Coop SHoT.--A bear, for some time past
carrying on an improper intimacy with the
Young hogs belonging to The settlers in
the Queens Bush, closed his career last
week ia rather d singular manner. From
q litter of niue in nh industrious mans
hog stye, the bear had at divers times nb-
ssracted four, aud one night on repeating
bis visit, the hogs screamed so inriously at
the abstraction Of one Of their brethren,
that the settler became alarmed, and load
ing his gun in all trepidation, hastened out
to the stye, and seeing the grizzly monster
a few PAGES from him, with the porker in
his tusks, he let fly with the musket, and
the recoil was SO violent that it threw him
several feet backward, with his head under
the fence Believing that the blow had
been dealt by the bear and that the mon-
ster was upon him he roared out hideously,
and was Of course Immediately joined by
his vile who disabused him Of the idea that
anything else but herself was pear him.
He then got up, and found his monster an
tagonis, pierced through the neck 10 the
hog siye by the ramrod OF the gun, having
forgotten ia his hurry to abstract il from
the weapon, and thus the recoil became 90
great as to upset him. The bear died i'm
media,ely and his carcass amply repaid for
the loss OF the pigs, and the fright Of being
turned into grease in the bowels ofa griz-
zly bruin.-Gah (Canada) Reporter.

THREE CHANCES FOR A WIFE.--When Il
man has three chances for wife, it is .
hard mischance if it should fail. The fol
lowing is one of those oases which might
have occurred down east, but we are rath-
cr doubtful if . similar event was ever
known in any other part Of the world
Bat lei US give the experience of the gen
tleman, who al three chances, in his own
language:
81 once courted gal by tho name of
Deb Hawkins. ! made i, up to get mar
ried. Well, while we were going up to the
Deacon's, stepped my foo, into mud
puddle, and spa,,ered the mud all over Deb
Hawkins new gown, made out Of her
grandmother's old chintz petticoat. Well,
when we 60, to the Deacon's. he asked
Deb if she would take me for her lawful
welded husbend, No. says she, Il shan,
do no such thing "What on airth is the
reason?" says |. "Why, says she, "l've
taken mislikiu' 10 you" Well, il was
all up with me then; but ! gave her n
string of beads, few kisses, and some 9th
or notions, and made it all up with her; SO
we went up To the Deacon's a second time.
was determined to come up to her this
time. so when the Deacon asked me il
would take her for my lawful welded wife,
says |, "No, ! shant do no such thiug."--
"Why," says Deb? "whst on airth is the
ma,term "Why," says !. 81 have taken q
mislikn' to you now" Well, there it was
up again; bul gave her a new apron and
a few other little trinkets, and we went up
again TO get married. We expected that
We would be tied SO fast that all nature
couldn't separate us, and when we asked
the Deacon if he would marry US, be said,
"No, | shant do no such thing" "Why,
what on arth is the reason?" said we,-
"Why," says he,"I have taken mis'ikin'
to both of you.' Deb burst out crying,
the Deacon burst out scolding, aud burst

DANGER AND DELlyERANCE.-Ihe lee
lures of Dr.. Kane, before the Smithsonian
Institute, contains some passages Of thrill
ling interested and Of wonderful power:
"New Years day, exactly one year ago.
Continued DR.. Kane,) we found ourselves
entering Batlin's Bay. Including our
march up Wellington, we had driited abou,
400 miles. Psemonitory cracks (issures)
had now opened into black rivers, travers-
ing the ice for miles around like ramifying
arteries. Everything pointed to our ex-
pected ice battle.
Ono ofthesa great rivers, nearly as wide
rs the Schuy kill, was astern of US, and
over it few nights conge!aiion had spread
film nearly foot in thickness. That
night use the word artifciaily, for it
was all night with us-of the 18Th, after
repeated alarms, we were stretched out up.
on our buffalo robes with our knapsacks at
hand, when the officers upon deck called
upon us to hasten up. The thermometer
was 40 degs below zero-72 degs. below
lhe freezing point; but the night clear and
starry, enabled us to penetrate the dark
ness to some distance astern. A white
mass, seemingly in the air, was moving
with steady march, directly upon our brig.
This we knew to be the crest ofn gigantic
hammock, its ridge of crumhling ice as
white in tho contrasting darkness as he
foam Of rolling serf. Accompanying j,
was the solemn orchestra of ice voices, the
booming diapason of the compressed foes.
Presently came the mysterious cessation
Of these noises. The clsmor ceased. We
heard each other speak. A moment after
came the well known ronewal-..,he pup
pies, the shrieks, tho locomotives. On
came the crest; and now tumhlng from it.
we could see the heavy blocks Of ice and
hear their hollow coughs upon the snow
padded foes. Nearer yet we could define
its motion, and feel the transmitted undula-
,ion of the six foot ice, which powerful as
ii was, formed no barrier to its advance.
Now to our quivering ship, came a avibra-
tory trembling that made our lips tingle,
as in cotton factory at home. The co.
lossal mass bears down upon us--closer-
six yards--,hree yards--six leet--it ceases !;
its pulse had becten, and the mysterious
interval (of silence and quieD had arrived.
All that night we waited for its renewal
but it. renewal never came. Eight months
afterwards that great ridge stood in the
same position beside US, monument OF
Gods mercy and mans own helplessness. y
