On Sunday evening George o. Boyce OF
South Fayston, in Washington county, saw
a bear come out of piece of woods famil-
iarly known as "Spruce Hill, a trife more
than hundred rods above his dwelling
house, and cross over through his pasture
into small tract of woodland. Bruin
passed through this piece of woods, crossed
the road and soon made his appearance in
meadow not above eighty rods from his
house and thence into his pasture where he
disappeared in the woods. He was walk
ing at lively gait. Mr.. Boycc did not
give chase as the darkness was coming on,
but he says Barnum may have him If he
will cage him.
]. N. Hagar, of Woodford, on Sunday
morning last, sped black bear. and raj
lied out party and killed the fellow.
Bruin had been 0 sheep-kiler for MIR. lia-
gar and only the previous day he had seen
his majesty throttle fine lamb, and he
thought the game about played out.
Sunday seems to I've great day for
bears.
Some excitement has been occasoncd in
the western part of Chelsea by the pres
cnce of lynx, which has been seen by a
large number of people, and has killed two
sheep for Mr. Peter Stevens
On Saturday evening last new excite
ment was afforded the citizens of Newport
in Orleans county. About shutdown word
came into the village that bear had been
seen Just out on Coventry street making
his way on to Prospect Hill Men, boys
and dogs started and surrounded the hill.
No one of the party saw the animal but
several heard it, and followed it with dogs
as far as the swamp in Coventry. From

was up large tree there, so the party kin
died fire and laid down till morning Ii
the morning no trace of Bruin was to be

ANOTHER HORRIBLE TRAGEDY IN NEW
YoRK.-Nep York, December 22.-About
half.past 2 O'Clock this morning cries OF muir
der were heard from window in the five
story tenement-house No. 204 Broome street:
An officer upon entering the building found
the body of a man lying in pool OF blood
with bis throat cut from ear to ear, and upon
entering the room of the deceased found the
dead body of young woman with her
throat cut. The walls and stairway were
literally covered with blood from the room
where the dead body of the woman was
found to the second landing, where the body
of the man was found. 1t was at first be-
lieyed that the deceased (Michael Ryan, cut
his sisters throat and then bis own, but the
police, upon instituting search, found Inc
vest of the murdered man on the roof: Inc
button-hole which held his watch-chaln was
pulled out and his pockets rifled. A box IN
which deceased kept his handbook was mss.
iug. On the stairs leading to the roof, as
we'll as thereon, bloody footprints were
found. and it is the belief OF the police tnat
robbery and murder have been committed
So far no clue to the perpetrators has peen
discovered.

Washinaton, December 21.-Public opinion
fin ash1nRt n:has become sett,ed That Judge
Williams willnot, be confirmed to be Chief
Justice. The Investigation TINT has been
made BY the Judiciary Committee has dis
closed practices and facts which the commit
tee strongly condemn, and which will proba-
bly, prevent favorable report. The friends
Of Acknowledgement Williams are very In
dignant that he should be slaughtered for
doing things which they say nearly every
Cabinet Minister Is guilty of. If there is to
be uny such close scrutiny of the expend-
ture Of the contingent fund In the Depart
ment OF Justice they say let there be also
an inquiry as to the authority of law by
which other members of the Cabinet and
officials Of lower rank make the Govern.
ment pay for their private carriages, and
keep their coachmen and other servants on
the Department rolls. If the expenditure Of
the contingent fund in all of the depart
ments and bureaus was carefully investi-
gated there is no doubt that a great many
leaks would be discovered.

JAMES L. kEMPER, GovERS0R-ELECT OF
VIRGlNIA.-The following is an illustration
of clear grit" extracted from discourse
delivered by Rev. J. S. Grasty, d. D., to the
young men of his congregation:
"James L. Kemper, Goyernor-elect OF
Virs inia, is the scion OF an ancient and
highly respectable family in the county OF
Madison. But the kempers, like large
majority of those who are famous in the
annals of the Old Dominion, were not
remarkable for the amount OF their
worldly goods. With this class intel
Iect, honor, and an independent spirit
were valued as unspeakably more precious
than silver and gold. The speaker and
Young Kemper were classmates at the lnstl-
tuition now called Washington and Lee.

pearance can be recalled with perfect ifesn'
