Early on tbe msruiag of tbe 23d oi August, IS 1 7, a dje was feeding on Basin mountain. Tbe night bad been warm and showery, and the morning opened in an undecided way Tne wind was southerly ; it is what the deer call a dog wind, having come to know quite well the meaning of southerly wind and a cloudy sky. ice sole companion 01 tne doe was her only child, a charming little fawn, whose brown coat was just beginnicg to be mottled with tbe beautiful spjts wtiicn mates tnis young creature us lovely as tbe gazelle. The back, its father, bad been tbat night on a long tramp acrossthe mjuntaia to Clear Pour), and bad not yet returned ; be went ostensibly to teed on tbe succu lent lily -pads there, "lit feedeth among the lilies until the day break and tbe shadows flee away, and he should be here by this hour : but be cometh not," she said, leaping upan the mountains skipping upon the bills. Clear I'onJ wasto j fr off for tbe young mother to go with her fawn, for a night's pleasure. It was a fash ionable watering place at tbis season among the deer ; and tbe doe may have remembered, not without unea siness, tbe moonlight meetings of a frivolous society there. Bat tbe buck did not come ; be was very likely sleeping under one cf the ledgee on Tight Nippin. Was he alone ? "I charge yon, by the roes and by tbe hinds of tbe field, tbat ye stir nt nor awake my love, till he pleases " The doe was feeding, daintily cropping tbe tender leaves of tbe young Bboots, and turning from time to time to regard ber offspring. Tbe fawn bad taken its morning meal, and now lay curled up on a bed of moss, watching contentedly with bis large, soft brown eyes, every move ment of his mother. The great eyes followed ber with an ailert entreaty, and if tbe mother stepped a pace or two further away in feeding, tLe fawn made a half movement as if to rise and follow ber. Y'ou see bhe was bis sole dependence in all tbe world. But the was quickly reassured when she turned her gaze on him ; and if, in alarm, he uttered a plaintive crv, she bounded to him at once, and with every demonstration of afftcticD, licked Lis mottled (kin till it thene again. It was a pretty picture maternal love on the one part, and happy trust on tbe other. To? doe was a beaut v. and wou.d have been so considered anywhere ; as graceful and winning a creature as tbe sun that day shone on.

There cesses of Panther Gorge 1 es, time enongb. Bat there was the fawn The cry of the honnd was repeated more distinct tbis time. The mother instinctively bonnded away a fe paces ; tne lawn started up, witn an anxious bleat ; tbe doe turned ; she came back ; she couldn't leave it. She bent over it, and licked it, and seem ea to say, "uome, my cnuu, we are pursued: we mast go.? She walked away towards tbe west, and the lit tle thing skipped alter ; ber. it was slow going for tbe sleader legs, over tbo fallen logs and through tbe rasp ing bushes. The doe bounded in ad vance, and waited ; the fawn scram bled after ber, slipping-and tumbling along, very groggy yet on its legs, and whining a good deal bscanse its mother kept always moving away from it. The fawn evidently did not Lear tbe honnd ; the little innocent would even have looked sweetly at the dog and tried to nake friends with it, if tbe brute bad been rashmg upon him. By all the means at ber command the doe urged her young one on, bat it was slow work. She might have been a mile- away while tbey were making a few rods. When ever tne Uwn caught up, he was quite content to (risk about ; be want- ek more breakfast, for one thing, and bis mother wonldn t stand still : she moved on continually, and his weak leg3 were tangled in the roots of the narrow deer path. i febortiv came a sound that threw the doe into a panic of terror a short, sharp yelp, followed by a pro longed howl, caught up and re-echoed by other baymgs along . tbe mount ain Bide. the d e kuew what !that meant One bound bad cangbt ler trail, and the whole pack responded to the 'view halloo." The danger was cer tain now; it wa3 near. She could not crawl on in this way ; tbe doirs would soon be on them. She turned again for flight : the fawn, scramb ling after ber, tumbling over and bleating pitaously. The baying, em pbasized now by the yelp of certain- tv, came nearer, rlisbt with tbe lawn was impossible. The doe re turned and stood by it,, head erect and nostrils distended. She stood perfectly still, but tremblinr. Per haps she was thinking. Tbe fawn took advantage of tbe situation, and began to draw his luncheon ration. Tne doe seemed to have made up her mind. Sibc let him finish. Tbe fawn, having taken all be wanted, lav down contentedly, and the doe licked him for a moment.

So she was; all hu man calculations are selfish. She kept straight on, bearing the baying every moment more distinctly ; she descended tne Blope of tne mountain umil sbe reached the more open for est of hard wood ; it was freer going here, and the cry of the pack echoed more resoundingly in the great spa ces. &he was going doe east, when, judging by the sound, tbe bounds were not far off, though they were still hidden by a ridge, she turned short away to tbe north, and kept on at a goad pace. In five minutes more sbe beard the sharp, exultant yelp of iscovery, and tben tbe deep mouth ed bowl of pursuit Tbe hounds had truck her trail where she turned, and the fawn was safe. The doe was in good running con- ition, the groond was not bad, and sbe felt tbe exhiliaration of tbe chase. or the moment fear left her, and she bonnded on with tbe exaltation of triumph. For a quarter of an hour sbe went on at a slapping pace, clear- ng tbe moose boBbes with bound af ter bound, flying over tbe fallen logs, pausing neither for brook nor ravine. Tbe baying of the hounds grew faint- bebind ber. but she struck a bad piece of going, a dead-wood slash. It was marvelous t) see her skitr ver it, leaping among its. intricacies and not breaking her slender legs; do other living animal could do it. But it was killing work ; she began to pant fearfully ; sbe lost ground; the baying of tbe hounds was nearer. Sbe climbed tbe bard wood bill at a Mow gait; but once on more level, free ground, her breath came back to ber, aod she stretched away with new courage, and may be a sort of coo. tempt cf her heavy pursuers. After running at high speed per haps half a mile further, it occurred to ber tbat it wculd be safe now to a ..! . 9 a w turn to toe west, asa oy a wide cir cuit f cek her fawn. But at that mo ment the beard a sound tbat chilled her heart. It was a cry of a bound to tbe west cf ber. Tbe crafty brute had made tLe circuit ot tbe slash and cut off ber retreat. There was noth ing to do bot to keep on; and on she went, still to tbe north with tbe pack behind ber. In five minutes more she bad passed into a billeide clear ing ;eows and young steers were grsziog there, she beard a tinkle of bell?. Below ber down tbe mount ain sl'ipe, were other clearings, bro ken by pitches of woods ; fences in tervened, and a m?!e or two down lay the valley, tbe shining Ansable, and the peaceful farm hous Tbat way also, her hereditary enemies were. Not a merciful heart in all tbat lovely valley. She hesitated ; it was only for an isstant; she must cross the Slide Brook Valley, if possible, and gain the mountain opposite. She bounded on ; she stopped. What was tbat ? From the valley came tbe cry of a searching hound 1 All the devils were loose this morning. Every way was closed bat one, and tbat led slraight do wn tb9 m oantaia to tbe cluster of hcusea. Conspicuous among them was a slender white wooden spire. The dee did not know tbit it was the spire of a christian chapaL Bat per haps she thought tbat human pity dwelt there, and would be mora mer ciful than tbe sharp teeth of the bounds. In a panic, frightened animals will always flee to human kind from the danger cf more savage foes; They al ways make a mistake in doing so; per haps the trait is a survival of an era of peace on earth ; perhaps it is a I prophecy c tbe golden age of the fa- tare, ice easiness or this in is never fired a gun write hunting songs Tirala the good bishops write war songs Ave tbe Czar. The hunted doe went down tbe "open," clearing the fences splendid ly, flying along the stony pati. It was a beautiful sight But consid er what a shot it was ! If the deer, now, could only have been -caught No doubt there were tender-hearted people in tbe valley who would have spared ber life, shut ber up in a stable, and petted ber. Was there one who would have let ber go back to ber waiting fawn! It is tbe business of civilization to tame or kill. Tbe doe went on ; she left the saw mill on John's Brook to ber right; sbe tnrned into a wood path; as sbe ap proacbed Slide Brook she saw a boy standing by a tree, with a raised ri The dogs were not in Bight, but she could bear them cominir down tbe bill ; there was no time for hesitation; with a tremendous burst of speed sbe cleared tbe stream, and as she touch ed the bank heard the "ping" of rifle bullet in tbe air above ber. Tbe cruel sound gave wings to the poor thing. In a moment Bbe was in the opening ; Bbe leaped into the traveled road. hicb way ? Below her in tbe wood was a load of hay ; a man and a boy with pitchforks in their hands were running towards her. Sbe turned south, and flaw along the street. The town was up ; women and children ran to tbe doors and windows, men snatched their rifles ; shots were fired; at the big boarding- house tbe summer boaders, who nev er had anything to do, came out, and cheered; a camp-stool was thrown from a veranda; someyouog fellows. shoo ing at a mark in the meadows saw the flying deer, and popped away at her ; but thev were accustomed to a mark tbat stood still. It was all so sudden ; there were twenty people ninrflar iKa elAnltfae tt tnimals tbe House.

It was a fearful gauntlet to run. But nobody except tbe deer considered it in' that light.
