a near story.

EDrroR MISUNDERSTANDING in one
of the counties Of the Pine Tree State
was truly enacted the following de
scribed scene. Grandfather Bragdon
with his wife and his nephew Amos,
lived in little log catin in little clear.
ing in the dark forest that bounded a
certain large and beautiful bay. 1t was
in the primeval days of the settlement
of that country. The forest was full OF
bears, wolves, foxes and wild cats. The
early settlers had their sheep and cattle,
their little patches Of corn, rye and
wheat. 1t SO happened that Grandfather
Bragdon was the owner of one of these
fine patches of corn, the reward Of his
industry, helped by his nephew Amos.
The old man idolized this patch OF corn,
and when one morning he found that an
old she bear with her two cubs had
played sad havoc with it he was very
wroth and accordingly laid his plans to
utterly destroy that old she bear and
her cubs, There was standing in the
midst Of the corn field o very large pop
lar tree, and the old man latter having
given instructions to his nephew to come
to his aid in case of needl, one dark
night stationed himself under the big
tree. The hours passed slowly, when,
about midnight, the old man heard .
cracking among the corn. He awaited
his opportunity and raised his old flint
lock Q{ings-arm) in the direction Of the
sound aud fired-then came the first
sequel. The old man shouted to the top
Of his lungs, Amos, ahoyl have killed
the ole diviI an the young divils have
elm up into the big tree-ee-ee.ee-ee. "
Amos, whose ears we're open to the call,
jumped out of bed and in his nervous
excitement put ON his pants, as he sup
posed, but he only got one leg on while
the other hung dangling as he ran to
the aid Of his grandfather. Both stood
at the roots of the big tree pelting away
into its branches until daylight revealed
to them the two cubs caught in the
branches thereof, perforated with bullet
holes. Second sequel. w.

rrrANoE AND TRADE.
The New York stock Market


The New York stock Market.
New YoRK. March 4.-Government
bonds were dull and heavy. Believers
in higher prices in stocks following the
supposed settlement of differences be-
the Reading syndicate and Mr.. Cover
were disappointed. To-day opening
prices were irregular. showing changes
ranging from decline of in Delaware
and Hudson to an advance of in Read
ing. In the first few minutes the.e was
a decided break, which was followed by
a slow rally during the forenoon. After
midday the market was heavy, the last
hour decidedly weak, Lackawanna
yielding in the last As minutes n and
other coal stocks smaller amounts, and
the whole list fractions. Western Union
was weak, selling down to 693 and clos
ing at 7Of. The street was well supplied
with rumors OF cutting on transconti-
mental business, and it was positively
stated later in the day that the Atchison
company had succeeded in getting a cut
of ST so on freight from New York to
the Missouri river. The greatest weak
ness, however, in the last hour was in
the coal stocks.

WASHINGTON, March A. Secretary
Lamar has requested the Attorney Gen
eral to institute suits in the name Of the
United States to obtain cancellation Of
the patents issued to the State Of Cali
fornia in 1869 under the swamp land
act for lands covered by the lakes Kern
and Buena Vista. The Secretary says
in his letter: at appears that each Of
these lakes is a large body of water per
manent in character. The two have an
aggregate Of about "A miles. They are
capable of being nsvigated. and being
without interstate or foreign conneo'
ton, while not navigable waters of the
United States, they are clearly naviga
BILE waters of the State of California
Therefore, when the United States
issued patents for lands covered by such
waters it exceeded its powers. IT.
patents conveyed no title because it hat
none to convey and are absolutely nul
Iities Of no efficiency whatever. Th'
lakes are owned by ]. B. Haggin. thu
original purchaser from the State o
California, who now proposes to drair
the lakes for his own purposes and II
