LITERARY INTELLIGENCE. 
For some moments Mr. Turner lay upon the rock insensible; but a voice from 
two Europeans, exclaiming, “ Turner’s killed!” roused him, and, jumping up on 
his feet, he cried out, “ I’m worth twenty dead men yet! ”—Being taken into the 
camp, his wounds were carefully examined and dressed, and happily pronounced 
not mortal. The result justified the decision, for, by careful treatment, Mr. Tur¬ 
ner so far recovered as to be able to re-visit the scene of the battle, in about a 
month from the period when it took place. The dead body of the Tiger was 
found, the morning after the affray, upon the bank of a small rivulet, whither 
he had gone to quench his thirst. Mr. Turner very naturally observes, that the 
recollection of this perilous conflict, though more than thirty years have now 
rolled over since its occurrence, is still frequently attended with mingled emotions 
of wonder and terror.
