mackinac before its commander was APP

on the Niagara frontier, as sort OF mis-
sionary, and murderer. He translated St.

Indian dialects, taking up the tomahawk
on condition perhaps, that the Indians
should turn christians-of his church. Mo-

we cannot but hope that our govern

A Caledonian Courtship.

determined to he rs Adons like in hab,liments

doctor was man who scorned to be though, of
the sect of PerIpa;etcks when he appeared, il

tant event as the present, resolving to be spruce
he took an immaculate shirt, and pnt it not on,
but IN his pocket, prudently considering that in
the action ofrid.ng, its purity might be tsrnish-
ed; to prevent this, he resolved TO put il on when
he should come within short distance of the
scene OF his wishes. When arrived at the settled
distance, the doctor proceeded to disrobe himself
OF his upper garments, still sitting his horse;
his hat, wig. coat and waistcoat were taken off
and lad upon the pummel of the saddle. IN this
critical moment, malignant fate designing, his
faithful Pegasus rece we'd a f. ght from somewhat
