A Tiger Hunt.

The Madras Mail, CT October 25th, saws:
''On Thursday Colonel Christie, with Mr..
Garstin, aud another gentleman, went to
look for tiger, which had killed buffalo
within two miles of Coty. Having found
the locale, it was agreed after consultation,
to draw the neighboring ghouts for stripes.
The Todas stated that the tiger had come
to buffalo kraal, and taken his victim. Hav-
ing beaten two sholas without success, the
party tried young plantation near the
Governors shols. Shortly a great yelping
was heard, and soon after mighty stripes
was seen rolling along, his back and tail
showing above the bushes. He was so fat
and unwieldy, and rolled in his g,.te so
much that he presented more the appear
ance of drunken old dog than respect

him, chasing him ike cat, but stripes
took no notice. He approached Colonel
Christie, who. was the first to hit him,
though he had much difficulty in doing
SO, being in cramped position on
tree and having to shoot to his
right. Stripes rolled into the next shela,
and then came tie din of tiger war; dogs

ries, proceeded to blaze away. Poor old
stripes fell off mortally wounded. Then
all hands rushed into the shola, and found
the mighty beast dead Altogether it was
a grand shikar scene, and to add to its

A MOST RRMARxABLR CASE of consaneuine-
Gus sympathy is that of a father and SON
living in Fleming county, Ky. The father
is about 45 years of age, and the son is
not yet 20. When one has any complaint
the other is similarly Affected
But yet more remarkable still is
the similarity Of their appetites, tempera-
ments and general actions What one likes
and eats the other likes and eats; and what
one disiikes and won't eat, the other dis
likes and won't eat. II one becomes angry
or gloomy, Or happy, 70 the same degree
and at the same time IS the other angry, or
gloomy, or happy. They sneeze at the
same time, sleep at the same time and the
same number Of hours, and the most re-
markable Of all, they dream at the same
time, and the dream Of one is the same as
that Of the other. How cross the father
must feel when his son gives him the
tooth-ache how disgusted the boy must
be whom his father has no appetite

A STEAM PLow OF NOVEL CONSTRUCTION
has lately been invented in Rochester,
which has awakened considerable interest
among farmers. The machine is an ordin-
any double-cylinder steam engine and
boiler. mounted on two main wheels, FIVE
feet in diameter, &C eight inches in tread =
two smaller ones being placed in front for
guiding and weighing altogether about
two tons. The distinguishing feature of
this machine lies in the main or driving
wheels. The rim of each wheel ia perfo-
rated in IL equi-distant places. and through
the apertures II spoon-shaped anchors, "
each seven inches long by five inches wide,
are made to operate in this way: As the
wheels revolye, the anchors are made to
protrude from them ard enter the earth to
any desired depth, Withdrawing as they
pass under the centers of the wheels, and
thus obyisting all back strains and Its con-
sequent waste Of power. The hold taken
on the ground by the anchors is SO great
as to Withstand almost any strain, and in
case they meet with an obstruction through
which they cannot penetrate, the springs
which hold the cams and levers in position
recoil to allow them to pass back into the
wheels until the cause of resistance has
been passed. -
