FIGHTING THE REGAL TIGER.
Prince Alfreds Great Tiger Hunt-35
Elephants In the Field.

Prince Alfred, the Duke OF Edinburgh, is
enjoying himself greatly in India. In Feb
ruary he was magnifcently entertained
near the boundaries OF Nepaul, by Sir Jung
Bahadoor, native Prince, of immense
wealth.
The Duke reached his camp on banks OF
the NOLAN river, which Separates Dude
from Nepaul at $50 on the morning of the
23d of February. Soon afterward Sir
Jung Bahadoor, who was encamped on the
opposite bank, came across to meet and
congratulate his royal guest. He was in
full state costume, and wore a
splendid head dress valued at thirty. five
thousand dollars in gold After pleasant
interview Sir Jung Bahadoor having laid
aside his elegant attire and replaced it by
hunting costume, the two Princes set out
for the great tiger hunt which the Indian
host had planned for the entertainment OF
the Royal English sportsman. The battle
which followed is described as absolutely
unique. There were upward of $50 hunt
ing elephants in the field; a tiger was soon
started our of the jungle, and by mastery
management was gradually so hemmed in
by elephants that at last these formed q
complete circle of not more than sixty
yards diameter, with only the Prince, Sir
Jung Bahadoor. and the tiger in the central
space.
When the latter realized his situation,
he ran roaring round and round the circle
trying to find an exit, and at last made a
rush at what seemed probably the weakest
point in the circle This, however, was
Just In front OF the Dukes elephant, and a
we!l.directed shot from his Royal High
ness rolled him over, though it took two
or three more balls to finish him 1t was
an understood thing that no one bat the
Duke was to fire, and to give an idea OF Sir
lungs consummate courtesy, it may be
noticed that he had dismounted from his
own elephant and climbed into the state
howdab, which by bis orders had been
prepared for the Duke, where he sat be-
hind his royal visitor, not firing himself,
but handing gun after gun to the Duke as
he required them.

"a ThanklesS Child"

A correspondent of the Washington
Chronicle, writing from Parkersburg, West
Virginia, tells this lamentable story about
an old German woman he met in the cars
Her son, who resides in Portsmouth
sent for her to come 20 America, and eight
weeks ago she arrived. But his wife did
not like her; she wastoo old (seventy-four)
and her hands too rough; and now he had
sent her back, alone, with no provisions for
her comfort or passage, except tickets
through to n, Y, and the following words,
written on some old business card; Please
direct the bearer of this, an old woman,
to the proper Office to get to New York,
and there TO 6S Broadway street, to the
General Agency OF the North German
Lloyd, the General Agent. This was with
out signature. AS II was written in Eng
lish, OF which she underst ood nothing, she
had no doubt that 1t was all that was nee
essary to get her safely back to Germany.
But still she was almost heartbroken, for
she had no home now even in Faderland,
as she had sold her little all which she
had spent years TO collect, and given S240,
all that was left when she got to Ports
mouth, to her son. Now sne was sent

dollars in her pocket, and no means OF
getting further than New York. All
that could be done for the poor wo.
mans comfort on the cars was done,
aud she stayed over night at Parkersburg.
The next day several prominent citl.
zens OF Portsmouth took her case in hand,
and she was taken to comfortable quarters.
They know Of her son, and confirm the
old lady's story that he is well off, and they
are determined he shall DO what is right
for his poor old mother.
When Mr. DeBarr read the writing on
the card, and told her what it was, she
could scarcely believe it; aud when ut
length she comprehended it, the mothers

treat her so cruelty was sad to witness.

Miss Emma Willard,
FROM the n. Y. Post.

One of the most eminent women in the
country died Friday Mrs. Emma Willard
was distinguished in many ways. She was
the author of many useful treatises, several
of which still! hold their place astext-books
in many of our best institutions of learn
ing. She had fine poetic taste, and some
of her verses are familiar as household
words throughout the country; es oecially
the devout and expressive hymn, Rocked
in the Cradle of the Deep which was
actually composed by her during storm
at sea, and will continue for years af-
ter she has passed away to afford to pious
voyagers comfortable expression Of their
trust. In wide circle OF personal friend.
ship, and especially among the poor and
suffering in the City Of Troy where she
has spent long and active life, she will
be remembered for her sincere kindness,
deep sympathy, strong friendships and
genuine beneficspce.
But the work to which Mrs Willard gave
her best years and most earnest efforts was
that of the higher education of women.
She was almost the first person in the Uni.
ted States to give etfectual and practical
force to the long-felt want of higher
standard of culture in female schools.
She has lived to see the complete tri.
umph of her just and noble views and
thus to obtain the highest reward sincere
reformer can desire. Who would now ven
ture to question the rule she adopted more
than forty years ago, that women ought tc
enjoy culture adapted to their own work
in life, yet equal in richness and complete
ness to that provided for men? Mrs. Viii

Hong Kong was o marvel of ford rhetoric
1t described him personally as being fair

no specimens on hand to verify the smiles
His mental requirements were eulogized
more definitely, and might have put the
Admirable Crichton to shame. "With
