The Lassle Bear.
when Bosvell went to Scotland with Dr.. John
,n. he introduced the great hog to his father, telling
Nm that the Doctor was quite literary consiella-
con. The old mans reply was peculiarly ~oire !:
~Cens,ellstion. Jamie, constellation then it must
% Ursa Major"
New, althosgh we are not aware CT any Ursa Ma
jsr that the literary hemisphere of New York con-
ains, YET we certalaly blessed cursed, a. the
ease may be, with most brilliant Ursa Major Lit
1e Bear shining with the vividness of of the
sixth magnitude, and fixing and cracking amongst
ne other consultations with oil the ferceness OF
small comet with split TAIL or rather with no tail al
ILL
But this should not be taken q matter of dlsPar-
sgonent TO friend Ursa Miner, which being inter-
Dreted, means de (little) Bear; because an eminent
sage says, that il the nature Of every thing great
beth in the animate AMI inanmate world, to be wild
and irregular. And wild and irregular enough our
itile hero. de Bear 10.
Where this little Bear was born, or where brought
- up, /" We believe nobody knows-atleast we DON'T
md what is msre-Much more german TO the pur
pese--we don't care Some say he is Russian
some say he . PrsssIan- some say he is Cossack,
and killed like Bob Acres)a man day since he was
Bur feet high and, by the by, he is much higher
now-oihsrs say he rs Hungarian, and killed nine
seen Frenchmen at Waterloo. We would soon
believe that he swallowed tho nineteen Frenchmen
~ that he killed them for he looks like Of Pha-
Joah's lean kine who could swa low halt creation
without feeling any the fai,er for the operation.
Now 90 much fer our little Bear; bu, what relation
shis bear bears % one De Behr or whether The one
bear bears the least relation to she other Behr we
cannot addacs any thing to bear out what nigh, be
considered q bare conclusion.
But pour revenir nos moxt0ns: SignUr De
BehT, sr Monsieur De BehT OF Monseigneur De Brhr.
- Mynheer De Bshr, or Mons. Sgnor Mynheer Kari
Van Behr, - the case may BE-, for he may be
"An things BY tur,s, AID ~.sliss long"
vent out day 70 scent the with the Prince dc
Jsinvlls. Then and there, as we are credibly in.
Informed, he had = row and fight with youns
.Erenchman, who knocked him down. This we pub
Ashed and he called complain oft, assuring US thu
De didn't fight NJ al, because he took q candle and
3ssksd nj oil his antagonists and found the wore
losfer written on their foreheads. However rs we
believed sur informant we stuck TO our text and we
said and We believed that dis do Behr was knocked
down.
In Consequence of this de little bear-we beg par
Aen-tlle do Behr took az to task in the following
classic effsson through the columns Of his paper.
