Dir. Gallahcr, of the iowad-s'reet House, had
picked up here he is always on the look out
for rarltes,) n young bear. Bruin was ntd to a
stake in the yard, and furnished much amusement
to Galaher's nervous patients, until one day when
he broke his bonds, 4 finding the door open, took TO
the street Here he prowied about for better quar-
tcrs Bending his steps to Court street, he had the
curiosity 10 examine arefreshmcnt room which IA.
entered without ceremony. The proprietor was
not aware of the presence Off wholesale customer
until the bear placed himself immediately before
hun, and assumed an attitude and expression
which seemed TO say, Who are you looking
II, "-Thc bar keeper answered with scrcsm,
add making n leap, plunged into nar,uw closet
and closed the door, y,nturIng ONLY to take &C
casional peep, in hopes 10 no more of the bear
To find some more welcome ysiter, who NIGH,
relieve INN from his terrible situation. No one
came to his relief it being too carly for b. regular
customers, and his fright was Tremendous. A,
length, after visit of nearly half an hour during
WHICH time he was occupied in arigd cxamna-
ton of the premises, and doing the temperance
cause some good by upscttlng and breaking sun
dry and divers dccanters & bottles the bear took hi,
leave; and the har-keepcr was restored, to bis post
halfdcad with flight and wond,sns how he could
have lived long coopcd up in n closet scarcely
hall as large rs bathing tub. Whether he has
brought an action of damages against the bear, we
canno! learn from The records of the court.
