FIGHT WITH A GRIzzLY.-The Cal
averas Chronicie says that ayouag nam,
had a severe fight with a grizzly bear
in the neighborheod Of San Andres, last
week. Bruin attacked him and threw
him down, SO that he, could not draw
his pistol, but was able to draw his knife,
which he used pretty freely on old bruin,
and was shortly enabled to gain his feet,
when he pitched IN 80 bravely to his
savage assailant, that the grizzly hauled
off for breathing spell. This was also
an advantage to the young man, which
he SO successfully employed as to be in
better condition to continue the fight.
The arnnistiee lasted but short time
the grizzly vas cautiously coming up to
renew the battle, when the young man,
with knife in hand, although very Sc
vercly wounded, charged on the mon-
ster with whoop and yell, burying his
knife in the animals neck, which being
more than he had reckoned on, and not
at all agreeable, old grizzly turned, tail,
and trotted off, fairly beaten in a stand
up fight Of his own seeking. e.lL na

American ROliteueSsr

| s.sr, American fOn&eneSar ~
It is a common notion, originated by
English people who have visited the
United States, that the people are rough
uucourtaous, and rude. English people
are generally reserved race they
journey and commune with their. own
thoughts, instead Of conversing with
their fellow travellers. In the old csun-
try, hauteur is often assumed from ,sn
idea that it conveys dignity and impcr-
lance. To be brusque and short 9n
your reply, is to be q man.of great lnaFk
and likelihood /; to be sullen and disa-
geeable in your department, IS to con-
gey to vulgar minds sn impression of
exclusiveness. Answer q person in
England civilly, and you are at once
regarded as Of no account. Be snap
pish and imperious, and the hat is touch
ed, and you rise in estimation. These
ideas impressed on the mind Of the Eng
fish traveller, when he arrives on the
other side of the Atlantic, and finds HIM
selfin the United States, on foreign
ground, the national Thermometer falls to
the freezing point: the Enghshman feels
that he;is among Americans, and that
himself and his nation are the better of
the two. This idea may be, well in its
way, but it operates unfavcrably on the
spirit of enquiry, and opens rather
widely the green eyed spirit ofjealousy.
Our traveller starts on his tour /; he is
addressed by some American, gives q
curt retort. Yankee dander is up, and
he learns few home truths season ably
administered. Americans are at once
jotted down as s'impertinent' sbrutes,''
&c., and on this theme chapter ia
written. I affirm that I never once re-
ceived from an American rude reply;
my inquiries, addressed, from the pres
ident to the engine driver, were answer-
