Money Matters at Boston.

Boston, Nov. 14.-The money market
here continues quiet, and the supply OF
first class paper limited, capital, mean
while, appears abundant, and for the
want Of better employment is finding its
way into the stock board, where large
purchases for investment are being made
The market, therefore, closes this after
noon with still stronger aspect, and
with more confidence apparent than has
been observable since the setting in of the
panic.
The banks are sounder than ever, and
their statement next week will show a
healthful feeling in every department.

ass@ The bears-not of Wall street
BILE in some of the northern frontier States,
particularly in Maine. This State we fear
is fast going back to the dominion of the
various indigenous 'varmints" which the
primitive "squatters' on American soil
were wont straightway to set about ex-
tirpating along with trees and Indians
Ina single county of that State, forty one
bears have been killed within few days,
while many others, evading guns and
traps, are prowling ominously about
the farm houses, killing cattle and sheep
and even attacking men. We hope that
Bruin may be taught better manners.

Rfs" We have heard good story, which
we believe has not yet found its way into
print. Thus runs the legend: Orono, on
the Penobscot river, in Maine, is -four
ishing village, noted for its manufacture of
lumber, and for the noise made about it,
as a magnificent city IN datbio prospectu,
during the Speculation times" of 1886
Y. As might be imagined, this village
harbored great many rather hard char
acters, including profane swearers and
others not at all strict in an observance Of
the lesser moralities. One day it chanced
that pretty good man died and applied
at the door of Paradise for admission
Saint PETER, attentively contemplating
him from head to foot, at length inquired
"Whence came you ?" to which the poor
fellow timidly made answer "trom Orono.
"From Orono ~Orono! where's Orono p
