which
occurred about the 1st of December,
at
All. W ' rnsirl PTinfi?
Mr. W 's residence:
I The tiger was first discovered qn the
premises of Mr. James Drake, who lives
xi. . xi. ..a: e t r n x
in Hie norm puinuu ui ucueisuu uuuuLy,
where it entered ins enclosure, attacKed
his horses, and killed one, besides wound
ing two others. While the tiger was
committing its depredations, it was dis
covered by Francis Drake, sou of the
proprietor of thc premises, who fired a
shot gun at it, wounding it in the side, but
not dangerously, when it made its escape.
The next day, while Mr. and Mrs. Wil
liams were sitting in their house, (the
rest of the family absent,) they were start
led by a strange noise in the yard, in
front of their house. Mr. W., on
going
out, discovered his dog eng;
a
tiger, when he seized an ox-yoke and
aimed a blow at the "varmint," but, mis
sing it, struck his dog. Thc dog then
got away from the tiger and retreated.
In an instant the tiger sprung on Mr.
Williams, and, seizing him by the hand,
jerked him about twenty feet. The old
gentleman finding himself in the too pow
erful grasp of the wild animal, courage
ously determined to give it the best
"rough and tumble fight" in his power,
and, having no weapons within reach, he
seized the tiger by the throat with his
other" hand, and, throwing his whole
strength forward, crushed the tiger to
thc ground, both falling side by side.
At this time Mrs. Williams came to the
rescue, with a gun, which she snapped at
the tiger, but, there being no priming in
thq pan, it did not go off. Mr. W. then,
with one arm round the tiger's body,and
grasping its throat with his other hand,
by an effort, disengaged himself. The
tiger discovering a new ad ve sary in thc
person of Mrs. W., jumped at her, and at
tempted to grasp her head within its jaws,
while it struck and lacerated her breast
with its fore paws. She tried to avoid
the monster, but was felled to the ground.
The tiger made another grasp at her head,
his urJfier teeth penetrating at the top of
the scull and sliding along the bone,
peeled off the skin till they met the lower
teeth, penetrated on the right side of her
face.
In thc meantime, Mr. W. had seized
the ox-yoke again, and, giving the tiger
a tremendous blow, caused it to leave
Mrs. W.; when it leaped into the house
and got under the bed. The door was
immediately closed and the monster se
cured. Mr. AY., was exhausted fromthe
effects of his wounds, from which the
blood flowed in streams; but not so his
better half. When she saw their mutu
al foe thus attempt to take possession of
their house, she determined to finish the
battle, and, notwithstanding the severity
of her wounds, her dress almost entirely
torn from her person, and covered with
blood, she deliberatelr took the gun.and,
shaking some powder from the barrel in
to the pan, placed the muzzle between
one of the openings which the logs of the
house afforded, and fired with steady and
deadly aim. The tiger was killed.
When subsequently measured, it was
found to be 'twelve feet from the tip of
its tail to its nose.
During all the time the fight was going
on, no one but those engaged in it were
within hearing. Mr. W.'s nearest neigh
bor lives three miles off. However, as
Mrs. W. was washing the blood from her
person, a neighbor came riding by, and,
alarmed at her appearance, inquired the
cause. The old lady, unable from the
loss of blood to speak, pointed to the
dead body of the tiger.
The escape of Mr. and Mrs. Williams
is indeed wonderlul, and they are now
recovering gradually from their wounds.
Mr. V. jokes about the tiger fight, and
intimates that the old lady was most en
raged when the "varmint" took posses
sion of his bed and house. It need hard
ly be added that Mr. Williams is a brave
man. He fought the British at New-Orleans,
and subsequently the Mexicans; in
tue cause ot Texas; but this last fight is,
peruaps, the most singula? or all. llis
wife, in intrepidity and daring, is worthy
of him, and the two, together, are of that
courageous class that have encouutered
forest wilds and frontier dangers the
pioneers of Christian civilization and A-
mcrican institutions.

Important Opinion
An important opinion has just been de-
levered by Judge Woodward, of the Su-
preine Bench, relating to partnership
property. The following portion of the
opinion will give an idea of the principle
laid down. Thc Judge say$ :

or one partner can sell and deliver no
part of the partnership goods, but only
. the contingent interest or the debtor part
( ner in the stock and profits after settle
I mcnt of partnership accounts and pay
( ment of partnership creditors, is a con
( elusion that results necessarily out of the
I principles of the partnership relation, and
is sanctioned by a great number of mod
ern decisions both in England and the
1 United States. What are some of the
principles of this relation! It is a con
tract relation, and therefore no partner
' can be introduced into it except upon
consent. A purchaser at a sheriff's sale
of a partner's interest becomes a tenant in
common with the other partners, so far as
to entitle him to an account, but he does not
become a partner. On the contrary, the
sale works a dissolution of the partner-
, ship, as completely as thc death, insanity,
i or bankruptcy of a partnership.
I "Partners are joint tenants of all thc
' stock and effects employed in their busi-
I ness. No partner can have a separate
interest in any part of the property be
longing to the partnership, though each
has an entire as well' as joint interest in
the whole of the joint property. A levy,
then, to effect the interest of a partner,
cannot touch a specific proportion of the
goods, nor the whole, because others have The account of William Huston and

On Thursday the 20th ult., the Police
of Philadelphia captured several counter
feiters, white and black, at the "Gap," in
Lancaster county. A very large amount
of spurious bills were found upon them-

tor Bank; also some spurious gold dollars.

the vast number of testimonials with which

conclusive, that a more ehectual remedy for

Who sleep within the armB of death
E'er yet the chilling wintry breath
Of sorrow o'er them blows;
But weep for them who here remain,
The mournful heritors of pain,
Conderan'd to see each bright joy fade
And mark griefs melancholy shade, '
Fling o'er Hope's fairest rose."'
