Uliscdkim. SAMVEL BRADY. I left Beavertown in the mail coach, at eleven o clock in the forenoon, for Poland in Tnjmbull county, Ohio, distant thirty eight miles. Directly on leaving Bridge water and crossing a small stream, on a neat bridge, we began to ascend a lon«*. steep hill, called Brady’s IliH. It reoel vc<lits name froxn an interesting border adventure, which occurred in ‘‘early times” n«ar its base Captain Samuel Brady was one of that band of brave men, who lived in the trying days of the American Revo lution, on the Western borders, exposed to all the horrors and danger of Indian war fare, and whose names shall bt, perpetua ted in history. He held a commission un der the Umtcd States, and for apart of the time commanded a company of ran ges, who traversed the forests for the pro tection < the frontiers. Ho was born in I V Uc * ear *758, and removed, probably .when Ti boy; into the Talley of the Mondngahela. At the pe nt of Am adventure he lived on' the Charter Greek, about .twelve miles below Port Pitt; a stream better known, how bmmn of modern- the significant name of mm6 > soon after the cl °? e , of the Indian war. A number of F« r « published in tlid Blalrsville Xfctrder, a year or two since, detailin'*. hm adventures, which would make a mo£ interesting volume. His father and abro tber were both lndians ' I recei ved the particulars of the following story from one of the passengers in the coach, who had resided in the country ; sevefal years and often heard it related., Samuel Brady, the herd of the following adven r Vi vT" ftet in height, with hght blue eyes, fair skmapd dark hair.—- He was remarkably, StraightV an athletic, hold vigorous inured to ;ri e , a nd hardships of a frontier n very obnoxious to if j - ndian , s i / rom Ins numerous successful •attack on their war parties, and from shoot mg them during his hunting exemsions, whenever they crossed hi* path, or came within reach of his rifle; for ho was per sonally engaged in more hazardous contests TO* the savages, than any other man west of fhe tnountauis excepting Daniel Boone. He .was in met an Indian hunter, as many of the narly borderers were. This class of men appear .to have been more numerous in this region than in any other portion of »i a. A. B. f.;: I i •: Two tiers; and doubtless arose from the slafcgMer at Braddock's defeat, and the ntibiekpusi murders and attacks oh defence- femilies that for many years followed that Brady was also a very suc cessful ;trapperand hunter, and took more beaTej: ■ than any of the Indiana them selves; In one of his adventurous trap- Pi«g excursions to the Beaver "river, or in early days §o abound ed witpr the animals of this species that it took i& name from the fact, it so happen-' ed that; the Indians surprised him in his canin ;dbd took him prisoner. To have shot or tomahawked him on the spot Wpiild jhaVeibeen but a small gratification to-tjiaft pf satiating their revenge by bur i bihi ft t a slow fire, in the presence of all the| Indians of their village. He was thejtcfjre taken aliye to their encampment on the j west, bahfc of the Beaver River about a mile aud a half from its mouth! Affer the usual exultations and rejoicings at; the capture of a noted enemy, and cau sing; him to run the gauntlet, a fire was prepared, near which Brady was placed, after being stripped naked, and with bis arms unbound. Previously to tying to the stake ajlarge circle was formed, consisting of Indian men, womcn aud children, dan° cingand yelling, and uttering all manner of threats and abuse that their small knowledge of the English language could afford. •: The prisoner looked on these pre parations for death, and on his savage foes with a steady eye, meeting all-their threats with a ; truly savage fortitude. ’Ju the midst ;(>f their dancing and rejoicing, .a fltjuaw .of one of their chiefs came near with a child in her arms. Quick as and with an intuitive prescience, he snatched it from her and threw it into tbe midst of fhe flames. Horror-struck at the siidden outrage, the Indians simul taneously rushed to rescue the infant from .fire-; In the midst of the confusion Brady parted from the circle, overturning all that Came in hig way, and rushed into the adjacent thickets, with the Indians I yelling at his heels. He ascended the steep aide of the present hill amidst a shower ;of bullets, and darting down the Opposite; declivity, secreted himself in the deep, ravines and laurel thickets that abound for several miles around it. His knowledge of the country and wonderful activity enabled him to elude his enemies, and reach the settlements on the south of the Ohio river, which he crossed by swim ming. j The hill near whose base this ad venture jm said-to have, happened still goes by bis upmo; and the incident is often re ferred ter by the traveller, as tbe coach is slowly dragged up its side. \ Pond. In the course of this afternoon wc passed near several small lakes); from half to three-fourths of a mile bmg,;Upd; nearly as wide; being embosom ed among low green bills, they resembled beautiful- pearls, surrounded by emerals. .Qne these, catlp4 Brady’s Pond, is seat ed abbut. three miles from the cliffs or nar rows of the Cuyahoga. From undoubted authority, it seems that the following in cident actually transpired in this vicinity. Brady’f residence, was on Chartler’s creek on the south' side of the Ohio, as before noticed j ;pnd being a man of Herculean “strength,'activity and courage, he was gen erally as the leader of the hardy bordererS in all theyr incursions into the Indian territory north of the river. On this OFceajsion, which was about the year 1780, a huge party of warriors from the falls of the Cuyahoga and the adjacent' countiy, |ad made an inroad on the south side of thp Ohio river, in the lower part °f whW ip now Washington county, hut whichjlwis then .known a f the settlement of Catfish Camp, after an old Indian of that napiej when the whites first'came into the pouptQr oh the Monongahela river.—; This pnHy had murdered several fam i lies, and wisV!ithp plunder had reefossed the Ohio -bjtfpre effectual pursuit could be made. |Bte Brady a party was directly summofied, of his chosen followers, who hastened jpn after them; but the Indians Wingjonh or two days the start, he could them la time to arrest their villag;esi- Near the spot • where. ■ jthp; - town of Ravenna now stands 'two parties, one of tWbpch went to the north, and the other. .|fcss tp the falls .of the. Cuyahoga. B,rady ,, fl mpn also divided; a. part pursued fkpnorthern. trail, apd apart went with their comniander-to the Indian village, iy ingnh river.in the present township of Northampton, in Portage county Al though Briidy made his approaches with the utiposPcaution, : the Indians, expectin'* a ppreiut, were op the lookout, and ready t<? receive Him with numbers fourfold to those of Brady’s party, whose only safety was in a hasty retreat, which, from tho.ar dpr-of .thelpursuit, soon became a perfect flight, Beidy directed bis men to sepa rate, and each one take care of himself; but the Indians knowing Brady, and ha ying, a most inveterate hatred dread of him, from, the numerous chastisements which be had inflicted upon them, left all the others,-and with united strength pur sued him alone. The Cuyahoga here makes a wide bond to the south, including a large, tract of land of several pules of surface, ip •tbelfoxui.bf a pcmnsula,: Witfi in Tbist dtteuct']tbe^|surßuit tested: ’ ‘ [independent in everything.] ALTOONA, PA., THURSDAY, JANUARY 19, 1860. The Indiana, extending their line to the right and left, forced him on to the bank of the stream. , Having, in peaceable times, often hunted over this ground with the Indians, and knowing every turn in the Cuyahoga as familiarly as the villager knows the streets of his own hamlet, Bra dy directed his course to the river, to a spot where the whole stream is compress ed, by the rocky cliffs, into a narrow chan nel of only twenty-two feet across the top pf the chasm, although it is considerably wider beneath, near the water,, and in its height more than twice that number pf feet above the current. Through this pass the water rushes like a race-horse, chafing and roaring at the confinement of its. current by the rocky channel, while, a short distance above, the stream is at least fifty yards wide. As he approached the chasm, Brady, knowing that life or death was in the effort, concentrated his mighty powers, and leaped the stream at a single bound. It so happened that, in the opposite cliff, the leap was favored by a low place, into s which he dropped, and grasping the bushes, he thus helped him self to ascend to the top of the cliff. The Indiana, for a few moments, were lost in wonder and admiration, and before they hW recovered their recollection, he was half way up the side of the opposite hill, hut still within reach of their rifles. They could easily have shot him at any moment before, but being bent on taking him alive, for torture, and to glut their long-delayed revenge, they forbore the use of the rifle ; but now seeing him likely to escape, they all fired upon him j one bullet wounding him severely in the"hip, but not so badly as to prevent bis progress. The Indians having to make considerable circuit before they could cross the stream, Brady ad vanced a good distance ahead. His limb was growing stiff from the wound, and as the Indians gained on him, he made fqr the pond which now bears Lis name, and plunging in, swam undej: water a consid erable distance, and came up under the trynk of a large oak, which had'fallen into the pond. This, although leaving only a small breathing place to support life, still completely sheltered him from their sight. The Indians, tracing him by blood to the water, made diligent search all round the pond, but finding no signs of his exit, fi nally the conclusion that ne had sunk and was drowned. As they were at one time standing on the very tree be neath which ho was concealed, Brady, un derstanding their language, was very glad to hear the result of their deliberations and after they had gone, weary, lame and fmngry, ho made good his retreat to his own home. His followers also all return .ed in safety. The chasm across which he Jeaped is in sight of the bridge where we crossed the Cuyahoga, and is known in all that region by the name of Brady's Leap. A STEW DROP GAME. New York sharpers are famous for then adroitness in “raising the wind;” but the following specimen of Western knavery is rather ahead of New York in that line of business. The Seymour Times says : A man of genteel appearance, with car pet sack in hand, taking it afoot, along the public Square in Lexington, Scott county, Indiana, and when crossing the square, dropped dead, to all appear ance. Everybody ran, medical aid was called, rubbing commenced, tha stranger still slept, and was very stiff; to all appear ance his limbs were paralyzed so that he could hot be raised without the limbs giv ing way. “Bleed him !’■ sateral hallooed; the man comes to all at',once; looks wild.

He travels to Befit, nine miles; drops again; everybody is alarmed; comes to; tells ho-is out of money; they make him up a pony-purse; the Doctor takes him hoifie and gives him something', to eat; off he goes again to Bichie- s Mills; drops again ;■ no men about: wid women frightened and run for men |mks; find one ; man lies dead until man comes; women with camphor bottles run ning in every difectibh; eicitbmeht high; Mr, Biehie mkekhim into the housemand keeps him all night, gives him breakfast, and, SIQ- He leaves for 'North Mhdison,; drops, again ;he writes he; is out of money, and want? to get home;; hat goes round; he makes §9,50 off the good people of North Madiwin.

It seemed however that I was to be disappointed. When we arri ved, 1 learned the “gaia” had gone to a party the other aide Of the creek j so I went to bed cursine the luck which depri ved mo of seeing them that night. The night had well advanced, when I heard one of the girls, come home, anti passing into the, adjoining roomj was warming be fore some coals which were ''alive bn the. hearth. It seems that the old- lady and gentleman slept in the; same room, but I was not aware of 'it until then. Having warmed herself, she tiu'hed to leave the room, when the old man'spoke : “Girls,” said he, bthc.schoolmaster’s in your bed ” “Very well,” said Sayah, and passing the room I slept jin, wont up stairs. About an hour elapsed, when I heard Ju dy, the other one, come.:; She stood at the door a longtime, talkingwith her “feller,” then entered softly. Disrobing her feet, she .entered the room wl|ere 1 lay, in her stocking feet, carefully undressed herself, and coding to the side bf the bed pre pared to get in. Now that I lay in the middle, and -turning back the clothes, she gave mo a shake and said, in a suppressed whisper : ? “Lay over Sarah”” 1 r t>Hed over, and whipped the corner of the pillow into my mbuth to keep, me from laughing. In she bounced, but the bed would speak. The old man heard it: and cried out; ? “Judy I” ! i “Sir !” was responded;?: in a faint tone from the bed beside mp. || “ The schoolmaster is ifi that Led /” With one loud yell amf “oh, heavens,” she landed on the floor, £tnd fled.with the rapidity of a deer up stairs. She never heard the last of it, 1 can tell you; but probably she “learned something” about “staying out late sparking/ 'and trying to slip in unbeknown tb the bid folks.

It seems to me, that the duty of att individual who is about to enter upon the profession of teaching, should bo first, to enquire what the nature and responsibility of its duties are, and, secondly, to ascertain whether he or she possesses the requisite qualifications for the oP those The importance of a duty edn only bo properly estimated by the 1 significance of the consequence which results from the * performance or uon-pcrformauoo of that duty. That the spiritual, as. well as the temporal, destiny of an individual greatly, if not entirely, depends upSh tho early mental and moral culturo he receives, is a 2>ostulatum soobvionaas to preclude the necessity of further, argument tp prove it.

It is fair' thorer fore, to that they can and do ex ert a powerful influence for good pr evil upon the minds of the youthi. It is a fact, .well established by experience; that the first impressions made upon the mind of a child, whether they be right pr wfotig, true or false, are far iiioroenduringthaq those made in manhood. One wrong idea, in culcated In the mind of a child, by an in judicious teacher, may not only inflict up on the child a mental wound, bulmayprb duce a moral cancer which shall prey upon that mind not only in time, but alsw through eternity.
