It was on a bright and' warm after- noon that au 'Indian might have been seen phi:Suing hid way as rapidly 36 tIte •nature of the country would permit, When, howYer, he cleared the low pall meto leaves Among which hp had join.- neyed, and gained the pine laud, his progressr. was ;. iess. impeded, and he moved OHL more rapidly. He was quite young, and there was something even boyish in hiS appearance. Itt his movements he -Showed such a power of endurance; and•there was a fearlessness in :hie,glance, ' which proved the spirit of unenhood was: fully his. His dress . „ , • was very -simple, consistnog 01 notiteng but moccasine, leggings, aud hunting - shirt, all of deerskins. His hair was cut differeat from the present manner of his tribe, none of it being left but the gallant scalping tuft after the an - agent manner of his race. A. knife ethck in his belt, with, the powder horn and pouch by 1is side; aud the rifle M his hand, was ell the arms he bore. The rapid, &aides both behind and on either side, showed that he hal appre-' hehded danger from different quarters, but lie speed was not diminished until passing through a small thicket, ho steed again on the pine land before a dozen of his tribe. They had started to their feet ou his sudden appearance and were anxiously listening -to the in- formation which in a few hurried words he gave them. Then instantly starting they began to move as rapidly as the young warrior had done before joining them. • Hardly had they left the, spot where they had rested, ere an Indian girl I aping from behind a tree, caem laughing to the young warrior with ti countenance which betokened full as- Sliranee of a hearty welcome. But the face of the chief answered not the joy of the girl. Astonishment, quickly fol lowed by sorrow, seemed to take pos- session of him. Hew has the dove dared to fly so far from her home?' he said. Does she not know that her enemies are abroad?' Can I fear anything with the eagle of nay tribe for a protector 2 Would the dove have aught b fear with the eagle for her guard 2' 'Ay!' exclaimed the chief, 'IMS the eagle could not save 4the-doie fotuthe grasp of the Neither, or the stiug of the serpent4 But rile clove can fly as well as the eagle,' said the girl. 1. Let us haste if there is danger.' And she sterted Witit a speed which ,bi(1 fair soon. to outstep the warriors, who were now ahead. The wives and families of these warriors were safely hicl in a larga hemmoclr, surrounded on three shies by sucli marshy ground as to be utterly accessible. The ham- mock itself was for it long distance too thick bo be penetrated except by a small winding path known only to theta - selves. To gain this before they were ogerialcen by a party of horsemeu al- ready on the trail of the yeuth was OIOW the only slinpe of theno and their ' The heart, of the young chief beat high with hope as looking at the beau- Ufal being' at his •side he perceeived that she wee olot in the least overcome either by fear or exertion. But his lips were pressed convulsively as the loud shout the horsemen raised mug in his ears as iley passed the spot where his party hall been lout eo lately reclining. The liaminocIr was just in sight. Ev- ery nerve was steained, but already tlie shouts of the pursuers, the trampling of their horses, and the clatter of their arms, sounded fearfully in 'the ears of the peer fugitieos. One .'cif the horse- men, bettor mounted than the rest, was much in the advance, and the sharp crack of his 'rifle 'sold that. he was, near enough to clothe work of death. , The young chief turned quickly around, apparently resolved to delay the advance of the party as bong as he MIS able' end thereby giise'a chalice to , sonie of his:tribe*for escaping.

When school boys, he and the writer were insepar- able companions, probably because we stood in snc,h holy awe of the gale. A. pair of mischievous black eyes would stampede us quicker than a big dog. One day I3ob was sent to neighbor Sliaw's to inquire about some straw for fihiint beds, and of course the writer went with, him. My.

"1 sup- pose so ; here are six besides the old. woman ; but I'd rather you ,would leave her if the girls will be enough. Take them and God bless you."

Death from 14.1.1 Untbrala. On Sunday evening the 241h ult„ Dr. W. H. Crihnore, the Atsistant House Surgeon in the Ninty-ninth St. Reception Heepital, 'called on a friend in company with Dr. Goelet. At about 6 p. no. they were returning home arm in arra, Dr. Gilmore holding his umb- rella be? thoframo in his left hand. The two 'Meters 'Lad reached the cor- ner of :Forty-fifth street and Ninth Avenue when they both slipped an the ice and fell together. De. Gillnaore fell in a sitting postuee, and his head WitiS thrown !violently forward, striking the point 01 0112 ribs of the umbrella, which pierced the tinder eyelid of the left eye and frail bone socket of the skuU, to treleing the -bierin.' Dr; Goisiet tbSe leughinglv, not knowing the accident that had befallen his friend. Dr. Gil- more slowly got up saying,: 11 Goelet, I have put out my eye," 'Dr. Goolet rose immediately and. led his friend to a neighboring 3a1oon au 1 bathed his bruised eye. After a short time, as De. Gilmore could see without difficulty, they both got into a, car and rode to the Reception Hospital, where Dr. Gilmore asked to be attended by Dr. R008a. A consultation was held and'a treatment recommended. The patient had the coustant attention ef Dr. aloosa, James Wood, and Eluhrer, but surgical skill failed in this strange case, awl the pa- tient died on the night of the 28th ult., of inflamation of the membrane of the brain. Dr. Gilmo.e was a young man, tweuty-eight years of age, and evinced mere that the average talent , for the profession he had chosen, anll had just graduated from the the University Modical College. The body of the de- ceased was yesterday morning removed by his relatives to Boston for inter- ment. Jannplii,,,t from. a Tritin Tiazn- idirea. An odd case of Somnambulism oc- curred on the River Davidsoo the other morning. - Ypon tlie train, en route from Milwaukee to Minneapolis, was a Mrs. Wright and two soils. The elder of the two, • aged sixteen years, fell asleep in his seat. After the train had left Weaver station, and while it was running twenty miles an hour, he arose in his sleep, and being Unnoticed., walked out the car door and off • the platforie. Assoon as the mother diecovered his ebseoce Otto conductor was inforinede and as the boy conld not be, found upon any of the cars, the train was stopped backed slowly to Weaver.

THE FEAE OF POVERTY, Another case of suicide, attempted by a female under nervous irritation, was less fortunate. A woman living an Otto spot became afflicted with a malady 9.,3 common and as fatal as consumption --fear of penury. net she had no good reason for this fear her neighbors knew, butit possessed her like a secret, and incurable disease. " I -can't bear it," she used to say "and some dayyon will see- mo over - the falls." Her neighbors laughed,. saying people who talk of suicide are in for length of life. But one day she leant off the rock at Cedar place. ,A brave young fellow named e ° Davis saw her slip irbut too far off to catch and draw her back. 'Thelall was used, to snicide,as everyone becomes by living at the falls, but had laughed so often at her threats, and come to look on them, so much as jokes that he was ready to do anything to save her life. But she was in the coils, beyond the reach of help? Gazing on her figure, as she bumped on the rocks and turned in the rush, he saw that ehe would pitcli against the ravine wall, some ten or twelve under the rock on •which he stood. Peering over thebank he sat a little shelf of earth, just broad enough for a man to light on, and no mere; he scrambled down moment ere the woman came rolling on, put out his hands to catch her, caught her slia,w1 and tore it from her body as she floated down, and. stared in horror as Otto woollen rag huug dangling in his grasp. The suicide had kept her pro- mise, and escaped from her imaginary poverty into eternal,sleep. YDT ANOTHER TRAGIC) STORY is that of a boat ' accident in which three Germans lost their lives. These men were boating in the 'evening above Ole ranids. Through neglignence they I:rifted dowh, and the boat capsized. All three were speedily • in the wash, each struggling for his, life.'
