Louisiana Bear Chase.

The Saint Mary's Banner tells how Mr..
WILLIAM Cook, of Centerville, looking for
cattle among the briar patches below his
house, suddenly came upon bear of mon
strons Size ...u
Mounted on gentle horse, he concluded
to attemdt 10 turn the bear toward the
bayou, and keeping him from escaping To
The woods. lie had no weapon OF any kind
with which TO attack the bear. Bruin was
much excited and alarmed, and too intol-
erably fat 10 do good lighting, or TO make
"two-forty'3speed. SO by good maneuver-
ing. dashing charges and seasonable re-
treats, the horse aud rider worked the bear
within few hundred yards of Mr.. Cooks
house. Putting spurs 40 his horse, he fled
TO the house, opening two gates In the pas-
sage, called hastily for his Colts i've
shooter, and galioped at fill speed In pur-
suit of the bear, which was making di-
rectly for the woods, nearly melted under
scOrching sun. 10 e... ~
While Mr.. Cook was AFTER his five shoot
er, Doctor +. Allen and some negroes Mt
work In his field sailed out to check up
the bear on his retreat. One Of the negroes
struck him over the head with hoe. and
the bear turned upon him, but the negro
soon got out of his way. a great excite
ment was produced, but the bear kent
steadily on his weary retreat. When with
in a few yards of the fence next to the
woods, MIR. Cook overlook him. Riding
within a few feet Of him, he discharged hisi
five shooter, which took effect in his side.
A few steps more and the bear was on the
top rail Of the fence which settled under
his great weight. In this position Mr..
Cook rode up to him almost near enough 10
touch him with his revolver and put a bali
through him, near his heart. The bear not
yet sinking from the effect OF the shots.
moved slowly toward the bushes, and re-
ceiyed another ball through his rump. He
fell in the edge of the bushes and died soon
after He weighed four hundred and if-
teen pounds. He was divided out among
twenty or thirty families, and in two days
there was not enough of him left TO feed
cat on.

METHODIST SUNDAY SCHOOL MEETING
The regular monthly meeting Of the Ne.
thodist Sunday Schools was held in the
Manchester Methodist Church on yester-
day evening at o'clock. There was a
large attendance, and the meeting was
opened with prayer by Rev. Jacob Mann
ming, who was followed by the Rev. J. E.
Edwards, in an interesting address.
The reports of the different schools were
then read. A falling off in the aggregate
Of average attendance Of l07 was shown
since the last report, which may be readily
accounted for, in consideration of the num-
ber who have left the city, the intensely
hot weather, and of the rainy weather on
one Of the Sundays Of last month.
During the services the children were
catechised by Mr.. Asa Snyder, the Presi-
dent Of the Sunday School Union, and
showed by their answers remarkable prof.
cheney. Several hymns were we'll sung by
the scholars of the Manchester Sunday
school.
The meeting closed with bencdiction by
Rev. Mr.. Rosser. The next meeting was
appointed to be held in the Broad.street
Church on the second Sunday in August.

THE FIRST ARREST UNDER THE New LII
cENsE LAw-IMPoRTANT TO MERCHANTS
On Saturday, Mr.. W. B. List, Of Balti.
more, was arrested for violating the provi-
sions Of section seven Of an act of the Vir-
ginia Legislature, passed February l3, 1866,
amending the thirty eighth chapter of the
Code of 1861, in relation to licenses. The
amended act imposes penalty of not less
than two hundred dollars nor more than
FIVE thousand dollars upon any person who
may without license sell goods by sample
or as an agent. Mr.. List was staying at the
Exchange Hotel, and is the representative
of Messrs. Lord g. Robertson, of Baltimore
He is said to have been making sales for
that house without license, and has been
bailed in the sum Of one thousand dollars
TO appear before the Mayor this morning.
Our merchants have already suffered
great loss in trade by the competition OF
agents and travellers for northern houses,
who pay no rent, tax, or license in this
city, and it is quite time that this unfair
and injurious trading should be put an
end to-

MANCHESTER, Wednesday afternoon.

Mother, who is intensely religious, has
always aimed to teach me that Affections
were beneficial in their effect upon our
character. Heretofore she has found me a
dull scholar. have often confounded her
by entreating her to explain how my ma
ture could be improved by a spell Of the
tooth-ache, or groaning experience OF
acute rheumatism. Her mild reply, ever
the same, was that she was not prepared to
give me the ho,o and the ,chy Of the thing,
but, as q fact, her Bible and personal his
tory told her that Affections, though pain.

o'clock, for the benefit of the Oakwood

in hearing about his wife, and those whose
eyes moistened with tears at the pictures
which the lecturer drew of the sutferings
of poor Johnny will find their hearts
touched still more deeply with the suffer.
ings and trials of his faithful wife.
