" '' I daresay, my lady, he was shot by some of the men ; for they seldom worked near the forest with- out having a gun with them, in case of seeing deer, or pigeons, or partridges, " " 1 should not like to live in that country, Mrs. Frazer ; for a bear, a wolf, or a catamount might eat me. " " I never heard of a governor's daughter being eaten by a bear, " said Mrs. Frazer, laughing, as she noticed the earnest expression on the face of her little charge. She then continued her account of the u...rsine family. " The bear retires in cold weather, and sleeps till warmer seasons awaken him. He does not lay up any store of winter provisions, because he seldom rouses himself during the time of his long sleep ; and in the spring he finds food, both vegetable and animal, for he can eat anything when hungry, like the hog. He often robs the wild bees of their honey, and his hide, being so very thick, seems insensible to the stings of the angry bees. Bruin will sometimes find odd places for his winter bed, for a farmer, who was taking a stack of wheat into his barn to be threshed in the winter time, once found a large black Dear comfortably asleep in the middle of the sheaves.
