"iTIcrry Christmas."
BY JAMES H. DANA.
Merry it .was in the goodold-days,
Merry in hut and in hall;
When Christmas came with its ruddy bla
And the feast was spread for all.
When the baron bo'd, he took of his gold,
And freely gave to the poor;
And .the rustic hale, he quaffed the ale,
That flowed at the castle door.

A jolly blade, in that good old lime,
Was Christinas, well a day ! ,
His beard was white with the frosty rime,
And his ancient locks were grey.
But iiis eyes were bright, his step was light,
And his brow was free from care ;
He pledged you a cup. that was brimming up
With the good, old ale and rare ! . v ;
Merry it was in that 6cund clay..
As ancient legends go,
When lads and lasses in mirthful play
Kissed under the misletoe.
When children's glee, it was fun to see,
As the Christmas pudding appeared;
And the sire laughed,as his health wasquaffed,
Till the tears ran down his beard.

And thinks no more of the starving poor,
Than he thinks of his well-fed swine.

But the love of cheer is a venial thing,

This order was too much, even for Indian

i " When the girl approached him, Sanders .
was silently endeavoring to prepare, his!
thoughts for a final leave of the world and
its tribulations. The White Fawn paused
a moment, and then addressed him as follows:
." When you were brought to my father's
wigwam, a prisoner, wet, tired and hungry,!

tears of gratitude to her who appeared in your
eyes only an Indian girl, and-then I remmem-

under tone ; and then taking from around his ;
neck a small medal, he told her it was all he
had, and asked her to keep it in remembrance
of him whose last prayer should be for her
j,appu,ess
happin
But this scene had already lasted too long
i for blood-thirsty Black Bird and his followers,
iand the White Fa'wn was hurried away, while
Fawn's curious enquiries as to its meaning,
told her tliat all who wore that mark were
.brothers! And when Sanders, gave her as
the only keep-sake which, lie possessed, his
Mosoiiic mark she saw the emblem upon
one of its sides, and flew to her father with the
glad discovery she had made. The result
has already -been told.
Black Bird led Sanders to his temporary
wigwam on the banks of the Chicago, where
he was supplied with all that Indian luxury
could furnish in the way of food and refresh
ments. The pipe of peace and brotherhood
was smoked ; and a bed of buffulo skins was
offered by Black Bird to him who had so sud
denly been changed from his prisoner to his
guest. But his heart was too full for sleep.
It was throbbing with gratitude and affection
to the generous girl who had now twice thrust
herself between him and a horrible death.
And he inwardly resolved to reclaim her from
: the savage race with whom she was adopted,
and, if possible, learn her history and restore
' her to her friends,
j When he questioned Black Bird on the
subject of her origin, all that the chief was
able to tell lnin was, that ten years before,
he had purchased her from a band of Ottawas
who had brought her prisoner from beyond
the lake; and that from affection to the beau-
tiful child then about five yeare old, he had
adopted her, with all the public ceremonies
of such an occasion among bis tribe, as his'
own daughter. She was then unable to speak
any English except a few detached words,
such as farther, mother, and other house-hold
terms,
, and espicially the word June, which

that another man than himself had asked her .
in marriage the fair being who had so deep a '
hold upon his feelings, he started mechancial-
ly to his feet as if beset with some sudden '
danger. After a moments reflection he ap-j
pealed to Black Bird to know if indeed he
promised the White Fawn to a coward ? ad
ding that Rattlesnake was well known to have
murdered a prisoner, after promising him
protection ; which none but a coward would
do.
Black Bird did not reply to his question,
but in a calm tone asked :
Will my brother wed the White Fawn !
then shall he become my son, and be a great
chief among the red men."
This was granting rather more than would er 0f war, from whence he and his family
have been asked by Sanders. He, however, j were exchanged, in a short time and trans

he would then formerly ask her in marriage
from her fatherj Black Bird.
During the next, and for several succeeding
days, Sanders took occasion to visit the White
Fawn, and to explain to her his feelings, and
his plans for the future. The girl was able to
speak English with considerable fluency, her
lather, who spojee it wen, naving taiien pains
to give her every opportunity to learn that
which he knew was her native tongue, and
with the quickening influence of a warm and j
generous love to aid their utterance they
found no difficulty in making themselves un

stole into nis eyes, as ne repueu:
"Then will Black Bird be alone in tho

Tho jrirl threw her arms around the neck
of the old chief and sobbed aloud. But when'
the first burst of feeling was over, she remin- j
ded him that the Rattleshake who had deman

But thc old chief was too wily a war-
rior to put the life of his daughter in jeopardy,
So he called together, privately, a few confi-
dential friends, and in his own wigwam gave
away hisdaughter to her future husband, while
it was still night; he then went with them
to the lake shore and placed them in his flee-

while he returned, and kept up the prepara
tion for the betrothal.
All went well during the day ; and hun.
( dreds had gathered to witness, at sundown,
. the giving away of the White Fawn.
Jusl as the last irolden ravs of sunset shot
above the horizon, the chief who acted as
j master of ceremonies proclaimed aloud :
"Bring forth the bride!"
But the bride was now more than half way
over the lake, seeking the land of her fathers.
"Bring forth the bride!" repeated the chief,
1 But as no bride came, a suspicion of the truth
' crossed thc mind of Rattlesnake, who was
present, and he immediately rose ; with eyes
flashing with rage, and announced his belief
that the bird was already gone ! He then
in a voice hoarse with passion, told the mul-
titude that the White Fawn should never rest
in the white man's wigwam; and that his eye
should know no slumber till he had sought her
out, and punished the insult which she had of-
fered him in betraying his love and making him
a by-word among the people. The Indians dis-
persed to their quarters and .the jealous Rat-

ceeded in reaching St. Joseph without acci-
(ent. At St. Joseph they found Mr. Kinsie,
the Indian trader, who, with his family and
assistants, had escaped the massacre of the
fort, and been brought by friendly Indians to
this place. From St. Joseph, Sanders and
his affianced bride accompanied Mr. Kinsie
and his family to Detroit, under thc escort of
a well known friendly chief, named Ceandon
nai. At Detroit, Sanders found acquaintances,
who knew him to be a British subject ; and
he soon found means to reach his home, near
Montreal, with his fair companion. Mr.
Kinsie, at Detroit, was given up as a prison-
their way to Detroit, and were ransomed dur-
ing the spring.
On reaching Montreal, Sanders immediate-
y placed his charge in the care of the Sisters
of Charity. And under their kindness and
instruction, she made rapid progress in ac
quiring an education, and a familiarity with
the customes ot civilized lite,
So far, no clue had yet been obtained to
her parentage, or early history. She knew
that she had been some time in the possession
of the Indians, before she was purchased by the
Black Bird; and she was quite confident that
her name had been June. But this was all she
could remember, except that the little gold

before, heard her story. And more from
