FOUND DEAD
There is a certain indescribable pathos in the fol
lowing lines, which will remind the reader of Hood',
"Bride of Sighs," though there is nothing in com
mon between the two poems, save a touching sad
ness and a breathing of the " human." " Found
Dead " L from the pen of Mr. Albert Leighton,
whose poems we notioed at some length last summer:
Found dead—dead and alone;
There was nobody near, nobody near
When the outcast died on his pillow of stone—
No mother, no brother, no sister dear,
Not a friendly voice to soothe or cheer,
Not a watching eye, or a pitying tear.
Found dead—dead and alone
In the roofless street, on a pillow of stone.
Many a weary day went by,
While wretched and worn he begged for bread,
Tired of life, and longing to lie
Peacefully down with the silent did.
Hunger and cold and scorn and pain,
Had wasted his form and seared his brain,
Till at last on a bed and of frozen ground,
With a pillow of stone, was the outcast found.
Found dead—dead and alone
On a pillow of stone in the roofless street—
Nobody heard his last faint moan,
Or knew when his sad heart ceased to beat.
No mourner lingered with tears or sighs,
But the stars looked down with pitying eyes,
And the chill winds passed with a wailing sound
O'er the lonely spot where his form was found.
Found dead—yet not alone;
There was somebody near, somebody near
To claim the wanderer as his own,
And find a home for the homeless here,
One, when every human door '
Is closed to his children, scorned and poor,
Who opens the Heavenly portal wide;
Ah ! God was near when the outcast died.
Portsmouth, N. H., Nov., 1855.
A "Wonderful Escape.-1-i77
On the banks of the be tutiful Mohawk,
whore the town of Rome now • stands, stood,
during the Revolution, a strong fortification,
erected, in communication between the Mo
hawk Valley and Lake Ontario, and to pro
tect the Indian trade. At the opening of the
contest between the colonies and 'the mother
country, Fort Stanwix was almost in ruins.
Situated as it was at that time, on the ex
treme outskirts of the white settlements, it
was an important post, yet it was not until
the spring of 1777, that it was repaired by
Gen: Schuyler in whose name it was then
christened.
Early in the spring of that year, Thayen
clanegea, or Brant, the chief Sachem of the
Six Nations, made his appearance in the. val
ley of the Mohawk, with a large body of war
riors, and from his own confessions, it became
evident that the Indians had been induced by
the British to take up the hatchet in their
contest, and that the settlements in that beau
tiful region of the country would be the ob
ject of the assault. COngress saw the neces
sity of protecting the northern and western
frontiers, and Gen. Schuyler was direeted to
repair Fort Stanwix, and erect others, should
he deem it necessary. Col. Dayton was de
tailed by Schuyler to Fort Stanwix. It was
while he was engaged, in connexion with the
Tryon County militia, that the incident lam
about to relate occurred.
The commandant of one of the companies
of militia was Captain Gregg, a young man
of noble appearance, and possessed of an iron
constitution, which, in connexion with his
temperate habits and happy disposition, ena
bled him to 'pass through, with life, an or
deal such as man never passed through be
fo.re.
Notwithstanding the immediate vicinity of
the troops, the Indians in small parties were
constantly watching for opportunities to cut
off stragglers from the garrison, and even
children were not exempt from death by the
tomahawk and scalping knife.
Regardless of the danger, and despising
the foe, whom he hated with the ardent ha
tred of a frontiersman, Gregg started from the
fort one morning in company with three com
rades, for the purpose of shooting game. One
of his comrades was a boy about thirteen, by
the name of Wilson, who, from tho fear that
they might meet with Indians, was sent back
to the fort. He lived to become ensign in the
American army, and at the surrender of
Cornwallis was appointed to receive the col
ors of the various British regiments.
Gregg and the two soldiers, relieved of the
care of the boy, proceeded to the neighbor
ing woods, where they entered with zest upon
the pursuit of game. They had been thus en
gaged bit a short time when, simultaneously,
the crack of three rifles, sounding almost as
one, brought them all down. The two soldi
ers were killed outright, and Gregg received a
ball which passed 'through his left arm into
his body, and he fell to the ground, seriously
and dangerously wounded. Raising himself
on his arm, he looked around for his comrades,
and saw an Indian in the act of scalping one
of them, another bearing off in triumph the
reeking trophy of the second, while, at the
same moment that he made this discovery the
leaves parted, and a third redskin warrior,
with face smeared with his war paint, his
head decked with feathers, and his tomahawk
raised, rushed upon him. He succeeded in
dodging the first blow, aimed at his head,
which took effect in his back, inflicting a deep
wound. The second and third were more
sure, and fell with crushing force on the fore
part of his head, and he sank into insensibili
ty.
How long he remained in that condition be
was unable to tell, but when he awoke to con
sciousness, he was suffering intensely acute
pains in hie head, and found that his dog—a
small Scotch terrier that had accompanied
him—was licking his wounds. He drove him
off,'and for the sake of easing the smarting of
his wounds, he, after incredible exertion, and
fainting twice on the way, managed to craw'
to the. body of one of his companions, upon
which he laid hie head, and here he expected
to die. His faithful dog, meantime, expressed
a syspathy almost human, and by whining
barking, and licking his wounds, endeavored,
in his way to show his desire to relieve his
master's sufferings. Instead of this, however,
he added intensly to his pain by irritating and
inflaming, instead of soothing his head. Ho.
ping to rid himself of the animal and die in
peace, he said to him : "If you think so much
of me why don't you go for help ?" As if en
dowed with reason for the occasion the dog
seemed to understand him, and started off to
ward the fort. At the distance of a mile in
that direction he came upon two men who
were fishing. Running up to them, he caught
them by their clothes with his teeth, palling
and tugging at their garments, and then run
ning in the direction of the woods, looking
back to see if they followed him. Their first t
feeling was one of fear; thinking perhaps,
that the animal was mad, and it was some lit
tle time before they seemed -to under
stand the dog's desire that they should
follow him : They did so at last, and now the
faithful brute fairly danced and capered:with
joy. Running before, he led them directly
toward the woods, now and then looking back
to see if they were coming.
After getting somo little distance into the
deep shade of the forest, theybecame fearful of
Indians, and taking counsel of their fears
were about to turn back, The excitement of
the dog was now extreme. He danced about
them in a perfect fever of anxiety ; pulled at
their clothes, ran before, barked t and sitting
down on his haunches gave utterance to one
of those long mournful howls, which all have
heard but which none can describe ; and final
ly, finding they were about to return, he actu
ally jumped upon them, and endeavored to
push them in the direction he desired they
should go. No one could behold his actions
—which lacked only language to express the
intensity of his desire—without feeling that
something urgent demanded their presence in
the deep recesses of the woods, and they final
ly concluded to follow and see the end of it.
How sudden was the change in the action of
the animal ! He ran around them, danced
and capered, and licked their hands, looking
up into their faces with such a look ot grati
tude as amply repaid them for the apparent
risk they rnn.
In this way he led them to where lay his
now insensible master, and the corpses of his
two comrades. They immediately recognized
them, and perceiving life in the Captain, they
immediately proceeded to form a litter to con
vey him to the fort. This they did by cutting
two long poles, and laying boughs upon them,
upon which they carefully laid his insensate
form, and after hiding the bodies of the others
by the side of a decayed trunk uatil they
could return for them, they started for the
fort. Dr. Tatcher, in his journal, says: "He
was a most frightful spectacle. The whole of
his scalp was removed ; in two places, on the
fore part of his head, the tomahawk had pen
etrated his skull; there was a wound on hie
back with the same sharp instrument, besides
a wound in hie side and another in his arm
with a musket ball.
Of course no hopes were entertained of his
recovery, but contrary to all human expecta
tions, he rallied, and although, during the pe
riod of many months he was stretched upon
an invalid's couch, he suffered a hundred
deaths, yet he did finally recover, and lived a
convincing witness of the barbarity of the sav
age red man. His dog, by whose means his
life had been preserved, was ever-!after his
dearest and most cherished friend.
A VICTIM OF MIRTHFULNESS
CONFIDENTIAL DISCLOSURES OF AN OLD SAID
I may safely say that the organ of mirth
fulness has been the cause of most of the mis
fortunes of my life. While• still a small child,
1 exhibited the propensity of laughing at any
Cuing that struck me as being ridiculous, no
matter when, where, or how it was.
At one time, I went to a funeral with my
mother. It was the funeral of a young lady
very much beloved, and of course deeply la
mented. Every one was in tears, when on
turning towards a window, I saw two men,
sitting side by side, one of whom was noted
fir his length of nose, the other because he
had none. It was too much for my risi
bles—l choked, coughed and sneezed—but it
would not do—laugh I must, and laugh I did.
Suddenly, a shadow fell across my eyes, and
a fleshy hook, resembling a barbed protuber
ance, traveled some distance across my nose
and I heard these words pronounced in my
ear—
'Child, you may be the next victim to the
fell destroyer !'
This completed my overthrow, and my mo
ther, shaking me violently by the shoulders,
took me home, declaring that I never should
go anywhere again till I knew how to behave
myself.
When I went to school, the same fate fol
lowed me. I received more 'reprimands and
more punishments than any other six pupils.
Once, when my teacher had been scolding me,
and was just pronouncing pardon, I looked
up, and perceived the remains of a pinch of
snuff adhering to his nose. Then, alas ! woe
:was me that day.
When our committee came into school, I
was always watching. my master's great hands
and feet, and the awkward way he had of roll
ing his eyes and hanging out his tongue, and
many the whippings. I received over the
school's back. I laughed my way from girl;
hood to maidenhood. At, length there came
a time to me, as there comes to all, when I
was in love. Edward Payson was a youth
whom any lady might be proud to love. He
was gentle and kind, and for a time I was
able to control my laughing genius while with
him. My parents really hoped that I had be
gun to'improve.
One evening he was unusually sober, I un
usually gay. He wished to converse soberly;
I would not, and tried to prevent him from
doing so. As he became more sober and grave
the higher my spirits rose, till at length I was
above the earth—the clouds dancing about in
the broad expanse of air. I leaped from one
airy castle to another, till at length my lover,
tired, and no doubt disgusted, said :
"Amelia, I hoped that you were the one to
control my destiny, one who would be my
companion through life's thick maze—a friend
—a wife. But I see my mistake. I am friend
less and alone, and must remain so. Forgive
me for thinking to tame your wild, free spirit.
You have said it'is useless. I believe it. Fare
well. Hereafter we meet but as friends."
I was amazed—thunderstruck—but he was
gone. I often met him afterwards, but he was
reserved, and I was always gay and trivial in
his presence. Oh, woman thou art an enigma!
When thou feelest most deeply thou seemest
most gay! When thou lovest thou seemest to
scorn !
Then came another lover—light-hearted as
myself. He was always joking—always gay
People said, "what a match !" and looked up
on the thing as settled. One evening he came
to me with a very sober countenance and said:
"Amelia, I have an idea in my head."—
"Don't it feel funny !" said I, which so fright
ened the poor man that ho was unable to fin
ish. In like manner I have stopped two other
confessions. Thus you see that my propensity
for making fun has made me what I am—a
lonely old maid. I have not mourned my flesh
off on account of it, however, but on the con
trary, I have "laughed and grown fat."
But still if some machine could be invented
to keep my countenance while I listened to
another declaration, I would be most happy
to receive both the machine and the declara
tion.
THE BELLE A.ND THE STUDENT.-At a cer
tain evening party, a haughty young beauty
turned to a student who stood near her, and
said—
"Cousin John, I understand your eccentric
friend L- is here. I have a great curi
osity to see him. Do you bring him here and
introduce him to me."
The student went in search of his friend,
and at length found him lounging on the sofa.
"Come, L-," said he, "my beautiful
Cousin Catherine wishes to be introduced to
you."
"Well, trotler out, John," drawled L—,
with an affected yawn.
John returned to his cousin and advised her
to defer the introduction till a more favora
ble tithe, repeating the answer he had receiv
ed.
The beauty bit her lips; but the next mo
ment she said—
"Well, never fear; I shall insist on being
introduced.
After some delay, L— was led up and
the ceremony of introduction performed.—
Agreeably surprised by the beauty and com
manding appearance of Catherine, L—
made a profoundly low bow; but; instead of
returning it, she'raised her eyeglass, survey
ed him from head to foot, and then waving
the back of her hand toward him, i driiwled
out—
"Trot him off, John, that's enough!"

EXAMINATION IN GaAMMAR.—I have been
sendin' my darter Nancy to scool to a scool
master in this naborhood. Last Friday I went
over to the scool to see how Nancy was get
ting along, and I sees things I didn't like by
no means. The scoolmaster was larnin' her
things entirely out of the line of eddycation,
and as I think improper. I set a while in the
scool house and heerd one class say ther les
son. they was a eplellin', and I thot spelled
quite well exceedingly. Then cum Nancy's
turn to say her lesson. She said it very spry.
I was shot! and determined she should leave
that scool. I have heerd that grammer was
a oncommon fine study, but I don't want eny
more grammer about my house. The lesson
that Nancy sed was nothin' but the foolishest
kind uv talk, the ridiclest luv talk you ever
seed. She got up, and the fust word she sed,
was "I love !" I looked rite at her hard for
doite so improper, but she went rite on and
sed : " Thou lovest. He loves !" and 1 reckon
you never heerd such a riggermy-rule in your
whole life—luv, luv, luv, and nothin' but
luv. She said one time, "I did love." See I,
"who did you luv ?" Then the scollars laffed,
but I wasn't to be put off, and I sed who did
you luv, Nancy ! I want to know—who did
you luv?" The scool-master, Mr. McQuillis
ter, put in and said he wood explane when
Nancy finished the lesson. This sorter pacy
fied me, and Nancy went on with awful luv
talk. It got wus and wus every word. She
sed, " I might, could or would love !" I stop
ped her again, and sed I reckon' I would see
about that and told her to walk out of that
house. The scoolmaster tried 'to interfere,
but I wouldn't let him say a word. He sed I
was a fool and I nockt him down and made
him holler iu short order. I talkt the strate
thing to him. I told him ide show him how
heede tarn my darter grammer. I got the na
bore together, and we sent Mr. McQuillister
orf, in a hurry, and I reckon tharl he no more
gramer teechin' in these parts soon. If you
know of a ruther oldish man in your regeen
that don't teeth gramer, we wood be glad if
you wo.send him up. But in the footure
we willioe keerful how we employ men.—
Young scoolmasters won't do, especially if
they teeches gramer. It is a bad thing for
morls.—N. Y. Dutchman.

Correspondence of the Intelligence? & Laneasterian
WASHINGTON, Dzo. 15, 1855.
At the adjournment of the House yesterday,
notice was given that a meeting of the "Anti-
Administration" members would take place
in the evening. The design was to " harmo
nize conflicting interests," and so get hold of
the flesh pots of the House to-day. The meet
ing took place pursuant to notice, and was
very well attended. The participants had a
lively time it ;—they mounted each other, axe
in hand, and chopped away with right good
will, making the chips fly in all directions !
A number withdrew from the meeting, and
those who remained failed utterly to block out
a plan whereby the House might be organized
without further delay.
The House met at the usual hour to-day
-12 o'clock—when various propositions for or
ganizing were submitted and received with
roars of laughter ! There was some sharp
sparring between several members, which af
forded a good deal of amusement to the spec
tators and gave rise to no unpleasant feeling
between the actors.
John Wheeler, of New York, defined his
position—past, present and prospective—in a
rather prosy speech. He denied that ho want
ed to be Speaker, but said the House " might
go farther and fare worse," to which informa
tion the House gave him a tremendous guf
faw!
Mr. English, of Indiana, made an earnest
speech, throwing the responsibility of the
failure to organize upon the majority, and in
sisting that the Democratic side of the House
was not to blame.
Father Giddings responded that if the Dem
ocrats would just march out of the hall, the
majority could elect a speaker on the first bal
lot! This suggestion "brought down the
house !"
A tall, well-dressed, clerical-looking gen
tleman, in a full suit of black, including black
gloves, and whose name I did not know, pro
posed that the North should select a Speaker
from the South, or the South select one from
the North. You may bet all the money you
have out at interest in the hands of delinquent
subscribers, that this proposition was received
with a shout !
Messrs. Marshall of Kentucky, Letcher and
McMullen of Virginia, and others, participa
ted in the discussion evoked by various prop
ositions looking to a speedy election of Speak
er. Mr. McMullen promised to submit aplan
of compromise on Monday.
Two ballots were taken, both of which re
sulted as follows: For Banks, 105 ; for Rich
ardson, 74; for Fuller, 40, and about a dozen
scattering. The House then adjourned ; and
thus endeth the second week of the session, in
which the 61st ballot has been teken without
effect.
SENTIMENTALISM.—MiBs SwiSSl7ellll, in notic
ing the publication of a new love story, says:
All that stuff about woman's love has been said
over and over again a hundred thousand times,
to the great detriment of the best interests of
humanity. There is no kind of necessity for
using the press to persuade silly girls that it
is very romantic and womanly to love a scoun-:
drel—to leave her affections unguarded by
reason and experience,:and drift helplessly in.l
to sin, shame and despair, as an evidence of
her unsuspecting womanhood.
"It is not true that woman's affections are
any stronger or more durable than man's.—
We think the opposite is the case, and that
two-thirds of all the women who pine away or
die of love, do so for the want of something
better to do. Everything calculated to make
lovesickness a feminine acquirement is a great
injury, but to strew the path of the suicide'
with the flowers of poesey and romance, is in'
a high degree reprehensible.
"The best motto to guard young girls through
the mazes of love is, 'Do right, and trust in
God.' A young girl who his done no wrong,
has little cause to mourn over the fickleness
of a pretended lover. Better he shonld change
his mind before than after marriage."
This is the best piece of common sense we
have ever heard uttered on the subject.
Tric WAY lIE WAS FlXED.—"Can yon let me
have twenty dollars this morning to purchas:
a bonnet, my dear?" said a lady to her hu:
band one morning at breakfast.
"By-and-by, my love."
"That's what you always say, my dear; bu
how can I buy and buy without money."
And that brought the money, as one good
turn deserves another. Here wit was so sue
cessful that she tried it again the next time.
"I want fifty dollars, my dear, to get a ne •
dress for New Year's."
"Well, you can't hare it; you called me a
bear last night," said her husband.
--7 'oh well, dear, you know that was only
because you are so fond of hugging!"
It hit him just right again, and she got th
money and something extra, as he left hi.
pretty wife and hurried cff to business.
takes a fortune to keep such a wife as you ar
—but it's worth it."
sEir A Western publisher lately gave no
tice that he intended to spend fifty dollars fo
the purpose of getting up a "new head" fo
his paper. The nest day one of his subscri
hers dropped him the following note: "Don'
do it. Better keep the money, and buy a 'ne •
head' for the editor."
