' ' Some year afro," said tbe narra tor, "a friend and myself agreed to I take a tramp, hunter fashion, through ! the great wilderness of tbe North : west. Having provided ourselves with what things we thought actual Jly necessary, aud nothing more, we ' started upon our perilous iournev : 1 lT ttat H W'flS PiloUS We Were flll- It aware, and every reader will ad I niit. ! i r,,,, , : iii i -Y'tcr encountering innunierabid t ti: i , i uruips ailtl manV dangers, We found ourselves in the wildest kind of a regioj, many miles distant from tlie haunts of -i vili7ntiin AlecoHir we liad pa,scd through enough to lc l'arr Vtoli, wtiicU gave us have discouraged most men but we r'?hl feLots between us, and qnick as were voung and full of blood, andl!!btD1 we were discharging . the not eailv nut out ,r ft-ip-hf,..! I bis was particularlv the case - with my companion, whose name wrts Andrew Huff. j "Uoth of us were perfectly healthy, j as strong as iron, and considerably ; experienced in the use of such arti i cit s as rifles.pisotls and bowie knives. ! In all ihese respects we could hold ' our own with the best ; hat' it been j otherwise, we should never have j lived to reach the point at which we t finally arrived. ! "Just about dark .ne evening in ' the latter part of July, after a hard day's tramp, we halted for the night. ; A darker, deeper, lonlier solitude jtban that which surrounded us, it I would be bard to imagine. Silently j we built a little fire and supper; si j leiitly we ate it. Worn out, and for I the time being slightly dispirited, we were in no humor for conTersation. "For some time we sat 1t our j camp fire without uttering a single word, anil almost without moving. : I was thinking of home and absent friends, and it is only reasonable to ; suppose that Huff was similarly occu ' pied. ! "After the lapse of some time, our ' fire burnt low, and I arose to replen- l-i :. ipi . l . . i. o , , isu u. i lie nart oi a wone startled me, and I Toluntarily addressed my companion. II off did not answer me, however, but, without noticing the circum stance, I threw a quantity of faggots on the fire and addressed him. "Take a few hours rest, Andy, ami IU keep watch," said I "and after that you can do the same by me." "Still I got no answer, and then I began to notice my companion's un usual taciturnity. "Anvthing the matter, AndT?'' ifcaid I, regarding him closely. No answer ogam. "That's a little strange," I mut tered, moving over toward my com panion. Huff was silting facing the fire, ! with his head bent upon his knees. 1 1 shock him without arousiBg him. Finally, I raised his head, and at j once became conscious that he was soundly, deeply asleep. "Lcughing off the fears which bud for a few moments oppressed nic, I left Huff to enjoy his nap, and settled mVM If down as comfortablv as the . u Circumstances Would Jiemilt. "J n-aa dreadfullv HrOW'r and deepite our jH'rilous situation, despite every effort I made to tbe contrary, I could not entirely resist the over lowering influence of bleep. Occa sionally I started up suddenly, and found that I bad been dozing. The last time I was aroused, 1 was awoke by the bark of a wolf. Jumping to my feet, I 1m. held the fierce animal not a dozen paces distant, his raven ous eyes glaring upon me from tbe darkness. Seizing up a brand, I i flung it at the rapacious monster j with all my strength. It struck him j full in the face, aud witk a terrible 'howl he darted off into the forest. UuJ'Ud not awake, did not even stir, so ouiid was his repose. "After that I did not feel much in clined to sleep, though nothing more was to be rt-eu or heard. I examin ed my rifle and pistols, piled more faggots on the fire, and kept on the move, my eyes and ears open for any more nocturnal visitors. "Some time parsed quietly, and I legan to grow insufferably weary. Ercrv muscle relaxed, and a drow- lev clliruir frsfwlnall v aff,l e m. My eyes closed unconsciously my knees beut beneath me, and I was about dropping to the ground, when I was suddenly aroused by the sound of a uian's voice. "Ih How, fellers, how d'yer do!" were tbe words which fell upon my cars, and arensed me to foil conscious ness. "I looked around in bewilderment. Our little tamping ground was en circled f'T a dozen or more brawnT, fierce looking desperadoes. It was a complete surprise, and on the spm of; .1 . t II 1 l xdc momcni, 1 yenea iona ; "Andy. Andy, wafce up;1 set ESTABLISHED, 1837. PA., WEDNESDAY, MA11CII 1. 187 4. "Yes, wake up, Andy !" echoed the outlaws loudly and dersively. "Aroused at last my comrade sprang to bis feet, aad at the next moment was standing by my side. "Instantly a dozen or more rifles were leveled at us with deadly aim. "Yer ain't goin' to show fight, are ye?" demanded one of the outlaws, a brutal looking wretch, and the leader of the band, as it afterwards appear ed. "That depends on circumstances!" responded Andy, unhesitatingly. "We're two good incn, afraid of neither man or beast and if your in tentions are hostile, as they appear to be, you may take my word for it that we'll give you all the trouble we can." "You won't now, will yer ?' rejoin ed the desperado, tauntingly. "Guess ye'll have your hands full ef yer try that sort ut a game." . "Well, what do you want here, any how?'' I demanded boldly, fully satisfied in my own mind that if we got out of tbe present scrape we had to light it out. ! "What do we want bar?'' was the rapid reply. "I guess the forest's as free to us as it is to any one else. Ion't karkulate that you're boss here, stranger, do yer?" "No?'' was Andy's quick reply, and took the words out of my mutb, "nor are you. ISut that's not the point !"' he added ; "what do you want with us?" "Yer inoneT an' ver traps! I'nder- ' stand that sort o' talk, don't ver ?'' I "es, we understand that you'r a gang of thieves and cut throats?" responded Andy fiercely; "but if you get anything from us you've got to fight for it, though we are but two against a dozen. Give 'em a shot, comrade!" added the fiery fellow, addressing himself to me.. "We can't make the matter worse : ' "I thought so too, and raising dit rifle, Andy and myself fired siniulta- neouslT. "Immediately two of the outlaws fell dead to tbe ground, and the rest uttered a concerted veil, that sound ed more fearful than the bowl of the wolf I had so recently driven away. "Now give em the pistols! shout ed Andy, his whole soul in the dead It conflict. Kach of us carried a brace of doub- 'oaus ,u tne laces oi me outlaws. i .. . . r . i . . . i r 1 1 i r ..lav uioi v vi luu ui iuuuo icit ueivie our aim, while we remained uninjur ed, notwithstanding a number of scattering shots whistled around our ears and over our beads. "Now charge upon the thieves J" yelled Andy, in stentorian tones. - "I followed my comrade's lead, and together we charged upon the remaining five outlaws, for that num ber was left. A fierce and bloody fight ensued. Aady performed mir acles, and I did double duty ; but as fate would have it, we were both rendered hurt Ju cvmlat, my com rade by a pistol wound iu bis side, and I by a bowie cut in tbe shoulder. "I knew nothing more after that, for the next moment I became un conscious. When I came to myself, I found I was in a cave, and it was not long before I discovered that tbe cave was the haunt of robbers. This much I learned bv listening, for I could see nothin f fiii l.firvr.t liavfi f fj, V UI llMk HUI VI daT seemed never to penetrate that dismal cavern. It was the gloom iest, chiliest, place I was ever in, and from the bottom of my heart I wish ed myself well out of it. "1 thought of Andv, vou mav be sure, but could see no way of finding out what had become of him. "After a while, however, an old and outrageously ugly Indian Squaw made her aiiiiearancc. She broutrht me food and medicine, and tempora ry light. My wounds had alreadv been dressed. Of course, I was ea ger to question her. "My good woman," said I Tery pleasantly, "I should like to know where I am will you tell me ?" "She shook her head neirativclv. and to all I could say or do 1 got no other answer. I inquired about An dy, and other matters, but received no satisfaction finally i gave up in dispair, aud let the old hag go. "A week passed, and I was com paratively well. About the expira tion of that time, the old squaw came to me one day and beckoned me to follow her. Having no reason to re fuse obedience, I complied with her directions, aud after traversing a nnmber of dark passages found my self iu the open air. It was a bright and suncy morning, and despite my situation, I inhaled the pure atmos phere with delight. "Assembled on the spot I beheld a gang of a score or more of the worst looking men I had ever encountered, and in the midst my friend and com rade Andrew Huff. Andy looked frightfully pale and emaciated, and apjieared to have suffered much more thau myself. We bad barely time to greet each other, and say, "Uod bless you, comrade !" when we were sud denly and roughly seized and gag ged. At the same time one of tbe outlaws, whom I at once recognised as the leader of the party we had first encountered, stepped forward aud addressed us. "Now, cuss yer !" he cried passion ately, "we'll make you pay for your hard work t'other night Strip "em!" "In a few moments we were strip ped to the skin, and we had neither the power to resist or expostulate. "We were separately led to the brink of a chasm near, and made to look down into the almost unfathom able depths. A stream of water dashed along over the rocks at tbe bottom. It made me dizzy to look down. We were then stationed a few feet from the brink, with a guard over us. I began to comprehend that some frightful death twaited us, and my feelings were fearful. "A plank about a dozen feet long and a foot wide was then brought for ward and placed half way over the j precipice. My blood ran cold at tbe preparations.

"Carry the rsan!" shonted the lea der madly. Despite his struggles, Andy was picked op and carried to the plank. As the outlaws let him down they gave him a Tiolent pu.-h which sent him forward to the end of the plank. Andy swayed from side to side, and struggled wildlr to regain his bal ance. He failed, however, and fell OTer in his fall desperately clutching the plank. There he heid with his finger nails buried in the wood.

Thousands attend church every Lord's day and gire at tention by hearing the gospel, but comparatively few do what the Lord has commanded. A very intelli gent lady remarked in my hearing a few days since, that "too many pro fessed christians think they have done their whole duty by going to church and hearing a sermon." We must sadly confess that what the good lady has said is too often true. Men even go so far as to hear and understand and believe, and yet fail to do what the Lord has command ed, and by such fnilue lose the re ward promised U) the obedient. In many churches a preacher is cmploved to do the preacljiriir, and the members think they have done ', tneir wtiole duty when they have pa tiently heard what the preacher has to say. Thousands of sinners here, understand and possiblT believe, aud yet do not obey God. Such sinners are as sure of condemnation as that j there is a day of judgment. If professed christians simplv hear, j understand and believe, they are not j a whit better than sinner's of the I . .... . world, who do the same thing aud do , ... . ... I no more. We must bear, and ir we j do not heed we must be lost. But j we may hear and still be lo.-t unless we do.' To hear, understand, be- j Iieve and obev.is the sum of chris- tian dutT. thousands mav have their names recorded on the church book, may give liberally to the church, may attend church, hear, understand, believe, and yet lie cou deniLed because they have not done the will of the Lord. The first converts to the christain religion earnestly inquire what they must do. The great I'a ul also inqui red of the Lord what he mu.-t do. The question is not so much, what must I hear, and what must 1 be lieve? but what must I do? The great est number of men in this country, no doubt, have heard and lielieved, but have yet to be convinced that they must do. The moralist expects to be saved through Christ without doing the will of God. The Univcr salist also bears, understands, aud belieTes that Jesus is the Christ, the son of God, but refuses to obey him. ' He will not do. Thousands "of pro-! fessed christians hear, know and be lieve, but will not do. All such pro fessed Christians, together with mor- alisU and Universali.-ts, will be con-1 ing it to cook a few minutes, pour demned in the judgment of the great! ing the whole over these strved-up day for not doing. The glory ot the j scraps. Let it stand a short time life of Christ is io the fact that he went about doing good." "It is written in the volume of the book. Lo, I come to do thy will O God."

May Uod help us not only to hear, but to do his will. Hoping, loving and doing will pre pare us to enjoy this life and fit us for the grand and glorious life aliove. Christian i?mVtc.
