RIDE, ;t TALE OF OREGON Some yeais' ago, when the Ameri can Fur Company and the Hudson's Bay traders carried on powerful op positionAthe wild and rocky Ore gon territery, little forts were erected, whence a commerce in lielfria was made with the Indians. One of those, in a beautiful valley, by a little stream, near the Grand Bayou Sa r lade —a great resort for game of all kinds —was called S:pokan Port. Its er and governor, James McPh ersoir a Scotchrhan, had left home ItlibbrTacl, 'but with t the characteristic persever ance of his countrymen, had acquired wealth. Pushing into those wilds, his enterprise and sagacity had enabled him to compete with Allis rivals in their exciting and hazardous trade.— It is the coatantstudy of opposition companies and traders to out-general each other, and these efforts giVe rlse to almost superhuman exertion, tend in, to sharpen the wits of all concern ed in a sensible manner. He who shows the greatest knostledge of In dion tastes, of haunts of the beaver and buffalo, of' times to move and times to go into winter quarters, is sure to make the best comparison. It was about two years after theca tablishment of the fort, and when all were in activity and hustle, and Ed ward Ray, a Louisianian, obtained an appointment under the owner, and had conveyed from New Orleans a cargo of merchandise for the compa ny. In addition he had taken to re join her father, Miss MePhersonovith a female attendant. So long and pe culiar a journey up the Mississippi and across the bluffs and grassy plains, and over the Rocky Mountains—nec essarily made the young people inti mate, and 'reflectingly a mutual affec tion had arisen between them. Ar rived at their journey's end, Ray be came a clerk, and the heiress presided over her . fathe`r'S „establishment.— Whatever were her feetinge, the poor cleric never sought to learn, and so reserved and taciturn was he that the young girl Ought herself deceiVed in him. Ray was not of a sanguine turn; and seeing no means of rising to a level with his master, he allowed' despondency -to unnerve his spirit.- Faithful to his trust, yet ho made no advance. Some months after his arrival, the time approaching for. a regular meet ing With the Indians, when the whole fortune of the year would' be decided. It was usual to appoint a place for the natives to collect their beaver and oth er slcins, where the traders repaired, and whoever offered the best prices obtained the best market. Twodays before the appointed time, the inmates of the fort were seated at their eve ning Meal. Me - eherson, his daughter, Ray, and three other clerks were heartily discussing the wild delicacies spread before them, when a bustle was heard without, and soon a haff-Greed hunter appeared on the threshold. "What news, Nick ?" said McPher son, who recognized in the inl,:rinier a scout sent out to learn the proceed ings of the rival traders. "Bad," said Nick, "Master Sublette got ahead of Spoken, Indians at camp, plenty of beaver. Master Sublette buy up all, but him got no tobacco, so he send away to BroArn for some— then smoke and buy all the beaver." "Why, thAt is good news," said the trader, "if Sublette has no tobacco, all is right. We have plenty, and riot an Indian will sell a skin tilt he Base puff at the pipe of peace. So up my men ! you - must away and out-gener al Sublette, by taking Johnson a good supply of the weed? "All very fills," said Nick, shaking his head, "but Sublette knew a trick or two ahead of that; a hundred Blackfeet lying in the woods; not got through them till the market is over !" "The Blackfeet ? - then we are beat ! What's to be (lobe'?" pried -Monier son. ilfow znifiy 'wilt do 7" said - . • .. "If Johnson, .our agent, had but I one," replied the, desponding trader, "all would be right. • It is impossible, however, and this year is lost to me." "By no- means., said Bay, rising, all his native energy beaming in his eye ; "Johnson 'shall have a bale, or m . v scalp will hang in a Blackfoot hut before mornin g. ", "Edwardl" ex c laimed Mary Mc- Pherson, with an alarmed glance. "Are you in earnest, Mr. Ray ?" said McPherson gravely, 'even sternly. "I am, sir. Grave me Wild Polly, and trust me to accomplish your Wish." "You will go alone then ?" "I will." .711cgherson oNered his favorite mare to be saddled, and in half an I hour, Ray, with two bales of tobacco before him, and armed to the teeth, sallied forth frcini - Siiokan amid the plaudits of the-party..„,4ary hastily retfrod to her- OOM, totild Nief, for n her overburdened heart in a od of rteuxs—the gate iy,as slowly closed as the yohng adventurer passed out of I sight, the sentinel was posted for the 1 night, and the chief, seated by his fire-plese, smoking, became gradually I absorbed in deep meditation. ' Ray rode slowly down the valley, las ho thought of his journey of sev enty miles, among the blood-thirsty Indians, who would delight in taking the pale-face prisoner, with his mare I-and bales of tobacco. He felt his I was a doubtful, nay, a rash enter j prise; but under the circumstances, rand bethinking in whose presende ho ! had Undertaken it, lie disdained to i turn back. Half an hour brought hini-to the edge of a vast plain. He could see under the light ofjhe moon ntotrack . of the Blaekfeet, and delighted with :traveling ; thus,thousands of miles from civilization, he put spurs to the mare, which trotted swiftly in the direction of the Indian mart. Bythe sagacity of the animal, Ray avoided au en campine4 of savages .in the border of a forest. Skirting along it for some distance, he dashed boldly in, and had nearly passed through , _ when the silence of the pi-lit , was broken by a loud yell, and'immediately after he descitied a party of Blackfeet.in full and eager pursuit. Drop. his me . rchaudize he wohlit not, and' unflaggingly the gallant beast bore him onward.— So fiercely and determinedly was the pursuit kept up that an. hour's hard riding did not increase the distance between the pursuers and the pursu ed. Ray's path now lay through a cane brake where the reeds rose . ten feet high,dity, : and pareked, and ; where he 'hoped.to rest himself and inane, but suddeiiiy n `dark form stood at the ve ry entrance of tlie brake, mounted on a stout horse. Seizing a pistol, the clerk sped his course directly towards ttl . seeming savage, who just in time to save himself, hastily cried out, "All right—it's saucy Nick !" No time that for greeting, and to gether they hastened on, but not till the half-breed had fired the reeds, which soon arose a wall of flame be tween them and their pursuers—a magnificent spectacle-4ot terrible to the beasts and birds which it aroused from their stompers, and whose .cries mingled with the roar of the dazzling fire as it crept to the right and left in sparkling and brilliant chains. "Nick," said Ray,: as side 'by side they dashed across the prairie, "how met we ? I left You at the fort." "No, Nick started half an hour first.

Seated around Johnson's tent, the Spokan, Kanloops, Cha,ndives, 'Sineb9ies, _and other tribes, enjoyed their luxury with un mixed satisfaction ; and when the barter commenced they disposed of the skins in an equally liberal man ner.

In a few weeks Mr. Ray, was not only son-in law but a partner at - Spokan ; and I believe none of the party have yet cause to regret the midnight ride over the bluff surrounding prairies of the wild Oregon. THE REPORTER'S JOKE Morgan O'Sullivan, an Irishman, and a celebrated Parliamentary repor ter, attached to the London Morning Chronicle some fifty years' ago, was as remarkable for his humor as his professional ability. Whenever any one offended Morgan, or got out of favor with him, he invariably retali ated in the way of Solna practical joke, that generally placed 'his antag onist in a very ridiculous position, and afforded the humorist satisfac tion. In this way he once 'got even' with two individuals at the same time, who had excited his ire—namely, the cel ebrated Wilberforce, then a leading member of the opposition in Parlia ment, and one Jack Finnerty, a Par- 1 liarnentary reporter of the Morning I Herald. Finnerty was fresh from Tipperary, and quite unacquainted with the chai•acteristics of the differ cut members, but he received a good deal of generous professional assis tance at the outset of his careerfrom Morgan O'Sullik-an. On the occasion referred to, Finnerty came into the reporter's gallery at an hour when the debates seemed to have slacken ed; he'concluded to tak3 a dose on one of the benches,and requested his friend' to wake him up if anything lively came before the House, and thereupon went off to sleep. Pres ently Mr. Wilberforce got,. upon his legs, and addressed a very 'l before the'House. . As he progressed, a mischievous idea seized Morgan O'Sullivan, which, as soon as he (Wilberforce) sat down, he proceeded to put in practice. thus : Rousing Finnerty from his slumber on the benches, 'O'Sullivan exclaimed, "Jack, Wilberforce has just made an extraordinary speeeli." 'What about?' returned Finnerty, rubbing his eyes. "About the, potato ; the effect of it on national vivacity—the great vir tues of it as an article of popular di et; proved that the finest kind of men were raised on it, far superior to the English." "Wilberforce said that, did he?" exclaimed Jack, "come, let me take his reniarks, in full from your notes." "With pleasUre, my dear fel : low," replied O'Sullivan, who com menced as if reading from a note book, whilst Finnprty eagerly wrote after him in the following vein : "Mr. Wilberforce than emphatically re marked that it always appeared to him, beywid question, that the great cause why the Irish laborers, as a body, where so much - stronger and capable of enduringw.nauch more fa tigue then the Euesh, arose from the surp.assingyi of their ; pots: to."
