentioned he concluded he
would call and renew his acquaintance
with his friendly old host. Accordingly,
lie rode up to the gate, and seeing one of
the boys of the family standing near, ask
ed him: GLOW is the old gentleman, your
father my SOM"
The boy, with an air of the most perfect
indifference, replied; Why, the old mans
dead, stranger
rs it possible. How long since?'
''About two weeks, stranger.
''Ah, indeed! Pray what was the mat
ter with the poor old gentleman. my son ~
"Waal, now, stranger, I'll tell ye what it
was. Thar was an old feller from Virginie
he com'd along this way last summer, and
he just ups and larns the old man to drink
greens in his liquor, and you can bet
your life ont it sent him higher nor q
kite"
Upon the Virginian's suggesting to the
boy that it might have been possible the
bad quality of the whiskey exercised a
more deleterious influence upon his faith
er's health than the mint, he replied;
f'No, stranger, it was not the whisky,
for we've alters used Ticker in our family,
and though it made old nom powerful
weak, yet it never phazed old pop AIRY
time-no, it are the greens, as sure as yer
born"

Jealous preacher, and a sweet singer
Nothing gave him so much pleasure as to
go about the country preaching and sing

goods. desiring to make him and his fami-
ly comfortable in their declining years,
generously presented him with a tltle-deed
for three hundred and twenty acres Of land,
Strange accepted the donation with thank
fulness, and went on his way preaching
and singing as he went. But after a few
months he returned,and requested his gek-
erous friend to take the title-deed. Sur
prised at the request, the gentleman la
quired:

The Crops Abroad.

A knowledge of the condition of the crops
in the old world is very important to the
farmers this side of the Atlantic. From all
we can learn the crop of cereals in Russia
is very good Sweden, Denmark and Nor
way have enjoyed fair harvests, and Spain
has done pretty well, but will be obliged to
economist. In England there is delicien-
cy. In Germany North and South the
crops have suffered from the recent war,
and the Southern Districts of Hungary are
reported to be almost destitute of cereals.
In France the wheat crop for three years
past was abundant but this year is inferior
in quantity and quality. The vines have
suffered, especially in the south of France,
the almonds too have failed, and the vari-
Gus kinds of fruit fall below the desirable
standard. Some of the finest Provinces in
Algeria have been laid waste by the locusts,
and thousands of their inhabitants have
been reduced to almost the condition of
beggars, and now appeal to France for aid
India is scene of famine so universal that
her unfortunate peasantry are dying of hun
ger by the roadside.
In view of these facts we may expect an
increased emigration to our fortunate coun-
try, and regard the prospects Of our far
mers as hopeful and cheering. They will
do well to make calculations for raising
another year all they can.
