Grizzly Bear.
Ruxions' adventures IN the Rocky Mountains. I"
/ Some years ago a trapping party was on
their way TO the mountains, led, believe,
by old Sublette, wcll-known Captain of
the West. Among the band was one John
Glass, trapper who had been all his life
in the mountains, and had seen, probably,
more exciting adventures, and had more
wonderful and hairbreadtb escapes, than
any of the rough and hardy fellows who
make the West their home, and whose lives
are spent in a succession of perils and pri-
vations. On one Of the streams running
from the " Black Hills" range d noun
tains northward of the Platte, Glass aud
companion were one day setting their traps,
when, on passing through cherry thIcket
which skirted the stream, the former, who
was in advance, deserted a large grizzly

From the Brattleboro Semi-Wcellly Eagle.

To THE EDrroRs.-Our village for some months
has evidently been infested by gang of midnight
scoundrels, who from time to time have committed
various del radatons and petty hefts upon property
about the premises of our citizens, and becoming
bold by IMMUNITY and the quietmanner in which we
have suffered these annoyances to pass by, they
have at length broken open, in the night time, and
set fire to the store of one of neghbors. Yet
have adopted means to bring the perpetrator, OF
perpetrators of these outrages TO justices and, with
the exception of II bare mention Of the facts by the
newspapers, no notice whatever has been taken of
them.
AS one of the old inhabitants of the village,
would recommends our Thief Detecting Society,
or Selectmen, do not fit to adopt some means to
puts stop to these midnight depredatons and crimes,
either by offering suitable rewards, Or in some other
way-l would recommend my neighbors to protect
themselves and their property, as intend to do, by
placing in the hands of the man who lodges in my
store one of Colts revolving Pistols with directions
to give warm reception to the first villain who
visits my premises in the night for the purpose OF
doing mischief. an old hahaJttm4.

FEMALE WETERs.-Thcre never was a period

umphs Of mind of the nineteenth century, and speaks
volumes (ayc, literally so for the social wisdom of
the age that looks with solictude to the education of
woman as equally important with that of man.
Some Of the best works Of our time intended to eX-
crt good influence upon social character, have EN-

port of the periodical literature of our country is
derived from female minds, Education is develop
