MONARCH OF THE SIERRAS. A Mail bud u Itciir C-nlllct, III Which the Man Concilier?. On Thursday of last week, Mr. Nathan Rogers, wlio owns and lives upon a ranche in tho mountains, about a mile above West Point, near tho North Fork of the Mokelumne, had tho ino*t terrific encounter with a grizzly hear we ever read of. The details of the occurrence, ou norrolo'l r."h. mn t iva lows: Gray squirrels are quite numerous in that vicinity this season, and after din ner Thursday, Mr. Rogers went out for an afternoon's spo.'. (?hooting them. lie was armed with a light rifle, and fortu nately hud upon his person a largo knife which he occasionally caines. Grizzlies aro no strangers in the vicinity, and Rogers had frequently seen their tracks while hunting his stock ; but as it is yet too early for ravenous beasts to be driven out of the higher mountain ranges by the snow, ho felt no appr?hension from tlint source. Mr. Rogers proceeded leisurely along, meeting with such good success in gunning that by 4 o'clock his game"sack was well filled, and M he was a couple of miles from home, determined to retrace his steps. In leaving thc t'm bered ridge upon which ho had been shooting, Rogers had lo crosa a patch of comparatively open country, tho only growth it supported being a species of furze and an occasional bunch of chapar ral. He had gone but a Bhort distance, when, in descending into a little blind ravine, bc came upon a huge grizzly feeding upon thc carcass of a sheep, it is needless to add ho did not proceed any further in that direction. Tho bear was not over 20 feet distant-a space Rogers had not the remotest desire to diminish. Man ano beast discovered each others presence at tho same moment. Rogers is a resolute man, a splendid murk: mun and well inured to tue dangers and ex perience of backwoods life; but, as with u full knowledge of thc characteristics of thc ferocious animal facing him, he re alized his situation, hope died away in his breast. For a moment he stood irresolute. His first impulso was to run ; but. his better judgment told him if he did so, and should bo pursued by tho grizzly, escapo would bo impossible, and he would bc taken ut a disadvantage in tho struggle Thich muat inevitably fol low. Dreadful as was tho alternativo of facing his terrible enemy, it, was his only hope, and Rogers firmly resolved to stund Im ground, and if the worst carno to tho worst, to at least ?ell his lifo as dearly aa possible. There was a chanco thnt the grizzly might not attack him if he retained a huid attitude, but whatever hopes Rogers builded upon that founda tion were speedily dispelled by tho bear giving a low growl, dropping his mutton and advancing toward him. The hunter's heart leaped to his throat as the.threatened struggle became an un avoidable certainty, and tho agonizing thought that its result might lenvo his wife a widow and his children fatherless nearly unmanned him. Thc weakness was but momentary, and then, with every muscio and nerve in bis body drawn to its utmost tension, thc man awaited ibo onset of the beast with IIB much coolness as though his lifo was not at ?tako in thc unequal contest. A? tho grizzly slowly came toward him and hud got withiu a distanco of about fifteen steps. Rogers threw his rifle to his shoul der, and with a steady aim, planted a bullet in the bear's breast, just inside the point of the right shoulder. The animal was hit hard, but no Bixty-to-the-pound bullet ever stopped a grizzly. " itu a growl BO ferocious that it resemHed a roar, the infuriated nnimnl rushed for ward to the attack. Throwing asido the now useless rifle, and drawing his knife, Rogers braced himself for the death struggle. As the shaggy monster reared upon its haunches, its great, black, con vex head towering two feet nba ve Rogers, the ' .ter involuntarily threw up his left arm like a pugilist on guard. The bear seized tho arm in its mouth, and throw ing its groat paws over tho shoulders of tho hunter, hugged him in an embrace so cruel that nis oyes ?cerned starting from their sockets, and the blood gushed from his nostrils. Rogers' right arm was freo, and ho drovo the long blade of his knife to the hilt in the sido of thc grizzly, close to tho shoulder. The blade cached a vital point, inflicting a fatai wound, but its immediate effect was only to in crease tho grizzly's ferocity. It hugged Rogera tho closer, its long, sharp, chisel pointed claws tearing gaping wounds io the unfortunate dian's b?cle) while with a sickening sound the bones of his loft arm wero crunched and ground to pow der jn tho vise-like jaws of bis terrible antagonist. Wild with the agonies of his wounds, Rogers plied his knife with tho energy of desperation, driving it again ana again into tho vitals of tho bear, literally carving it alive, while tho latter, with claws and teeth, lacerated its human foo in tho most frightful manner. It was, indeed, a struggle to death. Rogers, weak from the loss of blood, and half delirious from pain, now fought moro from intuition than anything else, having only a vague consciousness that his lifo deponded upon putting an end to that of tho boan The terribie wounds of tho grizzly were also commencing to tell upon its vitality. Rogers' senses were not so dulled but that ho could dis tinguish that the grizzly waa gradually relaxing its hold, aud tho ray ot hope tho knowledge afforded him stimulated him to renewed exertions with his knife. Tho bear endeavored to support itself de spite ita criiisl wounds, wavering .for an instant, and then, with a low moan that Bounded almost human in its expression of pain aud despair, tho hug? monster toppled over, dragging the mau with it, tho latter falling partially underneath. Summoning all his remaining strength, Rogers plunged his kuifo into the griz zly's abdomen, the hot lifo blood and viscera i. luting full in his face. The bear relinquished its hold, and Rogers, torn, lacerated, and.bleeding, crawled far enough away to escape being rent to pieces by tho tcrriblo death-struggle of tho grizzly. Although victorious, Rog ers' condition was critical in the extreme. Ho was a mile and a half away from - home, so weah and faint he could acaree iv stand, and in danger ot" bleeding to death beforo he could r*-ch help. His ]qft arm hung crushed and lifeless at his sido, his left-scapula and clavicle wore broken, the blood trickled from ihn tor. ri bio wounds in his back, and his legs were literally furrowed by the crooked claws of the bear's hind feet. Conscious that ho must soon have help or perish, ho summoned ali his resolution and stag gered along in tho direction of home, more dead than alive, a trail of blood marking his footsteps. He mamurdi tn reach a spring in sight of his House, when his endurance at last gave way, ana he iel1 in a d?ad faint by the water's edge. Fortunately ho was soon after discovered by his son, a lad of some twelve jrea*s, who immediately gave the alarm. Rogers vraa taken home and his wounds temporarily dressed, an express in the meahtimo hoing sent for a physi cian. The grizzly was the largest- ever koowa to have been ' Wed in tho county. It measured niuo feet in length "over all," and weighed 1,400 pouuda. Tho left side of the bear was literally torn to ^ pieces, ibero being no lena than twenty two knife wounds, nearly ovary one of which reached a vital point. One of its fore paws has boen sent to us. Some idea of ito size can he obtained when we ? state that the foot jost covers an ordinary dinner plato. Ai ino present writing (Thursday] Mr. : Rogers is lying in an extremely critical condition. In addition to his horrible wounds, tho idmcl: to his system was d terrible ?ac, i?la left arin, literally : jlod and tom to shreds, han been iuwicu at tho shoulder.

Chron icle. MISS BENNETT'S SENSIBLE M ATCH. '.' iiv ?Ii? rt ? Kg ti ut tfauitta ?oniun ?x-niii-ics Histor-A Wedding I'reseut or ?.?00,000. NEW YORK, October 5. James Gordon Bennett's sister has en rolled herself among thc sensible A mcri can girls whose fortunes were not carried ofTby bankrupt foreign noblemen. The Irish peer who was announced to be in hot pursuit of her share of the accumu lations of the shrewd old Scotchman who founded the Herald must have bien dis appointed, for the gentleman who mar? ried Miss Bennett a fortnight ago is a New Yorker and the son of an old New York merchant. Isaac Bell, Jr., the happy man, is comfortably rich in his own right, besides having expectations from his father, Isaac Hell. He is one of the elided youth of New York, of whom James Gordon Bennett is the bright und shining example. As a rule they are young men of laborious leisure, dress English, talk English, wear Eng lish whisker*, drive coaches as the Eng lish do, and in other respects found themselves upon the blurstcd aristocracy of tho British Isles. Mr. Hell, however, seems to be a sensible mun if ho is fash ionable; and his wife is a quiet little lady, speaking and writing several lan guages, au accomplished musician, and a great social favorite. The match acema to bc regarded in the circle of the gilded youth ns a proof that thc driving of coaches and playing ol' polo tends to tho formation of perfect existences, and no doubt thej would have liked to see the bri?le and groom driven to thc altar in Col. DeLancy Kane's four-in-hand. There is a thread of romance in thc bride's life which the marriage has re called to those acquainted with tho cir cumstances. There was a time, as almost everybody knows, when Miss Heimelt was bent upon taking the veil. So strong was her desire that il was with great difficulty her father could persuade her to put off for a time her farewell to thc lifo of tho world. Finally, by por traying the lonely condition in which ho would be left if she should enter a con vent, I J succeeded in obtaining her promise that she would wait to fulfill her cherished wish until alter his death. When Hbo conceded thal much she did not know how much of a victory thc shrewd old man had won. For ho pro vided in his will that in case she should determine riot to enter a convent, one half of his property, excepting thc Herald, should he hers, and this would bea hundsuinc fortune; if she should, however, persevere in her original inten tion, the whole property should pass lo her brother. What was the result? Why, just what the sly Scotchman had foreseen. The peoplo who had been urging the veil upon Miss Bennett, being Catholics of tho sort that amass wealth for the church and hunt down fortunes as a hound might u hare, rather than Catholics of the sort that have carried tho cross into every land beneath the sun and have filled the annals of tue church with the record of their piety and heroism, found that sho was coming to them empty-handed ami fell away from ber as if she had been smitten with the plague. She saw tho selfish and cunning policy that lay hack of much that had been said to her, and like a sensible wo man she changed her mind, as all sensi ble women invariably do. Therefore, Bhe is now a happy wife, instead of being a hopeless nun. James Gordon Bennett made her u splendid wedding present-no less than *500,000 in caah. It was hardly moro than he ought to havo done, considering that almost all of her share of thc prop erty is unproductive ; but the number of brothers who would have given away morn than their whole income for-two years is limited.-Chr. Cincinnati Com mercial. The Right? of Planters.

S. INTERNAL REVENUE, COLLECTOR'S OFFICE, DIST. S. C. COLUMBIA. Oct. 2.1878. J. W. Holmes, Esq. : SIR-Replying to your inquiry, I havo to 8tato that a farmer or planter who simply supplies his employees with what manufactured tobacco they need for their own personal uso, and for their special accommodation, and not with a view to gain or profit to himself, is not regarded as engaged in tho business of selling manufactured tobacco, and would not be required to pay special tax for thus sup plying bia hired laborers with tobacco. A farmer or planter who, solely for thc accommodation of bis laborers, as above stated, not with a view of gain or profit to himself, even though he charges a price for tho tobacco in advance of what ho pays by tho box sufficient to make himself entirely whole, that is to reimburse himself for such loss, cost nod expense as ho may necessarily incur, is uot held to be iiabie to pay for inc special tax. Yours, respectfully, E. M. BRAYTON, Collector. REMARKABLE CONDUCT OF A DOO. A lady, writing to her friends from Dub lin, gives ar account of a ?trange occur rence by which her husband was saved from being run down in a ferry-boat. Tho gentleman was just about to stop into tho ferry-boat to cross the river, when a largo dog rushed upon him, caught hold of his trousers with his teeth, and at tho samo time kept up a constant howl. It was only after consid erable difficulty that he could get him self released, and by that time thc ferry boat had been shoved oft' into- tho river. The gentleman naturally felt much an noyed at beiug prevented from crossing, but his feelings wcro changed when, a minute later, ne saw tho ferry-boat ruu dowu by a steamer which had approach ed without noticing tho boat. The pas sengers ..-ero thrown into tho water, but fortunately the crew of the steamer woro successful ii saving them all, some being very much exhausted, howover. While thinking of tho si?ga?air means by which ho had oeen saved trom the accident, tho gentleman could not help noticing tho conduct of tho dog, which followed close ly at his heels. He tried every means to get rid of it during the day. but in the afternoon tho animal was still following him, and he was obliged.tc take it home with him.. The dog has now been in stalled as watchman of the house, and bas already shown great attachment to the gentleman and bia family.-Dundee Advertise.'._ AN UNFAILING EVIDENCE OF GOOD rASTE.-Tho judicious use of som? deli cate perfumo is an unfailing ovideneo of ?rood taste.

Tho rc cul lette- of .Senator 11 ill, of Georgia, denouncing tho Precedential frauds hud condemning tho President j uni his appointments to oflice ami his I policy general!/, is thc cause ol* much I surprix '.. . I Jp to tho closing hourn ' ot Uongre???, in June ia?:, the President hail, apparently, no better friend or warum tiefender than Senator Hill. Only a few days before the adjournment ! of Congress Mr. Hill. :.. ? published ir. terview, spoku of Mi. Mayes ?is honest and upright, and in no way responsible for thu frauds by which he was elevated to the Presidency. A member of thc Cabinet says that Mr. Jlili'o opeu ad vocacy of thu President was ul times a source of enibarrassnu nt and annoyance, and that the President would have much preferred it Iud Mr. Hil! been less vehe ment in his support. In his letter just published, Mr. Hill says : ''Hayes is as wad a man as Andrew Johnson would have been had he appointed Hoot li to H scat in his Cabinet." Those here who are thoroughly acquainted with Mr. Hill believe that this sudden and radical change in his opinion of the President, put forth pretentiously at this time, when there seems no occasion or excuse for it, is to bo taken as a notice of Mr. Hill's intention to attack the administration ou the opening of Congress. .Mr. Hill is an , exceedingly earnest and determined man, ami is never satisfied with a quiet role. During thc last session of Congress, through the eflbrts ol' prominent Demo cratic Senators, no attempt was made to bring up for party discussion in thc Sen ate any questions growing out of thc set tlement of tho lost Presidential election. In the course of thc debates in the Sen ate, both in open and in secret session, all allusions made to the subject by Sen ators of either side were couched in the . spirit ol'moderation and of conciliation. If, as Mr. Hill's friends appear to think, it is his purpose to precipitate on the tloor of thc Senate this question, it will afford all the opportunities for sensations thal he or any one else may desire. To reopen the question in thu Senate will bo to inaugurate a discussion that would spread over a large part of the ensuing session, and which would bo bitter ami violent in tho extreme. It is said on thu authority of Mr. Hogers, the private sec retary ol' the President, that Mr. Hill's assertion that he has made no recommen dations to office is not borne out by tho facts. To the contrary, Mr. Hogers say>:, Mr. Hill has made a number of recom mendations for oflice, and several of the persons recommended by him have been appointed. A friend of tho President handed Sen ator Hill's letter to him, and its perusal caused him thc most intense surprise, as he still has the most lively recollection of the almost dail" visits paid to tho White House by M.: Hill in the carly ?pring of 1H77, and his continued subs? quent assurances of confidence and ap proval. Thu President was then re minded of a remark made to him in April, 1877, by a prominent Southern gentleman, not an officeholder, who has known Mr. Hill for mun y years. Thc remark was almost in tbc:<u words: "Mr. President, mark what I tell you; you think Mr. Hill a firm friend or yourself and of your administration, but the day will como when he will turn on you." IL may bu thal Mr. Hill will content himself with the issue, cf his letter- and will not undertake to stir up strife on the floor of the Senate, but tho intemperate language which he uses fully justifies the conclusion that hu means to pitch in. SENATOR THL'ItI.1 AN. Tho Ohio Htatonimiu on tho Result In Ohio. Senator Thurman has recovered from his attack of illness brought on by cam paign work, and lins given his view.i upon the result in Ohio to a reporter of the Enquirer. He Buid : "I am not iu thu lenst discouraged by the Ohio elections. I had hoped for a better result, but feared it would be worso. This is tho first year tho issue has been clearly deli nd between the peo ple and tho National Hanks, and, though attestions of monetary science arc equally ry th?mes for discussion, they have begun to absorb thu attention of tiie peo plo this year and they took but little in terest in any other. Had wo faltered on this questiou wo Hhould have been beaten far worse. Tho platform of this year strengthened tho Ohio Democracy great ly. Then if wo add to our vote that of tho National party or Greenbackers, the Republicans, or the party ol the National Hanks, was in n miuority of thousauds. Yes, tens of thousands of votes. 'T'-en remember how their candidates ami oratora dodged and prevaricated. Secretary Sherman carno o^t here to tell them he wanted to ke-.tp $300,000,000 in greenbacks in circulation-a declaration that has brought on him the severest denunciations of bank advocates in the East. Foster said in his speech that he wanted all the greenbacks now outstand ing kopi tn circulation, and McKinley and Van Vorhes were both urged for election because they wore greenback m JD. Others dodged thc question alto ?'thor, juat ns their platform dodged it. i.'t t'-, National Banks couldn't be de ceived, and they and the hundred thou sand officeholders supplied the sinews of war. As thc result, nover before in Ohio was there so corrupt a use o? money in nn election. I don't say that the National Banks in their corporate capacity furn ished money, but their shareholders and dopendent:i did. Of courso Democrats lost some votes by assailing banks, just as thero were deserters from that party when Jackson vetoed thu bi11 to charter the old national banks. But. our losses wero moro than compensated by gains fr?;m Mio other side. "Tiie antagonism between Democracy and hs National Bank system was inev itable. H ?vas what Seward once called the irrepressible conflict. It is now a icjuaro fight between them and tho peo ple, and every day makes it more plain that we have the right side of the. ques tion. Two thousand banks wielding fivo hundred millions of capital and eight hundred millions of deposits, supported by n great political party in power, using thc ?M?J?US? patronage ot the Govern ment to retain its dominion, ia a formi dable foo to nttack, but tho attack will nevertheless provo successful in the end."
