• Natty years ago, while a subaltern, I was sta

Green Snake River, on the north aide of Lake
Huron This now dilapidated stronghold was
originally erected, on a sandy point stretching
out into the lake, in the days of the Indian
wars, and I could fanny its slender garrison of
sharpshooters watching from their loopholes the

On one occasion the news I got massed enough.
My dearest friend was to be tried by court-mar

me himself, but a mutual friend informed me
that, before soothe; month was past, Lowther's
fate would be sealed ; and this month's delay
had only 000arrod in consequence of an impr

" Because the snow will blind our eyes to the

The path, however, was an Indian figure of

some rock, or bunk, or quaintly formed tree.—
But theta, object. datelt vividly in the Indian's

Accordingly, off we started acrom the lake,

For hours the snow continued to fall, as if in

Chingoos and I set to work with our tomahawks
to cut away the branches, until the plaoe BOUM•
what resembled a bower, then, shaking the out
breaches free from snow, we laid them up in soft
piles to sleep upon. In the meantime Shegasbie
busied himself in making a fire and collecting
fuel. We were short of food; for, during the
last day or two game had been unusually scarce.
But we bad euffieieat for the night, sod hoped to
ottaiii more on the morrow, Shegashie having
set Seversl snares round our camp for the small
Arctic hares which abound in those forest', . '
Soon after dark the snow recommenced; end
although we were nnusnally well sheltered,T never
felt cold so intensely as I did that night. I hare
rarely felt more rejoiced than I did when I saw
the early dawn steal over the landscape, and-was
able to rise from my freezing coach and awaken
my companions, who rose looking as eomfortle
as myself—especially Chingoos, who tretabl ,
as if be bad an ague fit. But a little hot coffee
revived him.
Shegashie - went to inspetat Dia mares, and, to
his peat disappointment, his found that they had
not been disturbed, so that there was nothing
for it but to start afresh without breakfast. Just
as we had tied on our snow abees,.a few flakes of
snow, like tiny birds, cameloating between us
and he clear blue sky. They wore true harbin
gers, and within a Jew mietites the clouds began
to gather and the snow to darken the etneterhera
Warned by the past day's experience, we remain

poured down in driving masses; but *e were
sheltered fromits fury. We bad fire, and the
snow settling on the roof glad sides of our bower
mede it warm; so we felt that we bad moire cause
to be thankful than to complain, though we were
compelled to fast.
Before long, Chingooi' indisposition of the.
morning returned, and as the day wore 04 he
eontinued to get worse; until, by evening, it wail
quite evident that be was in the first slap of a
fever We did the bestswe could for him, by
Eking him hot coffee and such other trifling
comforts as our slender stock afforded.
The next morning broke bright-and beautiful;
but it was at orteeteeldeft time poor Ching.**

worse. No , game bad been sailed or shot, and
hunger pangs were becoming very levee. We
were so weak that we could seemly wisp. About
mid-day a hare came leaping by through • the
snow. I shot it, and we dressed it immediately.'

Oo the following moraing we maimed our

without the joyous youth, whose lively jests and
rintit haighter bad echoed among the old tree'.

The Indiana
,greeted each other with grave
courtesy, and the same plite reception was eau
tended to me; but, in spite of all their gravity,
I fancied 1. , perceived a gleans of joy in the wild
eyes of the stranger. No wonder, poor fellow!
I thought. Perhaps be baa pas sed the whole
winter without looking on the humus face. He
belonged to $ party of Indians living far to the
e'en b of Green Snake River, and his dialect was
a great trial to my Indian erudition.
As his path for the next day or two would be
the same as ours, the stranger proposed to join
us. Though I must confess that the sight of his
blankei, caked with filth, made me feel a repug
nance to his company, yet I was too prudent to
object, and afterwards when, we stopped for the
night, and I found that, leaving the fire making
to Bhegashie, he was content to bustle about to
collect fuel, and to assist me in forming our
night's shelter, I felt more charity towards him,
and watt - more resigned to his raising his pile of
branches near my own.
• As we sat, that evening, round our camp fire,
I had a better otiortunity of observing oar new
acquaintance. e was a tall, finely formed In
dian, and more masculine than I bad ever seen
soy of his race. Moreover, there was an unusu
al fierceness in his demeanor, and a strange fire
gleamed from his eye. He took tie tobacco we
gave him, with great pleasure, but he was disap
pointed that our fire-water was all expended.—
However, he did not let that damp his spirits,
but talked on with more than Indian volubility.
Shegashie's stook of news, for which he asked,
was soon exhausted. Poor fellow! be had little
to talk of except his beloved brother, to
whose story the stranger listened with contrasted
brow, but with few iodic/maims of sympathy. In
his turn he treated Shegashie to a number of
amasieg and horrible stories which were current
in the woods. I lost the gist of many of these
by not being able to acnehis language ,--
But there was one I und=somewhat better
than the rest, it was coneeruieg a ver_y_fieree
Indian tinned Munisktfgablhe, (great Blia-nail
ed ttear,) who came from far beyond the Great
Lake, (Superior,) and who, on his return home
from a hunting expedition, had - found his squaw

r ed at the sight, this hero fell upon them single
ha .ded, and took tie scalps of all except one.--
Thi oe had fled; and, ever since, Manoskogajhe
hai pi.47 l ed through the woods, gnashing his
teeth an seeking him everywhere. The missing
Indian 6 shrouded himself in every disguise;
"But all no purpose," said tLe stranger,
savagely, "f Mainiskogahjhe slays every , Indian

his knife at last. '
When, I bad go er the novelty of the strati.

sone:whit weary of LO Indian hyperbole; but
Bbegasbie listened to - slimy word with breathless
attention. I was loujogiug by the fire, more a
sleep then awake, whoo I was aroused by the
metal:raptly deumadiog of my guide if he
hid e ,r seen this redoubtable brave, the great
red.nai bear; to which the young Indian r e .
plied in the negative.'
" Thatl" thundered the savage springing to
his feet. "I am Mamiskopyie!" and iii a

I 'prying upon him in an instant, and seised
his right arm, which by a violent effort he sue ,
seeded ie disengaging. He aimed i deadly blow
at me with' his knife; but I evaded it, and drew
my own., With a yell at his disappointment, he
began to draw his tomahawk from his belt with
the view of hurling it at my head; but I darted
upon hiin, pinioniog his arms. His feet pee

A struggle for life succeeded. The Indian kept

his life had departed. Bot Elbegasbie never

A SNAILS BTOM—Whito is a neighboring
town two weeks since, we stopped et the village
hotel to "warm lip" (without whisky.) The
bar-room- was unoccupied, and.we eat down by
the stove and enjov'ed the pleasure of blazing
hickory. Soon the hotel keeper entered, and
after looking argued (somewhat mysteriously to
us) under the chairs, belittles, &0., exelaimed„
"I don't see where the cuss has got to !" We
thereupon asked him what be was Jooking diet

"Snake ! snake 1" exclaimed we ; there a

said the landlord, 'sl left one here a few minutee

to feel scosiretish• "0, about per feel long,
was the jejoinder. ."And I guess, continued
bonifsee,mhe's ender your seat, or under the

The idea was eleetrimil. We jumped up, and
began to feel the legs of our pantaloons, lest the
varmint bad crawled up them unawares. Next
we put oar hands carefully into the big pockets
of our overcoat, to see if there was a lodger
there. While in this state of trepidation the
landlord exclaimed "here he is," much to our
relief; and looking round, the speaker held the
snake in his hands. We felt not quite safe
now, but our friend assured us his umakestdp
was harmless; sad furthermore, that be 'mild
