A young man had a severe fight with a grizzly bear in the neighborhood of San Andres, last week. Bruin attacked him and threw him down, so that he could not draw his pistol, but was able to draw his knife, which he used pretty freely on old bruin, and was shortly enabled to gain his feet, when he pitched in so bravely to his savage assailant, that the grizzly hurried off for a breathing spell. This was also an advantage to the young man which he so successfully employed as to be in a better condition to continue the fight. The armistice lasted but a short time; the grizzly was cautiously coming to renew the battle, when the young man, with knife in hand, although severely wounded, charged on the monster with a whoop and a yell, burying his knife in the animal’s neck. Which being more than he had reckoned on, and not at all agreeable, old grizzly turned tail and trotted off. Fairly beaten in a stand up fight of his own seeking. [Alta Californian.
