The leopard of Africa (Fells Leop ardvs) there very commonly called ti ger or panther, which Captaiu Harris tells us is very similar in appearance to that indigenous to India, is common throughout Damaraland, as also Southern Africa generally; Tut, from its cunning, active nature and noctur nal habits, is but rarely seen. ; It is about two feet seven inches high at the shoulder, and seven feet 8ti inches in extreme length. The cliTb, neck, breast, belly and inside! of the extremities, are white, the rest varying in different specimens between tawny, fulvous and reddish-brown, ir regularly marked with spots of black, which differ greatly in number, siae and appearance at different age and seasons. It is monogamous, or solita ry. - '. -' - - ' .' " '" In its wild slate it is an exceedingly beautiful creature, its motions in the highest degree easy and graceful,': and its agility in bounding among the rocks and woods quite amazing, i Of its activity do person can have' an idea by peeing it in the cages in which these animals are usually exhibited, humbled and tamed, as they are. bv confinement and the cold and damp of .1 i: - f ni a climate. Casualitics from leopards in my .vi cinity were not of unfrequent occur rence. Ou ono occasion, - indeed; my Swedish lad,. Axel, was beating some low bushes in search of game and spec imens, when he suddenly found him self in the presence of one of these beasts, who, apparently, was in the very act of springing upon him, its head being ensconced between its fore legs,' as is its wont on su;h occasions. Being probably startled at the unex pected vision, the youth hurriedly raised his fowling-piece to his shoulder and fired. JJut the contents, unfortu nately, only lodged in one of the- ani mal's forepaws, which it smashed, as was afterward ascertained', and before he could pull the second trigger he found-himself in a. deadly struggle with the exasperated brute, , However, being a strong-Tin bed and courageous young man, he seized the leopard with both hands, afid fur some moments held it d6ru to the ground by" main force. , . Hearing cries of distress, some Dam araa who were herding cattle hard by came up, but seeing the danger, they neat a precipitate retreat. iMy poor boy repeatedly pointed with his foot to the gun, hut all in vain, and he b gan to despair of his life, as the beast had by this time dreadfully lacerated both his hands and his arms, and con sequently unfitted him for prolonged", strife with such a fierce and powerful opponent. ' Providently the dogs, tfcouzh not the most courageous, came to the res cue, and by persistently worrying the beast in his binder parts, hnally com' pel led him to decamp, though not until he had killed one of the number. It is satisfactory, however, to add that he himself was shortly niter ward de stroyed by a party of natives, who, on hearing tha poor fellow a cries, prompt ly ran to the spot, and afterward went in pursuit of the leopard, which died game, having slain a second dog ; two others, moreover, being accidently shot bv their owuers in the general melee. As I have said, the lad was fearful ly knoeked about and mauled. In some places, especially about the hands and wrists, the teeth of tho animal bad actually met in the flesh. I amhow ever, happy to be able to add that with care and quiet, he ultimately re gained the use of his arms and hands, though not until after much prolonged sunering. On another occasion, a herdsman espied a leopard among some rocks, and being armed he unhesitatingly discharged uia musket, but either missed his mark, or very . slightly wounded the brute. Hie next mo meot the poor fellow felt himself struck violently to the ground, with the teeth of the unfuriated animal doeply bur ied in his left shoulder. However, by toe assistance of some dogs the leop ard was made to retreat after a while, but not until it bad fearfully mauled the man, who, though he recovered temporarily, eventually died from the effects of the dreadful wouada inflict ed. Numerous other instances of the fe rociiy of the leopard have come under my notice, and very many others are on record, of which I shall instance few. Two African farmers, Returning from hunting, roused a leopard in the moun tain ravine, ana immediately gave chase to it. Ihe beast at first endeav ored to escape by clambering up i precipice, but being hotly pursued, and wounded by a musket-ball, it turned upon its assailants with the frantic ferocity peculiar to this 'ani mal, and springing upon the man who bad fired at it, pulled him to the ground, biting him at the same time , on the loulder. and te&rinsr open bis f) '"'v;:,: Y1 DECEMBElt G, 187G. checks with its claws. The other hun ter, seeing the danger of his comrade, sprang from his horse and attempted to shoot the leopard through tho head, but, whether owing to trepidation, the fear of wounding his friend, or the qnick motions of the animal, he unfor tunately missed. Alio leopard, aban doning its prostrate foe, darted with redoubled fury upon its new antago nist, and so fierce nod sudden was . the onset that, before the Boer could stab it with his hunting-knife, the savage brute struck him on the bead with its claws, and actually tore the scalp over his eyes. In this frightful condition, the hunter grappled with the leopard, and, struggling for life, they rolled to gether down a steep declivity. A this passed far more rapidly than i can be described in . words. During this dreadful scene, the hunter first attacked had started to his feet and seized his gun, and after reloading' it, ne rusneu iorwara to save ine me oi his friend. But it' was too late: the leopard, had seized tho unfortunate man by the throat and mangled him so dreadfully that death was inevita ble; and his comrade (himself severely wouuledl had only the melancholy satisfaction ol completing the destruc tion of the savage beast, already ex hausted with the Iosr of blood from several deep wounds from the knife of the expiring huntsman. j ! ; Again, another instance of the fe rocity of the leopard occurred in the case of the Missionary Schmidt : This worthy man-had gone out with a party of Hotteotots to another Mora vian; station to linnt 6ome hyenas which had been very destructive; to their flocks, and, in company with oue of the men, entered a thicket in pur suit of a beast they had ; wounded. Instead of the hyena, however the dogs started a leopard, which instant ly sprang oa the llottentox and bore him to the ground. Mr. Schmidt' ran forward to the aid of the man with his gun cocked ; but, before be could find an opportunity or hring, the animal left the Hottentot and flew with fury at himself. In the scuffle he dropped Ike gun but luckily- fell' above,, the leopard, Willi ms a nee on lis etomncn. The animal seised him by tha left arm with its jaws, and kept striking' him with its paws nndtearing his clothes in tatters from his breast. Schmidt, however, being a' powerful.' man, "suc ceeded, after receiving another severe bite or two, in seizing the leopard by the throat with i bis. right hand, and held iUlown,' in spite of its desperate struggle,, for a few minutes, aud until bis strength, was on tho point of giving way." when a Hottentot on the outside J f 1 6 e iu n ?1 p.' ' wh o . beard ' bis. cries, -I ... ,r. ,u,. e Vttlll btl me leouiiu nuu ouu. ,wio io- rocious beast th rough - theHieart, so that, iu ' death was instantaneous. Had any lifa been left,- its dying strug gles might Btill have 'proven ; fatal to Mn Schmidt. As it was, he was so terribly lacerated that for several weeks his life was in the greatest dag ger. The Hottentot who was first at tacked was less severely wounded, but his face was bo much torn by the animal's talons that his eyes were filled with blood, and be was unable to render any aid, to the missionary who had so generously come to his aid. ' On' one occasion Mr. Orpan and President (a native follower) had gone up tho river to 6hoot sea-cows, when they fell in with an immense leopard, which President wounded very badly. They then sent natives to camp to ask for dogs, of which I sent them a couple. In about an Lour the na tives came running back and said that Orneu was killed by the leopard. On further inquiry, however, I found that he waa not really ' killed, but fearfully torn and bitten about the arms and head. They, had rashly taken up the epoor on font, the dogs following behind, instead of going in advance. The consequence of this was that they came right upon the beast before tHey were aware of him, when Orpeu fired and misced him. Tho leopard then sprang on bis shoul ders, and, dashing him to the ground,' lay upon him, growling and lacerat ing his hands, arms and head most fearfully. Presently the creature per mitted Orpen to rise and come away. Numerous instances of hair-breadth escapes from the leopard are also on record, among which that of Moffat, the missionary, is, perhaps, not the least remarkable, the rather as, in the avoidance of the threatened daDger, he incurred another of even a more perilous nature, thus verifying the old saying, '"Out of tha frying-pan into the fire T "la one of my early journeys," he writes, "I had an escape from au Afri can tiger and a serpent, no less provi dential. I bad left the wagon and wandered to -a distance among the coppice and grassy openings in qnest of game. I had a double-barreled gun on my shoulder, which was loaded with a ball and small shot. An ante lope passed, at which I fired, arid slowly followed tha uurs it ! ') i $2 PER ANNUM - After1 advancing a short ' distance,'' I saw' a tiger staring at me ' between the forked branches of a tree, behind wbich its long, epotted body;wasl con cealed, twisting and: turning its, tail like a cat Just going to spring on its prey. This, I knew, was' a critical moment. I moved about, as' if in search' of something on the grass, tak ing care to retreat at the same time: After getting, as I thought, a suitable distance to turd my back.' I. moved somewhat more quickly ; but1 In my anxiety to escape what waS'bebtnd, I did not see what was . before me, until startled by, treading on a, large cobra-da-capello serpent asleep on the grass. It instantly twisted 'it '. body round my legs, on which I bad noth ing but a pair of thin trowaers, when I leaped from the spot, dragging the enraged ard venomous reptile after me, and while in the act of throwing itself into a position to bite, I, without turning round, threw ! my piece "over my shoulder and shot it. Taking it by th tail, I brought it to my j people in the wagons,, who pn examining the bag of poison, asserted that, had the creature bitten me, I could never have reached the wagon. " The terpen t was bit feet long." : : ' ' ' -' ' -Thecbaseef the' leopard, by both colonists and catives, is commonly conducted on footj the hunters being accompanied ; by dogs, of which the more there are the better, as they are the greatest of safeguards from this fierce and agile beast; and, though the native fox-like breed are awful lock ing creatures, I have never found any others equal to them for, daring or pertinacity. ,' - ' The Forest and Stream, quoting a letter from New Brunswick, N. J., describes a case where several wood cocks were brought tip by1 a farmer and became well domesticated. He found four io a nest, and bronght them home with him, hardly expecting they would live. But he saw that by hold ing worms before their bills they would swallow them, although they would not pick them up off the " ground. '' In a few days they became ' very-tame, and, as they grew older, and acquired their full plumage, they would take thort flights about the fartri, but always returning to tho, bouse, and roosting beueath the stone slab -forming : the kitchen doorstep.. When - the farmer and our informant went into th gar deu, the. birds, attracted by their own er's voice, came hopping out of the brush and flew upon bis i shoulders', manifesting not the slightest fear, but nut permitting his companion to ap proach them. After taking food from his hand they again flew away. Watch ing the birds, feeding, it was observed that they would rapidly drive their bills into the soft ground, constantly boriug until they - found their worm, They would then give a peculiar twitt, draw.it out its' full lengtbr and gulp the worm down.,. , , s .... , , "A Charlemont marketman, when de livering goods ope morning, discovered on. leaving the house of a customer -a eustard pie sitting in a window where the lady of the bouse had placed it to copl for dinner. He at once appropri ated it, and driving directly' to the store of the lady's husband, called him out and told him he had "hooked" & nice custard pie, and if be would get some checso they would . have a. nice time eating it. Of course the choose was forthcoming, and after 6atisfacto rially dispobiog of the pie the question arose what to do with the plate, the merchaut said he would take care of that, and, suiting the action , to his words, dashed . it against the wall. Wheu the merchant went home to din ner that day his wifa apologized for not having any dinner, saying that she made custard pie for dinner aud sat it in the window to cool, and she suppos ed some boys must have stolen it. Her husband warn't pie hungry, and seemed quito pler.eed about something but kept "mum," ' Next morning the merchant meeting the marketmau cried out 'Tie!" In reply the other said: "Cheese! and whose plate was that you smashed?" The Rev. Dr. BeujAuim W.
