Lion Htjjvftina In Ka.Ttiawar. (From The...
LION HTJjVfTINa IN KA . TTIAWAR . ( From the « Overland Telegraph . ' ) In the burning month of June three of us left camp at Bajkote , and pitched our ' tents at Leah , where we found Wg very nnmefo ' us ; and notwithstanding the thick jungle , we managed to make a few porkers bite the dast . The rains falling dispersed the party , two returning to camp , when I wended my way northward , and established myself at t ) rangdra . On the 19 th , wHHe munching my solitary dinner in the evening , my Puggeo came in bringing with him a Bhurwan , who informed mo that whilo driving his herd homewards , a largo lion sprung on and killed one of his cows
. 20 th . Rose at , daylight , and . much , against the persuasion of the Mahodt , Peer Khan , mounted the elephant , and proceeding abont one mile to the northtfOBt - of the city , the dead cow was pointed out from a small eminence , and on its remains were feasting a fine lion and lioness , which walked offo * n my attempting to go within decent shooting distance of them . and as the sowars sent after me by thfe Rajah had missed me in the Jungle , the JantfuFa were soon invisible . After several hour'fl pugging , I again sighted them about loO yards off making way at a quick walk ; and after a fruitless search-, wo returned to the tents , having learnt { as the Mahdot bad Foretold )
that the cool of the moniing is hot the most favourable ihne for lion shootings 21 st . The PnggieS came in at eleven p . m ., and reported a Hon marked down , near the same place we had found one yesterday . At starting , the day was threatening , and ere we reached the ground the rain came down accompanied with a storm of thunder and lightning . The lion was ly ing under a clump of the Euphorbia Autiquarium , with bis head b ' etWlien Ws paws J when the elephant was pushed n ^ within ten feet of him , he arose , and at , ' tho same , moment received , a Ijall into , his chest . The enraged animal , WI & a loodroar ,. showed tail ; . and rocked-likB fairly dived through the enormous mass of Euphorbia hashes under which he had been tying , and which one
would haVe fancied would have proved a stopper to an elephant . The lion now making an . opposition thunder , with his roaring tail and mane erect-, = charged first at one horseman , then at another , until he bad increased the bircuihferehce o ! their circle pretty considerably , wh ' en he topi shelter under a hush . On the elephant approaching within fifty yardsi down he came in gallant style , and was only induced to turn by & ball right through him , when nearly under the elephant ' s truhl . He now lay down under a bank , ahd an unfortunate horseman going up too near , the lion charged asif unhurt , and , after achase of abont one hundred yards , making a succession of bounds , boned the horse , which fell near the elephant , when I checfoa Ihe lion with another ball , and the
horse ( since deed ) and his rider escaped , tho former much mangled , and tbe latter ' s back scratched by the animal's claws . After this he charged ohce or twice more ; and only fell after two more balls , the last into bis brain , t returned td tehj j thoroughly drenched . When the fionwas brought in and was . being ikinnedi . many app lications . were made for a " little of the fat , the whiskers and claws ; all of which ate , in some way or another , use for medicinal piirposes by the natives . , 22 nd . Found at fiahdooree-ka-kote , on a small hill
und & r a large Euphorbia , a very large lioness j in the act of charging out ; she was knocked over by a single ball in tJie cnest , and rolled under the elephant ' s trunk ; at the same time ; a large bhck-rriaried lion and a yodng lioness hearty full-gr ' own bolted i and we followed , hut the sowars were too cautious to keep him long in sight ( from yesterday ' s accident ) , and he moved off whenever the elephant got within 150 yards of him . On returning we found a fine cub sucking the nearly dead lioness , and secured it ; wended home in heavy rain . At night shot a large male hyena .
23 rd . The black Hon was reported as seen entering a nullah of tall reeds at daybreak . These reeds reached , as we found , over the | howdah , on putting the elephant in ; and we were glad , after capturing another fine cub in the briar , to gei out again , the elephant sank so deep in the mud ; Sent for and procured about 200 buffaloes ( of the Rajah ' s ) and turned them in , and when after , hard work they came on the lion , he wounded one l . 7 them on the back , but only showed himself too far off and entered again ; when heavy rains obliged us to retire .

THE LOSS OF THE BIRKESHEAD . The following is an extract of a letter from Lieutenant Girardot , 43 d Light Infantry : — Slmon ' s-bay , March 1 .

I remained on * he Wreck Until she Went dnWn j the suction took me down , some vray , and a man get hold of my leg , but I managed to kick him offandcUme up , and struck off for . some pieces ot wood that were on the water , . and started for land , which was about two mileaoE I trag in tbe water about fire hours , as tbe shore iras so rocky , and tbe surf ran so high ; that a great many were lost trying to land . . Nearly all those that took to the water without their clothes 6 a were taken . by sharks ; hundre 8 & of them were all around us , and t saw men taken by them liuite close to me , but as lwns dressed "having oil a nannel shirland trousers ) they preferred the others . I was hot In the least hurt , and am happy to say kept my hhad clear ; most of tbe officers lost their lives from losing their presence of mind , andtrtinetotake money with them , and from
not throwing off their coats . There was no time to get tbe paddlebox boats down , and a great many mure might have been fared , but the boats that were got down deserted us and went off . From tbe time sbe struck to when she went down wes twenty minutes . When I landed I found an ifficer of the 12 th Lancers , who hud strum off with a Ufe-ptts « rver , ami fourteen meh , tfho had got on with bits ot WOOll lik ? myself . We walked dp the bohntrj elev « u miles to a farm belonging w Captain Smales , formerly of the Tib Dragoon Guards , who was very kind to os and all tbe men that were got on shore came up to him . I hope the " government will , make up our loss to n « , as 1 hare saved nothing , llelford . of ( he 6 th , the ensign I ipokeofaahavinc liis wife oh board 'with him , went down ; she , poor thing , was left here when the ship left lor B . ffalo Mouth ; I have just been to see her , and she looks more dead than alire , left all alone at this distance from her home , but we shall do all we can to be of service to her .

The Engineers' Strike; A Case Of Conside...
THE ENGINEERS' STRIKE ; A case of considerable importance to both masters and men has been brought under the consideration of the Hon . ( J t . C . A ' or'on , at tlld Larhbeth PoIice'cOUrt . Two men , named Francis Keeno and Richard Oram , operative engineers , and members of the Engineers' Amalgamated Society , were brought before that magistrate on a warrant , Olarging them with having assaulted James Goodman , one of their own class , in the employment of Messrs , Maudslay and field , the extensive engineers in Lambeth , James Goodman said ; - » I am an engineer in the employment of Messrs . " \ laud ? l . ty and Field . On Saturday last , the 10 th inst , I left my work at four o ' clock , and went alone tb tbe Tower piiblic-house . After I had been there
about ten minutes the two defendants came in together , and two others accompanied them . Tho defendants asked if there web many at work at our place ,. and I replied thdre Were a great number of them . They said , " I suppose you have signed the document" ( a declaration by those who have signed it that they had no connexion with the Amalgamated Engineers' Society ) , and I replied , * 'Yes . " Richard Oram addressed mo first . I , then added that we had a great number at work , and that a great many ot lie r * would like to come loo if they had a chance . They then ca led me all the "knohst i ' -ka" they could think of , and used bid language . A friend of mine named Gumming Was present , » nd he , addressing ihsm , said , " Why don ' t J 0 U let tbe ytJang man albhe ? " Up to tli s tim-s I had not spoken t ) t em , hut fiey immediately began during and swearing
at me as hard as tbey could . ( The witness here corrected himself by saying that Oram alone had used bad language to him . ) Gumming then went for a poli Oman , and the defendants fallowed him out , and I walked behind . I then Siwt » o friends of the defendants oh the opposite side of the way . All four came , across t'io ro id and run after Cummiiig , and struck him . Oram struck first . I received several blows on the noe , and whilo striking me the defendants made use of a ba'l expression , saying you are one of them . ( The witness exhibited marks on the face . ) In cross examination the witness said—I am not , and never was , a member- of the Amalgamated Society , but I did receive eighteen pence from them for eigUt days , lam not a working iiigineer , but an engineer ' s labourer . I will swear that before any words were spokdn by the defendants ,
neither Cummng . nor the others present , nor myself , nor anybody in the employment of Messrs . Maudslay , bej-an lhaking our pockets and ringing our money , I will swear that 1 did not see any money shown to the defendants . 1 did not hear anybody present say to the defendants , " You poor Amalgamated— . "No threats were used towards them , —James Joseph Gumming , an engineering labourer , ia the employment of Messrs . Maudslay and Field , corrobo * rated th : greater part of the statement of the last witn ; se . In ins cross-examination this witness said he never belonged to the Amalgamated Society , but bad received altogether 8 s . 3 d . all the time ho was "out . " He had never applied to the society lo support him . He made no direct application td the society , but understanding that the committee were' sitting at the Crown public *
house , he went there , ahd received 8 i . . out of . do nations received at two public-houses , and altogether only got 8 s . S . d—A witness named James "Swain said he saw the complainant and defendants standing near the end of the Watherloo-road on ttie day in quo . iiibn . The former hid his hands in his pocket * , and kept calling after tho latter that they bad money in them . A scuffle then ensued , but it was very soou over . This witness denied being a member of the Amalgamated Society , though 1 e acknowleged receiving money from the society .- — Stephen Shorthouse , a blacksmith , who was in company with the last witness , completely corroborated his evidenc , and added that the complainant put his finger to bis no a
and pointed towards tho defendants . This witness ao mitted being a member of the Amalgamated Society , and receiving pay from it . —Mr . Norton said it was clour that the evidence of tho complainant did not bring tho case within the terms of the Combination Act , and ho was U . « clinei to think they had in a great measure provoked the treatment they had experienced , by reason of tbeir having called after the defendants , and acted offensively towards them , after having parted peaceably . He should not , therefore , send the case to the sessions , but impose a fine of 20 s . each , and the cist of the warrant , or , in default , to stand committed to prison for twenty-one days each . —The fines were immediately paid , and the defendants at once discharged . ¦
