SAGACTTY OF THE BEAR. - That wild
beasts of all kinds are scared away by
fire is a well known fact, but the hungry
bear is Of So cunning a nature that he
even sets al defiance the flaming circle,
which would at time afford a secure
protection to the sleeping traveller. 1t
is truc hat the bear does not venture to
cross the fiery barrier, bat it contriveS
to avoid the difficulty in a most ingcni-
OuS manner. Going to the nearest
stream, il immerscs itself in thc.watcr
SO as to saturate It's fur with moisture,
and then returning to the spot where
the intended pray lies asleep. the ANIMAL
rolls owe the flaming cmbers, qnench-
Ing the fire, and then makes its attack
upon the sleeper. This curious factis
we'll known among the natives of Sibe-
ria, 50 that they have good grouds for
the respect. in which they hold the
bears intellectual powers.

The Shareholder,

Is the title of paper printed at Caha-
ba, Ala, and devoted to the dissemina-
tion of extreme Southern sectional doc
trines. 1t is, OF course, disunion sheet.
1t halls, with pleasure, the nomination of
breckenridge and Lane In its issue of the
2sth June, it spoke of the nomination as
follows.
The SOUTHERN TIcKEr.-We hoist to
day. as our choice of nominated candi-
dates for the Presidency and Vice- Prcside,,-
cy, the names of John G. Brickinridge, of
Kentucky, and Joe Lane of Oregon.
Our selection is made with special refer
ence to the principles we have heretofore
advocated, the most prominent, controll-
ing of which is, an union Of the Southern peo-
pile for the protection Of our Southern institt,-
tons.
Bell and Everett are the candidates of
National party--Douglas and Fitzpatrick
johnson now are the candidates of a
National party--but Breckenridge and
Lane are the candidates of q Southern Con-
sth,tionat party. The National Union party
have Bell and Everett-the National Squat.
ter Sovereignty party have Douglas and Fitz-
patIick-And the Southern Democracy, which
broke up the National organization of the
once powerful Democracy of the United
States, for the protection of the South,
have Breckinridgc and Lane. What
Southern man can hesitate in his choice !?
The action of which convention tends
more 10 unite the South? Which con-
ven4iof has gone further to break up Ma
Sonatparties, and break the spell which
heretofore has held the Union paramount
to S2aveyP Which ticket is most South
era, that which is nomiminated by The South,
or that which is nominated by National
party? If the preservation of Southern in
stitutions is more desirable than their
destruction, then the Southern candidates are
the men for the South to support. The
Southern States, in crisis like this, would
not, could not, and have not, nominated
ticket which is not sound 10 the core.

LIBERAL INTERPRETATION OF "FIvE PER
CENT."-A somewhat verdant looking in
dividual called on jeweler in Montreal,
and stated that he had managed to accu-
mulato, by hard labor for the few past
years, SOME seventy-hve dollars; that he
wished to invest in something, whereby
he might make money little faster; and
he had concluded to take some of his
stock and peddle it out. The jeweler se-
lected what he thought would sell readily,
and the new peddler started on his first
trip. He was gone but few days when
he returned, bought as much again as be.
fore, and started out on his second trip.
Again he returned, and greatly increased
his stock. He succeeded so we'll, and ac-
cumulated so fast that the jeweler one
day asked him what profit he obtained ON
what he sold? swell, | put on bout five
per cent" The jeweler thought that a
very small profit, and expressed as much.
"Well.', said the peddler, ~ don't know
as exactly understand about your per
cent, but an article for which pay you
one dollar, 1 generally sell for .fce."
