A Wait Story.
"Talking of wolves," said Black one even-
ing, " I can tell you a story that no other
man on the river can tell."
11 When I first came to' the cabin, there
was no clearing within thirty miles, arid the
only neighbor I had was Gerge B , who
died last year, up by the cedar hill, ten" miles
or so away. It was a little lonesome, and
yet I liked it for a year, and I saw George
three times during that twelvemonth. But
the next six months I never saw a man, and
I used to sit and look at myself in the still
water over the side of my canoe; and like it,
for it seemed as if I had company. But one
day in November I was tired out of being a
lorie, and I started off towards evening to go
up to George's. I crossed the river just here,
and went along up the edge of the water
swinging my rifle in my hand, whistling for
company's sake, for it made a pleasant echo
., m, . -. . .....
,n the wobds- T1,e n,Sh Was cool,sh
very clear, and there was a pleasant moon.
Just as I reached the Rock brook, close on
tjje sde 0f tne f heard a growl that

standing with his paws buried in the carcacss
of a deer, while his jaws were full 'of the flesh
But he was not eating,! for he had T seen. me,
arid seemed to bo discussing the comparitive
merits of hie meal before him,- and the possf
ble meal which I presented for him. He
was not any t)f your dog wolves, but a griz
zly rascal!, as large ris Leo yonder, with lar
ger hair and stouter legs. He snarled once
or twice more; and I was fool' enough toshow
fight If I had let him alone, he would have
been content with his feed; for they are cow
ardly animals, except when there; are droves
of lliem' orunJcssyu disturb their eating.

He planted his two paws, onmy breast, ,a,nd
the claws left marks that are . there yet
while he seized my shoulder, with his villiain-
ous jaws. ' . , .. .
Blackpaused to show us tlje,scar9 prj his
breast and arms, particularly , the, large j3car
wfiere the flesh was torn from the bone, on
liis shoulder. He continued : " ,
" I was. a little, faint when his teetfhWent
in: Jtjt was, unpleasant, and I hadHtimo io
think of a dozen other Ways o'f dyiniriVriy one
of which;I would' n'4ve' preferred ' tbinVtiad
a choice' been' possible. The Wolf apparently
did'nt like the hold he had, - for he tore out
his teeth, and tore out my coat, shirt, and
ffleshv too, and seized my fur cap;1 It "was
a lucky mistake for me. T'felt his wet lips
oh. my forehead, arid had just time to let go
thy hold of his 'throat and clutch' "my knive,
when he shook off the cap and made another
attempt to get a mouthful, but his throat, was
in no fix to swallow it if he got it,tfor my
krtifeblade was; working desperately across
.liis jugular, arid the point of it was' feeling
between the vertebral for his spinalmarrow.
He Was a dead wolf, and gave it up'like one
fairly 'whipped'.
T had bled considerably whenT rose, 'but I
wasn't weakened a particle. Tlie wHolehad
passed in less, than half a minute, and. I1 was
ready for the other two, that no'ty came at me
both .together. ;
I seized my rifle arid mot one With the bar
Tel across the nose and' floored him. As:he
picked1 himself tip, I seized him .by the- Hind
foot. If the first' wolf was scarred When I fell
on hiiri, this orid was more so. I shall
never forget the howl which escaped him as
I swung liim hi to the air and struck the oth
er a blow with the body of his comrade. The
other one, the first I had wounded, frightened
at the novel fight vanished in the woods, and
IwasleftAviththisonc in my hands. He seera
ed to let out his voice with tremendous force
as he went round my head twice. The cen
trifugal force, as they used to call it at school,
forced out its wind, but as I let him fly his
scream was fairly demonical.
He went a rod from the bank, and the howl
stopped only when he" reached the water. I
was faint and weak, now, and my visit "to
George was of course out of the question ; so
I seized my rifle, loaded it with difficulty as
I ranj and following the w;ater, I at length
saw him come up. IlestruclcTn for the'shore,
but seeing me, did. nbt dare to land. I teased
him so for two miles, arid e'ach time he. ap
proached the shore I showed riiyself, and he
kdpt off. I saw he was getting tired; but I
din't want to shoot him yet, and I; followed
him till he went over the rapids; dnd into-the
deep hole by the Haunted Rock. Here I had
to leave the river bank and so I Watched him

SPICING A HORSE.
Old Simon Trotwood was the proprietor of
the only livery stable in Splashtown. He
was deeply versed in Horseology, and profes

far one' of his anatomical horse-preparations
As the village was principally devoted to
manufacturing, and " factory bug's" are pro
verbially hard customers for horse-fleeh, old
Sim was in the habit of dependingon his own
judgment when calculating the bill rather than
the statements of the person who had used
one of his animiles.
It was curious to observe the movements
of old Sim, when a horse was returned to his
stable after a jaunt into one of the neighbor-1
mg towns.
Without heeding, or hearing e-
ven, a word that was said to him by the cus-
tomer who asked for his bill, Sim would walk
rapidly to the crow-bait, place his hands up
on its hoopy sides, and stand in a fit of ab-: mark of good education,
straction for full five minutes. Then, step- J Pay strict regard to the rules of gram

jokes upon him, and one warm day in June, Rum unci Politics,
when it was the topic of conversation at the T n - rr v j 1f
Jackson Hotel, a wag named Jack Harmon
, . , r
j proposed to try an experiment, by way of tes-
I ting old Sim's power of computing distances
in relerence to trie perlormances ot tns teams.
Jack accordingly dispatched a lad with a
note to Mr. Trotwood, requesting that a team
should be brought round to the hotel at two
o'clock, as he wished to drive to-New Boston,
about four miles distant-promising to return
r .i r
at. five in the afternoon.

A very respectable equine skeleton was
J r
brought to the door, and Jack ordered it to, That self-same evening Spangle had

AtsixP. M. the steed was brought into

the stable yard, and as much warm peper tea
was poured down his attenuated neck as was
necessary to put him into a reeking sweat.

round a neighboring square several times, at
the. top of his speed, and sent to the stable in
a profuse perspiration, with a request that
