THREE SMALL BOYS KILL THREE BEARS
One of the most exciting hunting affairs
which has ever taken place in this section
occurred on Friday, the 18th instant, near
DIR. Perry mill, in the town Of Dupont
Jimmy Doty, lad Of twelve years, another
lad by the name of case, and still younger
one whose name we did not learn, were wan
dering along the road short distance from
the mill, when they came suddenly upon
three bears-an old and large she bear with
her two cubs. Young Doty, who had u gun
in his possession, Immediately drew up and
fired at the old bear in courageous manner,
but without any apparent effect, as she
wheeled upon the boys and made at them in
the most savage style, the cubs. however, in
their fright running up tree. The boy
Case, who had commenced climbing tree as
soon as he discovered the animals, was now
safely lodged in small sapling near ut hand,
and the old bear, seeming to think he was
her safest game, tried to climb the tree. As
soon as she reared for the purpose, n small
dog which belonged to Doty, ran behind and
gave her smart bite in the rear, whereupon
her bearship in very bcar-likc manner
turned upon the dog and chased him some
distance off, and then at once returned to
the rear to finish Case. But in the mean
time young Doty nau hanueu INC gun up W
Case, and, with the other small boy, bad
also climbed a tree. The bear, nothing
daunted at the state Of affairs, made for
Cases tree again. While climbing, q fair
shot was offered, and Case blazed away,
knocking Mrs. Bear'down to the ground, who
now dragged herself away few rods and
died. The boys now came down from their
perches, and commenced firing upon the
young bears, which still clung to the trees,
and few shots brought them to the ground.
The boys then returned to the mill and told
their story, which was hardly credited by
those who heard it, but upon going out to the
scene of action the game was found, thus
verifying the statement of the boys Hau-
pecd Criterion.

MosT OUTRAGEOUS AFFAIR.-A few days
since, an occurrence transpired in the north
crn part of the city, the details of which are
of most revolving nature. 1t appears that
d man occupied room in house on Broad
way, near Montgomery street, where several
other persons were rooming. One evening
he was taken sick, and alter lying several
days, expired. During his illness no one
visited him, no kind friend was near to cool
his feverish brow not even fellow lodger
went to ascertain the cause of his sickness.
Thus he died, alone and uncared-for. After
his death some one went to his room, and
receiving no answer, tried the door, and
found that it was open. On entering he saw
the dead man, and at glance noticed that
the loathsomc disease. small pox, had car
ried him off. He went and informed the
proprietor of the house Of the circumstance.
That individual, (our informant says,) upon
hearing the fact of the case, went into the
room of the deceased. partially clothed him,
then tied a rope around his body, and drag
,,ed him out of bed down flight of stairs,
and thence into "a wood-shed. where the bo'.y
remained until an undertaken came and

Bge In speech made BY Alex. H.

November 1860, he said
"'nhe President of the United States
is no emperor--no dictator; he is
clothed with no absolute power He
can do nothing unless he is backed by
power IN Congress.
MIR Lincoln cannot appoint AZ Of
ticer without the consent Of the SEN
ate; he cannot form cabinet with
ouJ the same consent. He will be in
the condition of George III. who had
to ask the whigs.to appoint the min
listers, and was compelled to receive
a cabinit utterly opposed to hisviews.
And so Mr. Lincoln will have to ask
OF the Senate to choose for him cab
met. if the democracy of that body
choose TO put him on such terms.--
He Will have to do this or let the gov
ernment stop, should the democracy
SO determine"
There are few men whose opinions
the present Democratic party has a
higher opinion than for those Of Mr..
Stephens. We commend Democrats
to study this extract, and observe
how it applies to the case Of Andrew
