tubiect of emhelli-hi d detail, (t uc. raMnallv bear occurrence s so toiicbiiig and p ilhelic in their natuie as to awoken our sinpatbie. n I interest u in tbeir narration. Of s:i di a nature is that which wo now preterit to the reader. Mr. Charles Denrghan Idft the north pn t prt of thi Province a short tune n-o, and took wht i- called the upjuT road trom Fredeiitks Ion to S. Stephens, on his way to the United States On the 5tli Anust be paS'd Hie ihriTin vilTage nt Hart's .Mills, on the lludinironi, Tpry eaily in the morniriir, and expected to rtach brew's t.vern, at t!e Pikabagan, by rncht. Propel ly equipped fof the woods, fur iThed with suitable provision, bis blanket, bis use idling behind, it his g"T on hi shoulder, he trudged "tr h i 1 y along until be arrived at Shin reek, which is unbridled, and was at the time much swollen with late rains A woodman seldom hesitates nt uch ob-stHcles: he proceeded Bp the bank of the stream, bihI set about felling a tree across it, to serve as a temporHry britlge ; It iwnn aside in falling, nnd launching into the

rleep water, it moved away majestically down Ihe stream. Our traveller looked and looked. rid wist not w hat to do. He was not inclined to resume the- axe; nnil therefore resolved to proceed up the stream, in hopes of Cading a faTorable pi. ice for crossing At length he arri ted nt one of those placid looking pools which fjrru deep streb bes in our rivers, and are gene ridlv termed still-water pi ir es. Here be made e kind of raft sutlieient to bear up his clothes nnd gun, and keep them dry , while be swain oTr and drew them after hiu. He was soon tusdv engagftl in reh abiting his limb":, and re frcb"mg loin-elf with n bit of biscuit, seated on the tbiwt-ry ii.m rin of a natural meadow, which extended alons tl.c bank4 ot a stream, when hietr was started by a whining noise rc.-mhliug l',M)iinil frequently uttered liy young bears He instantly seized hisgmi examined the tonelikole and re primed, then clapping a ball into the t ki rcl, "with look intent, And eye and ear attentive bent," he ft de cau'ioiidy towards the spot whence tbp sounds issued Irom. They were no longer uttered, but be now and then heard a crackling n'dsp among the undei brush, and perceived a twitching motion r,f the twig Hiid spray, but ould not di-cover what ( -nu-ed th' m. Convineed, however, that he had some animal to enponnter, his sua was at bis shoulder, and los ii;i'i on the trigger. He then silentlv reasoned with himsell' whether or not he shoal 1 fire at random, but experience cautioned him asaiii'-t to rah an action, tor nonnimilis more-tariou-than a wounded bear. A thus hp mused, hi eyes became su Ulenly dilated, bi-heart throbhed violently, he raised him'elf encf, and be Jet the butt of bis e;nti drop quickly to the ground! What did he see ! What did he gaze nt? Behold! among the ra-phcrry bushes and peen tlirough the interstices of their many twinkling leaves of dewy green behold 1 he sees a beautiful infantine arm fitfully stretched out nd little taper fingers plucking the rich, ripe erimson fruit. After be bad experienced the first flush of the mingled emotions of surprise at the eitranrdin iry sight of hoi ror of the bare idea of bis gun an 1 bis intended act and of plea-ure in thrt expectation of meeting rsociety in tiicfe deep and solemn solitudes, on" traveller advanced, and beheld a little girl about seven years old, sedulously encased in pulling and eatina 'f the abundant wild berries which w ere spread In gay variety over the naturally rich and verdant spot.

She apprnrcd to he an intrrptinsr child ; her

and mv body : for thou bact redeemed me, O Lord, thou Cod of truth! Amen!" Mr. Ueararhan next began consider how the child was to be brought al ms. He w as sixteen miles past her father's and bis business would not allow him to return; be wa about twelve miles from Tiew'ntid no bou-e bi ween. The child w r unable, to w alk ; he rinsed out a con irivance by r.ii'jin of bis bb nket, nnd carried her forward 011 his hack. The delightful con--cioiirm ( f pei forming cood action buoyed up I. is spirits and nerved hi5 frame, and he beguiled the ri-or f bis laborious t:k by the

pratt!e of his little foundling', who had become i aiore s; rightly and f;ep.

'Providence seems to b a?e defended you in on espe cial manner, my child, against bidden dangeis and death," said the traveller. Having carried his helpless charge until daylight was gone, bis latigue was increased by the difficulty of walking on an almost trackless road in the dark, and the moon did not rie mitil near ten o'clock. At length be arrived at n deserted log hut, within two miles of f row's, and almost exhausted he determined to make a 'hort stoppage to recruit. Here be thought to leave the child, wrapped in his blanket, whil-t he should hurry on, and send back immediate relief, lie struck a light, partook of some re

freshments with her, but (ound great difficulty in getting her to consent to remain behind. After he had prppared a pretty comfortable bed for her, ami placed her comfortably in it. be sat down to watch until she should fall asleep. I he moon had just risen, and before be started, he gently approached the child, to find if the were perfectly composed ; he held the li:ht towards her. she opened her blue eyes full upon him, averted her head and sobbed. "o!v ex claimed the traveller, by all that's sacred, I will not leave yon behind." He forthwith slung hi axe and hi gun, resumed hia former eipiipmrrits, raised little Lydia Iroin her lonely -ouch, and carried her sa tely to the long looked fur hon-e of entertainment.

But when 1 come to look over and figure up, I found out where the trouble whs. It was what they call extra allowances, and the pay hi wrapping paper, hlunka arid twine that1 done the mischief.
