Another Day.
BY J. WILLIA3f 'VAN NAJIEF
Another day has passed away
And brought me nearer home,
Nearer the grave,so cold and gray,
Nearer thejasper throne,
Another day of toil and care
Reckoned with the past,
And t can see the shadows whero
The sunbeams lingered last.
Another day of shifting scenes
In life's dramatic page,
And yet my heart so fondly leans
To things of this world's age.
I know I'm drawing near the dark
And ever
And yet I fail to steer my bark,
I let it drift with every breath.
Another day, a mile-stone passed
On life's p-obation here,
Another lengthened shadow cast
Toward llfe's sunset there.
Each day I'm nearer the dark grave,
Nearer the judge of all,
Oh, may I live the lift to save,
And heed stern duty's call.
Ittiorellancouo.
A. Thrilling Adventure.
We question whether in the history of
hair breadth escapes a parallel to the fol
lowing can be found. The story was
told to us by an old and %alued friend,
now residing in the country, but whose
early days were spent near the scene of
the tragic adventure recorded here.
We give the story as it was related to
us in the words of the hero.
It was about the year 1805, that I set
tled in Virginia, near the Falls of Kana
wha. The country at that time was an
unbroken wilderness But• few settle
ments had been made by the whites, and
they ware so far apart as to render vain
all hopes of assistance in case of an at
tack from the hostile Indians, numbers
of whom still infested the immediate
neighborhood.
I lived there alone with my wife for
severeral months unmolested, and by
dint of perseverance, then young and
hardy, had succeeded in making quite a
clearing iu the forest, which I planted
in corn, and promised an abundant
yield.
One morning after we had dispatched
our humble, meal and had just pre :
pared to venture forth upon my accus
tomed routine of labor, my attention was
arrested by the tinkling of a cow bell in
the corn field.
"There," said my wife, " the cow is
in the field."
But the ear of a backwoldsman be
comesvery accute, especially so from the
fact his safety often depends upon the
nice cultivation of that sense. I was not
so easily deceived. I listened. The
sound was again repeated.
"That noise," said I iu reply to my
wife's remark, "was not the tinkling of
a bell upon the neck of a cow, but a de
coy from some Indian, who wishes to
draw me into ambush."
Believing this to be the case, I took
down my old musket, and seeing that it
was properly loaded, I stole cautiously
around the field towards the spot from
which the sound proceeded.
As I suspected, there, iu a club of
bushes crouched an Indian, waiting for
Inc to appear in answer to his decoy bell,
that he might send the fatal bullet to
my heart. I approached without dis
covering:myself to him until within shoot
ing distance, then I raised my piece and '
fired. The bullet sped true to its mark,
and the Indian fell down dead.'
Nut knowing but he might be accom
panied by others, I returned with all
speed to my cabin, and having firmly
naricadcd the door, I watched all day
from the port hole, in rnticipaticn of an
attack from . the friends of the :Indian I
had killed
To add to the danger and the seeming
helplessness of my situation, I discover
ed I had but one shot left. If attacked
by numb2rs, 1 should be entirely in
their power. Determined to do the best
with what I had, I poured out the last
charge of powder and put it iuto the
musket, and then waited for the ap
proach of night, sure of an attack.
Night came at last. A beautiful
moonlight night it was too, and this
favored me greatly, as I would thereby
observe the movements of the enemy as
they approached the cabin.
It was some two hours after nightfall,
and yet I had neither heard nor seen a
sign of the In , iians, when suddenly I was
startled by the baying of my dog at the
stable, I knew that the Indians were
coming. The stable stood a little to the
west of the cabin, and between the two
was a patch of cleared ground upon
which the light of the full moon fell un
obstructed.
Judging from noise at the
stable that they would advance from
that direction I posted myself at the port
hole on that side of the cabin.
[WHOLE NUMBER 1,914.
I had previously placed my wife on
the cross pole in the chimney so that in
case our enemies effected an entrance
into our cabin, she might climb out
For the Spy
through the low chimney, and effect her
escape. For myself, I entertained no
hope, but determined not to be taken
alive, and to sell my life dearly as possi
ble. .
With breathless anxiety I watched at
the port hole. At length I saw men
emerge from the sh.dow of the stable,
and advance across the open ground
toward my cabin. One—two—three--
great heavenslsix stalwart Indians armul
to the teeth, and urged on by the he pe
of revenge; and I alone to oppose them
with one charge of powder. My case
was desperate indeed. With quick and
steady step in close single file, they ap
proached and were already within a few
yards of the house, when a slight move
ment of the foreward Indian changed
the position of the six, so that a portion
of the left side of each was uncovered.—
They were in range, and my aim would
cover all. Quack as thought I armed
and fired. As the smoke cleared away,
I could hardly credit what my own senses
showed me as the result of my shot.—
The fifteen slugs which I had loaded the
musket, had done their work well, five of
the six indians lay dead upon the ground,
and the sixth had disappeared.
Although no enemy was now in sight,
I did not venture forth until morning.—
There lay the bodies of the five Indians,
undisturbed, together with the rifle of
the other. Securing the arms and am
munition of the fallen Indians, I follow
ed up the trail of the missing one, until
it reached the river, beyond which point
[ could discover no trail, whatever.—
From the amount of blood which
[narked his trail,together with the unmis
takable evidence that he had picked his
way with difficulty, I was led to believe
that he was mortally wounded, and in
order to prevent his body falling: into
the hands of his white foes,", he had
groped his way to the river and thrown
himself into the current which had borne
it away.
The Indians had killed my cow, and
that you may be assured was no trifling
loss, yet in my gratitude for my escape
from the mercilss savao• ° esj would have
been entirely willing to have made great
er sacrifices. I was provided thus with
arms and ammunition taken from the six
Indians, in case of a second attack; but
this, fortunately, proved to be my last ad
venture with the savages.
Not one of the band had escaped to
tell the tale, and incite his brethern to
revenge the ,eath of his comrades.
"Ah !" exclaimed the old man, while
the tears stood in his eves, at the mem
ory of that eventful night, "that was a
glorious shot—the best shot I ever made."
The hero of this adventure lived to see
the rude wilderness,where he had pitch
ed his lonely cabin, transfortned into
smiling fields, and peopled with hardy
and enterprising pale faces,arnong whom
his last days were passed in peace and
plenty, undisturbed by his old foes, but
he don't tell us whether his wife ever
came from out the chimney, or how he
disposed of the five Indians.
The Cruelties at Salisbury.
The trial of the ex-rebel Major Gee for
cruelty to the Union prisoners at Salis
bury brings forth evidence very much
like that which was elicited upon the
trial of IVerze, the monster of Anderson
ville. The prisoners were penned in a
large field, which was commanded by ar
tillery under the charge of rebel troops.
They were in a wooded country, and the
erection of sheds to shelter them could
have been resolved upon at any time,and
easily executed by the labor of the priso
ners themselves. But they were not al
lowed such luxury. They had a few
tents,but not near enough,and the major
ity of them were compelled to dig holes
iu the ground. They were not allowed
straw to lie upon; they were compelled
to use their blankets, such as had them,
and endure the severity of sun and storm.
In wet weather th soil dissolved into a
paste of soft mud, in which the foot sunk
over shoe•top at every step. In Septem
ber, 1564, there were 9801 prisoners at
this place,and they were densely crowded
together in the small place assigned them.
The prisoners were not allowed to gather
in groups, and the order was to fire upon
them whenever they did so. In conse
quence many were killed by the sentinels,
and upon one occasion artillery was
opened upon all the men in the inelosures
and many were slaughtered. The aver
age of deaths were from eighteen to forty
per day. The food was stinted in quantity
and between starvation, exposure and
disease, the prisoners were disposed of
rapidly. Gee was in command at the
time when these atrocities were perpe
trated. It has been attempted to be shown
on his behalf that officers of superior rank
were present at times, and that they were
responsible for the cruelties which were
committed ; but Gee was the regular
commander, and although others might
have ranked him, it has been shown that
he was free from the responsibility which
attached to his office. The trial it is
thought will, yet consume about a month
of time.
