BY STEAM attended to a lownhtet. Eaconater with two Wildcats, Mr. R. D. Simmons called at oar office Saturday last for the purpose of showing us a remarkable specimen of a wild animal which he had shot and captured a few since, while on a hunting excursion below this city, about thirty miles, near Hercnlaneum.

It was of the panther species, and measured ia body two and a half feet long, and about twenty inches high. It had a short stump tail, six inches in length, black and white spotted ears, grayish hair and large limbs, to which were attached Jong claws, of wonderful polish and sharpness. The details of! the capture of this ferocious naUveof the forest are thus related by Mr.Simjnons: He was armed with a double-barreled shot- of the barrels of which was Not dreaming for an instant of meeting such formidable game, he was sauntering leisurely along the autumn woods, depending upon a brace of hounds to arouse any game that might be in reach. Suddenly the deep bay of one of the broke the silence of the forest, and soon was joined by the answering voice of the other. Mr.

Simmons quickened his steps in the direction of the sounds, expecting to find a coon, 'poHsum, or squirrel, the object of his dogs' alarm. As he came in sight, and glanced upward, he observed at a height of about forty feet from the ground, lying along a limb of an oak tree, an animal which he at first supposed was a domestic cat. He stood, doubtingly, watching its movements for a short period, and then concluded to try the effect of a load of shot in its body, at all Simultaneously with the report of the gun, which reverberated far and wide through the wood, down tumbled the game, which no sooner had struck the ground, than both hounds attacked it with great The charge of shot had lodged in its side, and ita fall had also broken its back, yet its natural strength and ferocity were so great, that in a moment or two both dogs quit the contest and came cowardly and crouchmgly to their master's feet. Mr, Simmons, while the fight was raging, had been his gun, and when ready, fired another charge into the animal's body, which proved a death shot. He now went forward, and was surprised to behold the size and character of the animal that lay dead at his feet.

As he was reloading, and while his dogs were taking fresh courage and smelling around their once powerful enemy, he was startled by a crash in the leaves and dry brush in front of him, and looking up, beheldat the distance of about thirty feet, another animal which be at once thought to be the mate of tie female he had killed. It was crouching as if ready to make a spring, while its tail was lashing the ground behind, its hair erect, and its back and eyes flashing with rage. The situation: of Mr. 8. was very He knew his dogs were worthless against such a foe, and he felt certain that a charge from his shot-gun, instead of relieving him of his enemy, would but aggravate its wrath, and render the contest one of still greater desperation and danger.

Excepting the putting on of a cap, his gun was loaded. As he lifted up the butt of the piece to do this, the animal made a huge bound, and alighted within fifteen feet of where he stood. The dogs had fled. At this moment Mr. S.

remembered the popular belief; that the only way to conquer a ferocious beast was to look it full in the eye, and accordingly returned the fixed gaze of his enemy with all the resolution he could command. He then slowly stooped down, and seizing the dead wild cat by one of its legs, began a slow and deliberate retreat, not quitting for an instant his gaze, and depending solely upon his feet to guide him to ward an open field which lay at a short distance, next to the wood. The male wild cat followed, inch by inch, maintaining, however, a respectful distance, and awed, it seemed, by the superior look of Mr. B. The skirt of the wood reached, the animal pursued no further, and the hunter took his way with a brisker step and a lighter heart for home.

We suggest a grand hunt for this remaining wildcat of the Missouri woods. Can't we have something after the fashion of the old German -boar St Louis Democrat, Dee. 3. THE Star Insurance Oomp'y OP OUIKEHabkJicwiii To Oct. 1st, ittVftotmJaa.

Parsons of Barnstable, who left Lawrence, the headquarters of the free state men, Dec. 3d. That day, 700 men were under arms at 318 Missourians, at Wakausa Creek, seven miles off, were encamped, and had rifles, double bar- reled guns, and two cannon. Mr. Parsons met one company of 110 Missourians, just over the river, Dec.

4th, with arms, seven baggage wagons, and army stores. In the State of Missouri, he encountered a squad of 75 more, Dec. Gib, with 3 brass artillery pieces, which they had obtained by breaking open the arsenal in Clay county. The latter were drinking, violent men, wbo swore that Lawrence should be burned, and the damned abolitionists They seemed burning with rage, and thirsty for blood. Mr.

Parsons says the stories of houses being burned by the-free state men, and other violence committed by them, were all false. DEPARTURE OF MISSIONARIES. BOSTOS, Dec. 12. The following missionaries sailed to-day in the barquqSultana, for Mallaland Smyrna, Rev.
