A inaieik was lately Tntit up L-styevii a, jS P;
V;uia bear and an Iowa buii to light for three
thousand doll.is. The perlbrmanc-j is thus de
scri'oed by the Auburn (California) herald;
On Saturday lastr a g and hear r.nd bull
fight was advertised to' come oif f t the above
named place- At tea o'clock "iu the nYorning
a crowd abut two thousand persi. ns hod as
sembled to witness the encounter between bru-
in and bis bull-ahipf A large amphitheatre
had been erected, with ample accommoda
tions lor the," spectators, .underneath .-which
tliey crowded In anxious expectancy to' wit
ness the rare entertainment. The sports yf
the dy commenced with a cock Ggtit; alter
which the bull, Chihuahua,-vas ushered into
tha ring. The bear, a full grown animal of
the grizzly species, was led from his cage teth
ered by a raw hide I.triat and a chain. Chihua
hua surveyed his antagonist, pawed the dirt
over his neck, and prepared to pilch into bru
in, who, not relishing such sport; made one
bound, freed l.imself Irom the thongs which
bound him, and commenced ascending the
scats on which sat the spectators. A scram
bling scene ensued which beggars descr.ption.
Bruin succeeded in attaining to the fourth
tier of seats, when he either fell through or
leaped to the ground, on the heads of the
dense mass below. One unfortunate gentle
man raised the canvass to cflect his escape
Bruin perceiving the open ng. made, darted
through, overturning the man in his piss ige,
and made for the deep cannon which runs by
the foot of the town. . In ascending the hill
he overtook a Mr. Courtney, of Mad Cannon,
ami with one stroke of his paw almost denu
ded him. Happily, however, he sustained no
other injury than the loss of his "unmention
ables." The gentleman who was upset in ma
king his escape through the canvass suffered
a severe contusion, and had his head gashed
to the skull from the centre of his forehead to
the conn.
Meanwhile, the rage of the bull having
reached boiling heat, with a bound and bellow,
dashed through the crowd, overturnrng all in
his way, and in the opposite direction from
bruin, "disappeared in the woods. The scene,
altogether, our informant assures us, was in
describable. The evening wound up with a
wrestling match for $100, in which a Mr. Sims
was the winner, mid the whole "topped off"
with a dog tight. . -
The elegant amusements of our friends of
Iowa II ill we le-jrn, add much to the life and
business of the place, and cause money to cir
culate freely.
The Scmmer h Ended In commenting up
on the eventful summer from which we just
emerged, the New Vork Mirror sjvs that "it
has been a hard aud a hot one. Fires, fail tires,
disease and death, have brought 1 .ssea
and mourning to thousands the calam
ity of s.hort crops aud high prices makes the
poor man look an.xiously to tiie coming winter-
Many who began the season in the ful
ness of health and beauty, have perished with
the early llowers, and hundreds who went
abroad decked in the gay colors of joy aud
hope are now robed m the sombre attire of
grief and mourning. Autumn has come to
many a heart, even in the spring-time of life,
and the earth has become to thousands of its
pilgrims literally "the valley of the shuduw of
death.' They who have passed through this
trying season unscathed by sickuoss and mis
fortune whom the De tth Angel has not even
brushed with his wiDgs, should make their
lives a hymn of thanksgiving to the.Inlinite
God who has dealt with them so gentle and so
graciously! Instead of looking on tiie daru
tide of the future, they should look up in
grateful confidence to the Reaper whose sick
le has left them to flourish a little longer in
the field of time, while thousands, as liiltof
health and promise as they, have been cut
tjywn and withered in an hour."

Dorr.LASs at Home On the oth inst., at
Springfield, the capital of Illinois, there was
a Democratic-meeting in th State Houseof
of Anti-Douglass Democrats, which was ad
dressed by ex-Senator Broese.Judge Trumbull
and Col. . Taylor, by whom Senator Douglass
was denounced in no measured terms. Sena
tor Breese proclaimed him a traitor to his con
stituents, and to tiie Union, lie said he could
find no milder term in which properly to char
acterize his con Inct. It seems that so far
from finding the repeal of the Missouri Com
promise a sure p itii to the Presdlency, Mr.
Douglass will rind aditliculty In maintaining his
position as a Senator.
Gov. Pollock. The Pittsburg Chronicle,
an Independent paper,-Euding to the election
of Judge Pollock, aays: 'IIe is represented as
a high-minded, honorable gentleman. In
private life beyond reproach. . He was a just
and able judge of the Court of Common Pleas.
Repeatedly elected to Congress by the vote
of Whigs and Democrats combined, and there
is no charge of his ever having proved unfaith

The Season. Autumn is fairly inaugura
ted, and the brown, autumnal feeling which
denotes its approach hot noon-times and the
demand for soda-water, have gone away to
gether. The sunshine streams slanting 1 iziiy
through the fleecy haze, which at early morn
ing wraps tle hills and 3-ellow-tinged forests
in its cold embrace. A dry leaf occisionry
flutters to the sidewalk, with a sad premoni
tion of the time when ali leaves shall have left.
Winter, with his snow-flakes and icicles, will
soon be along? already, indeed, is the Frost
King here, and in .a few days will bind inrfcy
fetters the deep river and the dancing rill.
XPCol-Reach Frazer, whose devotion to
his party formerly gave him the sobriquet of
the "War Hors'j of Democracy," made a
speech at Whig head quarters, in Lanclsfr,
in congratulation on the defeat of BIgler. We
congratulate Col. F. on his final separation
from a party which, he. aerved with fidelity,
until he found it too corrupt for.au : honest
man's adhesion. Berks Co. Prtt. : "

The "Kansas weekly Herald" ' 13 the titla pt
a newspaper all the way from the disputed ter
ritory. "It is a neatly printed heet, published
at Leavenworth, by Osbom & Adams. It is
the first paper established, in.that territory.
; -Thv -city of Leavenworth,' where the Her
ald ia'.published, is situated about 1 miles be
low Fort LeavenvTorth,is 'laid out' into streets,
sqnares, ice., 'and is growing with itrue-. West
ern rapidity and thrift. - It its destined to be
come a large and impbitant place of business.
It is not far from the new city of Kickapoo.'- '
, The following notices appear editorially 1'
' A large number of hands are. engaged in
cuttiug out the streets of this city !
. The population of this city is neaily as fol
lows : 99 men, 1 woman, and 0 babies. Total
100. Truly a flourishing and promising town.
Leavenworth. has been already talked of as
the future capital of Kansas. We trust it will
have something to fill a school house with be
fore the capital is built.
. Of the O'J male inhabitants of the city, 10
advertise themselves as "Attorneys and Coun
sellors at Law." . There is one physician, a
hotel, a steam saw mill, Beveral dry goods
stores, a book store, drug store, and other
rading establishments.
Tue Other Vessel. We learn from good
authority, that probably the unfortrnate pro
peller in contact with the Arctic was not the
-Cleopatra," as was at first supposed,, but a
French .Steamer from St. Peters, with supplies
for the fisheries, on her way back to France.
It has already been stated that one of the per
sons from on board the stranger reached the
Arctic, but that , being a Frenchman lie held
no conversation with any porson there. This
statement turns out ; incorrect. The cook of
the Arctic, it so happens, is a frenchman, or a
man who speaks that tongue.;- He had a short
talk with the stranger, who told him tho name
of the propeller, but this the cooK, unfortu
nately, is unable to remember. The cook dis
tinctly remembers the man telling him that
the propeller was a French vessel, that had
been sent to supply the fisheries with provis
ions, and was now on her way back to France.
This is all the conversation that passed.
Again at Large. J. S. Orr, alias Angel
Gabriel was last week released from j ill, alter
a two week's confinement, on bail. - Mr. Dan
iel Smith, the jailor, it is said restored to him
hi bugle and ensign. Before leaving the
premises, Orr asked, as a favor, that he might
sound his horn, as if to announce that he once
more breathed the outside air of freedom.
The request was complied with, when he blew
loud and prolonged, and stirring notes, attrac
ting to the iron grated windowsthe various in
mates of the institution, both white and black
male and female, who complimented him by
three hearty cheers. The recipient of this
equivocal houor lowed in acknowledgement of
it; and picking up his "traps, "hastened in the
three o:clock train of cars.on his way to Bal

A Terrible Tragedy. A letter from our
correspondent at Grueilt. Chenango county,
gives a) account of a thrilling tragedy recent
ly enacted in that vilHge. It appears that a
returned C iliforni m named Davis, had a tais-und.-rsLiuiling
with Lis wile, which led to a
sepir.ition. Dan's met his brother-in-law,
with whom his wife resided, and aftfr a brteT
conversation, they parted, when he drew a involve.-
and shot his relative in the back, kil
ling him instantly. He then proceeded in
search of his wife, whom he also shot and she
expired in a short time after the wretched
man turned the weapon upon his own breast
and slew himself. Xew York Herald.
Dzath of a Kentcckv Congressman. The
Louisville Journal of Saturday says : The Hon.
Presley Ewing, member of Congress froni the
T..ir.l District, died of cholera on Wednesday.
Oa Tuesday, he went from Bowling Greeu,
where the cholera has been prevailing some
time, to the M mmioth C ive, arrived there Un
der the influence of the disease, and died the
next morning. He was a wit, a scholar, a
politician, an orator, a man of genius,-and a
statesman. Though young, he had won a dis
tinguished position in Congress.
For Kaxsvs. The parties already sent out
by the New Vork Kansas Le igue, have amoun
te I altogether to about 600 or 700 persons, and
among them h ive been a number of families:
l.tOO or more are preparing to follow this
month, many of whom belong to the Anieric in
Settlement Company, whose leaders went
about three weeks since to choose a location,
occupy a large tract, and lay out a city. This
is a stock company, the shares of $5 each, en
titling the holder to a vote ; and a city lot.
The plans are matured for the immediate es
tablishment of all the institutions of our re
fined Eastern society in the new community.
