D., 1111.10, Cu.4len V The Indians, with their prisoner, Ht. the river at, Meahoppen, and marched through the dense wilder ness, and never stopped once to rest till they reached what is now known as Susquehanna county, not many miles south-west of where now stands the plEasaut little village of Mont rose. It was in the "wes small hours" of the.night; when they, came to a halt. Very weary end .hungry were they all; poor Ztle suffering excratiating pain in the ankles from the effects of he thongs whiph bound him while in the c-pnoe.. His wrists wined too, but he did not mind his suffer ings, as : he was living. in too high hopes of a final release from his cue , mitts to let trivial matters trouble his well balanced brain. The Indians built a large fire, and cooked some venison which they - had 'killed id the after part of the day, and after., gorging themselves, they gave a piece half cooked and well smoked, to 74 , -.ke, who lacked not-an ercallent appetite, the red devils al lowing him to have the iPe of his hands long enough io eat his morsel. Ho wits. then r. bound stronger than ever, for they saw in hi!, eyes a con suming hatred which caused them to, fear him ; though. they ontenrebered b , m four to one, unarmed, as he was. They -tied his hands behind him and his feet together, and then stood his back to a tree and WiChed base body securely to it, end left him in great misers, while they laid them selves down to slumber till day should dawn again. At the first appearance of morning light, breakfast was prepared and eaten, as was their supper, and the march resumed. The party struck the Wyalusing creek $ little way be low Rushville (as now laicism), and then followed the stream 'to a place now called Camptown, in Bradford county; seven miles from W3-alusing, now a thriving little town at the mouth of this stream. Wye!using is an Indian.name, and sjgnifiea " the pleasant hunting grounds." Here they made long halt, and then marched on iu the night time, and berme daylight conducted their pris oner in triumph into the Indian vil lage, located on the flats where now stands the Moravian Monument, some -tiro miles down the Stuque hanna from the mouth of the Wyalu sing creek. The inhabitants of this village had been made acquainted of the captnre of the celebrated bunter, by the two red men svho had been selected for this purpose, and the 'dusky dogs, both young and old, -were on tiptoe 'when Zeke and his four' sne:essful conductors arrived. The prisoner. was placed in a se cure wigwam for safe keeping, and a strong guard detailed for the pur pose of preventing the, brave trap per's escape. , * * * The preparations of the pioneers, who designed to- recapture their much-prized friend, were completed; atid well equipped .t.lley Started on their perilous journey np the Susque hanna. The time consumed in get- ting the company organized, and setting arms and ammnnition and a sufficient amount of food together. was surprisingly short. There were twenty men in all, though several of them were hardly merged into man.; hood. Nevertheless. boys as they were, they really were men in proportions and capabilities for endurance, twq of them being sons of the much es teemed Mr. Hill. A deba a arose among Mr. Hill's neighbors as to-the propriety of let titig both his sons leave home, when he was confined to Me house in a belplesi condition,' but the matter was decided by the loyal and brave family, declaring that they were se care from the attacks of the Indians as long act they kept the gates well barred; "and women were capable," Mies Henrietta Hill remarked,' "of accomplishing more than ilea were generally, willing to allow." _ The father - of this biiive daughter of Wyoming also remarked, "that he felt well pleased that,he was able to fnrniKh two sons to go oii an expedi tion which he tr,psted would. remit i“ the recapture , of - his friend, the trapper; besids , s, he hoped the toys rs ii,ht serve the purpose wbich he re gretted be could not, because rutting ono) arm, viz : suitable revenge for the empty sleeve he must forever MB rill ME MIME ~-_;~ ..a The company was" composed of such men as only are found In a new conntry—berdi, manly, brave, , L-and the only really eccentric ones were the servant Bill and an Irishman .by thuneme of Mulligan;. also Ger man whom we shall introdace here after. S" , ireething of Bill's character is al. ready known to she reader, land' we will only add that he. is quite indis pensable to the pursuing party, as the sequel will show. Their plan was to march directly np the river; fifteen. men to follow the Indian path, and five to go by water canoes, carrying the provisions, extra, ammunition, etc. .!. Arrangements were giadel for the river party to meet those on land at several , convenient points on .tho march, and time keep each company' cognizant of, the other's moiemints. Some fear was entertained by the men that were to go on foot, that the Indians might send forces along the Susquehanna, and in the mountain passes, to intercept their progress; and their fears were not 'without foundation, as the reader abed see. The little heroic band Ind their friends adien.in excellent spirits, and' took their departure jest; thirty hours after Uncle Zeke's' eapture. the time being a little atter midnight, of the night following the attack on Mr. Harris' residence. Nothing worthy of note transpired till the pursuers reacced the valley . , or theta, near where now stands the village of Tunkhannuck. The .Indian village on this flat was not extensive, and Very few warriors could tie was tered, not to exceed thirty-five or maybe forty. Most of them were gone to Wyalusing, to join the tribe iu that ;lice, in contemplation of enjoying the destruction, at the stake, of one of the most E hated whites then known to the red man. The laud party, as well as the men in canoes, were aware of their near proximity to the Indian settlement, and were prepared for any ordinary emergency. The men on foot arrived above an hour before the boats came in sight, and waited the while in secure am bush. Two - runners, Bill awl Mulligan ; ari. , reaent to itiieertain when -the c - noes came iu sight, and raped the Bathe to the party in coueealmOnt. Mr. Harris, who was acting as captain of the company, ordereilrhe scouts to mcva With great caution, lest they s,bould be Surprised aid shot before they had accomplished their mission. They were also or- dered toWarn the men b , y slimel if there was any danger at handl fear ing that the cunning red-skins night he concealed along the Sasquelninna, at tbis point, and euddeuiy pounce upon the Email party and overpOwer them before assistance could be ren d,:red by those iu ambush. The scouts 'reached the Iniat in safety, but as Pat :remarked :to the captain . afterwards, "it was, by the t . lin of their teeth ; four red !devils having chased them fur more than a hal! mile, and they niver t-hould hey been able to Mate their friends agiu but fer :sound fate preserviut ;them, and a right good will to rise! thim - under etch a tryin'ordalo, sure." . There were twelve warriors left to guard the Tankhannock village, and, the four that chased Pat lqulligau and Bill were intercepted by the par ty in concealment, who disctvered tbein Bonn after they gave up the pursuit, which was when eboy came within ginishof of the-men in the ca noes, killing two and inOrtally wounding the. others at - their first fire. We should have, mentioned that• the party in ambush ventured! forth from their concealment, and marched coolly towards the river, agaiia tak ing cover in a clump of willowi near the bank of the stream where the svatenhen would be likely to laud; thus it was they were- able to have sneh a•fair view and short range of ;the Sear Indians who fell byi their 'unerring fire. Only eight warriors were now left to give battle, and no doubt! they were now made acquainted with the strength of the whites, and Would not dare make an open attack. I It was long after midday, and the pioneers were tired and hungry. A camp fire was kindled, and a hearty meal prepared of fisb, venison, and coarse corn brad. All ate heiirtily, and took an' hones rest, nnmores ed, when the captain gave marching 'or dere, and, soon they were marching on towards Wyalnsing. If not hin dered, they .expected to reach the month of Meshoppen creek before another halt should be made.; The reader b , .ing acquainted with the route over which this bravo and hardy band were marching, must give them much credit for indomita ble perseverance, as well as ;great powers of endurance, to travel so many miles inside of twenty four hours. N 9 farther trouble was met with pouf the enemy during the day, save a line skirmishing while passing by the Indian village.

" Nonsense," said his mother, "yon have not seen her for fourteen years. I never went near the detestable old' farm after your father died." - " Nevertheless; I have a vivid reo ollection of Aunt Sibina's kindness when we were there." ' . " Dear me, Fred," drawled Lucille, "don't be sentimental. I wish the old thing would stay at home. I can't imagine what'she is coming hero for." "She is our father's sister," , sAid Fred, "and I 'catinot,find anything surprising in her looking for a wet come amongst her brother's chil dren." - Mrs. Gorham shrogaed her shool ders. If she had spoken her thoughts it would him been: "Fred is so odd! Just like his father." But she only said : "I may depend upon you, ttr-n, to meet your an t, Fred? I will see aboUt her room." It was a source of. great' satisfac lion to Mrs. Gorham that her ctil dren Were all like herself : " One Greeri, every one of excepi, Fred," she Woold:say, c'ongratnlatifig. herself .that the plebeian blood of " Girhain pare, " was not tranwinitti-d in. the features of her elder son Wil bur, or any of the three girl A.

That the money she lived on was .made in soap-boiling, the fashionable huffy ignored entirely. Darling Wilbur had studied law, bat, his first client had not yet appeitted. and Mrs. Gorham suppor'ed him, trusting his fascinations would touch the heart of some moneyed belle. Miss Caldwell-was the present hope., She was her own mistress, an orphan heiress, and very handsome. That she was proud and rather cold, in tnanner,was only an additional charm to Mrs. Gorham, and Lucille, Ara belle, and Corinne, were enthusiastic in their admiration of "Cornelia Caldwell's queenly manner." - Nobody -suspected that Fred, Want, straightforward Fred, hid one secret in his heart, confessed to no living being ; and that secret wait a love, pure and trne, for Cornelia Caldwell—a love that would shut it self closely away from: any suspicion of fortune-hunting, that only drooped and mourned thinking of the heiress.

"How like you are to your fat her I" "I am Fred," ho answered, "I/ear heart ! How yoti've-grown ! Is-your ma here?" " She is salting for you itt home." The good old conutry woman had never had the least doubt of a wariu weleome at her brother's 'house, and Fred certainly confirmed her expec tat ons. He found the old black leather trunk, the b4g, the baud box, the great bulging cotton Umbrella, and put them all in the _carriage without one smile of ridicule._ He made his Aunt go to the restaurant and refresh herself before starting on the long drive home. He listened with respec , fal interest to all the mishaps of the long journey, and kycupathized, with the—" Ruination of every mortal stitch I've gob.
