Wonderful Escape from ~ Bull.

In the town Of Bridge water last week,
Brace Hall. little son Of Deacon Hall, OF
that place, was grievouSly goted BY bull
and almost miraciously y escaped with his
life. The bull was q young animal,
whom the lad-only some nine years old
had been in the habit of driving, and it
had never manifested any considerable vi.
ciousness. But boys who had bathing
place in the brook that runs through its
pasture. had worried it by shaking their
clothes at il, and thus getting up the ex-
element of chase. On Monday of last
week. little Brace was passing carelessly
through the field where there were some
forty animals with this bull among them
when it suddenly set upon him and toss
ed him repeatedly upon his horns.
A faithful dog which accompanied tue
boy attacked the bull, aud caught upon
its neck with firm teeth. The believing
and wild running about OF the other cattle
in the field, made up an exciting scene.
For about eight rods the bull tossed him
repeatedly upon his horns.
He had already touched the boards,
when the bull again tossed him, aud his
head struck against the fence, tearing the
0Oolp hOI LlOII' LUZ VIC lOIuS

boards off. and the victim still self, posses
sed. escaped through the opening so op-
portunely made. into an adjacent lune.--
The bull seemed more intensely maiden
ed at this escape, and with almost human
sagacity surned down toward an opening
into the lane some distance of. But the
boy had meantime climbed over another
fence. and was beyond the mad beasts
reach.
Completely exhausted he could do no
more the faithful dog who had vainly
endeavored to restrain the beast. hasten>

tracted his attention. and led him to the
presence of his wounded son he lay
bleeding, naked and yet alive. He was
taken home and cared for, and we under,
stand there is every reason to believe he
will recover from his injuries.
The sell. lf.possession of the boy alone sa-
we'd his life and with the fidelity of the
dog deserves to be recorded. The bull
was fenced in and shot.-Nsw York Hsr-

standing by the gunwale, on which her
son, little boy of some four years old,
was sitting, playing on sugar hsgeolet,
which his fond mother had purchased for
him. in port. of an ingenious Spanish con-
fectioner. The child was greatly delgh-
ted with the toy, and blew vigorously ;
while Mrs. Howard seemed to enjoy the
little fellows delight, as much as he en-
loyed the fageOlet. The transcendent
beauty Of the mother, and the angelic
loveliness of the child riveted every eye
that observed them. and various were
the speculstions advanced as to their
history. After some time a sailor shout
ed. I" a shark Ia shark !" and every ho-
dy crowded to see the huge creature that
was swimming alongside tho vessel. AS
the passengers were remarking upon the
appearance of the shark, Shrek WAS

be opened and the remains of the boy ia

thinking nor do l mean clustering boy
whose words are larger than his deeds.

of such boy lately and what he did
This boys name was Gelse. He lives
at Crosse Isle, near Detroit, and is about
seven years old. A few weeks since he
was on the dock, when seeing the storm
come up. he took refuge under the deck
of sail-boat belonging to Mr.. F. w.
Backus, lying at the dock with the sail
hoisted. In moment after, the squall
struck her, when she broke from her
moorings and started toward the open
lake.
When first seen she was nearly half
way across the river, and the little fellow
had crawled from his place of shelter, and
taking his place at the helm, was endea-
voring to direct her course toward the
shore. Soon the rain came down in tor
rents, the wind had increased to perfect
hurricane and banks of the river were
lined with wailing women and children.
and strong men were powerless lockers
on. Noat boat was Immediately with
in reach. The sail>boat had almost
reached Stony Island, and the hearts OF
the lookers-on were for moment reliev-
ed, expecting to see her go ashore. when
all at once she broached to and came
abruptly around again, heading for
Crosse Isle.
AS the boom settled round. the anxious
spectators held their breath. For mo-

only again to re appear, holding manful-
ly the helm. Directly another fierce squall
struck the sail. the boat was thrown upon
her beam ends, and the sail and boom in
in the water, and cries Of Z" he's lost. he's
gone" were heard on all sides.
Still the gallant bark held her way
again she went about and look her course
towards Maiden, and again her brave
young pilot was plainly seen standing al
hOr helm. By this time boat had been
manned and put off to the rescue but
before getting any distance into the river
the sail boat took another turn, heading
toward home. She ran straight to the
middle Of the river, when Mr.. F. w
Backus and H. Gray, Esq" ran down tc
the bank and made signs to the boy to
keep the helm up or down as the mean
dering of the channel required.
He obeyed the signs like an old salt
and in few minutes the boat was rur
into shallow water. when the gentleman
named above were enabled to wade or
board. and in little time the boy was il

almost distracted spectator Of the whole
scene. In answer to the question to hoV
he was getting along when the gentlemen
boarded the boat, he said he was pretty
wet, but added, " Wasn't it lucky, Mr.

follwing account Of this game as prae-
ticed among the Germans. Hero, when
couple exchange philopoenas, the object
of each Is not mainly to be the first to
pronounce the common word at theifnext
meeting. but with the exchange the sport
has Just begun. The after object Of each
is to draw the other into accepting somo
offer, and If that is done, the word "phi-

both should always be on their guard. the
thing may pass to subsequent occasion.
