Oustalet but the work Of an instant; but a.
prompt as himself, and having besides che ad-
vantage Of position, the furious bruse threw
himself on the man, and threw him dewn with
an irresistible shock. The strength of the bear
had, fortunately, been weakened. His blood
was escaping from many wounds; one Of his
paws was broken; many of his teeth knocked
out; but his last moments were still terrible.
AT the first gripe he laid open and peustrAted
through the hunters right hand. Soon he seized
successfully, first the upper part of his left arm,
then his thighs, one after another, and pierced
and tore them dreadfuIly Such was the condi-
tion of poor Oustalet, when, thanks to Heaveny-
happy chance came to his aid, and bis pres
enee of mind did not desert him in this short but
,frightful struggle The hunters gun, which
the bear had seized with open throat, and on
the iron of which he had grooved traces Of his
oltes, had partly preserved the parts he had
attacked. So, gathering up all his strength,
oustalet managed to kick his rough adversary
on the belly with both his feet The animal,
tne decilyity, slid down by the side and below
his victim In less than a minute after this
exciting scene the bear, having received the
coup-de-g grace, rolled down dead at the feet of
the hunter. The wounded man was conveyed
to the banks Of the Essera.
Happily, no vital organ had been injured:
and, however severe any Of the wounds be had
received might be, none Of them presented any
alarming appearance. Two hours after the
occurrence the poor fellow, stretched on an inn
provised litter, and borne on the arIns Of the
brave Luchonese, as devoted as comrades as they
are intrepid as hunters, was able to be removed
to the town of Venasque. There the most assid-
nous and judicious attentions we're bestowed on
him, while the most cordial welcome was ac-
corded to all the French-the Venasques thus
again proving how how close are the bonds
which unite the inhabitants Of the two frontiers
Oustalet hopes yet to pay his attentions to
the family Of the monster BY whom he was 80

Grief and Widows.

Grief divides itself into several periods in the
case of the widows:
First period-Despair, six weeks. This neriod
is known by black parametta dress, Grape COL
lar and cuffs, and the disappearance of the hair
beneath the widows cap &
Second period Profound grief Dependency,
six weeks. Profound grief is recognized by the
dress, which still continues to be Of parametta
and the dependency which succeeds to despair
is symbohzed by the white Grape collar and cuffs
Third period-Grief softened by the eonsoIa-
tions Of friends, and the hope soon to reioin the
regretted object of her affections in a better
world. These melancholy sentiments last six
months; they are expressed by black silk
dress; the widows cap is still worn
Fourth period-Time heals the wounds of the
heart. Providence tempers the east wind to the
shorn lamb. Violent attacks Of grief only come
on at rare intervals. Sometimes the widow
seems as though she had forgotten her loss; but
all at once q circumstance, apparently indiffer-
ent, recalls it, and she falls back into grief.
Yet she dwells from time to time upon the faults
of the beloved; but it is only to contrast them
with his dazzling virtues This period would
be tiresome enough for the world at large:
therefore, it has been decided to express it SIM
ply by half-mourning.
Fifth period-there is now only softened
melancholy which will last all her life l. e.. six
weeks This touching and graceful sentiment

ferer less feels the loss than the actual deprya-
tions of a husband.
We should be doing the author an injustice if
we omitted to give the beautiful passage with
which he concludes the subject.
As to those who really grieve over thier rela-
tions, they will do well not to annoy the world
by the signs Of real grief; they will do well
| to wear their sorrows within, as they do when
| mourning over friends, those relations made by
the heart. And, if you should meet with any
such, do not address to them conventional con-
solations; for there is q portion of themselves
which they have buried with their dead. Their
| only consolation is the hope that they shall
| never be able to console themselves; that is to
say, never to forget; never to see those die in
4 their heart whom they have already seen die in
| the flesh. Show these afflicted ones that they
have not lost ali, and show them your love is
still left them. But all this is not the fashion

AMERICA AHEAD Sometime after the peace
of 1914, distinguished officer of the English
navy visited the Constitution, then just new at
Boston, for Mediterranean cruise. He went
through the ship accompanied by Capt. B.
of our service.
We'll, what do you think of her - asked
the latter. after the two had gone through the
vessel and reached the quarter deck again
'sShe is fine frigate, if not one of the finest
frigates | ever put my foot on board off, re-
turned the Englishman, 's but as must have
some fault, I'll say that your wheel is one Of
the clumsiest things l ever saw, and is unworthy
of the vessel"
Capt. - laughed, then explained the ap-
pearance of the wheel, saying:
stWhen the Constitution took the Java, the
formers wheel was shot out Of her. The Jayass
wheel was fitted on the Constitution to steer
with, and although we think it as ugly as you
do, We keep it as trophy

ROMANCE OF REAL LIFE.-Mr. c., as
suming the name Jones some, years since pur-
chased small piece of land, and built on it
neat house, on the edge of a common in Wilt
shire. Here he resided, unknowing and almost
unknown by the neighborhood. Various con-
lectures were formed respecting this solitary and
singular stranger; at length clergyman took
some notice of him, and occasionally invited him
to his house; he found him possessed of intelli-
gence and manners, which evidently indicated
his origin to have been in the higher walks Of
life. Returning one day from a visit at the
clergymans he passed the house of farmer, at
the door Of which was the daughter employed at
the washing tub. He looked at the girl a mo-
ment, and thus accosted her
My girl, would you like to be married be
cause if you would, / will marry you
g Lord, sir These are very strange questions
from man l never saw in my life before"
Very likely replied Mr.. Jones, q but, how
ever, | am serious, and will leave you till ten
o'clock to morrow to consider of it; I will then
call on you again, and if can get your fathers
reonsent. we will be married the following day.
He kept his appointment, and, meeting with
the father, thus addressed him:
ssSir, have seen your daughter; I should
like her for a wife, and am come to ask your
consent"
This proposal" answered the old man, is
very extraordinary from stranger. Pray, sir,
u htlo aAo yotA.
.sSir, you have right to ask these questions
My name is Jones; the new house on the edge
Of the common is mine, and, if it be necessary,
can purchase your farm and half the neighbor-
hood" replied Mr.. j.
Another hours conversation brought all par
| ties to one mind, and the friendly clergyman,
afore- mentioned, united the happy pair. Three
OF four years they lived in this retirement and
were blessed with two children. Mr.. j. employ
ed the greater part of his time in improving his
| wifes mind, but never disclosed his own origin.
| At length, upon taking journey of pleasure
with her, while remarking the beauties Of the
country, he noticed and named the different
! gentlemen's seats as they passed; coming to a
| magnificent one-'s This my dear, is BIS
| house, the seat of the Earl of F., and if you
please, we will go in and ask leave to look at it
it is an elegant house, and probably will amuse
you,' said he.
The nobleman who possessed this mansion had
| lately died. He once had a nephew, who, in the
| gayeties of his youth, had incurred some debts,
| on account of which he had retired from fash
ionable life on about e2o0 per annum, and had
not been heard of for some years. This nephew
| was the identical Mr.. Jones. the hero of our
story, who took possession of the house, title
aud estate, and is the present Earl Of q. Eng
