Brady's Adventures. GENERAL Huan-TtRADY has stated to us that the subjoined - narrative is substantially The- General, also, - .assures us correct that the child was',not recaptured by •his brother, as he was's° strongly fastened, tar the Indian that he Was, noLable to release; him . and.'save his own life, and that of the. boy's mother. The General also informs us that in . 1837, at Beaver; PennsylVaniq, he became acquainted with a young man o the name of ,StupeS. On enquiry, he had the satisfaction to learn that he was a son of the boy in question. He informed the General that his father remained with the Indians till after the treaty of Greenville, in 1795—that he then returned home, and When the. Beaver country was settling; his. father_purchased the spot where the scene took place, and lived there to the day of his death, Which happened about one year be fore, and now lies interred . on the' very. spot Wherei) . fell'• with the 'lndian Sixty-. one years ago. We find. the narrative in the - ts burgh - American.—Detroit In' 1780; a small fort, within the present limits of Pittsburgh, was the head quarters of General Brodhead, who was charged with the defence of this quaiter of the fron tier. The . country north and west of the Allegheny river was in possession .of the Indians. Gen: Washington;Whose corn prehensive'sagacity had provided against all dangers that menaced, the country, wrote to General Brodhead' to select a suit able officer and despdtelt him to Sandusky, for the purpose of examining.the place and' ascertaining the force of the British and In dithts assembled there, with a yiew-totnea sures 'of preparation and defence, against the depredations and altacks.to be expected froM thence. General BrOilhead had no diflictilty — in making the selection of au Officer, qualified for this difficult and dangerous duty. He sent for Captain Brady, showed. him Wash ington's letter, and a map or .`draft of the country, ,he must traverse ; very defective, as pratly afterwards discovered, but•the best, no doubt, that could ; be obtained at that time. . , Captain Brady was not insensible to the danger, norignorant of the difficulty of the enterprise. But he saw the anxiety of the Father of his courdry to pro Cure informa tion that could ,only be obtained by this perilous mode; .hOd":knew its importance. His own danger was of inferior considera tion. The appointment was accepted, and selecting few soldiers _and four Chicka saw Indians as .guides, he crossed the leglieny river, aiiil was at once in the ene ... my's country.• - It was in May, 1780, that he commenced his march—the season was uncommonly wet... Every' considerable stream Was swollen; neither road, bridge not houie fa eilitated their-marcli,inor•Ahielded their re pose. Part of their provisions was pinked up by - tho way; as (hey - crept, rather 'than marched . ; through the wilderness by.night; -and lay concealed in its hrambles by _day.

They had just returned from Virgjnia or Kentucky with some very fine horses.— One gray 'horse in particular attracted his notice.

He made such observation' through the day as was in his power, waded out' from the island - at night, collected his men, went to the Indian camp he had seen as he came oul ; the squaws were there ; took them prisoners, and continued his 'march home-, ward.

He raised his rifle and attempted to fire, but it flashed in the pan, and he hail not a priming of powder. He sat down, picked die touchole, and then ,started on. After going a short distance, the pathmade . a bend; and- he saw before him a - large 'ln dian on horseback, with a Child before`iiim and its mother behind him on the horse,. and a number of -warriors marching in' the ciear. His first impulse was to shoot the ndian on. horseback, but as lie raised the rifle, he obscrved_the.,..child!s head to roll with the motion.of the : horse. It was fast asleep and tied to the Indian. He steppe , ' behind a tree and waited until he could shoot the Indian, without danger to, the child'or its mother: . • When he considered the chance certain, he shot the Indian, who, fell from the horse, and the child and its mother 'fell 'With ,him.
