Bruin, though evidently baffled, had a firm look, which showed he had not, lost I confidence in himself." If-the difficulty of the undertaking had once deceived him, he was prepariugio go at it again. . Ac- -dingly, letting-himself down upon all fours, he. ran furiously at fhe alligator. The alligator was reaxly for him, and throwing his-head and body partly around to ;yoid the onsef, met bruirthalf way, with a blow of hi? tail, taat rolled him back on the shells.. Old bruin was not to be put off by orje hint ; three times in rapid succession he rushed at the alliga- tor. and wasas ojten repulsed in the same manner, being (knocked back bv each blow just far enough to give the alligator time to recover trie swing oi his tail be fore he returned' Tha tail of the alliga tor sounded like ja flail against the thick coat of hair on bruin's head and shoulders, but k he .bore it without flinching, still pushing on to come to close holts with hi scaly toe. He "made his fourth charge with a degree off jdexterity, which those who have never seen this clumsy looking animal exercising, would suppose him in capable of. This time he got so close to the alligator before his tail struck him, that the blow came with half its usual effect. The alligator was upset by the charge, and before he i could recover his feet bruin grasped him round the body below the fore ilegs, and holding him down on his back:, seized one of his legs in his mouth. Tjhe alligator was now iu a desperate situation, notwithstanding his coat of mail, which is softer on his belly than his back, from which t " the darted stcl in idle shivers flies." As Kentuck wo&ld sav, u he was getting ued up fast."' fHere if I dared to speak, and had supposed he could understand English, I should have uttered the en couraging exhortation of the poet ; Now gallant knight, now hold t'iy own, No maiden's arms are round thee thrown."

The bank from which they ell was four feet high, and the water be low seven feet deep. The tratnuit stream received the tombatants with a loud splash, then closed over tfrem insilence. A volley of ascending bubbles announced their arrival at thefbottom, where the bat tle ended. Presently bruin rose again, scrambled up jthe bank, cast a hasty glance back at the river, and made off, urig, to the cane brake.

They used to k tell a pleasant story on thesubject,; for :r which we are indebted fo Pausanius. About thirty furhngs from the city of Sgarta, Icarius placed a statue of Modes ty, for the purpose of perpetuating the following incident : 44 Icarius having married his daughter to Ulysses, solicited hi3 son-in-law to fix . his household in Sparta, and remain there with his wife, .to which Ulysses 'would not consent. v . 44 Frustrated in his application to the ' husband, he made the like request t6 his daughter, conjuring tier not to abandon him; but seeing her ready to depart with Ulysses, for Ithaca? he redoubled his ef- fortg to retain her, nor could he be pre- vailed upon to desist from following the" char?ot on the way.

Tcarius, yery sen- ' sibly affected by this behaviour, and be ing desirous of transmitting it, consecra ted a statue of modesty on the very spot where Penelope had thrown the7 veil over her lace, that, after her, it might be a universal symbol of delicacv with the fair i rv-,:-- r r;1 4 k -Jt ft ; sex. 5 I see no satisfactory proof A BAPTIST C A MP-MHETING will commence1 being guilty, It's a hard on the second Friday in Qctobe next, at New- ngnt Meeiintr House, eighteen mdts north of llaleigh.
