Old Mrs Suggs' big red rooster had hardly ceased crowing in nonouncement of the coming dawn, when Simon hack awaited The intractable Bunch. Bcth wore in high spirits—our hero at the idea of unrestrain ed license in fowl-et but Bunch from a mesmerical transmission to himself of a portion of hi: master's de vilitry. . Simon raised himself in the stirrups, yelled a tolerably fair imitation of the Creek war•houp, and shouted— "I'm off, olditud ! remember the .Tark-a hearts!" B 3 .book his little head, tucked down his tail, ran inaeweys, as if going to fall; and then suddenly real;;:d p squealed, and struck off at a very brisk gal ►o►i OA of sight of his old home, Simon became serious —half melancholy. He thought over all the little in cidents of his his frolics with Bill and Ben— {,r .163 neighboring boys and girls—of the doting love of Lie mother; and he couldn't deny to himself that it was sad to leave them thus, perhaps no more to return to thorn. How long, he may have indulged in these so ber reflections is unknown; they were at length inter rufifea, however, by an outburst of laughter, so sudden anorviolent that. Bunch almost jumped out of Iris hide. in a paroxism of fright. 'Now, won't it be great," said Simogi s - Qtfakino alOut "Won't the old 'omen junitp and aputtet, and tear °lnter cap, and break her spectacles!" and Simon roared with the fun visible to his mind's eye. "And Joe edia!" he continued, “won't old Jcd'diah grunt, and cuss, and pray! I think I see him now, with his shirt-tail Hoop-ee, won't th.svoli ever the Boor, and have chick-fits, a dozen at a time! And tlim's Ben--drat it—he'll have every bit of the fun .to himself! But I don't care no how: I knew aitactly how 'twill be---she lays a•kickin', that hit is, etktk hath, busted all to tlinderjiggs; and that's adurnin' over every thing, jest as ef he had the blind-staggers. And Lime-by, she'll sort "'come to, and daddy 'II ax her ef she's bad hurt; and then right away she'll take another one o' them star t icks rind then from that of the kickin',snortin', holler cavortiu. that ever was seen, they du it— ha w! haw! haw! The quick transition from gloomy feeling to furious mirth, woulitporhspa be inexplicable to our readers, unless we mentioned the fact that Simon had, as soon as he rose, stolen into his mother's room and nicely loaded the old lady's pipe with a thimble full of gun powder, neatly covering the salt-petre' with tobacco. It was the scene he thought likely to occur when Mrs Suggs should begin to solace herself with her inatminal ,lte;' which made him laugh so loud ly and SO !nag. Whether the explosion did actually tic•cor, must ever remain a question of some doubt; but -there certainly is great plausibility in Simon's view of thattnatter, which is that everythine, was so excellently arranged, that '•ho'll bed-. 1 if it ili,rnt blow the “id woman within a foot and a half of kingdom come." ll , awever, there are those who do not scruple to de clare that the probability or his escaping the clutches of the old gentleman with the cloven hoof, is exceed ing- minute, ind.Tomient of any mistake in relation to the explosion of the pipe. On this poi we of Cue rse have nothing to say. We ate Captain Suggs' biogra pher. If he be saved, well! If he be not, its none of oar husiness. On such a delicate a question, proprie ty 'will barely allow us the single remark, that should tire Captain fail to slip past St Peter, none but the 'du ly 'qualified' need hereafter to attempt to effect an en trance. II is fit of bluzbter over, it was not lnne before Si mon was qt Bob Smith's Grocery; and here, we are sorry . w say, we lose all trace—of Lim, for the next twenty rears. • Skipping over a score of yearn, then, during which the Captain's head, from close application to 'hectio. logical studies, or some other cause, had become quite gees, we find him in the year of our Lord, 1833, sou;- ly's •tiled on public land un the Tallapoosa river, in the midst of that hig,hly respectable town of Indians, known as the Oakfuskees. There he was, as jolly as Bacchus., with a pretty large family and considerable experience, but without funds, a speculator in Creek hind.. To the uninitiated it may seem odd that a man with nut a dollar should be a land speculator. We other that there is a seeming incongruity in the idea; but have those in whose minds speculation and capital are inseparably connected, ever heard of a process by which lands were sold, deeds executed, and all that sort (tithing completely arranged, and all without once troubling the owner of the soil for an opinion, even in regard to the matter. Yet. such occurrences were fre quent some years since, in this country, and they il lustrate oaK mode of speculation requiring little cash capital. But there were other modes of speculating without money or credit, and Captain Suggs became its familiar with every one of them, as with his own corn-crib. As for those branches of the business re rpriring actual pecuniary outlay, be regarded them as curly fit to be pursued by purse proud cold heads. Any foul, he reasoned, could speculate if lie had the money. But to buy, to sell, to make profits, without a cent in one's pocket—it required judgment, distinc tion, ingenuity—in short, genius. The following is a true account of the Captain's first 'operation:' Shortly after the land office had been opened at Motogontery, a perfect mania fur entering government lands prevailed through the country. Speculators from Georgia and Tennessee, and from older settle ments of the States might be seen dashing along at half-speed, almost any Lour in tweoty•four, towards Montgomery. Many a long and hard race was run by rival lurid-hunters, intent upon the acquisition of the same 'first-rate eighty' or 'tip-top quarter!' Alr! but theirs were 'the times that tried' horse-flesh! But us we were going to say, there was a public house On the road from Captain Silif4s' neighborhood to NVe turnpka, about fifteen miles from the latter place, and double that distance from Montgomer7. At this house the Captain stopped once, in hope of finding prey on the numerous speculators who thronged it almost every fright, going to or returning from the land office. It so chanced on the occasion to which we refer, that the supper-time brought with it no additional guest. to Doahlejoy's table; and the Captain having noth .ing better to do, retired earl• to lied. Ile had hardly fixed himself between the two sheets, however, when t rvo persons rode up to the house. almost simultaneous ly and put up for the night. One of these persons came from the direction of \Vete mplia, the other from the Georgia end of the toad. It was not long before the new-comers, who proved to be old acquaintances, had despatched supper and taken a bed together in a mom adjoining the Captain's. Their bed, hots ever, was close to his, and the cracks of the log partitivn enabled him to catch a rat t of the conversation which risecurred after the strangers bad laid down. From it, Ire gathered the facts that one of the parties was bound for Montgomery, and that the object was to enter a tract of land upon which was a very valuable mill head. He listened to hear the summons, but the speculatorcnly mentioned that it was a part of section 10, leaving the Captain entirely in the dark as to the township and range. "If," muttered he, "I could only get the township and range, I'd mako a cahoot business with old man Doublejoy, get the money from him, and enter the mill shoal whh the twenty foot fall, before ten o'clock to morrow." But though he listened closely, he could obtain no more accurate description of the land, than that it was $ part of section 10. in the eastern part of his own enunty, near D,xld'a store, and valuable as a location for a set of mills. lb learned further that the atran- ger was upprehensive that the agent of a certain com pany would be at his heels by morning, and give him 1 race fur the land. This determined the Cap- it ptiv,tiburg -0, twin how to act, and ho rolled over and went to sleep. By day break next morning the mill shoal man was off. The Captain was 'wide awake,' but said noth ing until his intended victim was fairly gone. Ile then ordered his own horse and dashed down the road at half-speed. By the time he had ridden halfa mile, he overtook the land seeker, whose horde seemed very stiff and slightly lame. "—Mornin', mister," was the Captain's salutation, as ha rode up by the stranger's side. “Sorter airidh this mornin'—judge that horse o' you're is tetched with the founder." "I'm afraid so," was the reply, "Oh, I'll be d—d if you need he afeered of it, mister. It's jest so," said Captain Suggs. "In two hours more he won't be able to step over the but cut of n broom straw." "I hate it worse," said the stranger, "because I'm just now in a particular hurry to get to Montgomery on important business. I would give any gentleman,' ho continued, eyeing the Captain's old sorrel, "an excel lent trade, to get a uag that would do a few hours hard travel." "Oh, I understand—but you need'ot view this hero old animal like you thought —, what did you say your name happened to be? Jones, ehl—well 'squire Jones, I'll tell you on the honor of a gentleman, if you were to 'light from your horse and ley the puffiest hundred dollar bill that ever had a picture on it, across your saddle, I would'nt take 'am both fur old Ball, at this particular time. In four hours I must be in Mont gomery.' "You certainly ITIt/st be going to enter fund from sour hurry." "A body would think so, that 'oohed into the matter rightly. And what's more," said the Captnin, ' it's quite likely there's somebody else after my land, from what I've beam—so I must posh—good morn ing." As the Captain struck his heel's against Ball's sides, Mr Jones seed to grow nervoi.i. '•W here about's does your land he asked. "Up in Tall3pooAv," replied Sungi-; and again lie thumped Ball with his heels. M r JUIICS evidently grow more uneasy. "What part of the countryl••ho asked. "Close to thu Chambers line, not far from Dodd•' store—get alone the Captains answer. "Stop, sir. if you pleaw.—perhaps—l would like— we'd better, perhaps, under'—gaspei M: Jones in great agitation. "To be sure we had," said Suggs, with sang froid. "It's jest as vuu say. But what the devil's the mat. ter with you? are you going to take a fit." Jones explained that he thought it likely they were both going to enter the same land. ••W hat did you say was the numbers of yours?" he asked. "I didn't mention no numbers as well I now recut• lect," said Suggs, with a bland smile. -flows'ever squire Jones, as it looks like your gear don't fit you somehow, I'll jest tell you that land I'm arter is a d —(1 little, no-account quarter section, that nobody would.have but me; its pour and piney, but has a snug little shole or it with twenty or twenty-five foot fall— and m ty be they'll want tobuild a little IOW(' at Dodd's some of these days, and I mought sell 'urn :kw lumber. Seein' you're pretty much a foot even if you wanted it, I may as well give puts the nos , if I can without lookin' in my pocket hook. It's ten—ten—section ten, township—Oh the number, I never can 113 member— "S E. quarter 10: 22: 25: taint it?" asked Junes, who looked perfectly wild. "Now you got me!—good as four acres—them's the figure-!" said Cain Suggs. the same piece Fin after I'll give you fifty dol lars to let me enter it." "You wouldn't now—would your "I'll give you a hundred." "Try again." "Well I'll give you a hundred and fifty, and not a dollar more," said Jones in a decisive tone. "Let's see—well, I reckon—tho' I don't know— yes, I suppose I must letyou have it, as I cant well spare the money to enter it at this time, no how"—re marked Suggs, with much truth, as his rash on hand didn't atnount to quite one-fortieth putt tit the sum ne• cessary to make the entry. "But we must swap bur. ses. and you must give me twenty dollars to boot." This wAs agreed to, and Capt Simon Suggs receiv. ed the ono hundred and seventy dollars with the air of a man who was conferring a must substantial favor; and made divers remarks laudatory of his own dispo sition while Jones counted the bills and changed the saddles. ..Give my best respects to Col Benson when you see him at the land office, tell him we're all well," said he to Jones as they shook hands. Certes. he did n't know Col Benson from the great chief of the Paw nees—but Suggs has his weakness like other people. Turning his horse's heart homeward, Capt Suggs solioquized somewhat in this vein—"A pretty tolohle fair mornin's work, I should say. A hundred and seventy dollars in the clear spizarinctum, and a horse worth just fifty dollars more than old Ball—that makes about two hundred and twenty dollars, as nigh as I can guess without I had Dulbear along!
