"Why, George, my husband; what means this

The Indian put his hand to his lips In token
of silence ; she led the way to the bedroom where
he laid down his burden, proceeding to undress
him The wound had bled freely, the blood was
clotted over it now file -Eye ulna not allow
her to remove the blood, but bound a napkin

kind care of Eagle Eye, he wu quite well
again.
Mr! Ryerson sent some presents to Blue-Bird;
and sometimes she herself came down from the
anmantain. to visit the "pretty white squaw" and
"little papoose " Mary, in turn, tbugbt her
pretty and interesting, wtrh her clear olive cow •
pletion. low, pure brow, melancholy eyes and
jet black hair So a friendship grew out of what
seemed at first an unhappy accident, the two
families becoming more firmly attached to each
other u weeks rolled on, through the influence
of reciprocal kindness. The first tension steak,
the result of that " double shot," was cooked.
and eaten by the two families in token of amity
and future good will, at the house of Mr. Ryer•
son; one horn of the animal was hung up in the
cottage, one in the wigwam on the mountain, so
a memorial of the strange trent.
Often the newly made friends hunted the deer
together, and as winter melted into spring, and
spring blossomed into summer, their hearts knew
no change of seasons—they remained brothers
in words and deeds.
It wen the morning of July 3d, 1778. The
weather wan extremely sultry. and to aajoy the"
cool of the day, the family at the farm bad risen
early
After partaking of a pleasant breakfast, Mr.
and. Mrs. Ryerson hung ii..tlessly over the table,
discoursing of•the past and future. the tbriviog
nondition of their settlement. and the whole
beautiful valley of the Susquehanna.
It is such a comfort, George, - said the young
wife. "to know that the late unhappy differences
between the whip sail tovies have all melted in•

No smile lightened up the face of the Indian;
George wade shade paler as he picked ap his
bat sod pa, and followed him he knew not
whither, sod Mary grew sad and silent as they
walked :tlowly along the river's aide.
Noon same; the hottest, most suffocating neon
ever known is the miffs/ of the Elusenehassa—
Not a leaf stirred apes the trees, net a osphyr

living thing sought abetter frost his burning rays
under some friendly root or shads tress the very
stones were like heated irons, and the river glow

George Ryerson had not returned, and Mary
looked out front the window boor after boar with
a strange foreboding of evil. Mary prepared
diluter but she merely tasted it, then resealed
herself at the window with tearful eyes. Baby
laid Its velvet cheek aging hers, and looked in
to her face; its little lip quivered, sad the, it
sobbed aloud. With her eye tined upon the
road, she sang it a gentle lullaby, and it fell
asleep.
Hark! what sound is that---that long, loud,
terrifio,,yall? What mean those guns? That
tramping, shouting, crying—that despairing wail.
Hs wbo is absent flies to his home; the boys
come down from the cherry trees; the girls rush
in from the garden, shrieking, clinging to their
mothers' skirts; tht dogs set up a bowl of terror;
the eutle snuff , the wind, and ram bellowing
hither and •
" The /palish! the tones : the savages are
upon as:" was shouted from house to house,
from field to field; it echoed wildly eking the
banks of the river, and reverberated from bill to
hill. The strong men girded on their armor, and
went forth to meet the heterogenous sus of
murderers; the aged sad the sick, timid woman•
hood and helpless childhood remained to weep
and pray
On they came like a legion of fiend', shouting,
cursing, killing; the red maim of the English
mingling with the naked shoulders of the half
clad savages; their tall military asps contrasted
strangely with their shaven heads and horrid
scalping-infix.
" To ,thefort! to the fort!" shouted a neighs
hor, bursting open the door, and instantanantsly
disappearing
" Tn the forty" shouted the frightened servant
shaking her mistress violently to arouse her from
the stupor into which she bad fallen
..T1 the fort' what, Margaret, has he come!
is my husband here?"
" No, no—but the Engliah—tbe tories—tbe
Indians are upon us'' Haste! fly' for Go , r4 sake

Margaret tied on her Wow& hastily wade up
a *mall bawl!e of necessary &Tithing for mother
and bake, wbieb•abe pat into her bands, then
ber*elf taking the child on one arm, dragged her
ont, and along in the direction of Fort Kings
tnn:
Poor bewildered Miry! she awoke to the con
sciousness of her danger, when she found herself
flying over the dusty road, with scores of help
less woman and children, wagons rolling past at
full speed, mounted horses, leaping like reindeer,
with pa's• and hatless riders, all rushing wildly
,e while ever and anon came-the din of the war
hoop, and the shrieks of the sufferer, overtook
by the blood hounds in the rear Mothers and
children fainted and fell, old men sat down un
able to go another step and those whom God
granted strength to proceed, arrived at the fort
over-heated, utterly exhausted. One after an
other tottered in, images of grief and despair.
Inside were a few mattresses, a scanty supply
of provisions, a few cooking utensils; and there
with melancholly thankfulness, they ate the even
ing meal with sickening forebodings of tomor
row. scores arrived during the night; coming
from the mountains and all along the river, until
all the houses and barracks were full; some lay
down to rest, others sat up, watching the fitful
slumberers, as ever and anon they started in their
dreams and murmured prayers to Heaven against
the cruelty of man. Among the watchers was
Mary Ryerson. sitting beside her babe and Mar
garet all night lonl, with folded hands and tear ,
less eyes, and when the stereotyped question of
the sentinel, who's there ?" was asked
at the break of day, she beard it still hoping in
the olden answer, "a friend," to detect the voice
of her husband.
Till night Col Zebalon Butler and his men
!ISt up making strong their defence, running bul•
lets, doing every thing which human foresight
could, for safety. -
Weak and worn they were, but resolved to sell
their lives dearly; and they waited for the coming
conflict with unflinching nerves.
The sun had risen high above the fort, and
stood out in the cloudless atmosphere like a red
ball of fine; not a lest fluttered, not a sephyr
rippled the surface of the clear, calm Susque
hanna; the dried grass cracked nuter the feet of
the kine; the dogs dug holes in the earth and lay
half buried there. Nature herself seemed awed
by some dark fore-shadowing and held her hot
deep breath in•feerfal anticipation.
" An officer end guard," said the men in the
lookout; "John Butler, they continued as they
drew nearer, and new hopes sprang up in many
a despairing heart; so slowly and silet pli a i they
came; surely their visit would bee one.
Halting, they sent a inessmager to say that if
Col. Zebulon Butler would come out to meet his
cousin, he would propose terms of capitulation.
Unsuspicious, not thinking in his own honest
heart that one of his own kinsman could be a
very send, be, aecompined by four hundred men,
went out to meet him.
In the meantime, John Butler and his party
had moved back towards a thicket, and Zebuion
and hie men followed.
" They will halt just within the wood," he
said, "the extreme best of the day causes them
to seek the shade; let as veStare yet farther my
my friends," and they pressed on, till startled
by a wild demoniac yell;--as ambush was upon
them Bewildered, overpowered, they were shot,
stabbed, scalped; a few only escaped by swim
ming the river; none remained to tell the tale at
the fort.
" They are long gone,"
add the lookout;
"long gone," said Colonel Denison, who was left
as oommander, "look gone," was pared from
lip to lip, with fears for their safety.
The soldiers gazed upon their families with
deep yearning tenderness., and mothers upon
their blooming daughters, with the fear which
only mothers can maze; for John Butler and
hi* tory herd were known to be more brutal than
ewes

was a mutative of paisdiss, bemuse Ist eseeekle
woe of desolation.
Through all that night of gloom and day of
horrors Mary Ryerson sat on a low pallet, be
aide her babe sad Margaret, hardly smug for
her own safety dose the fats of her belong one
was nnknows. Bat when the Way belts were
at last unbarred, the aeon swung own, and the
greedy enemy rushed is, she was elmtled by the
cry of her servant, and the terrified w4il of the
babe. Springing from her seat, she Ought up
the little one, limed it to her bosom; and start
ed for the door Pressed dews on all sides she
fell. A mane tory bent hi loathsome
upon her face saying, "fear nothing, I will can
you; will you love me if I will, pretty ow?"
As he stooped to lift her, a tall Indies pushed
him aside, and caught her spin his arms, saying
"hold baby tight." '
Close upon their treats followed a squaw, lead
igg Maragret by her hand, none opposed them,
none questioned.
Sometimes the Indians said gravely as they
passed, "she is yours, Eagle Eye?"
"She is mine," was the lasonie answer
"Whither away with the whits'equaw, my line
fellow?' said John Butler, as ha %landed past
him; "put her in a phut; of safety and some
back: the frolic is not over."
"Take it," said Eagle-Eye putting the baby
1 into the arms of Maragret, the mother reiigning
i it without opposition, and looking up with a
strange bewildered air. Oh the trues of that
day's butchery. Here a hat, there a shoe, here
a torn garment., those the red, red hair. Mercy
veil the sight.
Close under the*lying bank of the river lay
a light minor, silty* loomed it and sprang
in with his oh . the women fo ll owing- The
&z e al
barque shot sway like ill arrow down the stream.
The sun was low; a cooler , braes swept with
lu

paddled away, Bice Bird, the squaw, dipped op
a handful of drops and sprinkled the m is Mary's
face Baby laughed to see the bright showers
se they fell ; and even his mother Mimed his
pelatations with a nionratil smile.
Eagle Eye turned the canoe, and shot wader
the bank; they disembarked in silence and walk
ed on, crossing a narrow strip of land between
the teeltstaiss sod siisw;ped is die Soot of the
bill they all sat down tome.
The Indian put down iiiii burden a few mo
ments, straightened up his tall figure, snuffed
the wind as if renewing his 'strength, he said
"come," as be shouldered poor Mary again. He
took a circuitous path over the mountains, steal
ing along through underbrush and rooks which
seemed too dose to allow a passage.
Onlyonce he crept to the top of a reek, and
looked mourafully back towards Wyoming. The
red dames of the burning fields and dwellings
were curling upwards,. the smoke lay in onedark
moving mass along the horison, the river was
one long line of flame. He groaned, set his
teeth firmly together, drew his hand acmes his
eyes, and said in his heart, "Can the be Chris
tains! Lo, bow they deceive nob other—cane 1
their hypocrisy."
Through that terrible massacre he had abed
no blood, laid rude hands oa none. Burning
with phatne for his tribe, who had thus been de
coyed into treachery, he had met them at the
"Council fire," remonstrating spinal their in
tended eruelt , They could not appreciate his
nobleness of character, yet no man called him
"coward," be the brave of the past, the hero of
many battles He went and returned at pleas%
ure unquestioned, knowing the secrets of their
councils, bound by an In dian's sense of honor
not to betray his people. •
The heavy dew drops fell from the leaves as
they parted them in their way, the shadows lay
heavy upon the rocks.

roek, yet io fettered as to feel no other imposes

an Indian boy and girl; bread, cold meat, sad
fruits were on a rude table beside him.
In a corner lay a buffalo robe and blanket,
upon which Eagle Eye heatowed his burden;
then unbound the prisoner, who folded his wife
and child to his bosom, retuning thanks to
Heaven.
After the massacre was decided upon, Eagle
Eye pondered in his heart hose be might save
his friends. He most not turn informer, and
oome to despise himself, sad he looked upon so
a woman by his ram; perhaps he sad his badly
fall victims to the erne series. He knew too
