Mountain Fires and Wild Game.

The rccen, mountain fresi in Vermont,
and in New York in the vicinity Of Luke
Champlaiu, have driven the wild beasts
and game from their :" local habitations"
and forced them 10 seek new retreats
nearer tho inhabited portions of the
country. On the west side Of Lake
Champlain the fires have swept from
short distance above Whitehall up along
the lake shu,e for distance Of forty
miles. Much Of this burnt district is
wild region abounding in game and
wild animals, which have been driven
into other quarters by tho devouriug
iiamus
A few days since nine bears, which
had been thus driven from the mountains
on the west shore Of Lake Champlain,
crossed the South bay about two miles
above Whitehall. Some boys and
woman, who had been picking berries
in the vicinity, pushed of n boat and
rowed up to large she bear which was
swimming in the lake with her cubs,
when ono Of the patty struck the bear
with an oar. Thus molcstcd, the bear
turned upon tho attacking party, and
cIapped her torepaws upon the side of
the boat, she exhibited handsome row
of ivory, and made au effort TO get in.

The former had narrow escape from
being upset in their boat and having a

the latter were probably satisfied with
being permitted to escape in safety.

The BROKEN PLEDGE.

A gentlemen in Virginia, says Mr..
Cough, had a boy six or seven years old
who wanted to sign the pledge oftotal ab-
stinencs from intoxicating drinks; all in
the family had done SO, but the father
thought him too young and would not let
him. After much entreaty, permission
was given. Soon after the father went on
a journey. AT one stopping-place away
from the town, he called for some water.
1t did not come, so he called again; still
he could not get it; but cider was brought
and being very thirsty he so far forgot
himselfas to drink that. When he got
home, he related the circumstance. AZ
ter he had finished, the little boy came up
to his knee with his eyes full Of tears, and
said, "Father how far was you from James
river when you drank the cider!' "Rath-
er more than fifteen miles my boy
WELL" said the little fellow, "1'd have
walked there aud back again rather than
have broken my pledge" Oh, Goddess
the children. We have thousands such
as these-childref who understand the
principle and keep the practice. ! some
times wish the adults kept the pledge as
well as boys do. s

Odd Fellows.

The Grand Lodge l, 0. 0 F. Of Missis-
sippi closed its annual Session at Vicks-
burg on the 10Th instant. The represen-
,ation from Subordinates was full, and the
attendance ofP. Gs. was unusually large.
The entire Session was characterized by
the greatest harmony, and the utmost uni
ty prevailed throughout the delibera-
tions. ...,
The official reports show the Order to
be rapidly on the increase in this State
Five new Lodges have. been organized
since the last session, and several dispen-
sations granted for others shortly to be in
stituted. The reports from the Lodges
established in the cities and towns border
ing on the rivers show severe numerical
loss sustained through the ravages Of the
yellow fever last fall; but the gratifying
fact is also shown that their loss has since
been more than supplied by INITIATES,
whose utilization has been prompted chief
ly by the noble benerolence and generous
attention to the sick and suffering NANTES
ted by til. Brotherhood Of those Lodges
in their midst. As an instance, Warren
Lodge of Vicksburg has during the past
six months initiated over 30 members.
Among the important measures ofgene-
raj interest to the Order acted upon may
be mentioned the passage by unanimity OF
resolutions by the Grand Lodge and Grand
Encampment instructins the representa-
tives to the Grand Lodge Of the United
States to urge, and il impossible secure the
merger Of the Patriarchal branch Of The
Order-Wc Aavaace, (MiSs.)
