Truth stranger than Fiction.

ScARBoRo, Dec. 1l.-Edltor Of The
1Egis: Your Dublin correspondent, when
reporting Mr.. Reese's shot at wild tur-
KEYS, states that there were other tales
of his proves, proving that truth is stranger
than fiction. | remeIh Der two in particular
that have been told me. The first was his
capture of a wild turkey gobbler. He found
where turkeys were in the habit of feeding,
aud there being brush pile near by, he spread
corn on top and craWled underneath to await
developments. At last large gobhler lit on
the brush and Mr.. Reese worked his hand up
and caught him by the feet: The gobbler did
not intend to he caught and spread his wings
to fly away Before the hunter knew it, he
was being carried away, brush and all. On
and on the gobhler flew, crossed the Susaue-
hanna, with his queer load, and lit on "Wild-
cat Rock" on the opposite shore.
The other was his capture OF deer. AS in
the case of the wild turkey mentioned by ".
I. L." he was returning from a hunt, with
plenty of powder but no bullets, when he sight
ed deer. He loaded his rifle with peach
seed and fired, but the shot did not appear to
take effect, and the deer was soon lost in the
forest. Years after this he noticed a deer
standing in a clump OF trees. He shot at it,
and was surprised to see a tree fall at the
same time. Upon going nearer he found the
tree had grown out of the deer's head. The
peach stone he shot years before had lodged
there and had grown into this tree, now COW
cred with ripe peaches. s. II. w.

The BEL AIR SToREs.-A visit to the stores
in Bel Air at this time is not calculated to i'm
press one with the idea that times are particu-
larly hard. The merchants have piled their
counters as high as ever with Christmas goods
and their clerks are just as busy as they can
be waiting or the throngs of buyers. Coming
down the street from the station, the eye is
first arrested by the handsome window dis
play of Mr.. James e. Young. This is very
pretty, but tits only an index to the many useful
and ornamental things to be found within.
There is to be found every thing necessary for
the Christmas tree and the Christmas cake.
large table is piled with toys ranging in
price from one cent up. There are nuts and
candies that make the children's mouths wat
er with anticipation.
Close by is the jewelry store Of Mr.. Jacob
Schapiro, who, though only resident of Bel
Air for few years, has been quite successful,
| as his goods are always just as he represents
them and are sold at the lowest living profit
Passing to the store Of Mr.. John
B. llama we find that, while he does
not deal in candies and groceries, he has
furnished food for the mind in large assort-
ment of Christmas books for the children, and
some that may prove entertaining reading for
grown people as well. His stock OF pictures,
dry-goods and notions, furnishes large as
sortment to select from, and his wares are
| seasonable and cheap.
Just before reaching The Kgis, Office on OPP
posite sides of Main street, are the stores Of
Messrs. Harry Bateman q CO. and J. G. Rouse
| & Son. Mr.. Bateman has a well-deseryed
reputation for keeping fine groceries and,
| from the looks Of his stock, he is evidently
| determined to sustain that reputation.
Rouse's store is SO well known as to need but
little comment. They have large line of sea-
sonable goods, both on the grocery aud dry
goods sides, and quote very low prices
| On the road back it will pay one well to turn
at the well-known and old-reliable Bel Air
Drug Store and inspect the stock OF our half
price merchants, Cohen & Levy. They have a
large stock Of dry-goods and clothing and the
| only wonder is, not that they sell SO many
goods, but how they can sell them SO cheap.

To SELL THE CANAL.-Attorney General
John P. Poe filed on last Friday bill in the
Circuit Court for Hartford county for sale of
the Susquehanna and Tide Water Canal. and
also for a receivert to take charge Of the affairs
of the company until sale can be made.
The bill is filed in the name OF the State OF

Reading Railroad Company, which has 999
years lease of the canal, surrendered it last
