Where's Sam Hide
Many years ago settler in the Macon
started one day on hunting excursion. and
after travelling about half the day, killed a
noble bear. He then threw the bear and gun
over his shoulder and started homeward. AT
ter walking about four miles he became very
much fatgued, and concluded to stop and take
an hours rest. He dropped Bruin on the
ground, laid his gun by the side OF the bear
and retired TO log some fifteen or twenty
steps off, and laid him down to sleep. After
sleeping about half an hour he awoke, and
was startled at finding ferocious panther be-
tween him and his game What was he to
do' He could not get at his gun for the pan,
Their. But in the very energy and frenzy OF
despair, he started to his feet and met the beast
in his spring The hunter ran his arm down
the throat Of the panther, through and through
him-caueht him by the tail-gave 1t heavy
Jerk, and turned the beast wrong side out! II
any of our contemporaries doubt this story, lei
them tell us so. We've got the papers!

so sincere-so candid-be sure to avoid her,
and keep your own counsel Tor the only rea-
son she has for prying into your secrets-for
nsinuating herself into your confidence, is to
learn some error, or deformity existing in your

ANOTHER FIRE AT RIcHMoND.-We regret that
we have again to announce the occurrence OF
another fire in our city, kinded by the hand OF a
daring incendfary, and the effects of which have
fallen with much severity upon an industrious and
worthy citizen. On Thursday night, between
and , o'clock, the alarm was given, and the car
penters shop of Mr. William Pollard, on Cary
Street, between Cd and Sd, was found to be in
flames; so effectively had the ncendiary per
formed his work. that, although the tiremen with
their apparatus. were quickly upon the spot, the
building was burnt to the ground. Mr.. Pollard
had quantity of finished work in the shop, with
pretty extensive supply oflumber, all OF which
was consumed, with his tools, &c. The loss is
estimated at about $1,000, and there being no in
surance, it falls with much severity upon Mr..
Pollard, who has an interesting family, depend
ent upon his personal eXertions for support
On the same might the dry goods store OF Mr..
John w. Boyd, on Broad Street, took fire from
defect in the chimney. but the flames were arrest
ed by timely discovery.
We understand that several other buildings
have been set on ire within the last ten days, but
fortunately, the flames were arrested before hav-
ing made much progress. Indeed, Richmond, at
this time, seems 10 be infested by band of nesa-
rious incendiaries, and our citizens cannot be too
vigiant in their efforts to ferret them out and put
q stop to their abominable proceedings.
