He had reached the climax of Hindoo invective, whi invariably ends in epithets too indecent to be repeated, ev were it possible to translate the pe, uliar slang in wit they are expressed, and with the last volley he drove 1 e spear with all his force into the bear's body. A loud r was instantly heard, and she rushed from the den, her na tnral size immensely increased by every hair of her sha v coat standing erect. She wrenched the spear from I:er broad .chest, and with the shaft still between her ja s, brushed under Fukeera's feet, as he hung suspended, wliiie the balls poured in so close to his shaven head as to shr,nttl 11;m in a sheet of smoke and flame. Far from flinchi.t , :. „ '.tinder, he continued shouting alternate exclamations of thue and triumph till the death-knell of the expiring b?ar told him she was no longer dangerous. Before she had cc :e:! to breathe he dropped upon her body, and went to earti. Eke a terrier after the cubs, from which he soon re-appeared .tuaidst bursts of laughter, covered with dirt, and holding under each arm a young cub, struggling most vie ously for liberty. A third was found clinging fist to its mothci's hack, and although a ball .11t.d passed through its body, it still retained its hold, and eAlld not be torn awa X Kitt; out considerable force. Both of these bears had fallen tamely—the exciting part of the day's sport I‘as yet to come.

The Court unexpectedly sat this Good Friday from two o'clock till six, it le'ing deemed necessary to proceed with the-business, so that the Session may terminate this day (Saturday), the Assizes for the county commencing on Monday. William Burke, aged 61, a professed schoolmaster, was charged with robbing his Irish countryman, Daniel Harri gan, of a quantity of fur skins. The case excited roars of laughter, all parties, including the Counsel for the prisoner, being of " the Emerald Isle."

Mr. ANDREWS said it was with the deepest regret that he stated that the prosecutor and the prisoner stood in near relationship to each other, the prosecutor's brother being the father of the prisoner. When the fire occurred which formed the subject of the present inquiry, he (the Learned Counsel) was in a situation to show that a man had been seen in the neighbourhood of the premises by several people, both before and immediately after the very hour almost on which it broke out. He could prove that the dress worn by the man so seen corresponded with that in which the prisoner would he proved to have been clothed about that time, and under very peculiar circumstances. In addition to these circumstantial proofs, the prisoner had been for many years actuated by malicious motives towards his uncle ; he had written several letters so couched as to leave no doubt on the mind of the prosecutor that his life was in danger, and that at no distant period some most serious at tempt would be made upon him. Twice had he been un der the painful necessity of exhibiting articles of the peace against his nephew, on account of such conduct on his part, on the first of which occasions he had been committed to the town gaol in Cambridge for five months, for want of sureties to keep the peace. Daniel Hartigan, the prosecutor, told a plain story, that he was a dealer in fur-skins, living in St. Patrick's-alley, Borough ; that the prisoner was an mild Boman Catholic schoolmaster ; that he (prosecutor) had given him a lodg ing, and entrusted him occasionally with his house and chattels ; that during Dan's absence Burke stole the skins, which he had sold for a fifth of their value to buy whiskey. Prosecutor cross-examined by Mr.' MAtioN—Well, my noble cnunttyman . , you took in the mild schoolmaster out of pure Irish benevolence? Harrigan—l tuk 'im in, yer Honour's reverence, saving yer prisince, as I'd tuk in any ider (other) gentleman—jist as I wid tuk yer in.

" I care net how I am physicked, so it be not by the adventure if a !Inack, hut advice of a physician, who I am sure will prescribe no mere ,or me than may consist with my safety, and need doth require."— Old The Possessor of the Prescription from which these Pills are prepared, solely fur him, by Mr. John 'l'. Eddy, a scientific Chemist, obtained it from the late Dr. Armstrong, (Lecturer at St. Thomas's Hospital, London, and Author of the celebrated Works on Typhus and Scarlet Fever, &c. &e.) rer his Wife, who, in 1827, became the Doctor's patient, when evidently Labouring under confirmed Liver complaint, and to all appearance in a s eep di cline. She had not long taken the Pills, at the prescribed inter- , Lefore she was perfectly restored to health ; and has, with the °cwt. 11 0 , al use of them, continued free from pain, and in perfect health and !Leerful spirits ever since. The Possessor of this admirable Prescription (a Gentleman of private fortune), having distributed the Pills with the most extraordinary success amongst the Poor ip many Counties in England, determined in 1535 to Dffer them, at a price, to the public; Isis personal observation and expe rience having convinced him that they would prove a real blessing, if taken according to the Physician's Advice and Directions in the wrappor to all—both old and young, children as well as adults: women, pregnant, and after the month of confinement—who suffered from an inactive Liver, and thence all the attendant miseries of Indigestion ; Bilious Affect lions (so called) ,• Flatulence, Jaundice, Dropsy; Pain in the sides and under the Shoulder Blades; Difficulty of Breathing; distressing Sensa tion of Choking : with the complexion, and white of the eyes, yellow. The very first two pills generally afford such relief—such ease from every distressing pain—that the patient is at once surprised and delighted. The Medicine 13 gentle, though certain in its benign effects. The quantity prescribed to be taken is small, and not oftener than alternate nights. The attention of the public is called to the following statement of facts : .A cook, in a gentleman's family, complained to her mistress of such Pain in the right side, and such loss of appetite, that she could not do her work, and thought that she must again give up her situation, as she had been obliged to do for the same cause in two previ ,, us places. Her mis. tress recommended her to try Dr. John Armstrong's Liver Pills, as she laid all others had failed. The girl bought a box, and the first two pills re lieved her horn all pain, and she said she felt better than ever she had. done in her life. The first two operated briskly, the next two gently, and afterwards only as a pleasant aperient ; but the pain lever returned. A sailor's wife had only been a fortnight confined, and was suffering agonies in her back and sides, evidently owing tp an inactive Liver, her dkin being as yellow as saftton. A friend gave her some money to buy a box of Armstrong's Liver Pills. Wl.en that friend in need ' called to iee the poor woman again, she was surprisingly better—scarce any pain in tier side—no choking sensation—skin much clearer, and appetite and ge sera] health rapidly improving. A. magistrate, who was much troubled with boils, at the instance of a relative bought a box of Armstrong's Liver Pills. Before he had taken iix pills at the prescribed intervals, he was astonished at his perfect cure, and declared it was the best medicine he ever took in his life. Jaundice and Dropsical cases immediately relieved. Hundreds of similarly striking cases might be noticed, but for the spasm _they occupy in an advertisement ; and each bilious person who tries these P.Us (most expensive io their preparation to the proprietor) will furnish a taco satisfactory and convincing case of cure or relief to himself.

" We observe with what delight a Child beholds light—eolours— flowers—fruit, and every new object that meets his eye • and we all know, that (before his judgment be permitted to interfere) for many years he feels—or rather suffers—a thirst which is almost.

Considerable interest has lately been excited here amongst the members of the medical profession, by the admis sion of a patient into the Royal Infirmary, who reported that she had swallowed a brass padlock I The patient's history was as follows :—About fire weeks ago, whilst amusing herself with "a friend, she put the padlock into her mouth, and it in stantly slipped down her throat ! An emetic was soon after wards administered, which she founi great difficulty in swal lowing ; vomiting took place immediately afterwards, accom panied with great pain in the throat, and a discharge of blood. During the succeeding 24 hours she felt as if the padlock were wedged in the throat, and experienced a painful sense of suffocation, after which she felt little pain or inconvenience , and concealed the accident from her friends until Sunday the 19th ult. She was soon afterwards admitted into the hospital as a patient of Professor Lizar3, who, from the moment of her admission was of opinion the woman's report was accurate ; but, doubt existing in the minds of some of his colleagues, he deferred performing the operation for the extraction of the foreign body, which, in his opinion, was necessary to place the woman in safety. Saturday night the poor woman was attacked with violent vomiting, accompanied with a feeling of suffocation and great pain in the throat, which continued all night. Dr. Johnston, Professor Lizars's hospital assistant, was called at half-past two on Sunday morn ing, and, finding the patient in imminent and immediate dan ger, he instantly, and unassisted, introduced an instrument, invented for the purpose, into the gullet, and succeeded in ex tracting the padlock, to the immediate and complete relief of the sufferer. The padlock weighed upwards of six drachms (nearly an ounce), and measured an inch and an eighth in breadth and one inch and two-thirds in length ; with the ex ception of the iron part being covered with mit, it was in no way chanted in appearance.-- Caleclodian ,IVlercuryy.

Price of Tallow (as stated by the Tallow Melters , John Skeet--Remembers the fire. I was going very early (about three o'clock) to fetch my master's waggon, when the fire was not out, and I saw a man sitting on a bank in the field, near the Cambridge road, against a plan tation. He had on a dark dress, but I did not see his face, although I went close by him. The place was all in alarm, and people going about. After-this several witnesses were called, who took up the chain of evidence between ten and eleven next day, and conducted the proof against this man till he was traced to a place beyond a wood called Lawn's Wood, and thence beyond to Little Thurlow, when a witness, named Smith, swore to having seen a man so dressed, and whom he knew to be the prisoner, going along a wall near the village, to wards Mr. Mortlock's residence. This witness also deposed to having seen him go away so dressed on the 27th of Oc tober preceding, and take leave of his mother, he being at that time at work in her garden. On the Wednesday fol lowing his return home, he was taken up, on the charge of being implicated in the fire on his uncle's premises, and conducted to Cambridge gaol. The Rev. E. Mortlock proved the handwriting of the prisoner -to a letter, dated the 13th of April, 1835, in which were several very strongly worded passages, such as the following.:—" Do you think I have forgotten my prison, my abasement, my degradation, and my asso ciates ? By God ; you will find I have not. Do you think I will suffer you -to outrage me ? Do you and my other uncles think yourselves Gods, and more ? Curse your self-complacency." The recognizances were also put in, bearing date the 23d of August, 1834, for two years ; as also the articles of the peace exhibited against the prisoner, in April, 1836, by Mr. Thomas Mortlock, the prosecutor, in consequence of an other letter, addressed to his maternal uncle, Mr. Finch, of Cambridge. In this he alludes to his treatment at the hands of his uncle and all his family, whom he designates as " cold-blooded scoundrels." He then went on to deny that he had sent any threatening letter to the prosecutor, and daring him to the production of it if it existed, adding, " I can't forget my injury ;it consumes my brain. lam not malicious, but, by God, no one shall ill-treat me with impunity. I must not regard the laws, if they do cot pro tect me." And, in conclusion, he demands the advance of funds to pay some bills on or before the 26th of the next month, and a sum for private . use, threatening some revenge unless his terms are complied with. Evidence was also adduced of conversations in which he bad intimated his hatred of his uncle Thomas, and his in tention to be a " Thurtell to him." The case for the prosecution having closed, -Mr. Kiitt.v rose at half-past eight o'clock to address the Jury on behalf of the prisoner, whom he described as being in the most reduced circumstances, while the prose cutor was a man of unbounded wealth. After having commented upon the evidence of the first three or four witnesses, who spoke to the identity of the prisoner, the Learned Gentleman was interrupted, at half-past ten, by the jury, who intimated to his Lordship that they did not think there was evidence to convict the prisoner, and that their opinion was that he was—Not Guilty. The decision of the Jury was hailed by the shouts of the crowd in the Court, and echoed by those in the pas sages leading to the building ; and the prisoner, who is an extremely genteel and intelligent youth, of twenty-seven, with an air of strong determinatio❑ pourtrayed in his fea tures, and cast of countenance, was liberated -from his con finement, and received with tumultuous plaudits by sonic assembled friends, who all seemed to take a more than common interest in his behalf. During the day Mr. Justice PARK sat in the Nisi Fritts Court, and despatched some of the lighter eases, and it is to be hoped that, with the assistance of his Lordship, the ealenflar may be easily finished on Saturday. MIDLAND CIRCUIT.—WARWICK, IVIRCIf 23. The Judges arrived in this town this morning, having dis posed of the business at Coventry in good time yesterday. The calendar for this place is heavy, considering upwards of one hundred and fifty prisoners have been tried in the course of the last week, at an adjourned Sessions. The cause list is also expected to be heavy. Their Lordships proceeded to try prisoners in both Courts shortly after their arrival. Thomas Mllon, aged twenty-eight, was charged with having assaulted and robbed James Farney on the King's highway. Gulty. Sentenced to one year's imprisonment and hard labour. Mislopher Owen was charged with having embezzled various sums of money which he had received on account of Joseph Fulford, his master. The prisoner was acquitted. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—LANOJSTRR, llLuton 22 The Judges arrived here from York late yesterday even ing, and opened the commission. To-day at twelve o'clock they sat for the despatch of business. Twenty-six causes, are entered for trial. The calendar is, upon the whole, light. There are nineteen prisoners, one charged with manslaugh ter, two with arson, and one with an attempt to murder his wife by..poison. The other charges are not of a very serious nature. Oh the Civil side, Ur. Justice Pattison was engaged dur ing the day in trying several causes of no possible interest. Two of them were actions of mesne process against John Postlethwaite and Woodburn PoAtlethwaite, who at the last Summer Assizes were defendants in an action of eject ment, brought by the heir-at-law of an old man of the name of Jewell, at Ulverstone, in which the will made in their favou r was set aside on account of the testator's imbecility. In each case there was a verdict for the plaintiff for the amount of rent received by the defendant since the death of the testator, in 1833. Christopher Varley was indicted for burglariously break ing and entering the dwelling-house of Lawrence Wilson, at Cliviger. The Jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty. Michael Riley was indicted for the manslaughter of Geo. Desantes, at Preston, on the 7th of November last. Verdict—Guilty. Sentence was deferred. . , WESTERN CIRCUIT—ErErEn, MARCH 19. ANSDELL V. COMFERTZ. This case occupied the Court the last three days, and, from the sum in dispute, as well as from the nature of the case, it has excited great interest. The sum dependant on the result of the trial is 58,000/. It was an issue directed from the Court of Chancery, to try whether Henry Gul ling Isaac was the legitimate son of his parents, Joseph and Leah Isaac. The real question was, whether he was born before Henry or idler marriage. In 1773, by the will of Isaac, the property was left to the testator's son for his life, r ema i n d er to t h e e ld est ma l e heir of his grand s on ; an d in def au l t o f such i ssue, to hi s co usin Gompertz, throug,h whom th e d e f en d ant c l a i me d. The plaintiff's grandson was the ab ove - name d Joseph Isaac, who married Lcah O a t en , and by her had four children, two sons and two dau;,h ters. Time first son was u nquestionably born before mar riage ; the second was the subject of the issue. If he were.born after the marriage, the plaintiff's were his next of kin, and entitled to the property. If before marriage, there was no male heir, and it passed to the defendant un der the will. The Jury found a verdict for the defendant. Mr. Erie, Mr. Crowder, and Mr. Butt, were for time Plaintiff ; Mr. Sergeant &was- and Mr, Barstow for the I defendant. d tt. d 6 7 (5 7 7 $4 7 0 11 0 Mr. MatioN—Did you board him as well as lodge him in part payment of the teaching? Harrigan—Divil a bit of feed did I give 'm ; but as for the bed, it was as soft as the Lord Livtinant's of ould Ireland, God bless him. Sometimes he divided it wid another man or two, but very often he'd all, and nobody at all went to bed wid 'im but himself, the ould rogue—bad luck to a chating frisher.— (Roars of laughter attended this colloquy.) The case being proved, the jury pronounced a verdict of Guilty, and the Court sentenced the " ould Irish school master" to two months' imprisonment, and " exercises" at hard work. MIDDLESEX COUNTY COURT, KINGSGATE-STREET. WARRINGTON V. COOK. 44 WIIEIST LOVELY N/VOSIAN STOOPS TO FoLLY."--7. From the statement of the plaintiff, who appeared to he deeply impressed with a feeling of shame at the disclosures 'she was compelled to make, it appeared that the father of the child she supported in her arms allowed the sum of ten shillings weekly towards its support, and this amount has been from time to time transmitted to Mrs. Warrington by the father, through the agency of the defendant, Mrs. Cook. The money had, however, been kept back upon one pre text and another; and a number of weeks having fallen due, the plaintiff found herself compelled to seek redress in that Court. Mr. DUBOIS—What do you say to this, Mrs. Cook ? Mrs. Cook—Oh, Sir, don't ask me ! My modesty has been outraged and my decency violated by that COMMI3SIOSER—SoftIy, my good woman—better wordS, if you please. Mrs. Cook—Better words, indeed! she's no better nor she ought to be. I'm a married Looman, and got my marriage lines and a man witness to trove it.—(Laughter.) COMMISSIONER—SO much the more fortunate for you. But why havu't you paid this poor girl her money? Mrs. Cook—Oh, the good for nothing—she's had it. Mrs. Warrington—You unfeeling woman, how can you say so ? - Mrs. Cook—l've got a letter to prove it. • COMMISSIONER—Hand it up, Mrs. Cook. Let us see 4t. Here Mrs. Cook fumbled about her huge pocket a con siderable time, and at length supposed she must have for gotten it. - The Jury, after very severely animadverting upon the heartless conduct of the defendant towards the plaintiff, who was already suffering all the ignominy that she could possibly bear up against, ordered Mrs. Cook to pay the tooney immediately. A RUSSIAN FAIR.—The Emperor of Russia has made several new regulations, conferring additional privileges on the fair of Nijny Novogorod. Nijny Novogorod is the Russian town par excellence. It is there only where the true Russian blood is met with. Moscow is the city of the nobles of the old school ; St. Petersburgh the seat of Russian civi lization ; Archangel is the depot for the riches of the north ; Odessa forms a link in the chain of eastern commerce ; Riga is the port of the Baltic—the monument of faith; Kazan and Astrachan are the towns conquered by the Tartars ; but the city of Nijny Novogorod is the moat Russian and important of all. It is at the same time the ancient cradle of the Russians, and the modern depot of their commercial wealth. The Volga and the Oka unite • their waters near it; all the .great roads centre in it; all that the east has of the most rich, or.the west of the most elegant, is to be found there. In one word, Nijny NovogOrod is the'entrepot of Europe and Asia, since the mo l',.tnent that the Emperor transferred to it the fair of Makariew. In 1836, the fair produced 118,000,000 of paper-money rubles. Through it are passed into Russia the shawls of Cashmere, the pearls, the drugs, the tea, the stuffs, of the• East, the porcelain and the horses of pure blood ; and from thence are passed into .Asia cloth, glass, and hardware.— Journal de Frankfiirt: A young man, named Hussey, was found dead on the shore at Bridport ; he had fallen a victim to the drinkieg of raw spirits.—Devizes Gazette. A singular circumstance has lately occupied the at tention of the good people of the town of Voreppe (Isere). A medical man was proceeding on horseback about dusk to wards Grenoble, when a young mati; who had concealed him self in a hedge by the road side, sprang towards him, and de manded his money or his life. The disciple of Esculapias replied by discharging a pistol at the robber, put spurs to his horse, and gallopped off. The next morning the identical young man called on the doctor to have his wound dressed. The doctor generously attended to it, and contented himself With pointing out to his patient the dangerous course he was pursuing, and recommending his return to the paths of virtue and honesty.—French Paper. _ _ • . The St. Petersburgh Commercial Journal pub lishes the following imperial ukase :—" After examining the report of the Committee expressly appointed by us, we order 1. To promote the export trade, corn of all descriptions ex ported over the land frontiers to Prussia shall be exempt from all export duties., 2. Instead of the duties en foreign salt im ported through the custom-houses of Tauroggen, Ceorgenburg, and Polangen, amounting to 24 copecs in silver per Prod, and 12. k per cent. addition—with the quarantine money there shall be levied, till further orders, a duty on foreign salt imported by the above custom-houses of 32 copecs in silver without the addition, and the quarantine money." When a man dies, they htlieve that the devil stands in ambush before the house, in order to get peFsess!on of the corpse on its way to its last abode. As the rabbis, however, surround it all the way to interment, his Infernal Majesty is, cowed by their presence ; but still he follows the procession, in hopes of finding some favourable opportunity, or of slippin,g into the grave along with the defunct. When the body, thereH fore, is near the opened grave, the bearers suddenly retreat with it to a certain distance, and a rabbi attending thorn throws some gold pieces as far as he can in different directions. The devil, who is by this time either in the grave or near it, is tempted by' his avarice to go and pick up the money ; and whilst he is thus employed, the corpse is huri led back ,o the tomb, and earth thrown over it. Oue day that I tallad about this custom to a Moor, who has a bigoted hatred of the poor Israelites, I asked him if it was nbt unlike a Jew to throw away his money ? Ah, yes,' he said ; but it is very. like a Jew to cheat the In the burials of females, this ,scattering of money is never practised : Satan, it is alleged, has already too much trouble upon his hands to wish getting hold of a woman.— Campbell's Le/ters front the South. _ _ During the very foggy weather which occurred be tween the 7th and 10th of February last the lighthouse at the Mull of Galloway was surrounded by small birds, in such amazing numbers that the light-keepers were .employed for many hours in beating them off, so as to free the light, a:id when the dense mist cleared away they picked up more than six hundred which had been killed. What is very re markable, during the same period similar birds appeared in flocks of still greater numbers at the lighthouses on the island - of Pladda, situate about sixty miles north of the Mull of Gallo way. At Pladda there are two distinct lights, on upper and lower stations. Both were beset by innumerable birds, which Were, as at the Mull light, switched off by the 14, , ht-keeper. No fewer than 1,129 birds were picked up; which had thus been killed during the fog. The birds were chiefly laths, with some thrushes, blackbirds, starlings, fieldfares, and red wings. The prevailing winds on the coast bad for about eight days been from the south ; and the gales were occasionally so violent that stones from the beach were driven against the lizhthouse windows. We should suggest to the lightkeepers that when birds occur that are unknown to them, or appear remarkable for the colour of their plumage, or shape of their ! bill, or feet, they should send the birds, or its skid (having head and feet attached), to head-quarters at Edinburgh. It sometimes happens that rare foreign birds which have lest their way are attracted by the beacon lights on the (.109t , — , EdtOuryli Paper, _ . The roar of the roused bear was soon heard, and by the time the men had reached the middle of the field,- his course could be traced by the crashing of the broken stems, which ,yielded like . grass to the powerful brute, " He's away," shouted Rivers, as the black monster broke. from the cover, and g allopped at his awkward pace towards the hills ; " hurry for first bloßd !" and giving Clasher his head, off he dashed in hot pursuit, with Time at his heels. The bear turned round for an instant on hearing the clatter of hoofs; then, sending back a roar of defiance, re sumed his flight. On nearing - him both took a pull at their horses' heads to have them well in hand before the encoun ter. They_ were now at his haunches ; he half turned to meet them. At that instant in went the spears, and as they passed at full speed each buried his spear blade deep. The enraged brute made frantic efforts to overtake them, gnash ing- his foaming teeth with impotent fury, and roarinc , so fiercely that even the well-tried Arabs showed some reelue tanee to face him again. They were at length wheeled round, and again coming up nearly abreast, both spears were delivered and withdrawn with fatal precision ; the horses, obedient to the lea and rein, turning off beautifully at the critical moment. ' The bear now bleeding profusely, still continaed to retreat, occasionally standing at bay and charging desperately. He had antagonists to deal with, however, who were perfect masters of their weapons, and mounted on horses which turned much too rapidly to be overtaken by his clumsy. efforts. Spear after spear transfixed him 'whenever a favourablA opportunity occurred, till at last the exhausted brute, his s sides dripping with blood, and his tongue hanging (rem his parched jaws, lay down among some thick bushes, unable to run further. It was then that Rivers, exclainii4; " that. he was done" spurred up his horse to give the coup de grace. Too much excited to be cautious, he did not listen to BlOwhard's warning voice, who earnestly called to him,. " Don't spear him in cover, or he will have you to a ,cer tainty ; I tell, you he is not done. For God's sake"—Bc fore he could finish the sentence his prediction was verified. Clasher went boldly up and leapt into the centre of - the bushes, but he - eould not turn off as in the plain when the spear was delivered. The bear, exerting the last remnants of his strength, reared to his full height as the blow wi:s' given, and seizing Rivers by the thigh dragged him from the saddle. The noble Arab, snorting with fear, plunged wildly forward,. leaviro his helpless rider, and galloping madly from the spot, at once announced what had hap pened, already confirmed by the horrid yell of the bear at the moment of seizing his victim. " I knew how it would, be,". muttered Blowhard between his clenched teeth, as ga r s dismounted and drew the long hunting knife, which het always carried. Leaving his horse he sprang to his friend's: assistance,_ who lay half stifled under the bear, which still retained his hold. Without a moment's hesitation he threw himself upon the brute and plunged the knife to the hilt behind the shoulder, repeating his blows till the monster's jaws relaxed in the convulsions of death. Rivers, on being dragged from tinder the lifeless carcass, leapt up and warmly thanked his friend for his deliverance, Although covered with blood, it was not his own ; the bear was so completely blown, that his gripe had not penetrated. the leather breeches in which the hog-hunter always rode, and a trifling bruise was the only result of an accident whicli, promised 'to be serious. " You have got well out of it this time," said Blowhard, coolly wiping his reeking b'ade ou the shaggy hide of the prostrate bear ; " but he would have had your scalp before 1 could have saved you, iflae had not been near the 'death throes." DECCAN. Note.—The Indian be. r, Ursus Laniatus, is a variety whose habits are little known by naturalists. It is found ill most mountainous parts of India, and in some places bears are so numerous, that I have known fifteen found in one day. I have myself seen seven within six hours. Al though not carnivorous, it frequently attacks and kids men from mere wantoni.ess, generally seizing his victim by the head and tearing away the scalp. Of this I have known several instances. JUVENILE PROSTITUTION. (from a. Correspondent of a Morning Papi.ir.) About a fertnlght• since a little girl, aged 14, rtnrael - Maria Egan, suddenlyAisappcared from her mother's house, in Waterloo. court, Cannoc-street-road, St. George 's, from the suspicious circumstances of the case appriensians: were entertained that she had been decoyed to one of the numerous brothels in the neighbourhood. A very minute. search was instituted by her friends without avail, unti'. within the last few days, when it was discovered that she had been detained at ai house in Wentworth -street, White chapel, a brothel kept by a relative of the notorious Sheen,. who some years since cut his child's head off. The little girl is of an interesting description. She VW» found by her uncle,'who had been endeavouring to 'trace-, her, as she was about to make her escape from the housm in Wentworth -street, the cuter door of which she had just reached. He immediately secured her, and searched, the rooms, in which there were 12 or 14 girls, kept there for the purposes of prostitution. Most of them-were very youri_!• Oa Wancsd t.e girl E .; rn, with her friends, applied to the London Society for the Pre% ention of Juve ode Prostitution for advice and protection, when she gave the following statement : She said, that , as she was walking along the Commer cial-road about a fortnight since, she met a girl . eighteen years old, with whom slfe got into_ conversation, and was induced, at her persuasion, to accompany her for a walk. They walked together sonie distance, and at length passed up Brick-lane, and turned into Wentworth-street. They entered the house No. 77, and she was then immediately taken hold of by another girl, an inmate of the house, and forced into . a room, which was instantly locked. The girl who had decoyed her stopped and spoke to the woman,.who was the keeper of the house, from whom she believes she received money. She had not been long in this room before a man came in, and locked the door after him. She thou thought, for the first time,-th.it she had been brought here for some base purpose, and she began to scream violently, but the roma was too fin removed fur her cries to lie heard (being at the back - pin of the premises), -and the monster in human shape, after cruelly ill-using her, effected his design. Ha was a man about five feet six inches high, middle-aged, parently well-dressed, and appeared to be respectable. H o gave her no money, but, having accomplished his pt , xpose , left her locked up in the room, vvhere she was aft.erwards kept. She was compelled to remain in this plane, submit ng to the most disgusting and brutal treattrunit, until she ; was rescued by her uncle. Her mother is a poor woman, whose hush►,nd died se, me time since, leaving her with four children, three of vitioin arc dead, and the fourth is the object of the bor . :id tale thus described.
