"l'l. give Bve dollar down Aod lear It In mj wilt, Jf anybody will ibow me tbe man That em ttrnck old Bill " 8uob was tbe melody we beard a tallow (banting, as be lssud Irom tbe merchant tailor alion ol A. P. Waters, with a bran new harness. Our attention was shortly after attracted In tbe same direction by the appearance of another Individual, who race u beaming with charity and benevo lnce, with a suit or the I test out adorning his shapely pereoq, and bis soul found ut leriogfhusly: 'Lt ihe wide e-orld wag as it will, We'll be gey end happy, gay and bapyy, We'll be gey and bappy illil." Aod again we looked, and, lo, there cam forth yet another form dreaeed In shinlrg apparel, bis Isoe was long aod uomely. there was a aanctifled sort of demeanor In lb eery bearing aod walk of tbe gentleman, as if to say toush me not, I am a bulier than thou. From his parted lips cam meteors of tbal old auJ swet melody, sometimes sang In Ihe chntclies: 'A mansion iu heaven I see, Aad a light In tba window for thee." From all of which we came te the coo olusion that If a man would be super 'alive; ly bappy, be must go to Waters and order a a suit of clothe.

I. an atmday a grntleman living near Madison station, on the Memphis aad Lit tle Ruck road, left hi" borne to go to tbe village. ' lie had not proceeded more then two hundred yards, mouuinll oo a linen lO'Odantol Balaam's an, when he en countered a grea', greasy black bear. Tbe bear was astonished, and without taklog time to think, hurried up a eoaly-bark hicks oty and seated bimselt very comfortably on a limb, thirty or forty feet from the ground. The farmer was completely puzzled. If he rode back to the bouse to get his gun tbe bear would surely eseap. Uu therefore tied the mule, a long eared melancbolv mule, forty or titty year of sge, to tbe body of the .tree. Tbe mule we bridle wise, but 110 bridle would hold hiiu, and a strong leathern Cable was kept coild au ut bis neck. Witb this be was faetsned lo a tree. The farmer started to ihe boose, and Bruin divloiag his plan deemed it proper togelbway. He doubtles suspected that a gao was eomiog. lie cam slowly down, tearing lb bark Irom Ibe body olth tree It rattled about the sleepy mole' bead wbo had ool yet seen ibe bear, and dream ed uu! of Ibe proximity of the ucly tmael.-- Tbe bear desteuoed slowly till new wiiu In live feet el Ibe mnle'a great ugly lead Then It wa that lb siupi l, inuoceui, un suspecting mule looked tip. He had i.ev.r seen a bear before. Hi knees smote one uolnar. H grew pale lo tl.e fc. His yprjected trout bi head the f.irinr said balfa foot. Hi tail wa slowly lut.d. Ibe hairs tuined awry, till it stoi.d at an augl of forty-Bee degrees above bis spinal column, and then II wa that tbe mule 'boved a sigh aud ttnole a smile." It was an unearthly sound, the farintr, Ifty yards away, aaya it shook lb ground wbere he stood walebiog lb progrw of eveuie. Tbe bear suddeoly twitted itself about aod as canded to it pereb. Tbe mule swoouingly fell at Ibe bate of Ibe tree. He lay still and apparently lifeless for a time, wbea Bruin again attempted la descend; but tbe leui fled mule bowled aodcoared even mere ter ribly and piteoosly when tbe bark begau lo tall, and 1 frantically that Bruin hesitated, and Dually, In slupeled amazement, tat upon tbe limb upon which be first retted. Tbe farmer came with bis rifle, aod a bullet toon slopped the pulse beat ot Ibe bear. It fell heavily beside tbe mule, and strange to tell, as told lo us, Ibe mule and bear died side by side Ibe on of a mortal wound, toe otuer 01 mortal terror. The bear wa still black a Erebus; the mule' fee was already while witb ao indescribable agony of mortal lear.
