The deer, bear, lynx and fox are vet
plenty in the forests ofnorthern New
Hampshire, and the catamount and
wOlt are occasionally met with in the
mountain recesses. There are two
other animals, however, which we
shall give a brief description Of, thew
being at present unknown, save in the
regions of the North
And first the Cariboo, or American
kelndeer, (CerUus 1arqndus. J Natur.
alists have sighted this magnificent
animal, and he has very brief notice
in all works on the animals Of Ameri.
ca. lie originally inhabited a vast
extent Of country from Newfoundland
to the great lakes, as far South as the
middle of New York, and North to
the Artic Circle. There are several
species, differing from each other on
account Of locality, climate, etc. We
shall speak of him as found in the Can
adss ana q - oppe Part oI tae
Granite State.
The Cariboo is somewhat laroer
than the Lapland deer, having an aver. |
age height offourteen hands, and when
IN good flesh weighs about seven hun |
dred pounds. Color dark brown. hair
shaggy, and on their shoulders long
Iimbs finely formed and very muscu.
lar; hoofs wide cleft and spreading
far apart when the creature runs
enables him to travel on the frozen
snow faster than any of the deer tribe. |
Indeed, his fleetness has passed into |
a proverb, and the Indians and old !
hunters say Swift as a Cariboo. |
His antIers are very long, frequently /
over twofeet, and sometimes six inches
In girth at the base. They generally /
curve inwards, giving him a fierce h
untamable aspect, indicative of his dis \
position. He is cautious, too, as the /
chamois, and when encountered sud.
denly, or only wounded, flies with /
fury on the aggressor. Hunting the II
Car!boo requires skill, patience and H
no little courage, as the hunter often
runs great risk. He must take adyan-
tage of every circumstance-of the
wind, of trees, hills, and hollows, and
IS often hours approa ching a herd. IfII,
alarmed, they flee like a whirlwind.
md no one dreams of pursuing. It is
asserted that the Cariboo will travel a /
hundred and fifty miles in day, when
ne snow is firm and smooth. His
iesh is excellent, and his skin makes
inc, strong leather.
The Moose, (CerUas Alcss. J is a
nore common animal, abonnding
round the head waters of Connecticut / I
iver and throughout the British pos t
eesiOns. He is the largest of the
eer species, perfectly gigantic, and a
eminds us of the mastadon, and the Q
olossal animals Of olden time. He I

Fearful warming TO Hard 1xlssers.

John Mcdonnell, young white man, with pre-
possessing countenance, was brought up for stealing
a lady's bonnet from millinery store in Second
street. It is not common event in the course OF
human affairs for young man to steal bonnet =
indeed. the case was singular enough to excite gen.
eral curiosity the mayor himself seemed anxious
to know why Johns Puppets should have fallen on
bonnet rather than hat-for the head-piece be
was entitled to repose after long and faithful
service.
Why did you steal bonnet, John McDonnell!'
All, your honor, its VERY delicate subject, and
I'd rather say nothing about it, if all the same to
your honor and the other gentlemen"

that led to the whole calamity. The old scratch
instgated me to kiss her among the blackberry
bushes, and she fit against the civility till her straw
bonnet was used up like crushed egg she'll"
There says she, you've ruined mel"
"Hows that p says l..

me- and soiled my best bonnet besides, and if that's

'Never mind" says |, there's not much harm

sect her another bonnet There was no shying
off, the bonnet had to come by hook by crook and
SO hooked it. If must go the voyage let me
speak word of advice to the young men which is
standing in solemn silence around this enclosure.
Take warning by my melancholy fate, and kiss the
gals moderate: don't smash their bonnets And
now, gents, I'm ready to suffer. | hope the gent
who is taking down the proceedings will testify that
bore it with manly fortitude. It's crushing affair,
and have sneaking notion that my heart is crush

The milliner lady from whom the bonnet was
stolen was deeply affected, and considering the
theft was committed under the influence of " al
mighty love- she declined to prosecute, and, at her
earnest request, the errng lover set at liberty
