How Sandusky was Saved.

At tie time OF which we write. the
woods in the vicinity, and n fact
throughout the Western Reserve, were
frequented by vast numbers Of wild hogs,
which obtained bountiful subsistence,
and grew fat upon the shucks which ev-
eryvhere abonnded. These hogs were
doubtless estrays, but the sparaeness of
the population in the interior aud the
rapidly with which they multiplied.
rendered them strangers to man and
very shy Of his presence. During the
droutb, large droves Of these animals
wendsi their way to the lake, IN the
