It was evident that he bad not obi Visited bet acta ally beea in tbe irp Hie tracks were plainly to be seen, bat for some unaccountable reason or other the Itap had not Brang The fact of his presence renewed my almost extinguished hopes, and I immediately adjusted the trap wiih the greateat nicety; and to make still more sore, I determin 4 " ed to pass the next aigbt withia hearing distance; so that, in caae of catching, I might be certain of secur'og bim. At the tame time, as tt was necessary to be particular and not disturb the trail, as when disturbed bears will often leave a region, I erected a small tent about half a mile down tbe ravine, and about five hundred feet lower io level tbaa the trap, where TuoIum ne and I slept for two nights without either pro visions or fire; and, as will be readily imagined, we bad rather a comfortless time of it, and par ticularly so as We waited ia vain to bear of our expected visitor. : L Io the middle of the third night, however. I was waked out of sleep by a tetrifie roaring It was the a wfulest roaring and echoing in the mountains 1 ever heard, with the single exception of aa appalling thunderstorm in the Hum bold l Mountains, which occurred the sammer be fore. I jumped op at once and ran out of the tent to listen what could be the cause of tbe noise, and eooa cooeloded that it coeld be nothing else but the bear la my trap. The night was cold, with a slight snow- on the ground, but I called Tuolomne, and we at once lighted our torches and proceeded to the trap. As we approached, the beer made a tremendous lunge to wards as, aad I thought for a moment that be would burst out-, but the trap was made of the1 strongest timbers, and withstood bis assaults. We directly built a rousing fire, and then wen" to work secoriog the trap with additional timbers j for, by peeping at tbe cracks, we soon tat iafied ourselves that our prize was one of the lart gest in tbe land. I was compelled to watch this trap eight and day for more thaa a week, daring which , time Tuolumne brought provisions and water, and some bights would remaia with me. During this time, tbe bear con tinned violent; be would bite and tear the logs with bis teeth and claws, "Bod frequently made the struct eie fairly tremble with his prodigious strength. We bad sometimes to 1 beat him with an iron rod, and at others to throw ! a firebrands,7 which be fought with the same effect that the viper bit the file, to prevent bim tearing hi prieon to pieces. . Oa the eighth or ninth day, however, his spirit weakened, and he appeared to grow reconciled to his fate.. ' When this species of saKjugatioa takes place, there is so further trouble wiih a bear until he is removed to a new cage; and then the same process' though not aaaelir ao severe, baa to be gone ihroaeh with. Such was tbe manner in which I canht the Samson, whose weight. is over fifteea hundred pounds, and whose massive proportions have for years beea tbe admiration of all . who have seen him. He was then in his prime, aod has grown aoue since the only effect of confinement and good living has been to make him lasy and imperious, like a pampered moo arch, and to change bis shaggy, coarse, hair from gray to brown. His strength was so immense that for a long time a was compelled to keep bim io the trap ia whxb he was caught, it being dangerous to remove him; and when, in the coarse of a few weeks, my business called me away to another part of the country, I engaged four woodchop. pera. who were at work eottiag timber for a min ing flume in tbeighborbood, to feed bim; atd it was aot aatil more tbaa a month afterwards that I felt safe in racing and baoling bim away.

He was oa a visit, ith two of bis friends, to one of bis estates near the steppe and they determined to go On a wolf bunt. ' .They prepared a Urge sleigh, ia which three persons could move at ease, three vigoroO horses were pat ia to it, arid they selected for a driver, a man bora ia the country, and thoroughly experienced in the sport.. Every huntsman bad. a pair b( doo-ble barrel guns, and one hundred and fifty balls acd cartridges; It was aigbt wbea tbey reached the steppe, that is an immense prairie covered with snow. The moon was full and shone bril liantly; its beams refracted by' the snow, gave a light scarcely inferior to daylight. , , .; .' The pig was put oat of the sleigh, and tbe horses whipped n p. As soon as the pig felt that be was dragged, be began to squeal. A wolf or two appeared; but they were timid and kept a long way off. Their numbers gradually increased, and as thev gained in strength they became bolder. There were about twenty wolves wbea they came within gun range of the troika. One of tbe party fired; a wolf fell. . The flock became alarmed and half fled a way. Seven or eight hungry wolves remained behind to devour their dead companion. The gaps were soon filled. On every side, bowls answered bowls; oa every side, sharp noses and brilliant eyes were seen peering. The guns rattled volley after vol ley; but the flock of wolves increased instead of diminishing, and soon it wax sot a flock, but a vast herd of wolves, in thick serried columns, which gave chase to the sleigh. ; The wolves branded forward so rapidly they seemed to fly over the snow, and so 1-ghtly not a soaad was beard; their number con tinned to ia' crease and increase; tbey seemed to be a silent tide drawing nearer and nearer, and which the guns of the party, rapidly as they were discharged, bad no effect on- them. - ,Tae wolvee formed a vast crescent, whose borne began to eacom-paas the horses. Tbe numbers increased so rap-iAy tbey seemed to spring out of tbe ground. There was somethiag weird in their appearance, for where could three thousand wolves come from in saeh a desert of euowf The psfty had taken tbe pig into the sleigh, bis squeal , increased the wolves' boldness. The party continued to fire, bot taey bad now ased about half their ammonh tion, and bet two band red cartridges left, while tbey were surrounded by three" thousand wolves. I inetwonorns oi tno crescent sesame aearer and aearer, and threatened to - eavelope the par If one of tbe horses should have given at the fate of the whole party was sealed. "What do yoa think of this, Ivaa?"said Prince Repine, speaking to the driver. "I woald rather be at'bome, Prince.'' 44 Are you afraid of any evil consequences." "The devils have tasted blood, and the more yoa fire, tbe more wolvee you'll have." "What do yoa think is the best thing to be doner : .; ;,v:-r. . : "Make the hofsee go faster." ' Are you sure of the horses 7 "Yes, Prince." ' ' ' "' Are yoa sure of ourstfetjT ; The driver made no reply. . He quickened the horses, and turned their beads towards home. Tbe driver excited them to ; increased speed by a sharp whistle, and made them describe a curve which intersected one of tbo boras of tbo crescent. Tbe wolves opened their ranks and let tbo horses pass. - ' 'v -.A'-'-- ' ' Tbe Prince raised bis gun to bis sboo1def "For God's sake don't firal" exclaimed the div vert 'wo are dead mea if job do?" He obeyed Ivan. The wolves, astonished by ibis nnexpeeted act, remained motioaleas for a miaate. Deriog this mineto the troika was a verst from them. Wbea tbo wolves started again after it, it was too late,-tbey could not overtake iu . ' A quarter of an boar afterward tbe were ia sight of borne.'
