AN AMATEUR Nine
bears driven by the fire from their homes
in Washington county, lately undertook to
migrate to Vermont. While swimming
the bay couple Of miles from Whitehall,
a woman and dogs gave chase to an old she
bear that was swimming, with her cubs
They rowed up to the old lady and raped
her head with an oar. She turned and
put her paws on the edge of the boat and
proposed to come aboard to settle the mat
ter. AT the same time the cubs and anoth-
er big bear turned about to see if it was a
Stree fight and ifs they wanted to be
counted in.' The boatmen, finding a
bigger fight than they had bargained for,
proposed compromise, and both parties
made straight wake for the shore in oppo-
site directions. 1t is generally supposed
that thewoman and boys will not soon go
on another bear-hunt on Lake Champlain.

We sometimes catch ourselves wondering
how many of the young ladies whom we
meet with are to perform the part of house.
keepers, when the young men who now
eye them so admiringly have persuaded
them to become their wives.
We listen to these young ladies of whom
we speak, and here them not only acknow-
Lodging, hut boasting of their ignorance of
all housewife duties, as if nothing would so
lower them in the esteem of their friends
as the confession of an ability to bake bread
and pies, or cook piece OF meat, or dis
position to engage IN any useful employ
ment. Speaking from our own youthful
recollections, we are free to say, that taper
fingers and lily white hands are very pret-
ty to look at with a young mans eyes, and
sometimes We have known the artless in
nocenee OF practical knowledge displayed
by young Miss, to appear rather inter
esting than otherwise. But we have lived
long enough to learn that life is full of rug
ged experiences, and that the most loving,
romantic and delicate people must live on
| cooked or otherwise prepared food, and in
homes kept clean and tidy, by industrious
hands. And for all the practical purposes
Unmarried life, it is generally found that
for the husband to sit and gaze at a wife's
taper fingers and lily hands, or a wife to
SIT and be looked at and admired, does not
make the pot boil or put the smallest piece
of food in the pot.
What, then, is to become of married
couples whose contribution to the stock with
which they set up is, on the one side taper
fingers, lily hands and utter ignorance Of
all household economy, and on the other a
caracity ior lelng fascinated with fairy
forms and delicate complexions seen by
moonlight! How are these couples to live,
when 1t comes to the simple QUESTION OF
bread and butter. Or even supposing that
the male partner brings with him industry
and application and substantial earnings,
what is the other partner to do with the
proceeds of his toll. She can't work, cook,
sweep-she can play the piano, the guitar,
and Oh pinch, make jelly or cake. But
any thing so vulgar and commonplace as
cooking substantial meal is out of the
question. Really, it seems to US, with our
old fashioned notions, that before a young
man ventures upon matrimony with one oil
the sort of girls we are talking about, he
should calculate whether his resources will
permit him to marry, besides his wife, a
posse OF cooks, ehambermaids, washer
women, &C., to take care of the establish

their industry to depend upon, had better

Always keep in equal mind
Fling your sorrow to the wind.
