TIGER AND BUFFALO HUNT.

The New York Herald furnishes the
following account Of a tiger and buff
ialo debate, arranged for the amuse-
ment Of the Grand Duke Alexis. by
the Maharajah Of Lahore, a territory
adjacent to Singapore. British East
Indies For the projected tiger and
buffalo contention there had been Gre
ated two ring fences of stout trees, one
with the other, At one end Of the In
terval between them was the tiger and
At the other the buffalo, the latter be-
hind one Of the plank. Over the CEN
ire place was q platform erected, man
ned by natives, who were appointed to
raise the curtain In front Of the two
leading performers at the appointed
signal. The Prince arrived. and the
audience all expectation, the two cur
tains were drawn up or raised, and the
stripes and buff stood uis-a-uis. The
tiger seemed only wishful to immedi-
ately sneak away, but the buffalo
charged at once, knocking her about
dreadfully. Every endeavor was made
to arouse the courage Of the tiger, but
il was Of no avail. At last, BY means
Of q rope and pulley, the tiger was
raised by the neck aud let fall on the
back Of the buffalo, and after making
a last grasp at his neck, fell off aud
was Immediately butted and pounded
by the enraged buffalo. 1t Is reported
that q bottle Of arrack was previously
given to the buffalo and some opium
to the tigress, In order to raise the
mettle Of the n and tone down the
feroclty of the other. This appears to
have been totally unnecessary, rs ir
evidently spoiled the matter In the
very outset.

THE BRorAERToN BROTHERS.

The Philadelphia Ledger, Of the 9th
instant, contains the following scrap
Of history of the notorious forgers who
have recently created such a sensation
In San Francisco:
A dispatch from San Francisco, CAL
~ifornia, announces the escape from
prison. at TINT place, Of the Brotherton
Brothers. who were serving out a term
Of thirteen years for forgery. The
fusitives are Philadelphians, and are
we'll known here from the fact that
they were concerned In forgerles on
the Corn Exchange Bank, and George,
the elder, In a forgery on the State
Bank Of Camden. n. j. In consider
alton OF turning States evidence
against Peter Burns, and Of being
mainly instrumental In his conviction
as q party to the forgeries on the Corn
Exchange Bank, George was released,
and soon after opened q public house
In the building contiguous to the Mer-
chants Exchange, Third and DOCK
streets. He was subsequently, several
times assaulted By the friends Of Peter
Burns, once or twice with q deadly
weapon, but always escaped serious
injury. He and hls brother disappeared
from this city about two years ago and
the first that WAS heard OF them was
their arrest iu San Francisco, or In
that neighborhood. for a series Of for
geries ON bankers Of that place.

A NEW PROJECT IN rELEeRApHy.
From the Philadelphia Pross.l

lFrom the Phllaoelpnia fross.l
Operations have been commenced In
Chicago and New York by district
telegraph companies. The object is to
connect the offices or residences Of sub
scribers with a district bureau by
means Of a telegraph wire, so that
messengers or private police, whom
the companies will furnish, can be Sig
nailed at any time, and who will re-
spond in from one to three minutes.
It Is especially designed for the use Of
business men who cannot always have
a trusty messenger at their elbow.
The importance Of this arrangement
can scarcely be overestimated, and the
day is not far distant when some such
system will be working In all our
cities. In addition to the accommo-
dalton 1t will afford business men By
giving them at all times the means Of
Communication, Its value will be
almost equally great In private houses.
It will be q wonderful protection
against burglary. and the gentry of
thar delightful vocation will need all
their sharp wit to overcome 1t. They
cannot cut the wires, for the wires will
be run underground. At your bedside
you will have the electric handle, the
turning Of which will bring aid almost
Immediately. Your summons will be
.noiseless, and support will come to you
before the midnight robber knows you
have called for It. It will be only
necessary to hear him TO have him cap.

A MUSCULAR CLEReINAN.-A De-
troit shoulder-hitte wanted to get
married, so everything was made res-
dy, the wedding feast was set forth In
a bar-room. and the happy man went
for q clergyman, while the bride and
bummers impatiently waited. He
found q clergyman. but when told Of
the locality In which the ceremony
was to be performed, the holy man
fistly refused TO 60. The offer OF q
double fec having been rejected. the
sport made angry allusion to mansard
roof and other additions 10 the clergy
mans superstructure, whereupon the
latter gave him the worst looking eye
In Detroit and kicked him down stairs,
probably awakening In his breast a
healthy regard for muscular Chris
tianity.
We happen to know Of at least three
clergymen In Virginia and Gold Hill
who arc a little "on it." In the above
mentioned line. They are good hard
hltters, with no mean amount Of

INprAN MARRIAGES.

A very interesting question has 70
Gently been brought before the MIS-
souri, Courts. growing out Of the prac-
tice 20 prevalent among settlers In
frontier States Of contracting what are
called Indian marriages. Traders and
other whites among tho tribes along
the border select squaws for wives,
marrying them according to the In
dian custom. or otherwise, yet not al
ways restricting themselves to q single
wife, and tho consequence Is that In
Missouri, Arkansas, Texas Iowa, and
mostot the Territories there are great
numbers OF persons who are the or
spring Of these Irregular marriages.
The question Is now brought before
the Courts As to whether the issue OF
such marriages can inherit property as
legitimate heirs, and the case which
has opened this novel and important
question 10 Of peculiar interest. It's
thus set forth In the New York Sun:
Mr.. William Gilliss, one Of the first
settlers Of Kansas City. and its most
wealthy citizen at the time Of his
death, some time ago died a bachelor.
a. every one supposed. leaving his
property to his niece. q Mrs. Troost
who afterward also died. leaving 3
will In which were bequests for the
erection Of an opera house, a church
and q seminary, aud for the establish
ment OF a park and other public I'M
provemenrs In Kansas City. Mr.. Gill
iiss. Il appears. in early life had been
an Indian trader, aud had contracted
an Indian marriage. His hslf.oreed
children have contested the will Of
Mrs.. Troost, OH the ground that they
were the legal heirs Of Giiliss and the
case has besn tried before a jury In the
Circuit Court. who decided iu favor OF
the Indian heirs, thus setting aside the
WILL OF course sn appeal WAS taken
from this decision, and the case will
be carried before the Supreme Court,
when the question will be definitely
settled whether q marriage contracted
according to Indian customs conSti-
tutes such . marriage ~ the laws Of the
country can take c~ognizaLce OF aud en-
force a. legal and binding In all re-
spects.

The main business Of the votaries is to

twice during the night they get out Of

LATEST FROM THE DIAMOND RE.
6i0h.

Yesterday. says the Salt Lake Herald
of November 18th, we perused q letter
from Mr.. Savage, Of the diamond ex-
plorlng expedition, dated Fort WIN
gate, New Mexico, November !0tn,. In
which he states that he had made what
he considered valuable locations. But
while on the ground a band OF from
two to three hundred Ute Indians, we'll
mounted and armed, rode up to them
and ordered them to leave or fight.
As Mr.. Savage's party consisted only
OF himself and three others, they con-
sidered discretion the better part OF
valor, and left. Mr.. Savage thinks OF
returning to the scene Of his operations
In the Spring, with a party sufficiently
strong to hold the ground against any
ordinary force Of savages.
