tree; the bear badly mangled his heels with his teeth and claws. MT. Brown hal looed for help, and, after suffering much through fear and from his lacerated feet, help arrived-a man, hunting in the woods with his dog, heard him; the dog seached him before his master and worried the bear, and he quit the assault before the man ar rived. MT. Brown, glad to part with bruin, was helped home his wounds were healed, l the scars of which were to be seen through | life.
 Several years after, Mr. Nathaniel Roys, then living near where Silas Burr now re- sides, was going round to where Capt Au- ren Tibbals now lives; turning round the end of the winrow, so called, he was met by bear; it soon prepared for an attack Mir. Roys stood considering whether to meet the bear unarmed or trace back his steps; he, having come out of his shop with his leather apron on, thought with himself he would try that as a weapon of defense. He looked sternly upon him, shook his leather apron, and sprang toward him; bruin, not used to that mode of at- tack, settled down from hls rampant pos. ture and made use of all his legs to assist him in his flight from the frowning face and frightful rattle of his antagonist.
 About the time of meeting the bear, or perhaps the winter following, MT. Roys, busily engaged in his shop, and his boys as busily engaged in gambols and play about the door-yard, several guns were heard on the mountain west of his house, he sprang from his shop anl joined the boys in look ing anxiously up the mountain l; their curi osity Was soon gratified by seeing three deer rushing down, come to a perpendicu- lar ledge west of Mr. Burr's dwelling house. they plunged down, almost burying them selves in the snow; soon, however, they recovered, and the old buck, leading the way, passed by the house, through the meadow, and on to the Brown mountain.

to sec here in o. s. Ferry's place, and
 don't mind mentioning the first two letters
 of his name; they are Joseph R. Hawley
 The fiorid gentleman wonder engaged ir
 the praiseworthy occupation of cleaning
 his finger nails, is Matt Carpenter. He is
 a ready debater; sarcastic and witty, 6
 strong Administration man as the phrase
 goes. Across the aisle from Carpenter sits
 an honorable senator who certainly is not a
 member of the Salisbury Good Samaritans,
 and verify believe of no other temperance
 organization. His name was incidentally
 mentioned in connection with the Vice
 Presidency few years since. IL is F. P.
 Blair; "Skuzes" colleague In Blair's
 neighborhood, our friend points out to us, Sprague, the rich, and John Sherman, the honest; California Cole, brother of the Hiscock-Cole Corbett of Oregon who was pointed out to us many times and nev- CT without the addition, "husband of the prettiest woman in Washington" In the front row of this tier of seats sits a senator who has just hobbled in on crutches; when he addresses the Chair, he will do so from his seat, for O. F. Morton is we'll nigh a physical wreck. An entire physical wreck is found on the other side of the chamber, in the palsied frame of that poor man who has just been carried to his seat. He is not able to move, but the fire of his eye shows that his mind is unimpaired, and that the characteristic style that used to appear in the Knoxville Whtg is still retained, is evi- denced by the address which is read for poor Brownlow by the clerk few days after. But here, what am I about that l have passed by that distinguished states man who sits just in front of Matt. Car. penter? The observed of all observers, it is not, no, it cant be Apollo strayed away from Parnassus to Washington. No, but it is his first cousin, H. R. H. Lord Roscoe Conkling. How in the world the represent her in the senate, cannot con- ceive, yet there he sits just like the other senators, he even rises when he addresses the Chair, and oh marvellous condescension! he uses the English language, Now that Lord Roscoe has been mentioned, there is not much more of the senate to describe,- to be sure there are Hamlin, Wilson, Free linghuyson, Logan, Fenton, Edmunds, Cameron, Sherman and others, but they are nothing in comparison with the great Conk- ling, We have seen him and we still live Let us hence while we may, for who can tell what fate may be in store for us, should it come to his lordship's ears, that we had rushed unbidden into his presence.
