“It was on this very eve, many'years since, my
Children," began the noble lady to her auditors,“*'tliul
three lovely daughters of a noble house, assembled
together in « dreary wood, to try the charm of the
night, which if successful, w.tstogivolu their earn
tost sight the phantom to rut of the love* who wasuf
terwurds to become the husband. Their powerful
curiosity hud stilled their fear ((’or they were as tim
id as bountiful) on their first suiting out on (ins ex
tradition, but on finding themselves uluhe in the dark
und melancholy woods, some touches of cowardice
and compunction assailed them together, and (hey
determined, by a somewhat holy beginnings to sacli
fy the purpose which liad taken them thither. They
werq to young to 1-i Ugh ol this mock compact bo*
tween Cod and the Devil; and, therefore, when
Catherine, lira eldest ristcr, began, in an audible
Voice, to recite. lira prayer against witchcraft, tho
others joined in it hiost devoutly. Now,.then, forth
Hcd against evil, their courage roso with every addi
Ilona I sentence; and when lira soft voice of young
Agnes, the lovlicst and youngest of the three, stead
fty responded 'amen,* they Were a* courageous us was
necessary t mid no.longer fearful of the powois of thb
evil one. I know hot, my children, uli lira, forms
used upon this occasion, but Catherine, after repeating
certain words, in u solemn voice,ndvumn d before hif
sisters,'and quietly placed upon lira ground her ol*
Turing lo lira shade she hud ynvolad, as by his con
duct towards it, sho was to judge of her future pros
pects. Il was a beautiful roso tree Which ,sho had
chosen, und Ihu (lowers were full und many ; and ll>o
sisters were contemplating from u distance.the rich
ness of Uralr hue, when they were startled by tho
clashing of arms and (Ira loud outcries of men in
fierce contention, breaking upon tVio stillness of lira
night. For a moment they hesitated whether to fly
or to remain concealed, when their doubts were Joel
tied by the rapid upproach of a stern, stately High
land chief, who, brandishing his broadsword, bwopt
on to the roso tree, as la ho would annihilate from
(Ira earth its fair arid fragile beauty. Suddenly, he
paused—lda arm was no longer raised to delilruy—
lira weapon dropped gentle down beside. the tree—
and they saw his blue eyes look kindly and mildly
on the flowers, ds, bonding dovVn to gather them, he
farted from their sight in the action, Catherine was
by no moans displeased with her fortune, and the
appearance of her handsome bridegroom gave cour
age to the other two to hasten the coming of thi-irs.
Marian, the second sister, removed (ho rom, placing
& lily bough in its stead, limn, with a boating heart
and Wandering eye, repealed the charm* Again
Ihe silence was broken, os tho quick but steady
tramp of a warrior’s horse, struck upon the our, und
the shade of ft noble -cavalier dismounted from his
phaiitumsiocd,udvancodsiowly, very slowly, towards
lira lily ; his face was beautiful but sad—beyond ex
pression sad; and they saw a tear fall upon tho flow
er as ho pressed it gently tb his bosom, lie, (uo,
had faded like a‘dream, .when lira gentle Agnes ad
vanced to perform her port Inlho witcheries of the
night, Sira trembled, but she would not recede, and
Aintly repealing the charm, hung bur. jiondkerchlcf
on the branch of a distant tree. This time there Was
no sound; from the wood there came.a long-and
Bible procession of horse and foot, following a coffin
that was steadily, borne toward them t many wore
(ho shadowy mourners.that followed, Agnes watch
ed with breathless attention tho march of tup phantom
dead; they advanced slowly and steadily till (hoy
came to the tree where her while offering fluttered
lightly in tho air; il was soon suspended a moment
above them, then dropped amid, tho ouValcnde,- and

at tho offering os it (bit. •« , .
“Days, weeks, months, passed away, and still
found Agnes drooping over her blighted hopes, and
Spooling the death of which, thd bmenof Iheforcel
hud assured her; but still she died not—and wasev

I be present. Marian 100, was there, undno happiness
) could iiavo been more complete than.that.of the bri
> dal party; hut a dark night set upon this brilliant
’ morning. JSro they could reach the church, which
was to bo the scene of their unions the Highlanders
had docendcd in, force from the mountains, and

silence, though .accompanied by sorrow, again
tdghed ia (he halls of the young and hapless bride*
groom
• 5o
But tho greatest evil resulting Trom this prtc!
litfoud was (ho fiud effect il hud upon the mind uf
Agnes. ‘Her belief in, thu omen of llio forest was
returned; her;confidence in her, prospects Was shaken;
and with the suriie feelings that bid the giddy wretch
throw himself at once from'the prccipiceover which
he fours he shall full, she determined lo hasten the
destiny which she now (irmly.believed to uwaitlicr.
Convinced by tho file of hut sister oi tho. certain
fulfilment of her own, she resolved lo'sparo her lav.
or the anguish of beholding her expire; and for this
purpose, suddenly.broke oIF all connection with him;
and reiused to admit him tu her presence. Wallet's
hopes still struggled with despair; ho made some
earnest appeals to' her tenderness, her reason and
her gratitude. Agnes Was deaf to all; shcbulieved
htTsdi destined tu IaII tin early victim-to death; and
that that bridegroom would snatch her from un
earthly one, oven ul t)io niter’s foot. ' VVniter, heart
broken, retired from his home, nod, joining the Cuv.
uller army of (he king, sought, in the tumult of u
military life, forgetfulness o( the wound his calmer
days lind given. • „ -
In tho intervals of Ins visits lo his family, Marian
became interested Tu hia vvelfare; aim saw lilm fre*
quenlly ; spoke lo him of Agnes, toothed his suffer,
mgs by her compassion, and gratified his pride by
her admiration. Ho hud no thought for any other;
and, .though he loved not Marian, site became his
trusted IricmK his companion, and finally his wile.
It was her will, not his ; and what woman cverTuil.
ed in her deterniinuliun over man? They were
wretched. ' .
, The heart of Walter, had not been interested, and
the temper'of Marian was such as to require its del*
{cute preference. She became jealous, iirit.ibic, per.
verse, and soon taught her iisphsa husband the
difference between herself and the gentle Agnes.—
Swell a course could huvo but one termination;
stretched ul length upon (hat sick lied which was to
be her last, she sent to desire tho attendance of her
ydnng sister. ■ Agnes obeyed the mandate, but olily
arrived in time to meet the funeral procession which
conducted llio hapless Mariuii to her curly grave,—
Tho widower, instantly .recognized, from u distance,
his young heart’s love, and rapidly flew to meet her
and us siie shed tears of unleigned sorrow lor his
loss, he took the white handkerchief she held, and
tenderly dried (hem away. O ! lit that moment how
deep’y Agnes sighed ! Sho beheld in this scene (he
fulfilment of (he omen, and wept tu think that she
lmd;thus wasted some of llio best years of her life,
and trifled with her lover’s happiness and her own,
•O, silly delusion!’ the exclaimed in bitterness dl
heart,‘of whut hast thou nut betcaved >nu7* A.'tef
tho period of mourning bud expired, sho gave her
hand to Walter, and endeavored, in making his days
tranquil, to forget the felicity she hud lost." .
BuUliey were wedded grandma, dear,” said the
beautiful Lilias, laughing; •♦what more.would the
people have had ?"
“Youlh, and Ms lova and i(fthupo,niid alliti bright

Thinking Ar-odo.—Lord Dudley had been invited
to the house of a friend upon lliu occasion of some,
great fete, but being u man of early habits, had or*
derud his carriage at a certain hour, having some
mtlea lo travel before he could obtain his accustomed
repose. To his great mortification alter repeated
inquiries for Lord Dudley's carriage, it hud not ur.
rived, and his lordship, as well us others imagined
that some accident must huvo litippened lo it. One
ol the guests, seeing- how much his lordship was
discoiieu'led by the event, very politely offered him
4 seat in his. The gentleman in question had to
puss his lordtdilp'u house on Ids return home, and
nnd though he was uhnrst a stranger to Lord Dud*
ley; his rank and position in the country were of
course well known to -him, and the civility was no
more than one gentleman would, under similar olr*
bumslanccs, have offered In another. Nevertheless
they hud not been seated In the cufriugo more than
twenty minifies* When the peer who, being tired, had
up to this time maintained u must purled silence,
observed, in a low, but distinctly audible tone of
voice—“l’m very sorry 1 accepted his offer. J don’t
know the man. It was civil, certainly; but the
Worst Is, | suppose 1 must ask him to dinner. It’s
u deuce of a boro!” lie then re.lapsed into his for*
mor stale of taciturnity, when, after a few minutes,
the gentleman protending to bo afflicted with tho
sumo failing, and imitating hie lordship's (one, ob.
served—« Perhaps he’ll think I did it to make his
acquaintance. Why, 1 would have done the same
to any farnjer on his estate. I hope ho won’t think
it necessary tousk jm».to dinner. I*ll bo Hoggcd'if I’d
accept his invitation J” Lord Dudley listened to him
with earnest interest, immediately comprehended
the joke which ho had himself* piovokcd, offered his
hand with much hearty good will to lijs companion,
moUing cvbry proper apology fbr |»U Involuntary
rudeness and from Uni night tho travellers became
inseparable companions.

COL. faEMOXT'AKD HIS PA^SV.
iFurtliier and Final Accounts* I
We.resume tho extracts from Col. Fremont's Let* ]
lets,.prefacing them will) some brief description of|
tho localities.made memorable by disaster, for tho i
infaffhalton oflhoso who liaVo not recent tno'psal
hand. V , •. , ;
It is known (hot the great Kooky Mountain chain,
wjlh a general direction norih and. south, sends out
a branch toward tho. southeast from between the
bonds of tho Arkansas and tho' Rio del Norte; and
this brunch forms the dividing ridgo between tho
upper valleys of these two rivers, and between the
head .waters of the Ked, River and the. Del Norte; 1
and having accomplished these purposes il'snbsidcs
and disappears in the plains of Texas. Tho highest
purl of this branchclioio, and the governing object]
mil to travellers, oro the Spanish Peaks, first mnqd
known to'American geography by the thou young
Lieut. Pino. These. Peaks are about in north Inti- 1
lude 37i degrees, and west longitude from London
105 degrees, and about on d Hno longitudinally with
tiro Pueblos of the Upper Arkansas, distant from
Ihcm haira.degree, and.insight, They are seen at
n grout distance, and oro guiding o.bjqcts to travellers.
Tiie road to Santa h*o pusses' below tho' raukV, add
crosses (he chain about two 'degrees south. Colonel
Fremont paused above them, and entered the valley
iof the Del Norte high up .above tho Mexican settle*'
lfnenl«, and above Pike's, ond intended iu,
follow the Del Norte to its head, and dross the grc.it
Rocky Mountain chain through some pass then- to
be found. He was, therefore, so to speak, going into
tho forks nf tho niounlain—into tho gorge,of two
mountains—and at a great elevation, shown by the
fact of (ho grout rivers which issue from tho opposite
sides of the Rocky Mountains at that purl—-the Ar
kansas und Del Norte on the cast, tho Grand RiVet
fork of tho Colorado of tho gulf of California on tho
went. It was ul this point—tho head of the Del
Norte—whore no traveller hud over gone before, that
Col. Fremont Intended to pass.ttf survey hlslust line :
across the continent, complete his knowledge of the |
country between (ho Missi-sippi and tho Pacific, and
crown the labors of long explorations by showing the j
country between the great river and .the great scu
to bo iuhubituble by a civilized people, and prubticu*
bio fur u great road, and (hut on several lines, and
which wus the best. 110 had been seven years en
gaged in this grout labor, and wished to complete it
It was. the beginning of . December .that ho crossed
the chain from the Arkansas valley into the valley
of (he Del Norte; ond, although lute, with (tie full
belief of the old huulors and traders at tho Pueblos,
| (lio guide'inclusive whom he lliuro engaged, that he
would go through. He was provided with every*
thing (^carry the men to California, and with grain
to curry all the animals'across.all the mountains into
the valleys oflho tributaries bf the'Grout Colorado
oftlm West, where the snows would be light, wood
and grass sufficient, game abundant, and tho hard
ships of the expedition all surmounted and left be
hind. In two weeks ho.expected to bo in these mild
valley?. Unhappily the guide consumed these two
weeks in getting to (ho head of tho Del Norte—u.
distance which only required four or fivo days of
travel, us Col. Fremont showed in coming buck.—
This wus tho cause of tho first c.ilamiiy-r-lhu loss of
the horses and mules. ..The sumo guide consumed
twenty two days, when sent with the party for ro*
lief, in making the distance which Cul Fremont,
(’with Gndey, Pretiss, and u servant,) without a guide,
on foot, jn. m*|dcr;.wsallior,, deeper snows, and half
famished, made in six. That was the cause of the
second ond irreparable calamity-- the death of. the
men',.'
. Tho immediate scene of suffering in this grout
( disaster, where tho ascent of tho.great mountain was
' ratted and its summit scaled,, must have been about
north lulitudo 38j, and west longitude from London
107, the elevation above twelve thousand feet, and
tho lime that of du.id winter—Christina*! From
.(his point the* noted, objects, Pike's. Peak, and the
Three Peaks,''would bear about E. N. E., and the
Spanish Peak about E. S. E, • i
With this notice of localities, to which a mourn
’ ful interest must long attach, wo precede to give ox*
tracts,from (he rumiining arid final letters from Cul.
Fremont. .Tho first of those is dated—
“Taos.New Mexico, February G. 1849.
“ After a limp delay, which had wooricd.rtiplu the
point of resolving to sol out a|oin myself, tidings
have at lust reached me from rny ill-fated parly.
“Air. Vincent Haler came' in fast night,' having
the night bolbru reached tlie. Little Colorado settle*
merit, with throe or four others. Including Mr. King
uud Mr. Proulx,* we hove Inst eleven ofour party.
“ Occurrences, since I left them, are briefly those,
so fur us they cunio’ \Vithln the knowledge of Mr.
Haler; I say briefly, because I urn now unwilling
to force niy mind to dwell upon the' details of whul
has been suffered. 1 I need reprieve from terrible
cdntemplaliuns. lam absolutely astonished at this
jiutsisluhcQ of misfortune—this succession ofoulum*
utics which no care or vigilance of mind could fur
sec or prevent. I
“ You will remember that I - had left the.damp,!
(iwonty.three men) whoii'lisot off with Godey, Preussj
mid my servanf. in smirch of .Ring and succor, with I
|directions about tho baggage, and with occupation
sufficient about it to, cmylny them for throe or four
days; uftor which they wore to follow me down tho
river.' Within that lime I expected relief from
King's party, If U onino at oil.. Tliey remained seven
days and then started, their scant piovlsions about
exhausted, and the dead mules on tho western side
oflho groat Sierra buried under snow.
“ Manual—(yon well remember Manual—a Chris
tian Indian of the Cosumno tribe, in the Valley of
the San Joaquin)—gave way to u feeling of despair
after they had movud aaout two nfilcs, and bogged |
Vincent lialur, whom 1 had left in command, to
hlihul him. Failing to find death in that form, ho
turned ami made his way back to tho camp, intend*
ing to die there; which lie doubtless noon did.
mTIio parly moved on,ond til ten ihlloh Wine gave
out—threw away hie gun and blanket— and, a Tew
hundred yards further, lull over into lliu snow and
died. Tvvb lndi m boys—countrymen of Manuel—
wore behind. They came upon' him—rblled him up
in hia blanket, and buried him iii'lho snow on the
bank of tho river.
•• No other died tint day. None llio next.
•'Carver rnvod during tho night—lms imagination
wholly occupied .with image* of many things which
hu funded himself to bo outing. In tho Itiornlog ho
wonderod off, and probably noon died, ilo was not
seen ugnln.
"Sorol on this day (tho fourth from tho camp)
laid down to die. - They built him u Hro, and Morin,
who was In a dying condition, and snounblim) ro
muined with him. Thefotwodid not probably lust
till tho next morning. That evening (1 think it was)
Hubbard killed n deer.
“They travelled on, getting herd and tliefoii grouse,
but nothing else, the deep snow in the valley having
driven off the game.
“This stale of the party became desperate, and
brought llulur to the determination ofbrouking llpp,
!n order to prevent thorn from living upon each other,
rip told them that ho hod done ull he could (hr thorn
—tlmt they h«d no other hope remaining than, the
expected relief—end that the boat plan was to scat

down the riven that, for himself, If he was to bo
eaten, ho would, ut all events, ho found travelling
when he did die. This address hud Us effect. They
accordingly separated. ' ’
“With Haler oonlinod five others—Scott, Hubbard,
Martin, Bacon, one other, and the two Cosuiuno In*

" Rohror now become despondent, ohd slopped.—
Haler reminded him ol hts latiii|y,'and urged him to
try und hold out fur their sake, Roused by this np*
poa) to Ms tondureut affections, the unfortunate'inun
moved forward, but feebly, and soon began to full
