This is a murderer of Paoli, named Dehaney. _ . They met by accident, and now they fought not-with sword and rifle, but with long and deadly hunting knives they strug gled, twining and twisting on the green sward. 0 ' .At last thti tory is down-—down on the turf, with the knee of the continental upon his breast—the up raised knife flashed death in his ace. “ Quarters! I yield,” gasped the tory, as the knee was pressed upon his breast, “spareme, I yield.” • “My brother,” said the patriot in that tone of deadly hate, “ my brother cried for quarter at Paoli, and even as he clung to his knees, you stuck that knife into his heart. 0,1 will give you quarters of Paoli.” -j And as hip hand raised for the blow, and his teeth Were clenched with deadly hate, he paused for a moment, then pin : ioned the tody's arms,\nd with a rapid stride dragged him todfce verge of the rook, end hfld him quavering over the 'abyft. ■: J ' v f ; ' ■( c— J. [independent in everything.] " Mercy!" gasped the tory, turning asby paw by turns, as that awful gulf yawned below. " Mercy! I have a wife and child at home—spare me." the continental, with his muscular strenth gathered for the effort, shook the murderer once more over the abyss, then hissed his bitter sheer in his face. > ' • “I My brother had a and two chil dren. The moring after the night of Pa ,oli that wife was a widow, those children fatherless. Would you not like to go and begjyour life of that widow and her. father less I children ?" The proposal made by the continental in mockery and bitter hate, was taken to the; widow, and to have the privilege of pegging his life. After a moment's serious thought* the patriotic soldier con-, seated. He bound the tory’s arms still tighter, placed him on the rooks again, and'led him to ihe woods. A quiet cot tage, embossed among the the trees, broke on their eyes. They entered the cottage. There, beside the desolate hearthstone, sat the widow and children. She sat there, a matronly woman of about twenty-three years, with a face faded by care—a deep dark eye, and long black hair hanging in a disheveled state about her shoulders. On one side was a dark haired boy of some six years, on the other side a girl one year younger, with light blue eyes. The Bible-—an pld and ven erable volume—lay open upon the moth er’s knee. And now the pale face tory flung himself upon bis knees, and con fessed he had butchered her husband on the night of Paoli, and begged his life at her hands. , “ Spare me for the sake of my wife — child—" He bad expected this pitiful moan would touch the widow's heart, but not one relenting gleam softened her face. “The Lord shall judge between us,” she said in a cold icy tone, that froze the murderer’s heart. “Look, the Bible is on my lap j I will close the volume, and this boy shall open it, and place bis fingers at random upon a verse.” There was a silence. The continental soldier, who had sworn to avenge his Brother’s death, stood with dilating eyes and iparted lips. The culprit kneeling upoiKtbe floor, with his face'like decolor ed clay; felt his heart leap to his throat. Then, in a clear bold voice«, tho widow read from the Old* Testament.— It was short, yet terrible: v “ That man shall die !” Lpok! the brother springs forward to plunge a knife into the murderer’s heart, but the tory, pinioned as, he is, clings to the widow’s knees. He begs that one more trial may he made by tb e little girl, the child of five years old, with the golden hair and laughing eyes. Tl|e widow consents. There is an awful pausp. With a smile in her eye, without knowing what she was doing, the little girl opens the Bible -as it lay ion her moth er’s kneo j; she turned her fape 'away, and placed her finger upon a line. The awful silence grows deeper The deep; draw*). breaths of the brother, and broken gasp of the murderer, alone disturb the stillness; the widow and dark haired boy were breathless. The little girl, as she caught a feeling of awe from those abouther, stood breathless, her face turned aside, and lief tiny-finger resting on the line 6f life ' Ai lehgtb, gathering courage, the widow ihcnt her pye upon the page, and read. It was a line from the New Testament: u Jjove ybur enemies /” “Oh ! book of terrible majesty, and childlike love—of sublimity that crushes the heart with rapture—you fiever shone more stronly than there in thatTlonely cot of the Wissahicon when you saved the murderer’s heart. Now look how wonderful- arc the ways of Hieaven. That very night as the widow sat by her fireside—sat there with a crush ed heart and hot eyelids, thinking of her husband whonow lay mouldering on the drenched soil of Faoli —-there was a tap at tlje door. ; She opened it, and that husband, living, though covered with wounds, was in her anhs. He had fallen* at Faoli, but pot 1 in death, bowks aliyeV anji his wife lay panting on his bosom. , ’ : V ~'V' That night there was a prayer in the wood embowed cottage of Wissahioou. Tbe following account of a tiger chase • is extracted from the N orth “ Sphinx/' a regimental paper, published at Graham's Towp. The writer, after! alluding to Bis sporting experiences of all kinds, and in all (Quarters of the globe, 'declares that' ho nypyer witnessed so novel orjutenscly ex citing a chase as that about to be descri bed i- —Not long ago I spent a few days at Fort Brown, a small military post on the banks of the Great Fish river, where my friend W. was stationed. One evening, as my friend and I were returning home, after a somewhat fatigueing day’s buck shooting, we were startled by hearing/tho most extraordinary noises, not far from us. It seemed as if all the demons in the in fernal regions had been ; unchained, 1 an d - were amusing themselves by trying to 1 frighten t»poor mortals' by their horrid I Tiger Chase by -Baboons. yellirig. We stood m breathless expecta tion, not knowing what could possibly be the cause of this diabolical row, with all sorts of strange conjectures flashing across our minds. , Nearer and nearer the yel ling and screaming approached, and pres ently the cause became visible to our as tonished eyes. Some three or four hun dred yards to our right, upon the brow of a small hill, a spotted leopard (commonly called, in this country, a tiger, though much smaller-than the Lord of the Indian jungles,) came in view, hounding along with all the speed anu energy of despair, .while close behind himfollowed an onor mous pack of baboons,-from whoso throats proceeded the demonic 7 sounds that had,: a few seconds before, so startled us. Our* excitement in the chase, as you may sup pose) was intense. On went the tiger* making for the river, the baboons follow ing like avenging demons, and evidently gaining ground upon their nearly exhaus ted foe, though their exulting yells seem-: cd each moment to increase his terror and his speed. They reached the stream, the tiger still a few yards in advance, and with a tremendous bound, ho oast himself into the muddy waters and madd for the opposite bank.. The next moment his pursuers, in admirable confusion, were, smuggling after him, and as the tiger (now fearfully exhausted,) clambered on the land again, the largest and strongest of the baboons were close at his heels, thpugh many of the pack (the old, the very young, and the weakly)were alfstrug gling in the water. In. a few moments all had passed from our sight, behind the brow of the opposite bank; bat their in creased yelling, now stationary behind the hill, told us that tho tiger had met his. doom, and that their strong arms and jaws - were tearing him limb from limbi Astho evening was far advanced, and we were still some miles from home, we did not cross the river to be in at the death; but □ext morning, a few bones and scattered fragments of flesh and skin showed what had been the tiger's fate. On qur return home we were told by some Duteh gentle men that such hunts are not uncommon when a tiger is rash enough toj attack the young baboons, which often happens.— All these creatures for miles drouud, as semble and pursue their enemy with re lentless fury to his death. Sometimesthe chase lasts for days, but it| invariably closes with the destruction of the tiger—a strikingJostance that the ideai of retribn tive justice is not confined to man alone.

The Dead Wife. In comparison with: the loss of a wife, all other bereavements are trifles. The wife j sho who fills so large a space.in the domestic heaven ; bitter, bitter is the tear that falls on her clay. You stand beside her grave, and think of the past; an amber colored pathway where the sun shone upon beautiful flowers, or the stiffs hung overhead. Fain would the soul linger there. No thorns are remembered above the sweet clay, save those your own hands unwillingly planted. Her noble, tender heart lies open to your inmost sight You think of her as gentleness, all beauty and purify. But she is dead. The deer .thfead that has so often lain upon yourbo apm, now rests upon a pillow of clay, Tho bends'that administered so untiringly are faded, white and cold beneath the gloomy portals. The heart whose every beat measured an eternity of love, lies under your feet. And there is no white arm Over your shoulder now—no speaking face to look up in the eye of love—ho trembling lips to murmur, “ Gh, it is so sod !*' There is a strange hush in every room 1 ; No smiles to meet you at night fall—and the clock ticks, and ticks, and ticks! It was sweet musio when sho oould hear it.: Now it seems to knell only the hours through which you watch tho shadows of death gathering upon tho sweet face. Rut many a tale it telleth 6f joys past, sorrows shared and beautiful words registered apove. Yon feel that the grave cannot keep her. You know that she is often by your side,, an angel presence.

He was tried for it, and condemned to work on the roads for Kfe, and his wife and children were sold for slaves. About twelve years afterwards, this man, who was known to be well ac quainted with breaking elephants, was sent into the country with a party to assist in catching wild ones. They came upon a herd, and this man fancied he saw among group, his long-lost elephant, for which he was condemned. Qe resolved to ap proach itr—nor 4ould|the strongest remon strances of the Iparty dissuade him from the attempt.
