Olil steel not thou my faith away
Not‘ tempt to doubt the trusting mind,
Let all that earth can yield decay,
Btit leave this heavenly gift behind;
Our life is but :1 meteor gleam,
Lit up amid surrounding gloom-—
A ilying; lamp, a fitful beam,
Qcnched in tiic cold and silent tomb.

Yet if, as holy men have said,
Tlzcrc lie I cyond that di'eai'_v l)Olll‘n(‘,

S0l'l1r‘.‘ region where the faithful dead
Eternally forget to mourn,

‘VI.~‘lCt)tll(‘. the scoff, the sword, the chain,
The burning wild, the black abyss-

] shrink not front the path of pain,
That endetli in it world like this.

But oh.’ ifall that nerves us here,
Wlien griefassails and sorrow stings,
Exist but in the shadowy sphere
OfFaiic_v’s wet-k iinagiiiings ; I’
ll’ liopes, thoiigli clir-rished long and deep, A
Be bold and baseless mockeries,
Then welcome that eternal sleep,
Which knowetli not of dreams like these.
Yet bush ! thy trout-led heart be still,
Reiiounce thy vain philosophy;
Like morning on the misty hill,
The light oftiulli will break on thee,
Go—soaich the pi'opliet's deatliless puge—-
Go—qu.*stion thou the radient sky,
And learn from them, mistaken sage!
The glorious words—“thou shalt not die!”

cabin, and spi'catlii'i__q terror throughout the
neigiiborliood. Vi’itliin a few hours after
their i'eti't-at, Cl_£_"llt men assembled from dif-
fci'ciit parts of the small settlement and par-
sued the enemy with great expedition.-
Among the most active and efficient of the
party were two brothers, Adam and Andrew
Poe. Adam was particulai'ly popular. In
Sll'(‘,llg‘lll, action and lutrdiliood, he had no
equal-—beiug finely formed, and inured to

sprung to his feet. Big Foot then ordererl
him to run for his toinabawk, which lay
ivitliiu ten steps, and kill the white man,
while he held him in his arms. Aduiii see-
ing his daiiger, struggled mauftiiiy to extri-
cate himself from the folds of the giaiit, bi.it
in vain. The lesser Iiidian .'.lppl'0tlCil(‘.tl him
with his uplifted toinuliawk, bttt .'-.daii'i
watched him closely, and as he was about
to strike,'gave him a kick so sudden and vi-
olent, as to knock the toniahawk from his
hand, and send him staggcidiig back into
the water. Big Foot uttered an excliiiiial
tion in ii tone ofdccp contempt; at the fail-
tirc of his companion, and raisin,«_r his voice
to its liigliest pitch, thundered out several
words in the Indian tongue, which Adani
could not uiidcrstand, but stipposcd to be a
direction for the second attack. The
lesser Iudiaii now again approaclied, care-
fully shunning Adani’s heels, and inakirig
inany motions with his tomaliawk, in order
to deceive him as to the poitit wliere the blow
would fall. This lasted l'oi'sevci'alscconds,
until a t.litu'i-"ci'iiig exclamation from Big
Foot, compelled his companion to sti°ikc.—
Such was Adain’s dexterity and vigilance,
liowever, that he maiiagcd to receive the_to-
mtihmvk in a glaiiciiig direction upon his
left wrist, wounding him deeply but iiotdis-
abliiig him. He now made a suddeii and
desperate effort to free liiniself from the
cirins of the gizintaiid succeeded. Iiist-untly
snatching up a rifle (for the Iiidiaii could
not venture to shoot for fear of littrtiiigz his
companion) he shot the lesser Indian fbro’
the body. But scarcely had he done so
when Big Foot arose, and placing one hand
upon his collar and the other upon his hip,
pitched him ten feet into the air, as he liim-
self would have pitched a child. Adam fell
upon his back at the edge of the water, but
before his aiitagonist could spring upon him,
he was again on his feet, and stung with
rage at the idea of being handled so easily,
be attacked his gigatttic ziiitagoiiist with a
fury wliich for a time coinpcnsatctl for info-
riority of strciigtli. It was now a fair fist
fight; between them, for in the liurry of the
sti'iigglc neitlier bad leisure to draw their
,kiiives. Adam’s superior activity and ex-
periciice as a pugilist gave him great advan-
tage. The Indian struck uwkw';ii'dly, and
finding‘ liimsclf rapidly droppiiig to leeward,
be closed with his aiitagoiiist, and again
litirled him to the groiuid. They quickly

all the perils of the woods. They had not
followed the trail far, before they became‘
satisfied that the deprct.lat:ors were conduct"-
cd by Big Foot, a renowned chiefof the?
‘i’Vyai:(lott tribe, who derived his name from‘!
the lll]l1lCllSC size of his feet. I-lis lieiglitg
considerably cxccedetl six feet, and his:
sticiigtli was l'C])l‘-‘:SCIllCCLl as I'I8l‘Clll(3:ll1.-—-
He had also live brotlicrs, btit little inferior
to liiinsclfiii size and courage, and as they
,,_.,,,,,,,.,,n__,,_ ........ ;.. .,...npan_y, they were the
terror of the whole country. Adam Poe
was overjoyed attlie idea of incastiriiig his
Sll‘(3llglll wit;li that of so celebrated a chief,
and tirgred the pursuit with a kccnness which
soon bi'ouglit: him into the vicinity of the eti-
emy. For the last few miles, the trail had
led them tip the southern batik oftlie Ohio,
where the foot prints in the sand were deep
and obvious, but when within a few liuiidred
yards ofthe point at which the whites as well
as tbc__Iiitlians ivcre in the habit of crossing,
it suddenly divei'g;cd from the stream, and
stretched along a rocky l‘lt.l_,Q'C, forming an
obtuse angle with its former direction. Here
Atlani halted for a moment, and directed
his brotlicr and the other young men to fol-
low the trail with proper caution, while he
himsclfstill :lLll’lCl'CLl to the rivet‘ path, which
he led tlii'ott_g'li the clusters of willows direct-
ly to the point where he supposetl the. enemy
to lie. IIéii'iiig e.\’ati'iiiied the priniiiig ofhis
gun, he crept cautiously tlii'ot.igli the bushes,
until he had a view ofthe point of emliark-
ution. Iicrc lay two canoes, empty and ap-
pareiitly deserted. Being satisfied, howev-
er, that the Indians were close at liund, be
relaxed iiotliing of his vigilaiicc, and quick-
ly gained a jiittiug cliff, uhicli hung itnmc-
diateiy over the canoes. I‘ICf1l‘ln_t_[ a low
inurmur below he peered cautiously over,
and behold the object ofhis search. The
gigeiiitic Big Foot lay before him in the
shade ofa willow, and was talking in a low
deep tone to another warrior, who seemed
:1 more pigmy by his side. Adam cautious-
ly drew back, and cooked’ his gun. The
mark was faii°—-—thc distance did not exceed
1.0 feet, and his aim was uiiei'i'iiig;. Raising
his rifle slowly and cautiously, he took a
steady aini at Big‘ Foot’s breast, and drew
the trigger. IIis gun flashed. Both Indi-
ans spraiig: to flit-‘.ll' feet with a deep inter-
jectioii of surprise, and for a single second
all three stared upon each other. This in-
activity however was soon over. - Adam was
too much hiunpcrcd bytlicbuslies to retreat,
and setting his life upon the cast ofa die, he
spruiig‘ over the bush which had slieltercd
him, and suninioning all his powers, leaped
down the precipice and alighted upon the
lireust of Big Foot with a shock which bore
him to the earth. At the mommit ofcriutaet,
Adam had also thrown his right: arm around
the neck of the smaller Iiidiau, so that all
three came to the erirtli togctliei‘. At that
inonicnt a sharp firing was heard among
the bushes above, aiiiiottiiciiig; that the other
parties were ciigageil, but the trio below
were too busy ‘to attend to any thing btit
tliemsclvcs. Big Foot; was for an instant
stuiiiicd by the violence of the shock, and
Adam was enabled to keep them both down.
But the exertion necessary for that purpose
was so ,«__{reat that he had no leisure to use
his knife. Big Foot quickly recovered, and
without t1tIClT)pl.lll,2‘ to i'ise,wi'apped his long
arms around Adam’s body, and pressed him
to his breast with the crushing force ofa
Boa Constrictor l

Adam, as we have already reinai°ked,was
a powerful man, and had seldom encoun-
tered his equal, but never had he felt an em-
brace like that of Big Foot. I-Ie instantly

rolled into the river, and the Sll'llgglC con-
tinued with uiiabated fury, each attciuptiiig
to drown the other. The Indian being tin-
used to such violent exertion, and having
been much injured by the first shock in his
stomach, was unable to exert the same pow-
ers which had given sttcli a decided superi-
ority at first; atid Adam, seizing him by
ire scalp lock, pttt liislicad under watci‘,
: id held it there, until the faint sti’tt_t_:gle.s of
the Iucliuu
was di'owncd,‘wheii llCl'Clt1!s'._C(,l his hold and

attempted to draw his knife. The Indian,

liowcver, to use Adain’s own expression,

“ had only been ptissuiiiiiig !” He instantly

iegaincd his feet, and in his turn put his ad-

versary under. In the struggle, both were

carried out into the curreiit beyond their

depth, and each was compelled to relax iiis

hold and swim for his life. There was still

one loaded rifle upon the shore, and each

swam hard in order to reach :._t, but the Iii-

diari proved the most export Slvlnllltcl‘, and

Adam seeing that lie sliotililbc too late,

turned and swam out into the sircaiii, inten-

ding to dive and tliits frustrate his eueniy’s

intention. At this instant, Andrew, having
heard that his brothel‘ was alone in a strugg-

gle with two Iiidiiius, and in great; danger,

ritii up liastily to the edge oftlic bunk above,

in order to assist him. Another white man

followed him closely, and seciiig; Adam in

the river, covered with blood, and swiinniiiig

rapidly from the shore, mistook him for an

Indian and fired upon him, wouiidino; him

(lilllgCl‘0llSly in the sliottldc-r. Adam turiied,
and seeing his brotlier, called loudly upon

him to “ shoot the big Indian upon the

shore.” Andi'ew’s gun, however was empty,

liaviiig just been discharged. Fortunately,

Big Foot had also seized the gun with which

Adam had shot the lesser Indian, so that;
both were upon an equality. The contest
now was who should loud first. Foot
poured in his powder first, and drawing his

ramrod ot.tt of its sheath in too great 21 bur-

ry, threw it into the river, and while he ran

to recover it, Andrew gained an advaiitage.

Still the Indian was but a second too late,

for his gun was at his shouldc-r when An-
di'ew’s ball entered his breast. The gun

dropped from his liauds and he fell forward
upon his face on the very margin of the ri-
ver. Andrew, now tlltll‘ll1Ctl for his brother
wliowas scarcclyable. to swim,t.lirewdown his
gun and rushed, into the river in order to
bring him aslioi'e—-but Adam, more intent
upon securing the scalp ofBig Foot asa
trophy, than upon his own safety, called
loudly upon his brotlier to leave him alone
and scalp the big Indian, who was tiow en-
dcavoring to roll himself into the water,
from :1 roinantic desire, peculiar to the Iii-
diau ivarrior, ofsecuriiig his scalp from the
enemy. Andrew, ltowever, refused to obey
and iiisisted upon saving the living before
attending to the dead. Big Footilll ll“-‘
mean time, had succeeded in reacliing the
deep water before he expired, and his body
was borne oil’ by the waves witliout being
stripped ofthc ornameiit and pride ofan Iii-
dian warrior.

Not ii man ofthc Indians had escaped.
Five of Big Foot’s brotliers, the flower of
the \Vyandott: nation, had accoinpanied him
in the expedition, atid allpcrislicd. It 15
said that the news of this calamity threw the
whole tribe into mourning. 'I‘llCll‘l‘CD1(ll:l(-

PEllPlE'1‘U.\L Yoti'rii.—[ saw lately, in a
newspaper, the death of “Miss Elizabctli
B———.” The liistory of this sin_t:tilar
intlividual,p'.-is so cxti'aordinary that I can-
not forbear conimtiiiicating such portions of
it to the ladies of my accquaiiitanec, as
come within recollcctioii. It has the advan-
ofbciug aiitheiitic, it not ll'ii(:l'CSilll-5!‘-—fI)l‘
the facts which I shall relate are notorious-
ly true.

Ifyou have ever stopped at the little old
ante-i'cvolutioi'iury city ofA , on your
pil._;;‘rini:ige to Mount Vernon, perhaps I
can recall her to your rccollectioii, by her
small, light", perpendicular form, her taste-
ful dress, her girl-like trip, her laugliiiig
blue eyc,goldcu ringlets, smooth, delicate-
ly tinted cheek, coral lips, pearly teeth,
rounded neck, small liandsome. feet, slim
waist, beautiful bust, graceful motion, per-
fect mouth, aiid—-—iii short‘, I have no doubt
you fell in love with her. I tliiuk I saw
you one day, standing tipon Newtoii’s steps
watching her little form as it flitted in and
out of the shops in Iiiiig Street, and heard
you say she was more like ai'caIs_vlpl1 than
any thing you had ever seen.

‘Veil, sir, if I had told you that this little
f..tii'y was seventy-five _vears,old, you would
not have believed but I was jokiiig‘: but
uevertlielcs, I should have spoken nothing
btitthe naked truth. Long before the rev-
olutioiiary’ wai'—oh, she nittst have been
older, for at that time she was belle of W31-
liamsbttrg, the toast of Norfolk, and the
barbacuc‘ of all that part of Virginia. Col.
H.wliom Mrs. H. allows to be 65 years old,
told me that when a boy, his tinclc, old Wm.
II. of Kingaiid Qt.iecn,was near getting into
a duel on licr account, with Major S. who
died some years ago of old age. In fact,
there is no telling how old she was-bet‘
origin is not recorded. I.-ike that of the

{_

My good sir, she must have been more than
seventy-five when you fell in love with her

At the capture of Cornwallis, she was in
love with it young niidshipman of the Brit-
ish nnvy, by the mime of Gimbol, who made
a narrow escape by jumping into the James
river. After this, she remained single, in
spite of various offers from several genera-
tions of men, down to the present time.
Many are the hearts and souls, which like
Hajji Baba’s, have become roast meat for
her sake. But the citadel of her affections
remined firm. In Vain was the raw recruit
and the old veteran brought against it--—tlio
wall was closed up with the ‘English dead.-’
Her heart was in the bottom ofJames’ river
with Thomas Gimbold.

But the most melancholy part of her-
deatb is, that the mystery of petual rIjuven-
csceiice has died with her. The whole case
clearly proves that a woman can keep a
secret ; and it establishes beyond doubt that
she can make scientific discoveries. Nay,
more, it proves that a woman can act upon
principle, for bad she disclosed her secret
of eternal youth, the world would have been
turned upside down. In the history of a
woman, an epoch, dreadful to imagine,
would have arisen. B

We Slloultl not t.henceforth,liave been able
to distinguish our grand mothers, whom we
may not marry. \Ve should have fallen in
love with our great aunts. The old ladies
having more art; than the young, would have
bad a decided advantage over them. A
queen of May, might have had her great
grand inotliers, for maids of honor. \Ve
should have had no respect for the aged.
A bachelor, who had no particular fancy
for octogenarians, would have been obliged
to pray the gods for help to enable him to
distiiiguisli them,and strength to resist their
charms. \Vheii he thought himself the
happy bridegroom of blooming nineteen,
he would suddenly have found himself the
ttiifortunatc step father of five successive

geiieiotions. But I will not dwell on the
picture. It is suflicieiit, that Miss Betsey

had the skill to discover, the constancy to
preserve so daiigeroiis asecret, and she had
her reward. She flourished in eteriial youth.

PI-IILOSGPI-IY 8:. INDEPENDENCE.
“You can’t_make me believe that folks
who have. their five thousand dollars a year
zin’t happier than I am,” said farmer Jones
to his neighbor Bond. “‘VVcll, then, I
sliaii’t try,” said iieiglibor Bond, very quick-
ly knocking the ashes ottt of his pipe, and
wiping his mouth for a. di'auglit_ of cider;
“ if any man likes to think Providence has

dealt over hard with him, he may have the
comfort of it for all

me.” “There is no
«rotting i'oun'd you, neighbor Bond,” said

rs

farmer Jones : “but - tell me now, honestly,

shouldn’tyou be willing to leave off work-
ing, and take fifty thousand dollars, if it
were offered to you 1"

A “Very like I might
-—for as Aunt Betty says, ‘there is a great

deal of human iiattire in man ;’ but I hope
the temptation won't come in my way—for

I shouldn’t be as happy man as I am now.’

“You wouldn't be obliged to work then,
iieiglibor.” “No, and if I was not obliged

to work I s‘.iouldn’t work; and then I'm
sure I shouldn’t be contented. I have had

abit of experience this way, Mr. Jones;

though I was not over and above rich. l’ll
tell you my experience. Dick Brown and
I (you know rich Dick Brown) were boys

togcther—a couple of as poor and merry
devils as ever capcred to ‘Yankee Doodle.’

Dick and I never had btit one fight, though
we were always together, and that Aunt
Betty has often told me, was all owitig to
the sinful upliftings of my nature. A sick
gentleman came to our house on horseback
and father told one of us boys to go to the
tavern and buy some gin for him. The
ta‘. cm was three quarters of a mile off, th¢—
road lay tliro’ a pokerish bit of Wood‘,

and it was beginniiig to be dark. My
brother Jim had had a parcel of ‘raw-head-
and bloody —bone’ stories told him, and he
didii’t altogether like the notion of going.
You must know, neighbor Jones, that man
and boy, I have always been over and a-
bove willing to be brave by proxy, as they
call it. So I says to Jim, looking as fierce
as it bullet: all the time, ‘now, -‘Jim, nn’t
you ashamed of yourself to be scared ?—I
had just as lief go through that ‘ere wood,
as to go to bed.’ My father laughed, and
looked sort of mischievous, I thought, ‘Will
Will, suppose you go then,’ said be. He
might just as well have shot me dead as to
have said them words—Biit thinks I to my-
self, ‘Jim ’ill crow and Dick I’ll laugh——so I
may as well stand to my word.’ It was
bet a boy’s motive, neighbor Jones; but if
you will show me a man who was never
governed byjust such ametive, in the way of
politics, business, &.such like, I will tell you
that man is one in five hundred. Well, ofl'I
scainpcred barefoot, over the hard, frosty
ground, seeing a witch on every black stump
and a gust sii every busli—I bought my gin,
and was back to father’s as quick as a pn-
tent shuttle. I gtiess the gentlemen knew
how the case stood—foi'he took o_ut a four-
pence and gave it to me with a smile.--My

quarrel with Dick Brown was about this
four-pence. I tell you ‘money has its evils.
The first money I ever got made me iii-
solent. I showed Dick my four-pence, and
called him a poor-rag-muflin.

“Dick knocked me down, and we didn't
speak for a fortnight. “'6 made up after-
wards; and Dick often went with me to

look at the silver bit; I had locked up in
my little box. Dick and I went to pren-

world, and began to look upon a our-peu-
