While reading recently nu account of the fright

awha. termed by Its Junction with the Obit). is cal
led Point Pleasant. and 19 a place of historical
;tote. llrrev the 10th of October, 1774. during
what is known as LorJ Duninore's Witt. was
fought one of the fiercest and most desperate bat
tles that ever took place between the Virginians
Hod their forest foes
Alter thed. battle in in which the In
dians were defeated with great loss. a tort was here
erected by ttce victors. which became a post of
great importance throughout the shilgUltlary scenes
of strife which almost iintneillately followed, ■oJ
which in this section of din country were continued
for many years after that establishment of peace
which acknowledged the United Colonies of Amer
,ica a free and independent nation.
At the landing of the fort on the day our story
opens, was fastened a flat heat of the kind used by
the early nu% igaturs of the Western rivers.
Upon the deck of this boat, at the moment we
present the scene to the reader. stood five individ
uals, alike engaged in watching a group of per•
11011 C mostly females. who woo slowly approach--
ing the landing. Of these fie e. one was a stout.

If:lauding person, and a clear, open, intelligent
countenance; and in the lofty carriage of his head
—in the gleam of has large. bright, hazel eye—
there was something which denoted one of superior
mind ; but as we shall have occasion in the course
of our narrative to fully set forth who and whin
Eugene Fail fax was, we will leave him for the ptes
eut. and turn to the approaching group, Whom he
seemed to be regarding with lively interest.
Of this gruip, composed of a middle awed roan

One whom tile, most casual eye would have to I .

ller traveling costume—a fi brown habit. high
in the writ, buttoned closely over the bosom and
' comingliown to her stnallpfetty feet. without trail

and with her riding-c 4 and its waving ostrich
plume, set gaily above her flowing curls, her ap
pearance contrasted forcibly with" the rough, un
polished looks of those of her sex beside her, with
their linsey bed-gowns, scarlet flannel petticoats
and bleached/ linen caps ,
...
• I ill Blanche,' said uao of the more venerable of
her female companions. pursuing a conversation
which bad been maintained since quitting the open
fort behind them, ' I cannot bear to let you go ;
for it just seems to me as if something were going
to happen you. and when 1 feel that way, some
thing generally does happen.'
' Well, aunt,' returned Blanche, with a light
laugh, • I do not doubt in the least that something
will happen—for I expect one of these day s to reach
my dear Lather and blessed mother, and give them
such au emlurotec as is due from a dutiful daughter
to her parents—and that will be something that
has not happened for two long years at least.'
• But I,dun't mean that. Blanche ' returned the
other, somewhat petulantly ; • and you just laugh
like a gay and thoughtless g;rl, when you ought
to be serious. Because ytti hate emne„safe thus

• You nevertlid know whst it was to frai " pur

repeated, turning to the others.. litanehe Herfrand

' Just like her father " joined AU the husband

commander of the station, and the iniclule-aged
geptleenan mentioned as one of the party ; of ' a
true daughter of a true soldier. fled father. Col
onel Philip Bertrand. God bless him for a true
heart' never did seem to know what it was to fear
—and Blanche is just like hiva.'
By this time the parties had reached the boat ;
and the young man already described—Eugene
Fairfax. the secretary of Blew:he's father—at once
stepped forward, and. in a polite and deferential
manner. offered his hand to the different females,
to assist them on board. The band of Blanche was
last to touch his—and then but slightly, as she
sprung quickly and lightly to the deck—but a close
observer might have detected the slight flush which
mantled his noble". expressive features as his eye
for a single instant met hers. She might herself
have seen it—perhaps she did—but there was no
corresponding glow on her own bright, pretty face,
as she inquired, In the calm ) , dignified tone of one
baying the right to put die question. and who
might also hare been aware of the inequality of
position between bersell and him she addressed :
'Eugene, is everything prepared for our depart

No, indeed !' rejoined her aunt, quickly; ' it
will be as much as your lives are worth to venture
a foot from the main current of the Ohio—for news
reached us only the other day, that many boats had
been attacked this spring. and several loft. with

• No one feels more concerned about the safe po

gene. in a deferential tone ; • •end since our arrival
here. I have left nothing undone that I thought
might possibly add to her security and comfort.'
• That is true.. to My personal knowledge.' joined
iu the uncle of Blanche; 'and I thank you. Mr.
Fairfax. in behalf of my kinswoman. There will,

as you keep in the entreat ; but your watch must
not be neglected for a single moment, either night

to sp• .• ly collect around him quite a little corn

ca e the head and chief; and to supply the wants
his own family and others, and increase his gains
in a legitimate way. he had opened a store, and fil
led it with goods from the Eastern marts, which
goods were transported by land liver the mountains
to the Kanawha, and thence by water to the Falls
of the Ohio. whence their removal to Fort Bertrand
became an easy matter. Tu purchase and ship
these goods, and deliver a package of letters to
friends in the East, Eugene had been thrice dis
patched—his third commissir also extelefiug to
the escorting of the beautiful heiress, with tier ser
vants, to tier new home This last commission had
been, so far executed at the time chosen for the
opening of our 'dory, as to bring the different par
ties to the mouth of the great Kanawha, whence
the reader has seen them slowly floating off upon
the - still. glassy bosom of ' s ine belle of rivers.'
The Jay, which was an auspicious one, passed
without anything occuriug worthy of nous, until
near four o'clock, when, as Blanche was standing
on the fore part of the deck gazing lit the, lovely
scene which surrounded her. she saw a seemingly
flying body suddenly' leave a liiiih of a gigantic
tree. (whose mighty branches extended fur over
the river, and near which the boat was then sway
ed by the action of the current.) and alight with
a creak upon the deck of the boat, not more than
eight feet from tier. One ghince sufficed to show
her-what the object was, and to freeLe the blood
in her veins. The glowing eyes of a hugh patitlnq
met her gaze. The suddenness of the shuck which
this discovery gave her was overpowering. With
a deafening shriek she fell upon her knees and
clasped her hands before her breast The panther
crouched for his deadly leap. but ere he spiting.
the hunting knife of Eugene Fairfax (who, with
the steersman. was 'the only person on .1. bc!

which be was covered was the panther's. not his

treasure—an index of her heart', emotions and
affections. It was to color his home life. as will
be seen iu his progress of our story.
Slowly and silently. save the occasional creak,
dip. and plash of the steersman's oar. the boat of
our voyagers was borne along upon the bosom of
the current, on the third night of the voyage. -
'Ube hour was waxing late, and Eugene, the only
one astir except the watch, was suddenly startled,
by a rough band being placed upon him shoulder
accompanied by the words, in the );ruts' voice of
the boatman :

'Don't you see thar's a heavy fog rising. that'll

clear a minute ago. IVhat is to ne dune now?—
This is something I was not prepared four. on such
a night as this.'
'lt looks ttoublous. Cap'n. I'll allow.' returned
Dick;' but we're in fort. that's sartits, and I
r'pose we'll have to make the best ou't.'
'But what is to be.done?—what do you adviser'
asked Eugene. in a quick. excited tone, that indi
cated some degree of alarm.
'Why, of you war'nso speered about the young
lady. and it -warn't so head agaiu the orders from

one—pd just run over to the Kaintuck shore. and

•No, uo.' said Eugene. positively; 'that will
never do. Dick—that will never do ! I would not
think of such a thing fora moment! We must
keep in the current by all means !'
'Er you can,' rejoined the boatman; •but when it

band in. See, Cap'n—it's thickening up fast; we
can't see eyther bank at all, nor the water nyther;
the stars is gettin' dim, and it looks as if thar war
a cloud all round us.'
'I see! I sue !' returned ugene. excitedly,
'Merciful Heaven ! I hope no accident will befall
us here—and yet my heart almost miagives me!--
for this, I believe, is the most dangerous part of
our journey—the viciuity where most of our boats
have been captured by the savages.'
flaying this. Eugene hastened below, where he
found the other boatmen sleeping so soundly as to
require oonsaderabte effort, on his part, to wake
them. At lastz getting them fairly roused, be in
formed than. almost in a whisper. for be did not
care to disturti the others, that a heavy fag had
suddenly arisen, and he wished their presence on
