From our Webster correspond

adventure which Mr.. Hiram Robb,
i farmer, had on Sunday afternoon
last while walking in 4. piece of
woods about halt Il mile from his
residence. He lives about half
mile north of the village Of Web
ster, and the woods are about half
Il mile further north and about two
or three miles from the shore OF
Lake Ontario. While walking he
was suddenly and unexpectedly
attacked by an eagle. 1t came at
him go savagely and appeared SO
large that at first Mr.. Roob at
tempted to run away. but it pur-
sued him and compelled him to
fight for bis very life. The en-
counter was fierce for few min
utes, and Mr.. Robb WAS thrown
down. Finally Mr.. Robb threw
himself bodily npon the eagle and
held it down. 1t struggled away
from him, however. and Mr.. Robb.
discovering that his wing had been
injured, made np his mind to take
HI The bird bird alive. The affray finally
resulted in a victory for MIR. Robb,
who secured the discomfitted eagle,
and tookit tobis home alive. There
il was fonnd to measure seven feet
from tip to tip. 1t is supposed
that the eagle was rendered savage
from hunger. tits a fine specimen
of the American eagle, and sup
posed to be one OF \ family domi-
