M Wu, that, from some cause,
J fi J™ 1 P | k'tely severed above me, and
it in, when a wild cry arrested my attention.
Looking up in alarm, to my horror I perceived,
afar over the lake, a monstrous bird cleaving
thft air in the exact direction of the spot where
I stood.
“Merciful God! shall I ever forget that ago-
nixing moment, as the whole peril of my situa
tion rose at once to my view ? Alone upon that
rocky point, cut off from my friends, with the
monster bird, like a thing of evil, swooping on
ward to my destruction »
“ But though terrified to a degree which I
may not express, I was not one to give up with
out a struggle, and hastening back to tbc care
like opening, I drew my revolver, and awaited
the coming onset.
“ I had not long to wait With an awful
shriek, which echoed from crag to crag, tho en
raged condor made a fierce dash at mo; and os
she came swooping down, I leveled my pistol
with as deliberate an aim as my excited nerves
would permit, and three times poured its lead
en contents into her breast, ere, with her claws
deeply fixed in my quivering flesh, she struck
at me with her beak.
With the energy of suffering despair, I now
drew my keen dirk with one hand, and with
the other grasped the running vine, to prevent
my antagonist from dragging me over the lodge,
and again and again did I bury the pointed
blade in her l»ody, seemingly without effect;
and while she still appeared to fight as fiercely
and actively as at first, I found myself fast
growing weaker and more incapable of defence.
My strokes now began to be made with less
force, and my hold on the vine seemed loosen
ing ; my knees, too, began to tremble, and I felt
my strength going from roe.
“God have mercy on my soul!" prayed I, at
length, ns with a last, despairing thrust, I buri
ed my knife to the haft in the throat of my
feathered foe.
“With the blow I fell; and it appeared to me
at the time as if I was falling swiftly down the
dark abyss, while the winged monster was tear
ing my throat, and uttering hoarse, unearthly
screams, and down, down wc went, till I struck
to the bottom of a terrible chasm, and all grew
dark around me.
“When I awoke to consciousness I was lying
on tiie floor of the cave, and the condor, stiff in
death; lay beside me. The last blow I had
struck at the bird had driven the blade of the
dirk in between two of the cervical vertebne,
thus severing tho spinal column, and causing
instant death.
“But what were my feelings on looking a-
rouiid nto? The sun was setting more glori
ously than I had ever seen it before, but not a
single sound broke the gloomy and awful si
lence which reigned solemnly over the scene.
Wounded, faint, bleeding and despairing, I sat
and watched tiie distant peaks becoming more
and more indistinct, till at last all surrounding
objects were hidden in a dense black gloom;
and as star after star gleamed brightly in the
blue vault above, and my ininil recurred to my
awful doom, cut off untimely from the world
below, my very reason seemed to totter on its
throne! ’ Yes," what hope had I now! 1 My
friends, believing me dead, had gone hence to
return no more—the guide* would add my rash
adventure to his wondrous tale—and my bones
would bleach uncoifincd upon the rock of my
folly!
“With a deep groan I dropped my head upon
my breast, but as I did so, my oyc caught the
nent a few paces, and presently you would hear
quick, sharp, short steps, and his adversary
would be pressed back in return. The strug
gling was hard, was long, was savage. For a
while neither obtained an advantage.
Hitherto they had been pushing each other
lengthwise of the bridge; suddenly they began
to wheel, and in a moment were facing each
other crosswise. They were at right angles
with the length of the old bridge, which shook,
and creaked, and rocked again with their tram
ping and their terrible strife. It was the work
of a single moment; one of tjjc beasts—I never
could tell which—one of them, however, as if
conscious of his ]iosition, made a violent, a des
perate plunge forward, and pressed his antago
nist back—back—back—tili there was but an
other step of the plank behind him—between
him and nothing! The moment was one of in
tense interest to us juvenile spectators. Never
was the amphitheatre of Borne the scene of a
more exciting combat Another step backward;
yes, the unfortunate hull has been forced to
take it! Back he is pressed, and over he
goes!
Such a sight I never saw—I probably shall
never see again. Imagine a bull pitched back
ward over a bridge, andfailingatlcast thirty feet;
over and over! He turned once or twice, prob
ably; I thought he turned fifty times, there
seemed such a confusion of horns and iect re
volving, flying through the air. But down he
went; the water was deep, and lie disappeared,
leaving n whirlpool of foam behind him, and
making the river undulate far and wide with
the concussion of his ponderous hulk.
The other bull did not laugli—merely be
cause bulls, as I supposed, could not. But we
laughed and shouted our applause. There stood
the victor, looking directly down into the abyss
below, into which he-had hurled his unlucky
foe. He stood, however, but a moment; and
then, as if frightened at the prospect, he began
to snort and step backward. Back—back—lie
retreated, with his head in the same pugnacious
attitude as when in coinbat—back—still anoth
er step hack—and over he, too, went on tho op
posite side of the bridge, performing just as
many and as ludicrous somersets as his adver
sary had done a minute before.
It was a scene to remember; and the perfor
mance called forth immense applause from the
-roup of juvenile amateurs who witnessed it
in about five minutes both hulls might lie seen,
well sobered by their ducking, dripping wet,
scratching up the steep, gravelly banks, eacli
on his own side of the river. “Thoso lndts will
never fight any more,” said a boy behind me.
His prediction turned out correct; for two more
peaceably disposed bulls than they were, ever
afterwards, could not have been found.
ward it, hoping to catch the shadowy form of a
human being near it, for I knew some one must
be there.
“A faint hope sprung up in my breast Might
it not bo my companions who, giving me up
for lost, had returned to tiie spot from which
our guide had pointed out to us the nest? Hope
grew with the thought, ami drawing my re
maining pistol, I fired each chamber in succes
sion, hut alas! no sound came back save the
echo of the mocking peaks.
“Great God! was I to perish within sight of
human beings, without one endeavor being
made to rescue me! 1 The very thought was
maddening; ami it swept like living fire through
my aching brain, it suddenly occurred to nte,
with a feeling of relief that no language can ex
press, that perhaps I might fire the npst, and
titus let those below know that there was a hu
man being perishing for want of aid.
“With trembling eagerness I struck a light,
kindled somo light dead leaves and crawling to
the nest, placed them against it For a moment
they seemed to die qqt, and then sprung into r
light i)la/.e—the dried twigs soon caught, and

eventful night, nor tho almost maddening anx

followed the dawn. Suffice it to say, that a
little before noon my friends were standing up
on the rock above me, prepared to restore roe
to tho world of life.
“Pushing tho condor over the ledge, I crawl
ed to the spot whore I hod been lowered the
day before, and while adjusting the rope secure
ly around my body, I beheld with surprise the
dead bird circling, like a living thing, gradually
down toward tiie lake; her stiflfened wings
having expr tdod in a manner to effect a slow
and graceful descent from the rocky bight ^

sunset we were aft once more safely down on
tiie lake shore, where I found tho pnxe which 1
had won at so much peril, and which it is my
design ever to preserve as a curious memento or
what I suffered in its capture.

our glasses, “ is the history of the terrible bird
which now hangs so harmlessly in my cabinet

I remember onoe seeing, when a lad at school,
a fight between two bulls. Although I conlu
not have been more than eight yews of age, I
shall never forgot the spectacle. It happenoti
in this wise 1 Close by the schoolhouse—a very
unpretending edifice it was—ran a deep and
rapid river. Across it had been thrown a high
wooden bridge, the liand-railing of which time
ind the winds and the water had entirely dt*-
troyed. The land on the opposite sides of the
stream was owned by different persons and farm-
ed by them respectively. One bright summer
,Uy—I remcmlier it as if it were yesterday—
the hour of noon had arrived, and a frolicsome,
fun-seeking troop of school-boys were let loose
for an hour’s recreation.
AH at once tiie bellowing and ronnng of two
bulls, that had broken qut of theif enclosure on
each side of the river attracted our attention.
The animals vperc nqt yet in right of each other,
but were approaching along the highway at a
ratfc of speed which would cause them to meet
near the centre of the high bridge which I hay®
described, and benoatli which, at some thirty
feet, ran the river, betwoen steep banks. The
more daring of as gathered new the hndge, li
ning it to sec the anticipated fight. W e were
not disappointed.—Nearer and nearer they ap
proached, tbc proud, pnwing combatants. Hash-
an never produced two brutes of fiercer aspect
They lashed their sides with their tails, they
tore the ground with their feet Occasionally
thev kneeled down, frying to gore the earth
with their horns. And as yet they were con
cede! each from the e ther, by the ascent to
the bridge at cither end. , ,
Presently, as they simultaneously nsccmieu
the respective abutments, they came full in sight
of eacli other. The roar was mutual and actu
ally tremendous. Every urchin °f us spang
into the fields and ran. Finding; however, that
we were not pursued, we hastily retraced our
steps. There they were, the ferocious dudista,
quite as sensibly employed as some of their hu
man imitators.—Front to front, their horns
locked every muscle strained, they were ngnt*
ingas onlv bulls carUbht It seemed an even
match. Now one would press back bis oppo-

A short time since,a young man living in ()g-
dcnsburgli, N. Y., whose name we shall call
George, took tn drinking rather moic than usu
al, and some of his friends endeavored to cure
him. One day when lie was in rather a loose
condition, they got him into a room, and com
menced conversing about delirium tremens, di
recting all their remarks to him, and telling liim
what fearful objects such as snakes and rate,
w ere always seen by the victims of this horrible
disease. When the conversation had waxed
high on this theme, one of the number stepped
glimmer of a small tiro far down in tbc dark- out of the room, and from a trap which was at
ness. Eagerly I strained my feverish eyes to- hamllct a large rat into tiie room. None of his
friends appeared to see it but the young man who
was to fie the victim seized a <*hair and hurled
t at the rat, completely using up tlu> piece of
furniture in the operation. Another chair shar
ed the same fate, when his friends seized him,
anil with terror depicted in their faces, deman
ded to know what was the matter.
“Why, don’t you see that cursed big rat!”
said he, pointing to the animal, which, after the
manner of rate, was making its way around the
room, close to the walls.
They all saw it, hut all replied that they didn’t
see it—“there was no rat”
“But there is!" said he, as another chair went
topiccos, in an ineffectual attempt tocursh the
obnoxious vermin.
At this moment they again seized him, and
after a terrific sculfic threw him down in the
floor, and, yvith terror in their facet!, screamed;
“Charley, run for a doctor!” , _

desired to & informed “wlint the devil was

“I'p"! said they, “why, you’ve got the delir

“Charley opened the door to go out, when
eteurge raised himself to his elbow and said,
“Charley where arc you going! 1 ”
“Going for a doctor!" rejoined George; •‘for

“For what?” repeated Charley, “why, jWv.

deliriumtrcmens ?”
“Easy Enough,” says Charley: you’ve com
menced seeing rats.”
“Seeing rats!” said George, in a sort of mus
ing way; “seeing rate. Think you must lie
mistaken. Charley,”
“Mistaken ? n
“Yes, mistaken," rejoined George. “J ain’t
the man—I haven't sttn no rat!"
Tiie boys let George up after that, anil from
that day to this he hasn’t drank too much liquor,
and hasn't seen no rats”—not the first rat—

Our folks have got a Biddy of tiie vcritablest
kind. She was a queer duck, anil good natur-
was c:l as a liasket of Chips. Well, last Sunday, :;s
wc were sitting down to dinner, we found the
old cal with three young grimalkins, largely en
gaged in the nursery business under the table.
“Biddy,” said we, “take this cat and her kit
tens and put them where we shall never sec
them any more.” A hint of clrcadftil import,
but not understood.
“Faith, sir, an’ that I will.”
The feline family were removed, and wc pro
ceeded to dine. By-and-by Biddy re-entered,
with an expression on her face that seemed to
say, “bedail, I guess they’re in safe-keeping
now.” , ...
“Well, Biddy, what haye you done with the
qld cat and kittens?"
“Be gor, sir, they’re *»fe enough, sure- D’ye

I put them all in there, and fastened tho doors
and windics. Then seeing there was a hole be
side where they might get oul I stopped that
up too, and so, you see, they wont trouble yuo
Anv more.”
*We were satisfied, of course, and we ate our
dinner in peace; afterwards walked into the
yard where wc saw the identical old cat and her
three kittens at liberty. Calling Biddy, wc
said:
“Did you not say you fastened the cat in the
wood house ?”
“Faith, an’ I did, sir.”
“And stopped the hple ?"

Kciiiitrltitble Instance of Canine In-
STINCT.
Wc were informed by a eliable individual of
a singular incident that occured a few days ago
at Trenton, a station on the Detroit and Toledo
railroad. A little girl about two years of age, a
child of a brakesman living near the road, got
upon the track and was in the act of crawling
across the timbers that span a cattle guard,
when an expn s train appeared in sight com
ing at full speed. The engineer saw tiie child
and whistled down the breaks, but the train
was under such headway and sq near, its de-.
struction would have been inevitable, had not a
little do", a playmate of the child’s, ran out
cau"ht the child by its dress and dragged it from
thc‘track r into the ditch, where it held it until
the train passed by! This is one of the
most remarkable occurences we have heard or
in a long time, and one we could hardly credit
coming from a less reliable source.—Detroit

■ A Ctirtl from Dr. Ja.mcs HI. Jnr-
"RETT, OF THE NEW YORK LUNG INFIRMA
RY.—My connection for the past eight years with
the above Institution, as Chief Physician, and a
twelve years’ course of steady devotion to the cure
of Pulmonary Consumption and its kindred diseases,
together with my unrivalled opportunities and ad
vantage of pathological research—aided not a little
by a perfect system of Medical Inhalation—has en
bled me to arrive at a decisive, direct, and success-
ful coarse of treatment for the positive and radical
core of all diseases of the Throat, Lungs, and Air-
Passages. By inhalation, the vapor and curative
properties of medicines are directly addressed to the
diseased organs and the integument. I do not ad
vise the use of Medical Inhalation of any kind, to
tho exclusion of general treatment ; and although I
consider it a useful adjuvant in the proper manage
ment of those fearful and often fatal diseases, yeti
deem it very necessary that each patient should have
thebenefil of both general and local treatment. The
success of my treatment in the above diseases, and
the high character of the Institution over which I
have so long had Ihe honor to preside, are too well
known to need any eulogy or comment from me.—
_ lpported, ,
after due consideration, I have concluded to make
each arrangements as will bring the benefits of my
experience and treatment within tho reach of all.
and not confine myself, as heretofore, to thoso only
who entered the Infirmary, or who wereableto visit
me at my office. Hoping therefore that the arrange
ment will give entire satisfaction, both to my pro
fessional brethren and the public, I would respect
fully announce in conclusion, that I can note he con
sulted personally or by letter, on all diseases as above
and that the medicines, the same as used in the In
etitntion, prepared to suit <ach individual case. Inha
ling Vapors, Medical Inha'ert, 'Ac., Ac., will be for
warded by express to any part of the United States
or the Canadas. Terms.—My terms oftreatment by
letter are aa follows, viz: (T2 per month for each pa
tient, which will include medicine sufficient for one
month's use; also, Inhaling Vapor, and an Inhaling-
Apparatus, Payment as follows: So to be paid to
Express Agent on receipt of the box of Medicine,
and the balr.nce 96 at the expiration of the month, if
the patient be cured or is entirely satisfied with ths
treatment. Patients, by givinga full history of their
case, and their symptoms, in full, can be treated as
well by letter as by personal examination. Patienta
availing themselves of Dr. Jarrett's treatment may
rely upon immediate and permanent relief, as he
seldom has to treat a case over thirty days Letters
for advice promptly answered. For further partic
ulars address JAMES M. JARRETT, M. D.,
No. 820 Broadway, cor. Twelfth St. N. V.
P. S.—Physicians and others visiting the'city are
respectfully invited to call at tho Infirmary, where
many interesting cases can be witnessed, and where

cated vapor can be seen and inspected. s
