ATTACK BY BEAR.-On Thursday,
The 24th instant, a young man named
Heating, belonging to the township Of
Fitzroy, was attacked by large she-bear
ana muiilated in such dreadful manner
by the ferocious beast that ii is reported
he has since died Of his wounds. Ii ap-
pears that the young man met with the
bear in the woods, accompanied by her
cubs but we have not learned whether
he inierfered with the animal in any way
or not. When chased by the savage
beast he climbed tree, into which the
bear followed him, and inflicted danger
Gus wounds on the foot, thigh, and abdo-
men which latter was severely torn. Al
length, from loss of blood, he became
FAINT and leii from the tree TO the ground
when the bear also jumped down and
walked away with her cubs without re-
hewiDg the attack. Although it is no,
very common for the bear TO attack man.
Yet We have known several instances OF
iheir having done so, before and after be-
ing fred at; when the parties, on such
occasions. narrowly escaped with their
lives 0ftara lIanado) .aarocate.
