nature was above the arts of a etiquette; and
loving one among them all, and only one, she
hesitated not to let her preference be known, not
only to the'Young Eagle that won her heart,
but also to those whose suit she bad rejected.
Among the rejected suitors, one alone so laid
it to heart as to desire revenge He, the Prowl
ing Wolf, was lilted with rage, and took little
pains to conceal his enmity though he manifested
no desire for open violence. Both these young

on., which, far sway in the buffalo plains, bad
sometimes been used in battle; but while Young
Eagle was noble, generous in spirit, and swayed
by such high impulses as a young savage may
feel, the Wolf was reserved, dark and sullen;
and his naturally lowering brow seemed, after
the maiden had refused him, to settle into a
habitual scowl. The friends of the Young Eagle
feared for his safety. He, however, was too
happy in the 'miles of his ehosen bride, to trou:
ble himself concerning the enmity of another,
especially when he knew himself to be an equal
in streegtb and skill
The happy couple were in the habit of meeting
at the top of the mound—Young Eagle armed
with a revolver be had received from a white.—
One summer evening, just as the moon was up.
Young Eagle sought the top of the mound for
purpose of meeting his future bride, for their
marriage was agreed upon, and the appointed
day was near. One side of this mound was a
nuked rock, which for thirty feet or more is
liip.al
most perpendicular. Just o the edge of this
precipice is a foot path, and it a large, flat
sandstone rock form, aco . tent seat for those
who would survey the valley, while a few bushes
are nattered over a part of the crest of the mound
On this rock Young Eagle sat him down to await
the maiden's coming.
In a few minutes the bushes ruatted near him,
and rising, as though to meet her, a totnakawk
dashed by his head, and the next instant be was

brink of the precipice. The eves of the two met
in the moonlight, sod each knew that the struggle
was for life Pinioned its his arm• wore by the
other's grasp, the Eagle frustrated the first effort
of his foe, and them a desperate wrestle followed
io which cash was thoroughly maddened. The
grasp of the wolf was broken, and pleb Instantly
grasping his adversary by the throat with the
left band. sought his weapon with the right—
the nue his knife, the other his revolver In
the struggle the+handle of the knife of the Wolf
had been turned io the girdle, and missing it in
the first grasp, ere he could recover hi. g nip,
the revolver was at his breast, and a bul
let through his heart One flash of hatred
from ',the clotting eye., and the arm of the dying
warrior relaxed; sod as the body sank., the Young
Eagle hurled it over the preeipic', and in his
wrath fired bullet after bullet into the corps, as
it rolled heavily down; and this not satisfying
hi. revenge. he ran around and down the mound
and tore off the scalp of his foe
There had been on witness of thi. combat, for
the young girl did not arrive till its termination,
when her lover was realping the victim. His
life was therefore in imminent danger from the
'justice of the tribe, and the Young Eagle knew
hi s only chance wag to stand upon his defense.—
His chance arose from the custom of the Indians,
that if the murderer escaped the blow of the
avenger of blood--the nearest relative of the
victim—the family were at liberty to accept a
ransom for their kinsman The Young Eagle
at once took his resolution, sustained by an advice
of his friends. Completely armed, he took pos.
session of the top of the mound, which was so
shaped that while be was himself concealed, no
one could approach him by the bay without being
exposed to his fire; and he had two devoted and
skillful allies, which, together with his position,

the Wolf. These allies were big bride and a

JEWISH TRADITION
A Rabbi wait delivering a lecture to his disci
plea, and read the following passage from the
Talmud: "Many a man gives his father costly
viand.; to eat, and yet inherits hell; others set
their fathers to grind at the mill, and in
herit Paradise!" The auditors were as too,
at this sentence, and one of them ex.
claimed: "Is it really positible..o Rabbi?" The
Rabbi replied: "The teachings - of the Talmud
are net deceitful, and ercry man may recsurnite
their wisdom, if they are prop Arly explained; a
certain person once placed a richly prepared dish
before his father: the latter was greatly rejoiced
at the costly meal, thanked big son and said:—
"Dear coo thou bast refre.bed me to day with a
spl ndid meal; but tell me how didat thou come
by it?'" The son looked sternly in his father's
face, and with a harsh voice said: "Old folks,
who canont earn anything. should eat what is
given to them, an i keep silence!" Amas d a t

All were silent, and the Rabbi continu-d:—
'There was another son, who supported himself

it wa s given net that certain inhabitants should
