A QUARRELSOME SWAN.

The following remarkable fact occurred in the park of Lord Grantley at Wcnersh, near Guildford. A fawn, drinking, was suddenly pounced upon by one of the swans, which pulled the animal into the water and held it under until quite drowned. This was observed by the other deer in the park, and did not long go unrevenged, for shortly after this very swan, which had hitherto never been molested by the deer, was singled out when on land, and furiously attacked by a herd, which surrounded and Presently killed the offender.
