We herewith present our readers with an ea graving of the grizzly bear ( Uru horrHnus)'vk his favorite haunt. By most writers in natural history he is pronounced the most ferocious beast of America, and classed with the tiger of India. Undoubtedly, when accompanied by cube, when wounded, or when cornered, the grii zly is the most ferocious, savage ami unre lenting I . i .i-i on the face of the earth. Rut ai a rule among hunters, the Cinnamon bear U more to Ij feared, as being more generally in clined to allow tight without provocation. We have yet to learu of a man ever beinj actually eaten by a liear. They content them selves with hugging, and biting and leaving their victims motionless. We have seen four different individual! who have been in their clutches, and none of them were injured to such an extent as to unlit them for active life. One of them laid for three days under the bear, w hich ho had killed with his knife, before help came to him. Therefore our young men out hi the country rusticating need havo no fears of being etateii entirely up; and should they see a hear, our advice ia by all means shoot if thw can kill him; if not, raise your voice and howl, ami see bow fast he can run.
