leaving their alternating quarters
they should have been less given to
sumptuous habits at the table.
Affairs, however, were by no
means settled. They had the dar-
ing trespasser on their domain treed,
and almost within their reach; and,
indeed, to keep out of the way OF
their uncomely claws, Kit was obli-
ged to gather himself up in the
smallest possible space and cling to
the topmost bcughs. The bears
now allowed themselves a short res
pite, for during which they gave
vent to their wrath by many shrill
screeches. Then they renewed their
endeavors to force the hunter from
his resting place.-Moupted on
their mind paws they would reach
for him; but the blows with the
stick, applied freely, to. their noses,
would make them desist. In vain
did they exhaust every means to
force the man to descend; he was
not to be driven or coaxed. The
hard knocks they had sustained up
on their noses had now reused them
almost to madness. Together they
made one desperate effort to tear
Kit from the tree. As in all their
previous attempts they were foiled,
and their ardor dampened and cool
ed by the drumming operations up
on their noses, which this time was
SO freely and strongly applied upon
one of them as to make him lachry-
mate and cry out with pain. One
at a time they departed; but it was
not until they had been out Of sight
and hearing for some time that. Xii

KIf CARSON'S ADVENTURE
WITH BEARS.
L..is

Late one afternoon, just after the
little party had gone into camp, Kit
having fingered somewhat behind,
suddenly rode into the camp ground
and leaped from his horse, giving it
in care of one of the men. With
his rife, he then started in pursuit
of game for supper. He walked on
about one mile from the camp, and
there came upon the fresh tracks OF
some elk. Following up the trail,
he discovered the game grazing on
the side Of hill. In the neighbor-
hood of the animals there was some
low and craggy pine trees. Moving
along with great care, he finally
gained the cover of the trees, which
brought him in close proximity to
the elk, and within certain range Of
his rife. This care was the more
necessary as his party had been
without meat diet for some time,
and began to be in great need there
of. These ever wary animals saw,
or scented him. or, at any rate he
came conscious Of approaching dan
ger from some cause before he could
reach the spot from which he de.
sired to take his aim. They had
commenced moving, and IN another
instant would have bounded away
cut of all reach of his rifle. His
eve and piece. however, were toi
quick for therny. for bringing hi
piece into position and without
dwelling he sped a bullet after th'

THE DEAD HOUSE AT MU-
(, = MICH.

A correspondent of the New York
Times, writing about the funeral of
Eberhard, the Oldest artist in Mu-
mich, bavaria, who died on the
18th March last, thus describes the
dead house and the precautions ta-
ken there against burial before life
is extinct:
When I arrived at the cementery,
the body was still in the Liechen-
haus, and the crowd were waiting
around the door. I worked MY way
to the window, and looked into the
room, saw six corpses, laid out in
horrible pomp, With Canopies, or
artificial flowers and foliage over
them, and wax candles burning all
around them. Each was dressed in
the garment of lfe-there were no
shrouds.
The rigid figure of a military Of
fcer seemed, even in death, to be
sitter far military coat with high
callar, and covered with gold lace
and embroidery. Another was a
bride, and lay in her veil and orange
flowers in the silent embrace of a
mightier bridegroom. And the old
Professor IN a dress coat, with his
white glo8ed hands crossed upon his
breast, and his. head Qike those Of
all the others) lifted out of che coffin
and ptopped up by cushion, seem
ed to be leeping CHASTITY night
mare sleep-so little did che stern
set face hormonize with the incon
gruoqs dress, and the empty stat'
| which surrounded it.
Each body had a small wire at.
tached to a ring upon its finger, apo
connected with bell, so that the
slightest motion would at once cal
the attendants. This precaution a
gainst mistaken burial before life il
really extinct, is of long standing
here. 1t is proper to say, however
as very fashionable nowadays, a
to the frequency of such an occur
renee, that the cases in which th'
supposed dead have manifested life
by motion, during the three days o
| their remaining in the Lieehenhaus
are altogether traditional-of lst
years, certainly, nothing of the kin'
has here taken place.

But, when you knelt beside me,
And your lips were pressed to mine
And I felt your warm breath on my

And your arms my form entwine
The dream-the dream was over,
And I know if death had lain
His icy fetters round me,
I'd have risen, Nelly, Vane.
I'd have risen, Nelly, darling,
