lowing supplementary Legislation to the Fugi.

When the compromisers begin to confess the
failure Of their panacea, how signal and how
ridiculous that failure must be. The Picdyune
says:
The delays, the vexatiop. and the expense in

were forseen by US, when the Fugitive slave bill
was introduced into Congress and as no pro-
vision was made in the bill to indemnify claim.

tons, for we stood alone in our opposition TO
this very bill, there not being in Louisiana an
avowed disunion organ, nor, indeed, one that APP
peared to entertain doubt Of the perfectibility
Of tie compromise
II may still be necessary for Congress TO pass
supplemental act to secure indemnity TO the
owners Of fugitive slaves for the expense in
Cured in their recovery. Snch an act is no
more than just and necessary, to give TO the ex-
cellent provisions of the Fugitive slave law all
that Is indispensable 10 make it every way ac-
ceptable and equitable.

Bear Hunting in Louisiana.

A correspondent Of the New Orleans Courier,
writing from the backwoods, concludes bis let.
ter with the following graphic description Of the
chase and capture Of the brown bear, native
and denizen Of those adggings:"
The brown bear is no stranger in the parish
Of Livingston. The chase is very exciting
Though not easily overtaken by the dogs as he
generally makes for the most impenetrable
thickets, cane brakes and swamps, yet when
brought to bay he makes n regular "knock-
down and drag-out" affair Of II with the dogs.
He is shy and timid animal, and will never fight
until fairly {" driven to the WALL" and then with
his back against tree he will keep at arms
length half a dozen dogs, finging out his
brawny arms with electrical force and rapidity,
striking right and left, here breaking the back
OF one, there tearing out the entrails OF another
and often destroying the whole pack. IL is
when this fight is going on--a tumult Of fierce
growing, yelping and agonizing screams-that
the hunter, often miles behind, makes prodgous
efforts to come up" horse Is out of the
question. He cuts his way with his a butcher
knife" often for miles through dense forest Of
cane, or plunges up TO his middle-through
morass and lagoon. swimming rivers, and leap
ing, from time TO time, with wonderful activity,
the huge trees that some hurricane has stretch' d
along his way. Of all field sports this requires
the greatest expenditure Of wind and muscle,
and he who IL not sure OF his capacity, had better
never undertake 10 be in at the death Of a bear!
One night, when we were sleeping in the cabin
Of worthy settler, between the Tickfaw and
Amte, the sudden squealing Of hog was heard,
and the old man leaping out OF bed, seized bis
rifle and rushed TO the rescue. There he found
n monstrous bear tearing huge mouthfuls from
TIE side Of his favorite grunter. Approaching
within ten PAGES he blazed away, when the in
furiated animal, slightly wounded, turned upon
his assailant Dropping his rife, our friend
made for tree, and just as he bent himself to
spring, the bear, with desperate clutch, seized
him by - the seat Of his breeches. For
tunately they gave way, and his life was saved.
The bear made off With his trophy, and when we
went out with torches to The old mans relief, Il
could not be said that he was more honored
in the breech than in the observance" for he was
literally naked.

CRossIsG THE ATLANTIC Commumpaw, =
The London correspondent Of the 2oston Post,
gives the details of the new route by which II
is confidently predicted that passengers will,
within the next five years, be carried from Bos-
ton to London within seven days. There seems
nothing improbable about it. lie says:
When the railroad is finished from Galway
to Dublin, which will probably be during this
year, line Of steamers must be opened from
Galway to Halifax and Boston. Then a trav-
eller can attend church in Boston on Sunday,
take an evening or midnight train for Halifax,
(after that great Yankee and British down-east
railway" is done,) and on Monday start for Gal
way, arrive in five or six days, and in twelve
hours "a sea passage from Dulln to Hoyhead
of four honrs,) arrive in London, via Dublin,
Holyhead, the Britannia bridge, and Birmingham,
and be in the British metropolis TO attend d.
vine service seven days after he was in Boston.
This Is no fable, but will be realized within FIVE
years provided that the Halifax and Portland
railway is built; and will be within one day of
it, If not built The Liverpool merchants will
fight stoutly against that Galway packet station.
but the mail service Of the two countries de-
maDd aid will have it, And farther, it will oren

CHARLES LAMB gives the following good hit
at moving housekeepers:
"What dislocation Of comfort Is implied in
that word moving! Such heap Of little things,
after you think all is gotnto the cart olddrcdg-
ing boxes, worn-out brushes, gallipots, walls,
things that il is impossible the most necessitous
person can ever want but which the women who
preside on these occasions, will not leave behind,
If it was to save your soul; they'd keep the cart
ten minutes, to stow in dirty pipes and broken
matches, to show their economy. Thenyou can
find nothing you want for many days after you
get into your new lodgings. You must comb
your hair with your fingers, wash your hands
without soap, 60 about in dirty CATERS.

Matrimony made easy.

The editor of the Portland Transcript who
must be bachelor, from the way he talks, makes
the following suggestions relative to the united
state Of matrimony:
GETTING MARRIED.-This very interesting
event in a woman's life must be very trying to
the nerves of some of our delicate young ladies !!
No doubt your buxom widow, who has buried
her third husband, thinks it very trifling affair,
but she has lost the freshness Of her feelings,
and Is not to be spoken of In the same breath
with blooming maiden. As the result of much
philosophical investigation (for, like Washington
Irving, we have "speculated much about matri-
mony," but have never experimented,) we incline
to the opinion that person can experience the
sensation ofgetting married but once However
this may be, we are glad to be able to state to
those who have serious thoughts of committing
matrimony, that it is in our power to give them
a valuable hint as to the best mode of getting
through the ceremony. We have heard Of gett-
ing married by steam, and by telegraph, but we
have now to propose most original plan, which
may be called, marriage made easy. We recent
ly overheard two young ladies' talking on this
subject. One said she was sure she should faint,
but the other said, when she got married, she in
tended 10 take chloroorm! This is decidedly better
than the plan OF the bashful, man, who wanted
to slide into matrimony by degrees. A white
handkerchief applied to the nose, moment
passed in a blissiul dream, and you awake in the
promised land |! Getting married by chloroform
will undoubtedly become very popular with
sentimental young ladies'.

Asrr.RENT OuTRAeE.-The Albany Regis
ter states that it has been impossible for Van
Rensselaer,, a large lnnd-proprietor, TO collect
his rents in that county, within many years, be-
cause Of the difficulty of serving legal papers,
the proper officers being chosen by anti-rent
votes. He had, however, secured the services
Of resolute man in another county, who had
served his processes, and against whom the
vote-themselves-a-farm gentry had seworn VEN
geance, and recently when acting under Sur
rogates commission to lay off widows dover
in the town of Bern, with two other persons, he
was seized by band of twenty or thirty ain
dians'--as the marauders call themselves
armed with rifles and tomahawks, who bound
and blinded him, stripped off his clothes, and
covered him with tar and feather from the top
Of his head TO the sole Of his foot. They then
tarred the inside Of his clothes, and put them
upon him, tarred them outside and covered
them with feathers, and marched him round the
neighborhood for some hours, and sent him
home TO his family at midnight, after repeating
the process two miles from his house.
