Jethro and the captain watched the

ciniiy of the uniuapecting boy, until
they hid satisfied Ihemtelvet ot the ui

assailed had both disappeared, the first
to ferret out hit prey, ana isxa rum oy
urnrise: and the other, without a thought
of what was about to ensue, to try the
Jength or time that he could remain oe
neaih the water without drawing breath.
.Presently two heads approached simul
Uneoujly above water, confronting each
other; and two long breathing sound,
like the blowing of a porpoise, accom
panied by a hurried ejection of watci
from the mouth, freed the lungs of both
-aivimmera at the same moment.
A tlrife of breasting the wsve again
ensued, which betrsyed the earnestness
with which esch sought to outdo the
other. In every thing phjsically
speaking, the Indian appealed lo be su
perior to the boy; His sinewy frame,
'broad chest, aud eat feet were the iden
tical reqiiiaite for a swimmei: while thr
undeveloped form of Isaac, and his pro
traded election in the water, unfiiUd

But though he was not the eq'tal of
the Indian in strength of limb, he wa
superior to him in stratagem, which the

liis time was a practiced swimmer, knew

left the Indisn completely atfault. Tho'
the scoundrel was baffled time after lime
lie returned to the assault so cfien snd
o unrelentingly, that tie succeeded at
last in tiring the boy down. Isaac made
hia last dive, but the Indian anticipated

I'hosc who have a redundancy of bile find them of
the most essential service, and should there be a dc
