INDIAN , GRATITUDE.

, Not many year_s~'-after the county of Litchfield,
began to be settletlgby the English, a stranger In-
dian came one (IQ into an Inn in the town of
Litchfield in the dusk of the evening, and reques-
tetljtlie hostess to’ furnish him with some drink
and supper. At the same time he observed, that
he could pay foi',neitl'ier, as he had had no suc- ;
cess in hunting ;‘. but prom_ised payment as soon
as he should meet with better fortune. The host-
ess refbsed him both '.li'e"‘driiik and the supper;
Called him a lazy, drunken, good for nothing fel-
low; and told him, that she did not work so hard
herself, to throw away her earning upon such
creatures as he was. A man, who sat by, and
observed that the Indian, then turning about to
leave soinhospitable a place, shewed by his coun- ,
tenance, that he was strfferiiig very severely from
want and '.vcariness, directed the hostess to sup-
ply him what he wished, and engaged to pay the
bill himself. She did so. ‘When the Indian had
finished his supper, he turned to his benefactor ;
thanked him; and assured him, that he should
remember his kindness, and whenever he was a-
bie would faithfully recompense it. For the pre-
sent he observed he could only reward him with
a story ; which iftlie hostess would give him leave,
he wished to tell. The hostess whose compla-
cency had been recalled by the prospect of pay-
ment, consented. The Indian addressing him-
self to his benefactor, said, ‘ I suppose you read
the Bible.’ The man assented. ‘ V.Vell,’ said

v the Indian. ‘ the Bible say, God made the world;
and then he took him, and looked on him, and

say, ‘It’s all_1Iery good.’ Then he made light;
and took him, and looked on him, and say, It’s
all very good.’ Then he made dry land and wa-
ter, and sun and moon, and grass and trees ; and
took him, and looked on him, and say, ‘It’s all
very good.’ Then he made beasts, and birds,
and fishes ; and took him and looked on him, and
say, ‘It’s all very good.’ Then he made man ;
and took him, and looked on him, and say, t It’,-
all very good.’ Then he made wonrztii, and took
him, and looked on him, and he no dare say one
such word.’ The Indian, having told his story,
wit lidrew.
some years after, the man, who had be friend.
st‘. him, had occasion to go some distance into
the wilderness between Litclifield, then a,frontier
settlement, and Albany, is here he was taken pi-",5.
oner by an Indian scout, and carried to Canada,
VVhen he arrived at the principal settlement of
the tribe, on the Southern border of the St. Law-
rence, it was proposed by some of the captors that
he should he put to dea'.li.-—-During the consulta-
tion, an old Indian woman demanded that he
should be given up to her that she might; adopt
him in the place of a son, whom she had lost in‘
the war. He was accordingly given to her; and
lived through the succeeding winter is her fami.
ly ; experiencing tlic customary effects of savage
hospitality. The following summer as he waga,
work in the forest alone, an unltnown Indian came
up to him, and asked him to meet him at a place
which he pointed out, upon a given day, The
prisoner agreed to the proposal, but not without
some apprehensions, that mischief was intended
Iiim. During_ IIIB interval, these apprehensions
increased to such a degree as to dissuade him, ef-
fectually, from fulfilling his engagement, soon‘
after the same Indian found him at his work a-
again; and very gravely reproved him for not
performing his promise. The man apologized,
3W1"-Wi“‘dlY €“°"‘5hs but in the best m'anner in his
power. The Indian toldhim that he should be
satisfi-:d, if he would meet ‘him at the same place
on a future day ; which he named. The man
promised to meet him, and fulfilled his promise.
Wlien he arrived at the spot, he found tlie Indian
provided with two muskets, ammunition for them-,
and two knapsacks. The Indian ordered him to
take one of each, and follow him, fihc direction
of their march was to the south. 'I""ie man fol-i
Iowed, without the least knowledgebf what he
was to do, or whither he was going ; but conclu-
ded,, that, if the Indian intended him harm he
would have dispatched him at the beginning, and
that at the worst he was as safe where he was, as
he could be in any other place. Within a short
time, therefore, his fears subsided; although the
Indian observed a profound and "mysterious Si.
leiice concerning the object ofthe expedition. In
the day time they shut such game as came in their
way; and :at night kindled a fire by which they
slept. After a tedious "journey of many days,
they came, one morning to the top of an emi-
1'K'flf36, Presenting a prospect ofa cultivated coun-
try in which was a number of houses, The In.
i,’.'Ii.lII asked his companion whether he knew the
rzround. He replied eagerly that it was Litchfield,
His guide then after reminding him, that he had
so many years before relieved the wants of a fam.
islring Indian, at an Inn in that town, subjoined,
‘ I that Indian ; now I pay you—.g9 home} Hay.
org said this, he bade him adieu ; an_d the man
joyfully returned to his own house.

SUPERNATURAL WARNING.
A young gentleman, by the name of C——-,
was, some years ago, residing with a clergyman
in the north of England. for the ptirpose of com-
pleting his education. He was heir tcfa large for-'
tune, particularly amiable, ofa lively disposition,
gay in his manners, and entirely free from any
taint of superstitious belief. He was strong and
healthy, and very unlikely, in any manner, to give
credit to the workings of his imagination, or to
believe in dreams. One morning, however, at
breakfast, his haggard and pale looks, and his
thoughtful manner, attracted the attention of his
friends, who were accustomed to see him anima-
ted and healthy ; and upon their pressing him to
account for this sudden alteration, he confessed
that he had, during the night, had a dream, which
had made so strong an impression upon him, that
he could not drive it from his thoughts. He said,
that he had seen aryoung woinan enter his room
softly, with a light in one hand, and a knife in -

him, btit upon his resistance, she had disappeared.
He then described her person and dress, both of
which, he said, were so deeply impressed upon
his memory, that they never could be eff-aced.
His,_friends_ treated the matter lightly, and en-
deavored to ridicule him for giving so much cred-
it to a dream ; and Mr. C himself, as if a-
shamed of his weakness, tried to banish it from
his ihouglits. Several months passed away, and
he resumed his usual gaiety of manner ; every
thing appeared forgotten; and when hi-: dream
intruded itselfupon his recollection, he laughed at-
hims___elf for having ever thought of such a trifle.

Y'{;g§s.liad elapsed, and Mr. C having come
into the possession of a large property, proposed
to an intimate friend to visit the continent. They
left England together ; and after having travelled
through most of the countries in Europe, were
returning home in the autumn of A long
and tedious day’s journey brought them very late
one evening to a retired village on the borders of
Hungary ; there wgpbut one inn in the place, and
that, from its appearance, did not promise them
very comfortable accommodation. However, they
had no choice; it was toolate to proceed, and
they alighted. There was nothing remarkable
in their reception, they were proceeding to the
apartment which was allotted to them, when Mr.
(3 suddenly stopped short, and uttered a
scream of horror ; his friend ran to his assistance,
surprised at an emotion for which herconld not
account, but Mr. C--—- having closed the door,
related the circumstances of the dream which had
made so much impression upon him some years
before, adding, at the same time, tliat,tbe female
"servant who had lighted them up stairs, was the
same person, both in face, appearance, and dress,
who had appeared to him in his vision. The
sudden and unexpected recollection of a circum-
~starice which had been so long forgotten, could
not fail to agitate Mr. C exceedingly ; butas
there was nothing suspicious in the manners of
tbeinliabitants of the inn, the friends retired to
rest, having first taken care to fasten the door,
andplace their pistols near them.

Overcome by the fatigue of travelling, they
were soon both asleep ; but Ml'..C awaking
saddenly, beheld, to his extreme horror, the same
woman, standing over him, with a light in one
hand, and a knife in the other, having the blade
directed towards his breast, apparently about to
strike. In his agony of horror,..:;he uttered a
scream, which awoke his friend, who springing
4 quickly‘ from his bed, was just in time to catch her

arm.

 

. . '_ MILLEDGJ.-:v1L?t.is, _Dec. 7.,
‘ A melancholy occurrence took place-iii the vi-
cinity ofthis town, a few dayssince. A man by
the name of Leander Cuthburt, a native of Sche-
nectady, New-York, put aperiod to his existence

From the information we have received con-
‘ coming this poor creature, we are authorized in
' saying, that be was of good ‘connections and had
‘ been well educated. His father, a man of easy
' 'drtune, and which he had acquired by honest in-
’ istry in the boot making line, fond of his busi-
- ss, forced his son to learn and follow it; but to
T-.ich the youth’s pride could never become re-
‘ciled. Love had, as he grew to manhood, en-
~;» * ..:l his bosom; and though the pretty black-ey~
. ;% ffarriet, (his mistress-) listened attentively to
. is .'=:.ipassioned talr-_,cruelly told him at last, she
~ would unite her fate to his, while he pursu-
‘ menial calling of boot making !’ His fa-
Tspleasure and fortune, were then.-‘weiglied

to the delusive influeiice of his earlier hopes ; and
burning with fresh devotion, forgetful of past in-
juries, Leander oner: inure sought the home of
his birth, the mistress of his affections.

It was evening wiireii he arrived in the vicinity
of 3:'clier-ectady. The night was dark, and por-
te ntous of a stoi'm—‘-(How ominous of his fate l)
and, save when the wanin;_.; moon peeped from
behind a cluster ofprotracting clouds, fiat a ray of
light cheered his lonely w-.ry.——Accustomed, how-
ever, to each avenue wl.-ich led to the village,
Leander found no considerable difficulty in reach-
ing the residence of his mistress—-it was illumina-
ted ! Mirth and revelry from within, threw theirn.
nited sound upon the ear of our wearied traveller.

ere he died, had become a bankrujit by indorsing
a paper-—that Harriet, when she wrote for his
return, had not learned the state. of his af‘fairs;
and that the moment this fact revealed itself, she
yielded to the suit of a young mr:rchant, who had,
during Leander’s absence, paid her his homage.
After visiting the grave of his ancestor, and
passing a few melancholy hours with some of his
old friends, Cuthburt took hisideparture, and once

FROM THE BOSTON RECORDER.

Ben/‘/it q/"rr]n'ove'2ig sz'r.'.—-Tile duty of'adminis-
teriiig counsel and reproof to persons of irreli—
gious character is one of the most tliflicult, but if
performed with discretion, may be productive of
the happiest consequences. Tlrere is reason to
believe, that this duty is much neglected by chris-
tians, and although I would by no means justify
every method of address which has beer. adopted,
or even too frequent appeals to the moral sense
of those who are pursuing a course of transgres-
sion ; yet I earnestly wish that the importance of
greater _/izit/gfzu'1zes.9 in teproving the ‘ eril works
of darkness,’ as well as counselling the unwary,
and alarming the secure sinner, were impressed
upon my brethren. If you think the following
anecdote may be productive of this tendency, I
doubt not that it will afford you pleasure to insert
it in your paper.

As I was not long since travelling in the stage
from Boston to Providence, my ears were much
offended by the profanity of one of the passen-
ger‘s,’fiyghose appearance, at first sight, had been
that oififgentleinan. For some time I remained
‘silent, thinking a reproof might be unseasonable,
and that by offering my advice, or attempting to
reason with the person, I might subject myself to
the censure of disregarding the Saviot1r’s caution
....‘ cast not your pearls before swine.’ At length,
however, after having made two or three stops,
each of which evidently rendered the man more
talkative, and consequently the more plofane. I
could no longer forbr air; but calling his attention
a little aside, I spoke to him in a low voice, re-
minding him. that some of his expressions, I ap-
prehended, were not agreeable to all in the stage,
and requested him, that he would restrain his fre-
quent oaths, and other profane expressions. He
rmmediarely adopted the tone of resentment, and
poured forth a volley of abusive and hlasphemous
language, to which I made little reply.

Two days afterwards I took passagti in 8 Pack‘
ct for New-York;-—and to my surprise and dis-
appointment, among a large number of passen-
gers, I observed the tier who had given me so
much unhappiness in the stage. I-le very soon
took his birth, appearing exhausted and worn out
by resent scenes of Eli.-;Slpall0l'l. 1 was much dis-
pleased and disgusted with the conduct of the

 

Lcompany towards the \\t'etchet'I man; for after

dining, having the table spread with liquors, Stc.“

to add to their merriment, they took him fr'pp':i
his b_i_rth, placed him in tbecircle, and made lijiii
their sport, until they were obliged to return l}:.Il‘fl
to the care of his servant, who, as travelling at-
tendant, appeared to be his holy friericl. The _
next morning I heard in the Ljmidst, a burst of
ridicule, that ‘ our old friend was sick.’ Although
I was aware ofthe occasion of his sickness, I went-
to him, made some inquiries, expressing my syru-
pathy, and offering him any friendly oflices in my
power. The poor man not having taken any
thing of an intoxicating nature during the night,
hadregained the use of his reason, and at once
recognized me. Bursting into tears, he said—-
‘Ibeg you sir, to desist,’ ‘ I recollect you too
well ;’--and then m_t-ntiuned his uncivil labgu‘,ige'
in the stage. I replied that I recollected -the Eir-
cumstarrce to which,he zilluded, but that 
qually ready to lrelpliirn in distiess.j _
ing coals of fire gm my head,’ he rejo' V... l1"iV~f
ever, persisted ; and in a fi:w hours li=,_tii';\_T"zrs qi’rire"-
restored, and immediately‘ seemed défiirous to,’at-
tach himself to my society, and so coiitinuetl (lir-
ing the remainder of the passage. Just lief-fie
our arrival at New-York, he requestedeine to.'_-ep '
with him into the state room, to which with some
reluctarice I consented. I '
he addressed me by stating the acliniration,‘ ‘’
which he had viewed the disposition I had mani-
fescd, adding that he would give all his possds.
sioiis, could he obtain the same: btit he was per-
suaded, that it was something more tlzun /iuman,€:j‘c,
I interrupted him by saying that the dispositidn
I had rirariifested. was not peculiar to myself, but
that it was possessed by every one, who had been
so happy, as to imbibe the spirit of the religion
oftlie Bible. I then recommended to him tile
gospel, as containing that invaluable treasure, for
which he was willing to make so great a sacrifice,
I'spake of its frceness, and of its applicableness
to human condition. He listened with an appa-
rent adniiraiion. He then proceeded to give me
a brief, but very interesting sketch of his life,
in -which he acknowledged the faithful and ten-
der instructions of his mother, and other advanta-
ges of his early life ; but used many expressions
of deep penitence on account of the sinful course
of life he had since pursued, concluding with re-
questing me to pray with him. I uillt son}: hes-
itation on account of the peculiar Cll‘CllIn$l..‘.l‘lC€S‘r
of my situation, complied. I Being about to leave
him, be detained me, and with an unspeakable‘
expression of cnuptenance, he said, ‘ I feel that I
am a new man .’ and you, sir, I shall ever regard
as having been my greatest benefactor.’ He then
put his liand in his pocket and thence taking his
pocketbook, opened it, which being filled with
bank notes, he told me to reward myself. I pro,-
fessed my ignorance of the meaning of his pro-
posal—-told him, that I wished no other rr=zum'tt’
than the hope of ..his everlasting benefit. Thus
utterly rejecting his proposal, once more mt-hing
into tears, he took a twenty dollar bill, and put-
tingit into my hand, said -‘ if you -will not receive
any thing as a debt, accept at least this as a token
of my gratitude.’ ' ’ B. F. F.

 

A? «word in scason.——A profane coachman, point-
ing to one of his horses, said, to a pious travel-'
ler, ‘ That horse knows when I swear at him.’-...
‘ Yes,’ replied the traveller, ‘ and so does one (:-
bo-cc.’ The coachman seemed to feel the reproof,
and became immediately silent. .

From the Den of His Most Worshipful Highness,
the Prince of Letters.

The following case as been submitted to us
for consideration :
The humble petition of Souivn and others,
tilietviiig-— that VVOUND bath, at sundry
times, been in the habit-of violating the rules pre-
scribed by your Most \/Vorshipful Highness, by ar-
rogzrting to himself a privilege, which, ifit belongs
to him, also belong to your most faithful subjects,

not permit us to use for ourselves to our_ great "
detriment, although he has been ofte equested
by us to,grant us permission. to use the same privi-
lege. Your petitioners regret the necessity

which obliges them to resort to these mea-

sures for relief from the oppression of one of
their fraternity, but when they look back to these
times when they all enjoyed the same privileges,
they are forced to adopt some measures for their
security. ’
Your petitioners are sensible that Woond strikes
the ear with much more harmony and grace than
the old fashioned l’Vou2zd, and liaving made many
experiments to ascertain the point, do give our
decided and uiianiuious opinion that Wound does
not make a more pleasing impression on the-
ear than Soond (Sound,) Roond(ftound,.) Mound
{Mound.) Bound (Bound,) Hoaud(I-found.) ' .
Yourpetitioncrs consider this as a great addi-
tion to the beauty of language. As the pronun-
ciation, now stands poets are often forced to spoil
a line of a great part ofits beauty and excellence
in consequence of this usurpation. All we wish

with Wound, and to enjoy the same privi'lege_s.

» V'Ve therefore pray that your ivlost I/Vorsl_1lpfUl
Highness would take this matter into considera-
tion, and order that justice shall be done Us in the
manner that shall best please your Higliiiess, and
your petitioners will'ever pray, 81c.
