PUNK WENT THE WOLVES.

Calhoun, Ga December 24.-GeCrge
Marvin, farmer, living at the base OF
Cohutts Mountains, hal an adventure
with wolves the other night which he
will remember as long as he lives, for
it WAS by the merest good fortune that
he is alive to-day.
Marvin lives on one OF those isolated
mountain farms common IN Gllmer
and Fanin counties, and his nearest
neighbor is about six miles away. DE
bought two pigs, and put them in
pen near the house, and that night the
mountaineer and his family retired at
the usual hour. They were early
awakened by the squealing OF the pigs
in the pen, and Marvin got up and
rushed out to SEQ what was the matter.
As 10 approached the pen he observed
quite a commotion about it, and dis
crned what appeared to be a number
OF large black dogs in and around the
pen. He rushed to the pen AMI was
Immediately attacked by hall a dozen
or more wolves. He was wholly un-
prepared for such an encounter, and as
the bruses sprang at his breast, ne
| could do nothing but kuock them OF
with his fists, which he did success
fully for several moments.
Maryin's great presence OF mind
served him well at this JUNCTION. He
knew il would not do to stoop down IN
order to search for a club or any other
weapon, thus mourning the risk OF
being Immediately overpowered by tue
whole pack, but while beating the
wolves off with his fists he walked
slowly backward, feeling the ground
with his feet in the hope Of stumbling
upon an axe or some loose wagon
spokes. which he knew to be scattered
about the yard. He failed to ind any,
thing, however, that would be OF any
assistance to hiu, but soon stumbled
against the sils which inclosed an
open we'll. :.
A happy thought occurred to HIM
and, bracing himself beside the well,
he hung Inc uIst Woil 'H"s iooPeu "o
him into it, A splash and a howl told
| that he was rid of one enemy. but 'he
others were renewing the attack with
savage fury, and as they came at him
one after another, were dextsrousiy
Handed in the well. When the fight
was over Marvin was almost dead from
loss of blood, his clothing having been
torn into shreds, and numerous deep
cu,s made in his breast and arms by
the claws and teeth Of the animal.
Upon examination Of the well next
morning it was found to contain the
bodies Of five full-gl own wolves, the
the first seen in the immediate locality
for five years. In other remote noun
tain sections, no ever, wolves are quite
numerous, and their depredat'on'
caus considerable loss to the noun
