The following (hrilling narrative of a deer huni is extracieci from n most interesling and valuable work, liie production of a Brilifih offi¬ cer, who was ecveral years staiioned ot one 01 the posi.'i of tiie liiidson Bay Company. It nar¬ rates an adventure in the solitude ofthe interior fiorili-ive.<;ieni section of North America, which Ifcd 10 nil encounter with a grissly bear. It is 08 graphic as it is exciting; and portion's of it make one's blood run cold. The last scene of peri! 11 delciiiatea is abaoluiejy fearfully wild. Taken aa a whole, the narrative is one of the most entertaining sketches we ever read. We deem it unnecessary to assure tbe goneral read¬ er lhat he will find in it a rich treat. Life, in the wilda of the unexplored weat, is alwoys attended by incidents, that startle thoso who aro not familliar with it ; and ia full ofthe wild and the wonderiul: There are eix well defined species of deer in North America, in ita lemperato and frigid zonea. More than iwo speciea are rarely found inhabiting the samo district, and the geographi¬ cal distribution of thoso animals is somewhat singular, the reindeer, moose, elk nnd common deer, occupying a succeasion of zones from north to aouth,but overlapping each other. There are g two other species—the black taila, and the lon outlines ofthe hills for «ome noble .mansion or lordly lower. It is just in such BituationB that the tallow deer dclighte to dwell, ond theee ara the favoriie haunts of its near fonginer, the lonst- tail. I had aBcariained ihia from the people at the post, find the fact that freah veniaon formed our Btaple and daily food, waa proof aufficient that some Bpeciea of deer was to bo found in the neighborhood. I wm not long, therefore, after niy arrivah in puuing myself in irain for a hunt. Unfortunately, the.genElemen of my company were too buey to go along with me ; bo also wero the numerons engages ; and I eet out tak¬ ing only my servant, a bois bntle, or ball breed, who happened, however, to be 0 good guide for such ar^ expedition, os well oe a firat rote hunler. Seitine out, we kept down the stream for aome distance, walking along ita bank. We aaw numerous deer tracka in the niud, whore the animals had gone 10 and from the water.— These trackh were almost fresh, and many of them, as my servant averred, must have been made tho previoua night by the animala coming to drink—a common habit with them, especial¬ ly in hot weather. Bul, atrange 10 aay, we walked a mile or more withoui getting a glimpse ol a single deer or any aon of animal. I was becoming discouraged, when my man proposed that wc should Leave the siream, and proceed back among the hills. The deer, he believed, n-ould be found there. This waa reaolved upon; and wc accordingly Biruck out for the high ground. We aoon clim¬ bed up from the river bottom, and threaded uur way amidst tho fragrant shrubberies ot amolan- chiera and wild rosea, cautiously scrutinizing every new viata that opened before us. We had not gone far before we caught aight of aeveral deer; wo could also hearihera al intervals, be¬ hind tho copses that aurrounded ua, the malea uitering a strango whistling sound, similar to lhat produced by blowing into thebarrelof a gun, while this was occasionally replied toby the goal-like bleat of lho femalea. Strange to say, however, thcy were all very shy, and not¬ withstanding much cautioua crouching and creeping nmong ihe bushes, wc wandered about for nearly two-thirds of the day without geiting 0 shot at any of them. What had made them go wary, we could not at the time tell, but we /earned afterwards, that alarge party of Fiat- head Indians had gone over theground onlya fow daya before, aud had put thc deer ihrough a three days' chase' from which they bad not yet recovered. Indeed wo sow Indian "sign" all along the route, and atono place came upon the heod and borns of a fine buck, which, from some fancy or other ol the hunter, had been left auspended fromihe branch of a tree, and had - ...,-^v^, ..^t^.. i*..-.ui thus escaped being stripped by the wolves.

In longitude as far eaat oa tho Missiasippi they are rarely aeen ; but as you travel westward, oither -approaching the Rocky Mountains, or beyond these to thc shores ofthe Pacific, they are tho common doer of theso countries. The black-tailed kind {.Cer. rus macrofis) ismore aouthern in its range. It is found in the Calilornjaa, ond the valleys of the Rocky Mountaina, as far south oa Texas ; while tu the north, it is met wiih in Oregon, and on the eastern eide of the Rocky Mountains, ca high as the fifiy-fourih parellel. Tha long-lail- ed apt'ties (C. Icucurtis) is the most common deer of Oregon and the Columbia River, and its range alao extenda enst of the Rocky Moun¬ tains, though not so far aa tho longitude ot the Mississippi. These two species are often con¬ founded wiih each other, though in many re- jpects they arc totally unlike. Indeed, there ore IWO varieties oftho former, both having the black tails and long ears which distinguish them from other animala of tho deer kind. From the great length of their cara, they are called mule- deer by man} huniers ; but black-tails is tha name most commonly used, from the circum¬ stance that the hair npon their tail-tips is of a deep jetty blackness, and very conspicuous.— The black-tails are larger than the long-tails, . —.„„. ..^u» lii^ luijy-iaiia, cico lor a moment thatwe had go their legs shorter, and their bodies altogether of proximity wiih one of tbe long tails a stouter build.

In running, they bound with all Iheir feet raised ot once ; while these ot tho long-iailed species run more like the common fallow deer—by trotting a tew atepa, ond then to thia species our deecription will now be con¬ fined, as in connection with it, the adventure wo are about 10 relate befel ua. Tho long-tailed deer is ono oi iho gmallsstof [he deer kind. I'.a weight rarely exceed* 100 pounde. It resembles in form and babita the common (ollywdeer, thc chief distinction bein obJBci, Thia appendage JS often found to men aure eighteen inches in lenglh ! While run- ning it ie held erect, nnd kept conaianily awitch- ing from sido tu nido, so as to produce o aingu¬ lar and somewhat ludicrous effect upon the mind ofthe spectator. Ita gait ia also peculiar. It first takes two ambling stepa, that resemble a. trot, after theso it makes a long bound, which carries tt about twice lho distance of the stepB, and then it trots Ogain. No matter how cloaolj puraued, it never alters this mode of progees sion. Liko lho fallow deer, it produces fawns, which are brought forth in the epnug, mi and change their color lo thatof lho deer itself th in the first winter. Aboutthe month of_ No* uomber they gather intu herds, and remain to¬ gether until April, when they separate, tho fe- aight of this irophy, my companion appeared to br ¦ '--- - " 10 in ecstacies. Icould not understand what there was in a worthless set of antlers to pro¬ duce auch joyful emotion J butaa Blue Dick— such was the sobriquet oi my servant—was not much given lo idle exhibitions of feeling, I knew there must be something in it. " Now, master," said he, addreasing me, "if I had something else, I could promise you a ehol al lhe long mils, shy as lhey nre." - «».*.*,««« aiu " Something else !

So saying, giving one bound, and trotting aa beiore. It is ho took up the anllera and desired mo to follow 10 thia species our deecription will nnw hPi ertr,. t.-— w- , , . .- dcr." Dick pointed to a tall, herbaceous plant that yrow near the edge of the swamp. Its stem was fully eight feet in height, wuh large lobed leaves, and a wide-spreading urahel of preuy white flowers, I knew the plant well.— It was that whicb is known in some places as masicrwort, but moro commonly by the name of cow-paranep. Its botanical name is Heracte- um lanatum. I knew that its roots posaeesed stimulant and carminative properties, but that lhe plant hod anyihing to do wiih deer-hunting, I was ignorant. Dick, however, was betier ac¬ quainted with Ita uses in that reapect, and hia hunter craft eoon manifeated itself. Drawing bis knife from its eheaih, he cut one of the joints from the stem of tho heracleum about aix inchea in length. This he commenced fashion¬ ing somewhat after ihe manner of a penny trumpet. In a few mmutes he had whittled i^ to the proper form and dimensions, after which he put up his knife, and applying the pipe to hi° lips, blew into it, Tho aound produced so ex' actiy resembled that which I had already heard to proceed from the deer, thai I was tlartled by it. Not hnving followed his manceuvrea, I fon- cicd for a. moment that we had got inio close wilh one of tbe long taila. My com- punion laughed, us ho pointed triumphantly to his new made " coll."

We had gone only a few hundred pocea furti.er, when (be hollow whistle of a buck sounded in our ears. "Now," muttered Dick, " we have him.— Squat down, maeter, unJer the bush—so. bronches of the wild rose treo.

I waa on my way -• . «ua on m] across the Rocky Mountains to Fort Vancouver, when circumstances rendered it necessary that I Bhouin Slop for Bome days at *a amaU trading post on one of tho branches of lho Columbia. I waa, in fact, detained wailing for a party of fur traders wilh whom I was lo travel, and who ro. quired some lime to get their packs in teadi. ness. Thc trading post was a small place with miaerable accommodations, having acarcely joom enough in its two or three wretched log cabina to lodge half the company that happened at the lirae to claim its hoapimlity. As my bus¬ iness waa eimply to wjit tor my iravelliog com¬ panions, I was of course ennuyed almost to death in such a place. 1'hero waa nothing to be aeen around but a pack of beaver, otter, mink, fox, and bear skius ; and noihing to be heard but the inceeaam chattering of Canadian voya- geurs, in their mixed jargon of French, English, and Indian. To make matters atill more un¬ pleasant, thero wos noihing to eai, aod nothing lo drink but the clear water of the little moun¬ tain stream upon which the fort was built. The surrounding country, however, was beau¬ tiful; andthe lovely landscape that on every side met the eye, almost compeneatcd for the diacomloriB of the poat. The surface of the country was what is termed rolling—gentle un¬ dulations here and there rising in"a dome-shap¬ ed hilla of low elevation. Theae wore crowned with copaea of shrubby treea. principally ofthe wild filbert or hazel, [corylus,} with several species of roso and raspberry, [rehus,} and uill uncertain of the character of hia enemy; sdi- aelvos. Every one was buay with hia own al fairs.andtooknoheodofoor raanceuvers. Our chiefdifficulty lay in procnring a boat, but for the conaideration ofa few loads of powder, wo al length borrowed an old canoe, that belonged to one ofthe Flathead Indians—a sort of hanger on oftho poat. This craft was simply a log of cotton vrood,iPopulu$ candieana,) rudely hol¬ lowed ont by means o( an axe, and slightly rounded at tho ends to produce the canoe shape. It was the speciea of water craft known.throu£h- out Western America as a "dug out,*' a phrase wh!ch_ explains itsalf. It waa buth old and rickety, but after a short inapeciion, Blue Dick declared it would do "fast rate." Our next move was to prepare our torch- For this we had to make an excursion to tho neighboring hills, where we found the very ma¬ terial we wanted—the dry knots of the pitch pine tree, (Pinus rigirfa.) Alarge segment of | birch bark was thon aought for and obtained, and our implementa were completed. At twi-| iight all was ready, and stepping into our dug out, we paddled ailenily down stream. Aa eoon aa we had got out of the neighborhood of lho post, we lighted our torch. This was placed in a large frying pan out upon I he bow, and was in reality rather a fire of pine knots ihan a torch. It blazed up brightly, throwing a glare over the wbole surface of the atream, and reflecting, in red lighl every object upon bom banka. We, on the ..other hand, were completely hidden from view by meana of the birch bark screen, which stood up between ua and tbe torch. Aa soon as we were fairly undor way, I yeil¬ ded up the paddle to Dick, who now asaigned to himseU the double nffice ofguiding the dug¬ out, and keeping the torch trimmed. I was to look to tbe shooting; so placing my trusty rifle acroBs my thighs, I sat alternately scanning both banks as we glided along. 1 shall never lorget the romantic effect which was produced upon my mind, during that wild excursion. The scenery of the river upon which we had launched our craft, was at all times a of picture- eaque character: under the blaze of lhe pine wood—its trees and rocks tinted with a vermil- iion hue, while the rippling flood below ran like molten gold—the eflect was heightoned to a degree ofeuhliraity'which couid not have failed to impress the dullest imtjginalion. It waa the auiumn season, too, and the foliage, which had not yet commenced falling, had aaaumed thoae rich, varied tinta, so cbaracteristic of the Amer¬ ican syZra—various hues of green and golden, andyellow, and deep red. wore exhibited upon tbc luxuriant frondago that lined the banks of the atream, and here and there drooped, like embroidered curtains, down tothe water's edge. '¦ was Q scene of that wild beauty, thot pictur- templation of ita Creator "Yonder!" muttered a voice that roused me from my reverie. It was Dick who apoko, and in the dark shadow ol the birch bark I Qould eee ono of hia arms extended, and pointing to iho right bank. My eyee followed the direction in¬ dicated : they aoon rested upon two small objects that from tbe darker background of the foliage appeared bright and luminous. Theao objects were round, and close to each other ; and at a imal, reflecting the Ught ofthe torch. My com¬ panion whispered me that they were the eyes ofa deer. I took aight with my rifie, aiming as nearly aa I could midway between tho lu piece cracked Uko a whip. Tho report was not loud enough to drown the noiaes that camo back frora the shore. There waa a rustling of leoves, followed by a plunge, as of somebody falling in the water. Dick turned tho head of the dug¬ out, and paddled her up to the bank. The torch „ „.,^....j, ..- uj^ iuoDi.cmj uuoau Ui US, and our eyes were gratified at the sight of a fine buck, that had fallen ilead inlo the river. He was about being drawn into the eddy ofthe cur¬ rent, but Dick prevented thia, and eeiuing hira by the antlers, soon deposited him safely in the bottom ofthe dug-out. Our craft waa once more headed down the itream, and we scrutinized erery winding of tho banks m aeaach of anoiher pair of gleaming •yei. In Iosa than halfan hour theso oppaared. ond we succeeded in killing a second long-tail—- a doe—and dragged her also inio the boat.— Shortly after, a third waa knocked over, which was foond standing out in ihe river upon a small point of sand. Thia proved to be a young spite buck, hia horna not bavin.,' yet branched offinto anilers. About aquarterof a mile further down a fourth deer was shot at, and missed, the dug¬ out having grazed suddenly aginst a rock juat tta I was pulling triggsr, ihua rendering my aim unsteady. I neod hardly aay that this aport was extreme¬ ly exciting; ond we bad got many milea from the po9t, without thinking either of the distance or the fact th^t wa should bu under the diaa¬ greeable necessity of paddling the old Flat¬ head's canoe every in::h of the way back again. Down siream it was all plain aailing; and Dick's duly waa light enough as it consiated merely in keeping the dug-out head foremoat in the raid- die ofthe river. The current ran at the rate of ihree milea an hour, and therefore drifted- us along with sufficient rapidity. Tho firat thing that suggested a return (o eith¬ er of us, waa tbe fact that the pine-knots had run out; Dick had just plied the lost of tham in tho irying-pan- At this moment, a noise soun¬ ded in our ears that caused us some feelings ol alarm; it was tho noiao of falling water. It was nul new to ua, for, since leaving the poet, wo had paaaed the moutba of several amall streams, that debouched into the one upon which we were, in moat cases over a jumble of rocks, thus forming a series of noisy rapids. But that which we now heard was directly ahead of ua, and mu::r, thought we, bo a rapid ur fail of the airenm irself; moreover, it appeared louder than any we hnd hiiherto paaaed. Wo losl but iittle limo in conjectures. Thc first impulse of my companion, upon catching tho sound, was to atop tho progress ol (hc dug¬ out, which in a few Beconds ho aucceded in do¬ ing ; bul by thia time by our torch wosehowa to us that ihere was a aharp turning in the river, -,.--. ..- .-,. ..w.uu jiaucu, lurown witha long reach of amooth water below. The lack upon its fianka, while its full, lorge eye cascade, therefore, could not be in our stream, glanced overthe opening, as if searching for but in some tributary that loll inlo it near the eonte object. At this moment Dick applied the bend- On seeing this, Dick turned his paddle, and permitted tho dug-out once more ti float wilh Uie current. The noxt moraent we passed the moulh of a good-sized creek, whose wattra, havingjust leapod a fall of aeveral feet, ran into the river, covered with white froth and bubbles. We could see the fall at a little-distance, through the branches and treea ; and as we swept on, its horns backward and forward, in imitation of « buck moving his hoad, in a threatening manner. The airangor now perceived what appeared to him the branching horns ol a rival, hearing, at the aame time, the well known challenge.— Thia waa not to be borne, rising erect on all . ..^vo , a...^ aa we ewepi on, us foura, with his brow antler set forward. At the foaming sheet reflectsd the Hght of our torch liatance of twenty paces or so, he halted, aa if { like ahining metal. Ilill nn^ni-ta;" "f <i"- "^ ' *" ^^ We had Bcurcely possod this point, when my aitention was attracted by a pair of fiery orbs that glistened out of some low buahee upon the left bank of the rivar, I saw that lhey were the eyea of an animal, but whet kind of an animal I could not guesa. I know thay were not the eyes of a deer. Their peculiar scintillation, their ieaaer size, tho wide space between them—all convinced me lhat they wore not deer's eyes. Moreover, they moved at times, aa if tha head of tha animal fras carried abont in irregular cir¬ cles. This is never the case with the eyes of the deer, which either pass hurriedly fiom one point to point, or remoin wifh a fixed and atead¬ faat gaze. I knew, therefore, it was no deer ; but no motter what; it waa some wild creature, and all are alike the game of the prairie hunter. I took aim, and pulled trigger. While doing so, I heard ihe voice of my companion warning mo, aa I thought, not to fire. I wondered at this admonition, but it waa then too Iste to heed it, but it had been uttered almosi simultaneoualy with the report ofmy rifle. I first looked te the bank, to witneaa the effect ofmy shot. To my great surprise tfao eyes were still there, gleaming from tho bushea as brightly aa ever I Had I missed my aim ? It ia true, tbo voice of my companion had disconcerted me ; but I aiill believe that my buHel muat hava sped truly, as it had been delivered with a good aim. As I turned to Dick for an oatplanation, a iiew sound fell upon my eara that explained all, at lhe same time causing me no slight feeling of alarm. It was a sound not unlike that uttered by terrified swine, but still louder and more threatening. I knew it well—I knew it waa the It 1 anon of the grizzly-bear. Ofall American animals, the grizzly-bear is the most to be dreaded. Armed or unarmed, man is no match for him, and even the courage- oua hunter of theao parts ahuns the encounter. This was why my companion had admonished me not to fire. I thought I had miased—it was notso. My bullet had hit and stung the fierce brute to madneaa;' and a qufck cracking among^ the bushes was immediaiely foUowed by B heavy plunge; tho bear wasin the water. , [¦ " Good hBa«Mi he's aftwos!" cried Dick but that halt was fatal to him, for by Dick's u.- rection I had made ready my rifle, ond toking aight at his breast, I pulled trigger. The result was ag my companion had predicted, nnd the buck was rubbed out. After skinning our game, and har.ging the meat out of the reach of the harking wolvea, we proceeded aa before ; and soon after anoiher buck waa slain in a manner very aimilar to that described. This ended our day's hunt, os it waa lalo before Dick had bethought him of thc do- coy ; and taking the boat part of both ihe long- tails upon our shoulders, wo trudged homoward to lho post. Part of our way, as we returned lay along the Btream, and we aaw several deer approaching tho water, but, cumbered as we wore, we failed m getting a ehoi. An idoa, however, was sug¬ geaied to my companion that promised iia plenty of sport and venaion for the next hunt, which woa to lake place by night. This idea ho com- municBied tome for my approval. I readily gavemyconBent, aalsaw in the proposal the cbancei for enjoying, o very rare spOrl. That sport waa to be a fire hunt; but not ob usualiy practised among backwoodamen, by carrying t torch through the woods. Our torch was to float upon tho water, while wo wore anogly •asted beaide it; in other worda, wo would car- ry our torch in a canoe, and, floating down ¦tream, would ahoot ihe deer that happened to be upon the banks, drinking, or cooling iheir hoofs in the waler. I had heard ot the plan, but had never practiaed it, although I waa deail roua of 80 doing. Dick had often killed deer in this way, and therefore knew all eboui it. I was agreed, then, tbat upon the following nigh. we ahould try the experiment. During the next day,-Dick and I proceeded in our preperations without saying anything to ony one- It was our design to keep our night bushea 01 the juneberry. [amelanchier 1 with f^^ °''''' ^^ was our design to keep our nigh theircluaiera of purplish red fruit.

I in accents of alarm, at the'same time propelling I the dug-out with all hia.migbt- . It proved true enough that the bear was after us, and the very first plunge had brought his nose almost up to the side ofthe canoe. Howover, a few weU di¬ rected strokeaofthe paddle set us in quick mo¬ tion, aad we were soon gliding rapidly down atream, followed by the enraged animal, that every now and then uttered one of his fierce snorts. Wbat rendered oor situation a terrible one WBS, that we conld not now see tho bear, nor toll bow far he might be from ua. All to the rear ofthe canoe waa of a pitchy darkness, in conse¬ quenco of the screen of birch bark. No object could be diatinguished in that direction, and it was only by hearing him tbat we could tell he waa fltiU some yarda oS". The snorta, however, were more or less distinct, a? heord among the varying roar of the waterfall; and sometimea they seemed aa if the enout from which ihey proceeded wsa ctoae tip to ooratern. We knew lhat ifhe once laid hia paw upon the canoe, we should either be sunk or compelled to leap out ond awim for it. We knew, moreover, that BDch an event would be certain death to ono of ua at leas*. I need hardly affirm that my com¬ panion uaed hia paddle with oil the energy of despair. I asaiaied him as much as wua in my power with the butt end of my gun, which was empty—on account of the hurry and darkness I bad not attempted to reload it. Wc had ahot down atream for a hundred yards or BO, ond were about congratulating ourselves on thc prospect of an eacape from the bear, when a new object of dread presented itself to our terrified imaginationa. This object wos the sound of falling water—bat not aa before, com¬ ing from some tributary aiream. No. It woa a fall of the river upon which we were floating; and evidently only a very ahorl disiance below ua! Wo were, in fact, wiihin one hundred yarda of it. Our excitement in consequence of being pursued by the bear, as well aa the fact lhat the sough of the cascade nbove still filled our ears, had prevented us from perceiving this now danger until we had approached it. A shout of terror ond warning from my com¬ panion seemed the echo of one I bad myself ut¬ tered. Both of ua understood tho peril of our situation, and both, without speaking another word, set about attempting to atop the boat. We paddled with aU our atrength—he with the oar, while 1 used the flat butt ofmy rifle. Wo had aucceeded in bringing her to a aort of equi¬ librium, and were in hopes of being oble to force her toward the bank, when all at onco we heard 0 heavy object strike against the stern. At the aame moment tho bow roae up into the air, and a number of burning pino knots fell back into the bottom of the canoo. They still continued to blaze, and their light now falling towards the srern, ahowed us a fearful object. Tbe bear had seized hold of tbe dug-out, and his fierce head and long curving claws wero visible over the edge. Altbough the little craft danced about upon tho water, and was likely to be turned keel upward, the animal showed no intention of re¬ laxing its hold; but on tho contrary, seemed every moment mounting into the conoe. Our peril woa now extreme. We knew it, andthe knowledge half paralyzed us. Both of us bad started up, and forsome moments half crouched, uncertain how to act.' Should wo uso the paddles, and get the canoe nahoro, it would only be to throw ourselves mto tbe jaws of tho bear. On tlio otbor hand, wo could not remain as we were, for io a few seconds we should be drifted over the falls ; and how high these were we knew not. We had never heard of them ; they might be fifty feet—thoy might bo a bun¬ dred. High enough they were, no doubt, to pre cipitate us into eternily. Tho prospect was ap¬ palling, and our thoughta ran rapidly. Quick aciion waa required. Icould think of no other than to lean starn-ward, and airikc at the be.ir with my clubbed rifle. At tho same timo, I colled upon my companion to paddle lu ihc ahore. Wo preferred, under all circumatancea, risking the chances of a laud-encounterwith our grizzly antagonist. I had succeeded in keeping the bear out of tbc eanoo by several well planted blowa on ihe'tnuut and Dick was equally successful in forcing the dug-oui nearer to the bank when a sharp crack reached my ears followed by o terriffc cry from my companion, Iglanced auddenly round, to as¬ certain the cause of theao demonstrations. Dick held in bia hands a short round stick, which I recogniaed as the shaft ol the paddle. The blade had snapped oJT, and was floating away on tbe surface. We were now helpless. The manege of the canoe wasno longer possible. Over the falla ahe muat go !—Wo ibought of leaping out, but it was too late. We wero almost upon tho edge and lhe black current lhat bore our craft along', would bava carried our bodies with like velocity. We could not mako a dozen alrokos before wo should bo swept to lho brink ; it was loo late.— We botb saw this, and each knew the leelings of lho other for wo felt alike. Neither spoke, but, crouching down and holding the gunwales oftho canoe, we awaited tho awful momeni. The bear eeemed lo hnve some apprehenaion as well; for, insteadof continuing his endeavors to climb inlo the canoe, ho contented himself with hulding lost to the stern, evidently under some alarm. The torch still blazed, and the canoe was catching fire ; perhaps this il wos that alarmed the bear. Thelast circumstance gave US at the momeni but Uttle concern : the grcni- er danger eclipsed the less. Wo had hardly noticed it, when wo fell that wo were going over. The canoe ahot outward as if propelled by some projectile forco ; then camo a loud crash, as ihough we had dropped upon a hard rock. Water and spray, and froth, were daahed over our bodiea, and the next moment, to our surpriso, as A-ell as delight, wc felt ourselve still alive and seated in the canoe, which wos floating gently in atill smooth water. It was quite dark, for the torch bad been extinguished ; but even in tho darkness wo could perceive thr bear, Bwimming and floundering noar tbe boat To our great satisfaction, we saw him bead' for tho shore, and widening tho distanccbetw^ himaelf and us with all ihe haste be could mo The unexpected precipitation over tho fall cooled his courage, if not his hostility. Dick and I headed the canoe, now half of waler, for the opposito hank, which wo ..u trived to reach by uaing the rifle and our ban for paddles. Hero we made tho Httto ve fast to a tree, intending to leave it thore, as could not by any poasibiHiy, get it back over fall. Having hung our game out of reach of wolvea, we turned our faces up stream, i after a long and wearisome walk, aucceeded gelling back to the poat. Next morning party went down after the venison, wilh tho tention of carrying the canoe back over tha The craft, however, was found to be so r injnred, thatit would not bang togeiher du... thoportage.and was therefore abandoned.

Mrs. Martin expecied lofiod a caijiag&Jeady to take her to Chateau do Sctiort, a distanco of some leagues, whither ahe waa ropamng on a visit; but was toldit. had not arrivad. The | landlady, a tall, coarse looking woman, who! showed her into the vast hall that served at once as a sitting-room and kitchen, observed that the roada were bo muddy and difficult at night, thero woa little chanca of her friend arriving before morning. *' You had bettor, therefore," said she, " mako .up your mind to aleep here. We havo a good room to ofler you, and you will be much moro comfortable bptween a pair of clean warm sheets, than knocking about in our rough ' counlry, especially os your dear child seems ! sickly.'* Mrs. Martin, though much fatigued by har ¦ journey, hesitated. A good night's rest was certainly a templing proapect, but she felt so confident that ber friends would not neglect her, that after a moment eho replied :f' thank you, modamo, I will sit up ior an hour or so, it is not late, and the carriage may come, after all. Sbould it not, I shall be glad of your room, which you may prepare for jno at any rate." The hostess, who eeemed anxious her gueat should not remain in tho great room, suggested that a fire might be made abova; but Mrs. Martin fouud herself so comfortable whoro ahe was—a pile of faggols waa blazing on the hearth —that she declined at firat lo move. Her daugh¬ ter, about fivo years of nge, soon wgp' to aleep in bar lap ; and sho heraelf lound that while her eara wero anxiously Usfiiing to the roll of car¬ riage wheels, her eyea occaaionaily closed and Elumber began lo make its insidious approaches In order to prevent heiself from giving way' she endeavored to direct her attention to the objects around her. Tho apartment was vaat, nnd lighied moro hy tho glore of the firo than by lhe dirty candle stuck into a filthy tin candle slick, that stood on one oftho long tables. Two orthree hugo beams atretched across halfway up the walls, leaving a space filled with flitting shadows abovo. From these depended a rusty gun or two, a sword, aeveral bags, hanks oT oniona, cooking utenails, 5:c. There were very few aigns tbat the house waa much visited though a pile of old wine bottlea lay in one cor¬ ner. Tho landlady sat at some diatance from the fire place with her two aona who laid their heads together, and talked in whispers* Mrs. Mariin began to feel uneaay The idea entered her inind ahe had fallen inlo the resort of robbers, and tho words " C* est elle," (is it she,) which was aU that sbe heard of tbe whis¬ perod converaaijon, contributed to her alarm, Thedoor leading into tho road was lefi ajar; and for a moment she felt an inclination to start up and eacape on foot. But sbe was far from any other habiiotion. and if tbe people of the houae entertained nny evil designs, her attempt would precipitate the catastrophe. So she re¬ solved on patience, but liatened attentively for the approach of her friends. AU she heard was lho whietling of the wind, and the dashing of lhe rain, which had begun to fall just after her arrival. About two hours passed in this uncomfortn. ble way. At length the door was ihrown open, and a man dripping wet came in. She breathed moro freely; for this now comer might frustrate tbe evil designs of her hostess, if she entertained any. He waa a red-haired, jovial-faced looking man, and inspired her with confidenca by the frankness and eaae of his manners. "A fino night for walking !*'cried he,ahaking himself like a dog who haa scrambled out of a pond. " What hnve you to give me I Salute J\}es?ieu.ie et Mesdarties. I am wet to the akin. Hope I disturb nobody. Give me a bottle of wine." The boatess, in a surly, sleepy tone, told her eldest son to serve the gentleman ; end then addressing Mra. Mo«i;a, eaid : " You see your friends wilinot come,ond you ore keeping ua up to no purpose. You had bet¬ ter gu to bed." "I will wait a little loneer," was the reply; which eUchcd a kind of a shrug of contempt. The red haired man finished hia bottle of wine, and then said; "Show me a room, good woman—I ahall aleep here to-night." Mrs. Martin Ihought as he pronounced theso words, he cast a protecting look towards her, and she felt less repugnance at the idea of pass¬ ing tbc night in the house. When, therefore, the red haired man, ofter a polite bow, went up stairs, ahe said, that as her friends had noi ar¬ rived, tbey might as well ehow ber lo her bed- j-oom. "I ihought it would come to that at lasl," said the landlady- "Pierre, take iho lady's trunk up stairs." Ina few rninuiea, Mrs. Martin found herself alone in a spacious room, with a large fire burn¬ ing on tho hearth. Her first care, after putting '^he cbild to bed, waa lo examine the door. It closed .nnly by a latch. There wasno bolt in¬ side. She louked around for something to bar¬ ricade it with, and perceived a heavy chest of drnwers.- Fear gave strength. She hnd lifted, halfpushed it ngninst tbo door. Not content with this, she seized a tablo to incrense the slrength ofher defenco. The leg waa broken, and when ahe touched it, it fell with a craah to the floor. A long echo wont sounding through the house, and she telt her heart sink within her. But the echo died away and no ono came ; so she piled the fragments ofthe table upon the chest of drawers. Tolerably satisfied in thia direction, she proceeded to examine the walls. They were all papered, and after examination, seemed to coniain no secret door. Mrs. Martin now sank down into a chair to think on her position. Aa was natural after taking all these precauiions, the idea suggested itself that it might bo superfluous, and eho smiled at the ibought ol what her friends would aay when she related to them tho terrors* of the nigbt. Her child was sleeping tranquilly its rosy eheeks half hurried in the piibw. The fire had blazed up into a bright fiame whito lh o unsnuflod candle burned dimly.—Tbe room was full of pale, irembling shadows, but she had no auperstiiious fears. Something poaitive could alone raise alarm. She liatened attentively, but could bear nothiug but tbo howling of the wind over tho roof, and the pattering of the rain against the window; panes. As her exciiemen diminished, the fatigue—which had been for¬ gotten—began again to make itself felt, nnd abe resolved to undresa and go to bed. Her heart leaped into her throat. Fora mo¬ ment ahe seemed perfectly paralyzed. She had undressed and put out the candle, when she ac - cjdontally dropped bor watch. Stooping to pick it up, her eyea voluntarily glanced towards the bed. A greot mass of red hair, a hand and a gloaming knife were revealed by tbo light oftbe fire. Aftertho first moment of ^terrible alarm, her preseneo of mind roturned. She felt that aho had of herself ciit off all means of escape by the door, and was entirely left to hor own re¬ sources. Without uttering n cry, but trembUng in every limb, the poor woman got into the bed by tbe side of her child. An idea—a plan had suggested itself. It had flashed through her brain like lightening. It wea the only chance left. The bed was so disposed that the robber could get from beneaih it by a narrow aperture at the head without making a noise ; and it was prob- nblo that ho would choose, from prudence, tbis meons of exit. Thero waa no curtain in tbe way, so Mra. Mariin, with terrible decision and noiielesB energy, made a running nooae with her sHk scarf and beld it poised over the nper- ture by which her enemy was to make his ap¬ pearance. She had resolved to strangle him in defence of her own life and that ofher child. Tbe position waa on awful one; and probably faad she beon able to dirccl her attention to the aurrounding circumstancea, she might have given way to her feara, and attempted to raise the houso by her screams. The fire on the hearth, unotionded to, had fallen around, and now gave only a dull, sullen light", with an oc¬ casional bright gleam. Every objeci in the vast apartment glowed wiih a resttesa motion. Now and then a mouse advanced stealthily along the floar, bnt, startled by some noiae under the bed, went scouring back in terror to' \(b hole. The child breathed steadily in its unconscious re¬ pose; the mother endeavored also to imitate islumber; but tfaa man under tfae bed, uneasy in his position, could not help occasionally making a fllight rioiso; '."' Mrs. Martin waa occupied with only two; ideas. Fiirst 0bo reflected on the eitnordiuarj delofi^D by which ahe had been led to see enemies in tho people of thet honae and a friend in the red haired man; and aecondly, it struck her that aa he wonld fear no roaiBtance from a woman, he might puih away tho chairs that were in bie way, re^diasa oi tho noise, and thus avoid the ¦h&re that wa« laid (or hira. Ooce ahe thongbt that, whibrhar attention waa etrongly directed to one spot, he had mada hij exit andwaa leaning ovei: her; but she was dacoived^by a flickering ahatipw on the woll. In reaUty there was no danger that ha would compromise tho success of his sanguinary enterprise, as tho shrieks of a victim put on its guard might alarm tho houee. Have yon ever stood, hour after hour with your fishing rod in hand, wailing with tho fero¬ cious patience ofan angler, for a nibble f Ifyou have, you have aome faint idea of the state oi mind in which Mra. Martin—with far other m- leresta at slake—passed the time, until an old clock OB the chimney-piece told .an bour after midnight. Another eource of anxiety now pre¬ sented itaelf—the fire had nearly burned out. Her dizzy eyas could acercely see the floor, na she bent with fearful attention over tho head of the bed—tbe terrible nooao hangmg like tho sword of .Damocles, above the gloomy aperture. "What, (thought she), if he delay bis appear¬ anco until the light haa completely died away 1 Will it not ihen be impoasiblo for me lo adjust the acorf—to do the deed—to kill thia nssassin— to aava myself and my child f O, God! deUver him into my bands!" A cautious movement below^the drnggin got hands and knees along tho floor—a heavy sop- presaed breathing—announced thnt the supreme moment wm near at hand. Her white arms were bared to the shouldera; her hair fell wildly around her face, Uke tbe mane of a lion ess about to hap upon its pray ; the diatended orbita of her eyes glared down upon tha spot where the queation of Ufe and death waa soon to be decided. Time seemed immeasurably lengthened out, every second ossumed the proportions ol an hour. .But at last, juat as aU Unes and forma began to float before her sight through an indis¬ tinct medium of blending light and darkness, a black mass interposed between her eyes and the floor. Suspense being over, the lime of action having arrived, everything seemed to paes with magical rapidity. The robber thruat his head carefully lorward. Mrs. Martin bent down.— There was a half-choked cry—tho eound of a knife falling to the floor—a convulsive strnggle. PaU! pull!! pull!!! Mrs. Martin heard nothing—aaw nothing but tho scarf passing between her two naked leet. She had half thrown herself back, and holding her scarf with both hands, pulled with a deaper¬ ate energy for her lifo. The conflict had begun; and one or the otber muat perish. The robber was a powerful man, and made furious effurts to get loose ; noi a sound escaped hia lips—not a aound from bers. The dreadful tragedy was en¬ acted in ailence. * • • • • "Well, mother Guerord," cried a youngman leaping out of n carriage that stopped before lhe door of the Auberge next morning' "what nows havo you got for me? Haa my mothor arrived t" "Is it your mother?" nsked lho landlady, who aeemed quite good humored after faer nijlu'e rest. "There's a lady up stairs waiting for aome friende, but ehe doea not speak French easily and seemed unwilling to talk. We could scarcely persuade her to go to bed." " Show me the room !''. cried Arthur, running into the house. Tbey soon arrived before the door. "Mother! motlier!" cried fae, bm fao received no answer. " The door ia only latched, for we faave no robbers in this part of tho country," eaid the londlody. But a formidable obstacle opposed their en¬ trance. They became alarmed, especially when lhey heard the ahrieka of the little girl, and burst opon tbc door. Tfae firat object tbat presented itaelf was thc Iace of the robber, violently upiurned frora be¬ neath the bed, and with protruding tongue and eyeballs ; the next was the form of Mrs. Mar¬ tin, in the poaiiion in which we left faer. She wsa Blill puUing with both hands at the scarf, and glaring wildly towarda the head of the bed. The child hod thrown its arms around her neck, and waa crying, but she paid no oiiention.— The terror of ihat dreadful night had driven her mod. making tooth-picks out ofold moons, he should accept the narrative with equanimity, and be¬ lieve it with fanaticiam. The Prefect cf Police haa forbidden wine sellers to faave Voltaic piles upon tfaeir coun¬ ters for the amuaement'of their customers, as one accident has already happened, and as othera would be likely to follow, were the practico continued. Thb Little Frenchman.—We pick up agood dealof fun now and then, saya the N.Y. I?utcA- man, in omnibuaaea. In going up Greenwich sl the other day, we faad for a fellow-paaaenger a- Fronchman—a brisk Uttle fellow, elegantly studded vr'nh gimcrackry and patent leacher. In getting out of the stage, he requested the driver to hand him a Utile mahogany box filled wiih jewelry. In complying with the request, tho driver eilher accidentally or by design dropped tbe cabinet and it came to the ground with a bump sufficient to knock its brains out. The Frenchman was petrified. For a moment hc could not find language strong enough to give " vent to his feelinga." At last he opened on bim: "By dam! I never see sucha loafer. Vot for you drop my box? Your finger slipped? No, saire, your finger no slip. You dropped der box, ao it might fall—yes, saire, dat vaa dcr vay it alipped. Bul I viil look to my vatchcs nnd jewels; nnd if anything ia broke, Ivill mako der company awet—yes, saire, I vill make de companies swet tUi doy vill perspire." Aa good luck would have it, noihing was broken, consequently ihe company was not called upon to pass ihrough tho fiery ordeal wfaicfa the Freuclimnn hnd been constructing for them. How aome People Live in Paris. Agosaiping correspondent of the New York Daily Times givea us the following inaighi to certain classes in Parisian life : The Wakers, or WaUeaaea—for none but women follow this profeffsion—aro individuals whose occupation it is to rouae from aleep, at on early hour, such persona aa have business at lho maket, and muat ho there betimea. "Their wages are two sous a morning for each subscri¬ ber roused. It seema strange tbat a profesaion liko ihia ahould requiro any particular aptitude or capabiUty, but it haa been found thnt onc woman will wake her cuatomers in just hnlf the time required by onother. In times gono by, when the market peoplo Uved huddled together in the immediate vicinity of tho HaUea, o good reveilleiire would wait upon fifteen or tweniy aubacribors every morning, and thus earn thirty or forty aoua before day break. But now, ibat the now Reu de Rivoli has pierced tho quarter, its denizens hove been dispersed, and the Wak- eresaea find it impossible lo serve moro thon half a dozen cuatoraera a day. The trade ia fal¬ ling into disuse. Tho Eye- Witness is a man who lives hy crime —not by that which he commits himself, but by that perpetrated by others. Tho moment he bears ol a murder or any cataatrophe of that sort, he immediately repaira so the scene of the aflair, aaya he knows all nbout it, picks up all the details he can find, adda to tbem, accounts it over a dozen a times, geta a son of notoriety BS the individual " that waa there when it hap¬ pened," leaves his name and address at the nearest wine shop, nnd awaits the efi'ect. Tbe examining judgo hears of this well-informed gentleman, and, in view to elucidate the case, has him at once sem for. He comes, and is sworn, and makes a total irrelevant deposition ; fae lells wfaat somebody elso said tfaat fac thought a third person had imogincd, and what be guess¬ ed was tho motiveof the quarrel. Beyond that, he can throw no light on the affair. But he has earned hia two francs—tho wagea of every wit¬ ness summoned to testify—and by his earnings in this way he livea. The Second Hand Witneas hangs about the Palace of Justice, and as gentlemen, who bavo testified, come from tho varioua audience rooms, ho asks them if lhey meon lo draw their two francs ; if they do not, he eupplicatea ihem, for the love of God, and for sympathy with a wile and the usual number of children, to pass over to him the paper entitling the bearer to the two francs in question. The second-hand witnees makes hap-hazard money enough in this way to live precariously, and die in the hospital. The Guardian Angel ia a man whoso duty it ia to frequent the drug shops, and thc moment a man gets tipay, to take him nuder his protect¬ ion, to accompany him bome, and put him lo bed. Tfae individuala practising this profession are picked man—men who never drink ihem- aelvea-wfao haye the neceasary moral authority to force obedience from the drunken creature lhey ore conveying homo—who can defend him against attack—and, more than all, who can pre¬ vent him frora drinking at the shops lhey pass on their way. Tho price for thia service is ten BOUa; and there is not an inatance on record of an individual- thua protected horae and put to bed having failed to diacharge thia debt of hon¬ or. It is a rule at the drinking shops, tbat when a man cannot aland, he must be taken ofT, and tfae Angel is atrnighlway called. The aiigela are kindly treated by the shopkeepers, whose interest it is that no one of his customers comes to harm. They receive the odds and enda of the dinner, ond are recommended to the neigh¬ bors when a reliable man for some confidential errand is wanted. Their honosty ia proverbial, and a BacchanaUan with a hnndred francs in hfs pocket, who is confided lo their charge, ia morally sure of finding hia hundred francs where he left them, when he wakes the noxt morning. A rich tippler, lately deceased, who spent the last years of hia lifo in drinking bluo wino at the barrier, left in bis will a thousand francs to each of the Guardian Angels who alternate¬ ly conducted him homo, after hia nightly poia- iona, at the Watering-Pot bf Montmartre.
