General Hancock on the morning of the 14 tli sent a flying dispatch to PlaisteJ, thd Greenback candidate, con gratulating him on his election as Gov ernor of Maine.

The bear was also travelling in the same direction, and noticing this the first mentioned parties hurried along quite J iiveiy leanng mat tuey woum be too late for breakfast. Wright, being the fleetest, succeeded in getting ahead and jumped the creek, where he was on the opposite side from the bear, while Charley only got half way across, when he noticed Wright holding a double barrel shot gun on him with orders to halt unless he would agree to forever re nounce Democracy and a harty sup port to Garfield and Arthur. Kohn looked at the bear wishfully, but re ceiving no encouragement he struck out for tho bank on which iVright was standing at the same time promising all that was asked him.
