Thirtii Years' Coptivitly Among the Indians
[Froni the Jackson. Michigan. Citizen, October 131
Thirty years ago, when Jackson was a lit•
tle hamlet of two or three hundred persons,
a young woman, might have been seen, ono
sultry day in August, accompanied by a lit
tle boy five years old, wending her way to
ward a grove in the neighboring town of
Blackman, for the purpose of engaging in
the then common pastime of picking ber
ries. The young woman, after toiling away.
for awhile, became annoyed with the cease
loss importunities of the child, atotsent him
home She thought nothing more of the
mutter till, upon her retuin in the evening,
she was surprised to find that the boy had
not returned. In reply to the queries of the
anxious parents. the gni telated the cireum
stances narrated.above, and added that she
knew nothing of the whereabouts of the
child Day after day rinsed and still the
missing member of that distracted family did
not return, nor could any tidings of him 'be
heard by his agonized parents, Vinally, af
ter every searchingTarty who went mkt to
find the missing one had returned and re
ported their mission fruitless, and after all
hope of ever saeing, their darling boy again
, had vanished, from the minds of the afflicted
parents, unpick - on began to fasten upon- the
young woman, who was a servant in the fam
ily. She again asserted her innocence, and
stated that she knew nothing of the misziog
boy from the time she had sent him home
ward. -In spite of her protestatitma,:how
ever, she was tirrested for the murder-of the
boy; and, incinerated in the - rude look-np
Which had been erected by the early settlers.
Hero she was kept' for a time till it became
apparetit'that no evidence could be obtained,
when she Was "discharged ftonis.ustody.still
asserting, her innocence to the parents of the
child, who loriged for some tidiegs,that would
dispel :the uncertainty which hung over them
like a cloud : , Their hopes, 'however, were
, doomed to .disappointment, as nothing 'eould
be beard from the missing one, end he 'was

DE GEORGE D. PRENTICE.
'Tig sad, but sweet, to listen
o e •• ante-swel
And think we hear the music ,
Our childhood loved so trona .
To gaze out on the eve,
And the boundless, fielsla of air,
And feel again our boyhood's wish,
To roam like angels these;
There are many dreams of gladness
That cling around the past,
And from the tomb of fe •ling '
Old thoughts come thronging fast;
The forms we loved so dearly,
In the happy days now gone,
The beautiful and lovely,
do fair to look upon.
Those bright and gentle maidens,
Who seem° I so foimed for Wins,
Tooglorious and too heavenly
For such a world as ibis!
Whose dark soft et en seem'd swimming
In a sea of liquid light,
And whose locks of geld were streaming
O'er brows so sunny bright.
Like the brightest buds of summer
They have fallen from the stem;
Yet, oh! it is a lovely drenrn.
To fade from earth like them.
And yet the thought is saddening,
To muse on such as they,
And that all the beautiful
Aro passing swift anay!
That the fair ones whom we love,
Crow to each loving breast,
Like tendrils ofihe clinging vine,
And perish where they rest.

LOST AND FOUND
a large and flourishing city. The , solitude
Which formerly reigned on the bank of the
grand river was broken by the meehanic and
- the - artisan, and the air - vesoundedl i with. the
busy hum of industry. Nearly. the old
settlers had passed away, and another gener
ation succeeded them. Among .the many
new Corners was a son in-law of the afflicted.
Mr. J. Z. -Ballard, our fellow-townsman, who
was greatly surprised, a' few, days since, to
learn that the boy who bad long been num
bered with the dead, bad arrived in the
southern part of the State and was making '
ins niries after his famil . The boy - had
grown to be a stalwart nian of , thirty-ave
His countenance had become bronzed by
continuous exposure to the elements, and his
sinewy frame hardened by repeated "adven
tures in the Western wilds. He states that
he had but a dim recollection of- his former
home, but vividly remembered the time when
two stalwart forms with red visages Crossed
his path, snatched him up in their arms,
and carried him off amidst hie piteous odes
for his loving mother. Since that time he
has been constantly with the Indians, joined
them in their hunting expeditions and. fol.
lowed their trail as they journeyed toward
the setting sun. Ho learned to speak- the
language of the Pottowatomies—for that was
the name of the tribe with whom the greater
part of his life had been spent—and in an
swer to hii repeated inquiries. his captors
told him they had stolen him from Jackson
county, and that his name was Willey. The
Indians confounded the name with Filly,
which is the real name of his father. Mr.
Ballard went in quest of the missing one,
and upon arriving at the place where ho had
been making inquiries ; was told . that be: had
gone away, but would return in a few days,
when he will roturn to the limo of his aged
parents, to make glad the hearts of an allot•
ed father and mother.
STAND BY THE FLAG
We know of no incident in the war more
touching, and more consolatory than the fol
lowing, which occurred 'at the battle of Pe
tersburg, July litli,lB6-1 •It tells tho sto
ry of the morals of our army
In the Fifty.seventh Massachusetts, was a
soldier named }Award B Scheeider. ,When
the re r ' , iment was formed he was a student
in thePhillipi Academy, Andover. From
motives of patriotism, against the wishes' of.
hia'friends, he lett the literature of .the an
cients and the history of the past, to become
an actor of the present, and to do what he
could for future good, His father is the well
known missionary of the American Board at
Aiurab, Turkey.
On the march,from Annapolis.though but
seventeen years old, and unaCreustorned to
hardship, he kept his place in the ranks,
from the encampment by the waters of the
Chesapeake to the North Anna, where be
was slightly wounded. The surgeons. sent
him to Port Royal for transportation to
Washington, but, of his own accord he, re
turned to his regiment, joining , in at Vold
Huber. While preparing for the charge
upon the enemy's works, he said to the Chap-
lain
"I intendAa be one of the first to eater
their breastworks."
—T-he-young , soldiet-tried - to - makwhis - words
by leading the charge, He was alines: there
—not quite; near enough to be covered with
clouds of B.lllolurous smoke from the cannon,
whoa he fell 'shot , through the. body. He
was carried to this hospital, with six hun
dred and fifty of his division comrades; but
lay all night with his wound undressed,wait•
ing his turn without a murmur. - The chap
lain looked at the wound.
"What do you think of it ?"
Seeing it was mortal, the ehaplain was
-
overcome, with emotion. He remembered
the last injunction of the young soldier's sis
ter : commit him to your care."
The young hero interpreted the meaning
of those tears—that there was no hope.
"Do not weep," said he, 'it's God's will.
I wish you would write to. my father and
tell him I tried to do my duty to my coun
try and to God."
lie disposed of his few effects, giving ten
dollars to the Christian Commission, twenty
dollars to the Amerioan Board, and trifles to
his friends. Then in.the simplicity of his
heart, said :
"1 have a good many.friends, school•mates
and companions: They will want to know
where 1 am—how. I am getting on. You
can let them know that I am gone and that
I die content. And chaplain, the boys in
the regiment—l want you to tell them to
stand by the dear old flag ! And there is'
my brother in the navy—wtite to him and
tell him to stand by the aig and the cross of
Christ."
The surgeon examined the wound.
"It is my duty to tel you that you will
soon go borne," said he.
"Yes, doctor, lam going home Ism not
afraid to die. I don't know how the valley
will be when I get to it, but it is all , hright
DOW.
Then, gathering up his %Plinio? , strength,
he repeated the verso often sung by the sol
diers, who, amid all the whirl and excitement
of the camp, never forgot those whom they
left behind them—father, mother, brother
and sister. Calmly, clearly, distinctly, be re•
peated the lines—the chorus of the song:
..Boon with angels 111,
Wish bright laurels on my brows
II hnee for my country
Who will care fur slitter now;" ,
The night wore away. Death stole oe,—
lie suffered intense pain, bat not a w urmar

him at a revival meeting at .Natick,

his position by-that poorest of.allexcuses—
the faults of professing Christians. When
ever addressed personally on the subject, as
he had often been by friends from various
parts of the country, he had always felt
himself guilty before God, and yet be had
