A week ago lady lost 81, 900 worth of
diamonds in the Fulton ferry-house, on
the New York side The jewels were
enclosed in a small pasteboard box,
about three inches long by two wide,
and in order to retain tight hold of the
parcel she hooked her finger under one
of the india rubber bands, and this
breaking suddenly the parcelfell into the
river. 1t did not sink, but foated on
the current. Instead of notifying the
ferry hands and having the parcel Sc
cured, she went up town and returned
with gentleman, who described the
loss. The missing diamonds were
searched fol-, but could not be found, al
though two men went out in a rowboat
and searched under the piles with long
hooks. It is supposed that the box was
washed by the ebb tide out into the
river, and the jewels went to the bot
tom. The loss, it is said, will fall upon
the lady, who did not own tie jewels

Retribution.

The following story of an exciting
combat is related In letter to the New
York Times from correspondent in
Monticello, of that state, who had it
from an old hunter, 60 Uncle Peter
Stewart:
Stewart was deer hunting one day i'll
the fall, but had had very poor luck.
He was on his way to his cabin when, on
passing a crevice in a ledge Of rocks, he
discovered the bones of deer and other
animals lying in it. He knew he had
found the den of a panther, and hid him
self to get shot at her if possible.
He had waited only a moment, when
he was surprised to see large bear
emerge from the den The bear carried
between his forepaws the kitten of a
panther. On reaching the outside, the
bear rose up on it's launches and
squeezed the young panther to death.
Throwing it on the ground, brrlin enter
ed the cave again.
Presently he returned with another
baby panther. This he treated in the
same manner. This kitten, however,
cried piteously when the bear carried it
out of the den, and gave loud shrek as
the life was being crushed out of it.
This cry was heard by it's mother, and
in few seconds she came bounding to
the spot.
At the sight of the old panther the
bear began to shamble off, but evidently
thinking there was no safety for him in
that means of escape, turned and climb
ed tree. The panther first looked at
one Of her dead kittens, turning it over
and over with her paws, licking it, and
whining piteously, and then went
through the same proceeding with the
other.
Then she seemed to comprehend the
situation, and with a fearful yell she
sprang to the tree which the bear had
climbed, and the next instant was
crouching on it's branches to spring up
on the destroyer of her young. The
bear doubled himself up in ball and
tumbled to the ground.
Before he could take two steps in his
effort to escape the panther was upon
him. The bear rose upon his launches,
and, as the panther leaped upon him,
he received her between his ponderous
forepaws. Before he could give her the
terrible hug that was intended to crush
her to death, the long, cimetar-like nails
on her hind feet had disembowelled the
bear, and he fell dying to the ground
The bear seemed to be conscious of his
danger as soon as he saw the panther.
Did he know the little animals were
panthers when he killed them?

In 1873 Joseph Kline married Lizzie

New York, and lived happily with her
until June Is, 1879, when he suddenly
left home, saying he wouldnever return,
No cause was given and his wife de-
SPARED of ever seeing him again, but
on November oath he returned as sud
denly as he had left and assumed his
accustomed place in the family. A few
days since he took his dinner pail and
started for work. At night he did not
come home, and as none of his compan-
ions had seen him during the day, it is
presumed he has run away again. His
dinner pail was found under bridge

VirchoW and the Esuuimaux.
[From the London telegram |

AS the Esquimaux at present visiting
Berlin belong to tribe that is nearly
extinct, and are consequently, from an
anthropological point of view, excep-
tionally interesting personages, Prof
V1rchow, the eminent German etimolo-
gist, recently obtained permission from
their exhibitor to subject them to a
scientific inspection, involving the
measurement of their skulls. While he
was engaged in feeling the heads of the
male Esquimarx, an old woman, named
Paignu, highly respected in the tribe as
o potent witch, watched his movements
with manifest distrust and perturbation
of spirit When, however, he approach
ed her In turn, with outstretched hands,
the conviction that he was a white
sorcerer, bent upon robbing her of her
supernatural powers, completely over
came her sense of decorum, and she
fed from him round the room, leaping
over tables and chairs with astonishing
agility for one of her sex and age, and
yelling out the strongest spells she
could think OF as likely to prove efficient
against the Professors necromantic
manipulations. Somewhat startled by
good Mother Paignu's gymnastic feats,
Virchow and his two assistants in
stinctively drew back, whereupon the
Esquimaux Abraham, who has been con-
verted to Christianity, but obviously re-
tain a respectful recollection of his for
mer faith, grew deadly pale, and was
heard to mutter "The gods of my
country are mightier than the Christian
Deity. See how the white magician re-
coils from Paignu's words of power
