A REMINISCENCE
----OF---
BLACK HAM?' K.
BY 'WESLEY BRADSHAW
Much has been said both for and
against the Indian character; but we
doubt whether greater and nobler
qualities have ever been exhibited in
the conduct - of civilized rulers and
commanders than are shoivn in the
incidents we are about to relate con
cerning Black , Hawk;' whose deeds
upon the northwestern frontiers will
render his name illustrious while his
tory -exists.
Elijah Kilbourne, the subject of the
chieftain's-kindness, and to whom we
are indebted for the present sketch,
was a native of Pennsylvania. Just
before the outbreak of the great war
with Great Britain, ho left the place
of his birth to join the stirrir;gisoones
ofadvontyr_e on the Borders; and,
though now an old man, be still re
members and loves to recount the
deeds. and perils of his younger years,
and especially those we are about to
reeord.
"We had been," commenced Kil
bourne, in whose language 'the story
shall be given, "scouting :through the
country that ay about Fort Stephen-
Son, when early one morning one of
our number cane in with the intelli:.
gence that the force was besieged by
a combined force of British and In
dians. We were very soon after in
our saddles, bearing down with all
speed in that direction, for the ex- '
press purpose of joining in the fight.
But, on. arriving we found that the
enemy had been signally repulsed by
the brave little garrison under the
command of Major Croghan. Our
disappointment of learning this was,
however, in a measure lessenfid when
we learned that Black Hawk, the
leader of the savages, had gone with
some twenty of his warriors back to
his village en Rock river, whither we
instantly determined to follow • him.
"At sunrise next morning we were
on his trail, and followed it-with.great,
care to the banks of a stream.
.Here
we ascertained
_that. tho savages had
separated into nearly equal parties,
the one keeping on straight down the
banks of the Stream, while> the other
had crossed .to the other side and
continued on toWards Bosk river. A
council was - now held, in which the
oldest members of our party gave it
as their opinion that Black. Hawk had
changed his intention of. going-to his
village, and had, with . the ,greater
patt of his followerd, pursued 1013 way
' down the etream,.while the rest had
been sent by .him, for.. so me purpose,
to ,the town. In. this opinion all co
incided,•but still, our leafier, who was
a very shrewd man, had some --doubt
in his mind concerning the move
ments of the Chief, and, therefore CO
make. everything sure, detailed four
of us to follow the trail across the
stream, while he with the rest, .soine
seven or eight in number, imunediate
ly took the one doWn the bank of the
stream.
"We soon 'after found ourselves
alone and in the vicinity of Indian
settlements, and we were, therefore,
obliged to move with the utmost cau
tion, which had the effect of rsnfier
ing our progress extremely slow.—
During the course of the following
morning we. came across a great ma
ny different trails, and ,by these we
were-at length so•yerplexed that. we
resolyed to return to the main body.

threatening position, 'and ordered me
to surrender.' Resistance and escape
Were alike out of the question, and 1
accordingly delivered myself up to
him as his prisoner, hoping by some ii
means or other at some future
period - -to escape. He now told me
in English to -proceed in a certain
direction. I obeyed him, and had
not gone a stone's throw before just
as I turned a thick clump of trees, I
came suddenly upon an Indian camp,
the one to which my captor. undoubt- _
edly belonged.
"As we came up, all 'the savages,
some six or eight in -number, rose
quickly and appeared much surprised
at my appearing thus suddenlynmong
their. number. But they offered me
no harm, and they behaved with the
most Marked respect to my captor,
whom upon a close inspection I ree
ognizedte be Black Hawk himaelf.
" elle white -mole digs deep, but
Malcataimeshelciakia (Black Hawk) flies
high, And cansee afar off,' said the
chieftain; in a dee+) gutteral tone, ad
dressing me. -
Pile then related to his followers
the occasion of my capture; and as
he did so, they glared on me fiercely;
and handled their weapons in a very
threatening manner; but .at the, con
clusion of his communication they
appeared better pleased, although I
was the recipient of many a passing
frown. He now informed me that he
had told
,his young men. that they
were to-consider me as a brother, as
he was'going to adopt me into the
tribe. .
"This Was to me • but- 'little . better
than death itself; but there was no
alternative, and so I was obliged to
submit with the hope of making my
escape at some future time. The an
nunciation of Black Hawk, moreover,
caused nie great astonishment; and
after pondering the matter, I. was fi
nally forced to set down as its cause
one .of those unaccountable whims to
which the savage temperement,is of
ten subject.
"The next morning my captorslor-•
ced me to go with them to their .vil.
lage, at Rock riverov here after goiag
through a tedious ceremony, I was
dresged and painted, and thus turned
from a white man into an Indian.
"For nearly three years ensuing, it
was my constant study to give my
adopted brothers the slip; but during
the whole of that time, I was so care
fully watched and guarded that I Um
erfoind an opportunity ,to escape.—
However, it is long lane that has no
turning, and so it proved in my ease.
Pretending to be well satisfied with
my new mode of life, I at last gained
upon the confidence of the savages;
and one day when their - vigilance was
considerably relaxed, I made my es
cape, and. returned, in safety to my
friends who had mourned for .me as
dead.
"Many years after.this I *as a par

Creek, which as you know, is a tribu- •
tary of Rock river. I was employed
by the government as a scout in'which
capacity it was acknowledged that I I

at hearing myself praised; for I knew
1 was working against Black flaWk,
who,-although he was an Indian, he
had once spared my life, and I was
one never to forget a kindness. And,
besides this, I had taken a great lik
ing to him, for there wa.s something
noble and generous in his nature;
however, my first duty was -to coon•
try, and I did my duty at all hazards.
"Nov you must know that Black
Hawk, after removing west of the
Missiesippi, had recrossed contrary
to his agreement; not, however, from
any hostile motive, but to raise a crop
of corn and beans, with the Potawat
amiss and WinnebagOes, of which his
own people stood in the utmost need.
With this intention he had gone some
distance up Rock river, when an ex
press from Gen. Atkinson ordered- him
peremptorily :to return. This order

was engaged in preparing a dog fes.st

"Soon after, we saw three Indians
approaching us bearing a -white flag,
who upon coming up were made pris

some . forty or fifty, were away. at a

"As we rode up, a galling and de.
stuetive fire was poured -in-, upon us
by-the savages who, after discharging
their pieces, sprung fro mt.hei r coverts
on either side, with their-usual horri

with their knives and tomahawks.

upon us in a body. Gideon Munson

And 1 now began to wish that they

savages, I should be put to death by
the most horrible tortures. • Nothing
occurred however, to give me any

A LIFE-LONG DUEL,.
One of the most curious duels un
der the empire,- was one that had last
ed nineteen years. It had its origin
at Strasburg. A captain of hussars,
Fournier by name, and a"bretteur for--
cone," killed under the most frivolous
pretext, a youth of the name of Blum,
who was the only support of a fami
ly. The evening that Blum was burl
ed, Gen. Moreau gave a ball, and he
gave instructions to his aid-de-camp,
Dupont, to refuse admission to Four
nier. The latter, irritated, challeng
ed the aid-decamp for carrying out
the general's orders, but, luckily the
latter came off best, and wounded the
bully. But a month having elapsed,
Fournier had so far recovered as to be
able to call Dupont out again,
and.
this time it was-the latter's turn to be
placed hors du combat. Being about
to meet a third time, 'Fournier, who ,
need to amuse himself by knocking
the pipes out of his brother officers?
mouths when - riding by, proposed pis
tols. But to this Dupont naturally
declined to accede, and they fought,
once more with swords, both being:
'slightly wounded. -4'he two antago
nists became generals without having
ceased to fight whenever an-occaSion
presented itself. One night, Dupont
arrived at. a village in the Grisons, ea
poor that there was not an inn in the.
place- There was only a light in one.
lone hut. Dupont opened the door'
and found himself face to face with
Fournier.
'What you,' he said gaily. 'Well,.
then,
we must have a bola withtha
sword.'
And so saying, they set to work,.
conversing all the time. At length
Dupont pierced Fournier's neck 'and
held him- pinned against the wall at
arm's length.
'Come now,' he remarked, 'you must
acknowledge that you did. not intiti
pate that trick!.
'Oh I I know one quite as good as
that. .When you are obliged to let
go, I will give you one in the abdo
men that will give your bowels fresh
air!
orhank you, but twoul let 'go.
shall pass the night in this position.
'A pleasant perspective! Do Soli
know I am not at all at My ease ?'
'Let go your sword then,and I will
let you' go.
'No, not till I have disemboweled
you.'
Lucidly the noise brought some of
ficers who separated these inveterate
enemies. -
But alter a lapse of time Dupont
wished to marry. This h© eould,_not
Very well so long as Fournier' was
alive. So he went to to find
him out.
'21.h1 you here?' said Fournier.—
'We 811411 have another little bout
they.'
'Ye;4'replied Dupont, 'but ltsten to
inc for moment first: I want to get
married, it to do so4tri= must get rid
