At the time of tli t‘.Ll\'t3llt'i‘.l'C, Timotliy
Fciibody was the only white man that lived
within fifty miles oftliis place, and his was
the daiiiig spii'ittht‘it achieved it. In an at-
tack oii one ofthe frontier settlenieiits, ‘his
fiiniily had all been lll(‘.SS£';Cl"Ll by the mer-

deaths should be i'eveiiged. The better to
accomplish this dread purpose, be had re
moved to this solitary place, and constri.ic-
ted a. rude shelter, iirivliieh he dwelt till
the chilling blast ofwiuter drove him to the
homes of his fellow ineii, agaiii to return
and renew the contest when the spring had
aivukened nature into life and beauty. He
wasa man who possessed much shrewd cun-
ning, combined with a tliorougli kriowledge
of liidiaii habits, by which he had always
been enabled to avoid the sii-arcs of his
subtle enemies. Often when a party of
them had come to take him, he had escaped
their lures; and after having destroyed his
hot, on their rcturii liomev.':ird, St)lllC~Ui'illCll'

a descent on one of the small settleineiits,

path. He had proceeded but a short dis-
tance, before he liezird a sliarp report of a
rifle, apparently very near him, and which

The '-C.‘S(llLil.l()ll was quickly formed,
He hail gone but it few paces before he
d.scovere<l his inteiidetl victim, who had
just linisl ed leading his rifle. To stand
forth and boldly co:;fiont him, would give
the savage an equal chance, and if Tim
groved the met shot, the party on heiiritig
the repoit oftwo rifles at once, would be-
come alarmed and eoiiimciico [1 pursuit.
The cliarice was therefore two to one :1-
gainst him, and he was obliged to contrive
a way to make-the Indian lire first. Plati-
ting himself then behind a large tree he
took off his fox skin cap, and placing it on
the end ofhis rifle began to move it to and
fro. The Indian quickly discovered it, and
was not at it loss to recollect the owner of
the cap. Knov.'iiighow often he had elit-
dcd them, be resolved to despatch him at
once, and without gi=.'iiig liirii any notice of
his dangerous proximity, he immediately
raised his 1‘iflc,atid the contents were whiz-
zing through the air. The l‘ialljusttouch-
ed the bark of the tree, and pierced the cap,
wliiclirose suddeiily like the death spring
ofthe wearer and then fell amidst the busli-
es. The Indian like a true sportsman,
thinking himselfsuro ofliis victim, did not
go to pick up his game till he had reloaded
his piece, and dropping‘ it to the ground, he
was calmly preceding in the operation,
when Timothy as calmly stopped from his
hiding place, ex-3laiined——-“ Now you tariial
kritter, say ycrc prayers as fast as ever you
can.”
This was a short notice for the poor Iii-
dian. Before him, and scarcely ten paces
distant, stood the tall form of l’e:ibody as
inotionless as a statute——his rille at his
El".oiilder-liis finger on tho ti'iggci'——aii<i his
deadly aim firmly fixed upon him. He
was about to run, but he had no time to
ttirii round ere the swift winged messenger
had taken its flight ; his lirst moment was
his last-—tlie ball pierced his side, he sprung
six feet iiithe air, and fell lifeless on the
ground. A
No time was now to be lost. He imme-
diately proceedcd to strip the dead body
and to array liiiiiselfiii the accoutrements,
consisting of aliuiiting skirt, a pair of inoc-
casius or leggiiis, and the wiirnpuni belt and
knife. A little oftlie blood besmeared on
his suii-burnt countenance, served for the
red paint, and it would have taken :1 keen
eye, in the grey twiliglit and thick gloom of
the suri'otu'idiiig forest‘, to have detected the
counterfeit Itidian. Siliouldcriiig his rifle,

The bod_v oftiniotliy was safely deposi-
ted behind it fallen tree, where he could see
every motion, and hear every word spoken
in the circle. Here he had been abouta
lialfaii hour. ‘ Night had drawn her sable
curtaiii round the scene,’ or in ()l'i'.llcl' ivortls
it wits dark ; the niooii shone fitfully
through the clouds which almost covered
the hori1.on, only serving occ:isQii:'illy' to reti-
der the ‘ darkness visible.’ The Iiidiaiis
now began to evince manifest signs ofiiii-
pzitience for the retiirii ofthcir comrade.
They feared that a party ofthe whites had
followed them, and taken him prisoner;
and at last resol'-.*ed to go in search for him.
The plan, which was foi'liiiia‘tely overheard
by Tiiiiotliy, wasto put the captives into one
of the canoes under the care oflive of their
iiunibor, who were to secrete tlieinselves
iiiid in case of an attack massacre the pris-
oncrs, and go to the assistance ot"tlicirbretli-
reii. As soon as the main body had star-
ted, Pctiliody cautioiisly crept from his hi-
ding place to the water, and sliding in feet
foremost moved along on his back, his face
just above the surface, to the canoe which
contained the rifles of the guard. The pri-
ming was quickly removed from these, and
their powder horns emptied. He then went
to the canoe in which the captives were
placed, and gave them notice of their iiitcii-
ded rose-ue,:1t the same time warning them
not to show tliernselvcs above the guuwale
till they ivere in safety. He next nitli his
iiidian knife, separated the thong wliich
lic_ld the canoe to the shore intending to
swiiii ofl'witli it, till he had got for enough
to avoid obsei'vation, then got in and pad-
dled for the nearest place where a landing
could be effected. All this was but the
work of a moinent, and he was slowly
inovirig offfroiii the shore, as yet unobser-
ved by the guard, who little expected an
attack from this side; but uiifoi'tiiuatcl_y,
liisi-itic had been left behind, and he resolv-
ed not to pzirt with ‘ Old Pluiiipei',’ as he
called it, witlioiit, at least, one ell'ort to re-
cover it. He iininediately gave the cap-
tives notice of his iiiteution, and directed
them to paddle slowly and silently otit, and
in going past the licadlaiitl, to approach as
near as possiblc,aud there await his coming.
The guard by this time had secreted
themselves, and one of the number had
chosen the same place which Tiinotliy
himself had previously occupied, near which
He had
almost got to the spot when the Indian dis-
covered the riile, grasped it, and springing
upon his feet gave the alariii to his compan-
ions. Quick as tliought Tim was upon him
seized the rifle and wreiielied it from him
with such violence as threw him breathless
on the ground. The rest of the Indians
were alarmed, and sounding the war whoop,
rtislied upon him.
It was a standing iaxiiii with Timothy,
“ that a good soldier l'lC’v'l‘i' runs till he is
obligetlto,” and he now found that he should
be under the necessity of suiting his prac-
tice to his theory. There was no time for
delilieriition: he iiistsuitly knocked down
the "foremost with the btitt ofliis rifle and
bounded away through the thicket like a
startled door. The three remaiiiing Indians
made for the canoe in which their rifles
were deposited, already rendered liarmless
by the precaution of Timothy. This gave
him a good advantage, which was not alto-
gether unnecessary, as he was inticli eti-
cumbered with his wet cloths, and before
he reachcdhis goal, he could hear them
snapping the dry twigs close behind him.
The main body had got the alarm, and
were but a short distance from him when
he reached the headland. Those who were
nearest he did not fear, unless they came to
close action, and be resolved to send one
oftiieni to his long home before he leaped
from the precipice. “I’tsa burning shame
to wet: so tnuch good powder,” exclaimed
lie. “ I’ll have one more pop at the tar-
nal red skins.” 'I‘im’s position was quick-
ly arranged; his rifle was presented, his
eye glanced along the barrel, and the first
one that showed his head received its dead-
ly contents. _
In an instant, Tim was in the water nia-
king for the canoe. The whole party had
by this time come tip, and commeiiced a
brisk fire upon the fugitives. Tim stood
erect in the canoe, shouting in a voice of a
stentor, “better take c.-ire, ye’ll spoil the
skiff. Old plumper’s safe and you’ll feel
him yet, I tellyou I”
They were quickly lost in darkness and
taking a small circuit, effected a landing in
safety. Many a red maii’s life verified his
las threat, and Peabody lived to a good old
age, having often related to his friends and
iieighbors the adventure which gave to this
place the name of Pcabod’ys Leap.

Tiir-I Lons'i'i3it.—Amoiigst the nitm'erous
exainplcs given by Dr. Paley, of the won-
derful manner in which Nature contrives
to overcome diflicitlties, which at first ap-
pear insurmountablo tharc is perhaps none
more striking than the mode in which the
lobster is i'ele:1s'c-d from his case, when the
increasing size ofliis body wants more room.
In most animals the skin grows with their
growth. In seine animals, instead of a
soft skin, tliere is a shell; which adniits by
its form of gradual enlargement. Thus
the shell of the tortoise, which consists of
several peices, is gradually enlarged, at the
joinings of those pcices which are called
“sutures.” Shells with two sides, like
those oftlie muscle, grow ltigger by addition
at the edge, Spiral shells, as those of the
shall, receive this addition at their mouth.
simplicity oftheir admits of this; but the
lol)ster’s shell being applied to the limbs of
his hotly, as well as to the body itself, does
not admit of either of the modes of enlarge-
meiit which is observed in otner shells. It
is so hard that it cannot expand or streat'ch
ariil it is so complicated in its form that it
does not admit of being eiil-urged by adding
to its edge. How, then, was,tlie growth
of the lobster to be provided? ‘We have
seen that room could not be made for liirri
in his solid shell: was he then to be antin-
.'lllY fitted with ti new one’? Ifso rin‘othei'
tliliiciilty arises ; how was be to get otit of-
liis present confinement’! How was he to
open his hard coat, or draw his legs out
ofliis boots, which had become too liglit for
him? The works of the Deity are knowii
by cxpedients, and the provisions of his
power extend to the most desperate _ cases.
The case of the lobster is thus provided
for: at certain seasons his shell grows
soft. He swells his body ; Tl_|9_ Sccms QPC“
and the claws burst at the _]oints'. “lien
the shell thus becomes loose upon the body,
the animal makes a second effort, and by
:1 treinlilitig motion, a sort of spasm, casts
off his case. In this state of nakedness
the poor defeiieless fish retires to a hole in
the rocks. The released body makes 31
sudden gt-owtli. In about eight and forty
hours a fresh concretioii of humor takes
place all over the siirfacie of the body; it
quickly hardens; and tlitis a new shell is
formed, fitted in every part to the increas-
ed size of the body and limbs ofthe animal.

There is some probability that this mag-

will soon be recoiiiinciiced. The share
holders have, it is said, engaged to furiiisli
one lialfof the funds necessary for its coin-
pletion, and the other half, it is believed,
will be graiited by the British Parliaiuent.
The tunnel has been twice inuiitlated.-—-
'I‘lie first time it occurred, the disorder and
firiglitit caused among the workmen was
extreme. Neither Mr. Brunei nor his son
were there, but one of the supcrintc‘nding
ciigincers, ol'tlie name of Gritliths, pi-cserv-_
ed his presence of miiid,rallied the men, and
conducted them in safety to the opening
before the water had gained the summit of
the arch. In ‘:1 few minutes afterwards,
it was filled; , _ .
Afterrnaiiy fruitless endeiivors to close‘
the opening which had been made in the‘
e.\'.t.i'emit_v ol' the tunnel, the idea occurred
to Mr. Brunei, ofcovcring that part of the‘
river with a tarred sail cloth, and throwing
on it large quantities of clay, which the
pressi.ire of the water above forced into the
liole ; at the same time steam engines wert
at work, to carry oftlic water, The great-
est anxiety was manifested tlirougboiit
England to‘ learn the success ofthisiatteinpt
and daily accounts were pulilisjicd of its
progress. At last: ‘it was ‘perceived that
ground was gained ; the steam engine ever-
came the river when the tide was low, but
the rivet‘ resumed its superiority at high wa-
ter; atlast the river lost the latter advan-
tage,~and by little and little the tunnel \v:.is
eleard for a distance ofclght feet from its
stiiniiiit. It was then thought advisable to‘
profit by the space obtained with so much
difliculty, and enter into the tunnel in ;.
boat to cxiiniine the place where the acci-'
dent occurred. ~ '
Mr. Bruncl.being ill, his son, Isaii'ibitrd;
was selected to make this cxiiminatio'n.—-
Ashe decerided the stair-case, which led
to the tunnel, with Mr. grifilth and another
sub-engineer who was to accompany hiiiii
the workmen evinced apprebeiisioris, they
felt for their safety, by frequent exclania-
tions of God bless you gentlemen I’ At the
monienttluit Isaiiibartl was about to enter
the boat and was taking leave of his moth-
er, a young ninii spraiig forward and pre-
sisicd in sharing his danger, which after
somediliiculty, he was allowed to do‘.
The distance the had to pass was about
seven hundred feet. \Vhen they rcaclied
the bueklcr, ii large evnctiatioii was per-
ceived in the upper part, stopped in part by
tarred sail cloth and clay above alluded to,-
btit still siifficiciitly open to allow :1 ‘consid-
erable quaiitity of water to enter. They
took the dimensions of the opening, and
were drawing a sketch ofit on a piece of
wood, when Mr. Griffith stooping down to
Isanibard, said to him in awliispei‘, ‘the
water gains on us,’ ‘I know it,’ said Isaiii-'
bard, ‘wt-.’ll liiiisli arid go.’ At the same time:
the people at the niotitli of the tunnel had
perceived the water illCl'CZ1SCCl; Many of
then) threw tlienisclve into it swimming, to
warn them of their dangcl‘. Otliers were
calling to them through speaking trtinipets.
This noise was heard by theyoung m'at'i ‘who
had insisted on acccsmpaiiying; them‘ ; per-
ceiving that the distunce to the top of the
arch was but four feet, he sprang‘ up crying
‘let us go’ and striking his head against the
arch, fell down, ulisetting the boat and ex-
tiiigtiisliiiig the light they had with them.
On coming to the ‘sii’rfa'ce-, Isambard cal-
led to his cotnpaiiioiis, two answered him
and coiijured him to hasten ‘away, as the
water continued gaining on them Isimbard
plunged repeatedly to the bottom in search
of the other-, and at last brouglit him up.—-—
His friend again entreated him to think
only of himself, but he answered by beg-
ging them to assist him in placing his bur-
tlicii ’oti his sliottldeis. Animated by this
example’, they all now carried the body by
turns, on at last, with their heads every Ill-‘
staiit striking against the arch, again saw’
the light ofday‘. They had not ascended
halfway up the stair case when the water
reaclietl the top of the arch. The body
was _tlien examined. Isambard and his
friends had brought oiit_ a_ corpse; "l‘_li'e
unfortunate young man had fractured his
skull. _ . . . , .
Al'ter this accident, the steam érlgities
soon regained their superiorit_v, and the
works were i'e-commenced-. Some inontlis
had passed, when a second irruption took
place; _ This time Issimbiird was in the tun-
nel. He hnd just left the buckler and was

the cry of water! \|t1tCl‘l struck his car.
He sprung forward, and having. tioticetl
the extent of the _ disaster si.il’ticieiitly to

them to the mouth of the tuunel.—-
There, a glance nrouiid him, told
him that many were still ‘missiiig. He re-
entered the siiliterraiiean passage, with the
water up to his middle and guided by con-
fused niid smothered cries, perceived that

taking the ordinary passage to pass out of
