A British olf.eer who was at the battle of
New Orleans, mentions an incident of thrill
ing strangeness. and'verY descriptive of the
Western hunter% many of whom marched to
the defence of New Orleans as volunteers in
the army under the renowned Andrew Jack
son : .•
We marched, said the olicesi, in a solid

fence. We ei.uld distinctly see their lung
rifles lapin. over the bales. and Hie Watery
of Gen. Coffee diteatly in front, with its' great
mouth gapping toward as, and the position of
Gen. Jackson. with his staff around him.—
But villa attracted our attention moat was
the figure of a tall man standing on the
breastworks, dressed in linsey woolvey, with
buckskin leggin'. and a broad rimmed felt hat
that fell around his face, almost concealing
his factures. lie was standing in one of those
pleturesqUe and graceful attitudes peculiar
ttoltuse natural .uen-dwellers of the forest.—
The body rested on the left leg, and swayed
with a curled lino upwards: the right arm
was extended, the hand grasping the rifle
near the muzzle, the butt of which rested
near the toe of the right foot, while with his
hand he raised the rim of the hat from his
ayes u and licemed gazing from beneath in
lewdly upon our advancing column, The
canton of lien. Coffee had opened upon as,
and, tore through our ranks with dreadful
slaughter; but we gwitinuetl to advance, un-
:iriveriug and cool, as if nothing threatened
oar progress.
The roar of cannon seemed to have no effect
upon the figure standing on the cotton
but he seemed fixed and motionless as a statue.
At last he moved, threw back the hat rim
over the crown with his left hand, raised the
rifle to his shoulder, and took aim at our
group. Our eyes were rivited upon him. At
shorn had he levelled his piece? Bnt the
distance was segreat that we looked at each
other and smiled. We taw the rifle flash,
and my right band companion, as noble Lok
ing a fellow as ever rode at the head of a
regiment, felt, from his saddle. The hunter
painted' a few moments, without moving lia
rifle from his sitoolder, then reloaded and re
turned his former attitude. Throwing the
hit rim over his eyes and again holding it up
with the left hand - , be axed Itis piercing gaze
upon us as if hunting out another victim.—

t , A child. sores months old, was rottener

the western part of the State, having append
ed to its left cheek* large mass of flesh, some
what reetiali_, ling a tumor. This mass grew
more rapidly than the phild itself. At birth
it was no larger than an apple, but wlien
brought here hot month it was nearly a foot
long. Its surfaieewaa neither smooth nor re•
gular. but war divided into several globular
masses, while pulsation was distinctly percep
table, regular ant. uninterrupted. from forty
to a hundred beats. pier minute. It was tra
versed by a large artery, showing that it was
largely supplied with blood. The tumor was
connected to the chikrs cheek by a peculiar
caul-like membrane, pierced with holes.and
its presence was a source of constant irrita
tion to the child, though supported by the
mother's hat.d. how to remove this holm
tumor without destroying the life of the child
was the great surgical problem. The parents.
warned of the danger, were yet extremely
anxioos to have the, frightful parasite takes
of.. Dr Pancuast, under whose charge the
patient bad been placed, decided that the use
of the knife would result in a fatal hemorr
hage, and determined to divide the caul-like
membrane ley ming a rreach surgical instru
ment. the ecraseve, which, by forcing down
the skin. and le:uising the vessels thoroughly
before the chain of the instrument cuts
through the mass. egeetnally prevents all se
rious bleeding. The operation was performed
in presence of an immense assemblage of
medical men. Students and others.
"'I child was placed under the influence
of ether, when all pulsation in the parasite
was observed to cease. The instrument be
ing applied, the chain was rapidly worked
until the parts were well compressed, and a•
terwards very slowly. In fifteen minutes
the tumor came away with the instrument,
the chain baring worked through the Connec
ting membrane, while scarcely a drop of
blood followed the removal. and_but one small
yard required a ligature. The surface left
on the cheek was about two inches square,

was found to contain a living child, imper
fectly developed it is true, but still a living
child. Fingers were seen, and a portion of a
rudimentary arm. The intestines were well
developed, and no doubt was entertained of
its being a male child. A body, presumed
to be the heart, contained, imperfectly formed,

teries and veins were of large siie. The dis

The Yankee and the Dutchman's Dog
Abner was a quiet, peaceable sort of a
Yankee, who lived os the same farm on which
his father bad lived before him. and wagger'.
evilly considered a pretty. cute sort of a fel
low—ale-eve ready with a trick, whenever it
was of the utility ; yet when he did play
any of his tricks, 'twee dace in such an in
nocent manner, that his victim amid de no
better than bake it all is good part.
Now it happened that one of Abner's
.neighbOrs sold. a farm. to a tolerably green
epecitnes of a Datcbman—ooe ofthe real un
intelligent. stupid sort.
Von Vlomp ..Sehlops had a dog; as Dutch

not only to appropriate the soil comaion

work, as to obtain his dinner, from the vari

When Abner diseerered - this propensity in
the canine department of the Dutchman's
family. he called over to his new istighbor's
to enter complaint, which mission be Stcom
plished io the asst natural manner in the
world.
