FIGHT WITH A GRIzzLY.-The Cal
averas Chronicle says that ayouag naan
had a severe fight with grizzly bear
in the neighborhood 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 so bravely to his
savage assailan, that the grizzly hauled
aff 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 arlnistiee 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
verely wounded, charged on the mpn-
ster with a 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. ia a

It is a common notion, originated by
English people who have visited the
United States, that the people are rough
uucourteous, 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 in
your reply, is to be a manof great inaFk
and likelihood /; to be sullen and disa-
geeable in your department, IS to cog
vey 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 ofthe 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 spiri. ofjealousy.
Our traveller starts on his tour ; he is
addressed by some American, gives
curt retort. Yankee dander is up, and
he learns few home truths season ably
administered. Americans are at once
jotted down as s'impertinent' s'brutes,'''
&c., and on this theme a chapter is
written. affirm that I never once re-
ceived from an American a rude reply;
my inquiries, addressed, from,the pres
ident to the engine driver, were answer
ed with politeness. In travelling, / re-
marked how attentive my fellow travel
lers were and whenever believed to lie
from the old country, I received add
tional courtesy. My plan was to adj
dress every one with civility ;-civility is
a passport all over the couatry. But
once assume the naughty airs of the old
country, and you get some sharp retort,
conveying some unwelcome truth touch
ing aristocrats. The politeness Of
Americans to ladies is beyond praise,
A lady can travel all over the Union,
and not be insulted. If she is alane,
| it is taken for granted that she is ,oblig-
ed to travel without protector; shs
maybe going to join her friends in =
distant State 7 or business. may require
her presence they know not and ask
not why she chances to be alone. It
marks very strongly and favorably the
manliness and chivalry Of a people, - chs
treatment of the weaker sex with corr
tesy and politeness.-C0l. Sleigh. -

The Ca. !, ornia Snake Bird.-ALEx-
AMBER S. T4rtoR, of Monterey, in his
" Familiar Sketches of the Natural His
tory of. California" says that in the
coast countries of Southern California,
there exists singular species of bird,
generally called, on account Of his well
known mortal aversion to all members
of the snake tribe, the !" snake Bird"
It is not a bird Of prey, but lives en-
tirely on grain, like the gallinacia.-
When full grown it measures two feet
from the tip Of its tail to the tip Of its
beak. The tail has four or five long
feathers tipped with white. Its feet
are furnished with four toes, two in
front and two behind, and all are guard
ed with sharp needle-like claws. The
color of the bird is a motsled, yellcwish
gray, and it rarely attains the weight
Of a pound. Its beak is two and half
inches long, and hard and sharp
When the bird fRds rattlesnake-and
rattlesnakes are to be found in great
numbers in Southern California, where
ever the ground is covered by the cac-
tus plant-it Immediately proceeds,
with the greatest caution and despatch,
to gather the fallen cactus fruit and dry
lobes, and quietly corral him to the
height Of a foot or more-the spikes
and spines Of the plant, strong and sharp
as needles, serving as an insurinounta-
BILE barrier to the escape Of the snake
This being accomplished the bird gath
ers with his feet and, claws the young
cones Of the pine, which are as hard
and heavy as stones, and lowering over
its enemy, lets them fall, one by one,
from height Of Eve or six feet, upon
the infuriated viper, who, surrounded
by prickles and points whatever he
turns, is soon fully aroused to the dang
er Of bis position. The bird, with mali.
cious screams, continues to drop cone
after Gene, until his foe is exhausted,
and then, demolishing the corral, picks
the snake to death with his iron beak.
