1t Costs More Than Bread.

A FEW days ago a policeman remarked
"There are three glasses of liquor drank
in this city for each loaf of bread that is
eaten"
Suppose this true; then for each loaf OF
bread, at ten cents, there Is paid tor drinks
thirty cents; or three times as much for
liquor as for bread!
1t is estimated that four barrels of flour
will supply family of five persons with
bread for year A barrel of flour will
make 264 pounds of bread, and the four
barrels will give 1856 pounds. At six
cents per pound this is 1854 for each
barrel of flour, or $623 for the four bar
rels If this estimate is too low, take five
barrels of flour for each family of five
persons, and the value of bread at six
cents pound is $500 year.
The $4,000 families of five persons
each, constituting the population OF the
city, consume at this rate bread to the
value of $14, Ala, 400 year.
There are in this city at least four thou
sand places were intoxicating liquors are
sold The number in New York and
Brooklyn, in 1866, was 9,27O.
If these receive, on an average, $50 Q
day each, that is $43, 800, 900 a year; or al
SIS day each, it is $2l 100000 year
1t is true some of the drinking houses are
mere "holes in the WALL" but others o
them are palaces. Some of them take il
only a few dollars day, while large mum
bers of others take in hundreds of dol
lars.
But it is not at the drinking houses, a
public bars, where all the intoxicating Ii
ouors are consumed. At esting-houses
at clubs, and at the hotels, are expended
large sums for wine and strong spirits
Thus the use of strong drink counts VI
very fast, as against bread.-Ne~ for'

An Indian Story.

A correspondent of the Detroit Free
Press writes follows:
About three miles from the village of
Greenville, in the county of Montcalm,
State of Michigan, is a small lake now
commonly known as Wabassa's Lake 1t
is handsome sheet of water, with a fine
shore free from swamps of brush, afford
ing pleasant resort to the lovers of fplscat-
orial sports. There is arOmantic, yet truth
full, history connected with it which sounds
more like an Indian tradition of centuries
ago than an actual occurrence of fifty
years since. While on an excursion few
days ago, | gathered the following story ,and
its truthtulncss has since been vOuched
for by other settlers A tribe of Indians
were then encamped on the shore of the
lake near it's outlet, stream of the same
name, and had just been paid by the gov
ernment quite large amount of gold and
silver, which they took to their camp, as
was their custom, undivided, held in their
charge by their Chief, "Wabassa." On
arriving at their camp and spreading their
gaily- covered blankets out admiringly, to-
gether with their trinkets purchased at the
station, some of the tribe, warmed more
or less with fire water" demanded their
portion of the gold Disputes arose as to
the relative share of each. Some claimed
more than share, claiming to have
contributed more to the protection or gen.
eral good, glory or dignity of the tribe.
High words were about to be followed by
bloodshed, when their chief demanded
silence, and proposed to them to wait till
the morrow should cool their excited
brains, and they could listen to reason
and words of counsel from the older men.
A truce was finally effected, and quiet
once more reigned throughout the camp,
when the Chief, regarding the gold as a
cause!of evil instead of a. blessing, stole
quietly out, carrying the gold with him.
and entering canoe, padded quickly and
nOiselessly to the centre of the lake, where
he consigned pot and gold to the deep
waters of the lake. In the morning he
did not deny what he had done, but was
in the midst of speech, telling them Of
their folly in being like the pale-faces
slaves to gold, when, with a loud whoop
the entire band set upon him, numbering
him, and mutilating his body in horrible
manner. His grave is still shown, ant
many have seen his son return, within th'
last twenty years. to mourn over it
Greedy hands have often sought for th'
lost gold, but to no purpose, for th'
waters are many hundreds OF feet il
depth, strange as it may seem, for 81
small a lake-a mere pond. But the stor!
is often told of the Pot of Gold in Wa
basSa'S Lake"

II passing up street the other day, we
met two little girls of some seven or eight
summers, who seemed to be enjoying vaca-

A Bear Hunt i'm Lapland.

A peasant generally goes out in search
Of his trail, and, having found it, moves
in a ring some miles in circumference, to
make sure of having him within il, he
then gradually contracts his circle, till he
Genes to the retreat itself of the animal
Weeks are sometimes expended in this
search ; the peasantry are summoned to a
skall by the landshOfoding, or Governor
of the province, and put under the dirtc
ton of the jOgmOstare, or ranger of the
district, who marshals them and commands
their movements. The peasants are gen.
orally formed into circles, and come armed
with whatever weapons they can procure.
Though opposed singly to whole host,
the bear often spreads havoc among his
assailants. Every ball that enters his
huge carcass but adds fire to his fury, and
woe to the individual w HON his wrath has
singled out. 1t ceases to be mere pas
time, and nothing but the greatest self
possession can save him from miserable
death. While at Hernosand, I saw rep
resentatiOn of an event that took place at
skall in the neighborhoOd, in 1881, and
which shows that bear-hunting must be
quite equal to tiger-hunting in excitement
and peril. The bear on this occasion was
very large; nothing like an American
bear, with which an Indian can grapple,
but an enormous beast able to carry
off pony under his arm. His
temper, probably never very good,
had been ruffled by ten shots lodged
in different parts of his body;
all present intrenched themselves, and
awaited some desperate effort on his part,
should not lucky shot give him his
quietus. AT this moment, a man, bolder
than his companions, advancing before
them, the bear rushed upon him, tore the
gun from his hands, and began to wound
him with his tremendous claws The
wretched man was unable to contend with
his muscular antagonist; already his
wounds were letting out his life, when a
young NOrrlander, unable to look quietly
on, rushed to his assistance. Besides the
danger which he himself incurred, and
which, of course, he had no feeling of,
there was some difficulty in shooting the
bear without striking the man. AS he
advanced, the bear rose on his hind legs
to meet his new opponent; his victim
dropped before him. the NOrrlander
seized the favorable opportunity, raised
his gun with both arms high above his
head, to bring it in horizontal position
on a level with the bears and, trusting
more to feeling than to sight, discharged
his piece. An immediate death wound
could alone save either from their enemy.
The success which the brave man de-
served attended him, and the ball passed
through the brain of the bear, which fell
dead on the rescued man.
