Thete is no evidence that he ever did betray Vio let secret ; but two things may be regarded a settled facts iu the records of Alnwick Place one Is that Aunt Rebecca strenuously denios the exis tencs of cboets, and abhors the very sight of ber nelce's white mantle witli cherry trimings ; the olner is, that she is particularly careful uever to pas through the solemn old haunted hall alone after sunset ! BESIGED BY A GRIZZLY. Speaking about bsars and their Habits, Mr. r Ben. Stricklank, of the Upper Yellowstone, said to me one day while we were at his house : Do you see that cabin ! pointing to a log hat opposite, and acrots the river, in a rivine near the foot of the mountains; ' I replied that I did. "Well, said he, "one day in loo-, I was standing on the upper side, of that cabin looking about carefully, as ?we had to be fery cautious on account of the Indians. Four of us had been making that place our headquarters for some time, but my three companions bad gone off on a hunt, and I was left alone to look after things, While standing there I heard quite a rust ling noise in the bashes shore me, and then the he4Tyrcad3t".80e animal, which I supposed to be elk. Not having time to get my gun, I jtood and waited,. In a moment more oat came a monster grlzaly from bebhd the bashes on. the op posite sidv of the ravine, and the instant he saw me he rose on his hind legs,- about twenty feet dis tant, making a tremendous jump, and if I had not dodged oat of hie way he wbafd ? have completely scalped me with his powerful claws. Befo re he could gather, himself up to come again, I had ran inside the house aad closed the door; He now ran around the house several times, trying to get io, and finally discovering the port hole, ' which was a squsre opening aboat two feet wide, he thrust in his head, al most completely filling the opening. By this time I bad my gun ready, and the moment his head was fully inside 1 fired, killing him iostsotly. lie was a mcster aa largo as an 6z and his skin was quite large enough to cover the roof of the cabin. 1 bsre killed a great many bears grnali es and all; i c fact, I bare killed as many as twtntyfi?e in one season bat 1 never came across one of tbo animals as large as that one.

WALKING RIGHT-HANDED A writer in Nature on the sub ject of unconscious bias in walking shows that it may in some cases be rer? marked.1 lie sajs: "I legsa with walking myself, and getting various friends to walk, with eyt a shut,: in a grass field.
