JAMES covERr's BEAR STORY.

James Jackson and myself were once IN pur-
suit of large bear. Jackson shot and wound
ed the bear In the hips. The bear made for a
gully, and we in hot pursuit followed. In his
haste, the bear, in going down bank, tumbled
and fell on his back into hole, with his feet
sticking up. 1 erept down TO him, but got so
near that he laid hold OF my foot with his teeth
and bit through my foot, boot and all, aud hung
on with his paws. He reached up and scratch
ed and tore in cruel manner, tearing my pants
to strings, and lacerating my leg awfully. /
reached and got hold Of a sapling and pulled
myself and the bear out Of the hole, so that
the dogs could play upon him He then let 20
his hold. All this time Jackson stood looking
on and laughing. We soon dispatched the
bear, and went home, where was confined a
long time.
At one time took forty pounds Of maple
sugar or my back and carried It to the center Of
Mentor, and sold it for one shilling per pound.
The wolves used frequently TO chase US. At
one time when | was coming from Chagrin, four
wolves chased me; the only thing | could see
was their eyes
built me a log cabin cabin l6 feet square,
and in it my wife bore fourteen children, whom
we raised. For the first five years we had one
every year. had by my first wife fourteen
children, and by my second wife Matchmaking
twenty-three. Twenty-Five Of them lived to
grow up.
From the first pigs that owned and their
increase, l have frequently had as high as one
hundred hogs at a time. have had as high as
twenty horses and seventy or eighty head of
cattle at time

REMEMBRANCE.

There are moments sadly pleasing,
Sometimes heightened into hours;
When from Lethe's bank we gather
ReeollectiOns without flowers.
Fancy then with moonlight pencil,
Paints the faded leaves again,
Giving some tinge Of pleasure
Giving some shade ofpain.
Thought viii come on Doiseless pinions,
Bringing mem'ries buried long,
Humming with forgotten voices,
Snatches Of sn old-time song.
Shadows start from out the darkness,
or the world we've left behind,
And with fragments Of remembrance,
Weave q net work round the mind.

ending in the subscriptions being declared
bogus, and withdrawn.
A startling revelation is made BY the com,
mittee relative TO the bank note reporters.
Proof seems TO have been afforded that some
of these publications are regular black mail
sheets, which quote barks in good or bad
standing according as the conductors are feed
Letters aud circulars are described as being
sent TO banks, requiring immediate correspon-
dence or a personal visit, TO make certain ar
rangements on pain of disagreeablo conse
quences.
Altogether this report is calculated 10 sur
prise the people of Philadelphia and Pcnnsyl-
vania, and put them on their guard against
spectators in bogus banks. All these insii-
tutions have been manufactured by one gang
of Buffalo operators, and of the wosss
species of wild cat.

The EPIDEMIC AT YoRK.-A few weeks since
a report was circulated by somebody in York
that the cholera was prevailing in Columbia,
Pa, which agitated the nerves of people who
had to travel through the latter place. The
editor of the Columbia Spy made light of the
matter, and in order to burlesque the cholera
excitement, stated that the s.itch'' was depop-
ulating the town of York. 1t seems that this
little bit of fun was taken in earnest, and all
over the State it was believed that the people
OF that 'sancient borough" were literally
scratching their way through the orld.''-
TIE last Spy explains the matter fully, and
thus it turns out that the York i'ch excitement
was no great scratch after all.

"WEAK AT THE KNEES"

Everybody is aware that during the late ses-
sion of Congress, Senator Bigler did all that
lay in his power to force through the Lecomp-
ton swindle. The extraordinary efforts he
made to accomplish that, and his bitter de-
nunciation of prominent Anti-Leconptou De-
mocrats, might lead some to suppose that he
was always sssound on the goose" Here,
however, it is well known that during the cam
paign of 1856 he created the impression that
he, as well as Mr.. Buchanan, was in favor of
"Free Kansas" and it was only by such assu-
RANGES that many honest-disposed Democrats
were induced to vote for the candidates of that
party. Recently there has been some talk
that Secretary Stanton had in his possession a
letter from Mr.. Bigler, written whilst Walker
was Governor of Kansas, in which there were
some reflections against the Administration.
The following, which we find in the Philadel-
phia Press, Col. Forney's paper, of the 14th
inst, would indicate that such letter is in
existence, for it is not at all probable that For
ney would publish it without being certain of
the genuineness of the extract he gives. We
give his remarks and the extract just as We
find them in the Press:
"SESAToR BIGLER IN AUGUST, 1S57.-Wil-
liam Bgler, the recreant Senator from Penn
sylvania, is now ostracising from the Demo-
cratic party Douglas, Wise, Walker, Stanton,
and all vino oppose the Lecompton Co1stitu-
fion. His denunciation OF Stanton we under
stand, is particularly severe. Under these cir
cumstances, there is an obvious propriety in
printing the following extract from letter of
this same Senator Bigler to Secretary Stanton,
dated Clearfield, Pa, august IA, 1857:
'sMake my special regards to Governor
Walker, and say to him THAT HE HAS THE Pop
ULAR HEART WITH HIM THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE
COUNTRY, EXCEPT ONLY THE EXTREME SoUTH.
Should his programme succeed, he WILL have
THE MOST ENvIABL2 PROMINENCE OF ANY MAN IN
THE NATION. The administration is a little
treak at the knees, and rinces under the Southern
thunder, but they must stand up 10 The ,cork."
Sure enoughl ga little weak at the knees,
and winces under Southern thunder 10 We
wonder what the Administration will think of
that opinion.
