ANECDOTES OF ; BEARS.
BEARS AND DEAR-11UNT1NG
'ln the first. settling of the New England
States, bears were quite numerous, and they
still exist in great abundance in the northern
parts of Maine; but we hear very little said of
tbem in the chronicles of the times. It would
seem that amusements of the chase, and hav
ing their attention so exclusively occupied by
more savage foe, the Indian, they must have
slaughtered the bear without deeming the ex
ploit worthy of any pai•tieular mention. It is
somewhat curious that the most interesting
anecdote we have left us, resulted from the
fact that the economic attempt was made to
break the animal to useful domestic purposes
—an idea that would never have occurred ex
cept to a worthy and natural progenitor of the
thrifty Yankee,
'lt seems that one Zebulon Stanhope, a
farmer residing near New London, trained a
couple of bears to plow and do other labors of
the field and road. On one occasion he started
'to town' with a sleigh-load of wheat, .but
some of the harness breaking, the farmer set
about reparing the damage, when one of the
bears seized him by the leg and sorely wound
ed it. The bears then simultaneously ran off,
leaving the farmer to reach his house alone;
which he did with difficulty after four hours'
labor. Two or three days were spent in use
less search, and bears and sled were given up
as lost; when, iipou the third day at noon, a
noise was heard in the road, and, to the as
tonishment of the Stanhopes, they beheld the
two bears,drawing the sled into the barn, and
instead of the wheat, four large bears and
three cubs. -The door was' suddenly closed,
and the strangers were shot with a long gun
thrust through the crevices of the building.
'Captain Wild, always remarkably attentive
to his guests, but for the moment absorbed in
tucking away iunumeraable pieces of broiled
venison under his capricious vest, having
'loaded up,' he chimed in' as follows: 'Your
character•of the bear is all very well; he is
not only the knowingest animal in the woods,
but he has a nice sense of honor, and will for
give au injury rather than take revenge on the
wrong person. Oh, you may doubt the truth
of what I say, but it is a fact nevertheless!—
You all know Moses and Aaron Giggin, twin
brothers, who looks so much alike that their
father never knew them apart except when
they were together. One day they were out
among the dewberry hills, hunting bear, when
Aaron chased an 'old ho' up what ho thought
was a ravine, but it turned out to be 'a wash,'
and instead of opening into the low lands, just
closed up with a chunk of a precipice sixty
feet high. The bear' couldn't climb up the
steep bank, so he made a 'book track,' and the
'twin' had to take to his heels to get out of the
way. Down 'the wash' the two ran, making
excellent time, but the bear had the heels, and
was about to give his enemy a hug, when the
unfortunate victim hollowed out, 'Oh, Moses,
if you have any love for your brother, put in,
and divide this fight!' Moses heard the oall,
and, in coming to the rescue, literally rolled
down the sides of the embankment; at the
same instant the bear came up with every
hair on end, and his ears crowded down close
to his head. First, ho made a feint at Aaron,
then a pass at Moses; but getting confused,
by not knowing them apart, he concluded he
would not take the responsibility of jumping on
the wrong man, and so he let 'em both off; and
that,' said the Captain, drainning off his tum
bler of claret and assuming a knowing look,
'is what I call proper self-respoot, and an evi•
denoe of gentlemanly consideration worthy of
all praise; and now,' concluded the speaker,
'let Jim Wiolter_tell us how his head got so
Jim Wicker was a comical-looking fellow,
with a very young face, but by reason of hav
ing no hair, ho looked very old from his eye
brows all the way round to the, back of his
neck: , lie was very sensitive about the defect,
and was somewhat celebrated, from a fight he
bad with a traveling agriculturist, who upon
being asked by Jim, 'What would cause his
hair to grow on his shining poll, was advised
to oover over the top of his head with guano,
and plant it down in crab grass.' But Jim
wouldn't quarrel with Captain Wild, for that
gentleman was not only the host of the Fairy
Queen, but also had the key of all 'the refresh
monts',Jo his possession; so without hesitation
he enlightened his auditory after this fashion:
'You see the liar always did keep rayther
scarce 'hout my soalp, and I was always rub
bin' in ono thing and another to fotch it out,
fur I was saran the roots wasn't dead, though
thar was little to be seen above the ground.—
I'd hoard of bar's-grease, and bought a gallon
in bottles; but I believe it was nothing but
hog's-lard apd mutton taller; so I thought I
would halo' the genuine article, and I got old
Dan to go out and kilt something for my
especial . benefit. Dan told me it was in th o
spring, and that the bar was In bad health
4inii out of season; but I believed ho was try
ing to quiz me, and wouldn't take no for an
answer➢ A short hunt fotched a critter at bay,
and Da ' k, by a shot in the vitals, 'saved the
varmint; but the bar was in a bad condition;
for he looked as seedy as an old Canada thistle,
and he had hardly ilo etfaugh in him to keep
his jints from squeaking, but what he did have
I got, and used; and strangers,' said Jim, look
ing sorrowfully round on the company, 'in two
days, what little har I had commenced fast
falling off, and in a week I was as bald as a
gun-barrel. Dan was right; the varmint was
a , shedding himself, and had nothin in him but
har shedding ile, and the consequence is, [can't
in the dark tell my head from a dry gourd, if
I depend on feelin'.'
'Bar meat,' said old Dan at the conclusion
of Wicker's story, 'is best, in course, in the
fall; in the spring the varmint is just out of
his nap, and the first thing he does is to get
clear of his old coat, so he eats ynrbs as makes !
the liar all fall off, so that in the fall he comes
out as black as a coal, and as shiny as glazed
powder. Cotch a bar. then,' when he has a
cornfield to hide, in, and his spar ribs tastes
like rostin' ears. Nothin' n bar loves more
than green corn, except young pig. I have
seen the varmint break off the ears, strip off
the husk, and eat the corn as handy asl could
do. A bar will sometimes gather up a pile of
ears, and carry them to an eating place, and
chew 'em up at his leisure. If he is a little
bar, he will break down the stalks to gather
them ; if he is a tall bar. he tears the ears off
without so much trouble. The fact is, bars
are knowing animals, and if they could. talk
would give us many ideas of the wood we don't
dreem of—' And in his abrupt way, he con
cluded : 'l've seen a bar climbing over Vir
ginny fence with an armful of rostin' ears,
and never tripping a step.'
This last remark called forth Uncle Tim,
who never allowed any one to 'see' more than
he did or could, and cordially asseiiting to all
that he heard, with an equivocal expression
that would throw a doubt over truth itself, he
related an incident that came under his person
al observattorb and was looked at with his own
eyes. think,' said he, 'twas two years ago
just after the crop was laid by, that I was out
a 'still huntin',' when I got down on 'little
Caney,' just back of Bill Shaddiok's pre-emp
tion, that 1 heer'd a terrible scrimmage, and
I crept'up, and looked over a fallen tree, and
what should I see but—but two 'old he's' a
fightiu' over a pumpkin and some roster' ears?
They stood up and came the scientific twain',
rigler, occasionally tucking each other aside .
of the head, and giving black eyes and bloody!'
noses ; then they clenched and had it rough
and tumble, worse nor any leetion fight - 1.044
aced down at 'dyers's. I tuck sides ov course
and gyrated round a-praying that the dttle
fellow would whip. Thar the two had. it,
round and round, and over and under, when
I cried out, 'Turn him over, little and
get his foot in your mouth.' " 'No you don't',
the fellow sung out.'
'Who sang out, Uncle Tim ?' inquired Cap
tain Wild, some of the boys at the same time
whistling. •
'The bar sung out,' said Uncle Tim, not the
least confused, at the same time assuming a
'ferocious look.' The bar, you see, didn't
say the words, but just cocked his ear, when
the little un' did get the walloper's fist be.
tweeu his grinders ; and slob a fuss ! the dirt
flew about from the extra licks, and I believe
they would ha' disappeared in a hole of their
own diggin', if I hadn't put in my say so, and
jus% tuck the big fellow in the gizzard with
old •llarkaway,' that had a good Bullet inside,
and four buck-shot chambered eatihug as peas
,
in a pod. The bars in the excitement didn't
hear the gun net. smell me ; the old un' thought
he'd got a severe dig in his breadbasket from
his antagonist, and fout the harder, but the
little un' felt him give up, and got a new hold
and struck the old amazin', then very deliber
ately tuck up the rostin' ears in his left arm,
and putting the pumpkin on his head, he
walked off, olomb over a high fence, and die
appeared in the swamp.'
'And that is a fact, is it ?' asked several
listeners, without conceali6 their incredu
lity.
said Uncle Tim, helping himself to
the contents of a stone jug near by, 'saran it's
a fact ; I've gqt the big bar skin at home, un
der my bed now; and I showed. Zack Taylor
the very next morning the place whar the bar
got over the finite ;in °wee it's a fact. I
A Torou Sri:qtr.—The Louisville Democrat
is responsible for the folloying:— , We• were
told this morning a rather tough story about
a field of wheat up in the country. The stalks
wore wedged so closely together that the
wonder was how they manged to grow at all..
The owner, just before cutting, was standing
on a stump, in the outer edge of his field look
ing over the vast expanse, when the wind blew
his hat on the
. top of the wheat. Ho wanted
hie hat of course, and to get it must needs go
into the field. He made an effort to get down
without breaking much, vhen he found to his
utter amazement, that the growth was so thick
and heavy he could crawl on the top of the
crop, with no more yielding beneath him than
if he were on a spring mattrass or a heavy
feather bed. And he crawled till ho got his
hat, and then back again—perhaps walked
bank; we are not certain on this point.'
