[" = 80ru YEAR.\u2014NO.297.AN EXCITING CONTEST, Deadly Struggle Between a Mountain Lion and a Btallion.In connection with a receut despatch from Lander, Wyoming, telling of n fight between a Black Hawk Stallion and a mountain lion, the following details will prove interesting : The stallion was owned Ly a well- known hunter named Ferguson, who was camped on the banks of a tributary of the Wind River up among the mountains.A little distance froin his cuup stood a cottonwood treo, npart from all the others, beneath which was picketed the stallion, Ferguson was awakened during the night by a loud neigh from the stallion, which seemed to be one of rage than alarm.Ferguson RUSHKD OUT OF HIS TENT, and looked in the direction of the horse, which seemed, in the bright moonlight, to be intently regarding some object in the tree, Suddenly the branches were agitated, a wild yell was heard, a dark object hurled itself through the air, and the horse Lind an enormous mountain lioy for ærider.The horse sprang madly into the air uttering a scream little inferior to that of the lion in shriliness and savagery.Though he returned to the ground again with a tremendous concussion he failed to dislodge the lion.Dark spots of blood now appeared on the stallion's shoulders and neck.The lion was tearing its way to the jugular The horse, APPARENTLY REALIZING ITS FULL DANGER, sprang straight into the thick tangle of boughs.The lion was torn from his hloody seat and dushed backward with great violence.The siallion passed through and turned to confront his foe in the open space beyond, The lion speedily recovered itself and sprang once mare into the branches and from thence male another leap towards the horse, but he missed his aim.The lion began a series of circles ucarer and nearer towards the horse, and finally made another leap.With the rupidity of thought, the stallion changed front, und his hind feet, heavily shod, struck the lion full on the breast.The stricken animal rolled over and over, yelling with pain and rage.Once more he made un attack.This time THE LION RUSHED TO HIS DEATII.The heels of the powerful steed were planted fairly between the green eves, and the mountain lions skull was crushed, fractured from side to side.A few convulsive struggles a powerful stiffen ing of the limbs in death, and the stallion stood victor over the corpse of the lion.ce The Order of the Garter, A contemporary announces that there are two Garters vacant, and that Lord iddesleigh will get one.Mr.Labouchere says this is nonsense.Only one Garter 18 vacant\u2014the late Duke of Abercorn\u2019s \u2014for all the vacancies were filled up by Mr.Gladstone the week hefore he went out of office.Lord Beaconsfield\u2019s stall (which some benighted people suppose is still empty) has been filled by the Duke of Grafton for the last three years.The first names for Tory blue ribbons are the Dukes of Norfolk, Buccleuch, and Aber carn.He hears that Lord Salisbury would be glad to confer some distinction ou Lord Bath, who, however, is out of fashion at Court on account of his active and, bitter opposition to Lord Beacons field.\u2014\u2014\u2014 A Oomplicated Clock.A clock, rivalling in mechanism the celebrated Strasburg clock, has recently been brought from Germany, It occupies & 8 of 200 cubic feet, its weight, 1,600 pounds, and it has 265 wheels.It is kept in motion by one pendulum and twelve weights.Of the latter the first is wound up every eight daysand the last at the end of 2000 years.The dial plate indicates soconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years, and leap year from the year 1 to 10,000.There are besides, 122 movable figures, appearing at certain times.Among them are representations of old Father Time, the four ages of man, Death, the guardian angel, the twelve apostles, the seven heathen deities, the twelve signs of the zodiac, the four seasons of the year, the four phases of the moon, the globe and incidents in the life of Christ, \u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014 Tt is proposed in Paris to%erect a,velodrome, a covered track, for bicycles and tricycles.DAIL QUÉBEC MONDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1883 YACHTING.English Yachts Likely to Oross the Atlantic in 1886.The Galutea, which is to contest for the America Cup, ix a steel cutter designed by J.Beavor Wehb, the designer of the Genesta.She is 90 tons burden and was built on the Clyde at Port Glasgow during the early part of the year, She hus wou repute us a racer, She is 90,40 in length, 15.0 in depth, and has a bean of 13.13.Her builders are J.Reed & Co.Her sails are by Laythorne, the well-known sailmaker.The Irex is a composite cutter, designed by G.A.Richardson, and built in 1884 at Southampton by J.4.Fay & Co.From that port she hails, and is owned by John Jameson.Bhe in 74 groas tons and 67 net.Her dimensions are: Length, 88.0;

several were taken out dead, and others so budly crippled that they were sold for a nominal sum, The other forty-two liead were sold to a commission man, and in a few hours were converted into beef.On Monday a well-known sheep buyer was arrested for keeping 119 head of sheep from Thursday till Monday without giving thew anything to eat or drink.ee Monument to McCullough.The McCullough monument in Philadelphia will be raised above a crypt containing twelve catacombs.The super- struction will be of Nova Scotia granite in the style of the Roman Empire.The central figure will be a statue in bronze of McCullough as Virginius, It will stand on a black marble pedestal aix feet high, upon the entablature of which will be scenes, in bas-relief cast in bronze from the \u201cGladiator,\u201d \u201cVirginius,\u201d \u201cBrutus,\u201d and \u201cRichard I11.\" fame in bronze will cap the monument.The structure will cost $21,500, coutri- buted by thirty-nine friends of the late actor, and will measure forty-two feet from the base to the wing tips of the upper statue.The base will be thirty- nine feet broad.\u2014 Accidents on Slippery Sidewalks.Toronto, Dec.19\u2014Dr.Ramsay, of Orilla, fell on a slippery sidewalk on Yonge street and broke his leg.Mr.Owen Cosgrove, contractor, also fell on King street and met with a similar misfortune.This will likely result in two suits against the city for damages.\u2014\u2014\u2014 ee Nervous Debilitated Men, You are allowed a fair trial of thirty days of the use of Dr.Dye's Celebrated Voltaic Helt with Electric Suspensory Appliauces, for the dy relief and permanent cure of Nervous bility, loss of Vitality and Manhood, and kindeed troubles.Also, for many other Complete restoration to health, 00d guaranteed.No risk is all discases.vi and mani ly Illustrated pamphlet, with full u- formation, terms etc, mailed Im Marshall address ing Voltaic Belt Co, A statue of | AN ALARMING DIsiASE AFFLICTING A NUMEKOUS CLASS.The disease commences with a slight de -nge- «nent of the stomach, but, if neglocted, ivio time involves the whole frame, embracing the sidueys, liver, pancreas, and, in fact, the entire wlandular system, and the sfBleted drags out a \u2018wiscrable exis.cnce until death gives relief from suflering The disease is often mistaken for ther complaints ;
