Last night at about IL O'Clock, a person
who is said to be a Swede, went into Joe
Roses saloon and e~ndeavored to kick up
a row. He partly succeeded, when Officer
Nolan appeared on the scene. He was
about to take the fellow into custody
when he dropped his revolver on the
sidewalk. While picking it up the Swede
started off but was pursued by Officer
Sullivan who happened along. Sullivan
fired three shots and finally captured his
man and locked him up in the calaboose.

came suddenly upon very large
bear in a swamp, lying upon a large
hollow log across q brook fishing, aud
he was so much interested in his sport
that he did not notice me until l had
approached very near to him, so | could
ste exactly how he baited his hook and
played his fish. He tished in this wise:
There was large hole through the log
on which he lay, and he thrust his fore
ann through the hole and held his open
paw in the water, and waited for the
Iish to gather around and into it, and,
when fuli, he clutched his list and
Drought up handful Of fish, aud sat
and ate them with great gustO; then
down with the paw again, and so on.
The brook as fairly alive with little
trout and red. sided suckers and some
black suckers, so the old fellow let him
self out on the fishes. He did not eat
their heads. There was quite pile Of
them on the log. 1 suppose the oil in
his paw attracted the fish, and baited
them better even than q fly-hook, and
his tOenail-> were his hooks, and sharp
ones, too, and once grabbed, the fish
were sure to stay.

shown in an instance related by j.

a female monkey, carried it to his

ed by forty or fifty of her companions,
who made great noise and seemed
about to attack their enemy. Till his
gun, the dreadful effect of which they
had witnessed, was presented, however,
the head of the party stood the ground,
chattering furiously. The sportsman,
feeling some little conjunction for
having killed one of them, did not like
to fire at the creature, and yet nothing
short of firing would suffice to drive
hem of. AT length he came to the
Soor,of the tent, began lamentable
moaning, and by the most expressive
gesture seemed to beg for the dead body,
which was at last given to him; sorrow
fully he took it in his arms and bore
