Closing Scene" by T. BUCHANAN READ the best that hs
ever been written by an American author:
Within this sober realm of leafless trees,
The russet year inhaled the dreamy air.
Like some tanned reaper in his hour of ease,
When all the fields are laying brown and baro.
The gray barns looking from their haLy hills
Der the dim waters widening in the wales,
Sent down the air greeting to the mills,
On the dull thunder Of alternate Fails

How George Became a TcetotaIer.

a short time since young man living in
Ogdensburgh N. Y, whose name we shall
call George, took to drinking rather moro
than usual, and some of his friends under
took to cure him. One day when he was in
a rather loose condition, they got him into
a room and commenced convcrsing about
dslirium trcmens, directing all their re-
remarks to him, and telling him what fear
ful objects, such as snakes and rats, were al
ways seen by the victims of this horrible dis
case When tho conversation had waxed
high on this theme, one of the number
stepped out Of the room, and from trap
which was at hand, let large rat into his
room. None of his friends appeared to see
it, but the young man who was to be the
victim, seized chair and hurled it at the rat,
completely using up the piece of furniture
in the operation. Another chair shared the
same fate, when his friends seized him, and
with terror depicted in their faces, demanded
to know what was the matter. "Why, don't
you see that cussed big rat F said he point
ing to the animal, which after the manner
of rats,was making its way around the room,
close to the walls.
They all saw it, but all replied that they
didn't see it-"there was no rat"
"But there is w said he, rs another chair
went to pieces in an Intellectual attempt to
crush the obnoxious vermin.
At this moment they again seized him,
and after terrific scuffle, threw him down
on the floor, and with terror in their faces
screamed,
"Charley, run for the doctorr'
Charley started for the door, when George
desired to bo informed 'what the dovil was
upp
up" said they, "why you've got the de-
lirium tromcns."
Charley opened the door to 90 out, when
George raised himself on his elbow, and said,

A BEAR TREED DY HoRsE.-Bcars are
more numerous this season than for several
years in the central counties of tho State,
and adventures with them arc quite COM
mon. Mr.. D. Cross of Fairfield, who re-
Gently visited Eaton County, related to us
an affair which occurred four miles cast Of
Eaton Rapids, which presents an example
of maternal euro by marc for her colt that
is rarely exhibited by the horse kind, if it
was not a air-breadth adventure. A marc
with colt by her side, was feeding in q
pasture, when she was approached by three
bears-an old one and two cubs nearly full
grown. Alarmed for the safety of her colt,
the marc forgot the usual fear of the horse
for these animal, and attacked them with
such vigor that they were forced to retreat.
They were pursued SO closely that ono of
thcm was compelled to seek safety, and re-
main in tree until the owner of tho mare,
who had watched tho whole proceedings,
went to his house for gun, returned and
shot it.--Adrian, Mich., Watch Toper.
