Any one passing along our business streets, during
the present remarkably stirring season, Will be sur
prised at the amount of goods destined for the South
ern States, The vast outlay of money consequent
upon these enormous purchases may be estimated BY
the most careless observer Here is not only an ar
gument for the preservation of the Union, but it is
living evidence of the folly of those reckless agita-
tors who to think that the North could get a
long as well as, and even better than she does now,
ifthe South were erected into distinct and hostile
eonfederacys~ the eager merchant, occupied
from early dawn till late at night-perhaps one of
the very who, carried off by the free soil move
ment, INDUCED in the vaunt alluded to-how he
would be able to count his profits, and to 90 to
bed every night. dreaming of untold riches, if he
could not invoke the support of his Southern custom

him, and that if the Southern buyers left
our market, many an old house would be closed, and
many glowing expectation crushed. We do not
refer to this subject deprecate the great trade of
the est ,but point to it to practical illus

A Bear Story.

"A day or two since, Mr.. Solomon Reed of Dor
set, Vermont, was cutting wood at some distance
from his house. very large bear stole up behind
and ordered him to stop He let fly his axe at Bruin
but 1t missed and Bruin in turn let fly at him. Solo
mon then seized club and laid the blows upon his
shaggy adversary so heavily that it broke, and he
began to think he should have to knock under Not
having the wherewithal to knock him with he made
use of his fists, expecting every moment that he
should be compelled to in. dreadful hug fol-
lowed. and the two rolled over on the ground like
couple of wrestlers in ring. Not liking to bear it
in this fashion, Solomon, by desperate effort got
Bruin under him. holding his head down. and sitting
plump astride of the beast. The latter however
soon began to bear up, and all at once took to his
heels like an infnriated bull, Solomon all the while
astride, and compelling the bear to follow his own
nose with as slight deviation of his jaws from a
straight line as possible On they drove at furious
rate-the rider and the ridden-the former endea-
voring to make bride out of the bears ears. and
the bear striving as hard to make bit out of the
mans arm. Solomon began to fear at the rate he
was going, that his steed fast taking him into q
whole nest of bears, and probably soliloquized-
