THE BLACK BEARS CUNNING.

In the Century Magazine, Charles @.
Ward describes Bruins haunts in Maine and
New Brunswick, relates several hunting in
eidents, and depicts Bruins pecularities, in
part as follows:

sense of humor; at all events his actions
point that way, and there is no doubt that
he is extremely cunning and observing.

had piece of stick about two feet long,
which he tossed about for amusement.
After time he came to handle the stick
very much as my friend did his flute.
This annoyed my sensitive friend, and in re.

his opportunity for delivering tremendous
blow with his paw at his enemy, whose tall
hat was knocked completely over his eyes.
He escaped being scalped by dropping flat
and rolling out of the reach of the bear.

The Best History of England.
Since the publication Of Macau;ay's
famous work, no history of England has
more promptly and deseryedly won the
very highest reputation, than Green's
{" History of the English People" Rank
ing fairly with Macaulay in the brilliancy
and interest Of its style, and superior to
it in its accurate delineation of events, it
covers the entire field of English history,
from the earliest to recent times, land
giving the history of the people, rather
than of the conflicts of the kings, only, J
while Macaulay's history is limited to a
brief period. Green was first published
in this country by the Harpers, in four
octave volumes, for $1,000, but The Use

prices ranging from 65 cents for "Util-

There is, in the Doylestown Cemetery,
a little grave made in the year 1870 upon
which for twelve years have lain the boy
ish toys which were once the delight of
the departed little one who lies beneath.
They are just such as the youthful heart
would covet, yet they have remained I'M
disturbed, and respected by all save the
elements. The writer saw them there five
or six years ago, and again within few
days. The first time, rust was invading
the gaudy paint, now it has gained COM
plete ascendency, and they have lost their
attractiveness but the fact that they
have remained there all this time seems
to be worthy Of word of comment, and
certainly speaks strongly in favor of the
orderliness and sense of propriety of the
youthful population of Doylestown. The
question involuntarily comes to mind,
could We expect as much in Lambert
vile ? Alas, we fear not.

The church was handsomely decorated
with flowers, and bird cages were sus-

the songs of canaries frequently sounded
forth. Among the decorations were a
large floral anchor back of the pulpit,

in the Supreme Court at Trenton, which
in effect sets aside all the licenses granted
to hotels in this city by the County Court.
The opinion also sets aside the licenses
grated by the Courts to hotels in French

stitutionality of the act of 1879, relative
to tavern licenses in certain cities claimed
to be affected thereby. The defendant
had received a tavern license from the

struction Of the act of 1879, that it re-
pealed the charter of Lambertville, which
vested the power to license in the Council.
Held. That the act of 1879 was special
and local within the constitutional amend
ments of 1875, and the license granted by
the Pleas was set aside and annulled.

For some time Mir. Dod- son has been on the watch for this man, having in his possession a correct likeness from which to work from. Dodson got sight of his man yesterday after his arrival from Lail's camp, where he has been en- ployed for some time.

PRISON BIRDS.

Prison Commissioner Bufum informs us that there are now fifty-four prisoners in the Yuma boarding house provided for criminals. Crime during the last year has been on the increase if we are to take the number of convicts in Yuma prison as basis to go by. Yavapai county will send from this term of its criminal court at least twelve more which will swell the number to nearly seventy. Good work shops should be started, convict labor util- ized and the prison made self-sustaining. A large prison full of idlers, living at the expense of the taxpayers is rather an extensive luxury and one which cannot be digested readily. The treatment of prisoners at Yuma is said to be good. quarters comfortable and food wholesome, such being the case why not make the in- mates workl
