DESPERATE ENCOUNTER WITH A
BEAR. r.

A we'll known and prominent citizen of Nor
folk Va, while hunting for wild geese, near
Currituck Sound, n c., last week, encountered
game Of an entirely different and expected char
acter, in the shape of formidable black bear.
He had just finished re-loading his gun Ga
double barely when he discovered the animal
making slow but steady strides toward him
Being man of GOODNESS and courage, he felt
that his life depended upon both He carefully
examined his piece, drew dirk knife from his
pocket-which he invariably carried-opened
the blade, put the handle between his teeth,
braced his back firmly against tree, and with
as much calmness as man O. his temperament
could command under such exciting circum-
| stances, awaited the approach of the huge mon
ster. All this was but the preparation Of few
seconds. The animal now comes to dead stop
within hundred feet Of its intended victim,
scents the air as if it was impregnated with blood,
and again moves onward, but with more stealth
ly pace. Our hero now makes up his mind that
an encounter for life or death is inevitable. He
raises his gun to his shoulder-and fearing to
let the bear come nearer to him than about fifty
feet, lest he might be taken unawsres and tbrown
off his guard by sudden spring from the ami
mal-pulls the trigger of the right barrel, but
! the cap failed to explode. Not moment was
to be st, as the bear was within few PAGES of
him. With steady aim the trigger Of the left
| barrel was pulled, and a large charge of buck
shot was planted in and between the eyes of the
monster, which caused him to howl most furi-
| ously. With all the instincts of wounded arr
NAL rage, it sprang upon our hero and now
| came the death hug. Both rolled upon the
ground, aud fortunately the man became disen-
tangled from the embrace of the monster and
quick fash Of lightning plunged bis dirk
| up to the hilt 10 the beasts throat.
| a few hours afterwards two negroes happened
| at the spot, and found the victor stretched his
| length upon the ground. His left shoulder was
| found to be much lacerated by the first grip of
| the bear He was taken to a neighboring hut
where be remained until a conveyance arrived
to take him to bis residence in Norfolk. For
the first two or three days he was quite deliri-
Gus, and would occasionally exclaim, "Give me
| timeP' which was undoubtedly his in'uitive
thought while struggling with his fearful an
tagonist. The bear was one of the largest of its
| species ever seen by any inhabitant living in or
around the region where it was killed 1t
weighed 100 pounds before being dressed.
