A Talking Bear.

An artist has recently published, in q
French journal, an account of his Swiss
sketching tour. On beautiful afternoon
in June, Of the presend year, he left bis
hotel in Intelaken, went out alone with
his camp-stool and easel, and srtayed as
far as the foot of the Jungfrau. As he
was about to begin his sketch, he was
startled by seeing, few yards in front
Of him, huge bear, that growled
ferociously, He seized x-chambered
revolver, and leveled it at the beast, but
before he could fire, he heard the words,
Halt! halt" The bear sat on bis hind
legs and wrung his forc-paws. "Whst!"
cried the arts, " do bears speak Eng
lich9" Then holding the revolver close to
the nose of the pretended beast, lie de-
manded, What dost thou in this accurs-
ed costume?" The rogue in the bears
skin replied that he was merely earning
his living. He was a driver by profes-
sion, but the season had been a very bad
one, and he was obliged to take another
trade. He had entered into a campact
with a number of guides to cloth himsel
in bear skin, (which can assure you
is as hot as purgatory in such weather as
this" and plant himself in one of the
favorite mountain paths. "When one OF
my associates comes along this road with
a tourist, I suddenly show myself. The
foreigner is ready to die with fright, but
the courageous guide rushes at me and
drives me away, naturally receiving =
very handsome douceur for his bravery
in risking his own life in order to
preserve that Of his employer" In tho
evening the bear and the guide generally
met at an inn aud divided the spoil.
The bear pleaded SO pitcously that the
artist did not have the heart to have him
arrested.

SUMMARY OF HEGENERAL NEWS
Weekly Revlo,v OF Enslish Crops.


LONDON, Dec. 4.-The Mark Lane En-
press says In its weekly review of the British
corn trade, English wheat continues to be
marketed sparingly in London and the pro-
vinccs. Imports Of foreign wheat into Lon
don have not been SO excessive as of late.
Mondays return gives about $4,000 quarters.
The falling of is chiefly noticeable in Indian
produce, of which prospective imports may be
more moderate. as Calcutta adviccs speak OF
an inadequate state of inland transport and
consequent difficulty Of chartcrers in fulfilling
their engagements. The open season has en-
ablcd shipments to be continued from St. Pc
tersburg, and our market remains well sup
piled with useful classes OF Russian wheat. A
good inquiry was experienced for American
descriptions, but shipments arc not taking
place 50 freely. Business has been exceeding
ly quiet but prices show an advance Of
a shilling per quarter OH all descriptions.
The requirements Of tho country are being
fully met by the weekly importation OF wheat,
and the present attitude of the trade is devoid
Of speculation. Strict attention is being
turned to political affairs and the probable fu-
ture action of America. Maize has lost some
of its recent activity, but full prices
are still attainabc, and unusually light i'm.
ports OF the grain render it unlikely that any
marked decline will occur as long Us southern
European ports remain blockadcd, and the cx-
port movement in America is directed upon
wheat grinding. Barley has improved six
pence to shilling per quarter at Mark Lane
and in the country. Oats and other varieties
Of feeding corn have met with sale at late

How an Agent Repeated tn History
OF Life Insurance. so T. EH.;i

An insurance canvasser tells tho fol-
lowing story: IT,,
I had been visiting and working with
See, good agent in Central New York:
He was full Of fun and days work, With
cheek like brass log and head like a.
tenpenny nail. We had worked hard
with scanty results. We had travelled
twenty-five miles to see q man, only TO
learn that he had moved tout west''ra,
month ago; VIC had convinced another b.,
hard four hours talk that he should
insure his life, only to learn that his faith:
er and mother had died Of consumption,
that he had some little! trouble with his.
lungs enough to matter anything
bleee your eoul. as sound = m.n u you
will find in all this section.'' Of courso
we didn't want his money. Toward
night Of the fourth day we weariedly
wended our winding wy, with only i've
small applications of insurance, into 4:
little town where See was well acquaint-,
ed. Stopping at the doctors Office,
which was on the second floor of neat.
building, and open, he said: 'I've got
two or three good cases here who can b.
easily written up; you take seat and I'll
60 out and find one and bring him in"
In few minutes he came back with the
pleasant-faced, rather plainly dressed
man, whom he introduced, saying: "Mr.
Green, want to introduce you to Mr.
Fessenden, who has been thinking Of
life-insurance, and would like to have
you give him a full explanation of the
principles of the business and descrip-
tion of the plans of the Company" He
turned to me and said: "He don't talk
much, but he is very anxious to hear;
tell him the whole story" Mr. Fessen-
den bowed, extended his hand for a
shake, and sat down in listening atti-
tude, and I began. If I ever tried to
give a full history of life insurance,
did this time he looked pleased and in
terested. I then took up the plans Of
the Company, and expatiated upon their
many advantages at considerable length,
concluding with the question: "Well,
Mr.. Fessenden, what do you think of life
insurance. There was no answer, but
the same steady, pleasant gaze. "1s
there anything further which I can ex:
plain to you?" Again no answer and no
change OF expression. It had just
the building, when ripple Of laughter
came from the head of the stairway, and
Mr.. Fessenden handed me a card bear
ing the inscription: II am deaf and
dumb; Mr.. See said you would make mo
hear if anybody could" In my fierce
anger, hurled my chair at the open
stairway; after prolonged rumbling,
mixed with hard words, heard from the
bottom voice saying: "Well, he said he
wanted to hear, and I knew you wanted
to talk" This closed my engagement
with Mr.. See; can't bear a man who
will take advantage of unsoph1sticated
innocence in any such way.

A Genuine Surprise.

Boys brought up on the sea-coast of
the British Islands have usually a passion
for the sea, and by the time they reach
generally come to the conclusion to run
away from home and ship as apprentices
on board the Newcastle colliers or foreign
trading vessels. Indeed, it may be said
with perfect truth, that the merchant
navy of Great Britain is largely recruited
from such runaways, and there are few
men of shore going occupation, whether
merchants, clerks, artisans or laborers,
who cannot look back to one of these run
away experiences in their own lives. It
would be destroying the romance of the
thing for boy to ask the consent of his
parents to go to sea; he must run away
and ship on his own hook, as all sailors
have done from time immemorial. Many
of these boys arrive in Newcastle on Tyne
without cent in their pockets, and SO
worn out that they are not able to walk
the remainder of the way to the shipping
port-North Shields-which is eight
miles down the river. These boys are
frequently referred to the keelman, and
these worthless never hesitate to give a boy
a passage down the river in their wher-
ries. On one occasion, a couple of boys
were given passage by keelman, and
on the passage he had the curiosity to look
into the bundles they carried. They
opened them, and, after displaying their
Sunday clothes and white shirts, pipes
and tobacco, the latter of which the keel
m an took possession of; one pulled out a
bar of soap. il, :.
"What is that2" the keelman inquired
"A bar of soap," answered the boy.
SAY man; is it good for eatin'2'' said
the keelman.
"Good for eating," said the boy smil
ing. "No; that's for washing YOURSELF y
"Ay, man. dye say sae," said the keel
man, "an' how div &c use it?'
