"The cannt wolf,.
Scenting' the plaFe of sl:itmliter. Ling
And nin;toOnsive howl, aid 4 ;!;',11r Cond.
iTwas a night of January, 17—,-. We had been
to a fine quilting frolic, about two miles, from our
settlement of four Or five log houses: Twits rather
late—about twelve o'clock,i should guess --when
the party broke up. The - re - Was no moon—and a•
dull, grey shadow of' haze hung around the hori
zon, while overhead a few pale and sickly looking
stars gave us their dull light as they shone through
a dingy•curtain. There were my two .sisters and
Harry's sister and his' sweetheart, the daughter of
Our next, door neighbor. She was a downright
handsome girl—that Caroline Allen. J never saw
her equal, thOugh 1 aid no stranger to ,pretty faces.
Sim was so pleasant and kind of heart--so gentle
•and sweet-spoken, arid 'so intelligent 'besideS that
everybody loved her: She-had an eve as blue as
the hill violet, and her lips were Ills'e a red rose
leaf in.Junei No wonder then that Harry Mason
loved her—boy though he was—fur we had 'lei--
the!. of us seen our seventeenth summer. ;
Our path lay through a thick forest of oak,
with here and there a tall pine raising ili dark full
shadow-against the sky, with an outline rendered
distinct by' the darkness. The snow ) was deep ;
deeper a great deal than it ever. fells of late years; ;
,hut the surface was frozen strongly enough to bear
our weight, and we hurried on over the bright
pathway with rapid steps. We had 'not proceed
ed far, before a Icing low howl Caine to our cars.
We all knew - it in a aliment ; and I i imuld feel a'
shudder thrilling the arms that werMelose to my
own. and sudden cry bMst from the lips of all
of us—mtmWolves ! the wolves!!' 1
Did you ever see a wild w'itlf—not I one of your
caged, broken down, show animal=, which are ex
hibited for sixpence a sight, and children half
price; but a fierce, half-starved ranger of the'win
try forest, howling and hurrying over the barren
snow, actually mad with hunger! There is no,
one of Clod's creatures which has got such a
frightful, fiendish look of this
. artimith • It has the
form as well as the spirit of a demon.
Another, arid another howl; and then we could
hear distinCtly the quick pattei' of fe l et behind us.
We all turned tight about and looked in the three
tion
of the sound.. The devils ,'are after us. said
Mason, - pointing to a lino of dark gliding bodies,
And so in fact'they were—a whole 'troop of them
—howling like so many Indians in.a pow• vow.— I
We had ito weapints of any kind ; rind we knew
enough of the nature of the vile Creatures who
folloived us to know that it would be useless to
contend with them. There was not a moment to
fuse .;• the savage beasts were close upon us. To
attempt flight would have been a hopeless affair,
There was but one chance Of escape arid we in
stantly seized upon it. '
nTo the tree ;• let us climb this tree?" I cried,
springing forward towards a low bt.nglied and
gnarled oak,(Whielt I saw,at a glance might be
easily 'elithYd Into. ,
Harry Mason sprang lightly into the trce,'and
aided in placing the terrified
the
in a place of
comparative security among the thick boughs. I
was.the last on the ..ground„and the whole troop,
were yelling at my heels ,hefozg.l. reached the re.A
of the company. There was one inSinent of hard
breathing and wild exclamations , iiroorig,us, and
then,a feelititi., of Cairn thankfulness for cur e,scape.
'l'ho'night Was. cold. and .we soon nevn to shake,
like so Many sailors on the top=mast of an Iceland
whaler. But there was no unirmur,—no COnt
plaining among us, fur we could•dikincily sec the
gaunt attenuated bodies of the wolVes beneath us,
and every now and then We could' see•great,glow
ing eyes, staring up in the tree v here •we • were
:seated. And thentheiryells—thpy were loud and
long and devilish.
I know'not how long we had remained in this
situation, for we'had no means of ascertainingthe'
ume—when I heard a limb of the tree cracking as
'if breaking down beneath the weight of •soine of
us; • and a moment afterwarda a, shriek went'
throughiy'eara Inie thm piercing of a knife. A
i.
light form went down through , the naked branches,
and fell with a .dull. and 'heavy sound upon the
stiff inow7: -

-. st, was the voice of Caroline Allen., The poor
girl never Spoke again ! There was a horrid diz
ziness and confusion in my brain, and I spoke
not and I stirred not, for the whole at that time ,
,was like an ugly unreal dream., I only cement
tiered that there were cries andihudderingsaround
me ; perhaps I joined them—and there were smoth
ered groans and dreadful hOwlings underneath ! It
was all over in a moment. Pour Caroline ! . She
was literally' eaten, alive! 'The . wolves had a
frightful feast, and they became raving mad with
`the taste of blood. . ~ -
_When Icaine , fully tmmyself—when the truly
hprriblo * dream went off, and it lasted Mit a Tao
men't—l struggled to shake off the nuns of my
lam's, which were clinging. round me, and could
I have cleared myself, , I should have jumped down
aniong, the raving animals. I3st when a, second
'thought cattle over me. I knolk . that any auempt
to rescue would be,useless. As for poor Mason,
~he.sias wild with horror. He had tried to follow
Caroline when ehe.fell but he could not .shake tiff
the gasp of his terrified taster.. His youth and
weak constitution and frame, weresnehle to with
stantr the cireadfpl trial; and he stood close by mir
'side, with'his-handefirmly:clC-nched and his teeth
elosely'iet, gazing down on the dark, wrangling
creatures below, with the fixed gaze of a maniac.
It was indeed a' terrible scene. Around was, the
-thick: cislid.iiight—and below; thp raVerions wild

become
at
at our absence. - They
,Were
shocked at our wild until - rightful oppearance . ; and
my hrothers have often times told me that at fin
view we all seemed -like so many crazed and brain

from the dreadful trial. neglected hiS busi
