A few weeks azo there was a great eicitcment among tne folks here, when it was rumored about that Wash Amy had a bear shut up in his den at Shade mountain, near Evendale. Many were the plans laid to capture Mr. Brcin. Osir town folks were greatly agitated, and the name bear sotnied from every tongue. Wild and romantic conversations were in dulged in by the people, until they became nearly exasperated in their own talk.Sev rral times about a dozen men met fn town, equipped with almost every sort of weapon ; but (heir leader only laughed at them and told them there was nothing in it, and so it Was dropped.

Puring a number of years pat, H 'nting don papers told tbe public of the financial misfortunes of Old Jimmy Walls," and severely condemned certain Huntingdon lawyers for having brought about his finan cial ruin.. Some davs ago a train of cars struck Mr. Walls aud so injured him that he died from the effects of the injury. A late paper from Huntingdon says : Somo years ago Mr. Walls erected a handsome monument to the men ory of his wife, and at tbe same time had one erected for him Aelf, having bis name and all but the time of his death inscribed thereon. The peo ple of this town and county remember bow tnn old man was "skinned" by the lawyers of this place, and, now that he is dead, his friends intend taking proceedings against his defrauders. On Sunday afternoon a number of bojs, andmen, were at the river shore in the vicinity of the canal sluice, south of town. Wiliiara Parker, a lad aged about 12 years, son of . S. Parker, was at the edga of the water, laving or washing his hmds in the river. James Reiser stood further np on the bank, and threw a stone that struck William Parker on the bark of the head with such force that the boy fe.l as if he had been killed. Hoses Pannebaker saw the boy fall forwtrd inU. the river, but did oaf know the cause of the fill. Noticing that he did not get up, he ran to the pros trate lad and lifted bin; out of the water. He was unconscious nearly ail that ttfter noon, but gradually came to, and is now partly restored to his usual health. Ij ad dition to the blow on the back of the bead the mark of a severe blow is seen on the forehead of the boy, which was cauied by the bead of the lad striking a etonetvlien he fell forward into the river. It was a nar row escape from death for the boy that was struck, and a narrow escape from a deed that would have been a dark shadow on the life of the boy that threw the stone. Tns decision of a court in India, " whst ! is a decision," is related, as follows, by Rev. j H. M. Scudder, D. D-, who was for many i ears a missionary in that far-off country : I " Four men, partners in business, bought I some cotton bales. That the rats miht ; not destroy the cotton they purchased a j cat. They agreed that each of the four should own a particular leg of the cat; and each adorned with beads and other orna- ments the leg thus apportioned to him. I Tbe cat, by an accident, injured one of its legs. The owner of that member wound around it a rag soaked in oil. The cat, going too near the hearth, set this rag on tire, and being in great pain rushed in among the Cotton bales. here she was ac customed to bunt rats. The cotton thereby took tire and wts burned up. It was a total loss. Tbe three other partners brought a suit to recover the value of the cotton, against the partner who owned this partic ular leg of the cat. The judge examined the case and decided tbns: l be leg that had tbe oiled rag on it was hurt ; the cat could not use that leg ; in fact, it held up that leg, and ran with the other three legs. The three unhurt legs, therefore, carried the tire to tbe cotton, and are alone culpa ble. The injured leg is not to hp blamed. The three partners who owned the three legs with which th? cat ran to tbe cotton will pay the whoie value of the b-les to the partner who was tbe proprietor of the in jured leg.'

A vert good story is told of the late Admiral Goldsborongh with re gard to the etiquette of visiting cards. He was a bluff old sea-dog, and hated sham and pretense. An airy young diplomat, a great man of society and fashion, called on the Admiral, and finding him out, left, his card, with the letters E. P. penciled on it The brave Bait was puzzled thereby, and when the young man accosted him on the street and asked, "Did you get my card, Admiral t" he shouted out "Yes I and what's the meaning of E. P. that you wrote on it t" "Oh, that means en personne, that I 'called in person.'" "It does, eh!" said the Admiral, and went off in a mood of disgusted meditation. In a few days he returned the call by sending his card around by a messenger, first writing S. B. N. in one corner. Again the two met. -"You received my card, did you ?" inquired the Admi rat " Yes, and what does S. B. N. mean !" asked the polite young man. ' Sent by a nigger !" thundered the Admiral -- .
